Among the wealthy and aristocratic families in Daliang, the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion can be regarded as inferior to the superiors but more than adequate to the inferiors.
Both sons have ideas and abilities. In addition to the rules of the Hou family, Mrs. Hou never worries that her two sons will not get a wife.
When it came to the marriage of her two daughters, Mrs. Hou was extremely worried.
Mrs. Hou knew very well that in a wealthy family, which family did not hope to have a prosperous family?
Men keep wives and concubines in groups, not only for the sake of female sex, but also for the purpose of spending money.
How many of these aristocratic families in the capital don't know the rules of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion?
Families with daughters are very willing to marry their daughters into the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion.
Families with sons deliberately avoided her.
Mrs. Qi looked at Mrs. Hou, who was frowning, and asked with a smile, "How about Xingchang? Do you want to consider it?"
Mrs. Hou was shocked and looked at Mrs. Qi in disbelief, "Cousin, are you telling the truth? Are you Xingchang?"
No wonder Mrs. Hou was surprised, Jiang Xingchang was really too good.
Although this child does not occupy the longest position in the Jiang family, he is the most outstanding among the men in the Jiang family.
Jiang Shangshu liked him very much since he was a child, and he was taught by Jiang Shangshu from the age of six.
Not surprisingly, Jiang Xingchang will be the next head of the Jiang family.
Mrs. Qi smiled and nodded, "How is it? Are you satisfied with Xingchang being your son-in-law?"
Mrs. Hou nodded repeatedly, "I have watched such an outstanding child grow up, so I am full of joy.
But, aunt and uncle, do you agree to this marriage?"
Mrs. Qi smiled bitterly, lowered her eyes, and said truthfully: "I haven't told my father and mother about this yet.
However, Brother Chang said that he would talk to his grandfather.
As for mother, Rong'er, you don't have to worry about it, as long as father nods, mother will agree."
Mrs. Hou asked worriedly: "Can it be reasonable for someone like my aunt to be so stubborn?"
Mrs. Qi said with relief: "Brother Chang is here! Don't worry! You also know Brother Chang. There is nothing he can't do that he wants to do."
Mrs. Hou asked: "Does Xingchang mean to marry Sister Xing?"
Mrs. Qi nodded, "Yes, Brother Chang, beg me to come here and test your tone.
Rong'er, you don't know how happy I am, I agreed immediately.
I grew up watching Sister Xing, and I have always liked Sister Xing.
We get along well with each other again, and it would be great if we could become in-laws and get closer to each other."
Jiang Xingchang's talent, learning and conduct are outstanding among the young men in the capital, and he is the Jieyuan of Qiubang.
The Marquis of her family said that Xingchang was very likely to pass three yuan.
Such children will surely be the pillars of the country one day.
It would be great if Sister Xing could marry Brother Chang.
While Mrs. Hou was happy, she was still a little uneasy.
Based on her understanding of her aunt, her aunt would not accept this marriage.
Xingchang is my aunt's favorite, and my aunt doesn't like the fact that the uncle of Weiyuan Hou Mansion doesn't take concubines.
"I still think my aunt can't pass the test!" Mrs. Hou said worriedly.
Mrs. Qi comforted and said: "We have to believe in Brother Chang and believe that he can handle it well."
Madam Qi has said so, what else does Madam Hou have to say?
"Cousin, I am naturally very satisfied with this marriage. I will talk to the Marquis when I return home, and the Marquis should also be satisfied."
Mrs. Qi said with a smile: "Okay, you go back and discuss with the Marquis. Later, I will invite a matchmaker, and then I will go to the mansion to propose the marriage."
Mrs. Hou was surprised and said: "Spring is the beginning of the new year. Will discussing marriage at this time affect Brother Chang? Should we wait until after spring?"
Mrs. Qi squeezed Mrs. Hou's hand, leaned towards Mrs. Hou, and lowered her voice and said, "This matter must be settled before spring."
Mrs. Hou looked at Mrs. Qi puzzled, "Why?"
Mrs. Qi's voice became even lower, "Those in the palace have also reached the age of discussing marriage."
After Mrs. Qi reminded her, Mrs. Hou remembered that there were several princesses in the palace who were of age to discuss marriage.
My cousin is worried that the emperor will catch the prince's consort.
Mrs. Hou suddenly understood, raised her hand and patted her head, "Thank you cousin for reminding me, I forgot about it.
I will discuss it with Lord Marquis when I get back, and we can settle the matter as soon as possible."
Shi Jingyang stood outside the car, and with his excellent ears, he could hear the conversation between his cousin's aunt and his mother in detail.
He didn't expect Jiang Xingchang Xinyue Xing's sister.
In his previous life, until he came back, Jiang Xingchang never married, and neither did Sister Xing.
The two lovers are not together. Could it be that Jiang Xingchang failed to convince Jiang Shangshu...
"Your Majesty, something happened." Qing Ping came over quickly to report.
Shi Jingyang came back to his senses, looked at Qingping and asked, "What happened?"
Qingping leaned forward and said: "The Chaoyang Bridge in front has collapsed. This road is no longer feasible. We have to take a detour."
Chaoyang Bridge spans the Shanghe River and connects Yongding Street and Qingyang Street.
After hearing this, Mrs. Hou in the carriage raised the curtain and asked, "Has the Chaoyang Bridge collapsed?"
Qing Ping leaned forward and said: "Back to Madam, yes, the makeup delivery team from Uncle Ning Yuan's Mansion was passing by the Chaoyang Bridge, and the bridge collapsed.
Many people delivering makeup fell down, and now there is chaos over there."
Shi Jingyang said: "The bridge collapsed, we have to take a detour, Qingshan, send someone to direct us, we will turn around."
Mrs. Hou said: "Brother Le, send someone to call Sister Chen and the others back."
Shi Jingyang bowed and responded, "My son will make arrangements, I can rest assured."
The people around Shi Jingyang got the order and quickly dispersed.
After a while, the carriages turned around, and it took half an hour for Shi Jingyang to take his mother and cousin to Dingguo Mansion in a detour.
After his mother and cousin entered the house, Shi Jingyang led Qingshan and others along Yongding Street towards Chaoyang Bridge.
There were crowds of people on both sides of the upper river. Qingshan looked at it and said, "Sir, there are too many people by the river. There is a Sanpinxuan semicolon in front. Let's go to Sanpinxuan."
Shi Jingyang nodded, "Okay, let's go!"
The group of people went to Sanpinxuan. When the shopkeeper saw that his son was coming, he hurriedly greeted them to the second floor and then personally delivered tea.
Shi Jingyang walked to the window and looked over. There was a commotion on both sides of the upper river. The broken bridge was like two cliffs supporting the upper river. There were many people standing scattered on the river.
There was a group of people gathered together, as if they were watching something.
"Master, Qingsong is here." Qingshan came in and reported.
"Please come in!" Shi Jingyang said without looking back.
Qingsong came in and bowed in greeting: "Sir, one of the people who were delivering makeup to Uncle Ning Yuan's house was hit on the head by a collapsing stone when he fell. He died on the spot.
Among the others who fell, six others were injured. Two of them were seriously injured and four were slightly injured."
"I got it! More and more people are gathering. Be careful not to step on anyone. Send a letter to the government and the Military Department and ask them to come quickly to maintain order." Shi Jingyang looked at the crowded riverside road.
