After she returned, she did not hide from everyone and told what she had heard.

Sibao's brows were tightly wrinkled together, his thin lips were tightened, he thought for a long time, and whispered: "I went to the banquet all day, and I should be sick!" “

He Chun'er's face showed joy, if she was sick, she would be able to push her family affairs away.

He Zao shook his head: "It's okay to pretend to be sick, but it definitely won't achieve the desired effect!" “

Qibao also frowned: "Then let's go back, lest our relatives be forcibly taken down!" “

Sibao also smiled bitterly: "Zao'er is right, there was already Zao'er last year, and the Jifu and Han Mansions all knew about it, and if they pretended to be sick this year, they also knew it, but they were going to offend them!" “

In a short period of time, he had already decided, looked at He Zao, and his eyes were very firm: "Han Mansion and Yu Mansion are both noble families. The girl who comes out of such a family must also be dignified and polite, let's pick a good one, but it is better than choosing from the ordinary official eunuch's family! “

Sibao has always spoken very measuredly, and this kind of dislike for ordinary people would never be said before. The reason why he said this was to make a few people feel relieved.

In fact, at this time, although the noble family was rich, the upbringing of the children was not as good as that of the scholarly family. And for scholars like Sibao, who want to take the imperial examination, it is a woman from an official eunuch family who asks to marry him.

He Zao knew his thoughts, and when they looked at each other, they were all sad.

Qibao gritted his teeth and asked He Zao: "Second sister, what Han Mansion Yu Mansion means is that there must be someone in our family to marry, so let me come, don't let the fourth brother be wronged!" “

Qibao was so sensible, He Zao was very comforted, touched his head, and sighed: "You are too young and you have not achieved fame, but you do not meet their requirements!" “

It means that the status of dislike Qibao is low.

Sibao thought for a while and said, "Zao'er, what do you think of the upbringing of the girls in these families?" “

He Zao blinked his eyes.

He Chun'er also bit her lip and remained silent.

They had just met a few daughters of the noble family, and that upbringing was really-

There was silence in the room.

Sibao understood something, and he smiled: "This matter is not in a hurry, let's take a look slowly." “

That's all there is to it.

But probably because the matter was clear, in the next few days, these three mansions kept inviting He Zao and Sibao to enter the mansion.

It's always a variety of banquets, a variety of people.

Of course, I also met a few girls who were the same age as Sibao.

Because the four treasures are delicate in appearance, excellent in temperament, and perennial outside, well-informed, and more eye-catching than ordinary sons and brothers, the girls who were selected by the family to marry all fell in love with the four treasures.

At the same time, they knew each other's existence, and knew that the Four Treasures would eventually choose one of them, so there was also competition between them.

But only the girl named Jing Chu was dismissive of the Four Treasures. When I met, I was always sneering at the Four Treasures.

Fortunately, Sibao is educated, and there is no dissatisfaction.

This made the elders of Jingfu, who looked down on the identity of the four treasures, a little impressed.

But Jing Chu's biological mother, Wei's was very dissatisfied, and she frowned when she met several times.

After several contacts, He Zao and Sibao already knew that this Wei was Jing Hou's stepfamily, Jing Chu was the daughter of the stepfamily, and her brother Jing Zhan was a sister-in-law, who was nineteen years old this year, and had already reached the age of marrying, but he had never married. On top of Jing Chu, there is also an eldest sister named Jing Ru, who is only one year older than Jing Chu, but He Zao has never seen each other, and he has been to Jing Mansion a few times, and he has never heard the subordinates of Jing Mansion mention her, as if she does not exist at all.

This involves the family **, He Zao also felt strange, and quickly put it behind.

When a month passed, Yu Zhi and Han Qi had talked to Sibao twice, and He Zao and Sibao both knew that the last moment was coming. They can't drag it any longer.

That is, it is not possible to consult the parents at home.

In the final analysis, these people did not take their He family seriously, so they would arbitrarily bully them.

He Zao saw that the smile on Sibao's face was getting less and less, and he blamed himself very much, and regretted that he had not thought it through, so he recklessly opened the store in the capital.

If she was willing to wait a few years, when their brothers and sisters had accumulated enough strength, at that time, the He family would definitely not be so passive.

But, then again, she was so eager to open her shop in the capital, and she was looking for collaborators everywhere, in order to accumulate strength so that she could get rid of the control of the Han government.

Fortunately, Han Qi is a very wise adult, although he was very dissatisfied with He Zao's behavior of cooperating with Ji Yuyu and Yu Zhi, but he didn't take too practical actions in the end, and when He Zao sent the scoundrel who came to the door to the government, the matter was like the past, and it was not mentioned again.

He has been thinking about a solution, but no matter which method is used, the He family is bound to be damaged.

In contrast, just letting Sibao choose a fiancée, whose status is still higher, seems to be more acceptable.

However, she thought things were too rosy.

On this day, the weather is very sunny, it is already the weather of May, the pomegranate flowers are blooming, there is a particularly large pomegranate forest outside the capital, full of bright orange-red flowers, from a distance, it looks like a piece of morning glow, dyeing half of the sky.

Pomegranate is a very auspicious fruit, therefore, many nobles in the capital have chosen a good day such as May 5 to go out to enjoy the flowers.

Several people in Hezao also received the post.

After a few people discussed, they asked Sibao and He Xia'er to go to the pomegranate forest because they couldn't get sick, and He Zao and He Chun'er, who couldn't talk about marriage.

Before he arrived at the place, He had already smelled an extremely strong fragrance of pomegranate flowers, and he couldn't help but revel in it.

Looking at that bright color like fire, I feel that just looking at it makes people drunk.

He Chun'er also looked around and smiled: "We didn't encounter such a good scenery last year, and this year is a good blessing!" “

This time, it is Ji Mansion who is the east, Ji Yuyu is not there, Mrs. Ji, Ji Ruan Ruan and Ji Rong are all there. When they saw He Zao and He Chun'er, they all warmly greeted them.

I occasionally heard someone else's discussion: "It's just rare her family's silver, otherwise it's the daughter of a seven-grade official, and it's not worth associating with people like us!" “

Similar words are not few, after more than a month, He Zao and He Chun'er are very able to exercise, pretending not to hear, and saluting Mrs. Ji with a smile.

After talking for a while, Mrs. Ji asked their juniors to play, and Ji Ruan Ruan took He Zao and the two of them to drink tea on the side of the flower mat.

It is very common for her clothes to be accidentally wet when the maid pours tea, and the clothes at this time are very thin and light-colored, and the tea stains are very conspicuous.

The girl took the initiative to ask He Zao to change her clothes.

He Zao's eyes narrowed.
