Chapter 10: Senior Brothers and Sisters, Born as a Pair (5)
In response to Mrs. Zhong's prayer, Liu Yiyi immediately sent a letter to Mrs. Liu.
It is more appropriate for Mrs. Liu, who has rich experience and wide connections, to do such a thing as pulling fiber for others.
Mrs. Liu received her daughter's letter and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
The son-in-law has a childhood sweetheart at home, although she is not as directly unhappy as Liu Xiang, but she is worried in her heart.
As long as you can send away this plague god, you can do some effort, and it doesn't matter if you give up some favors.
Mrs. Liu released the news that there was a cousin in the family who was looking for someone, and even though many families sent portraits of their children to Liufu.
Mrs. Liu chose a few similar ones according to her daughter's conditions, held a tea party at home, and invited a few children to meet with Miss Zhong.
In only four or five days, there was a result, and Mrs. Liu's efficiency was so fast that Liu Yiyi was surprised.
After receiving the post, Liu Yiyi sent someone to invite Mrs. Zhong to inform her about going to the banquet.
Mrs. Zhong smiled and smiled.
"Thank you, madam, for bothering me!"
Liu Yiyi has also been worried these days, seeing that this matter is almost a kick in the door, and her mood is also quite complicated.
"It's all my mother's help to choose, tomorrow to meet these people have already been picked, when tomorrow goes, and then by the lady herself, if there is no one to like, let's choose again." ”
"Since Mrs. Liu is personally in the palm of her eyes, it will naturally not be bad. ”
The two exchanged a few polite words, and Mrs. Zhong said goodbye and left.
In the Suju courtyard, Zhong Chuchu was also locked in the outhouse by Mrs. Zhong, and he couldn't leave the house except for eating, drinking, and Lazar.
Zhong Chuchu didn't want to go out either, since she and Zhao Han had a ridiculous night in the study that day, every day someone with a broken mouth walked outside her house, and gossip would float in. She didn't dare to go out and face it, preferring to hide in the house.
The only bad thing is that she can't see Zhao Han, and she can't hear Zhao Han's news, which makes her life in Sujuyuan a little boring.
Mrs. Zhong came back from Yanlaixuan and mentioned to her daughter that she would go to Liu's house for a banquet, but she didn't say that she would go on a blind date. oh
Miss Zhong didn't want to go out, let alone go to Liu's house, so she kept making excuses to shirk.
The daughter felt a little unwell, and I was afraid that she would not be able to accompany her mother to the banquet. ”
Mrs. Zhong immediately called out.
"If there's anything wrong, I'll ask a doctor to come and see. ”
Miss Zhong was defeated by her own mother, and her face was slightly stiff.
"Mother doesn't have to trouble the doctor, it's just a little boring, just sleep. ”
Mrs. Zhong smiled but did not speak, and Miss Zhong fled.
On the second day, Liu Yiyi led the Zhong family's mother and daughter out of the door and went straight to Liu's house.
When her daughter returned home, Mrs. Liu personally greeted her at the second gate. Before she entered the door, many juniors who were older than Liu Yiyi and younger than Liu Yiyi came to greet her.
"My little aunt is back, and my grandmother asked me to meet you. ”
Liu Yiyi entered the gate like a moon held by the stars, and when she passed through the front yard, she saw Mrs. Liu standing in the wind.
Mrs. Liu is now over fifty years old, and she is also an old feudal lord with a full house of children and grandchildren, and looking for relatives for Miss Zhong is completely for her daughter, otherwise, with Zhong Chuchu's identity, she would never be able to work Mrs. Liu to protect the media for her.
Liu Yiyi threw away the gentleness and seriousness outside, ran to Mrs. Liu, and pulled Mrs. Liu to be coquettish.
"Mother, how are you standing on the tuyere. ”
Mrs. Liu scratched her daughter's nose dotingly, and smiled kindly: "It's not to pick you up this little skin monkey." ”
Liu Yiyi hugged Mrs. Liu's arm and shook it, and said with a smile: "Mother~ How can you say that I am a leather monkey in front of so many people, when this word spreads, where will I put my face." ”
The crowd laughed.
Mrs. Liu asked her daughter-in-law to entertain the mother and daughter of the Zhong family, and she pulled her daughter to talk privately.
"Speaking of which, did Miss Zhong ask for this marriage herself, or did you arrange it for her on your own?"
After being reminded by Mrs. Liu, Liu Yiyi suddenly understood the origin of the restlessness in the past few days.
"My mother woke me up, this marriage was asked for by Mrs. Zhong, not by Miss Zhong herself. ”
The mother and daughter glanced at each other worriedly.
"I'm afraid that this matter will be thankless in the end. ”
Liu Yiyi sighed.
Mrs. Liu saw her daughter's depression and knocked her cane on the ground.
"If my uncle dares to make things difficult for you because of this, then I will reconcile with him, and the girl of our Liu family will not be idle by him. ”
Liu Yiyi pursed her lips in embarrassment.
"The matter...... Let's talk about it!"
Mrs. Liu sighed, pulled her daughter into her arms and patted her to reassure.
"Don't worry, my mother is looking for her according to your conditions, although she is not rich and noble, but she is also a solid family, she is all carefully selected, and she will never be able to pick out the thorns. ”
Before the mother and daughter could say a few thoughtful words, there was a commotion at the door, and the maid hurriedly came to report.
"Mrs. Yu, the girl of the Zhong family suddenly felt unwell, Mrs. Zhong wanted to ask Mrs. for advice, and went back to the house first. ”
The person was brought by Liu Yiyi, Miss Zhong was unwell and had to go home early, and Liu Yiyi didn't show up all the time.
Mrs. Liu snorted: "You bring someone to help take care of Miss Zhong first, and I'll come." ”
The mother and daughter went out together, and Miss Zhong was placed in a wing room next to the main courtyard to rest.
Mrs. Zhong had a bitter look on her face, and when she saw Mrs. Liu coming, she stepped forward to say hello.
"The folk woman has seen her wife, and the little girl suddenly felt unwell and disturbed the banquet in the house. ”
Mrs. Liu smiled and said it was okay.
"It was the poor hospitality in the house that caused Miss Zhong to feel unwell, should I compensate my wife. ”
The more amiable Mrs. Liu's attitude was, the more weak Mrs. Zhong became.
"Don't dare, don't dare, disturb the house and have a lot of uneasiness, the little girl is not in good health, I'm afraid I can't participate in the banquet anymore, the woman takes her back to the house first. ”
"Yes, yes, it's only right to let your child have a good rest. ”
Mrs. Zhong was in a hurry and only cared about her daughter, although she wanted to go back to the house first, but she did not arrange carriages and horses. After Liu Yiyi came out, she ordered someone to set up a car and send people out.
Outside the gate of the Liu family's mansion, Mrs. Zhong rejected Liu Yiyi's proposal to return to the mansion together.
"It's rare for Madame to go back to her parents' house once, so she should spend time with her family. It's okay anyway, I'll just take her back. ”
Liu Yiyi saw that Miss Zhong didn't want to see her, so she didn't insist anymore.
"Mrs. Zhong was careful all the way. ”
Miss Zhong is gone, and the banquet is calm again. Mrs. Liu Yiyi went out to take a look, and looked at the attitudes of several men's mothers, and was very satisfied with Miss Zhong.
Even if Miss Zhong is really unsatisfactory, she is satisfied enough to be able to use this to establish a relationship with the Liu family.
But now is not the time to speak, and the families are saying goodbye one after another.
In the carriage of the Zhao family, Miss Zhong cried and fell into Mrs. Zhong's arms.
"A-Niang, what does the Liu family mean? Why are you looking for someone for me, when will it be his Liu family's turn to take care of my marriage...... Liu Yiyi snatched away her senior brother, do you want to forcibly marry me off?"
