Chapter 111: The One Hundred and Eleventh Day of Being an Old Lady

The old lady came out of the Sun family's garment workshop and went to see the Qin family, Hu Baozhu's marriage was a big problem for her, lest she could not change Hu Baozhu's fate, and the old lady was also working hard to find a suitable partner.

The Qin family had actually been busy with Hu Baozhu's family affairs for a long time, and she took out a stack of portraits for the old lady to see.

This is a portrait circulated in the matchmaker circle in the city, and the people in it are all young talents in the neighborhood, many of whom are showmanship, and there are also some lifters. The Qin family deliberately bought it at a high price for Hu Baozhu, and she also showed it to Hu Baozhu, but Hu Baozhu couldn't look at any of them. It's not that you dislike people who are ugly, or you think that your family background is bad, either it's your character, or it's insensitive.

"Mother, what kind of pearl does Baozhu like? I asked and asked, but there was no charter. "The Qin family has the heart to repair the relationship with the Hu family, and they really want to choose a good partner for Hu Baozhu. But that's it......

Old Lady: "......"

Hu Baozhu told her that she likes to show talents, and she has not picked any of them with so many talents.

The old lady racked her brains and came up with a statement:

"Maybe you like to be able to read and martial arts?"

The old lady pursed her lips and frowned slightly. If it weren't for Hu Baozhu being her old daughter, she would definitely not serve. Even if she looks stunning, her temperament is really grinding, and she can't like any of them.

thought that saying this would explain her disdain for the person introduced by the Qin family, but the Qin family pointed to one of the portraits and told the old lady:

"Mother, look at this. The little boy of the tailor shop in the north of the city. Good looks, a talent. Since childhood, he has been able to learn martial arts, and he has been able to show his talent in the examination at the age of eighteen, and he is a well-known little prodigy. The only regret is that the unmarried lady who has been engaged since childhood died young, and he kept filial piety for him for three years, delaying the marriage. Now the filial piety period has passed, and it is a good year. There was an unmarried lady in front of the treasure bead suspect, and she didn't even look at it...... Ay! ”

Thought that the Qin family didn't introduce Nengwen and Wu to Hu Baozhu?

In addition to this Fang Xiaogongzi, there are a few more. But without exception, Hu Baozhu can always find fault.

How can people be perfect?

The Qin clan also has no charter, and only hopes that the old lady can persuade Baozhu more.

Old Lady: "......"

The old face was flushed with shame, if she could persuade Hu Baozhu, she didn't have to come to the Qin clan to get the charter.

The old lady asked the Qin family, is Boss Hu still safe these days? As long as Boss Hu doesn't get involved in Hu Baozhu's marriage, things will take a turn for the better.

"Ann, stay in the house all day, and don't come out. I've been to see it once, and I'm reviewing my homework. ”

Qin pinched her handkerchief and sighed, these days she seems to have returned to the years when she just got married to Boss Hu. Don't look at Boss Hu now flies and camps everywhere, when he was young, he was very temperamental, and he wanted to get ahead, even if he got married, he put his studies first.

Unconsciously thinking too much, the Qin family wanted to tell the old lady that Boss Hu had now abandoned the idea of becoming an official. Buying an official requires a lot of money, and he has nowhere to make money, so he has to give up this unrealistic idea.

Really gave up?

The old lady didn't believe it.

No one can avoid the powerful role of the plot, Hu Baozhu's concubine crisis still exists, and the old lady does not dare to relax for a moment.

I got a few portraits of the old lady from the Qin family, and prepared to go home and talk to Hu Baozhu. The old lady turned her head and went to the county office, she wanted to find Shanshi.

Shanshi used to report to Hu's house every day, but he had not seen anyone for half a month, and the old lady was worried about him.

The guards guarding the door heard that the old lady was coming and invited her into the county office. The first time she entered the ancient yamen, the old lady was a little curious.

Walk through the lobby in front of you, and look like a normal mansion in the back. There were no rare flowers and plants, and there were no crops, only a row of cold knives and guns, and the officials performed their duties, even if outsiders came in, they did not squint.

The former servant who led the way was so solemn that the old lady did not dare to glance around, and followed him into a room.

The servant asked her to wait a moment, and Shanshi would arrive soon.

The old lady thanked the servant and sat down casually. After a while, Shanshi did not come, but someone brought refreshments to the old lady. After a while, a man dressed in his regular clothes appeared in front of the old lady.

The person who came was very polite, and after confirming the identity of the old lady, he actually saluted the old lady, and said that the old lady who invented the rice transplanter and the water wheel had a lot of credit, and he had long wanted to come to the door to ask for it, but he had been unable to be idle due to his busy official duties. And now it just so happened that he had to thank the old lady in person.

The old lady was so praised that she couldn't touch her head, and asked hesitantly: "Dare to ask, who are you?" ”

How could she be so valued by the people in the yamen? Even if she invented those things, what does it have to do with the person in front of her?

Someone came for a moment, and suddenly it was sudden. patted the door of his head, and was calm:

"Look at me, I forgot to introduce. My surname is Zhou, and the words are good, so you can call me 'Xingzhi'. ”

He was about the same age as Boss Hu, and he appeared in the county office, and the old lady guessed that Xu and Shanshi's identities were about the same, and they were both doormen.

There are a lot of questions, I asked about the rice transplanter and the waterwheel, and asked about the old lady's whimsy, and even Hu Laohan, who had long since passed away, was very interested.

The old lady didn't want to say much at first, but then she was opened to the conversation, and she couldn't help but say a few more words. Whatever she said, Zhou Xingzhi was very supportive, and in the end, the old lady liked him more and more.

Without him, no one doesn't like to be complimented.

The two of them chatted excitedly, and Shanshi hurried over. He was wearing a strong suit, his legs were slightly lame, and his forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat, and when he saw Zhou Xingzhi, who was chatting with the old lady, he paused and saluted:

"Your Excellency."

Only then did the old lady know that the line of conversation with her was actually Zhou Rui, the county magistrate of Qinghe County, Lord Zhou.

The old lady is a village woman and knows that she should kneel and salute when she sees the county order, but before the old lady kneels, Zhou Rui exempted her from the salute, and said that what the old lady did was for the country and the people, and he should bow to the old lady.

Old Lady: "......"

After all, I really have to give it up. The old lady hastened to avoid it.

In the end, it was Shanshi who said peace, and Zhou Ruicai left in a huff.

Looking at the back of Zhou Rui's departure, the old lady felt strange. It's so wrong, even if the county magistrate really admires what she did, why should he salute her? She's just a peasant woman!

The old lady's eyes glanced at Shanshi on the side, and they all said that the fox is fake and the tiger is mighty, she shouldn't have borrowed the momentum of Shanshi, right?

But why should the county magistrate be afraid of a doorman?

Shanshi was calm, and stepped forward to support the old lady with a smile:

"Godmother, I'm out of business these days, and I haven't had time to tell you. I just came back today, and I'm about to go home. ”

His innocent smile quickly infected the old lady, and putting aside unrealistic thoughts, the old lady had nothing but care for this godson.

Hush Han asked for warmth, the change of the third young master was confirmed from Shanshi, and the old lady told him about the second young master of the Sun family. Boss Hu's money was wasted, he could swallow this breath, but the old lady couldn't. The old lady wanted to ask the second young master of the Sun family for money.

"Godmother, I'll go with you!" Without waiting for the old lady to speak, Shanshi took the initiative to ask, which was exactly what the old lady wanted.
