Wei was soothing Rou Yun's emotions on the side, and the old lady was also thinking of a way to talk and laugh. Rou Yun was amused and blushed in response.

At this time, an old woman dressed in red with a red flower on her head hurriedly broke into the door, and the person who came was the matchmaker Xi mother in the capital.

"It's not that the old lady doesn't want to help, I really can't help!" Xi's mother held a pu fan, and the sweat of the bean was dripping down, and it looked like she was in a hurry.

"You can't blame me for this, I helped me handle the marriage of the eldest son and grandson of the Yue family, and I still want to earn your money." Xi's mother said sharply: "The people in the capital know that I am doing things for the Yue family now, and they have withdrawn the booklet one by one, saying that it is your granddaughter-in-law, and even the marriages of other families have been delayed." ”

"I've sent three dials, you're still not satisfied, as far as your brother's current conditions are concerned, let's lower your horizons, so to say that the girl who made a lot of money to find is willing to marry."

"If your conditions continue to be so high, you have to add money, I have already lost a lot of customers because of the Yue family, and my job will have to be smashed if this continues."

The more she spoke, the more energetic she became, and she didn't notice that the old lady was so angry that she was dragging the cup, trying her best to endure it for the sake of the guests.

Yuefu is a big family, Yue Xun in order to protect the people of Li State, he was seriously injured and had to guard until the last moment, this was originally a young general in fresh clothes and angry horses, but now he was ridiculed as a joke by the people who guarded him, Rou Yun aside, listening to Xi's mother's harsh words, a wave of openness: "General Huaiyuan is the great hero of my Li country, if there is no frontier soldier who forgets to die, how can there be peace in Li country; As the saying goes, draught does not forget to dig wells, my mother thinks that today's peaceful and prosperous world is based on cowards, is it based on your mouth to say it? ”

Xi's mother listened to the sweet voice before paying attention to the girl beside her, and her eyes suddenly lit up. "What kind of girl is this, she is so gorgeous, but her words are cruel."

"This is the girl who is the shopkeeper of Shou Zhen Pavilion, and she is a guest in the house" Grandma Sun saw that the old lady had reset the tea cup on the table, for fear that Mother Xi would say something to offend people, so she hurriedly reminded her.

"It turned out to be Miss Jiang!" Xi's mother smiled, "I heard the girl's reputation early, and it was really stunning when I saw it today!" ”

There are many lustful people in Beijing, and the shopkeeper Jiang only invites female teachers to teach him on weekdays, so Rou Yun rarely shows up. When Xi's mother saw it today, she suddenly found that this Jiang girl could compare with the famous Shuqu girl in the capital.

"Hey, mom, you're welcome." Rou Yun ignored Xi's mother's praise and nodded lightly, "Mom thinks my words are cruel, but I don't know which sentence goes against my mother's will?" ”

"Why is Miss Jiang so careful" Xi's mother laughed wryly, as if she treated her as a child, and didn't want to waste her words with her.

Seeing that this was a family matter in Yuefu, Wei was afraid that Xi's mother would bully other girls, and was about to come forward to calm down, but was pressed down by the old lady, who had unknown emotions in her eyes, and was staring at Jiang Rouyun at the moment, as if she was expecting something.

Rou Yun is self-contained and calm, not a contentious person, but the old lady is kind to the Jiang family, and she can't sit idly by no matter what, so she raised her eyebrows and swept: "Xi Mother should pay attention to what she says in the future, the two generals of the Yue family are fighting outside, and you are saying this to the left-behind female dependents, and your behavior is already inappropriate; Moreover, General Huaiyuan is a meritorious hero of the Li State called by the Holy Lord himself, and now you insult the meritorious hero, according to the law, you will be punished with corporal punishment, the old lady is a person who worships the Buddha and meditates on the mind, and she doesn't like to worry about you, and you shouldn't kick your nose in the face. ”

"If you can't take this job, you shouldn't have taken this money in the first place, you can't do a good job with money, but it's someone else's problem, and my mother is really a good excuse."

Xi's mother didn't take her in her eyes at first, but now she was bluffed and stunned, Rao is that she is a famous mouth in the capital, and she is also drenched in cold sweat at the moment, and then looked at the old lady, seeing that her face was stiff and did not help to speak, she was unreasonable, and hurriedly apologized: "What Miss Jiang said is reasonable, I am lazy and lazy... Don't worry, don't worry, old lady! ”

"Xi Mother" The old lady's eyes narrowed, and her voice suddenly sharpened, "How much ability to do how many things, my brother is not the turn of a lonely person like you to judge"

"Old lady..."Xi's mother suddenly seemed to see the momentum of the old lady's conquest and killing, and she was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

Wei Shi pointed his hand and said sharply: "Don't get out of here yet!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Xi's mother was so frightened that she stepped on her left foot and her right foot and fled out of the door.

After Xi's mother went out, the old lady sat down on the couch like a deflated breath, panting, and a little tired between her eyebrows.

Wei Shi also twisted up his handkerchief, hid his face and cried: "What a good brother I am, I am treated like this." ”

At this time, Chunyu came to the main hall with a bag of broken silver, and saw that the atmosphere in the hall was not right, so he retreated to the side and waited for the old lady to call.

Mama Sun touched her back with her hand to help the old lady smooth her breath, in the end she was an old man over seventy years old, after this incident, her energy was also exhausted, and she smiled bitterly: "Miss Jiang let you see the joke." ”

"Whoever makes a joke can tell at a glance that the old lady is too worried."

The old lady beckoned Chunyu, took the silver from her hand and stuffed it into Rou Yun's arms: "Here are five hundred taels of silver and a little broken silver, take it back and pay off the debt." ”

"That's too much, old lady." Rou Yun was so anxious that she shirked it.

"It's not much, you take it, treat your father, and after paying off the debt, take the rest of the money back to Wu Di to settle down." The old lady had tears in her eyes, "Brother Xun has fallen, although there are still two generals in the Yue family, but the war is tight, it is already too much to support, the nobles have coveted the Yue family a lot, if the Yue family has no use value, I am afraid that even I can't keep myself." ”

"Alas!" The old lady sighed and muttered, "I wanted to give Brother Xun a family affair, he is used to being decadent alone, if there is a well-informed girl guarding him, he may not be able to cheer up, besides... The incense of the Yue family can't be broken, and even Xi's mother can't be found, who else can she find?"

Rou Yun knew what happened to the Yue family, Jingzhong was already boiling, even the childish child often laughed at the lame man with a sentence, and heard that the Yue family was looking for a granddaughter-in-law, but the people in Beijing knew that General Huaiyuan had ruined his leg and hurt his face, and he didn't want to get married......

Jiang Rouyun held the heavy silver tael in her arms, thought about it again and again in her heart, and then said, "I don't know if the old lady and the lady can look down on me?" ”

Old Mrs. Yue and Wei's eyes widened when they heard this, and they looked at the woman in front of them in disbelief, "What does the girl mean?" ”

Rou Yun nodded firmly: "The old lady is as kind to my Jiang family as a mountain, Rou Yun has nothing to repay, I am willing to enter the Yue family as a granddaughter-in-law, and I can serve the old lady when I come; Second, I can get rid of Qu Ke, and I will be quiet with my father, and I hope that the old lady will consider it. ”

The old lady excitedly tugged at Grandma Sun's sleeve, her fingertips turned white and confirmed again, "I heard you right, right?" ”

"Old lady!" Mother Sun was also shocked for a moment before replying: "You heard it right, Miss Jiang said that she is willing to enter the house as a daughter-in-law!" ”

"Good boy, don't grieve yourself." The old lady felt sad for no reason, if it was before, Brother Xun would not be too good for anyone, but now...

"Don't be wronged" Jiang Rouyun shook her head, her tone was soft and glutinous, "The general is the hero of the people of Huaiguo, and the old lady is the benefactor of my Jiang family, which should be my blessing." ”

Seeing that the old lady was still hesitating, Rou Yun didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly stepped forward: "Old lady, you will fulfill me."

The old lady clenched her soft hand, tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, fell on the back of her hand and nodded.

"Miss Jiang..."Wei's eyes were red, his heart was full of thoughts, and he paced and pulled the hem of his skirt with both hands to salute, "Miss Jiang is righteous!" Please bow down to me. ”

Rou Yun hurriedly held Wei's hand, unwilling to accept this gift: "Madame has tormented me, my status is low, and it should be my blessing to marry a general." ”

Wei knew that the woman was comforting herself, and after the accident, she heard many insulting words in front of and behind people, each sentence was like a silver needle piercing her heart, stabbing numbly, she could still use it as gossip and let it go, but in the end, she was overwhelmed like a five-fingered mountain.

"The line has changed a lot, I don't want to leave the hospital, my temperament is very cold, please bear more." After Wei finished speaking, he was afraid that Rou Yun felt that he was helping his son speak, so he hurriedly made a promise: "If you are wronged by him in the future, just tell me, I will stand here to support you." ”

"Yes," Rou Yun nodded slightly.

"Marriage should be decided by the words of the matchmaker at the behest of the parents, good boy, no matter what, you have to agree with your father, don't make your own decisions." The old lady's expression was soft: "You go back and discuss with your father, if you agree, the old man will personally come to the door to hire, ten miles of red makeup, and will never treat you badly." ”

"I know"

Rou Yun chatted with the old lady and Wei for a while, and before leaving, regardless of the objections, only took part of the silver to repay the debt.

"It's a good boy, Brother Xun is blessed."

"Hmm." Wei nodded in satisfaction.

In the evening, Shou Zhen Pavilion Jiang's house

A girl in Tsing Yi looked forward to it, and saw her girl get out of the carriage, and hurriedly took her jacket to greet her: "The girl is back, is things going well?" ”

The name of the pink-clothed maid is called the winter solstice, which was rescued by the shopkeeper and his wife from the tooth dealer on the winter solstice.

"Well, is my father awake?" Rou Yun put on a long coat and handed the silver to the winter solstice.

Dong Solstice took the silver and said, "The master woke up and has been looking for you, and I told him that you went to deliver the goods." ”

"Then I'll go see him now, you can take the money to the account office, and let Uncle He go to settle the account with the merchant." Rou Yun rolled up her sleeves and stepped into the house through the heavy snow in front of the door.

"Huh!"

Rou Yun entered the inner courtyard and saw that the window in her father's inner room was open with a big crack, and she entered the house anxiously: "Daddy, the doctor said that you can't blow the wind, why did you open the window." ”

Master Jiang was closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, when he heard his daughter's voice, he replied with a smile: "Yun'er is back, I can see you at a glance when you come back with the window open, it's more reassuring, where did you go to deliver the goods, but it went well?" ”

Jiang Mian and his wife are deeply in love, and they have a daughter; Shinong businessman, businessman from the previous dynasties is the lowest existence, wife Lan Qing is the daughter of the foreign official Tongzhi, at that time, despite the opposition of everyone, insisted on marrying the self-made poor jingle Jiang Mian, since then broke off the relationship with his mother's family, Jiang Mian has a lot of research on doing business, and finally has improved, but was designed by the Lan family, lost a fine light, Lan Qing used many years of body money to help her husband pay off the debt, and then the two rushed to Kyoto, from the small stall vendor to the later Shou Zhen Pavilion, just when everything was good, Lan Qing due to overwork, died of illness, Jiang Mian did not remarry, and grew up with his only daughter.

Rou Yun made a bowl of tea for her father to moisten his throat: "It's going well, dad doesn't have to worry." ”

"That's good, Yun'er..."Old Master Jiang stood up with his sick body and took out a bag of broken silver from under the pillow: "This is a little savings, you take it to Wudi to find your grandfather to be soft, they will definitely take you in for your mother's sake." Then, without waiting for Rou Yun's reply, he continued: "I know that you are a filial person, and you don't want to leave me alone. But to repay debts, I always have to stay responsible when I look away, and if you are a girl's house, it will make people think crookedly, and I will only be more worried. ”

"Daddy... I've already filled the shortfall, so we don't have to go. Rou Yun wiped away her tears.

"Yun'er! Ahem, ahem, ahem," Master Jiang coughed anxiously, "You won't be able to agree to Naqu Ke..."

"No, my daughter didn't promise him" Rou Yun was so anxious that she knelt on the ground: "My daughter went to Yue's house to ask the old lady." ”
