Wear ancient times with a house

Chapter 187 Marriage Cancellation
Xu Zhiqing was also quite guilty. Before leaving to return home, the couple did discuss the ownership of their daughter's marriage.

In fact, it is too early to talk about this matter now.But considering the sudden transfer of his position, it became the consensus of the couple before returning to their hometown to get engaged to their daughter earlier, or even find a way to find another marriage for their eldest son in Jinzhou Prefecture.

Although Xu Zhiqing didn't explicitly sit down with Wang Pu to talk about it, but he did feel sorry for the Yue family, so he could only try his best to explain:

"It's not because I don't want to get married with my eldest brother's family. If I didn't want to, I wouldn't have agreed in the first place. It's just that things have changed now. When I went to the capital to visit my teacher, I happened to know that he was looking after the marriage of my nephew and grandson. It's not..."

Wang Zhen's complexion was even worse. Doesn't this prove that her husband rejected her natal family in order to climb high?

What's more, she said a long time ago that she would not make a deal with her biological daughter's marriage. What does Xu Zhiqing mean by doing this?
Seeing his wife's expression, Xu Zhiqing could only bite the bullet and explain:

"It's not that I asked for it, but it just happened to happen, and Li Shangshu asked a girl from our family, so I can't tell a lie, no..."

"Can't you say it, or don't you want to say it? It's just a grandnephew. How big can it be? Is my natal nephew not enough?"

Wang Zhen was so angry that she spoke a lot louder.

Xu Zhiqing thought that this was the Yue family's house, and it would be even worse if the couple quarreled in the middle of the night and was overheard, so he hurried over and covered his wife's mouth, then lowered his voice and said:
"Listen to me explaining slowly..."

Wang Zhen listened to Xu Zhiqing's words for a while, her face was not so ugly, but she fell into deep thought. No matter who her daughter marries, for Wang Zhen, as long as her daughter can live well.

She thought it would be good to marry back to her natal family, but her husband's consideration was also very reasonable, so she had to be more cautious.

In the end, Wang Zhen sighed and could only nod:
"If that's what you said, then it's not going to happen, right? But, what about the young gentleman you mentioned? What about his family?"

Xu Zhiqing understood his wife, and then explained the husband-in-law he had set for his daughter:
"His family has nothing to say. Both grandfather and father are not very promising, so they help Li Shangshu take care of the family business, but he is really a good child. When Li Shangshu went home to visit relatives, he was in a kind of nephew and grandson. I took a fancy to him, so I picked him out and brought him by my side to train."

Wang Zhen asked suspiciously:
"According to what you said, since he is so good and there are many ladies in Beijing, why bother to go all the way to marry our family? What's more, they haven't met A Miao before, so it's too hasty."

This was another complicated matter, so Xu Zhiqing explained it in a low voice, until Wang Zhen understood, then he was relieved and asked:

"Then let's explain it to the eldest brother's family tomorrow?"

"If you want to talk about it, I don't do such offending things. I'm afraid my sister-in-law will be angry with me, even my mother will scold me for a long time. Sigh..."

Xu Zhiqing nodded in apology:
"It's because I didn't think carefully, so I'll go and talk about it. Let's explain the marriage first, and I'll explain it to my brother in private. What do you think?"

"Well, I don't care about the matter between you two. Anyway, you can explain it clearly."

Over there, Mrs. Li spent the whole day entertaining her brother-in-law, whom she hadn't seen for many years, and finally took a break. After going out for a trip, the mother-in-law who was serving her hurried over and said something to her in a low voice.

Then Li's face was pulled down, fearing that he had heard wrong, he asked again:
"Are you sure that's what she said? Something happened to the marriage?"

Seeing the other party nodding, Mrs. Li frowned and thought about it for a while, but decided to hide it first, not to talk to her husband, and wait to see the Xu family's attitude before deciding what to do.

However, this made her a little uneasy. If she hadn't discussed it with Wang Zhen, Li Shi didn't care too much. After all, it's not like her son won't be able to marry a wife. As soon as Xu Zhiqing came back, there were changes, which inevitably made her doubt the Xu family's attitude.

The more Mrs. Li thinks about it, the more uncomfortable she feels. She can only comfort herself. The Xu family has lived in the south for many years, and they only communicate with each other a few times a year. No way.

On the second day, Xu Zhiqing and Wang Zhen really told the Wang family about it with expressions of apology. They only said that when Xu Zhiqing was in Beijing, Li Shangshu intended to marry the Xu family's daughter to his nephew, but they couldn't. Taking the concubine's daughter as the top, I can only agree.

This is a cover-up, but the two families were not engaged in the first place, and they regretted it. Strictly speaking, there is no problem. Wang Pu was somewhat unhappy.

Since the Xu family wanted to marry their family, why did Xu Zhiqing go to the capital and make an appointment with someone who was better?
Or just don't mention this matter at all, and regret it after mentioning it, it will inevitably make Wang Pu feel offended.

The news brought by Xu Zhiqing really stopped the two families who were discussing the marriage lively.

It was Aunt Song who asked her daughter several times in secret, did she really go back on her word like this?

Wang Zhen couldn't speak, and couldn't bring out her husband's private considerations, so she could only nod silently.

When others were worried because of this oolong, Song Yun was relieved. If Xu Miao and Wang Yun were really together, it would be fine if the child was born without any problems. It's a pity for them.

As it is now, it is not bad if the two families are married separately and are still relatives.

Anyway, when Xu Zhiqing came back, even if the two families had some conflicts, the Song family still had to meet, so they went to the Wang family in a carriage again.

Almost as soon as Song Jun saw Xu Zhiqing, he knew who Xu Run's cousin was following. Xu Zhiqing also had an ordinary face, without any good-looking facial features, but not so ugly that it was impressive .

And it is probably because these years in the south have been more nourishing, Xu Zhiqing's belly is quite firm, and he looks like an official. If Wang Pu is more like that kind of standard civil servant, Xu Zhiqing has a kind of official. Oil sub style too.

He saw people with a smile on his lips, and he spoke nicely. Even though he and Song Nian hadn't seen each other for so many years, he still called him "cousin" very affectionately. non-stop.

However, Xu Zhiqing might have something to talk about, and after sitting for a while, he and Wang Pu went to the study to discuss matters.

Wang Pu didn't know what was going on, so he gestured to his younger brother and cousin with his eyes. Seeing that Xu Zhiqing didn't mind, he simply brought them with him. They were all people who were going to take scientific examinations. It would be good to hear more about the affairs of the court.
