The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2077 Simple and Sensitive
"Yes." Dou Xiaoguo was a little excited: "The son-in-law is waiting for a letter from his father-in-law in the mansion. When the time comes, let the son-in-law arrange everything. I don't know what your father-in-law thinks?"

"Okay, this matter is up to you to arrange." Xuan Shijing said.

If two families want to meet, there must be a middleman, and it is most suitable for this middleman to be his future son-in-law. You can't let your daughter show up in public, right?

In the afternoon, Dou Xiaoguo returned to Chang'an, while Xuan Shijing returned to the Xuan family mansion.

As soon as he entered the hall, the good guy, the old lady, Jin Yang, Qin Bingyue, and An An were all waiting in the hall. As soon as Xuan Shijing entered the door, all eyes fell on him.

An An wanted to get married, even the old lady was concerned about it. After all, she was her own granddaughter. The girl who grew up in the palm of her hand was now a big girl, and she was looking for her husband's family.

It also means that the family will lack someone in the future.

"Jing'er, how's the talk going?" The old lady asked first, she didn't speak, and everyone else present couldn't say anything.

"It's okay." Xuan Shijing said with a smile: "I think that kid Dou Xiaoguo, although he was not very good before, but now, it seems like a different person, barely in my eyes, to be our son-in-law , barely qualified."

"Reluctantly?" The old lady said: "This is An An's lifelong event, but you can't be sloppy. What's the matter with you being reluctant? Are you serious about doing this as a father?"

"Of course." Xuan Shijing said: "My own daughter's marriage, as a father, can I not care about it? I said reluctantly because although Dou Xiaoguo has been appointed as the Minister of Rites after Guan Guan, but This child, in terms of being an official, is still a little innocent, after all, he is a young master who grew up under the protection of a wealthy family, and he will definitely suffer in the officialdom in the future. If An An marries him, I still have some concerns about this."

"This..." Hearing Xuan Shijing say this, Qin Bingyue's face turned pale.

The incidents in the officialdom will involve the whole family, which is an extremely serious consequence, because Qin Bingyue has experienced it personally, her father was an official, but because she did not take refuge in Li Yuanjing, she was placed as a traitor All the men in the family were beheaded and all the women were exiled for the crime.

The situation in the officialdom is changing, and my husband said that Dou Xiaoguo is a relatively simple child, can he handle it?
In An An's eyes, there was a flash of anxiety.

Could it be that my father didn't agree to this matter?

Jin Yang nodded thoughtfully, and said, "I've seen that kid Dou Xiaoguo before. Although he behaved a little out of line when he was young, he was also a relatively simple-minded kid. He didn't sit in any The extremely bad thing has something to do with his growth environment. However, since the death of Dou Dan, the child Dou Xiaoguo has undergone great changes. This is also related to the death of his father. After Dou Dan passed away, Dou Xiaoguo Even if he was left out in the cold in the Dou family, after all, he is not the child under the eldest son of the eldest son, and he did not say that he was given too much attention. Under such circumstances, the child's mind should be more sensitive, simple and sensitive , in the officialdom, you may not be able to get along."

When it comes to delicate thoughts, a gentleman like Xuan Shijing is no match for his wife.

Because it was related to An An's marriage, Jin Yang had already worked hard to get to know Dou Xiaoguo when Xuan Shijing was still outside.

"Furthermore, whether it is the Dou family or our Xuan family's current power, there is no need to ask Dou Xiaoguo to do anything in the officialdom. In the future, he will have a family and a career. As a man, he can support his wife and children. That's enough. Isn’t it?” Jin Yang said: “It’s better to be simple and take An An to heart, it’s better than anything else, if there are twists and turns, wouldn’t we be more worried?”

What Jin Yang said also made some sense, Xuan Shijing nodded.

However, Dou Yan's attitude forced Xuan Shijing to pay attention to it, but this matter cannot be brought up in the open, so let's ask Jin Yang privately in the study later.

She is in Zhuangzi, so she should have a general understanding of these things in Chang'an, at least more detailed than her understanding.

"Mingda is right." The old lady also echoed: "Furthermore, I have also seen that child Dou Xiaoguo. If he really treats An'an well, the two of them can live together in the future. There is something wrong in the world, it is your men's business outside, you are a father-in-law, is it possible that you can ignore the difficulties of your son-in-law in court? There will be a helper at least no."

"What mother said is true." Xuan Shijing nodded and replied: "If that's the case, I will write to Chang'an tomorrow and ask Li Chunfeng to help count the days. Set it down, get engaged first, and then delay the matter of getting married, if An An gets married now, she is too young."

Xuan Shijing didn't like her daughter marrying someone as a daughter-in-law at the age of 16. In Xuan Shijing's eyes, a 16-year-old girl was still a child.

"It's so good." The old lady said: "Actually, it's just right for An An to get married at this age."

The old lady's thinking is still the same, and there is no big change, but she doesn't care much about the Xuan family's affairs on weekdays.

The Xuan family already has a more capable mistress, so she will be happy to enjoy life in peace.

After speaking in the front hall, An An returned to the courtyard with her mother Qin Bingyue with a shy face. At this moment, the girl may not know how happy she is.

The daughter is outgoing and breaks the father's heart.

The old lady also went back to her yard to continue reading scriptures.

As for Xuan Shijing, he winked with Jinyang, and the couple went to the study together.

After entering the study, Xuan Shijing closed the door of the study.

"Husband? What is so mysterious?" Jin Yang asked curiously seeing Xuan Shijing's appearance like this.

"There is something I want to discuss with you." Xuan Shijing said, "Let's sit down and talk."

Jin Yang and Xuan Shijing found a chair in the study and sat down together.

"Husband, please tell me." Jin Yang said.

"It's about the Dou family." Xuan Shijing said: "Although Dou Xiaoguo has nothing wrong with the child, I am very curious about the attitude of the Dou family."

"The Dou family's attitude?"

Xuan Shijing nodded: "That's right, Dou Xiaoguo told me during lunch. I have doubts in my heart, so I want to ask Madam for advice."
