I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 19 Li's Plan
Matchmaker Wang came to marry Zhan Feiyu, and the first thing she said was a dowry gift of 100 taels of silver. The Zhan family had saved dozens of taels of silver over the years, not to mention head jewelry, clothing fabrics and so on.

"Mother, agree quickly, this is a great thing!" Mrs. Ma urged excitedly, wishing she could nod instead of Mrs. Zhan, let alone 100 taels, she would agree to it even if it was 50 taels, and the young master of the Zhu family The same age as Da Lang, this is not selling a daughter.

"Xiaoyu is still young, it's too early to talk about kissing." Li's voice was gentle but firm, and the money was touching, but she only had one daughter, let alone 100 taels, even 1000 taels, Li would not agree.

Boss Zhan was silent with a stern face, but he acquiesced to Li's statement without speaking.

Although the Zhan family lived in poverty, they were able to eat and clothe themselves well. Boss Zhan had no ambitions. Even if he wanted to marry his daughter, he would have to wait seven or eight years.

"Sister-in-law, what nonsense are you talking about!" Mrs. Ma, who was imagining the white silver ingots, stared at Mrs. Li as if he had seen a ghost, and shouted loudly, "This is Zhu's house! 100 taels of silver!"

In a hurry, Mrs. Ma stepped forward quickly, and landed one hand on Mrs. Li's forehead, and said blankly: "Sister-in-law doesn't have a fever, why are you talking nonsense!"

"Xiaoyu is only seven years old and is not getting married. Brother and sister, if you like it, let Niuniu go." Li took two steps to avoid it, and a warm hand soothed on Zhan Feiyu's head. She didn't care about Zhan's family affairs, but little She is the mother of the fish!

Let Niuniu go?Ma was stunned for a moment, then slapped him on the thigh, smiling happily, "Yes, I also have a daughter! Matchmaker Wang, since the Zhu family wants to get married, our Niuniu can do it too!"

Zhan Niuniu was only three years old, and when she heard Ma's voice, she sniffed and grinned, "Mother."

"Shut up my mother!" Madam Zhan slapped the table angrily. She is such a shrewd person, how could she look at Ma Shi's idiot!

Ma Shi was stunned for a moment. She didn't dare to talk back to Mrs. Zhan. She could only look at the third Zhan, who was beside her. If this marriage happened, their third room would be the in-laws of Zhu landlord. If it leaks out, it will be enough for them to spend three rooms.

Zhan Laosan looked at Ma Shi who was jumping up and down, and nodded in agreement, "Yes, mother, our Niuniu looks good, although it's a little dark, but when you cover it, it's white, you can see that Niuniu is also clever, maybe She's also a goddess!"

"Yes, Niuniu has a good memory and is smarter than Xiaoyu." Ma nodded hastily and pushed Zhan Niuniu, smiling like a wolf grandmother, "Niuniu, come to memorize the Three Character Classic, at the beginning of life …”

"In the beginning of a person, nature is good." Zhan Niuniu answered fluently, she said it too hastily, and her saliva suddenly flowed down.

Seeing this, Ma hurriedly reached out and touched it, and wiped his wet palm against Zhan Niuniu's clothes. Mai Tai's sloppy movements made people unable to bear to look directly.

Mrs. Zhan glared at the shameful Ma Shi, and then said to matchmaker Wang: "This matter is too sudden, we have to think about it for a few days."

"Old sister is too polite, this is a major event that needs to be considered carefully." Matchmaker Wang nodded. She originally thought that Mrs. Zhan was mean and greedy for money, but she didn't expect that there would still be a fraction of it.

But when she thought of the matchmaking money of [-] taels of silver, the matchmaker Wang had a more friendly attitude and said with a crisp smile: "Old sister, I will come to the door to ask for a cup of tea on the tenth day of the first year."

After sending the matchmaker Wang away, the main hall of the Zhan family fell into a dead silence.

Mrs. Ma was unwilling in all kinds of ways, grabbed the third son of Zhan and kept mumbling, "You said that we will give Wang matchmaker some money in private. Is this marriage Niuniu's? Anyway, sister-in-law is not uncommon."

"Shut up, Landlord Zhu has taken a liking to Xiaoyu's talent in reading!" Zhan Lao San was also shocked by 100 taels before, and when he calms down, he will know Landlord Zhu's family's plan, and he will aim at Zhu's family's plan With ten thousand family wealth, what kind of daughter-in-law can't be found.

"My Niuniu is not bad, she can recite the "Three Character Classic"!" Ma Shishou replied unwillingly, his eyes swept across the upper lip of the small stool, Zhan Feiyu with red teeth and white teeth. With a nose, why does this girl, Xiaoyu, look different.

Old man Zhan knocked on the cigarette stick on the edge of the table and looked at Zhan's family with different expressions, "Okay, do whatever you need to do! Come in, old lady."

Mrs. Zhan's face was stern, and she glanced at Mrs. Ma with a gloomy look, and she shyly shrank to the back of Mr. Zhan's back before entering the bedroom.

"You take Xiaoyu to the market later, I'm going to the field." Boss Zhan saw that there was nothing wrong, he picked up his hoe and planned to go to the field.

Back in the room, Zhan Feiyu looked at the worried Mrs. Li and couldn't help holding her hand, "Mother, don't worry, since Landlord Zhu has seen my talent for reading, there is room for negotiation on this matter."

"Lord Zhu has accumulated virtue and done good deeds for many years, and it would be good to marry into the Zhu family." Li shi looked at the stunned daughter, but laughed, and hugged the person on her lap and said softly, "Xiaoyu, rather than being breastfed by you in the future. Your second uncle has calculated your marriage, the Zhu family is better, and the Zhu family is willing to study for you."

Thinking that Zhan Feiyu was still studying hard under the lamp when she woke up in the middle of the night, and thinking that she used a brush to write with water over and over again to save money, Mrs. Li felt distressed.

Although Li thinks that reading is important, the most important thing in a woman's life is marriage. The Zhu family is rich, and the landlord and his wife Zhu are almost seventy. Maybe they can't wait for Xiaoyu to marry.

In the future, Xiaoyu will have to separate as soon as they get married. There are no in-laws on the top and no concubines on the bottom. Even if Zhu Peng is not successful, Mrs. Li believes that with her daughter's intelligence, she will live a good life.

Zhan Feiyu looked back at Mrs. Li behind him, and asked dumbly, "Mother, why did you refuse before?"

Mrs. Li sighed, no matter how smart Xiaoyu is, she is still a child after all, "Silly girl, it's not a business, just for 100 taels of silver, if we don't agree, your grandma will agree, and even if you want to marry, you must Stay at home for seven or eight years, and no one can deceive you in the future."

The big room did not agree with the marriage. Even if Mrs. Zhan forcibly called the shots, she would not dare to offend the big room.

The mother turned out to be playing this abacus!Zhan Feiyu nodded instructed, watching Li Shi's sullen qi that had accumulated in his brows for many years swept away, and Zhan Feiyu swallowed his refusal when he reached his lips.
