After all, it is the marriage of the eldest son, and Mrs. Tong Fu Jue's matter is very important, so she asked someone to invite Mrs. Dong to discuss it together.

When Dong heard what happened, he was shocked and asked: "Who actually dares to do something to us under the noses of the emperor and Niangniang? ”

"Master, what do you say we should do?" Dong asked anxiously.

Mrs. Tong comforted: "Madame, don't be impatient, I asked Zhao'er, he has never provoked anyone on weekdays, and this matter is not necessarily aimed at him." ”

Dong Shi felt a little relieved when he heard this, and said: "It's not us Zhao'er, it's that Miss Zhang, it seems that this Miss Zhang is not a peaceful person, otherwise how can you provoke this matter, and it will also affect our Zhao'er." ”

Disagreed: "Master, you still want to come to the door to propose, if you can do it in the palace, the other party must be someone we can't afford to provoke, then we will marry Miss Zhang back, didn't we find an enemy for ourselves? I don't agree with this marriage." ”

When Mrs. Tong heard this, he shook his head and said, "How could such a means be used by the nobles in the palace." Maybe it's a trick that the son or lady who went with him came up with. ”

"Anyway, Zhao'er and Miss Zhang's family have been in the same room for half a day, if this spreads, Miss Zhang's reputation will be ruined, since Zhao'er is also willing to take on this responsibility, we should solve this matter before it spreads. ”

"Master, this is not too hasty, after all, it is Zhao'er's marriage, how can it be hastily decided because of this matter?"

"Miss Zhang's family hasn't noticed her on weekdays, I don't know what her character is, and she hasn't been able to do it, and now the people of Zhangfu who are rashly coming to the door to provoke her are unhappy. Dong was unhappy in his heart and strongly objected.

Mrs. Tong thought for a while and said: "Zhao'er said that you can get married first, and after Miss Zhang and Luli are finished, they are discussing the marriage, besides, the two of them have already met in the palace, and Zhao'er must have agreed to tell us, he is so responsible, and the two of us should support it." ”

"Our Zhao'er is indeed a good boy, I just don't think I'm sorry for the child. ”

At this time, Tong Yingzhao, who had been listening to the call outside the door for a while, couldn't hold back anymore and pushed the door in.

Mrs. Tong was surprised: "Zhao'er." ”

Tong said after answering the call: "Father, mother, I heard what you two said, I married Miss Zhang's family voluntarily, and I have the responsibility to bear it if something like that happens, if I don't marry her, it will not be fair to Miss Zhang, please father and mother do it." ”

When Mrs. Tong heard this, she was anxious: "Zhao'er, you don't know what kind of person Miss Zhang is like, how can you hastily identify her?"

Thinking of Zhang Yanyu's slightly flustered and determined look, Tong Yingzhao said: "Although I don't know Miss Zhang, but his eldest brother also has contacts on weekdays, Brother Zhang is hearty and enthusiastic, and I think her sister is not far behind." ”

Mrs. Tong saw that the others had not yet married back and maintained it like this, and she was a little annoyed in her heart: "Okay, you are reasonable, then I won't say it, you father and son will see that it is done." ”

As soon as they heard this, Mrs. Tong and Tong Yingzhao glanced at each other, and Tong Yingzhao stepped forward to comfort her: "Mother, I didn't mean to defend her, it's just that we were already alone in the room that day, so we should go to propose marriage anyway." As for Miss Zhang, she is lively and cute, and her mother will definitely like it then. ”

Mrs. Tong also understood in her heart that there was no other way to do this, and when she saw her son bowing his head and giving in, she had to take advantage of the situation: "Then I will go to the matchmaker to propose marriage." ”

Upon hearing this, Tong Yingzhao bent down and bowed: "Thank you mother for your success." ”

Mrs. Tong looked at her son's beaming appearance, feeling a little lost in her heart, and a little unwilling to set her child's marriage in this way, but she couldn't take back what she said, so she had to give up and look for a reliable matchmaker.

Yu Shi received the maid's report and wondered why Mrs. Ma came to the door.

Ma Matchmaker is a well-known official media in the capital, and the ladies in each house are extremely fond of looking for her to talk to her son-in-law, but she has never asked her to propose marriage for her Chong'er, why did she come today?

Let the maid bring the person to the guest room, and call the master to meet him.

Mrs. Ma saw Zhang Shangshu and the others and said, "Meet Lord Shangshu and Mrs. ”

"Mrs. Ma, I don't know why you came here today?" Yu Shi didn't beat around the bush, and asked directly to the point.

Mrs. Ma smiled before speaking, and there were a few wrinkles on her forehead: "First of all, I want to say hello to the old lady, I came to the door today for the marriage of Miss Guifu." ”

Yu Shi asked in surprise when he heard this: "Mrs. Ma, are you mistaken, my family Yu'er is not yet married, no matter how I say it, I will keep her by my side for a few years, how can I marry her at such a young age." ”

Mrs. Ma said unhurriedly: "The man said that he could get engaged first, and it would not be too late to talk about the marriage when he came over." ”

"I don't know which son the man you are talking about?" Zhang Shangshu asked.

"It was Tong Taifu's eldest son who answered the call. After Mrs. Ma finished speaking, she paused for a while.

Yu and Zhang Shangshu glanced at each other, their family and the Tong family did not have any contact with each other on weekdays, and they didn't understand how the Tong family would suddenly come to the door to propose marriage.

Zhang Shangshu said unhurriedly: "This matter needs to be carefully considered, and I will talk about it after I discuss it with my wife." ”

"It should be, it should be. Mrs. Ma said tactfully: "Then I'll leave first, and I'll come back to bother in a few days." ”

After sending away the matchmaker, Yu asked, "Master, this thing is too sudden, how could this Tong family suddenly come to propose marriage?"

Zhang Shangshu frowned and said: "Although Mrs. Tong and I are officials in the same dynasty, we are independent of each other, and we have not had too much intersection, I also feel a little surprised, will there be an inside story that we don't know about this matter?"

"Master, why do you say that?"

"I'm just guessing, you told Yan'er about this and see what she means. Zhang Shangshu commanded.

Yu came to Zhang Yanyu's boudoir, sat for a while and said: "Yu'er is also a big girl now, there are hundreds of girls in the family, and my mother doesn't know how many years I can keep you by my side." ”

Zhang Yanyu said with some twist when she heard this: "Why did my mother say this for no reason?"

Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: "I'm not here for no reason, today's official media came to propose marriage for you, and it was for the son of the Tong family to ask for marriage." ”

"Who is Mother talking about? Tong Jiagong, could it be Tong Yingzhao?" Zhang Yanyu asked in surprise.

"It's the eldest son of Mrs. Tong's family, Tong Ying, what, Yu'er, you know this person. ”

After listening to her mother's reply, it was determined that it was Tong Ying, and Zhang Yanyu's heart was pounding.

The events of that day came back to my mind.
