Chapter 073 There are five women in a family and 6 families
"Brother Mu, I haven't said anything about you yet! Obviously, there is such a good little lady under your knees, but why have I never heard you mention it? Do you regard me as a friend?"
It's good that he doesn't look for him. As soon as Mu You asked now, Doctor Qiu became angry instead, and opened his mouth to ask. That demeanor was simply a bite back, and it made Mu You speechless.
Mu You couldn't cry or laugh. "Brother Qiu, what are you talking about? Didn't I mention to you countless times that the sixth lady of my family had already been given?"
"But you never told me that she knew how to heal, and that she was so skilled! If I had known that this was the case, I would have hired her to my son a long time ago, so why do I have to wait until now?" Doctor Qiu was still angry.
Mu You was stunned. "Brother Qiu, are you serious?"
"How could I have told you a lie?" said Doctor Qiu indignantly, "Now I won't tell you anything else. Just say, you, the sixth lady, will you marry this kid from my family?"
Qiu Shan, the son of Divine Doctor Qiu, also hurriedly stepped forward and bowed to Mu You: "The younger generation has seen Uncle Mu. โ
Humble and polite, advance and retreat in moderation, and the sparse and indifferent demeanor between words and deeds is fully displayed, which makes people can't help but look sideways. Especially his face is very good, his face is like Fu Fan, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, although Mu You has seen him a few times before, but when he sees him again today, he still doesn't realize that he has seen a few more times.
This junior, Mu You has always liked him very much, but he never thought that one day he would recruit him as his son-in-law. It's not that he looks down on Qiu Shan, but he thinks that Qiu Shan is both talented and beautiful, and since he was a child, he has followed Qiu Shen as a medical doctor, and his future is limitless, and the only one in the family who can match him is the sixth lady. But the six ladies have already been promised to the Gu family, and the other ladies in the family are not suitable for age and character. Since he knew that it was not suitable, he naturally didn't think much about it. Today, when he suddenly heard Doctor Qiu mention this matter, his heart moved again-in fact, this is also a good family business!
Doctor Qiu is his best friend, Qiu Shan can also be said to have grown up under his watch, and this child's character is absolutely reliable. Doctor Qiu has good medical skills, and the sixth lady is married, not to mention anything else, at least someone can take care of her body. Moreover, the Qiu family has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, the family style is upright, and the family population is simple, isn't this the choice of the girl's mother-in-law's dream?
Compared with the Qiu family, the Huang family has fallen far behind.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Qiu family was good, much better than the people who came to ask for relatives today, and the Cui family, who was high in Rao, was far behind. Moreover, although Doctor Qiu is low-key, he has often walked in Chang'an City over the years and cured many high-ranking officials and dignitaries. There are also certain connections. The Cui family and the Cao family would not be stupid enough to offend a well-known doctor, and it is even more impossible for the Gu family and the Huang family.
Such a good person still took the initiative to send it to the door today, so what else is there to say?
He hurriedly turned to Mu Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, what do you think?"
Mu Jiaojiao stared at Qiu Shan's face for a long time before slowly turning his head: "He is indeed very good-lookingโbetter looking than Cui Liulangjun." โ
"Then, Mu Liuniang, what do you mean?" Divine Doctor Qiu was overjoyed when he heard this, his eyes were shining, and his joy was almost overflowing.
"However, I have already agreed with the Cui family first!" Mu Jiaojiao whispered.
"What's the matter? It's just a few verbal agreements, if you don't want to fulfill them, presumably the Cui family won't force them. You are the benefactor of the Cui family, as long as it is your opinion, they will definitely respect it. โ
"No, I can't. A gentleman is as heavy as a thousand pounds. Although I am not a gentleman, I cannot be untrustworthy. Mu Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and took her eyes off Qiu Shan with difficulty, "Uncle Qiu, I'm sorry, I can't do such a thing. โ
Doctor Qiu's face was full of disbelief. "Sixth lady, you can see clearly, my son looks much better than Cui Liulangjun!"
"I see it clearly, but it's late now, you're late. Mu Jiaojiao shook her head, but she didn't even look at Qiu Shan anymore, so she bowed down to herself and bowed, "Daddy, you can respond to the Cui family's proposal! โ
After that, no matter what Doctor Qiu and Mu You called, she left without looking back.
Mu You finally realized that something was wrong. "Brother Qiu, what the hell is going on, what do you mean by what you just said?"
"Hey, don't you know? Sixth lady, she didn't tell you?"
"No!" Mu You suddenly became irritable, "After this child came back from the Cui family, she just said a few words that she cured the Cui family's illness, and then went back to rest." To this day, I still haven't figured out what she's done in the Cui family. Do you know, let me know if you know!"
"Of course I know, I was there at the time to see it with my own eyes!" Doctor Qiu nodded hurriedly, and then said everything Mu Jiaojiao said in the Cui family. By the way, he also told him about the fact that he was cheeky and stayed at Cui's house all night, and he didn't leave until the next morning when he saw Cui Ye acting as usual.
After Mu You listened, his heart was hit again.
"You say, it's the eldest Langjun of the Cui family who is really sick, not the old lady of the Cui family?
"Isn't it? The Cui family's eldest Langjun is the most talented one in the Cui family's generation, and he won the top prize in high school before the age of thirty, which is the hope of the Cui family in the future. He had just won the top prize, and Cui Ge Lao had already used the power at hand to find a position as a school scrivener for him in Menxia Province, just waiting for him to take office after the year. This position is very demanding, how many pairs of eyes are staring at it, and if he can't go, how many people will have to squeeze their heads. It is precisely because of this that they refused to release the news, only saying that Mrs. Cui was sick and Cui Dalangjun was by her side, on the one hand, to delay time, and on the other hand, to create a reputation for pure filial piety for him. But Cui Dalangjun doesn't have much trouble with his legs, the most important thing is heart disease, I hate my age, I have studied pharmacology for 30 years, and most of them stay above the doctor, Cui Dalangjun can't stand up, I always thought that he had a disease that I didn't find, and I didn't think about other aspects. But the sixth lady is different, she just gave him a pulse, and concluded his illness, and even said that the score was not bad in the past, and the medicine prescribed was also fast and ruthless, this ability is really amazing, I admire it so much. Such a little lady, whoever gets the blessing of whose life, if you still regard me as a friend, Brother Mu, you must marry her to our family!" Doctor Qiu said vividly, unconsciously turning the topic to the marriage of his children.
Qiu Shan had heard his father talk about Mu Jiaojiao's divine skills countless times before. But now that he listens to it again, he still yearns for it, so he made a deep gesture to Mu You: "Uncle Mu, the little nephew really admires Mu Liuniang, and is willing to marry her as a wife, take care of her for the rest of his life, and ask Uncle Mu to fulfill the heart of the little nephew." โ
Mu You was surprised. This surprise was much worse than when he heard that Mu Jiaojiao had cured Cao Shu's illness.
Although from the time she cured Cao Shu, he knew that this daughter's medical skills were not ordinary. But with a few glances, you can determine the cause of the disease, and prescribe just the right prescription, and get the attention of Cui Ge Lao, so that he can take the initiative to propose marriage, how many people in the world can have such skills? Cui Ge Lao is a person who has to give three points of courtesy when a saint sees him today!
His daughter, is it that powerful? He suddenly felt as if he didn't know her.
Looking at the father and son of Divine Doctor Qiu who were sincerely asking for marriage in front of him, he looked embarrassed: "Brother Qiu, since you were there at the time, then you should know that this family affair was decided by the sixth lady and Cui Ge Lao. โ
"I know. But Cui Ge likes the sixth lady and respects her very much. If the sixth lady changed her mind and didn't want to get married, presumably Cui Ge Lao would not be reluctant. Doctor Qiu whispered, obviously a little short of breath in his voice.
"But you also heard what my sixth lady said just now, she didn't plan to change her mind!"
"This ...... But you can also see that she is clearly a little attracted to children. You should also hear the meaning of her words, the reason why she is reluctant to change her mind is only because she promised Cui Ge Lao in advance, but it is not that she doesn't want to. If she is allowed to choose, she will definitely be willing to marry Xiao'er. Divine Doctor Qiu insisted, "And, as far as your heart is concerned, do you want to marry her to the Cui family, or to our Qiu family?"
"Of course, I want her to live a smooth and happy life. Mu You said.
"Isn't that the case? The affairs of children and daughters are originally the order of parents. Since you think my family is good, make your words clear to her, Liuniangzi is a sensible child, she will definitely understand your hard work. Divine Doctor Qiu saw that he had a score!
Mu You's mind was in chaos, he felt that he was going crazy!
"Brother Qiu, having said that, it's ......"
"What, don't you dare to offend the Cui family?"
"Of course not! It's just that the sixth lady is a child with ideas, and she has made it very clear just now, if I rashly make a decision against her wishes, who knows what she will think? Mu You gritted his teeth and said.
"What do you mean by taking a long-term view?"
"It means that no matter who I promise the sixth lady, I won't make a decision today. There were so many things that happened in one breath today, and now my whole body is in chaos, and I have to sort it out. Mu You pounded his head. He really felt physically and mentally exhausted, and he had never felt so tired after talking to business partners for three days and three nights before.
Doctor Qiu refused to let him go. "If you can't do it today, when will you make up your mind?"
Although he swore to Mu You, he was not afraid in his heart? He could see Mu Jiaojiao's attitude clearly just now, this little lady who adhered to principles made him a little worried while admiring!
Maybe it's because he cares too much, he takes this matter very seriously. As long as things are not settled for a day, he feels irritable, and he really can't snatch Mu Jiaojiao home and lock him up now!
"Three days!" Mu You stretched out three fingers, "You let me sort it out first, and I'll have a good talk with the sixth lady." Three days at most, I'll give you an explanation!"
"Okay, that's three days. However, in the past three days, let the younger brother take the child to live in the house for a few days, and by the way, let the younger brother and the child ask the sixth lady for medical advice. โ
By the way, he took the opportunity to get in touch with Mu Jiaojiao, so that he could persuade her to change her mind?
If he could, he would be happy to see it. Mu You said secretly.
"Brother Qiu is willing to stay in the cold house, which is Mu's honor. Mu Mou will call someone to prepare a wing room for you!" he nodded hurriedly, and then asked someone to go to Gong's side to spread the word.
Gu Yuan and Steward Cao had already heard Mrs. Wang's explanation of their intentions, and their hearts were cold. Now add a Divine Doctor Qiu...... Huang Peiyuan also knew that there was little hope, although Mu You did not make a decision on the spot to decide who to marry Mu Jiaojiao, but their families must be out of play. Now that they have a three-day deadline, they all know that Mu You has saved some face for them, so they quickly said goodbye and left.
Mrs. Wang didn't continue to be aggressive as before, but nodded with a smile: "It is indeed abrupt for us to rashly lead the matchmaker to the door today." Master Mu's idea is very right, it is a lifelong event related to the sixth lady, you should close the door and think about it. In this way, I will take my leave first, and wait for the reply of Master Mu in three days. โ
With that, she took her leave and left.
Gong hurriedly sent the person out. Then her legs went limp, and if it weren't for the girl's support, she would almost have to sit on the ground.
"It's so scary, it's too scary!" she patted her chest and kept gasping for breath, "The ladies of the five surnamed Qiwang families are so good! I will never deal with such people again!"
It's a pity that her wish will never come true. After Mu Jiaojiao married into the Cui family, the Mu family became closer and closer to the Wang family, the Cui family, the Zheng family, the Li family, and the Lu family. At that time, she will know that a person like Mrs. Wang is already good, at least people still know to leave her some respect. As for the others...... Hehe, anyway, the next many years of Gong's life were very thrilling and colorful.
Mrs. Wang and the others left on the front foot, and the pot exploded in Chang'an City on the back foot. Everyone knows a big news - a lady in the richest mansion in Chang'an was actually courted by five families with good status at the same time, and everyone was bound to her!
Burst!
When the news reached his ears, Cui Pu squirted out as soon as he took a sip of tea in his mouth.
"What does it mean to like her very much when you meet, and what does it mean to change your evil ways and return to righteousness when you marry her, and to be motivated? Lao Tzu has never said it, never said a word!"
