Chapter 195: Choosing a son-in-law
Lin Ruoxi looked at her in surprise, "Didn't you fall depressed and sick because your second uncle was going to choose a son-in-law for your sisters in the new examination?" ”
"Huh?" Xie Songhua was stunned again, "Xinke? Test? Choosing a son-in-law? ”
"It was the news revealed in the front yard, it came out yesterday morning, and in the evening it was said that you couldn't get up, and I thought you were sick because you were not happy when you heard the news!"
Xie Di's words made Xie Songhua cry and laugh, "I just wore less clothes when I went out, and I caught the cold for a while, and I just wanted to cover it in the house, I haven't heard about it outside!" ”
When the three of them saw her say this, they were a little stunned for a while, and they didn't seem to know what to say.
Xie Wenyuan reacted, and hurriedly smiled: "I'll just say it!" You see, it's not the kind of person who is easy to keep things in his heart and get sick, how can he be so fragile this time. But what do you think when you hear this? ”
This happened a little suddenly, Xie Songhua thought carefully when he heard the words, and said for a while: "To be honest, I ...... Didn't think about it, but ......"
She paused before saying: "By October this year, I will be sixteen, according to the custom of Daqi, most of the girls' families are sixteen years old, seventeen years old, no matter whether I like it or not, there is a high probability that this year will also be settled."
What's more, there are so many things that have happened in front of me, and I settled down earlier, and I also cut off those rumors outside earlier, compared to the children of meritorious families, I think it's a good idea to choose a reader. ”
Her words made Xie Wenyuan smile and nodded, "Good boy, it's right that you can think so, although it is said that these tests come from all over the world, but since they can go to the step of the general examination and even the palace examination, it means that at least the book is well read."
Being able to enter the examination at a young age means that either he has a very smart mind to achieve such results, or he has a particularly strong family background and has been raised in books and ink since he was a child.
No matter which one it is, it is extremely rare, as long as the mentality is flat, I think it is better than finding a prince and nobleman, and I also think it is good for the second brother to think like this. ”
Xie Di and Lin Ruoxi were both still little girls who had not yet left the pavilion, and their faces were a little ashamed when they heard this.
Xie Wenyuan took the opportunity to educate a few children, "What about this person! The most important thing is short-sightedness, only see the square inch in front of you, some people have some things, it seems to be a brocade of flowers, but they don't know that climbing will fall heavy, the more scenery, the more dangerous. ”
The three young girls all nodded their heads again and again to show that they were taught, and Xie Wenyuan smiled and patted Xie Songhua's shoulder, "Since you are not well, we won't bother you here, take a good rest, come out and walk around early, you don't have to ask people to chew the root of your tongue behind your back." ”
Xie Songhua really listened to her words, and on the second day, he appeared in Shou'an Hall as usual to greet the old lady, his face was radiant, and he couldn't see that he was not at all safe.
"Your second brother is going to come out in a few days, everyone remembers, don't ask him how he did in the exam when he comes back, everyone just talk and laugh and get together, Hengzhi has finished the exam, and after working hard for so long, it's rare to relax."
Everyone hurriedly said yes, Xie Sihua smiled and said: "The ice on Taiye Lake has melted, I heard that the spring flowers on both sides of the strait are also blooming, when the second brother comes out, let's go out and row together!" Charter a boat in advance, and let us be our own family. ”
Yu was about to reprimand Xie Sihua for wanting to make a play, but the old lady smiled and said: "It's the attention of the seven girls, it's time to go out for a walk, now spring is coming, you young people don't stay at home, forget about us, go by yourself!" Just remember not to be naughty. ”
Xie Li said: "Where is the seventh sister thinking about going out to the lake together, this is to celebrate her birthday with all of us!" ”
Only then did the others remember that Xie Sihua was born in February, and then everyone had a lively discussion.
Xie Sihua joked that everyone would give her gifts, and after a while, she said that she wanted Aunt Xie Li's dim sum to be made, and she wanted Xie Dixiu's purse, and then she said that she wanted Lin Ruoxi's incense.
Xie Songhua smiled and said: "It's still me, I won't know anything, the seventh sister wants me to find nothing to ask for." ”
"Then it's impossible for me to let go of the fourth sister you, I've already thought about it," Xie Sihua was honestly unwelcome, "Don't think I don't know, the balm that the sixth sister is applying now is the recipe you gave, I asked her last time, and she also said that it was you who said it, you can't use it casually, you said that it was you who confessed, everyone's skin is different."
I don't care anyway, since the sixth sister has it, then I want it too, you look at my chin, I don't know what it is, this piece is long, and the powder is not good. ”
Xie Songhua really leaned over to look at it when he heard this, "You are shutting up, but it's a little troublesome." ”
When the others heard this, they also looked at it together, and Xie Li hurriedly said, "The fourth sister will also take a look for me, and help me make a recipe for it......"
Xie Songhua smiled and said: "Okay, okay, when I go back, one person and one sticker, don't blame me for not being able to marry if I have a bad face." ”
The girls' house was full of laughter, and the old lady sat on it with a smile on her face.
When the old people are old, they like to see their children and grandchildren rejoicing.
Everyone else was happy, and it seemed that Xie Shuhua, who was sitting there, was a little out of place.
Originally, a few days ago, the sisters were still stumbling with her, especially Xie Li, who had always been afraid that she was used to being afraid, and when she was cold, she would deliberately bring a sentence or two of her words.
But who knows, Xie Shuhua is yin and yang, and she doesn't have a word that can be heard, so now everyone doesn't take her.
Xie Shuhua saw Xie Songhua and the other sisters laughing now, as if they were a small center, and her heart was suddenly angry.
This group of cheap hooves who saw the wind and steered the rudder, now knew that Xie Yuncang and the old lady valued Xie Songhua, so they all went to slap her one by one.
Is she really a miracle doctor? Even if she wants to rub her face, she is really not afraid of disfigurement.
I thought so in my heart, but seeing Xie Songhua like a fish in water, I still couldn't hold back, "Don't be too embarrassed by the fourth sister."
After all, it won't be long before the fourth sister should start preparing to embroider the wedding dress, as far as her embroiderer is concerned, she doesn't know how long it will take to embroider, where is there time for you to study so many recipes. ”
She made the scene cold in the cold, everyone is a girl who has not left the cabinet, now is not the time for the sisters to talk in private, there are still elders present, how can the marriage be talked about like this?
The old lady's face sank immediately, and after so many days, she finally fell on Xie Shuhua's face once, "If you can't speak, don't say it, when did your father or your mother tell your fourth sister about the marriage?" ”
Xie Shuhua didn't have any fear in her attitude towards the old lady, but raised her eyebrows, showing a puzzled look, "Huh? Didn't you even have one? I vaguely heard that my father intended to choose a son-in-law for his fourth sister in this examination.
Before the exam, I saw the fourth sister hiding and talking to a scholar under the corridor, looking very eye-catching, and it was not a relative of our family, and later I learned that it was a test to meet the third uncle, so I thought that my father had given the fourth sister a breath and had already chosen a husband! ”
