Chapter 20: Propose

Views:

Yu Tang was also wary of Mrs. Tang, so she called Shuangtao in and told her, "Go and see what Mrs. Tang is here for?"

Shuangtao left in response.

Yu Tang and Ma Xiuniang's playfulness has faded a lot, and they sat on the arhat couch eating ice and gossip about the city. And the most eye-catching gossip in the city is about the Pei family.

"Have you heard?" Ma Xiuniang whispered, "The aunt of the eldest son of the Pei family wanted to take the eldest son of the Pei family back to study in the capital. The third master called all the elders of the Pei family to the ancestral hall and asked them in front of everyone. Should the young master of the Pei family stay at home to keep his filial piety or go back to his grandfather's house to study..."

"Ah!" Yu Tang said in surprise, "Master Pei San is like this, even if the young master of the Pei family wants to go to his grandfather's house to study - if he goes, he will have a solid reputation of being 'unfilial', so don't even think about doing it. official."

Although she knew that the young master of the Pei family was suppressed at home by the third master Pei in her previous life, she didn't know that it was done in this way.

"That's right!" Ma Xiuniang said, "My father said that Mr. Pei San is really cruel. He also said that we should try not to look for the Pei family if we have anything in the future."

Yu Tang chuckled.

Ma Xiuniang sighed: "There is also the chief executive's family, what happened? My father said that since the death of the chief executive, no one in Lin'an City has seen the chief executive's family again."

Yu Tang was stunned, hesitantly said: "Should he be kicked out of Lin'an City?!"

Ma Xiuniang said: "But no one saw the chief executive's family leaving the city!"

The implication is that the chief executive and his family were killed.

"No way!" Yu Tang said, "There should be quite a lot of chief butlers!"

"Who can say for sure about this kind of thing." Ma Xiuniang obviously didn't believe Master Pei San, and said, "Whoever has done something bad will write it on his forehead!"

Will that person kill

Yu Tang didn't speak for a long while.

Shuangtao ran in: "Miss, miss, Mrs. Tang is here to match you!"

"What?!" Both Yu Tang and Ma Xiuniang stood up.

Yu Tang frowned, but Ma Xiuniang pulled Shuangtao excitedly and said, "Tell me, who is Mrs. Tang proposing marriage for?"

Shuangtao smiled and said, "It's the second young master of Li Jinshi's family in the south of the city!"

"Li Jun!" Yu Tang was stunned.

Ma Xiuniang looked at her with a sly smile, pointed at Yu Tang and said, "A Tang, tell me the truth, what is the story in it, and I will keep it a secret for you, or else, I will tell my aunt about you Get to know the second young master of the Li Mansion in the south of the city..."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Yu Tang said with his heart in a mess, "How could I know Li Jun!"

She is telling the truth.

Although she was married to Li Jun in her previous life, she had never met this person before.

When talking about kissing, she thought that Li Jun had met her before and fell in love with her, at least it was much better than a blind marriage. Later she married into the Li family, and Li Jun was no longer alive.

But Ma Xiuniang didn't believe it, and said: "Then how do you know that the second young master of the Li family is called Li Jun?"

Yu Tang perfunctorily said to her absent-mindedly: "I've heard it said before." Then he asked Shuangtao anxiously, "What did my mother say?"

Shuangtao smiled and said: "Madam said that the family was planning to recruit a son-in-law, but never thought of marrying you off. This is a serious matter. Madam can only reply to the Li family after discussing it with the master."

Yu Tang was stunned.

How could her mother answer Mrs. Tang like this

She said, "What else did Mrs. Tang say?"

Shuangtao pursed her lips and smiled, and said pointedly: "Mrs. Tang said that the second young master of the Li family met you by accident, and she would not marry unless you were the only one. Mrs. Li also decided to marry you because the second young master of the Li family was making trouble at home. Mrs. Tang was invited to test the tone of the wife. Later, Mrs. Tang replied to Mrs. Li. Mrs. Li did not give up and tried the tone of the wife herself. But when the second young master of the Li family found out, not only did he not give up, he even shouted at home to To be the son-in-law of the Yu family. No one will listen to it. Mrs. Li has no choice but to entrust Mrs. Tang to discuss with Mrs. "

No wonder mother softened her tone!

Whether it is the father or the mother, what they care most about is her feelings. If she can be happy, it doesn't matter to them whether they recruit a husband or not.

But this thing is too strange.

In the previous life, Lin clearly said that Li Jun met her at the temple fair, why did she change her words now!

Yu Tang couldn't help muttering: "How could this happen?"

Could it be that she couldn't escape the fate of being married into the Li family? !

For a moment, Yu Tang's face became extremely ugly.

Ma Xiuniang and Shuangtao looked at each other.

Yu Tang asked Shuang Tao: "Has Mrs. Tang left?"

Shuangtao said: "Just leave!"

Yu Tang was very anxious, he made up for Ma Xiuniang, raised the curtain and went to find his mother, Mrs. Chen.

Ma Xiuniang could see now that Yu Tang didn't like this marriage, so she quickly pulled Yu Tang away and said, "If you have something to do here, leave me alone. I'll go back first. When you are free here, I will Come home again."

Yu Tang felt very embarrassed, so he stayed with Ma Xiuniang for dinner before leaving.

Ma Xiuniang said bluntly: "Are we still good sisters? If you recognize me as a sister, then don't say anything, just say hello to my aunt, I'll go home first."

Yu Tang hugged Ma Xiuniang and said, "Sister, I'm sorry, we'll meet again later."

Ma Xiuniang nodded straight, and Yu Tang accompanied her to bid farewell to Mrs. Chen.

The black lacquered square table in the middle of the hall was full of gift boxes.

Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Chen are counting the gift boxes.

Knowing that Ma Xiuniang was leaving, Mrs. Chen sent someone to bring some boxes of snacks to Ma Xiuniang, and asked Ma Xiuniang to come to the house frequently, and arranged for Ah Shao to hire a sedan chair, and asked Ah Shao to take Ma Xiuniang back.

Ma Xiuniang resigned from the Chen family, and Yu Tang helped her mother back to the main room.

She said bluntly: "Mom, I want to stay at home."

Mrs. Chen only thought that she was still young and many things were unclear, and said with a smile: "I keep you at home because I am afraid that you will suffer if you get married. But if there is a good family, Dad and your mother will be taken care of by Ah Yuan." Same."

Things really happened as Yu Tang expected.

She said: "I don't know how many people talked well before marriage, but they changed when they got married. Don't listen to Mrs. Tang's eloquence. Mrs. Li has always looked down on people. I don't like such a mother-in-law."

Chen said with a smile: "Silly boy, you haven't spent your whole life with your mother-in-law. Besides, if the husband-in-law is willing to defend you, whose mother-in-law will show the face of the daughter-in-law casually?"

"That's not necessarily true!" Yu Tang said, "Filial piety is the first priority in all things, whose family's husband will contradict his mother-in-law for his daughter-in-law."

Mrs. Chen didn't want to upset her daughter, not to mention that she hadn't said anything about this matter.

She comforted her daughter and said: "Okay, okay, okay, I'll listen to you. When your father comes back, our family will formally visit a few families and make your marriage final."

Seeing that her mother didn't take her words to heart, Yu Tang was very anxious, thinking about how to persuade her parents to change her mind. Ma Xiuniang came to visit Yu Tang again early the next morning.

"Did something happen?" Yu Tang was shocked.

Ma Xiuniang drank a few sips of tea before saying, "A Tang, yesterday I specially asked..." She mumbled "Mr. Zhang" and continued, "Help me to find out about that Li Jun," and then said He also said "Mr. Zhang" as if he had a carrot in his mouth, and said: "Although Li Jun is a bit arrogant, he treats people sincerely, acts frankly, and has good conduct. He is a person who can be entrusted to him for life."

I didn't expect Li Jun to be such a person.

She never thought that Ma Xiuniang would help her like this.

Yu Tang's eyes were moist, and he said: "Thank you sister! Also thank my brother-in-law for me."

After hearing this, Ma Xiuniang blushed and said shyly, "No, no. It's good if I can help you." She asked curiously, "Then you, do you still want to stay at home?"

"I still want to stay at home." Yu Tang said to her thoughtfully, "I always feel that this marriage is not very good."

Ma Xiuniang persuaded her: "What's wrong? He said it all, as long as he can marry you, he would rather come to your family to be his son-in-law. What else do you want? Isn't it just for you?"

Her words gave Yu Tang a sudden enlightenment.

Yup! What is the intention of the Li family marrying theirs

Could it really be her!

In the previous life, their family also sincerely married her into the family, and she was still a widow, but Lin did not treat her kindly.

Could it be because Li Jun's death made Lin's anger on her

But Lin's treatment of Gu Xi is not much better!

Yu Tang pouted in his heart.

She decided to meet her "fiance" whom she had never met in her previous life.

"Is brother-in-law familiar with the second young master of the Li family?" She asked Ma Xiuniang.

Ma Xiuniang said, "What are you doing?"

"I want to meet the second young master of the Li family, and I want to ask my brother-in-law and sister to accompany me."

Ma Xiuniang thought that Yu Tang was afraid of Li Jun's ugly appearance, so he had to see it with his own eyes before he could rest assured, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, the second young master of the Li family is a good-looking talent, I don't know how many people are staring at him and want to recruit him as a son-in-law, I promise not to let him You are disappointed."

Yu Tang smiled.

She didn't want to know what Li Jun looked like at all, she wanted to know how much Li Jun cared about her.

Where on earth did she provoke him, let her sit alone at home, the disaster came from the sky, and the two lives have made her restless.

Ma Xiuniang was afraid that if she refused to agree to Yu Tang, and Yu Tang would not give up and entrusted others to accompany her, something would happen.

She said: "Then wait for me to ask... Mr. Zhang..."

Yu Tang responded with a smile.

After sending Ma Xiuniang away, she called Ah Shao, gave him a dozen copper coins, and said, "You give it to Ah Liu, who sells water in Xiaomeixi, and let him watch the second young master of the Li family, and see what he is doing all day. what?"

The Yu family has only three servants, Mrs. Chen, Shuangtao and Ah Shao. Nothing at home can be hidden from the three of them. A Shao naturally also heard about the second young master of the Li family coming to propose marriage, thinking that the eldest lady must be afraid that the second young master of the Li family would be unworthy of others, and he was also afraid that the second young master of the Li family would not be good enough for their eldest lady, so he hurriedly She responded with a smile, and said: "Miss, don't worry, I won't tell my wife."

Yu Tang simply rewarded A Shao with a dozen coppers.

Two days later, Ma Xiuniang sent someone to write back to her, saying that Mr. Zhang agreed to accompany them to see Li Jun.

Ah Liu also inquired about Li Jun: "The second young master of the Li family invited a friend to eat vegetarian food in Zhaoming Temple."

Yu Tang went to talk to Ma Xiuniang, and the two made a plan, and Mr. Zhang and A Shao would accompany them to Zhaoming Temple to offer incense.
