Chapter 237 Confidant?

This made Xiaodong even more confused.

"Then..." What's going on?
"Although the Wu family resigned, Wu Li has been arguing with his mother and refused to remarry. He wanted to marry him, but he went to the temple to say that he wanted to become a monk. There were many quarrels. Another time she directly said that if she wanted to betroth him again, unless it was from the first relationship, otherwise he would not marry in this life."

This person...well, he really has the energy of a rascal.

"Then, can he marry Miss Cheng Yin?"

Zhao Lu shook his head: "It's impossible to marry. His mother also said that if he wanted to marry the bereaved star who was hard-pressed by Ke Deke's elder brother and grandparents, she would enter the door on her side, and hang herself by a rope at the door on the other side." forward."

too strong.

Sure enough, Rompy's mother is also an old Rompie.And having said that, Wu Li's mother occupies a moral position, and a word of filial piety can make Wu Li unable to lift his head.Even if he married Miss Yin and came in, it might not be possible for his mother to hang herself, but it is possible to kill Miss Yin first.

"Then Miss Yin and him won't be able to make it together, and even if they do, life will be difficult."

These days, the life and death of a daughter-in-law is almost in the hands of the mother-in-law. Even if the husband can protect her, but can the husband protect her twelve hours a day?How long can he stay at home?The methods in the inner house are cruel, often killing without blood.

"Wu Li and I have known each other for a long time. When we were studying in the palace, he was the companion of the third son of Uncle Wang's family. He was very clever and talented. Later, we often got together, I have known about him for a long time. Before I met Miss Yin, I had already heard about her from Wu Li. In fact, if he and Miss Yin can make it, maybe the two of them can live well."

"Then... what do you think, brother? What does Miss Yin think of herself?"

Zhao Lu smiled: "I... I'm not in a hurry, and my father didn't rush me. Miss Yin...she wants to go another way." The head of the mountain handed over a letter, saying that he wanted to seek a job in the academy."

Xiaodong's mouth opened slightly—Miss Yin wants to be a professional woman?

Being a working woman in this day and age...

Cough, well, weavers and embroidered mothers are one kind, nuns and Taoist nuns are also one kind, female gentlemen and female teachers are also one kind, and palace servants and female officials in the palace are also one kind, um, Jiaofang Goulan... That is also a kind.

But if it is not impossible, most of the women at this time will still stay at home, and it is the right way to care for their husbands and teach their children.

Compared with these occupations, it is certainly good to be able to find a position as a teacher in the academy. It sounds nice, and it is not exhausting.

But, has Miss Yin really made it that far?
Her uncle's house can no longer accommodate her?
Xiaodong thinks about the few times he has seen Miss Yin, she always dresses generously and plainly, with no jewelry on her head, and her clothes are not made of expensive materials—even the styles are not newly popular.What was she wearing last time in the Fourth Princess Mansion?I couldn't remember it for a while.

Speaking of this life, Xiaodong has never been poor in his life.When she was still young, she had a monthly schedule, as well as various jewelry and playthings, and the annual salary issued by the clan was never too short.King An and Zhao Lu never kept secrets from their only daughter and younger sister, they gave her everything they wanted.When Xiaodong gets married, the dowry can be called ten miles of red makeup, and the various treasures in Zhuangzi's shop are so rich that people's eyes are enthralled.

This doesn't mean Xiaodong doesn't know what it's like to live in poverty.If you are short on cash, you have to carefully treasure a good piece of clothing, and only wear it when you meet guests during the Chinese New Year.It is rare to see meat once a month. Cut a piece of meat and hang it on the beam, and eat it several times—even though this is a wealthy capital, there are still many people living like this.Not everyone in the Shenzhai compound is full of fine clothes and fine food.Most of the people living in Changle Fang are the princes and princes of the clan, but there are some like Prince An's Mansion, and some are dilapidated.With little income, a large population, and a lot of servants to save face, tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, stealing pawns, life is not as good as ordinary rich and wealthy households.

Miss Yin's uncle was a fourth-rank official, so he should be able to live a decent life.

"Don't Miss Yin... don't want to marry anymore? That brother..."

Although there are no rules and regulations, those female teachers and masters in the academy are either widowed or never married.For example, Ou Lanying, a well-known talented woman district master, is a widowed watcher.

Miss Yin's experience is pitiful, but Xiaodong is more concerned about his brother's lifelong happiness.

If Zhao Lu likes her, Xiaodong doesn't mind whether her reputation is damaged or not, and she doesn't have a dowry.

What was Zhao Lu thinking in his heart?
Zhao Lu smiled, and patted her head: "Speaking of it... Miss Yin is different from the girls I've met before. I counted with her, but we didn't talk much. I'm talking, she's listening. I know she understands, understands what's on my mind..."

"So," Xiaodong shook his arm: "Brother likes Miss Yin?"

"I can't say whether I like it or not. Sometimes I think that if she were a man, she would definitely have the same temperament as me and be a confidant. Actually, I went out yesterday because her mother was ill, and I sent some medicine to her... ...She and I have never talked about the relationship between our children, and even... we haven't mentioned the matter of engagement and marriage. She is far away from these mundane things, and others are thinking about finding a good home and marrying a good family. It's like she never thought about it."

Uh, it's really not bad.

Even Xiaodong, who is so modern, thinks that she will be able to settle down in this life after marrying someone. This girl Yin's thinking is really ahead of her time.

Every talented woman always has something different from ordinary people.

"But brother, this kind of acquaintance between you is the most important thing, but it seems to others that it is a private relationship... If it spreads, what will happen to Miss Yin's reputation?"

Zhao Lu touched her face: "Don't worry, I know it well."

Xiaodong felt that he didn't count very well.

Zhao Lu is quite seasoned and shrewd in other aspects, why is he a bit confused about this?
If Miss Yin is not a lady of every family, but a top name in the teaching workshop, then it doesn't matter to be a confidante.But Miss Yin...

Why does Xiaodong feel that although he asked his brother clearly about this matter, when he came back and thought about it, he became even more confused?

Does Miss Yin like her brother?Why contact me if you don't like it?Are you trying to use him?If you like it, why don't you marry?Is it because he is afraid that his reputation will be damaged and he will not be able to enter the palace?

Does brother want to marry her as his wife?If you want to, just ask someone to propose a marriage. If you don't believe it, there is a wife that Prince An's son can't marry.If you don't want to, it's better to make a clean break, so as not to mislead others and yourself.

Alas, it is true that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuchs are in a hurry.

Zhao Lu himself was not in a hurry, and Wang An was not in a hurry, but he was worried.
