Chapter 429 Matchmaker
The marriage between Li Meier and Jiang Shanqing has been settled, but there is still a lack of a matchmaker. Mrs. Li thinks that a matchmaker is very important, so she said, "It's better to find someone with high morals."

Jiang Shanqing had already thought about the candidate, and immediately said, "Grandmother, I've made up my mind, how about asking Xu Daru?"

Xu Daru is a very famous Confucianist, even in the capital, he is also one of the best, and he is also Jiang Shanqing's mentor, which is indeed the best.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Jiang both laughed, and said, "You have to make an agreement with Xu Daru in advance, let's see if he is free that day?"

Jiang Shanqing said, "Tomorrow I will go over and talk to Mr. personally."

Mrs. Jiang immediately thought carefully for him, and said, "OK, just prepare a few snacks, local products made at those homes, and two jars of ginseng wine brewed by your sister. It's not good for your uncle to go with you, let Scholar will accompany you there."

Jiang Shanqing hurriedly said, "I'll do it myself, aunt, sir, you don't have to treat others like this. Also, I'll prepare the gift by myself." Although he grew up in his father-in-law's family since he was a child, he can't ask the matchmaker to let the mother-in-law Give it a present.

Jiang Shanqing is going to be a son-in-law now, Jiang's attitude is much more cordial than before, he smiled, "What are you talking about, you have to spend money to buy something outside, not only is it expensive, but it is not as good as our own."

"Yeah, there will be plenty of places to use silver in the future." What Mrs. Li thought was, Shan Qing is a real kid, and we have to save money for him.

Jiang Shanqing agreed, and went to the cubicle to talk to Li Meier.

After waiting for a while, Brother Jian came over with two fried chestnuts in candied sugar for his grandmother to eat. Mrs. Li took it and asked, "My dear grandson, where did you get it from?"

Brother Jian also had one in his mouth, vaguely said, "Sister... big sister... gave it."

Mrs. Li knew it after thinking about it, and said quietly to Jiang, "I saved Shanqing's money for nothing, look at him, bought chestnuts, and only gave the girl slices to eat."

Jiang smiled, "Don't you think that you always fart after eating too much?"

"Someone bought it for me for nothing, and it's good to exhaust." Mrs. Li had already peeled one and stuffed it into her mouth, then handed the other to her daughter-in-law, and said, "Try it, alas, this must be the Li family's Stir-fried chestnuts in sugar at the dried fruit shop, the sugar they use at home is good, and the fried chestnuts are sweet, fragrant and waxy, not bad. It is expensive, twice as expensive as ordinary fried chestnuts. Oh, boy Shanqing, I really don’t know how to live, and now I’m spending a lot of money.”

While chattering, Mrs. Li ordered Brother Jian, "Go and get some more to eat."

At this age, Brother Jian likes to do some errands, so he went there immediately, and after a while, he came over with a paper bag in his arms. Mrs. Li praised, "You are worthy of my grandson, you are really capable!"

Brother Jian raised his face and said, "My sister said that grandma traded fruit for it."

Mrs. Li took another fried chestnut to eat, and said, "She is so beautiful, I have to exchange it with her, hum! Come, give one to my dear grandson!"

As he said that, he stuffed a peeled chestnut into Brother Jian’s mouth, and Brother Jian ran away bouncing around, and went to learn a word from his sister, squinting his eyes and learning it perfectly, “She is so beautiful, I still have to talk to her.” She changed, hum!"

It was just with a childish voice that made Li Meier and Jiang Shanqing laugh.

Mrs. Li muttered in her room, "What are you talking about, it's just so silly."

Mrs. Jiang laughed so hard that she couldn't stop laughing, holding a pair of twins, and the twins were almost five months old, and now she could sit on her back, looking curiously at her grandmother and then at her mother, two pictures Almost the same small face also laughed out a "giggle" sound.

Jiang Shanqing went to the mountain to meet Xu Daru the next day, greeted Xu Daru, and gave him something, Xu Daru smiled, "Come on, just come, what are you doing with these things, I don't see outsiders."

"It's not out of sight, but I have something to ask the teacher." Xu Daru looked at Jiang Shanqing with a smile, as if looking at his own nephew, his eyes were full of appreciation and love, and asked with a smile, "Are you here now?" Studying well at home, and even rushing to my place, it must be a big deal."

Jiang Shanqing smiled, "It's the marriage between my cousin and I plan to settle it this month. I'm thinking, teacher, please be a matchmaker for Baoshan."

Xu Daru was taken aback when he heard the words, and then looked at Jiang Shanqing with a complicated expression, and said with some joy and emotion in his tone, "This is a great joy, when will it be?"

"25rd."

Xu Daru didn't expect to be so anxious, and said with some complaints, "You hide it tightly, why didn't you mention it before?"

Jiang Shanqing was always embarrassed to say that he was in a hurry, and now that he knew Yuan, there were quite a few people staring at his marriage. If he didn't settle down earlier, he was also afraid that Mei Meier would not feel at ease, so he just explained: "I let Master Siming of the Siming Taoist Temple helped me predict the auspicious date. He said that September 25 this year is the best day in a hundred years. It would be a pity to miss it. After discussing with my grandmother and uncle, I really didn’t want to miss this auspicious date, so I thought about it in advance. set."

Hu Qing, an old servant beside Xu Daru, said, "That's true. As far as I know in our state capital, there are quite a few families that got married that day."

Jiang Shanqing smiled, "Uncle Hu, you have to go to the lively scene then."

Hu Qing smiled, "Even if you don't invite me, I have to go."

Xu Daru didn't know what to think again, looked at Jiang Shanqing and asked again: "I know your aunt and uncle's family background is only average, now you know Yuan, and you will have a bright future in the future, so you just set up your cousin, don't you think it's a pity? I'm afraid their family won't be able to help you in the future."

Jiang Shanqing still smiled, "Teacher, it's not that you don't know me. I only look at people. Family background is not important to me. I never have any thoughts of climbing high."

Xu Daru stared at Jiang Shanqing's face for a while, confirmed that what he said was the truth, and then smiled with his beard, "I did not misread you, I have seen your cousin from a distance, the girl is very good-looking , and has good cooking skills, such a girl is the most IKEA IKEA room, you will be blessed in the future."

Xu Daru thought about the marriage between Jiang Shanqing and Li Meier, and said with emotion again, "It's a good marriage."

Jiang Shanqing was also very happy, and smiled, "Teacher, your whole family will come and have a great time."

"Of course, a glass of Xie Mei wine is indispensable." Xu Daru smiled, seeing that Jiang Shanqing brought wine here today, he asked Hu Qing to take it down and warm it up, preparing to have a few glasses with his lover later.

"Teacher, this wine is brewed by my sister Mei'er herself. It contains more than a dozen medicinal herbs. It is the most nourishing. You should drink a small cup every time on weekdays. Otherwise, it is not good if it is too nourishing." Jiang Shanqing While showing off Li Meier's skills, she reminded the teacher.

Xu Daru gave him an angry look, "Your teacher, am I the one who is greedy for drinking? If I drink this wine well, you will often bring it to me in the future, and it will be regarded as your filial piety to me."

Jiang Shanqing responded with a smile.
