Chapter 434 Respective Attitudes (1)
Hearing this, Lin Xiaoqiao remembered the bleakness in Miss Wen San's eyes, and couldn't help saying, "Oh——I feel that Miss San is a little pitiful. She's obviously an official daughter, but just because of her status as a concubine , but live so carefully. Come to think of it, the two young ladies should know what's going on when we go to Wenfu this time as guests. However, that Miss Wensan didn't do anything special. I didn't seem very enthusiastic when I looked at it. I looked at my duty, and when Miss Wen Wu was very enthusiastic about me, I also saw Miss San's disappointment, but she didn't say anything Although this has the care and duty of being a concubine, it also shows that Miss Wen San is not a character who can pick things up, toss about things, and be tough."

"Oh—it seems that we, Xiaoqiao, observed carefully today. Although we say yes, we like Miss Wen Wu the most, but we agree with Miss Wen Jia San even more in our hearts." Widow Zheng smiled lightly.

"I'm just seeking truth from facts, and it's about the lifelong affairs of my two brothers, how can I not pay attention to it!" Lin Xiaoqiao replied, "Aunt Zheng, is Mrs. Wen here today? Is it intentional to reveal it?" Miss, are you marrying my elder brother or second elder brother?"

"That's not true. She just made it clear to me today that she wanted to marry the Lin family. However, Mrs. Wen didn't say clearly what kind of marriage method it is. I guess she will give us the bottom line today. , maybe there is no conclusion yet for the Bachelor of Arts!" Widow Zheng said, stroking Lin Xiaoqiao's hair.

After Lin Xiaoqiao heard this, he didn't say anything else, he just wanted to tell his two elder brothers the truth about the looks and temperament of the two Miss Wen family after he went back, and let them think about it by themselves.

In the final analysis, this marriage is also a matter between two families, and it can't just be chosen by others, they always have some right to speak!
It was night, when the Bachelor of Arts returned home, he went straight to the main room in the backyard. Mrs. Wen saw her husband entering the house, and hurriedly greeted her. They retreated very consciously, leaving the old couple to talk.

The Bachelor of Arts did not beat around the bush, and asked about his wife, Mrs. Chen and Miss Lin's visit to the mansion today.

Although Mrs. Wen had been confessed by her husband before, she still didn't expect her husband to attach so much importance to this marriage, so she first briefly talked about the situation during the day today, and finally sighed a few words from the bottom of her heart, "I I really didn't expect that Miss Lin's etiquette and rules are so comprehensive, and she doesn't seem to have learned it recently. The whole demeanor is no worse than the so-called daughter of everyone. It's really not like what you said, coming from the countryside A girl from a peasant family."

The Bachelor of Arts held the cup, wiped off the foam on the water surface with the lid of the cup, took a shallow sip, and then said unhurriedly, "Oh——from Madam's words, the upbringing of the girl from the Lin family must be , should be pretty good."

Mrs. Wen smiled, "It's really good to see, what is the plan in the master's mind, no matter what, you should let me know. Today I see Mrs. Chen's expression, it seems that I knew it in advance Yes, when I deliberately showed that meaning, I didn't see her showing the slightest surprise."

After hearing this, the Bachelor of Arts didn't see much surprise. If he hadn't found out all the details there, he wouldn't have the idea of ​​getting married rashly. "Madam thinks that Madam Chen and Lin Miss, do you prefer our Xin'er, or Fei'er?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Wen was very surprised, and blurted out what was in her heart, "What does the master mean by this question? Don't talk about the pride of the daughter's family, just talk about the family background of the Lin family, which is just a small family. Maybe They are quite wealthy in that small place, but compared with the dignitaries that can be seen everywhere in the capital, what are they? Even if they are friendly with the Chen family? I heard that the son of Mrs. Chen is just a member of the Imperial Academy It's just a minor official of the fifth grade. Even if there is the saying that "non-Hanlin will not join the cabinet", but when he survives, it will be more than ten or twenty years later. With the family background of the Lin family, our daughter, said Everything is low marriage, how can you be so self-deprecating?"

Mrs. Wen only recently found out about her husband's plan. She didn't see much surprise about such a marriage. She just thought it was her master's plan for the concubine's future. Therefore, she didn't go to inquire about the Lin family. family background.

What's more, the Bachelor of Arts never told her in detail, and originally thought it was just a concubine's marriage, so he didn't ask too much, so he knew very little about it.

At this time, Mrs. Wen listened to what her husband said, that she wanted to choose one of the two daughters to marry. If you want to marry low, you won't be able to match someone with such a low family background.

After more than [-] years of husband and wife, how can a scholar of the University of Arts not know what his old wife is thinking, "Don't worry, if I didn't check it out, how could I tell you these words? What about the family background of the Lin family? Menting is not as simple as you think."

Mrs. Wen became interested after hearing this, "Could it be that the Lin family is some kind of hidden dignitary?"

The Bachelor of Arts smiled profoundly, "It's not that they are dignitaries, but the background behind them should not be underestimated."

After finishing speaking, looking at his old wife's half-knowledgeable appearance, he continued, "I guess you don't know the background of Mrs. Chen. Back then, when she was in the capital, we didn't show up at the gate of our house. Between you I have never dealt with them before. Even I, if I hadn't thought of getting married this time, I wouldn't have investigated carefully, and of course I wouldn't have known some of the secrets. Then Mrs. Chen is the eldest daughter of Zheng Shangshu's mansion. In the early years, he married Chen Qingyun, who is currently the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

Hearing this, Mrs. Wen couldn't help covering her mouth in surprise, "Oh my god—I really didn't expect that Mrs. Chen would have such a prominent background. The Zheng family is one of the most famous families in the capital! And that Chen Shilang , isn't it from the Chen family in Shandong, that centuries-old family with a scholarly reputation?"

Speaking of this, I suddenly thought of something, and couldn't help asking, "Then why did Mrs. Chen's mother and son not live in Chen Shilang's mansion, but went out of the mansion to find another residence? Moreover, I also heard that Mrs. Chen, who is a few Did you only enter the capital a month ago?"

Seeing that the old wife was transparent, the Bachelor of Arts couldn't help smiling, and replied, "This matter is also a private matter. Mrs. Chen's mother and son disappeared quietly in the capital more than ten years ago. According to the Zheng and Chen families, their mother and son They went back to their hometown, but according to my investigation, the mother and son were forced to leave the capital by Chen Shilang's concubine, and that concubine is now Mrs. Chen Shilang."
