At the beginning of Shen Shichu, Feng Zhixi had not returned yet.
Liuer holding a Baijuan embroidered peacock lacquer lacquer handle group fan, while gently shaking the group fan, said irritably: "Why haven't you come back? Send someone to see it again."
It's almost two hours, what kind of wine are you eating, I haven't come back for so long.
The maid went out again in a hurry.
Liu Er said: "My mother changed the time of the test to May. Those candidates do not need to be frozen when they are well. But those who are ready to get married after the exam will be uncomfortable." How can marriage be done in June and July . Not to mention that the food is easy to get bad. In such a hot weather, the bride puts on a thick wedding gown, and she has to get fever and get sick.
In previous years, after the test, many people held ceremonies. But since the time of the test was changed, the marriage was moved to September and October.
Pomegranate smiled and said, "This move by the empress dowager has benefited the scholars of the world."
When Liu Er was about to speak, he heard footsteps outside. Liuer stood up hurriedly and greeted him.
Before getting close to Feng Zhixi, Liuer smelled a choking smell of wine: "How much wine did you drink?"
Feng Zhi said with a blushing face: "Liu'er, you must agree to this marriage. Jiaojiao will have a better life after marrying him."
With Xu Wenchang's talents, he will surely be an extremely human minister. Feng Zhixi is very excited when thinking about a female school who will be a Zaifu in the future.
Liuer asked: "Is that so good?"
"Not only does he look good, but his words and deeds are not inferior to those noble boys in Beijing. In addition, he drinks good wines. He is also very humble." Anyway, Feng Zhixi has been completely conquered by Xu Wenchang after a meal of wine.
I heard Liu'er want to see Xu Wenchang too: "I'll see you if you find a chance."
"Then you will meet tomorrow, and then settle their marriage earlier." Anyway, Feng Zhixi already regarded Xu Wenchang as his son-in-law.
Liu Er gave Feng Zhixi a white look: "What's the rush?" This woman has to be more reserved even if she is in love with the other party. If you want to be anxious, you have to make the man anxious, and the woman will drop the price if you panic.
Feng Zhixi hopes to settle Jiaojiao's marriage earlier: "Xu Wenchang is not young anymore. After the marriage is settled, it is estimated that the date of marriage will have to be negotiated." The main reason is that Xu Wenchang is twenty-three, and others. Children of the same age may have been enlightened long ago. Therefore, marriage is definitely about to be discussed when the marriage is decided.
Hearing this, Liu Er was not happy: "I plan to wait until Jiaojiao turns eighteen years old before marrying. Even if we are married, the wedding date must be set at the end of next year."
"Don't worry about this, now I have to quickly settle the marriage." Feng Zhixi was afraid that Liuer would refuse again, and Chenglong would soon change his son-in-law to someone else's.
Liuer said: "Then I will see him in three days!" As a woman, she must be high-profile. Only in this way can I look like my daughter Jingui.
Feng Zhixi was unwilling: "Just the day after tomorrow!"
By coincidence, Cui Qianqian returned to Beijing this afternoon. On the second day, she came to visit Liuer in the British government.
The champion once again asked the matchmaker to seal his family to propose marriage, which caused a lot of trouble in the capital. Although Cui Qianqian had only returned to Beijing, he also heard about it.
The two of them sat down and talked about the family affairs, and then they talked about their children and their relatives. Liu Er said with a smile: "This time you come back, and it's time to set Huihui's wedding date."
Qianqian smiled and said, "Huihui is only sixteen years old, so she is not in a hurry." Both Tong and Tang Jinxiu knew that the woman had a child too early and that it was not good for herself and the child, so they did not urge. The two people meant to wait until Huihui was seventeen years old before going through the door. In this way, when you are eighteen when you give birth, you don’t worry about damaging your body.
"The marriage is set, and it's okay to get married later. Unlike Jiaojiao, the marriage is delayed, and I am almost anxious." It's all her mothers, not saying that cousin marriage is bad for offspring. Otherwise, it will save Jiaojiao directly to Changsheng.
Cui Qianqian was a little surprised: "It's not that Xu Zhuangyuan has already come to ask for a kiss twice. Why, this time you are not ready to agree? I told you that I don't know how many people are staring outside, so I hope you refuse. In this way, They have a chance."
Liuer said with a sad face: "Ah, don't you know that Xu Zhuangyuan was brought up by a widow."
Cui Qianqian asked, "How is the Xu family's family background?"
"I heard that there are only a few mu of Susukino." It was because of the background of the Xu family that Liu Er felt even more incredible: "If you want to change to an ordinary girl, it will be a problem to feed a few children. But the old lady Xu can rely on a young woman. A few acres of Susukida not only raised three children, but also cultivated two sons to become talents. Think about it, this old lady is so amazing! Jiaojiao married, I don't worry."
"But Xu Wenchang is so good, if you miss it, you are not afraid that you will regret it in the future? Aren't you afraid that Jiaojiao will blame you?" The last sentence is the point.
In front of Cui Qianqian, Liu Er never concealed: "If Xu Wenchang was not too good, I wouldn't even consider this family background." The standard for choosing a son-in-law with her was not even a little bit worse.
They all have children and daughters. Cui Qianqian understands Liu Er's entanglement: "What did Lord Ma's say?"
Liu Er said with a bitter face: "My father-in-law and my father-in-law met him in Fuyunlou yesterday, and they almost agreed to the marriage. If it weren't for Jiaojiao's marriage, I had to nod my head, otherwise I would not admit it. The husband must have agreed to this marriage."
"What did Jiaojiao say? The child's opinion is also very important." When Tang Jinxiu and Qianqian made a marriage, Qianqian also hesitated. Later, after listening to Liu'er's suggestion, I asked Huihui and Cui Hangkun what they meant. Only then did I know that the two children had already been interested. Cui Qianqian didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately agreed to the marriage.
Speaking of this, Liu Er's head went big: "I didn't tell her, she still doesn't know about it!"
Cui Qianqian laughed: "I'm so shrewd on weekdays, how can I be stupid this time. There is a lot of rumors outside, and Jiaojiao is not a caged bird that doesn't contact the outside world. How could I not know this."
Liuer's expression changed slightly. With Jiaojiao temperament, if you don't want to run to her early and tell her. Not saying anything now shows that she is actually interested.
Regarding her look, Qianqian knew what she was thinking, and immediately laughed: "All came from a young age. Would you be indifferent if such a handsome and talented man comes to beg you?"
Liu Er said: "With your precedent, I really don't worry about marrying Jiaojiao to Xu's family."
Cui Qianqian smiled and said, "Not all widowhood women are the same as my mother-in-law. There are also some who are very kind and loving."
"I know this. But the problem is that I haven't met Mrs. Xu, and I don't even know her temperament. Just so rashly agreeing to the marriage, I really don't know what to do." After speaking, Liu Er looked at Qianqian. Said: "Not only the husband and wife, but my parents-in-law also think this marriage is very good. It seems that if I refuse, it would be a harm to Jiaojiao."
Even Cui Qianqian also thinks this marriage is very good. But looking at Liu Er's entanglement, Cui Qianqian didn't say what he thought, but said: "In that case, why don't you ask the queen mother for help. In terms of people's eyesight, I think there is no better person than the queen mother. ."
Liu Er shook his head and said, "I haven't seen anyone myself, so it's hard to tell her. I plan to meet Xu Wenchang tomorrow and tell my mother."
Cui Qianqian smiled and said: "After seeing Xu Wenchang, Lord Ma and Lord Guo agreed to this marriage. In case you were convinced by Xu Wenchang's talent after meeting, then they agreed to this marriage. Later Jiaojiao If you have a bad time, you will regret it for the rest of your life."
"Liu'er, some people are good at pretending. The empress dowager can only see the essence of a person through the surface after the wind and rain. And you, these years have passed smoothly, I don't think you have the eyesight of the empress dowager." I think Xu Wenchang is very good, and if she is replaced by her, she will also shake and change her original intention. But to be on the safe side, it's better to let the palm of the dowager palm.
Liu Er couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Then my father-in-law also came from a bloody storm, don't you think his eyesight is not good?"
Cui Qianqian paused, and said, "I respect my uncle very much, but he is far behind the empress mother in choosing a son-in-law." Feng Lianwu had a problem, but Ding Sanyang not only kept her outside room, but also beat her up. He can't get up in bed, which shows the difference in character. But Zaozao and Liuer both lived happily.
After speaking, Cui Qianqian looked at Liuer and said: "Liu'er, men look at people differently from us. For them, talent is the most important thing, and character is second. For us women, character The spleen, appearance, and family background are equally important."
The two have known each other for so many years, how could Cui Qianqian not understand Liuer. Liuer is also a very talented person. Most people may still be able to hold it, but Xu Wenchang is too good. So good, no one who has seen him dislikes him. Including her, she also thinks this is an excellent marriage. Cui Qianqian didn't think that Liuer could refuse with this determination.
When Cui Qianqian said that, Liu Er felt more and more confused. Husband and father-in-law were impressed by Xu Wenchang's talents, and she was also moved by outsiders' comments.
Cui Qianqian said: "My opinion is to let the empress dowager see Xu Wenchang first. If the empress dowager thinks that Xu Wenchang is a man who can be entrusted for life, then it is okay. On the contrary, Xu Wenchang can't agree to this marriage, no matter how good it is. "
When Liu Er heard this, he nodded and said: "I'll go to Baihuayuan in a while."
Cui Qianqian felt that this matter should not be too late, so he got up and left and went home.
When Liu'er arrived at Baihuayuan, Yun Qing and Yuxi were having lunch.
Yuxi ordered Meilan to add a pair of chopsticks, and then said with a smile, "I didn't let the kitchen cook more without knowing that you were here, so let's just eat!" Yun Qing and Yuxi did not change their simple and frugal style. Renlai husband and wife have two dishes and one soup. However, their dishes will not be repeated for a month. Unless Yun Qing or Yuxi find it delicious, let the kitchen make it.
Liu'er has something in her heart, and she won't have any appetite for eating it.
Yun Qing had no appetite looking at Liu'er. Putting down the chopsticks in his hand, Yun Qing asked, "If you have anything to do, let's talk about it first. Let's eat after we finish talking!"
Liuer told about seeing Xu Wenchang tomorrow.
