The next morning, after Jiang Zhixia had breakfast, he asked Uncle He to go to the dim sum shop and bought a high-end dim sum with a very delicate gift box.

Seeing that the sun was coming, Jiang Zhixia knocked on the door of Aunt Li's house with a dim sum gift box.

Aunt Li came out to answer the door and was very surprised to see that it was Jiang Zhixia.

After all, this is not the case. On weekdays, it doesn't matter how the two families come and go, but now that the two families are talking about kissing, it's a bit presumptuous to come and go.

"Hello auntie. I wonder if there are guests in the eldest lady's house? I came to talk to my aunt, I don't know if it's convenient? Zhixia first asked politely.

"No, there are no guests, if you speak, it's convenient, it's convenient." Aunt Li couldn't help but reply when she heard what Zhixia said.

"I'm here today because I want to talk to my aunt alone if I have some confidants. Please find a quiet place, let's talk well. Jiang Zhixia didn't care about Aunt Li's surprise, and still politely said what she wanted to say.

"This, this... Good. Zhixia come in with me. After Aunt Li was surprised, she led Zhixia to her backyard.

Mrs. Li's house is similar to Jiang Zhixia's house, and it is also a long, narrow courtyard with two entrances. The size and layout of the house are also very similar to those of Zhixia's house.

Jiang Zhixia followed Aunt Li to the corner door of the backyard, looked at the east wing and the assembly hall, and saw that the doors were closed.

Aunt Li saw Zhixia's gaze and hurriedly explained: "Today Xian'er said that there was a gathering of classmates, so he went to participate, and he was not at home, I was the only one at home. It's very convenient to speak."

Aunt Li was too surprised at the door just now, so she didn't think carefully about Jiang Zhixia's words.

Now, after this journey, she can be considered to have reacted.

understood that Jiang Zhixia should have something important to say to her, so he asked if there were any guests at home, and asked if he could find a convenient and quiet place to talk. Therefore, she hurriedly stated that she was alone at home, so that Zhixia could rest assured.

After Jiang Zhixia heard this, he nodded with a smile and said, "I've been neighbors with my aunt for so long, and I've never been to my mother's house, so take a look at my mother's house." ”

has lived here for so long, Jiang Zhixia naturally listened to Aunt Li talk about a lot of past events.

A long time ago, the house of Aunt Li's family and the house of the Zhixia family were owned by the Wei family, and they were the ancestral homes of the Wei family from generation to generation.

Later, when it came to Wei Zhuxian's grandfather's generation, Wei Zhuxian's grandfather was not good at running the family business, which led to the family's gradual decline.

So, the Wei family added a thick and high courtyard wall in the middle of this house and divided it into two courtyards. Sold one of them to a relative of the Wei family---- that is, the old Xiucai family who sold the house to Zhixia.

Relying on the money from the sale of the house, Wei Zhuxian's father studied hard, and when he was in his thirties, he was selected as a lifter, but unfortunately, he did not choose a good official, but after two years, he died of depression.

Wei Zhuxian's grandfather and father are both haunted by the ancestral home.

So, when he was dying, he also taught future generations to take the imperial examination well, and then buy the ancestral house back.

After Aunt Li was widowed, she relied on the money and savings left over from the sale of the house, as well as doing some needlework on weekdays to earn money to support her son's education and become a showman.

After Wei Zhuxian was admitted to Xiucai, he could go to the government to receive silver grain. Their family's talent is slowly getting better, and it can be regarded as more than the upper than the bottom.

Aunt Li led Jiang Zhixia to the small living room in the backyard, and after inviting Zhixia to sit down, she poured her a cup of tea.

Jiang Zhixia put the exquisite dim sum gift box on the table, pushed it in front of Aunt Li, and said with a smile: "It's so close, but I haven't come to Auntie's house to pay an official visit." This little heart, please take it. ”

Aunt Li looked at the delicate dim sum food box, but she was really a little surprised.

"Zhixia, you're too polite. Our neighbors have been neighbors for so long, where do you use such politeness? Aunt Li excused herself, this thing is not cheap at first glance, it is estimated that there must be several taels of silver, right?

"Auntie, don't shirk. I came today to talk to my aunt. Auntie, I will accept it, and I dare to speak. Jiang Zhixia adhered to the idea that many people were not to blame, and insisted on letting Aunt Li accept it.

Aunt Li saw that Xia was so determined, so she accepted it.

"Since Zhixia moved to this alley, he was the first to get familiar with the eldest lady," Jiang Zhixia first played the emotional card, "After I came out of the palace, I didn't know anything about life, and many people didn't understand the world very well." It is also thanks to the aunt's patient teaching that I know those secular etiquette. Fortunately, the eldest lady often mentions it, so that she knows what to prepare in autumn and what to buy in winter, so that she will not be in a hurry when it comes to the season. Thank you so much, auntie. ”

Jiang Zhixia got up and bowed deeply and thanked him.

I hope that I have said so many words of gratitude and made such a foreshadowing, so that I can reduce the unhappiness of waiting for the eldest lady to be rejected from marriage.

Although, if you say your own reasons, you will definitely be able to understand them, but, face, face, the people of the time are really good face.

Aunt Li was a little stunned by Jiang Zhixia's formal set.

Is this trying to please her, the future mother-in-law?

Waiting to marry her, do you want to be better for her?

After all, now, it is natural for a mother-in-law to call her daughter-in-law to serve, and a mother-in-law has heard a lot of about her daughter-in-law.

"Zhixia doesn't have to be polite. Don't worry, our neighbor has been a neighbor for so long, and you know that I am not a wicked person, and I will not trouble my daughter-in-law. Aunt Li hurriedly assured Zhixia.

Jiang Zhixia heard that Aunt Li had misunderstood, and thought that she was trying to please her as a future daughter-in-law, so she hurriedly said: "Thanks to the love of the eldest mother, I hereby also entrust the official media to kiss, for the sincerity of the eldest mother, Zhixia is very grateful." ”

Jiang Zhixia wanted to suppress first, so he hurriedly said a few more good words, and then he would send a 'good person card'.

"That's a very polite thing." Aunt Li said with a smile.

In my heart, I secretly thought, sure enough, I came out of the palace, and I just knew the rules.

"But, I'm sorry, I can't marry your son." Jiang Zhixia then said.

"What?" This time, it was Aunt Li's turn not to be calm, she got up from her seat and asked with a big change in her face, "Why don't you get married?" What's wrong with my son? ”

"It's not that Brother Wei is bad. Brother Wei is young and promising, with a noble character, gentle and elegant, and talented。。。。。。 Jiang Zhixia couldn't wait to say all the compliments he knew.

It's a pity that seeing Aunt Li so angry, her brain was suddenly confused, and she couldn't think of more words, so she hurriedly said the right thing, for fear that it would be too late and she would be scolded, "It's me who has something unspeakable." ”

"What's so hard to say?" Aunt Li asked angrily.

I just thought that this was Jiang Zhixia's excuse.

"Yes, yes, it's because I'm not in good health and it's hard to have children." Jiang Zhixia hurriedly said the key points.

After finishing speaking, Zhixia covered his face with a handkerchief and said with a crying voice: "Brother Wei is the only son of three generations, and he has the heavy responsibility of inheriting the lineage, I dare not delay Brother Wei." Woo woo woo ... ”

After hearing this, Aunt Li paused in surprise, and her anger immediately dissipated.
