Chapter 248 Tang Monk Meat

"Emiang doesn't really want you to nod now." Chen Shi said: "You go back and think about it for two days. This is a major marriage matter, so you should understand it better. If you really don't like it, let's choose again."

"Well, I'll think about it seriously." Mao Mingxuan nodded.

"It's late at night, you should go back and rest. You must be tired after driving all day today. Let's talk tomorrow." Chen said.

"Yes, yes, go back and have a good sleep. I'm afraid you will be busy in the next few days. The masters of your college, the students of Yangzhou City, and the magistrate will all want to see you. You have to Enough energy." Mao Chengyun said.

"Well, Ama, Erniang, the son is going back to the house first." Mao Mingxuan smiled and got up to leave.

After leaving Chen's house and walking on the familiar road, Mao Mingxuan looked up at the sky.

Today is a fine weather with a bright moon and few stars. A big bright moon hangs in the night sky, but the moonlight that used to be cold in the past is somewhat soft today.

After returning to his own room, seeing that there was no change in the furnishings, Mao Mingxuan felt a sense of steadfastness in his heart.Only home is a place of peace of mind.

Lying on the bed, Mao Mingxuan couldn't sleep.

Obviously the body is very tired, and the bed is very comfortable, but the mind can't calm down.

It's not that he never thought about getting married.

When he was studying, seeing those beautiful poems, he also yearned to raise his eyebrows.But as for what kind of woman he wants to live with, he doesn't have a clear idea in his heart.

Hearing Ama and Erniang mention specific people tonight, he also began to have a picture in his mind.If the person who raised the case was Zhao Furong, would he accept it?
That night, Mao Mingxuan fell asleep before he could figure out the result, but the news of his return quickly spread throughout Yangzhou City.

In the yamen of the prefect of Yangzhou, Mr. Fang of the prefect was going to rest at night with the concubine in the sixth house who had recently entered the door, but the wife of the prefect sent someone to call him, saying that he had something important to discuss, so he had no choice but to go to the main courtyard.

"Why is Madam looking for me?" Although Master Fang has many concubines, he still respects his first wife.As long as Madam has something to discuss, he will definitely come.He is very strict about the distinction between wives and concubines.

"Master, does the master know that the son of Mao Shoubei's family is back?" asked the magistrate's wife.

"Oh, I know! I'm preparing for a banquet tomorrow." Fang Zhifu said.This was the only champion in Yangzhou City during his tenure.And he is also the number one pick in three consecutive rounds.As the parent officer, he definitely wants to meet.Not only to see, but also to be rewarded, as a role model for Yangzhou students!
"I heard that our Ruohong has a good relationship with him." Madam Zhifu said again.

"Well, they are studying in the same academy." Fang Zhifu nodded, "If Ruohong hadn't been ill this year, he should have died with him."

"What is the character and appearance of this Mao Mingxuan?" asked the prefect's wife.

"What exactly does Madam want to say?" Fang Zhifu asked.

"Master, I was thinking that the second girl is not engaged yet." Madam Zhifu said.

The second girl she was talking about was Fang Ruoyu, the concubine of Fang Zhifu.In the previous draft, he lost in the first round.After coming back, she has been visiting her husband's family, but Fang Ruoyu's aunt, Yin Shi, has a high vision and always wants to find a good marriage.And Fang Zhifu doted on her, and she also intervened in Fang Ruoyu's marriage.They come and go again and again, and they haven't settled on anyone so far.

The magistrate's wife was not impatient when she arrived.In her opinion, concubine daughters are goods in her hands, as long as they can be exchanged for better benefits for the mansion.Therefore, she also supports Yin's behavior.There is nothing wrong with Fang Ruoyu marrying high.

Now that she heard that Mao Mingxuan was back, she thought that if she could use a concubine to win over the number one scholar, it would be a good deal.

"Ruoyu and Mao Mingxuan?" Fang Zhifu was thoughtful.

"What do you think of this marriage, master?" Madam Zhifu asked expectantly: "I heard that Mrs. Bing has never let go of her mouth. She used the excuse that Mao Mingxuan had won the first prize and had not returned to Yangzhou, so she blocked all the matchmakers from the door. Now Mao Mingxuan I’m back, I’m afraid I won’t be able to stop it anymore. I have to act first.”

"It's really a good marriage." Fang Zhifu nodded, "The champion of the new department, I heard that Long Live Lord likes it very much, and I specially gave it to an outside official to practice, it is a promising one."

"Master also thinks it's feasible? Then tomorrow I will call the matchmaker to come to the door!" Madam Zhifu laughed.

"Yeah, that's fine. It's more than enough for Ruoyu to be paired with a fifth-rank defender." Fang Zhifu said.

"It's just that there is still one thing that needs the master's help." The magistrate's wife said with a smile all over her face.

"Say."

"Yin's, I have to tell the master, lest she think that I let Ruoyu marry lowly. After all, the champion was only a seventh-rank county magistrate at the beginning."

"If she dislikes this marriage any more, you will take care of Ruoyu's affairs!" Fang Zhifu said with a serious face.

"This is what the master said." Madam Zhifu said.

"Well, I'll go and talk to her now!" Fang Zhifu said: "I agreed to this marriage, she dares to have an opinion!"

"The concubine sent the master off respectfully!" The magistrate's wife smiled happily, with a little smugness in her eyes.

Yin's short-sightedness would probably object to this marriage.Maybe she would think that she deliberately chose this marriage as revenge for her constant criticism of Fang Ruoyu's marriage.

On the second day, when the magistrate's wife saw Yin's red and swollen eyes and haggard look, she knew she had guessed right.Seeing Yin's forced smile and saying thank you, she was even happier!

Mrs. Chen didn't expect that the person who proposed marriage would come to her door so soon!
Mao Mingxuan only got home yesterday afternoon, and the matchmaker came in early this morning.

What she didn't even expect was that the person who came to propose marriage today would be the magistrate's family!You must know that among the people who have come to propose marriage before, there has never been a magistrate!

Mao Mingxuan was doing morning exercises in his small courtyard, and he didn't even know that he had become a Tang monk and was being missed by others.

"Second girl?" Chen was taken aback for a moment.

"Yes, Fang Ruoyu, the second girl of Fang Zhifu." The matchmaker laughed, and then praised Fang Ruoyu fiercely.She boasted that she was a good girl that was rare in the sky but not on the earth.

"You also know that my family, Mingxuan, just came back yesterday, so there's no rush for this marriage." Chen shirked.

She didn't have a good impression of the prefect's family.The magistrate's wife is a snobbish woman, and this Fang Ruoyu's mother is an aunt, who also likes to pinch vinegar on weekdays.Although she had never seen Fang Ruoyu before, she was not happy when she thought that she belonged to both his aunt and aunt.

Of course, she also knew that the magistrate's wife would definitely not be willing to marry her own daughter to Mao Mingxuan.Isn't it because the master is only a fifth-rank defense, so he thought about marrying a concubine.
