I personally think that it is not sad to have no husband. It is shameful that I don't even have an adulterer, but I have become the opposite of the chaste women in Yangzhou City.
This fact is a bit sad.
Back then, when I was just getting married, my father didn't have the slightest willingness to throw me out as a basin of water. All the talented young men from Yangzhou City as far away as Suzhou and Hangzhou flocked to them regardless, and there was an endless stream of people who came to propose marriage. Absolutely, in the town day, the cars are like flowing water and horses, and the noise is so loud that even the two stone lions outside the gate of our house can't wait to turn into a live roar and mix with one voice.
However, three years will pass, but things are different, and the seas and fields are vicissitudes. In my opinion, now my father is holding a water-splashing festival with great fanfare and claiming to splash my pot of water out. I am afraid that one or two mosquitoes will not be attracted, not to mention the so-called young talents and so-called aristocratic sons. The golden tortoise-in-law.
In fact, it's not their fault. It's not that I've become old and half-sexy in the past three years. Although I don't know exactly what beauty counts as a beautiful figure, of course, every time I take a selfie in the mirror, I secretly think that I am now more than three. It was even better a year ago. Of course, it's definitely not because our Shen family's family business has declined in the past three years, and the merchant pawnshops have all closed down. On the contrary, Daddy's business has grown bigger and bigger. .
But, how did you scare away so many sons and brothers? There is of course a very deep reason for this.
I touched my slightly bulging belly and thought deeply...
No one wants to change from "golden turtle son-in-law" to "tortoise son-in-law", right? Everyone likes ready-made things, but if this ready-made thing is a baby doll that is about to fall to the ground, I am afraid that it will be avoided.
I have always been an upbeat and enterprising person, and sitting still is not my style. Since I am no longer a yellow flower girl in the waiting room, I naturally don’t have many taboos. Instead of being bored at home and waiting for someone to come to the door to propose a marriage, it is better to make one or two matchmakers who often go out on a blind date to pass some free time. Find a merciful and generous lover as soon as possible to marry.
It's just that, because of my reputation, the young masters in Yangzhou City are terrified whenever they hear the word "Shen", let alone a blind date. However, the matchmakers in the Iceman Hall were very skillful in persuading the young masters who could not come to the local area, but they found a new way to hit the men who were out of town in Yangzhou Chadao for the first time.
For example, today, the son of Ma, I heard that he was a Shanxi merchant from Shanxi. He admired the gentleness of Jiangnan women, and wanted to take advantage of the month of doing business in Yangzhou to marry a sweet wife and return to his hometown.
The matchmaker Liu from the Iceman Hall came to ask me about my intention yesterday. I weighed it a bit. One was not an official in the court, and the other was not a very wealthy person, but a small businessman, so I agreed. Today, Mr. Ma booked a private room in Fuchun Building, the largest restaurant in the city, and invited me to meet him.
Now, the two of us are sitting face to face in this private room called Yasong Pavilion, while the matchmaker Liu is sitting on my right.
I glanced at this young master Ma from the corner of my eye, and suddenly my eyes were filled to the brim, and I could barely tell where the matchmaker Liu was sitting.
Uh, this Ma Gongzi looks really rich, with a round face and a round waist and a round belly.
I lowered my head and eased my eyes. My heart said, whether it is round or not, I hope his heart is as round and broad as his belly.
I wore a slanted embroidered robe today. The color is elegant and not complicated. Although I was pregnant in April, I didn't see much pregnancy, but I still let the embroidery girl relax a little at the waist. v 辅 雒 malaria
Just like the appearance of a female assassin on the stage.
Unexpectedly, this round Mr. Ma and I looked at each other and then his eyes were immediately red and bright, just like a gentleman on the beam at night when he saw someone's yellow and white things, he eagerly rubbed his hands, as if he didn't know how to speak.
Matchmaker Liu smiled triumphantly, her tongue shining with a lotus flower, "Young Master Ma, this is the eldest lady of the Shen family, the most famous beauty in Yangzhou City."
I chewed and chewed, a simple sentence, but quite a bit particular. First, when the matchmaker Liu mentioned the word "Shen's family", she put emphasis on it, and after a pause, even the cats passing by on the eaves could hear the mystery, not to mention real people. Throughout the country, no one knows that the business of the Shen family in Yangzhou dominates the world. There is a saying in Jiangsu and Zhejiang that "ten shops and seven sinks" is the best portrayal.
Second, I thought that any woman with decent facial features was considered a beauty when she was called by a matchmaker, and I could afford the word "most prestigious". The ups and downs of the past and the baby in my belly made me a household name in Yangzhou city.
Therefore, I gathered my eyebrows and accepted the words of the matchmaker Liu. After listening to this sentence, Young Master Ma's eyes shone even brighter, and he rubbed his hands together again, and he couldn't wait to fold his hands and bend over and said, "Sure enough, Xiaosheng Ma Tianbao is very polite."
Tian Bao... uh, it's a very festive name, and it goes well with it.
I nodded slightly towards him, "Young Master Ma is polite." I gently stepped on Matchmaker Liu's feet under the skirt.
What kind of person is the matchmaker Liu? Naturally, she understood it immediately. She hurriedly picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea for Young Master Ma. She observed her expression and said, "I wonder how Young Master Ma feels about Miss Shen's family?"
The round-looking Young Master Ma hurriedly said, "Very good, very good, and it couldn't be better. It's like a fairy from the Nine Heavens descending to earth, not to mention other things, it's a good fortune for three lives for Ma to meet him today."
The matchmaker Liu covered her mouth with a smug and reserved smile, then coughed and said, "There is one more thing! I heard that Ma Gongzi has been passed down from three generations, and the heir is thin. It happened that Miss Shen fell into a dream one night before April, and dreamed of sending her son in the monstrous water. Avalokitesvara's golden glow flashed by, and the next day I was diagnosed with a happy pulse..."
"Miao'er?"
I was amazed that this matchmaker Liu's eloquent words turned sex into a miraculous fabrication, and I was listening with gusto when I heard a rather familiar voice calling my name, which cut off the impromptu storytelling of the matchmaker Liu. Thinking about it, Mr. Ma still hasn't heard the crux of the problem.
Looking up, I saw that the young man in blue shirt, Bai Fengqing, was leading the way into the cabinet, and when he saw me, he appeared to be somewhat surprised. This person was not Pei Yanzhen. Which is it.
As soon as the boy who rashly pushed the door and led the way looked up and saw someone, he immediately panicked: "I'm really sorry for disturbing all the guests." He turned around and said to Pei Yanzhen: "Master Pei, it was a small mistake. The Yasong Pavilion has been reserved by Mr. Ma long ago, and the empty Tingfeng Pavilion is next door, please follow the little one."
Pei Yanzhen looked at me, then looked at the other two, and smiled gently, "It's not in the way, it's just abrupt to everyone Yaxing." He said to the servant, "You can go as soon as I say hello and apologize."
In this room, the matchmaker Liu stood up in fear, blessed Pei Yanzhen, and said in awe, "Men's wife Liu Chen has seen Mr. Pei."
That Mr. Ma was indeed a businessman, he was very alert, and stood up immediately, only to hear the matchmaker Liu hurriedly introduce him: "Mr. Ma, this is Mr. Pei, the prefect of our parental official in Yangzhou City." Then he said to Pei Yanzhen: "Master Pei, this is Young Master Ma Tianbao who came to Yangzhou to do business."
"The Caomin has seen Master Pei, and he has long been honored by the name of Master Pei's honesty and integrity. I met him today, and I am lucky to have three lives!" Master Ma hurriedly bowed to Pei Yanzhen. These three lives are really short.
Pei Yanzhen smiled and nodded as a return gift, and said in a hurry: "Where, Ma Gongzi is wrong. This is not a yamen, you don't need to stick to these many etiquettes, just sit down and talk."
Seeing him standing, Liu and Ma didn't dare to take their seats, both of them stood there indifferently, not knowing what to do. Pei Yanzhen turned to me and said, "Miao'er, why are you here?"
Well, this question is very mysterious.
One man, one woman, one matchmaker, one private room, the obvious answer, but when I looked up and met his clear watery eyes, I didn't know how to interface. In fact, what I want to ask more is how do you recognize me at a glance when I look like a female assassin
Matchmaker Liu's tongue-in-cheek lotus kung fu disappeared at the moment, nothing at all, and she just lowered her head and thought she was a stool.
At this moment, Young Master Ma enthusiastically interjected: "Lord Pei is laughed at, Miss Shen and I are on a blind date."
"Oh~? Blind date?" Pei Yanzhen looked unpredictable.
"Exactly." Ma Gongzi's round face flew into two shy blushes, which made me look at it for a while, and then listened to him: "I don't want Lord Pei to recognize Miss Shen."
Pei Yanzhen looked at me very kindly and said, "It's not just recognition."
Fearing what he might say, I hurriedly intercepted: "Master Pei and I are relatives."
"Ah?" Ma Tianbao was curious, "I don't know what relative?"
"Master Pei is my distant mother-in-law, and the distant mother-in-law of my direct relative." It is not a false statement, every word is true, and there is an imperial decree to prove it.
Immediately, Ma Tianbao shone like a gold ingot smashed on the forehead, "Since we are a family, we don't need to divide into two rooms, and please invite my uncle to sit together." The blush on the round face was abruptly formed from two shy patches into two balls.
family? Uncle
I shook, and Pei Yanzhen seemed to be stunned for a moment.
Shy, shy!
Ma Tianbao didn't care, and pulled Pei Yanzhen to sit down.
Pei Yanzhen looked at me with a gentle smile, "It's better to be respectful than to obey." He lifted his clothes and sat down gracefully.
A square table, the formation is now formed, Ma Tianbao is opposite me, Pei Yanzhen is sitting on my left, and the matchmaker Liu is sitting on my right and opposite Pei Yanzhen. The matchmaker Liu looked remorseful, as if she wished she could shrink into a cup immediately.
Ma Tianbao warmly poured tea, cloth and vegetables for Pei Yanzhen, while affectionately called "little uncle" and "little uncle" for short. accept.
I was about to take a sip of tea, but I didn't want Pei Yanzhen to put my hand over the hand I was holding the cup, "Miao'er, your stomach is not good, this green tea is cold and cold, besides, you are not feeling well now, it is better not to drink it. ."
Ma Tianbao looked at my uncle's hand folded on the back of my hand, the round flesh on his face twisted, and muttered: "Little uncle is so considerate..."
Under my sharp eyes, Pei Yanzhen shook my hand before releasing it, and calmly said modestly, "Generally, this is my duty."
Before he finished speaking, the door was pushed open again with a hoot, and a person stood outside the door with a golden robe and jade belt and sighed: "What a gust of wind! It actually blew the door open!"
Then, he raised his eyes and glanced around the room, pretending to be surprised, he put the folding fan in his palm and knocked, "Ho! This is not Miaomiao and Master Pei! What a coincidence! It's a good coincidence! As the saying goes, where in life we don't meet, a strong wind calls out. You and I met here by chance."
Half of my face was darkened, and I was sure that I saw that Song Xiyuan pushed open the door by himself, so I said bluntly, "Young Master Song is joking, there is no wind at all."
"Is there no wind?" Song Xiyuan seriously stretched out his hand to probe the surrounding atmosphere, and walked inward while talking to himself, "That's why this door is too soft to open without wind. Old Chen, do you think so? "
A middle-aged servant stood behind him with a coffin face, and solemnly stretched out his hand and shook the poor door leaf and said, "What the third son said is indeed weak." His subordinates succumbed to the ground and died.
Song Xiyuan shrugged innocently, with a look on his face, look at what I said, suddenly, with a smile on his face, he closed the folding fan and said, "Yo! Isn't this matchmaker Liu?".
"I've seen Third Young Master, but thanks to Third Young Master's good memory, he still remembers his old self. I'm really scared." Matchmaker Liu smiled reluctantly at Song Xiyuan's blessing.
"Why can't I remember, who in Yangzhou city doesn't know about Liu matchmaker? Besides, Liu matchmaker invites Miaomiao on a blind date every day. She is so enthusiastic and touching! Calling Xi Yuanming into Wunei, I don't know how to repay." Song Xiyuan laughed even more. brilliant.
Matchmaker Liu twisted uncomfortably and immediately fell silent.
Pei Yanzhen sipped the tea lightly, and the wind was so light that it was like a master outside the Great Wall.
A burst of sadness arises in my heart... Today's events are so disturbed, I'm afraid it's not bad luck.
Sure enough, after a flash of thought, he saw Song Xiyuan resting his elbows on Ma Tianbao's shoulders, "This young master, are you a chaperone today?"
That son Ma stared blankly at Song Xiyuan. He didn't know how to deal with it for a while, so he replied, "It's right here." It's so pitiful... From my heart, I often don't know how to deal with Song Xiyuan. Besides, Song Xiyuan seems to have something bad. Addiction, specially pick soft persimmons to pinch.
"Since you are the village, why did you only invite Master Pei and not me?" Song Xiyuan's eyes rolled, and he seemed very aggrieved.
"Gah?" Ma Tianbao was obviously unable to keep up with Song Xiyuan's strange thoughts.
"It's also Miaomiao's ex-husband, why is Mr. Pei among the invited ones, and I, Song San, were left out?" Lightning flashed, I knew... I knew...
"Ah?" Ma Gongzi's chopsticks fell to the ground, "Ex-husband? Isn't Mr. Pei your uncle?"
"Little uncle?" Song Xiyuan lifted his elbows and said solemnly: "I don't want to spend a meal, so the address is so friendly? Speaking of which, Mr. Pei, Song forgot to call you little uncle in the past. Offended, many offended."
Pei Yanzhen said indifferently: "It's okay. I don't want to accept your nephew and son-in-law."
"Little uncle... ex-husband..." Ma Gongzi murmured in confusion, apparently not entangled.
Song Xiyuan bent down to pick up chopsticks for him, placed them on the table, and said kindly, "This little uncle Pei is Miaomiao's ex-husband, and of course, I am also Miaomiao's ex-husband."
With a word that woke the dreamer, Ma Gongzi's face shuddered with blessings, and he trembled magnificently, and said, dumbfounded, "Ah!
One word decides the world.
"Incisive!" Song Xiyuan praised with a slap in the palm of his hand. Pei Yanzhen gave him a warm and cool look, but Song Xiyuan immediately stopped talking.
It's just that Young Master Ma was obviously immersed in a nightmare and couldn't extricate himself, and he kept saying to himself, "Incest... incest... two ex-husbands... two... ex-husbands...?"
"The Exotic Land Reclamation of Vegetable Skeletons"
Seeing that he was staring at me with a look of wanting to ask, but didn't dare to ask, I sighed, that's all, it seems that today's blind date is definitely not going to happen, so I asked him sympathetically, "Master Ma wants to ask me which ex-husband is more? "
Hearing this, Young Master Ma's body trembled violently, rolled his eyes, and passed away.
Ai? How can today's son and brother be so fragile? It's really frustrating.
It's a shame that even a weak woman like me has never experienced emotional ups and downs like him~
Of course, the reason why Pei and Song are my ex-husbands is not simply because I am his ex-wife...
