suspected wife

Lan's naturally knew what her daughter-in-law meant.

So the first one to visit was the neighbor of my aunt Yun's family in the next village.

This time, Lan's family attached great importance to Ming Yu's marriage. Lan's didn't like to go out for many years, but this time, she dressed up carefully and took Qiao's mother to visit the family.

Qiao's mother's sister, Yunni, saw her sister quite often, but she didn't meet Lan's many times after she got married.

Seeing that Mrs. Lan came to the door in person this time, it was natural that he entertained him a lot.

He also asked the youngest daughter in the family to invite Wei Xiucai's mother to talk, only saying that it was a family chat between relatives.

Unexpectedly, when Wei's mother came, there was also a woman and a girl of fifteen or sixteen years old.Said to be mother Wei's natal sister-in-law and niece.

Lan's heart is full of Gordon at the moment.

Sure enough, Wei's mother's natal sister-in-law talked about how she helped the Wei family these years, how the whole family tightened their belts for Wei Xiucai to study, and how the two families looked forward to Wei's love. A scholar can change the door.

The little girl who came next to her was twisting her handkerchief to show sweet shyness while listening to her mother talking about her cousin Xiucai.

Is there anything else Lan can't understand?

He didn't even eat any food, and he dragged Mother Qiao back, regardless of Aunt Yun's persuasion.

When he got home, he was still upset, and gave Qiao's mother several hard glances.

Two days later, when I learned about the situation of the Xie family whom I asked Yun's family to visit in a neighboring village, I was even more upset.

The Xie family's parents had heard about the third daughter of Qiao's family long ago, not to mention that both father and brother in the family are scholars.The girl is still good-looking, and she is good at needlework and housekeeping. She has long wanted to send someone to the door to talk about marriage.

Therefore, when the eldest aunt and the younger aunt of the Yun family went to visit, they just wished they could hold the hands of the two of them and immediately settle the marriage.

The two were very happy at first, thinking that it would be a success, but when they got home, they were poured cold water on them.

In addition to the two aunts of the Yun family visiting the Xie family, the Lan family also entrusted the two uncles of the Yun family to go to the Songshan Fair to inquire about the behavior of the Xie family boy.

When the two arrived at the market, they found out that the boy surnamed Xie was capable, and he not only managed the small shop in a prosperous manner.They are also generous, fair in business prices, and innocent, and the two are very happy.

Unexpectedly, he saw with his own eyes that the boy from the Xie family entered and exited the shop with a beautiful woman.After inquiring, it was said that it was a personal maid bought by the Xie family brother, and the Xie family brother often brought it in and out.Be intimate.

Some people who visited his shop always mistook them for the couple.

When Uncle Yun came back, he only said this to Lan Shi, and Lan Shi was out of breath.

With dozens of acres of land and a small facade, do you want to imitate rich people's servants and maidservants?She also knows how to make a personal girl!I really don't know what to say.

Not to mention the Lan family, even Qiao's father and Qiao's mother looked down on such a family.

The family surnamed Xie is naturally yellow.

The last family candidate was the youngest son of Mr. Zhang from Yunmu Private School.

It turned out that Mr. Zhang was very interested in asking for marriage, so he invited the Qiao family to a tea shop in Jishang to talk.

Mr. Zhang arrived early that day and waited at the door of the tea shop early in the morning.

Father Qiao and Mr. Zhang are both scholars, so they naturally have a lot to say when they meet.After a while, brother Qiao and brother Zhang Xian fell in love with each other.

Lan's Chu Chu saw only Mr. Zhang coming.However, several people came from my own side, even the granddaughter. This kind of sincerity made a difference, and I felt a little displeased.

But seeing that Mr. Zhang had a happy conversation with his son, he felt that Mingyu might be taken in by that family, and thought that this marriage could be done, so he brought Mingyu, who was so ashamed that he couldn't lift his head, in Sitting aside drinking tea.

Then I drank two cups of tea.The wife of the Zhang family came late.

She was dressed in clothes made of Hangzhou silk, with several gold hairpins on her head.There are also two pairs of heavy gold bracelets in her hands. The lady surnamed Zhang is dressed like a rich lady, and the plain-faced Qiao's mother looks like her family's rough envoy in front of her.

As soon as Mrs. Zhang entered the door, she looked Ming Yu up and down, inspected it, and glanced wantonly at Mrs. Lan and Mrs. Qiao.

Lan felt displeased, but just sat still with a restrained expression.

That Mrs. Zhang was upset when she saw Mother Qiao and Ming Yu stand up to greet her, and Mrs. Lan only raised half of her body.

He asked: "Which wife is this?" Seeing that Mrs. Lan didn't stand up and salute to greet her, she secretly thought that she was a country family who didn't know any rules.

Mr. Zhang looked embarrassed, he is an elder, it's fine if his wife doesn't salute to him, but waiting for the elder to salute to her?

She gave Zhang a hand, and said to Lan: "Old lady, this is Zhuojing. I have something at home today, so I came late."

He winked at his wife again: "This is Miss Qiao's grandmother, the old man has arrived at the market early in the morning."

After hearing this, Mrs. Lan just glanced at Mrs. Zhang indifferently, seeing that she was still not moving, she smiled secretly, is she waiting for me to get up to greet you?

When Mrs. Zhang saw Lan's old woman from the country, and after hearing her husband's introduction, she still tasted tea there, she felt even more contemptuous.

Two people who are unhappy in their hearts naturally cannot talk together.

But Qiao's mother managed to pick three families from the matchmaker, and now she went to two more, leaving only the last one. She was anxious, fearing that her daughter's marriage would be difficult, so she racked her brains and tried every means to persuade Mrs. Zhang to talk.

It's just that Mrs. Zhang didn't like the marriage chosen by her man in the first place, so it would be good if two or three of the ten sentences agreed.

Her Zhang family had such a son, and he was promising since he was a child. He was selected as a scholar at a young age, and now he is studying in an academy in Qingchuan City. Even the husband praised him, saying that he is a middle school student. No problem.

My son has a bright future in the future, aren't those ladies from high families waiting in line for her to pick him up?

Why bother to choose such a poor family in such a hurry, what benefit will it do to my son?

Originally, she didn't want to come today, but after her husband left, after thinking about it, she dressed up and put on all the jewelry in the dressing box, so that they could see the difference between clouds and mud, and her own heart was born. Retreat, and save those muddy legs that don't know the heights of the sky and the earth are always sticky.

Mrs. Zhang's words were arrogant, and in the end, even Qiao's mother, who was belatedly aware of it, could hear it.

What's more, Lan's?

When Zhang just opened the door and came in, she saw that Zhang's eyes grew on the top of his head.

That Mrs. Zhang asked Qiao's mother: "How many acres of poor land does your Qiao family have? How much can you harvest for chewing in a year?"

Mother Qiao explained her own situation.

Mrs. Zhang said again: "Except for the taxes paid, these few acres of land are probably enough for your family to eat, right? Even if your eldest son becomes a teacher for someone else, don't you need to save some money for him to prepare for the exam? Are you I don't know how much money it will cost to prepare for an exam. Even if you pass the exam, you have to manage it up and down. Our family is just like this, and he is doing his best. Naturally, his father and I have to trust him to help. Fortunately, my natal family is doing well, and I often help out. Otherwise, life would be really sad. By the way, can Miss Qiao's grandparents live well?"

Ming Yu lowered her head, and only heard her mother tell Zhang about the situation of her grandfather's house again.

After hearing that, Mrs. Zhang said again: "Hey, I'm the only one. The days are tighter, so I'll come here. There are several in your family. How can this wedding cost nothing? Yes At that time, the bride price and dowry of my children are also my face."

Mrs. Lan glanced at her, saw that she was touching the gold hairpin on her head and the gold bracelet on her hand, and smiled secretly, does this imply that our family can't afford the dowry?

Qiao's mother secretly glanced at her mother-in-law, and was considering how to reply, and heard the Zhang said: "I heard that your eldest daughter has moved out of her husband's house with her child now? Hey, this woman, married There is no one in the husband’s family who is not angry. I can’t bear some stinginess and lose my temper and die, right? Fortunately, I don’t have a daughter, otherwise I would have to let her watch "Ladies Ring" and "Women's Rules" when she was young. Where is the daughter's family? May not know some rules."

After speaking, he looked Ming Yu up and down again.

He was even more displeased with her sitting there with her head bowed all the time, as expected, the farmer's family could not stand on the stage.

After hearing what Zhang said, Mrs. Lan smiled.

This remark directly rises to the issue of the Qiao family's upbringing of their daughter.

Qiao's mother was a little nervous, and when she didn't know how to reply, she heard Lan's saying: "Fortunately, Madam doesn't have a daughter, otherwise this daughter's eyes are on the top of her head, and it will be extremely difficult to be close in the future. Although my family is poor, But I really don't want to curry favor with anyone. Mrs. Zhang will wait for her son to earn his fortune in the future. My family only farms in the countryside, so I don't want to slow down Brother Zhang. This marriage is all about getting married. It seems that We can't see clearly."

Mr. Zhang glared at his wife after hearing Lan's words, and was about to say something soft for his wife as an apology, when he saw the grandmother of Qiao's family pulled her granddaughter to get up and leave.

He hurriedly got up to stop him, but Qiao's father was already unhappy after hearing Zhang's words, so he got up and said goodbye...

In this way, the last candidate is also yellow.

When Qiao Mingjin heard the news Yun Jin brought back, she was also angry and funny.

Those who are rich do not learn well, and those who are talented are pretentious.

Presumably my grandmother and parents would be even more worried about Ming Yu's marriage?

Qiao Mingjin was also very concerned about Mingyu's marriage. She didn't go out and didn't know anyone, so she dragged sister Xiu, Mrs. Su and Mrs. Lu's mother-in-law and told her about her sister, and asked them to help pay attention to her. There are suitable candidates.

Sister Xiu, Mrs. Lu and the others were naturally happy and caring.It's okay to be free in winter. What's wrong with pulling the strings and making a good story?

He searched carefully for the people around him and reported them to Qiao Mingjin one by one.Qiao Mingjin reported to Lan's family and Qiao's father and mother one by one.

As for Qiao's father and mother, after two days of rest, they also started looking for another matchmaker.

After choosing for another half a month, there was always no satisfactory candidate. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
