Chapter 597
To be honest, Pei's mother was really shocked when she was suddenly caught by Bian Pingling.
If it weren't for the patriarch's wife who brought them here, she would have thought the other party was coming to cause trouble for her.
Please come in and bring tea and water.
Although the family is no longer as good as before, and can't come up with any blue and white porcelain tea cups set a few thousand taels of silver, it can still be used for ordinary tea cups set a set of one, two taels per set, and it will be paired with the flower tea that Pei himself has a unique flavor.
While drinking tea, Ping Ling looked at Pei’s mother’s neat farmyard. She sighed in her heart: The ancients were the ancients, which was different from her who became a monk halfway through.
Look at the cleanup of Lijia Village, it is like a modern farmyard, clean and tidy. In addition to the house being made of wood, it also has an ancient style, and it almost became a farmyard in the 21st century.
But Pei's mother is different. The yard looks small but poetic.
The walls of the shadow walls made of a few strange rocks, the falling wild orchids, clusters of colorful hydrangeas, and a pool of fine springs "Dingdong", the entire courtyard is full of a small Jiangnan tune, which is both poetic and elegant.
Ahem, please forgive her for taking it to the yard. The first thing she thought about was eating, and she directly turned it into a vegetable garden.
Look at others, this is the real "yard", a spring scenery.
"Are you sure, want to ask me to be a sir?" Pei's mother asked with certainty.
Bian Pingling nodded: "We have a lot of girls, so I'll bother Pei's mother."
Originally, I fell in love with someone else's girl and wanted to marry her as my daughter-in-law, but the relationship hadn't yet reached a clue. The other person first fell in love with her and wanted to invite her home to be a "sir"?
Only wealthy families have always done things like asking for a husband. Even when she was young, her family only hired a retired old palace maid. But now, such a farmer wants to hire a "female husband"?
Pei's mother was a little surprised and moved.
Although I don’t understand why the other party had such an idea, if she let the door, would she be able to find out more about her future daughter-in-law?
Pei's mother thought it was pretty good, but she didn't want to hear the news and rushed back. When her son Pei Liyan heard it, she immediately frowned and was a little unhappy.
Although his son is only fifteen years old, he already has the style of leading the family.
"Mom, why do you want to get engaged to me?"
Pei's mother was stunned for a moment: "You are old, shouldn't you be engaged?"
She was a little confused, and seemed to be a little confused about why her son asked this question.
"Mom, you forgot that I told you before that I would study hard and refer to the imperial examinations. Lifetime events will be discussed when I pass the imperial examination. I also agreed at that time."
After reminding this, Pei's mother remembered: "This is indeed the case, but..." She said embarrassedly, "The girl is so good. What if we don't book it earlier and let someone snatch it away?"
"I tell you, the girls in that family are really good, and there are a lot of people who want to grab them. I heard many of them say that they want to grab the girls in this family because the other party's requirements are too high and it is difficult to grab them."
"Aren't I afraid that she would be snatched away if she was too late?"
Pei Liyan had a headache. He knew exactly how soft his mother's ears were. So before going out, he would give in and ask his aunt to stare at him. He would send him a little bit of trouble, so he would not be caught off guard.
I didn't expect that even if it was this kiss, he had just arrived at the school and heard the news that his mother wanted to get him into an engagement. This is really...
He absolutely didn't believe it, it was just a coincidence. Which girl from the family was so coincidental that she got to his mother's ears?
"Mom, tell me honestly, is someone saying something in your ear? For example, which girl is good, it will definitely be good to marry her."
Pei's mother has always loved her son, and she naturally answered whatever her son asked, and she told her one by one.
Pei Liyan silently remembered it in his heart, always doubting that these people who came to chat with him had ulterior motives, especially the Li family who wanted to ask her mother to be her husband.
If it weren't for this, his mother had hired a matchmaker. The other party didn't say he could avoid it, but he even took the initiative to come to the door to ask his mother to be a husband? I'm afraid this is to win over his mother so that he can "respect filial piety" and marry his girl?
Haha! I had a good idea.
He had never thought that he had become so low-key. In order to avoid someone targeting their family, he didn't even buy a maid for his mother. He only had four acres of thin land on the surface, so that he could be targeted by others.
It seems that no matter how simple the people in this village are, they still have the kind of vanity and greed.
"Mom, think about it carefully. If your son passes the exam, who will your son make friends with you then? If you talk about marriage at that time, which circle of people will be from?"
"I know you want me to marry a good woman, but mom, this matter is unhurried."
"No matter how good the girl from the farm is, she is not suitable for your son. Your son is destined to pass the imperial examination and become an official. If you ask me to marry a farm girl, how can you help your son deal with his wife?"
"Others are cultivated by big families for a lot of money. They are well-educated and proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, but they are a farm girl..."
"Mom, I'm not saying that the farm girl is not good, but do you think she is suitable for your son?"
"It would be fine if your son was an idle rich man all his life, but your son wanted to participate in the imperial examination and become an official."
...
After being told by her son, Pei's mother suddenly felt a little regretful.
She was indeed a little too impulsive. She just heard people praise the girl and immediately hired a matchmaker. She forgot that no matter how good the girl they praised, she was just a girl from a farmer. If her son became an official in the future, would this farmer girl still deserve it?
"I... I'm sorry, I didn't think so much about it. I just think that everyone says she is a good girl, so I should help you catch it."
Pei's mother looked ashamed.
She also knew that she had soft ears and tried to avoid them, but sometimes she still couldn't control herself.
It was okay when her son was around, but she just listened to her son, but her son was not by her side...
"Brother Yan, mom is dragging you down again."
Seeing that his mother corrected her mistakes, Pei Liyan naturally came back and comforted her, saying that it was not her fault, but that her mother was just too kind to him.
If you have to blame, you have to blame those who have ulterior motives. You don’t know what path you have taken. You deliberately talk about these in your mother’s ears, which will make your mother have other thoughts.
"Mom, Aunt Liu's next door is a good person. You can chat with her more if you have nothing to do. It's okay to visit her occasionally, but if you have anything to do, please let me know my son and listen to my son's opinions before talking?"
"I will listen to you from now on. Mom promises that this is the last time." Pei's mother hesitated for a moment, "but, Yan Ge'er, Mom promised that they were husbands, this matter..."
Judging from what my son meant, it seemed that she suspected that the family had ulterior motives, but she had promised someone else to be a husband. Isn’t it a bit bad to regret it now?
