The peasant girl is not strong

Chapter 198 Miss Loves Scholar

Mrs. Zhao listened to her husband's words, read the letter again, nodded and said:

"Okay, let the butler handle this matter tomorrow. I already have a candidate in my mind. Since the Tang Mansion wants to invite Mr. Musical Instruments, and there are men and women in the mansion, then each man and woman should invite a gentleman. I happen to know such a couple. , they should agree."

Mr. Zhao didn't know for a while, which couple the wife was talking about, and asked:

"Ma'am, can I clarify?"

Hearing the words of their husband and wife, the steward showed a smile on his sleepy face. If the matter can be done as soon as possible, he can go back as soon as possible.

And if you come with a mission, you must ask your husband to go back with you. If you can’t do this, he has to wait here. The sooner this matter is done, the better.

"Master, have you forgotten my distant relatives? They are just small rich families, and their daughters are also pampered. They know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Later, under the pursuit of so many princes in the capital, they want to marry a scholar. Poor scholar."

"Ma'am, I remembered. At that time, you said that this woman has such a good moral character. It's a pity that she didn't marry into our family. Why did she marry a poor scholar? It became a joke."

"It's hard to say about this marriage. The young lady fell in love with a poor scholar. This poor scholar is good-looking and knows how to play chess, calligraphy and painting. He is lucky to be able to marry a rich family, but his luck is not good in the future. He has been admitted as a Jinshi or above, and has always been a scholar."

As a woman, Mrs. Zhao can understand that if she likes a person, she will marry him, but this relative likes a poor scholar, so that his life will not be difficult in the future. Renting a house in Kyoto, life is easier said than done.

Falling out with the family is even more difficult, the road is chosen by themselves, and all the ups and downs can only be carried by themselves.

"The poor scholar who took the exam in Beijing felt that the lady from the rich family failed to pass the exam, but could only stay in the capital. The couple could not return to their mother's house, so they could only rent a house and do some casual work for a living. He might as well bring his wife home. .”

Mr. Zhao believes that a man cannot give his wife a better life. For example, this scholar cannot give a daughter a better future. He is not like a man. This is a weak man. Miss Qianjin is blind.

"Master, this young lady had a falling out with her family, but she still missed her natal family, and wanted to wait for her natal family to forgive them one day. Another reason is that the scholar didn't give up on continuing the exam."

As a relative of Mrs. Zhao, when this lady got married, she didn't get the family's understanding, and she didn't have any dowry. He even secretly gave this lady a little dowry.

Maybe this young lady and her husband have been living in the capital for more than half a year, and they haven't been able to have any long-term work, because they are the role models of some rich men in the capital.

Someone also intentionally interfered with this scholar's work, maybe this scholar's rival in love, the rich young man wants you to fail in his job, so you can only do nothing and rely on your wife to support you.

This daughter has been relying on her dowry to make ends meet. The scholar came out to look for a job and couldn't find it. He stayed in the capital with nothing to do and failed to pass the exam. This matter has always become a hot topic in the capital.

Some storytellers told this story, and some elders from rich families used this incident as a topic to warn young people not to act arbitrarily and in vain. They must follow the orders of their parents and the words of matchmakers, otherwise they will not be happy.

The couple talked about each other, um, the background of these two gentlemen was probably told.

The managers felt that as long as they could invite a gentleman, they didn't need to take care of other things.

Regarding things in the capital, they have been away from the capital for 30 to [-] years, and they don't even know what happened recently.

After deciding to invite Mr., Mrs. Zhao asked the manager to go down to have a meal and rest in advance, and this matter was left to her.

The manager withdrew, and Mrs. Zhao wrote a letter overnight, and sent the letter to the relative's house the next day.

The couple rented a small courtyard in the capital. In order not to be too shabby, the rent for this courtyard was not cheap.

As a young lady, she should have a dowry when she gets married, such as a store and a house, as a dowry, but she can't get the blessing of her family. She wants to marry with all her heart, but her family was angry and didn't give her any dowry.

The couple have lived in this courtyard for more than half a year, and have been using some of her money when she was a girl. Some elder relatives saw her insisting on getting married, and couldn't bear her living too hard, so they gave some money. Dowry to her.

Especially Mrs. Zhao, she would always ask her to do something to supplement the family income.

Her husband couldn't find a job, so he could only earn a living by setting up a writing stall outside. However, his calligraphy and paintings were also difficult to sell. I don't know if it was because of man-made reasons, and he couldn't even earn money to support his family.

Even so, the couple did not hire workers to take care of them. The appearance of the man has not changed. Although he is a poor scholar, the clothes he wears cannot be said to be noble, but there are no patches. suave.

Let the girl see him, and she has such a thought in her heart, no wonder this young lady is desperate to marry him, it's for his appearance, and for his love.

More women think that she is stupid, she will not be a rich lady, or a rich lady, but a poor scholar's lady. In the past, someone would help pour tea, wash clothes, and have a carriage and sedan chair to sit in when going out.

As a scholar's wife, she has to do three meals a day, wash clothes and clean everything, and also walk out to buy vegetables, and take care of her husband's daily life.

In an instant, a rich lady turned into a yellow-faced woman.

In the past half a year, this young lady didn't seem to lose her yearning for life due to the hardships of life. The couple are still so affectionate and loving. While worrying about money, they didn't lose their fighting spirit for life.

The wife thinks that the husband will not always be like this, even if he fails the exam, he will not always be mediocre. The difference now is just a little luck.

With the support of his wife, as a husband, he also thinks that he is just a bit unlucky, even if he fails the exam with his talent, it is more than enough to become a certain gentleman, and it is no problem to enter the academy to teach and educate people.

The couple has always been a hot topic in the capital. As a husband, I am embarrassed to go to the academy to apply for a job, and I always think he still has a chance.

In the morning, the wife prepared breakfast, and after the couple had breakfast, the husband was going to set up a stall again, and the wife helped clean up, when there was a knock on the door of their small yard.

The couple glanced at the courtyard door and felt a little surprised who was looking for it?

Is it rent again?Isn't it the date to pay the rent?

"Husband, I will open the door."

"Miss, clean up the dishes, someone is coming, you should open the door for your husband."

"Well, okay!" The wife took a look at their small living room, it was indeed inconvenient for guests to come, and the dishes were not cleared, so she quickly packed the dishes and went into the kitchen.

The scholar went to open the gate of the yard, and saw a Zhao family housekeeper he had seen before. He had seen this Zhao family housekeeper before. He was a servant of his wife's relatives and had given gifts to their family.
