Chapter 152: Talking about the matchmaker
Wax Moon is one of the busiest months of the year.
The people who want to give New Year's gifts in Zhongqin Bofu have more gentlemen and classmates of Yuan Wenjie and Yuan Wenwu this year.
In addition to Cai Sai Wine, there are also six great Confucians, except for the prince who taught the prince emperor alone, the rest of the Confucians are all full of economy, The four books and five classics are explained, which can make the naughty children feel like a spring breeze.
The gentlemen Xia Hongdi chose for his sons were all erudite, moral, dignified, and famous.
The martial arts master is even more proficient in riding and archery, and he is very good at kung fu, and he has the heart of a young man like Qin Ke the most.
In this dynasty, the status of Mr. can be equated with his parents, and Cuihua and Heiwa dare not be sloppy.
This year's lap-mei is also one of the New Year's gifts to the gentlemen.
The family also sent a bamboo basket of dried chili peppers, a pair of live geese, and two goats that were slaughtered and skinned, and a number of different ways to eat the geese and goats.
From Cai Saijiu to the six Great Confucians, Cuihua's New Year's gifts are the same.
This kind of New Year's gift can make the gentlemen's families very strange, who of them is not a variety of famous paintings and ancient books for the New Year, or a variety of medicinal supplements, the most unfortunate is also the delicacies of the mountains and seas! Such a simple New Year's gift is really ingenious.
However, the ladies of the family are rare, especially these recipes, which are so much more varied than they have eaten before, that if they can be done well, they may become the main dishes of the family banquet.
Mrs. Zhongqinbo also said that this recipe is unique, which is much more expensive than those ancient books and paintings! What a family!
If there were some ladies in charge before, who cared about the name of Cuihua's jealous woman, now when they see these New Year's gifts, they all praise them one after another, and their temperament is sincere.
It's not sincere, people are from the countryside, you want to stuff concubines for people, how many country men can take concubines?
In addition to gifts, Zhongqin Bofu also received many New Year's gifts.
Among them, the Fan family in Shu came early, and heard that the mother-in-law who gave the gift said that Mr. Fan wanted to tell Hu Erniu about matchmaking, but Cuihua was speechless.
"Mrs. Yuan, the lady that the head of my family wants to tell Second Master Hu is really a rare person!"
"What's the hard way?"
"This fifth lady of our Fan family is the eldest daughter of Fan Sanye, who is in the next room of our Fan family, the fifth in the family, and she is twenty-five years old this year.
The ex-husband's family is the retort family in Shudi, which can be regarded as a match for our Fan family, which is stronger than the Fan family.
Poor five ladies, married at the age of thirteen and married at the age of fifteen, But just a month before the marriage, the seventh master of the retort family died on the way back to Shu.
The hateful retort family, who wanted our five ladies to marry back then, and gave their sons a watchman!
How did our Fan Mansion intercede back then, the Retort family did not agree, and the five ladies couldn't bear the entire Fan Mansion to be the enemy of the Retort family, so they nodded and agreed to go to the Retort family to be widowed.
However, this retort is not easy to go out! The mother of the seventh master, the old woman is vicious, not only does not let our five ladies go back to their parents' home, but our family visits the five ladies every year, and they are also guarded by the retort family throughout the whole process.
Who knows, this vicious mother-in-law wants our five ladies to eat vegetarian food every day, copy scriptures for her son, and torture a lady with flowers and bones like a wither.
The head of my family heard about this last year, so he took the five ladies back to the Fan family and raised them for a year, but this old woman is still in Chengdu Mansion, ruining the reputation of our five ladies everywhere, and the head of my family is determined to marry the five ladies far away.
Mrs. Bo, it's really not my boast, our five ladies, not only have outstanding appearance, but also have a first-class good character, she also told our head of the family, remarry, she doesn't want to be a big family, and she is not afraid to be a stepmother, just want to find a mother-in-law to get along with, a simple family.
The head of the family also spent a lot of thought, and finally heard about Hu Erye's first daughter-in-law, so he came to kiss with a cheeky face. ”
Cuihua listened and thought at the same time, this Fan family had voted for the king of Shu earlier, and it may not have been the reason why they were angry with the retort family back then, and they wanted to find a backer for their family.
But the Fan family is really tough, it should be Mr. Fan who is the head of the family, and he has invested in the tile workshop in Shudi, which can be regarded as holding the emperor's thighs firmly.
Although it has been nearly ten years to take the widowed granddaughter home at this time, compared to other high-ranking families who pay attention to reputation and do not care about the life and death of their daughter, Mr. Fan's somewhat willful approach has moved Cuihua.
However, those who have been trained for nearly ten years do not know what their current nature is like.
"Mama, listening to what you said, what happened to the five ladies is really embarrassing, I don't know, what are the five ladies doing now after returning home?"
"If you don't talk about the old woman and me, how can you praise our five ladies? After our five ladies returned home, the family invited a doctor to condition her body, no matter how bitter the medicine, no matter how tasteless the meal, the five ladies all smiled and ate and drank!
I also teach a few younger sisters in the family to read and write every day, and the hairpin is praised by our family master.
Not only that, she can also make a good vegetarian food, there are really few people who are so filial to her, our head of the family is that delicious mouth, but the doctor doesn't let him eat more meat, the five ladies take all kinds of pains to make him meaty vegetarian dishes, and no one in the house is not boasting. ”
In this way, if you are still a person with a positive life, what bad thoughts can you have for people who like to cook?
Cuihua nodded, "Mama, otherwise, you can rest in our house for a night, I have to talk to my mother about this matter first." ”
"Hey, in front of the old lady, say a few kind words for the five ladies of our family, and the old woman kowtows to you!"
Cuihua hurriedly gave Mama Chun a look, she didn't want someone of such an age to kneel down and worship her.
The Hu family, Cuihua planned to go to give the New Year's gift in person, and filled two large truckloads of New Year's goods for her mother.
This will Hu Yiniu and Hu Erniu are resting at home, Hu Erniu gives their two daughters horses to ride every day, and the yard is full of laughter.
When the most promising aunt in the family returned to her parents' house, Zhao Sanniang greeted her warmly and let Cuihua into the hall.
After the greetings, Cuihua pulled Zhang and Hu Erniu aside: "Mother, second brother, I have something to say!" ”
When Cuihua told Mr. Fan about the matchmaker, Zhang was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, and asked incredibly:
"Girl, that's the Fan family of Chengdu Mansion, can you marry our Hu family?"
Hu Erniu was also worried: "Sister, didn't you say that Qi Da is not a coincidence!" ”
"Yo, the second brother is still having a relationship with his sister? What's wrong with our Hu family, do you really think of yourself as a villager in Dali Village?
How many villagers can earn hundreds or thousands of taels of silver a year? How many villagers have a sister-in-law who is Mrs. Bo? ”
Hu Erniu was very awkward: "Didn't that person come to your house?" ”
"So what's that? Can my brother and father still touch me a little light? Didn't my girl raise her for nothing? ”
"How do you need to get naked?" Zhang said angrily, she was going to be envied to death by the old villagers.
Hu Erniu tugged at the corners of his clothes and blushed: "I'm here, I don't know how to get along with other people's ladies!" Do people have anything to say to me? ”
"You talk to my mother well, why don't you have anything to say? You're dumb! Zhang couldn't see Hu Erniu's nest, and she was so angry that she wanted to get started.
Cuihua didn't expect that her second brother still had low self-esteem, she wanted to make a few jokes, but she rolled her eyes:
"Otherwise, second brother, there are still twenty days before the Chinese New Year, do you want to go to Chengdu Mansion? Look at each other, look at these five ladies! Let people look at you, it's all two marriages and two marriages, let's not engage in blind marriages and dumb marriages! ”
"I think what your sister said is reasonable, second, just like that, my mother will replace all the new clothes made for you this year, and you will go back to Chengdu Mansion with the mother-in-law of the Fan family who gave you a New Year's gift, if you fall in love, we will go back to Shu next year and marry you a daughter-in-law!"
As long as there is a daughter-in-law to marry, Zhang feels that going back to her hometown is really nothing, they don't have to go back with their legs now, there is a carriage to sit in, she is very strong!
What opinion can Hu Erniu have, besides, no one listens to his opinion, and his mother has already gone to pack his luggage for him.
"Sister, you can really do it!" The mother and daughter didn't give him a chance to refute.
"If you don't marry a daughter-in-law for a day, your sister will worry about you for one more day, marry my sister-in-law home, and I will be at ease!"
“.” Singles have no human rights!
Zhang packed two large bags of luggage for Hu Erniu in a quarter of an hour, drove Hu Erniu out of the house, and asked him to go back to Bofu with Cuihua.
Heiwa heard that her second uncle was going to Chengdu Mansion on a blind date, and she was so happy, he also joked:
"The daughter of the Fan family is well-known for her virtuous and virtuous virtues, second brother, you have earned it!"
Hu Erniu was even less confident: "Then, can you take a fancy to me?" ”
"Second brother, what misunderstanding do you have about your own conditions? You, with a dignified appearance, thick eyebrows and big eyes, your mother-in-law's favorite figure, earn nearly a thousand taels a year, or work for Your Majesty, how many people do you exceed?
The most important thing is that the father-in-law of the Hu family is always strong, and the mother-in-law loves her daughter-in-law, this is a good mother-in-law who can't be found with a lantern! ”
"Our family, really, it's so good!"
"It's not ordinarily good, it's extraordinarily good!"
Hu Erniu grinned, and then he was happy, hey, in this capital, he told his brother-in-law and sister that he was afraid, he was afraid that he would accidentally make a fairy jump for someone, and when he saw a woman, he could hide ten feet away.
This Fan family, speaking of which, can be regarded as a family with friendships, and it will not pit him, thinking about it this way, he is a lot more down-to-earth, and he also asked Heiwa how to please his future father-in-law Yunyun.
Heiwa's brother-in-law is still very powerful, not only to support the moves, but also to send the second uncle a bunch of outfits, if the weather is cold enough, the leather big and leather boots he sent can come in handy.
On the second day, Hu Erniu took on a new look, took a car of New Year's gifts prepared by Cuihua to the Fan family, and returned to Chengdu Mansion for a blind date with the mother-in-law who came with Fan's house.
Such a big battle, everyone in the house should know it, last night, Hu Erniu and Xiaochuan lived together in the front yard, and the father and son talked at night.
After Xiao Chuan learned the news that his father might marry a wife, although he smiled a little reluctantly, he boasted that he had grown up and hoped that his father would also have a good home.
The next day, the group was sent away, and several children gathered together to whisper.
"Mother, can the second uncle marry the second aunt?" Xiao'er reported to God, people are not blind in vain, and Xiaoliu is worried about his second uncle.
"What do you think?"
"Yes!" The answer was so reluctant.
"Xiaoliu is not optimistic about your second uncle? What's wrong with your second uncle? ”
"The second uncle is so old, aren't the grooms all young brothers?"
"Ahem. Son, the bridegroom has an elder brother, an uncle, an uncle and a grandfather! ”
Xiaoliu's eyes widened, what his mother said was so complicated, the child paper couldn't figure it out!
Xiao Wu looked at Xiao Liu with disdain: "The bride that my brother marries is called a bride, and the one who marries my uncle is called a wife!" Uncle is called a wife! ”
Cuihua: Little Wu, you're a genius! Your wife and I are speechless!
