Lu Junbi was entrusted by others, and received a secret message, so he had to bite the bullet and say: "I heard that Wang's friend is not married yet, I don't know if you have ever thought about what kind of wife to find?" ”

Lin Daguan replied casually: "As the saying goes, marry a wife and marry a virtuous, and take a concubine." ”

That's a standard answer, and it's always a good idea to take it out and deal with it.

Lu Junbi smiled and said, "Who said that virtuous and sexual beings can't have both? There are not no virtuous and beautiful women, and Wang Yuanwai's only daughter is like this. ”

Lin Tailai remembered the experience of being smuggled into the celebrity party by Fan Niangzi last spring, peeking at the appearance of the local ladies, and then returning disappointed.

With the intention of drinking, he pointed at Lu Junbi and said, "You really look like the mouth of a matchmaker." ”

Lu Junbi stood up and greeted Lin Tailai and said, "I'll go to change my clothes, go together!" ”

Lin Daguan wondered in his heart, you Lu Xiucai want to go to the toilet, what are you doing with me? But he also had a bit of a urge to urinate, so he got up and went with him.

The commode was kept in a separate small room, in a remote corner at the back. When you get there, you have to go through a long verandah.

The verandah leans against the white wall, and the wall is carved with leaky windows at intervals, through which you can enjoy the garden view on the other side, which is also a common facility in Soviet-style gardens.

Lin Daguan came out first, stood on the verandah and waited, and looked at the other side through the leaky window when he was bored.

But I found that there was a swing by the pond not far away, and a girl in a goose yellow shirt was waiting for the maidservant, playing on the swing, and the crisp laughter was transmitted to this side.

Looking at the picturesque eyebrows, fair and delicate, Lin Daguan thought of the feeling of first love.

Lu Junbi also finished walking, walked over slowly, coughed lightly, and said, "I didn't expect Wang Yuanwai's daughter to come to the garden today." ”

The maid over there suddenly noticed that a man was peeking and told the girl who was swinging.

Then the girl shyly covered half of her face with a fan, turned around and took small steps, and escaped from the moon gate.

Lin Daguan was still unsatisfied, stretched out his hand and said: "Come and feel it, quickly give me pen and ink!" ”

Lu Junbi was about to say that he would send someone to the front study to pick it up, and he would wait for a while.

But Zhang Wen and Zhang Wu immediately took out the pen and ink from the leather bag and handed it to Lin Daguan.

Lu Junbi: "."

It can only be said that "Friend Wang" is finally like a literati.

Lin Daguan directly began to write words on the white wall, entitled "The Bodhisattva Barbarian Meets the Wang Girl".

Lu Junbi continued to look at it, and saw that the full word was:

"The east wind man willow flies up. Swing courtyard heavy door. Pair of baths in red. Mandarin ducks fly on the pond.

See you at the bottom of the individual flowers. Surprise back to the fan. Shyness refers to mandarin ducks. Spend time and every day. ”

Lin Daguan put away his pen and ink and sighed: "This situation and this scene are worthy of this poem, and it is not a waste." ”

Lu Xiucai doesn't understand, what does it mean to "not be a waste"?

After that, he invited Lin Tailai back to his seat and continued to drink and chat.

After three more rounds of wine, Lu Junbi provoked the conversation again and said: "A good man has ambitions in all directions, and a person with lofty ambitions like Friend Wang, it is best not to be confined to his hometown when marrying a wife."

With the foundation of Wang's friend, I am afraid that there is no need for other help in Suzhou, so marrying a local woman in Suzhou will not add any benefits. ”

Lin Tailai deeply agreed, "This is reasonable. ”

In this era, most people married their wives from the same township, and very few were from other places, and the same province was far away.

Of course, now that the transportation conditions are limited, most people are reluctant to marry their daughters far away and feel the pain of parting.

But marrying a powerful lady from other places is, of course, also beneficial, and can add new help outside the country.

However, now Lin Tailai feels that it is too early to say this, because it is not clear how far his road to fame in the imperial examination can develop.

So I don't know what kind of wife room I should match, so I can only take one step at a time.

Lu Junbi saw that Lin Tailai agreed with his point of view, and felt that this was a good start, and continued:

"With a talent like Ling, the choice must be a lady, an official family or a wealthy family.

But in between, I still recommend that you choose a wealthy family to marry. ”

Lin Tailai didn't care about it, but when he heard this, he was quite surprised, and looked up and asked, "Why is this?" ”

According to the general view of mate selection, between official eunuch families and wealthy families of the same level, most of them choose to marry official eunuch families, but Lu Xiucai persuaded him in the opposite way.

Lu Junbi explained: "First, with a foundation like Wang's friend, he does not urgently need the protection of the official family.

Second, eunuchs all have a term of office, and no matter how big an official is, there will always be a time when he will withdraw from the officialdom.

That is to say, whether it is an official position or a connection, it will expire.

However, wealth never expires and can always be used. ”

Lin Tailai smiled dumbly, and made a move of Lin's Taiji: "Brother Lu is vulgar, this point of view is too utilitarian, and it seems that marriage has become a transaction."

In the selection of a mate, pay attention to a love between the two, only look at the character and temperament, and do not pay attention to the appearance and family wealth. ”

Lu Junbi: "."

Should I believe your nonsense, or should I not believe your nonsense?

Wang Yuanwai couldn't help but interject at this time: "There are no outsiders here, why be so hypocritical?

Wang Sheng, you are still young, you must not underestimate the help that women can bring. How many heroes and heroes throughout the ages have borrowed the strength of women when they started.

Affection and love are very beautiful things, but it is best to take the initiative to combine them with practical interests, so as to be more stable.

Even I, a salt merchant, was no exception, and I didn't have the help of the Yue family at the beginning."

Lin Tailai seemed to have some experience, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly spoke: "Wang Yuan has no shortage of wealth, and what he urgently needs is to gain fame?" ”

Wang Yuanwai is inexplicable, hasn't the fame been revealed? Why do you want to mention it again?

Lin Tailai woke up like a dream: "Wang Yuanwai's high opinion inspired me, and it reminded me of the fourth point that I didn't say just now. ”

Wang Yuanwai was still puzzled and didn't know how to answer.

Lin Tailai continued: "Ma Xianglan, the former head of the twelve hairpins of Jinling and known as the first Ji of the Qinhuai River in the 200 years, has Wang Yuanwai heard of it? ”

Hearing this name, Wang Yuanwai said with emotion: "In the early years, I ran on the Yangtze River and often passed by Jinling, how could I not know Ma Xianglan? ”

After observing the words, Lin Daguan said: "Now that Ma Xianglan has retired, how about I persuade her to come to Yangzhou and make an outer room for Wang Yuanwai?" ”

Wang Yuanwai was surprised and said, "Really? I heard that Ma Xianglan has always wanted to marry Wang Zhideng, the first scholar in Suzhou, as a concubine, but Wang Zhideng has never agreed. ”

Lin Daguan said with confidence: "Ma Xianglan is a righteous person, and she is a heroine among women. She owes me a favor, and if I ask, she will say yes. ”

Wang Yuanwai: "."

Damn, it's a heart-warming feeling again!

Although Maggie is old, she is still the goddess of their generation, and her fame is still there.

When he was just a small salt merchant, he often passed by the Qinhuai River, and Ma Ji, who was a celebrity in every vein, was a goddess that he could not hope for.

Later, he made a fortune and also entered Maggie's door, but it was also a reception for a few drinks with him.

Everyone knows that people like Ma Ji are qualified to pick customers, and basically only interact with celebrities in Shilin.

The copper-smelling businessman went to drink a few glasses of wine with him.

When Wang Yuanwai recalled the past years, he heard Lin Tai say:

"If Maggie can move to Yangzhou City, I think it's pretty good here in Hidden Garden, and you can get a lot of orchids and bamboo.

And Ma Ji knows a lot of scholars, as long as they pass by Yangzhou, a traffic hub, I am afraid that they all want to visit the old people.

At that time, won't Wang Yuanwai take the opportunity to get the opportunity to travel with a large number of scholars? ”

"When is she coming?" Wang Yuanwai took the case and asked firmly.

The authorities are fascinated, the bystanders are clear, Lu Junbi and Lu Xiucai couldn't help but cover their faces, today the old man is really in his own home field.

Career and fame are counted, even when talking about love, you, a greasy middle-aged man who has experienced vicissitudes, were killed by young people of eighteen or nineteen, is it a shame or not?

You don't want to think about it, in the future, you will be surrounded by people introduced by "Friends Wang", what celebrities such as Zhang Fengyi and Ma Xianglan, who has the final say on the Wang family's career in Yangzhou City?

This friend of the king is not only terrible, he is simply a devil.

Lu Junbi really didn't know what to say, after eating a meal, he didn't see Wang Yuanwai complete any ideas, but let "Friend Wang" almost lay out, how can he be embarrassed.

No one else has agreed to be your son-in-law, and you Wang Yuanwai can't wait to endure all kinds of temptations.

If you still negotiate next, apart from Wang Yuan, in addition to kneeling to send your daughter to ask for take-in, what qualifications do you have to ask for a price?

I didn't finish it until this morning last night.,This chapter is made up.,I still owe 2 chapters!
