Chapter 109 Wrestling
In fact, it is not surprising that Shi Lin thinks so, she is no less likely to go out than the old lady, and she understands what is going on outside, so she is not optimistic about her mother's plot, but in fact, regardless of the facts, she still cares about Sister Hui's matter. want to fight for.

Thinking about it this way, Shi Lin made up her mind and said, "Sister Fang, although I say I am willing, Lord Hou is definitely not willing. Just like a wooden girl, Lord Hou hasn't let go yet. How dare I mention it?" Girl Fang, you must know that Uncle Mu is a second-rank official." Only this, Shi Lin knew that she could get stuck in the old lady's thoughts, so she purposely expressed her concerns in a difficult way.

Sure enough, when Mrs. Shi heard this, she immediately became unhappy. What is this called? It is because she dislikes the second child's official position, so she sneered and said: "Now it seems that Lord Hou really has power and does not recognize anyone. We are dignified He doesn't even think about the eldest lady of the Duke's Mansion, and he doesn't even think about it. When the master first fell in love with him, he is the current Lord Marquis, so don't be shy." The old lady wanted to say something bad, but In the end, she was old and tenacious, and she swallowed the evil words she was about to utter.

When Shi Lin heard this, her face turned purple. The old lady's words were a slap in the face, but thinking of Master Hou's actions, she was indeed a bit wronged. She was afraid of offending her mother, so she had no choice but to soften her tone: "Mother! Where is he thinking about? It’s not that Hou Ye doesn’t look down on our family, but now that he is in a high position, if he really wants to marry the girl Hui from the elder brother’s family instead of marrying the girl Fang from the second brother’s family, then it’s just a matter of waiting. Do you want people to say that our brothers and sisters are not in harmony?" No way, Shi Lin could only talk about the suspicion of outsiders.

Hearing this, the old lady could understand it. After all, outsiders don't know their own situation, and marriage needs to be done right. She insisted that her daughter be married to Fang girl. Seeing that there is no suitable woman in the family to match Brother Can, otherwise she would not be obsessed with her daughter who finally returned home. Thinking about it this way, her expression eased, and seeing her daughter's embarrassing face, she unconsciously softened her tone , sighed and said: "Lin'er, listen to your mother, Miss Fang is good, you have to believe in your mother, in the future I will make you think that marrying girl Fang is the best choice." Once the old lady said this, she had made up her mind .

When Shi Lin heard her mother seemed to have made up her mind, her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that the old lady really made up her mind to let Brother Yuan become the lord?If it was because of herself that Mother made up her mind like this, she really felt that she had sinned, and she also knew that the eldest brother would never give up the title to the second brother's family, so she didn't dare to accept the old lady's words. With this decision, even if she can't marry Hui girl, she doesn't dare to marry Fang girl, so she smiled bitterly and said: "Mother, I will tell you the truth today, Fang girl probably won't be able to marry, let alone Hou Ye. , as far as my mother-in-law is concerned, it is impossible to get through, after all, the current world is not good enough."

What the old lady heard from her daughter meant that she was unwilling to settle for Sister Fang, and she felt very disappointed. She was also very arrogant, and she wanted to say no, but she didn't want to. Naturally, her granddaughter has a good family. But thinking of Sister Fang's expectant and beautiful face, she suddenly couldn't get angry again. After all, her daughter's home is indeed a good place for women, so she thought about it for a while, and felt that this matter cannot be settled overnight, and there is a chance After all, she believes that her daughter can still listen to her. The key is the son-in-law. It seems that this matter can only be discussed in the future. It is better to delay it now. It is best to keep Brother Can. The child will have ideas everywhere, and she will be good at that time.

Thinking of this, the old lady regained her spirits, but her face was still not good-looking, she just said indifferently: "Since you said that, I have nothing to say, but, mother still said the same thing, don't rush to draw conclusions , think about it again, this matter can't be settled in a short while, so don't be stubborn." Seeing her daughter staring, she quickly waved her hand to stop her, and then said: "You! Now that the children are still young, even if you want to Sure, if you don't look for your niece and niece, are you willing to be a girl? Take a step back, do you have other candidates in your hand?"

The old lady asked a good question. Shi Lin was left speechless by her mother's words. She really didn't consider girls from other families. Mrs. Zeng made friends with her. If her family had a daughter, she would be willing, but it's a pity No, thinking of this, she suddenly slapped herself on the head, what is it called? When she talked to her mother, she messed up her plan, but she forgot about it, so she smiled and said: "Mother is right, Brother Can!" It's really not something that can be settled in a day, let's let it go first, by the way, the young master Zeng I brought back today, how do you look at it?"

When Mrs. Shi heard this, she knew that her daughter had compromised, and she probably wanted to let it go for a later date, so she also felt relieved. To tell the truth, if her daughter insisted on going her own way, she would have to come up with a result today. She really couldn't bear to argue with her daughter, and since her daughter changed the subject, she naturally felt at ease, so she eased her tone and said, "This Mrs. Zeng is really a lucky person. This child looks good, polite and gentle. It’s also handsome, and I don’t know who will get this coincidence in the future, his father seems to be a second-rank chief envoy, and this one is the highest official in the region, and this family has a good background.”

Speaking of other people, the atmosphere between the mother and daughter eased up a lot. After listening to the mother's praise, Shi Lin was very happy and said with a smile: "This Zeng family is really good. Mrs. Zeng and I are friends in the boudoir. She wasn't in Beijing in [-], but we still write letters with gifts every day, and our Lord Hou also supports me to associate with her family, so we haven't lost contact over the years. By the way, Mrs. Zeng entrusted me to her family Qing is in Beijing to see a daughter-in-law, do you think there is someone you would like to introduce to her?"

When Mrs. Shi heard this, her heart skipped a beat and she squinted at her daughter. Seeing that she was looking at her steadily, she knew that she was waiting for her words, so she sighed secretly. It seemed that this enemy still wanted to As for Hui girl, her daughter knows that the reason why she said this at this time is probably because she wants to be able to control herself here. Zeng's house is also a good place to go, but she wants Sister Fang to marry Daughter's house, then deliberately thought about it for a while, and then pretended not to care and said: "This Zeng's house is indeed a good place, but I don't think our family has a suitable girl. By the way, how old is this child?"

Hearing this, Shi Lin's heart tightened, and she hurriedly said: "This child is fourteen this year, and it's time to find a wife. Didn't my wife entrust me with this? She has been working with her master all along, where is it?" Of course, she doesn't like the girl from the Zeng family, so she thinks she can get a girl from a wealthy family in Beijing. Don't I think of the girl in our family? Does the mother think that the Zeng family is not good? Does she deserve it? Come to our house?"

Mrs. Shi frowned when she heard this. Ren Zeng's family is a member of the second rank, and one of the parents is a powerful faction. But Brother Can, the family background of the Hou Mansion is much higher than that of the chief envoy, and besides, if he agrees with the Zeng family's matter, then will the daughter take advantage of the situation and call Hui girl?She really couldn't let go of this, even though girl Fang didn't enter her daughter's house, she didn't have to plan to let Brother Yuan take over as a prince, but she really didn't want to give up the second room easily.

The old lady thought about this and that for a while, but hesitated. After thinking about it, this Zeng family can only be good. There are many old-fashioned families in Beijing. I am afraid that Sister Fang will not be able to find her husband's family, but she also loves her in her heart. The Zeng family felt that it would be a pity to just say they gave up, so she didn't dare to say it dead. The old lady was in a dilemma for a while. Forget it. It's tentatively decided first, so the old lady thought for a while and said: "Okay, it's hard to talk about this now, Mrs. Zeng entrusts you, maybe she won't entrust others. Whoever you say is better, they will decide? And Let's see, by the way, I will stay with the children for a while as soon as they come to see me, and let them get close, and the cousins ​​who don't have real relatives are strangers."

Shi Lin originally planned to keep her son. She thought that according to her mother's dislike for Hui girl, she would not be able to do it once she mentioned it. So she came here to keep her son for a few days, otherwise she would Why bother to bring all the children out of the mansion, even she herself is thinking of staying here while Master Hou is not going back to the mansion today, and making good plans, but she has long been guarding against her mother's way of going differently, she is good at it The next path, or directly make the wrong move.

Thinking of this, Shi Lin could only smile wryly. If she really made the wrong move, she would not be the only one who offended her mother. I am afraid that the Duke of Wei's mansion would blame her except for Hui girl and Brother Tao. It is good for Hui girl and Tao brother, but it is not good for others. Even what the old lady and the second brother and the second sister-in-law think are not going to happen at all, and I think the sister-in-law will blame her, after all, if I marry If you lose Hui girl, you will definitely not allow Brother Tao not to accept the title.

Looking at his mother, he thought that if he disobeyed her will in the future, he would probably have to deny himself, right?Thinking about it this way, Shi Lin still felt a little pain in her heart. After all, she was her biological mother, but if she was asked to give up the idea of ​​settling on Hui girl, she would naturally be reluctant, let alone Hui girl is a princess without a mother. The eldest daughter is now, and her uncle's coming back is enough to tempt her. The power of the princess's aunt can be borrowed not only by Hui girl, but also by Master Hou and Brother Can. She will even attend some of the wives' social events by herself. It can also be lifted up, and Hui girl doesn't have a biological mother, so she only knows how to listen to her in the future.

So many benefits are enough to make up for the resistance of her natal family. Thinking about it this way, Shi Lin erased her hesitation, showing her determination to win, looked at her mother, smiled and said: "Okay, since mother keeps them, I am naturally very willing Now, the cousins ​​really should get together here. In the future, Brother Can will only know that there is a wooden cousin, but he will not know the cousins ​​of his uncle’s family. By the way, why are Brother Yuan and his brothers missing today? Why haven't you seen Miss Youhui?" The last sentence is the key point.
