Chapter 2122 Asking to marry the daughter of the Pei family

In order not to freeze to death, Zhou Yingjie ordered his aunts to go back to the British Marquis's mansion to get quilts.In the end, three people were sent, and only two came back. The remaining one took the opportunity to run away!
The second is that Zhuangzi is big and there are many places that need to be cleaned.The Zhou family used to have pampered masters, and everyone was raised to be lazy. They neither knew how to clean nor were too lazy to clean.

In short, the Zhou family had a very difficult life in this small village. They fought for food, clothes and bedding, and they got into countless fights.

In just one month, only three of Zhou Yingjie's eighth aunts were gone, and they all ran away just to care for themselves, leaving behind some who were in need of food, could not help with any work, and only cried and tortured others. child.

Zhou Sheng only endured such days for a month before he left with regrets.

The Zhou family didn't even have enough food to eat, let alone buying a coffin for Zhou Sheng and taking care of the chores. They almost threw him into a mass grave without even wrapping him in a straw mat.

It was Zhou Sheng's former subordinates who couldn't bear it and pooled their money to buy a coffin, and then Zhou Sheng Ansheng was buried in the ground.

But that's all. There is no idle matter, no paper money everywhere, and not many people know and care about Zhou Sheng's death.

The British Marquis Mansion is no longer enough for people to chat after dinner, and no one cares about the life and death of the Zhou family anymore.

What people are now concerned about and discussing is which young lady is engaged to which young master today.

Ever since the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet at the Marquis of Cheng'an Mansion ended, there seemed to be a trend of getting married in the capital.

All the unmarried men and women of the right age have made up their minds.

Several of the Pei family girls with distant bloodlines have also been selected.

On the fifteenth day of the day, Mrs. Cheng'an Hou invited Yuanbao Pei's mother to go to Xiangguo Temple to worship Buddha.

By coincidence, Yuanbao heard from Pei Yu the night before that there were new findings at Four Seasons Villa, so he wanted to wait in the mansion for the details of the people who came back to hear the news, so he told Pei's mother that he didn't want to go.

Seeing that Yuan Bao was not going, Pei's mother lost interest and sent someone to reject Mrs. Cheng'anhou.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Cheng'an Hou came directly to the door again!
Pei's mother probably guessed the purpose of the other party's visit, so she specially sent someone to call Yuan Bao to entertain him.

As expected, after a cup of tea, Mrs. Cheng'an Hou expressed her intention to come with a smile: "Actually, I came today because I have something to ask for. You have all seen that my son Zhenyuan has reached the age of marrying a wife and having children. , can be regarded as a talented person.”

"But he is only obsessed with learning and has never paid attention to this matter. So I have no choice. As a mother, I can only make more plans for him. There are so many noble girls in the capital, but to be honest, the one I am most optimistic about is She is a girl from your Pei family! So Mrs. Pei, Princess Qingcheng, can I be bold and ask you to help me find a girl from the Pei family to be my daughter-in-law?"

Because they had expected it, neither Pei's mother nor Yuan Bao showed any surprise, but just looked at each other in tacit understanding.

Mother Pei responded with a smile: "Of course, it is our Pei family's honor to marry the Marquis of Cheng'an. But I only have a son like Yu'er. As for the nieces, I can only help them look after them." Judging from the situation, I still can’t bypass other people’s parents and make the decision directly.”

"That's nature, that's nature."

Yuan Bao's memory flashed back to Xiao Zhenyuan's yearning for spring and a smile on his face at the chrysanthemum appreciation banquet that day.

After hesitating for a moment, she reminded Mrs. Chengan Hou: "We can understand that Madam misses you so much. But Madam, are you sure that your young master really doesn't have a girl that he likes? What if we choose a girl from the Pei family? If you are willing to accept it, or even refuse to consider it, I am afraid it will break the heart of my girl from the Pei family."
