The skilled widow is busy farming

Next, Xiuniang waited at home with Mrs. Zhou, and mothers from each family came to visit their homes and chat with each other about the situation.

In fact, it also depends on the character of Erlang's mother. This is also very important. Whether Erlang is good or not depends on his parents-in-law.

Father-in-law usually rarely cares about his daughter-in-law, because men and women are different. Even if he has dissatisfaction, he will tell his wife and let her talk to her daughter-in-law. Therefore, the mother-in-law is very important.

The first family is the son of a fourth-rank official family. He is not the eldest son, but a concubine, but he still has fame and good conduct in all aspects.

Although his official position was not high, the old lady was the daughter of the Marquis, and the old man was the man who was a prostitute, and the couple had been in love all their lives.

The grandson in question this time was born to her son’s concubine.

The legitimate children in his family were one boy and two girls. His wife hurt her body when giving birth to her little girl, and almost died from dystocia and severe bleeding. Later, the boys were weak, so they chose a good girl to bring in the family for the purpose of spreading the family.

The child was raised in front of the head wife, and he was raised according to rules. If he didn't tell me about his parentage, you would think he was his legitimate son.

The good thing about this family is that the eldest lady is warm-hearted, honest and not good at playing tricks. She always says whatever she wants and has a cannon temper. Such people are easy to deal with.

Her mother-in-law's family is quite high-ranking, she is a second-grade official, and her connections are pretty solid.

If you can raise a concubine to be a good person, you will know that his character is good. The family population is very simple. The eldest daughter is already married, and the younger daughter is still waiting to be married, so she is not old enough.

If Qing'er can get married, it won't take much trouble. All he has to do is wait for the man to pass the imperial examination and live a small life behind closed doors. He is the eldest sister-in-law's responsibility as housekeeper and director and has nothing to do with him.

The second family was introduced by the Xie family. Mrs. Xie liked Qing'er very much and recognized her character.

He introduced to Mrs. Zhou the son of a noble family, the eldest son at the bottom of the first class. His family's situation was similar. Only his elders died in battle and fell out of touch. Fortunately, there were still men in his family, but they were not suitable to be military generals.

Mrs. Xie has a very good relationship with the other party's wife, and they have been close to each other since they were young.

Moreover, this household has been divided, and the second-in-law and the concubine's head have been divided out. Now the only eldest son is left. The head of the household works in the household department, and the official rank of the fourth rank is not too high.

But the man is very good and works as a daily care worker beside the emperor. He comes from a serious family background.

The only drawback is that there are two brothers and a sister downstairs, and there is also the aunt and grandmother who live in the house of the concubine who was separated, and sometimes they like to come over to play in the autumn breeze. These are all problems left by the deceased old man above.

The third family was introduced by the Xiao family. He was the second son of a first-class noble family. He had an extraordinary appearance. He was just a big family living together. He was a big family and a well-known Lu family.

You know that when a family lives together, there are more problems. It is not easy to be the daughter-in-law of this family, even if there is a clan wife here.

There are the old lady, the eldest lady, the second wife, the third wife, and the fourth wife.

The fourth bedroom is from a concubine, and the third bedroom above is from a direct descendant.

There were ten children under the sun, three girls, and the rest were all boys.

Counting the heads shows that there are many people in this family and many things to do.However, the upbringing is the best among these families.

The connections, official positions, resources and outstanding sons and daughters are also top-notch, and they have the most trivial troubles. There are too many people, and even if they have a good family tradition, they still have to grind their teeth against their tongues.

The second son in question is the youngest son of the eldest wife. The eldest son is already married. The eldest daughter-in-law is the clan's wife. There is also a daughter who has just been engaged. This son is her youngest son.

The Xiao family introduced them to families of the same status and level as themselves. The Lu family was also very influential in the court and belonged to the neutral party.

Finally, there was another family whose children were from a poor family. Their population was very simple. They were Li Rui's classmates, but their children were very motivated and smart. Mrs. Zhou put them last, saying that they were not included in the consideration.From these families, it seems that the Lu family's son is indeed the best, the best in all aspects, Lu Jun, a man with a face as good as a jade, pure and handsome, born as a Tanhualang, and working in Hanlinyuan.

Why do you like the Li family? Seriously speaking, the status of the Lu family, a well-known family, is much higher than that of the Li family. If this marriage is really going to happen, it will be Qing'er's job.

One is that the Li family has a lot of talents now. For Zhou Yi's sake, the emperor paid attention to the son of the Li family and gave him a chance. He is considered a popular candidate;
Another connection of the Li family is very important and cannot be underestimated. This also shows that the son of the Li family is really capable, otherwise it would not be possible for everyone to marry into such a good family as the Zhang family, the Xiao family and the Wang family.

Furthermore, Qing'er herself is very good, and she is also a candidate for the wife of the clan when she steps forward. She is down-to-earth in her ability, deals with people like a spring breeze, has good means, speaks softly but has a bottom line, and after several social interactions, she has left a deep impression on the ladies. impression.

Xiu Niang worked hard to train Qing'er. It can be said that Qing'er's appearance and ability are almost a replica of Xiu Niang.

The principle of marrying a virtuous wife is very important in Beijing circles. When marrying a daughter-in-law, you must marry a good one who can support the family.

This can be seen by looking at Mrs. Zhou and Xiu Niang.

Mrs. Lu attended a banquet at the Xiao family and saw Qing'er. She noticed her and after asking about her, she found out that several banquets were held at the Lu family. Mrs. Zhou and Qing'er were specially invited to come and see her. Only after Shangqing'er is released will there be a follow-up.

The Lu family is indeed good and a good match, but it is not easy for Qing'er.

"What did Qing'er say herself?"

Xiuniang looked at the list and was weighing it in her mind.

"Qing'er prefers the Lu family and is more helpful to the Li family. She is sensible and says she is not afraid of hardship or difficulties. She cannot let the family's training for her go to waste."

Mrs. Zhou sighed, otherwise she would also like Qing'er.

"Let me think about it again. Is there any chance that I can meet Mrs. Lu and Lu Jun?"

"I'll arrange it for you."

"Thank you, sister-in-law, for making you tired."

"Look what you said, I like this kid Qing'er. Qing'er has helped me calculate the accounts for the past two years, and she has done a lot for me. My fan was also knitted by Qing'er for me."

Mrs. Zhou shook her head proudly, the child was caring.

Don't rush when it comes to getting married, you should take your time and use the time to buy some more property for Qing'er to buy a dowry. She brought enough money this time, and she and Brother Chun are the only ones left in the family.

Brother Chun is not in a hurry, there is still time to fill it in later, Qing'er's dowry needs to be purchased first.

Brother Li Ruiqun was asked to take them separately, and Li Yan introduced them to buy some properties. Not only did Xiuniang pay for these, the sister-in-law also bought a three-in house, two houses and a shop for her daughter in the past two years.

Xiuniang bought a farm and a shop, and Li Rui and Li Jing gave the two shops a farm and a shop on the south side of the Yangtze River.

The remaining Xiu Niang bought two more shops, which was almost enough. There was still some money left. Li Rui said he needed money, so he gave it to him.

Li Rui didn't know what he did in cooperation with the Xiao brothers. He made a lot of money and bought several farms and shops near the capital. The three brothers divided the money between them and gave it to Qing'er.

The brothers didn't care how they separated Xiuniang and their eldest sister-in-law. When their children grew up, they stopped talking to their elders about many things.
