Returning to the Pastoral: Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 244 Ask
"This family has always proposed marriage for the eldest girl..."

Su Yun sat at the head, scanning everyone's eyes, trying to see something unusual, especially Chang Da Mao.

Seeing that Chang Da Mao didn't react much, he secretly wondered, is this guy too deep in the city?Or did I misunderstand myself?Or is he playing with the eldest sister?

Thinking of the last possibility, Su Yun was so angry that he wanted to go up and beat him to death.

"It's the nephew of the Cao family next door. I see that the little official is honest, and the eldest girl of your family has also reached the age of leaving the court. I think this marriage is not bad..."

Su Yun drank tea and said casually, but his eyes kept shooting back and forth on everyone, and the glances always stayed on Chang Da Mao for a while.

Chang Damao was taken aback by his wife, and he couldn't help wondering, why did he think his wife's speech was a bit weird?Why do you say this as if you are talking about yourself?
But what does this big girl's marriage have to do with me?Why do you always look at yourself?

Chang Da Mao was uneasy, Su Yun saw it, and his heart sank more and more.

Is it really Chang Da Mao?
His eyes narrowed slightly, and he flicked his fingers unconsciously on the table. After a long time, he slowly said, "Thank you, Auntie..."

"The old slave is..."

"You know what the girl who came out of the cabinet wants to buy, right? Or I'll leave it up to you. Even if the Cao family fails, we should get ready. The dowry has to be arranged. Just Let Chang Da Mao accompany you to set up..."

"Yes, ma'am..."

Mrs. Xie glanced at Su Yun thoughtfully, always feeling that the master's words were insincere.Just now the eldest girl ran back crying, and she didn't know what happened at the banquet.

Su Yun looked at Chang Damao again, and said, "Da Mao, you have to obey Aunt Xie's arrangement in everything, do you understand?"

"Yes, the small ones are worth it."

The answer was crisp and clear, without muddling at all.

Su Yun was a little confused again, did he really guess wrong?Chang Damao's uneasy look just now was because he had been staring at him?

But who would it be if it wasn't Chang Da Mao?
"I've never done anything like this before. Take a look, what should this big girl do for her dowry?"

Lu Cuihua thought for a while, and said: "I tell my wife, when a girl from an ordinary family gets married, the conditions are better. These 8 satin-covered quilts are indispensable. The rich and noble families in the slaves' hometowns buy them like this."

"That's right." Wei Pucao also added, "We have to prepare 100 chickens, all of which have to be painted red, and prepare a red-lacquered wooden barrel, and put the chickens in it, which means hundreds of sons and thousands of grandchildren."

"Madam is distinguished now, and she is a pleasant person of the fifth rank. Naturally, this eldest girl is the daughter of an official family, and the dowry is at least 8." Xie also added, "The clothes that suit the seasons throughout the year are at least 2% per season. 6 sets, if you pay more attention, 8 to [-] sets are also feasible."

Mrs. Xie is worthy of being the former general's wife, she explained clearly the attention of officials and eunuchs in a few words, "In addition to these, there are also jewelry heads, and a few sets should be put on according to the season..."

After a pause, he continued: "This is compared to the treatment of a prostitute at home."

Su Yun nodded and said: "The elder girl's parents died early, and her brother is gone. She has suffered a lot in these years. The so-called elder sister-in-law is like a mother. I can't lose her as a sister-in-law. As women, we must , if the dowry is more, you will be tougher when you get to your in-law's house. Aunt Xie, did you have a maidservant whom you were familiar with before? The nanny who taught you should also invite one, and there is also a maidservant who married with the eldest girl."

When Mrs. Xie heard this, she thought for a while and said, "Mrs. Hui, in fact, this old slave has someone in mind, but, just..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that the old woman's family gave birth to a child from the old slave's family. Something happened at home, so they were sent back. The family is good, honest and honest. They didn't want to leave at first. The slaves drove them away abruptly. If they are invited to be companions, they will keep the eldest girl from being bullied after she gets married..."

Su Yun thought for a while, no matter who Lu Xier marries, she must have a loyal but capable person to accompany her, otherwise she really doesn't feel at ease.This Xie family is not bad, and he is also a sensible person. Through observations in the past few months, he is a person who can be entrusted to.

Since it was the person she recommended, it should be roughly correct.

It's just that this matter is related to the happiness of the eldest sister's life, so I have to look at it again.

Thinking of this, he said: "Maybe I can find someone now? If you can find someone, please bring me to have a look. Don't worry, as long as they are loyal to the young lady, I will not treat them badly."

After a pause, he continued: "The Son of Heaven pardons the world, and General Han should be back soon. If this matter is settled for me, I will allow you, mother and daughter, to be free. How about it?"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Xie quickly knelt down and kowtowed, "Thank you Madam for your kindness. Madam, but please rest assured that Madam has a great kindness to Lao Nu's family. Lao Nu has a black heart and a rotten belly. No one can deceive Madam. , That would be like a thunderbolt. That family is still living in Yunzhou, so this old slave will go and find them and let Madam pass by."

"I don't worry about your work."

Su Yun chuckled, and pretended to be sad and said: "To be honest, since my aunt came to our house, I have been a lot lighter. If you really want to leave, I really don't want to part with it. You know, my family is orphaned and widowed. , with the help of a sensible person like my aunt, I can feel a lot more at ease."

After hearing this, Mrs. Xie was moved.

In all fairness, although she is the wife of a general, a hairless Phoenix is ​​not as good as a chicken. Since her husband's accident, the life of the mother and daughter is not as good as a pig or a dog.If it wasn't for Su Yun wanting them to buy it, I don't know what kind of abuse it would be.

And ever since they came to this house, the hostess has always treated each other with courtesy, although she calls herself a slave and that one also calls herself a wife, but in the process of getting along, Mrs. Xie never felt slighted. On the contrary, I feel that this lady treats others peacefully, as if she has no concept of dignity.

Although I feel that this approach is a bit inappropriate, but we are all human beings, we were rich and honored before, and now we can be treated as equals, it is impossible not to be moved in this heart.

Although this lady got the promise today, Mrs. Xie has thought about it. Even if the master comes back, his family will have no livelihood and no money. My natal family was also implicated, and after I came back, I couldn't find a living for a while, and I had to ask my wife for guidance. If I managed this matter well, at least I could get a wife Huanxin, why don't you open your mouth then?
Mrs. Xie is different from ordinary servants. After all, she has been the head of the house and has read some books. This way of thinking is different from others.

It's not that she is selfish, it's just that when people have nowhere to go, they always habitually want to grasp at straws...
