Chapter 237 Better to marry a wealthy slave than a small maid...
Chapter 237 I would rather marry a slave from a wealthy family than a virgin...
The youngest of the six, Wang'er and Xing'er, was two or three years older than Jia Lian. Except for Xing'er, the family had already made plans. His father proposed to marry the niece of an old steward in the Dongfu next door.
This old steward is none other than Steward Qi, who was under Xichun's family and was rescued by Jia Cuizhu.
Speaking of which, Steward Qi was originally the low-level steward in charge of a small caravan to the south of Ningguo Mansion.
But since he was accidentally rescued by Jia Cuizhu that year, and showed his face at Xichun for some reason, he has become more and more valued by others. In addition, he was also allowed to visit Xichun during the New Year period, and he has a close relationship with his master.
, the situation has also developed in recent years.
The main thing here is of course Xiao Xichun's face. Even though she is still young, as the only mistress of Dong Mansion who is always in front of Jia Lian and the old lady, countless people in Ning Guo Mansion are paying close attention to her, both covertly and openly.
Especially when Jia Lian is very concerned about the Sichun sisters, not to mention other things, the two "dowries" of the little earth dragon and the elf tree have attracted the jealousy of countless high-ranking dignitaries in Shenjing City.
Another thing is, who caused the disparity in status between the Jia family and the east and west now? The gap is really too big.
Even Jia Zhen, who holds the position of patriarch, was sent to Luzon overseas by Jia Lian two years ago to reflect on herself for half a year.
Faced with such a thing at that time, no one from the Jia family in the entire Shenjing City dared to speak out for Jia Zhen. Even Jia Jing, who was hiding in the Ningguo Mansion and "cultivated immortality," did not say a word.
In this way, the importance of Xichun in the hearts of everyone in Ningguo Mansion becomes even more apparent...
Xing'er, his father, found him such a wife who knew everything about her and was still on the road to success. It was indeed extremely appropriate.
Of course, this is actually the old-school thinking of the older generation. With Xing'er's current strength as a Houtian realm warrior, he has already been able to escape from such barriers.
It is even possible for the two of them to break through and become a quasi-innate powerhouse if they can get some more opportunities. By then, the two of them will have the foundation to stand on their own.
It's just that Wang'er and Xing'er have never thought of being independent.
It has to be said that this system of family-born children and domestic slaves does have its advantages. As a vested interest, Jia Lian is actually not very good at making changes rashly.
All he could do was to subtly try to give personal respect to Xing'er, Wang'er or other people who were close to him.
As for Wang'er and the others, it was Jia Lian who made the decision the year before last and let them each look for the maids they liked in the various courtyards of the mansion.
Whether she is in the aunts' courtyard or in the ladies' courtyard, as long as she is willing and has not been insulted by the Jia family men, she can do it!
To this end, other unmarried and relatively low-income men of the right age in the legion were specially organized to come together for a social event.
On that occasion, twenty-one couples, including Wang'er and others, got married. It was a grand occasion and enviable.
Although some people will inevitably say harsh words in private, such as being dragged to be a boy, but in fact, even if these young men have been with the army for a year or two at last, they are all at least ten-level warriors.
My whole body has been thoroughly tempered through hard work, and my whole body has a strength of eight to nine hundred pounds. In the future, even the most unpromising hard work will definitely be able to support a family.
What's more, just by being a member of the Rongguo Mansion's personal guard, as long as the person is not of bad character and cannot be saved, he will definitely not end up in the same end.
Otherwise, why would Jia Lian interfere with their marriage?
Of course, there were indeed people and girls' families who couldn't see through this. Jia Lian specifically asked Wang'er and the others to privately ask the girls and their families for their opinions.
Although Jia Lian's intervention can indeed solve all this forcefully, it is the young men themselves who will have to live in the future.
Sure enough, this question really revealed that the two families are short-sighted, or they are determined to fly to the branches and become aunts because of their own color, so let them go and choose someone else.
The reason why Wang'er and the others were willing to marry the maids in the mansion was that they felt that they had the same background as him after all, and it would be much easier to get along in life in the future.
There is another old saying: It is better to marry a slave of a rich family than to marry a little girl!
There is naturally a lot of wisdom in survival and housekeeping here, but of course there is no absolute answer to everything in this world.
It's just that the probability of a maid from a wealthy family having a good wife is indeed much higher than that of a daughter from a small family.
As the saying goes, if the family has a good wife, the husband will not suffer any misfortune.
Whether a small family can live well, the choice of wife is also very important.
…
Annan.
Although the Rongguo Mansion did not directly participate in the war, it still focused part of its intelligence system on this side. At the same time, the Nanyang Fleet's transportation capacity was also appropriately tilted here.
After nearly two months of mobilizing troops and generals, in early June, a total of 60,000 troops mobilized by Daqing from the Jiangnan Camp and the General Military Office of Guidi finally arrived in Annan after a bumpy sea journey, and completed their assembly in Hue.
At the same time, the Daqing border troops in the Yunnan-Guizhou region bordering Annan also began to move, and there were signs of launching a feint attack to attract Er Ruan's attention.
Obviously, if Er Ruan turns a blind eye to the changes in the border town of Yunnan and Guizhou, then this feint attack will turn into a real large-scale attack in the blink of an eye.
Before this, when facing the Daqing Annan Allied Forces led by King Yi Zhong, Er Ruan performed admirably. Although they lost ground one after another, and even lost the capital Hue, at least they did it in the face of such a powerful enemy.
Resisting step by step, most of Annan's elite strength was always preserved.
Even in the face of the embarrassing situation of Daqing's all-out attack, Annan Erruan still maintained the strength to fight. From this point of view, Annan's monarchs and ministers at least made no strategic mistakes.
At present, they are implementing the strategic policy of exchanging space for time, retreating step by step, and resisting step by step. Judging from the results, this strategy cannot be said to be wrong.
But at this time, facing the full strength of the Daqing military, even if it was only the troops in the southern theater, Er Ruan was obviously under great pressure.
In a very short period of time, they were faced with a situation where they could not take care of both ends. Originally, Annan only had to face the military fronts from north to south in the land of Yunnan and Guizhou.
However, as the situation of Daqing's rise on the sea took shape, King Yi Zhong even formed a coalition army to land from the sea and land in the port city south of Annan.
The Union Army marched all the way from south to north and conquered. They defeated the Annamites in a very short time. Even before the Union Army captured Hue, everything went smoothly and basically did not encounter large-scale resistance from the Annamites.
.
It was also the loss of Hue that made Annan and Nguyen learn from the pain and finally move towards a true alliance. It was only after they made up their minds and used the indulgence of the alliance army to win the first victory.
The Daqing military's attacks came one after another...
