Chapter 407 Is Ling'er looking for a son-in-law?
Qing Ling watched all this in a daze, not knowing when this was in her previous life.
Everything is so lifelike, as if she is a player in the game, everything is familiar yet strange, the people are all familiar, but the plot is completely unfamiliar.
Oh, she heard it. There was a voice in her mother's room, and it was Mother Lin's voice.
Qing Ling Shi Ran entered the house again, only to see her mother looking at Mother Lin anxiously:
"Nanny, where is Aunt Yue? Is she back? It's already this hour, why is there no news yet?"
It was her mother. She looked haggard and weak, with an anxious look on her face, and her clothes were plain and simple. She looked like she was in her fifties, with strands of white hair on her head.
There is only an ordinary sapphire hairpin on her head, there are only golden lilacs on her ears, and there is only a string of bodhi beads on her wrist, which have turned into jade after being rubbed.
It's not that she can't afford to wear them, she just wants to live a low-key and cautious life, and she's not in the mood to dress up.
Mother Lin is even older, as if she is in her twilight years, with gray hair, wrinkles on her face, and a sad look.
Qing Ling felt very uncomfortable. It seemed like they were not living well at first sight. They obviously had no shortage of money, they had a village and a shop, they had such a nice courtyard, and they lived a leisurely pastoral life. Why were they still not living well?
Besides the Lu family and the Du family, who else could force her to do this?
"Madam, don't be anxious. Madam Yue is a dedicated person, and she knows that the thank you gift we gave her will definitely be generous. She definitely wants to bring this matter together. It's still early, but Madam is too impatient."
After finishing speaking, he sighed sadly, paused for a while and said helplessly:
"The young lady's character, appearance, and skills are all good, and she is very kind and sensible. She will have a generous dowry in the future, which she will never be able to use up in her lifetime. In this small Yunzhou, what kind of husband's family is not worthy of her?
The first two family backgrounds are indeed relatively high, but they dislike the fact that the young lady's biological mother is from an outsider. You adopted her out again, and you still say that you can't reach the level of the legitimate daughter of the Hou family. In fact, you are disgusted, and there is nothing we can do about it.
Later, the wife repeatedly lowered the conditions. As long as the family tradition is upright, as long as she is of the same age as the young lady, as long as the character is upright, gentle and progressive, it will be fine. An ordinary scholarly family or a squire's family will be fine.
But no one can say that they are successful, and they keep saying that they can't reach high. Isn't this disgusting? Even if they despise the young lady, they deserve it!
It’s not that the master is unworthy and is manipulated by the Lu family, these people are also afraid of the Lu family, otherwise they would have spent eight lifetimes in getting married to the young lady, and they would dare to reject us! "
Qing Ling was very surprised. Was the situation of her mother and Du Linghui in her previous life so difficult? No wonder she went to Beijing to marry Ning Jiangsong, no wonder her mother died young.
Linghui is the real daughter of the Marquis House. Even if she is a legitimate daughter, she is also the biological daughter of her scumbag father. The one who will succeed her is her biological brother Du Zhuoyuan. How can she not marry into a squire's family even if she wants to?
What is a squire? To put it bluntly, he is a local rich man!
Sure enough, my mother shook her head helplessly: "But she refused and said she couldn't reach a high level. In fact, it was because she disliked him, so I was forced to find a son-in-law for Ling'er."
"Madam, have you thought about it carefully? Do you really want to find a son-in-law for the young lady? The young lady has not yet had her hair, so there is no need to be so anxious."
Mother Lin's face was full of reluctance.
After a quick pause, Du Linghui hasn't even gotten her haircut yet? Suddenly my heart felt like it was being cut by a knife with hatred.
In this way, my mother in the previous life was only about thirty-six or seventy-seven years old at this time, but she was already haggard and old. She looked more than ten years older than her actual age, as if she was nearly fifty years old!
Even in a dream, she still couldn't bear the pain, and made another note in her heart for Du Zhiqian and Du Baoyi.
The mother’s expression became determined:
"I have been looking for a marriage partner for Ling'er since she was twelve years old. It has been nearly three years since we put down our dignity and dignity, took the initiative to inquire about people, and sent people to visit us. The standards were lowered time and time again, but we were rejected time and time again. Suffered a setback and lost all face.
He also said that he was too high to reach. He was obviously afraid of the Lu family and worried that marrying us would bring disaster or affect their future.
Recruiting a son-in-law sounds unpleasant, but it can prevent Ling'er's future and fate from being in the hands of others, and she doesn't have to marry into someone else's family and suffer the injustice.
Although that child is just a boy, he is handsome, polite, studious and motivated. It doesn't matter if he comes from a poor family. Once he enters our house, as long as he sincerely treats Ling'er well, he will naturally have a good life.
This is our only chance. If we don't succeed this time, I really have nothing to do.
What kind of marriage could Mrs. Lu make for her? It can be seen from the adoption that she only wants to humiliate and suppress us mother and daughter, and does not allow us to live comfortably at all.
Zhi Qian obviously loved Ling'er so much before, but I don't believe that he can't do anything against Lu. He is just cruel, cold-blooded, cowardly and incompetent!
I have heard that many noble ladies in the capital pretend to be concubines or stepdaughters, specifically looking for marriages that are honorable and beneficial to the family, but are actually very ugly inside.
When these poor girls got married, they all suffered a lot and suffered a lot of grievances but no one made the decision. Some even lost their lives. Outsiders still praised their aunt or stepmother for being virtuous.
Father-in-law and Du Feng are gone, no one is supporting us, and none of the clan leaders and elders are willing to uphold justice.
Mrs. Lu will only do more than those noble ladies. I am really worried that Ling'er will fall into that situation in the future, so I would rather recruit a son-in-law.
When Zhiqian left us mother and daughter behind, he said that in the future he could find a son-in-law for Ling'er to take care of me in my old age. Everyone in the clan knew about this and wouldn't stop him too much.
Although recruiting a son-in-law is also a humiliation, but without face but with dignity, Ling'er will not suffer any grievance.
If it is decided this time, she will find an excuse to get married directly. Anyway, she is about to get her haircut, so let’s get things done first! "
Qingling clenched her fists, it was obviously just in a dream, it was obviously just a previous life, why did she feel so uncomfortable?
The one who had trouble with them was not Lu Qingniang, but the little poisonous snake Du Baoyi. Although Du Zhiqian just let it go, he was also shamelessly cold and selfish to the extreme.
As for the poisonous oath that the father and daughter swore to their grandfather, haha, if they believed in karma, how could they do such a thing?
Humph, then let’s create retribution artificially for them, and make them think it’s divine punishment!
Mother Lin sighed and did not object any more. No matter whether she wanted to take a son-in-law or stay in her home, no one would dare to make her suffer.
Although she didn't want Madam to feel anxious and uncomfortable, she still asked the question in her heart:
"Even if you are recruiting a son-in-law, you still need the master's consent, no, it should be Lu's consent.
What if Mr. Lu insists on pushing his wife and young lady to the extreme, and insists on finding an unworthy marriage for the young lady, and is not even allowed to find a son-in-law? "
Qingling saw her mother hanging her head dejectedly, as if she had lost all her energy. After a while, she raised her head and said firmly:
"I have a way, but if it doesn't work, I have to use that trick!"
