Chapter 73: The Second Miss of the Outside Family
Xiangxing returned home, saw that her mother was packing up farm tools in the yard, and stepped forward and said, "Mother, or I should have set up a family affair earlier, and now I will be arrested if I don't make a marriage, I heard that I will go to the stone factory to work as a coolie, and I will really be sixteen years old before I make a marriage, maybe I can't find a good one, and I am fifteen years old this year, won't I have to settle a family next year?" Get married this year, and you can get married next year. ”
At this time, I was busy cooking, Xiangxing suddenly said this, Feng was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped him, "You dead girl, obviously you finished work together and went home, why are you so slow, and the family is still busy cooking, don't you see that I am busy at this time?" What kind of nonsense are you talking about, I'm only fourteen years old and I'm busy getting married, your eldest brother hasn't decided yet, what are you anxious about, and the dead girl is not ashamed. ”
Splitting the head and covering the face is a scolding, Xiangxing went to the stove house with a red face and tears, and thought while cooking, that is, this month, Brother Shang Xuan will definitely set a family affair, and I don't know which girl to decide.
In fact, even if her mother agreed to find someone for her, how could she marry Brother Shang Xuan? I don't know a single big character, but the Hu family wants a daughter-in-law who can read and write.
Xiangxing sighed, this is her life, her childhood sweetheart, but she can't marry, who will she marry in the future?
Just thinking about it, her brother entered the stove house and scolded loudly, "Don't you hurry up, your stomach is starving, I have never seen a lazy girl like you, you can only marry a lazy man in the future, I hope to give more dowry, so that I can say that a good daughter-in-law will come back." ”
Xiangxing said aggrievedly, "Why do I want to tell you about my daughter-in-law as a dowry?" The girls in other people's families have to take away the dowry price. ”
The big head laughed, "Oh, do you really think you're that golden pimple?" also took the dowry away, you are so beautiful, your father and mother have raised you for so many years without effort? Thou shalt not repay them? I am the eldest son of our Liu family, can I marry a daughter-in-law? Hurry up and cook, but don't dream all day. ”
Xiangxing cried, and at the same time scolded her family in her heart, why is she so partial, she has done so much work since she was a child, and there is nothing that goes well, why is it so miserable?
Hu Xiucai has been happy recently, he has been doing family affairs for his son, he has been waiting for several years, and he has finally come to an end, and no one else believes it, he is really worried, he is afraid that his son will not be able to marry his daughter-in-law.
Now that I have a daughter-in-law, I am still so beautiful and diligent, and Shang Xuan has a good eye, so I directly picked such a good one.
Song matchmaker learned the news, and he was also happy for the two of them, and many people in Hu Shangxuan's family affairs were also very concerned, so they wanted to know what kind of girl he could pick in the end, it was already at this time, and they were not in a hurry, and these matchmakers nearby were all worried.
Knowing that Jiang Jingxue gave Hu Shangxuan, Song Matchmaker slapped him and was happy at home for two days.
Hu Xiucai came to ask her to complete this family matter, and let people count the days, February 25 is very good, the six ceremonies need to be completed with the participation of a matchmaker, in the countryside, in fact, no one cares if there is a matchmaker, because it also costs money to invite a matchmaker, and it is a matter of getting married in the same village.
But Hu Xiu is a scholar, and he values these the most, although the two families are so close, everything is in accordance with the rules, calculate the date, and tell the woman's family the date, which also has to let the matchmaker go.
Jiang He and his wife did not question the Hu family's style of acting, this is really valuing Xue'er, otherwise it would be so troublesome.
In a flash, it was February 19th, the weather was very good, the villagers were working in the fields, and spring ploughing would begin in March.
In the middle of the morning, not long after the sun rose, everyone was working hard, and a few strangers came to the entrance of the village, and as soon as they entered the village, they inquired about the Hu family's residence.
Someone showed them the way, and those people went to Hu's house, Hu Xiucai and Hu Shangxuan were both working in the field, and they knew that someone was coming to the house, so they hurriedly went back.
In the field, everyone chatted, "Oh, who's here?" looks so magnificent, it seems to be from a big family, but the dress doesn't look like the master, but like the subordinate below. ”
The other nodded, "It's not like that, I wonder if the young lady of a family has taken a fancy to Shang Xuan and came to discuss it, right?" ”
That person was really right, the father and son of the Hu family returned home, and those people were already waiting a little impatiently, and when they saw them, the person led by them raised a smile again, "Presumably this is Xiucaigong?" ”
Hu Xiucai nodded, "How many dare to ask?" ”
The man smiled and said, "The little one is the steward of the town's Zhang Yuanwai's family, and today is for the relatives of the second lady of my family, I heard that Hu Gongzi is a talent, and has not yet married, my second lady is very admired, the young lady is fifteen years old, and Hu Gongzi is also very compatible, my family members want to let the daughter stay for another two years, but the second miss is to marry, today is to come to the door to deliver the message, and the old lady will come over in person." ”
Hearing this, Hu Shangxuan said directly, "Then you can go back, live up to the second miss's good intentions, I have already made a family appointment, and I will officially make a marriage soon, I'm afraid you will run for nothing." ”
The smile on the face of the leader immediately froze, "What does Hu Gongzi mean by this?" Why haven't you heard the news? is so dignified, and suddenly married? Hu Gongzi, don't talk nonsense! The second lady of my family takes a fancy to it, and it is also the blessing of Hu Gongzi, if the old man finds out that Hu Gongzi is lying and prevaricates, I am afraid that this matter will not end well. ”
Hu Shangxuan smiled, "I really have already made up my mind to live up to the second miss's good intentions." ”
Hu Xiucai also said, "My son is indeed about to get married, you go back, the marriage is decided, how can anyone regret it casually, the second lady of the foreign family must be a good match, my son is a rural village husband, it is really not a good match." ”
Hu Xiucai doesn't like any noble lady, although he is a scholar, he also went to be an official in the first place, but later he had a sense of disgust for powerful people, no matter whose young lady she is, his son is not worthy of such a noble daughter, or a country girl.
Those people were obviously a little angry, and shouted, "I really don't know what to do, the daughter of a foreigner's family, is worthy of you as a rural villager, and you are not worthy?" If you are not blessed, you will be poor for the rest of your life, hum! ”
