Chapter 104: The Trend of Profit
Wen Yi almost thought that she had misheard, and stammered and asked again: "Grandmother...... What do you say?! ”
Old Madam Lu was not angry, and repeated the words again before saying: "The marriage contract between the two of you is only half set, no matter what, you must complete the remaining half of the ceremony." The capital and Pingyang are far away, we don't know what the Liu family has done, and you are not in front of your third aunt, with her as a person, I am afraid that I have forgotten all the things that I proposed to you! Since your aunt and uncle are going to return to Beijing with your aunt and sisters, you should go with you to see the world, and then settle your family affairs, so as to save you a lot of dreams at night! ”
Wen Yi blushed, lowered her head, and whispered after a while: "Grandmother is confused, granddaughter...... Even if you go with you, how can you say goodbye to yourself......"
Old Madam Lu smiled: "I will entrust this matter to a reliable person." You don't have to worry, although the Liu family's brother Xing'er has a career, but the martial arts are nothing, even if those big people in the army have the intention to recruit him as a son-in-law, most of them will wait and see for a while, and wait for him to win the Wujinshi. What's more, your third aunt and husband may not want him to marry a good family, isn't it because of this that your third aunt took a fancy to you? ”
Wen Yi's face turned even redder, but it was a matter of her life, and she still had the courage to say the worries in her heart: "I'm afraid that things will change now...... In order to go to the next level, Uncle Liu will like girls from other families......"
Old Madam Lu sneered: "He is already a relative of the emperor, and he has won the trust of the emperor, no matter whether he has been in trouble recently or not, as long as there are nobles who want to marry his family, he is afraid that he may not be willing to be cheap!" After the martial arts incident, no matter how confused he is, he will also see that Brother Xing'er is not a dull person, and he has a grudge against his whole family, if he has a good marriage, wouldn't he rely on it? ! Don't look at him as if he plans to say that he is going to help his nephew grow up, I think he will most likely take a fancy to a family that looks at the scenery on the face, but in fact, he doesn't have any help for his brother! Only in this way can the identity of Brother Xing'er continue to be suppressed, even if outsiders know about it, no one can shake his status in the clan! ”
Wen Yi bit her lip and felt a little resentful of Uncle Liu, who had never met before. After thinking about it, she whispered, "Granddaughter...... I don't know if I should go...... My grandmother is old, and she is too tired to be at home with her younger siblings and take care of the house...... "She was very hesitant to go to Beijing. went, she couldn't let go of her grandmother and younger brother, and if she didn't go, she was afraid that her marriage with Liu Dongxing would change...... She is very conflicted, she has lived two lifetimes, and it seems that it is the first time that she has done so many things for a man that she couldn't even think of before, but she has not forgotten that since she was reborn, her greatest wish is that her family is safe and healthy, and her life is rich and stable. Do you want to leave your family behind and travel far away in order to get a selfish marriage? At this time in my previous life, it was when my grandmother was seriously ill and died, and although everything has changed now, what if something happens to my grandmother's body when she leaves home?!
However, staying and taking care of my grandmother may ...... It means that she and Liu Dongxing have no fate in this life......
She had never experienced this kind of contradiction, and there was a faint pain in her heart, and an emotion spread into her heart. She felt that it should be called "reluctance".
Grandmother...... Eastbound with Liu...... How should she choose?!
Mrs. Lu couldn't help but sigh when she looked at the hesitation, hidden pain and firmness in her granddaughter's eyes, but she was also a little relieved in her heart. She showed a loving smile, took her granddaughter's hand, asked her to sit down beside her, and comforted: "Don't worry about grandmother, Dr. Xiao has only been here twice, I took medicine according to his instructions, and my body has been well adjusted." He's spoken, what are you worried about? The housework is managed by Zhongda and his wife, Brother Kang has always been well-behaved, Brother Shun and Brother Quan are sensible, don't worry about it, Wen Yue has nurses and girls there, how can I be tired? Grandmother promised you that once you feel unwell, you will immediately invite Dr. Xiao to come over, how about it? ”
Wen Yi's heart calmed down a little when she heard this, but she was still a little sullen: "Xiao Lao has been traveling all over the world to practice medicine all year round, how can you rely on him?" If my grandmother is unwell, she should go directly to the city and ask a doctor with good medical skills! ”
Mrs. Lu smiled: "Okay, grandmother will listen to you." Don't worry, Zhongda's family is old-fashioned, you only go for a few months, what can happen? It's for Grandma An's heart, how?! ”
Wen Yi wanted to say something more, but Old Madam Lu lowered her face: "Are you underestimating your grandmother?!" When you're gone, Grandmother won't be able to live?! ”
Wen Yi didn't dare to say anything anymore, so Old Lady Lu softened her tone slightly: "If you have no intention of Brother Xing'er and don't value this family business, don't go!" When you get back next year, your grandmother will find you another family job. Isn't your nie aunt trying to get the strings? It's good to listen to it, maybe it's a good person? A few times ago, the sister-in-law of the fourth aunt's mother's family came to the village as a guest, and also came with your fourth aunt to ask for peace. The Liu family is also a famous family, and it doesn't insult you, but I don't know what the character of that brother is. Anyway, without the Liu family, there will be other good people, I don't care! ”
Wen Yi's face turned red, but this time she was angry. In her previous life, she was afraid of marriage because of mistaken belief in rumors, so she became a monk in anger, and she was away with her master for a few years, and she didn't see the ugly things of wives and concubines fighting each other and husband and wife fighting against each other. Since her rebirth, although she has accepted her fate of marrying for the sake of her grandmother, if she hadn't met Liu Dongxing, she would still be afraid of marriage. It's okay if you marry Liu Dongxing, marry someone else...... She immediately shivered, and her face turned white: "Grandmother! Granddaughters don't marry those people......"
Old Madam Lu patted the back of her hand: "Silly girl, this is sooner or later!" No matter how unwilling you are, you can't stop others from taking a fancy to you! Some feelings are refusal, the Liu family, because your fifteenth uncle and fifteenth aunt went, and the clan is still mourning, so it is just a test of the tone, and it is not explicit, and the grandmother is vague and confused. When your little work is over, his family will mention it again, because of the affection of your fourth aunt, our family will not be able to refuse! is to use the Liu family as a shield, in case the Liu family is engaged to Brother Xing'er in Beijing, wouldn't we be embarrassed?! It's better to plan early. If you listen to your grandmother, you should go out to play for a few months, see the world, and have your own family affairs to be taken care of by others! ”
Wen Yi was afraid and angry in her heart, and then she remembered that her family was no longer the desperate family she used to be, not only did she have an heir to inherit the incense, but she also got back thirty hectares of high-quality land, and even the property in the clan was restored to the annual dividend. The sixth room is now a big family in Guzhuang, only under the long room and the second room, and the wealth may not be as good as the seventh room before the robbery, but there is a fate, and the identity is not ordinary! The population of the sixth room is small, and she is still the only flesh and blood, if she marries, she will be able to get a rich dowry. This alone is enough to attract those who have school-age children in their families!
Wen Yi bit her lower lip, knowing that she must make up her mind this time! Anyway, at least she is willing to marry Liu Dongxing, and since her grandmother has someone to take care of here, she will fight for her future!
Old Madam Lu watched the change in Goddess Sun's color, and finally showed a satisfied smile.
Without further ado, she posted the next day, invited Jiang to come to the door for tea, and then euphemistically asked her to take her granddaughter to the capital to walk around.
Jiang Shi was on his mind, and when he heard this, he was stunned at first, and then overjoyed: "This thing is good!" The second master has already agreed, let me bring the five girls and the ten girls! It couldn't be better to add nine girls! She's fourteen, right? It's time for next year, looking at the shallots as delicate and steady, it's time to say goodbye. Uncle and grandmother, don't worry, I will definitely find a good family for my niece and nephew! ”
Old Madam Lu's heart sank, and she already understood her intentions, but she still maintained a smile on her face: "My nephew and daughter-in-law are bothered, I want to ask my nephew and daughter-in-law to take the nine girls out, but it's not to say goodbye, but it's ...... It can be regarded as a ...... to say kiss" She waved her hand to dismiss the attendant, and then lowered her voice and said: "When the third aunt came back to save her relatives that day, she once said a family affair for the nine girls, and the nephew and daughter-in-law also recognized it, it was the eldest nephew of the Liu family!" ”
Jiang Shi was stunned for a moment: "Brother Xing?!" How could it be him?! After Mrs. Gu returned to Beijing, she didn't mention it to me?! ”
When Old Madam Lu heard this, she stretched her face: "I was about to ask her too!" That day, she mentioned this matter in front of your mother and your fourth and fifth siblings, and she also ordered her brother Xing'er to be close to Jiu Yatou, and she did not shy away from a few juniors. I saw that Brother Xing's character was not bad, so I asked her for Geng Ti, she was good, and then she didn't say a word, until the Liu family left the village, someone sent Geng Ti over, but since then there has been no follow-up! A girl who was waiting for my granddaughter, went to your house with her yesterday, and when she came back, she quietly told me, saying that the girl you brought from the capital was talking about the nephew and daughter-in-law, and the Liu family was about to discuss marriage for her brother. Mrs. Sangu, what do you mean?! insisted that I should do it in front of everyone, but now I want to change my hexagram, and the news has spread, how can we nine girls meet people? ! ”
Jiang Shi's face turned red and white for a while when he heard this, and he said aggrievedly: "My nephew and daughter-in-law have never heard of it!" If the nephew and daughter-in-law knew, they would have come to the door to question Mrs. Gu! That's her mother's family! How could she bully people like that?! ”
Old Madam Lu sighed: "I know that he is from a high family, but at that time, I heard that there were so many people in the third aunt's wife, if there were variables, what should we do if we are called nine girls?" Originally...... I'm not very satisfied with Brother Xing'er, my parents are dead, and I am an only child, so the fortune is too thin. It's just that when the bandits attacked the village, he saved so many of our clansmen alone, and rushed to move the rescue soldiers overnight, the six girls and the little seven were thanks to him, and they were able to get out of danger, it can be seen that he is a stable and reliable child, and I can rest assured that the nine girls are promised to him...... Unexpectedly, it was our Gu family's aunt and wife who had an accident! ”
Jiang's eyes widened: "Is it Hui'er and An'er who were saved by Brother Xing'er?!" Why did I hear that it was the prince of Dongping?! There was suspicion in her eyes.
Old Madam Lu was puzzled: "Where did you hear about it?" The whole clan knows that it is the person who is saved by Brother Xing'er! The prince of Dongping only entered the house later, but because the six girls were frightened, he slapped them, woke them up, and sent them back to your house, which can be regarded as saving her. Xiao Qi was personally sent back by Brother Xing'er, and he stayed by his side for two days and two nights afterwards, until Xiao Qi's injuries eased, Brother Xing'er left with peace of mind! Speaking of this, she showed her dissatisfaction: "That prince of Dongping, just picked up a cheap credit, so he really thought that he was the life-saving benefactor of the Gu clan, and forgot all about the previous refusal to send someone to help our clan no matter what!" If it weren't for him, Lao Fifteen might not have died! One of his subordinates, Captain Luo, wanted to save our clansmen, and he was severely punished, and our whole clan, except for a few who were dizzy, were all scolding him behind his back! ”
Jiang Shi was angry when he heard this: "I see! I didn't know he had beaten six girls! Mrs. Gu actually told me that if it weren't for the prince of Dongping, my children would have lost their lives, causing me to neglect my real benefactor! Then he worried: "I wonder if that brother will be angry with me?" ”
Old Madam Lu smiled: "He is a humble and courteous child, although he is not as talented as Dongning, but he is not arrogant. You are his elder, only he respects you, how can you respect him? ”
"You can't say that." Jiang Shi Zhengse said, "He saved my flesh and bones, I must thank him!" He added, "Since the Liu family has proposed marriage to my uncle and grandmother, then this matter must not be left like this, you must give us an explanation!" Although Mrs. Gu is the housemother of the Liu family, she is also the daughter of the Gu family, how can she help outsiders bully my Gu daughter?! Don't worry, aunt, I'll take care of this! ”
Old Madam Lu hurriedly said, "Don't blame her too much." It is said that this family affair has passed the Geng post, which is equivalent to setting it down, and when the nine girls pass the door in the future, she is both an uncle and an aunt, and she is always an elder, and the relationship is not good. I will let the nine girls enter Beijing with you, you find a suitable time, remind the third aunt's wife, and make the marriage official, just wait for the nine girls to finish, and then discuss the day of the door. I think the third aunt is probably a noble person, and she forgot that her brother Xing'er had already discussed marriage, and there are some of them. ”
The Jiang family didn't know the scruples of the Liu family and his wife about Liu Dongxing, but they guessed from the rumors that the Liu family was probably for the sake of climbing the noble relatives, so they ignored the original family affairs. She has been a clan wife for more than ten years, and her thinking has become a habit, and she has some complaints about her sister-in-law, so she replied with a straight face: "Uncle and grandmother don't have to worry, this matter makes sense for nephews and daughters-in-law!" I secretly decided that if my sister-in-law was really blinded by lard and insisted on treachery, she would definitely say a good family for her nine nieces!
Not to mention how Mrs. Lu and the Jiang family agreed on Wen Yi's trip to Beijing, at this time, in the Zhi Courtyard of the long house, the second master Gu proudly told his wife about the content of his past secret conversation with Mrs. Yu: "Mother has decided to go north to the capital with her sister-in-law, let the five girls and ten girls go with her, and then the mother will choose a good family affair for their sisters in several families." ”
The second wife, Duan Shi, was stunned for a moment, and her face was a little uncomfortable: "But I have already ordered to go and see someone's house...... There is a large family in Kangcheng, the head of the family has been an official to the general judgment, and the eldest son is the same age as the fifth girl, and the second son is one year older than the tenth girl, I think it is very suitable......"
Second Master Gu just waved his hand: "The official eunuchs in Kangcheng, where can they match the family in the capital?!" Don't say more, I've promised my mother. Then he raised the corners of his mouth proudly: "Mother knows that she is wrong, and she has the heart to compensate me, so she promised to help me find two noble sons-in-law." And my mother also said that my eldest brother shirked all day long, just not to find me a good vacancy, and after she entered Beijing, she would definitely urge her eldest brother to pick a good place for me......"
Duan's face changed suddenly.
(Guess why she changed her face?) Ask for pink ~~~)
