Chapter 117: Zhang Wen proposes marriage
After Li Hao returned to the camp, he called Yang Wenyuan and the others to discuss, and finally decided to take a day off to deal with private affairs before sending Gu Tingye and them.
After going to the Praetorian Guard, I was busy with the Qianyuan Festival, and I didn't have time to rest.
After the announcement, the crowd dispersed.
However, not long after Li Hao arrived home, Zhang Wen and Mrs. Song came to his house, saying that he wanted to see Wei.
This made Li Hao strange, his mother should not have dealt with the Hou Mansion of Huining, not since Mrs. Song came in person, it should also be received by the Wei family.
After everyone sat down in the main hall and exchanged a few words of greeting, Mrs. Song explained her intention: "I came this time to invite Mrs. Wei to go to Shengfu and help my son ask Miss Pinlan for marriage."
Hearing this, Wei looked at Mrs. Song and Zhang Wen is question, the concubine of the Hou Mansion of Huining wants to marry the girl of the Youyang Sheng family, and the difference between these two families is too big.
Before Wei could think about it, Li Hao asked, "How did the eldest lady think of inviting my mother to say goodbye, to say that there are many wealthy families and nobles in Bianjing, and there are many people for the eldest lady to choose from."
Mrs. Song explained: "Your family is already close to the Sheng family, and you are the official of Brother Wen, so you have a relationship with both sides.
So after thinking about it, it is most appropriate to ask Mrs. Wei to come forward, not to mention that this marriage was guaranteed by you at the beginning, and you still have no opinion."
Hearing this, Wei was completely stunned, she never expected that her son would have this ability, and he would help others introduce marriage.
As for Li Hao's side, I really don't know what to say at this time, this matter had nothing to do with Li Hao at first, and then it was purely a kind help, how did it become my own protection.
But if you talk about refutation, Li Hao really doesn't know how to refute, and he has nothing to say for a while.
However, Mrs. Song didn't want Li Hao to answer, but turned her head and asked, "It's not whether Mrs. Wei is willing to help with what I just said."
Under Mrs. Song's inquiry, Wei Shi reacted and hurriedly said, "I am naturally willing to help with this favor, but I don't know when to go."
Mrs. Song said, "Let's go to Sheng Mansion together tomorrow."
Hearing that it was tomorrow, Wei was stunned for a moment and said, "Is it so urgent?"
Mrs. Song explained: "You should have also heard Li Hao say that they have military affairs in their bodies, and I am afraid that they will not have time for a long time in the future.
And Pinlan and they won't stay in Bianjing for long, so I thought about taking Brother Wen to Shengfu tomorrow and finalizing the marriage first.
After that, there is no need to worry, wait for Pinlan and them to return to Youyang, and then slowly walk through the three books and six ceremonies."
After listening to Mrs. Song's explanation, Wei understood, so he made an appointment to go to Sheng Mansion together tomorrow.
After the matter was settled, Mrs. Song took Zhang Wen away, and Wei and Li Hao sent people to the door.
When he returned to the main hall, Wei said to Li Hao: "You have really improved your ability now, and you can do everything to help people protect the media and pull fiber."
Li Hao replied helplessly: "Mother's words have wronged me, this matter really has nothing to do with me, Zhang Wen fell in love with people as soon as they met.
Later, Gu Tingye instigated him, I was afraid that the two of them would mess around and ruin Pinlan's reputation, so I thought about helping."
After speaking, he sighed with emotion: "But now that this thing has really happened, everyone is happy."
After hearing Li Hao's words, Wei said, "Yes, everyone else is happy, your own business."
This sudden question made Li Hao stunned for a moment, and said, "What's the matter with me, isn't it always good?"
Wei continued, "Your marriage, I didn't think about it when I saw that you were still young.
But now that you've completed other people's marriages, it's time to think about your own business."
Li Hao never thought that this matter would fall on his head in the end.
Hurriedly said, "I don't have to rush yet, when I meet someone I really like, I will definitely tell my mother then."
Wei said
"Say it slowly if you like it or not, but what do you think of Minglan ?"
Li Hao immediately understood what Wei meant, and she had always had this idea, but Li Hao really didn't think about marrying Minglan .
First, because of blood relationship, and secondly, Minglan doesn't like it very much, in order to escape this topic.
Li Hao hurriedly interrupted, "Of course my cousin is fine.
Speaking of my cousin, I suddenly remembered that I had to say hello to Mrs. Sheng first.
I haven't confirmed it a few days ago, so I didn't say anything if something went wrong, but now that I've agreed to come to the door tomorrow, I should go and talk to the old lady."
As he spoke, he got up and walked briskly outside the house, and after getting out of Wei's sight, he trotted away directly.
At the same time, he instructed Fu Deng to prepare the carriage, and then he stood outside the mansion, and when the carriage came, he hurried to the Sheng mansion.
After entering the door, he went directly into Shou'an Hall, but when he entered the door, he saw that Minglan was also staying in Shou'an Hall at this time, accompanying the old lady.
Facing Minglan at this time, thinking of Wei's words, Li Hao felt a little embarrassed.
So he hurriedly said, "Old lady, I have given you good news today."
The old lady said, "Pinlan's business is done!"
Li Hao said: "You are really smart, you can guess it, just now Mrs. Song came to my house and invited my mother to come tomorrow to discuss marriage."
After saying that, he helped explain: "Originally, the time was not in a hurry, but because the official family wanted the imperial camp army to help with the Qianyuan Festival, Zhang Wen needed to go to the Praetorian Guard to help for a while.
Therefore, I can only hurry up, and I hope that the old lady and Uncle Sheng Wei will make it clear, so as not to be the Zhang family's negligence."
The old lady said, "Official business is important, this is also right, I will go and tell the news to Mr. and Mrs. Sheng Wei later."
Seeing that there was no problem on the old lady's side, Li Hao was ready to get up and say goodbye.
However, the old lady saw that it was getting late, so she said that she wanted to leave Li Hao for a meal, but as soon as she was questioned by Wei, Li Hao was always a little uncomfortable in front of Minglan and refused.
After leaving the Sheng Mansion, Li Hao thought that he could not return to the mansion so early, so he would be caught by the Wei family again, so he took Fu Deng to the Taiping Mansion to eat and drink.
At the beginning of the lanterns, I quietly returned home.
Early the next morning, Wei got up and dressed up, waiting for Mrs. Song to come over.
In fact, for what happened in the Sheng family today, Li Hao wanted to go over and see it with his own eyes.
But this is to say goodbye to Zhang Wen, and it is always a little inappropriate for a Beppu man to go with him.
It was a pity that Li Hao couldn't help but be unable to witness Mrs. Wang, Lin Xiaoniang, and Mo Lan when they learned that Pinlan was married.
When they learned that the daughter of the merchant they originally looked down on had married the concubine of the Hou Mansion and became the wife and eldest lady of the Hou Mansion.
I'm afraid the faces of these people don't look good, and maybe Mrs. Wang is better.
But Lin Yushuang and Mo Lan are afraid that they don't know how many things they have to smash to dissipate their anger.
