Chapter 425 Do your best
Nowadays, no matter whether one is a wealthy family, an ordinary person, or a servant, they all like to have many sons. The reason they believe that having many sons will ensure a prosperous family and a continuation of the family line.
Look, there are more boys than girls. We haven't figured out the problem for this batch yet, and the next batch of grown-up ones are coming up one after another. They all want to start a family. Where can we find so many girls of the right age?
Shi Liu thought about what she had learned before. There were not many girls in the manors in Xiangning County, and they might not even be able to find enough girls for marriage among themselves. As for the manors in the capital, there were many people, but there were also many male servants.
Solving the marriage problem is a big deal and a headache.
She didn't care about the other servants in the farm, but she still had to take care of the people in front of her.
So Shi Liu looked at Jiang Bing and the others patiently, waiting for them to speak.
Jiang Bing, Jiang Tong, Lu Dong, and Ma Xiwen, who was specially called back from the city to attend the blind date party, looked at each other and no one spoke for a while.
In the end, Lu Dong gritted his teeth, knelt down, and kowtowed three times to Shi Liu without saying a word.
Then he stood up straight and spoke very quickly, fearing that he would not be able to speak if he spoke slowly. It was obvious that he had mustered up a lot of courage.
"Miss, I want to marry Xichun! Please give me some grace and make my wish come true!"
Xichun was serving Shiliu at that moment. Her face immediately turned red. Her eyes wandered around, not knowing where to look. She lowered her head and said quickly, "I'll go cut a pear for you, young lady!"
After saying that, he quickly hid away.
Pomegranate: ...No wonder we didn’t make eye contact today, it turns out you already have someone in your heart!
Looking at Lu Dong's blushing face, Shi Liu also found it funny. If he had taken a fancy to Xichun, he should have told her earlier. She was not the unreasonable girl.
"You get up first. I need to ask Xichun about this matter first."
Lu Dong stood up immediately.
Shi Liu looked at Jiang Bing and the others again, "What about you? Are you also interested in someone around me?"
Jiang Bing and Jiang Tong kept shaking their heads. They were not familiar with Sui Lu and Shi Hong yet. Nian Xia was just like Xi Chun, they were both cousins.
As for Ma Xiwen, Fu Dong was his cousin, much younger than him, so he had never thought about her at all.
Jiang Tong and Jiang Bing had no relationship, but he did not dare to ask for Fu Dong's hand in marriage. She was the girl's personal maid, and her age was obvious. The girl would not let her go so early.
Shi Liu saw the three of them shaking their heads, and couldn't say what kind of person they liked. After thinking for a while, she said, "Then I'll think about the marriages for the three of you and tell you when the time comes."
The three of them nodded quickly.
At this moment, Xichun, who was cutting pears, had not returned yet, but Nianxia came in with the cut pears.
Shi Liu asked Lu Dong and Jiang Bing to go back first and tell him after she had said hello.
A few people took their leave, and after a while, Xichun came in with a red face.
Shi Liu smiled and asked her, "You heard it just now, what do you think? If you are willing, then I will make the decision for you. If you are not willing, it's okay, I will reply to him."
Lu Dong was also a manager. He was young, very capable, and not bad looking. Xichun and he were both from Erli Village, so they had known each other since childhood and she was also familiar with his family.
I think her father would be happy with this marriage.
As for Xichun herself, she also thinks it’s good.
Her face turned red immediately, "I will follow the young lady's decision."
When Shi Liu saw her like this, she knew what she meant. She said it was up to her, which clearly meant that she was willing!
He smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll ask Lu Dong to go home and ask his parents to get ready so that he can propose marriage to Jiang Zhuangtou!"
"But you are still young, so settle down first and don't rush into marriage. Since Lu Dong wants to marry you, you have to wait!"
Xichun: "I will obey you, young lady."
One of the maids around her was promised to leave, and Shi Liu was reluctant to give up the rest. She had been thinking about the marriages of Jiang Bing and the other two for two days, and finally she had thought of a suitable one.
There is a family of four living in the house in Lihua Hutong in the city. It seems that Huang Zhong’s daughter Bai Cui is old enough to get married, right?
In addition, the head of Da Nan Zhuang in the prefectural capital seemed to have a daughter. I don’t know if the age is suitable. I’ll ask first. The head of the village’s daughter is not bad for the steward beside her. There is also the head of the village, Chaihu, in the village she named Li Zhuang in Xiangning County. She bought his family of four and moved them in. She remembered that his daughter was of the right age for marriage.
If you count it this way, there are exactly three.
Shi Liu immediately clapped her hands and asked someone to pass a message to these three places to ask, and if they were willing, she would send her daughter to stay with her for a few days.
When the time comes, she will give them a chance to get along with each other. Whoever is attracted to whom will be destined to be together.
If it doesn't work, we'll talk about it later.
While Shi Liu was busy with her subordinates' lifelong arrangements, the Fan family had also chosen a date and invited a matchmaker named Jin to come and inquire about the name of the bride.
Asking for the name means matching the horoscopes.
Song gave Shi Liu's birth date to the matchmaker Jin to take back to the Fan family.
After receiving the pomegranate's birth date and horoscope, Mrs. Lu placed it on the incense table of her ancestors. Three days later, the family was safe and sound.
Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked the matchmaker Jin to send Fan Jin's birth date and horoscope to the Li family.
Song took Fan Jin's birth date and placed it in front of the Buddha statue in her room. Three days later, everything was fine as usual.
These eight characters are compatible.
Soon, the Fan family sent gold and silver jewelry, this was Najib.
From then on, one book and three rituals were in place, and two books and three rituals were still missing. However, the latter ones could not be completed quickly.
Not to mention that the pomegranates are not even fifteen yet, even if they are, they will have to be kept for another one or two years.
Song had mentioned this matter as early as when the matchmaker Jin came to propose marriage.
The Fan family naturally had no objection. After all, it was understandable that a family that loved their daughter wanted to keep her for two more years. Besides, Shi Liu was not very old.
The Fan family is not in a hurry, as long as it is settled.
After Najib's death, Mrs. Lu was busy packing her son's luggage.
Fan Jin is going to the provincial capital to prepare for the college entrance examination.
This is quite important.
Although the college entrance examination is still half a month away, it is good to go and propose marriage so as to familiarize himself with the local environment to avoid any mistakes. Besides, the head of the Fan family also wants to let Fan Jin go to the provincial capital early and ask his eldest grandson Fan Xuan to give him some guidance.
Fan Xun is already a scholar and is now studying in the provincial school. Not only is he familiar with the city, he also has many classmates there. He takes Fan Jinduo to interact with them and gain some knowledge.
Those who are preparing for the imperial examinations should avoid studying alone. How can they write good essays if they don't know current affairs?
Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Fan Jin had to go to the provincial capital in advance.
Last time I went to Fuchengfu, I tried staying in an inn with my classmates. This time, we have to stay for such a long time, so it is obviously inconvenient to stay in an inn.
Mrs. Lu was thinking of asking Bafang to go to the provincial capital to travel more and rent a quiet house.
Fan Jin smiled and said, "Mother, don't bother. Miss Shi Liu has an empty house in the city, not far from the Imperial Examination Hall. She asked Zhang Ge'er to tell me yesterday that I can live there. After all, it is quieter than renting a house, and there is no need to worry about any trouble."
Lu listened and couldn't help but ask, "How can this be good?"
"Why is it not good? Don't mention that I'm engaged to Miss Pomegranate. Even if we're not, I can stay here with you based on my relationship with Zhang Ge'er and Brother Rong Zong."
Fan Jin said this, but in his heart he was thinking that he and Miss Li had a special relationship. This house was borrowed and he was unfamiliar with the city. Everything depended on the exam. This time, he was determined to pass it with all his strength.
After hearing what he said, Mrs. Lu didn't say anything else. She just said, "Then you should take care of your health. Don't stay up too late. Just do your best. Your health is the most important thing."
If it doesn’t work this time, there’s always next time.
