Chapter 162 The two governments compete for marriage (4)
"Okay, Peng'er, it's getting dark now, and the curfew is about to come. Grandma will send someone to Prince Wei's Mansion tomorrow morning to promise marriage." Mrs. He coaxed her grandson with her arms around her.

"No, no, let's talk now, let's talk now!" Seeing that his grandmother promised to answer immediately, Du Peng threw himself on the ground and rolled around.

"Okay, let's talk about it now, really, you are a little magic star!" Mrs. He smiled and poked her grandson's bald forehead lightly in response.

Du Peng stopped rolling all over the floor, got up and ran outside, Mrs. He was still muttering loudly behind: "Peng'er slow down, knock carefully..."

"Old Madam, the servant's father is asking to see you." Just as Du Peng ran out, Pearl came in to report, Madam He nodded and said, "Well, tell him to come in quickly."

Gao Laoshi walked into the upper room, knelt down and kowtowed straightly, the old lady yelled, he stood up still with his head down and hands down, he couldn't be more polite.

"Father Pearl, have you found out everything I asked you to inquire about?" Mrs. He asked in a deep voice.

Gao Laoshi knelt down again with a plop, and kowtowed again and again: "Old Madam, the marriage in Prince Wei's Mansion cannot be agreed!"

"What are you doing, stand up and answer carefully, whether or not the marriage should be in your hands is beyond your control." Mrs. He reprimanded very rudely.

Gao Laoshi didn't get up, just straightened his upper body and said: "Go back to the old lady, the servant went out to inquire casually, and heard that the Weiwang Mansion is really a wolf's den. How many, Prince Wei and his son love to play with the little girl's family, and they are still together. The prince of Wei wants to choose the concubine, and it has been more than two years since no one is willing to marry the girl, not even the current emperor. Marriage is just to give Gong'e to fill in the number in the Prince Wei's mansion. The slave begs the old lady to think twice, and must not delay the eldest girl's life!"

"Ah, there is such a thing, can you find out clearly?" This is the first time Mrs. He heard about the dirty things in Prince Wei's mansion, her eyes widened in shock, there are such shameless people in the world, it is true Challenged Mrs. He's psychological limit.

"Going back to the old lady, I asked several people, and found someone from Xiguo Gong's mansion who was familiar with me. As soon as I asked, he told me that the shit in King Wei's mansion had long been ruined, and there were not many people in the capital. I personally don’t know. If the old lady doesn’t believe it, I will invite the purchase of the Duke of Xi’s mansion to the mansion tomorrow to explain to the old lady in detail.” Gao Laoshi was afraid that the old lady would not believe it, so he also talked about the purchase of the Duke of Xi’s mansion. up.

Mrs. He is skeptical, but she can't really call the procurement from Duke Xi's mansion to General Jianwei's mansion for questioning.Just now she promised her grandson to return to Prince Wei's mansion tomorrow to agree to the marriage, Mrs. He is really in a dilemma at this time.

Seeing the old lady's expression of hesitancy, Pearl didn't dare to help her father up, she only nervously looked at the old lady and then at her own father, and couldn't even speak for her father.

Mrs. He thought for a while but couldn't come up with a clue, but when she lowered her head, she found that Gao Laoshi was still kneeling, so she waved her hand and said, "Get up, Pearl, and send your father out."

If Zhuzhu was amnesty, she hurriedly helped her father up and sent her to the door. Gao honestly patted his daughter on the back of his hand and said in a low voice, "Wuya, if you can persuade the old lady, Wei Wang's mansion is a pit of fire. If the eldest girl Entering Prince Wei's Mansion, our mansion will lose all reputation, even if Master can return to Beijing safely, he will spit on his stars and drown!"

Pearl nodded and said: "Father, I know, you should go home quickly. After running away all night, you didn't even have a warm meal. The old lady was so angry that she forgot to reward you. Don't be angry."

Gao honestly said: "Look at what you girl said, is your father that kind of person? Speaking of which, it's really not easy for a big girl. If you can help, just help out a few words. Don't think that the big girl is Miss General, she is really not as good as you Had a good time."

Pearl nodded again. In fact, these big maids of the Yishou Hall were only brought up this year. In the past, those who were either married to boys or ran away from the house to marry.In the past year or so, Du Heng has visited the Summer Palace more than before. He has never been harsh to them, and the rewards from time to time are not generous. The grip is also tight, and there is no reward, so the maids and mothers of the Yishou Garden now like the eldest girl Du Heng, the second girl, the third girl, and the uncle.

As soon as Gao Laoshi returned to the outer courtyard, he met Du Zhong, the housekeeper. Du Zhong lowered his voice and asked, "Did the old lady answer?"

Gao honestly said: "I've said it, I'm telling the truth, I just don't know if the old lady can listen to it."

Du Zhong nodded and said: "It's good to be honest, it's good to be honest, honestly, go, come to my place and have a few glasses of wine to warm up your body, we two have a good chat."

Gao Laoshi hurriedly supported Du Zhong and said with a smile, "Uncle Xie Zhong appreciates the wine." The two walked while talking, and they reached Du Zhong's room after a while.

Du Zhong ordered Gouzi to scald two jugs of old wine and prepared four side dishes. Both the jug and the dishes were made of pure silver. Du Zhong laughed shyly: "This is also forced There is no way, otherwise who would dare to use this."

Gao honestly said hastily: "You should, you should, Uncle Zhong, you have high morals and prestige, and when you encounter such a thing, you should have used such a device."

"Oh, let's not talk about this, honestly, pour the wine, and Uncle Zhong will talk to you today." Du Zhong pointed to the jug and said to Gao Honest.

Gao Laoshi let out an "eh", rolled up his sleeves and picked up the flagon and poured two glasses of wine. Du Zhong clinked glasses with him.

"Honestly, the eldest girl's marriage is definitely not going to work this time. Even if I risk my life, I can't let this marriage happen. But the eldest girl always wants to get married, and there must be several family members as dowry. I was thinking about this matter, I am old, and I am the housekeeper of the mansion, so I can't help the eldest girl for a few years, besides, I am a lonely old man, even if I am a housekeeper for the eldest girl, I can't help much, I thought about it for a long time, I think your family is quite suitable, but I don't know if you are willing or not?" Du Zhong only drank a glass of wine, and then said everything in his heart.

Gao Laoshi felt a little troubled, and he said with a bitter face: "Uncle Zhong, it's not that my nephew doesn't want to be the housekeeper of the eldest girl, it's because there are too many people in my nephew family. Uncle Zhong, you know it, nephew There are six girls and four boys, and the two boys are already married. The three girls are also married, if they become the escort of the older girl, this..."
