Rebirth of First Daughter

For lunch, there are six dishes and one soup, including fried beef with bamboo shoots, shredded pork with fish flavor, West Lake sweet and sour fish, hot and sour Shizitou assorted beehive tofu, stir fried cabbage and one mouthful of mushroom soup.

Han Jianming looked at a table of dishes and said with a smile, "mother, how do you cook so many dishes today?"

Qiushi said with a smile: "today is such a big happy event, how can we not add food." Know son Mo ruo mother, just Han Jianming's appearance, she knows is to take a fancy to this girl.

Han Jianming cleverly didn't answer, holding Qiu Shi to sit down: "mother, do so many dishes, you also want to eat more." Qiu believed in Buddhism and originally wanted to be a vegetarian. Or Yuxi thinks it's bad for her health and urges her to eat meat. So on weekdays, Qiu Shi will also eat some meat.

After lunch, Qiu went for a walk in the yard to eat: "tomorrow, I'll let the matchmaker go to Xiang's house tomorrow."

"Cough..." Han Jianming coughed: "mother, how can you be so hasty?" He knew a lot about the Xia family, but he knew nothing about the Xiang family. Even if he thinks this girl is very good, he will not act rashly without knowing the details of the other party.

Qiu's disguise annoyed: "what's rash? After the new year, you are all 41 years old, and you don't have to step up If she marries a wife earlier, she will be able to have her own grandchildren in her lifetime. It's just that she can't say it.

Han Jianming did not hide from Qiu, said: "I have let Han Hao to check, this thing wait for Han Hao to come back again." If there is something wrong with Xiang family, even if he has a good feeling for Xiang Zixin, he can't marry her.

Qiu felt that Han Jianming thought too much: "what's easy to investigate? What can a girl's family do to violate the law and discipline? And the girl knew at first glance that she was well bred. " I learned the rules and etiquette very well, and I spoke in a low voice.

Han Jianming had a bitter smile in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face: "mother, if the girl of this family is a sweet girl, she will be restless again. If so, I would rather not marry. " Ye's tossing has already cast a shadow on Han Jianming. And because of Ye's family, Yunqing is alienated from the Han family. Ye was chosen by his grandmother. He had no choice. This time, he must be cautious. The Han family can no longer afford to toss.

Qiu Shi is silent next way: "if this item girl can't, that Niang finds again for you, always can find a good."

Han Jianming said, "listen to my mother." No matter how gentle I am, I am not as good as my wife.

Yu Cong spoils his concubine and destroys his wife. With such a bloody example, no one in the officialdom dares to make the same mistake again.

Han Hao's action was very fast, and half a day later he checked the Xiang family: "master, the Xiang family separated five years ago, and Master Wu San didn't get much property. Three years ago, Wu got sick. He spent a lot of money, but he never got well. "

Han Jianming asked a question: "what does the Wu family mainly depend on now?"

Han Hao said: "Wu also has a shop and 60 mu of land. The shop has a rent of 182 yuan a year, and the food collected in the field is enough for their family to chew." Under normal circumstances, the money and food also ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing. But the problem is that Wu has been taking medicine for many years, which is a bottomless pit.

After a pause, Han Hao said: "the Third Master of Xiang family has no ability, but he is honest. Now the Xiang family's housework is managed by the elder girl Xiang, and her younger siblings are also in charge. "

Han Jianming nodded his head and asked, "why hasn't Xiang's eldest daughter been allowed to leave yet? Has this been found out? "

Since Han Hao went to check, he must find out clearly: "the big girl of Xiang family was dragged down by her family." Xiang's family has no money to buy a dowry for their daughter.

Xiang Zixin is very good-looking. She has studied and read since she was a child. In fact, as long as she reduces her requirements, she can marry a good family even without a dowry. But she was worried about her family and asked for three thousand dowry. As a result, it was delayed until now.

Han Jianming is quite satisfied with the fact that master Xiang San is not a troublemaker and that the eldest daughter of Xiang family is able to manage the family. As for Wu's illness, he will be treated by a good doctor at that time. Even if he can't cure it, he can still afford the medical expenses. With a good first impression, Han Jianming thinks it's good to marry Xiang Zixin.

When Qiu heard that Han Jianming was willing to marry Xiang Zixin, he was so happy that he ate an extra bowl of rice in the evening: "tomorrow I will let the matchmaker go to Xiang's house to propose marriage." She would like to marry Xiang Zixin tomorrow, so that she can have her own grandchildren next year.

Han Jianming said, "OK."

Seeing off Han Jianming, Li's mother said: "old lady, it can't be urgent. It's better to ask someone about it. The girls of Xiang family are all seventeen years old and haven't engaged yet. We have to know why. If there is any hidden disease, it will be troublesome. " Most of the Jiangnan women marry at the age of 16. The situation of Xiang girls is not suspicious.

Qiu Shi thought about it and nodded and agreed: "you go to ask Han Hao and see what the reason is."

Half an hour later, Li's mother came back and told Han Hao, "old lady, the reason why Xiang's daughter didn't get married is that she asked for a dowry of 3000 Liang." Qiu mainly wanted to

Qiu Shi laughed and said: "three thousand Liang betrothal gifts are not much." When they married ye, they bought a dowry of 12000 taels of silver. Three thousand taels, only a quarter of the original. But because it's a second marriage, I can't compare with the original one.

Mother Li said quickly, "old lady, the betrothal gifts of Xiang's eldest daughter are all said to stay in her mother's home." Those who want to marry can't afford it; Those who can afford the money are not willing to spend money to marry a girl from a poor family, but also with a lot of burden.

Qiu asked in surprise, "why?" This situation is obviously abnormal.

Mother Li said, "the Xiang family's wife is in poor health. The Xiang family's girl wants to leave more money for her wife to see a doctor."

Qiu is very satisfied: "is a filial child." She decided to add two thousand taels of silver to the dowry.

Early the next morning, Qiu asked Han Hao to invite the official media. The matchmaker originally thought that calling her to the door was for Chang Ge'er, but she didn't expect that it was for Han Jianming. Immediately a promise, unless brain pumping, will refuse this marriage. With the thick red seal, the matchmaker went out happily. Made this pro, take the red seal is worth more than half a year's income.

On Xiang's side, seeing that the matchmaker didn't take Joe, he readily agreed.

Qiu was eager to marry his daughter-in-law, so he decided to get married years ago. Qiu also wanted to set the wedding date on the 26th of the first month after the new year, which was blocked by Han Jianming. A month's time is too hasty, and he has a lot of things on hand. After negotiating with Qiu, Qiu decided to marry on the sixth day of March. Rao is so, after the new year, the governor's office is also busy.

On the 28th of December, Yuxi received a letter from Han Jianming, knowing that he would continue to marry.

See cloud Qing looking at her, jade Xi will put down the letter said: "big brother in March next year to get a wife." Han Jianming is 40 years old. The girl in this family is only 17 years old, which is quite different.

Cloud Qing hears this words to say immediately: "this time don't marry again two six not cent of come back." Ye's shadow is too deep for him.

Yuxi shook his head and said, "I don't think so. Elder brother's vision is very good." If you are a muddle headed person who can't hold up the trouble, I don't like it either.

Yun Qing said: "this is the best. You don't have to worry if the Han family has a capable housewife. " I hate the Han family's fart, so I come to Yuxi.

Yuxi let out a sigh.

Cloud engine some don't understand, ask a way: "good end ground sigh what gas?" If this marriage is not proper, it is not

Yuxi said with a bitter smile: "I think this world is too unfair to women. As long as a man of power and power can marry a young girl at the age of seventeen or eighteen even at fifty; And women... Never heard of a 50 year old woman marrying a 17-year-old man. " Let alone a woman who is 50 years old, a widow who is 20 years old can't marry a man who is 17 or 18 years old unless he is too poor to afford a daughter-in-law.

For a moment, Yunqing didn't know how to answer this question. After a long time, Yunqing said: "don't think so much." It's hard to change this phenomenon.

Yuxi just sighed: "I hope I can improve the status of women in my lifetime."

Cloud Qing holds the hand of jade Xi to say: "you have already done a lot for them, don't tired oneself." There is no interference in the remarriage of widows, which is written into the law. In addition, if a woman wants to go to the government with Li Di Zhuangzi, the government is not allowed to shirk. Once shirking is found, the official's black hat will be gone.

Yuxi shook his head and said, "it's not enough." What she did was just a drop in the bucket. It's a long way to go to improve the status of women.

Cloud engine way: "this kind of thing must come slowly." This old custom, which has been handed down for hundreds of years, can not be changed in a few years.

Yuxi leaned on Yunqing's shoulder and said softly, "hurui, it's my greatest blessing to meet you in my life." No matter what she does, cloud engine supports her unconditionally, otherwise she will not do so smoothly.

"It's also my blessing to meet you." Cloud Qing does not want to continue this topic, said: "Uncle brother remarried this matter, let Hua Ge Er know." Hua Ge'er is a member of the Han family, but there are 365 days in a year, 360 days in the palace. After five years together, haoge'er has completely regarded huage'er as his own person.

Yuxi nodded: "I'll tell him later. By the way, the elder brother asked his second sister-in-law to treat his daughter-in-law to Chang Ge'er. He should be able and shrewd. The second sister-in-law thinks that Xu Yue and Lu yunyun meet the requirements of the elder brother. " Although it's a private matter, Xu Zhen and Lu Fei are both great generals. Xu Zhen, in particular, is good at fighting and has made great achievements in these years.

Yun Qing said, "Xu Zhen doesn't like Han Jiachang." As for whether Lu Fei would agree to the marriage, he didn't know. However, he will remind Lu Fei. As for whether he would agree to the marriage, it was Lu Fei's business.

Yuxi said with a bitter smile, "brother Chang, if you don't become a martial arts man, you'll feel pity for Yu. If you have a good son in the future, the Han family won't be at peace." Han Jianming is only 40 years old. As long as Xiang Zixin is healthy, there must be a legitimate son.

Cloud engine disapproves of a way: "if the di son is outstanding, that he can oneself Bo future, which still can stare at the one mu three cent land in the home." If so, it is not outstanding.

Yuxi said with a wry smile: "when the world is settled, there must be a title in the Han family. No matter how capable you are, you can still earn a title. " Han's family is her mother's family, and Han Jianming has done a lot for them over the years. In the future, the lowest reward will be the marquis.

Yunqing really didn't think that far, but he soon said, "what else can be argued about? Han Jiachang is recorded in the name of Ye, the eldest son of Zhenger Bajing. He must be the one who has won the title. "

Yuxi looked at Yunqing and said, "if it were you, the eldest son would be fatuous and incompetent, and the second son would be smart and capable. Who would you choose to be your successor?"

Cloud Qing doesn't want to also don't want to say: "must be di eldest son." Although Han Jiachang's eldest son has moisture, his identity can not be changed if he is recorded in Ye's name.

For this answer, Yuxi is not surprised: "big brother is not you, he will choose more capable people to inherit the family." The elder brother values the inheritance of the family, and his wish since childhood is to revitalize the family and let the Han family return to the center of power, so he went to her. Therefore, if the Xiang family does not have a son in the future or the son is useless, the elder brother will be appointed. Once his own son is excellent, he will certainly change his successor. But heirs are not so easy to exchange.

Cloud Qing after listening to Yuxi's analysis, said: "since not competent, that let Han Jiachang when a rich man is also good."

That's what I said, but I must have resented that what originally belonged to me was taken away. The so-called misfortune, the house is restless, if the Han family can really prosper?

Think of here, Yuxi some happy way, fortunately Qihao enough excellent, can clamp live triplets. If not, it will be a trouble in the future.

Cloud engine some helplessly said: "you ah, just think too much." Who knows what will happen ten or twenty years later.

After dinner, Yuxi tells Hua Ge'er about Han Jianming's remarriage. On weekdays, Hua Ge'er seldom has dinner with Yu Xi. It's not that Yu Xi and Yun Qing don't agree, but Hua Ge'er doesn't want to.

"I see, aunt," said Hua, with a flat look After he came back, he ate and lived in the palace, and the Han family only went back during the Spring Festival. Since Han Jianming went to Jiangnan, he has never gone back for the holidays. In a word, Wangfu is his real home.

Xuan elder brother son frowns to ask a way: "Niang, the eldest uncle married a wife later can be bad to cousin?" Hua Ge'er lives in the palace and has frequent contact with triplets. After a long time, she naturally gets along with her feelings.

Yuxi said with a smile, "No

You elder brother son hum a way: "this stepmother doesn't have a few good.". Mother, what if that woman marries an ugly and lazy daughter-in-law for her cousin in the future? " The main reason is that you Ge'er hears too many stories about evil stepmother.

Qi Hao's affection for Hua Ge'er is second only to his brother: "mother, what ah you is worried about is unreasonable."

Yunqing found that not only Yuxi thought more, but also several children thought more.

Yu Xi laughs and says, "don't worry. The daughter-in-law Hua Ge'er will marry in the future must be nodded by me and your father." Big brother will certainly give you this face.

Throw away the love, only huage'er will become Qihao's arm in the future, and she won't ignore huage'er's life.

Youge'er put his hand in his heart and said, "I'm relieved."

"Thank you, Auntie and uncle. Thank you for your son and three young masters," Hua said gratefully All these years, he was glad to stay in the palace.

Yuxi touched huage'er's head and said lovingly: "it's all a family. What can I thank you for?"
