On the third day after Li Sanzhi came back, the two brothers Li Dazhi, who had gone out to inquire about the news, finally came back with smiles on their faces and proud faces! As soon as Mrs. Feng saw them, she greeted her two sons into the main room and couldn't wait to ask
Come out!
"Dad, we found out. My eldest brother and I worked hard this time and finally found out. This young master of the Zhu family was really wronged. It was his stepmother who was responsible for it! When we went there, that
The stepmother has been grounded. If this is not a big mistake, how can the head mother of such a wealthy family ignore the rules!" Li Erzhi rubbed his hands.
"Yes, mother, my second brother and I couldn't get any news at first. They were all saying bad things about the young master of the Zhu family. He was originally going to come back, but then we met someone who came out to purchase and found out that those rumors were all
The stepmother spread the news. Think about it. In this wealthy family, there are many rules. Even if it is true that the young master of the Zhu family has something, the news can be easily spread and can cause uproar in the city. Just the person who bought it.
We heard him muttering something about how pitiful the young master was, and we found out after a lot of effort and having to pay him to have a drink with him!" Li Dazhi also said.
"Is this true? Don't try to bluff me, this is something that will affect your girls' whole lives!" Ms. Feng was happy but couldn't believe it. Even Old Man Li looked at his two sons anxiously.
"Dear me, Xiu'er is our sister, can you help me as a brother? I drank so much that I vomited because of my sister!" Li Erzhi looked aggrieved.
"Yes, mother, if you don't believe my second brother, you have to believe me, don't you? I specifically found an opportunity to test the knowledge of the young master of the Fan Zhu family. Although it is not very good, it is very possible to become a scholar. What?
Longyang's addiction is even more nonsense! People are sincere towards Xiu'er. This girl Xiu'er is very lucky. She may be an official wife in the future. The third uncle of the biological mother of the eldest son of the Zhu family
But as an official in the imperial court, if the young master of the Zhu family can achieve fame in the future, he will not have to support him," Li Dalang said.
"That's right, in the future, the eldest brother and the fifth brother may still point to girls!"
"That's great. Having a relative who is an official will bring a lot of light to our family!" Mrs. Feng beamed when she heard this.
"Since the conditions are so good, why would you like Xiu'er? Have you ever inquired carefully?" Old man Li is relatively innocent at last. Rich families have many choices, so they won't find a peasant girl.
"Of course I'm attracted by Xiu'er's beauty and knowledge. I'm not boasting. There are few people in the county who can compare with Xiu'er. Since I was a child, I learned how to read with my fifth brother, so I am a wealthy family.
Their daughters are also comparable, isn't it because our family background is not good, Master Zhu has a rich family fortune, he doesn't care about this at all!" Li Erzhi replied with a smile, his tone was very flattering.
"Dad, now that things have come to this, if Xiu'er doesn't marry the young master of the Zhu family, who else can she marry? This matter is her own fault. Even if there is really something wrong with the young master of the Zhu family, then
She is the one who brought it upon herself. Furthermore, the young master of the Zhu family is now very passionate about Xiu'er. As long as Xiu'er seizes the opportunity and gives birth to a boy and a half girl, she will have hope for the rest of her life. Don't you think so?
Knowing what Xiu'er is like, what else can she do besides embroidery on weekdays? When she marries into a farmer's family or a small family with small businessmen and hawkers, Xiu'er has to take care of the housework and serve her parents-in-law. She can't do it either.
,,"Compared with Li Erzhi, Li Dazhi is indeed a scholar, and he understands old man Li with reason and affection. Li Dazhi doesn't think there is anything wrong with a man having three wives and four concubines. Who doesn't like the warm fragrance of soft jade?
Huai, as long as he takes care of his family and protects his wife and children, Li Dazhi himself has a sweet little widow in the town, but no one knows about it!
"Then,,, let's settle it. Let's set an auspicious date with the Zhu family and get married. Old lady, prepare some dowry for her and add the betrothal gifts together. We are not greedy for their money! "After being silent for a while, Old Man Li finally relaxed.
"Hey, then let's accept this marriage!" Mrs. Feng smiled happily when she saw that her daughter could get a good marriage.
Li Dazhi and Li Erzhi looked at each other. Although they were a little dissatisfied with the large betrothal gift, they thought of the treatment they had received in the Li Mansion these days and kept silent. But they said that the two brothers of the Li family were going to the Zhu Mansion. Just to inquire about it. Before leaving, Mrs. Feng felt sorry for her son and gave her two sons several taels of silver to stay with her. This Li Dazhiyuan also lived in the county for a while. He had been to Linxian County several times and he was very familiar with it. We found an inn where we knew each other, stayed at it, and went to a restaurant to eat and drink.
Originally, the two of them wanted to make some serious inquiries, but they didn't expect that before the two of them finished their meal, the young master of the Zhu family came with his servant to greet them. It turned out that Yuxiu overheard her The elder brothers wanted to go over to inquire about the situation, fearing that they would not come if they heard something. Mr. Li and his wife were even more dissatisfied with the marriage, so they asked Li'er's family to deliver the letter early. These several dates with the young master of the Zhu family were also with Li'er's family. Someone took the lead, but Mrs. Feng always believed in her daughter and didn’t want to check it out when the incident happened. In addition, with Meizi’s instructions, Yuxiu also kept it a secret. The whole family, young and old, didn’t even know that the incident actually happened. It happened to the Meizi family. Yuxiu was also deceived, but what Li Dazhi said about bringing it upon himself is also true.
Let's talk about the young master of the Zhu family. After all, he has received an "elite" education from a wealthy family. At first, he pretended to be a human being and a noble son. The two brothers of the Li family are not stupid either. Look at this. He knew that he couldn't find out anything by asking about the situation. He originally wanted to go back and do what he wanted, but the young master of the Zhu family stayed sincerely. At first, he only entertained people with delicious food and drinks, and the beautiful maids of the family were waiting on him. But the Zhu family Who is the young master? When he saw the two people looking at the beautiful maid, he naturally knew who his two future brothers-in-law were. He immediately led them to the largest flower house in the county. The three of them They didn't leave the flower building for several days and nights. They were having so much fun that they couldn't miss Shu. In the end, they looked like two good brothers.
When the two Li brothers put it all together, this is just a bit lustful. Longyang's addiction is probably just nonsense, and he is quite righteous. This man is not a lecherous person. His own girls have given it to others in private, no. So what if I get married? After all, the Zhu family belongs to a high-ranking family. The young master of the Zhu family is so fawning to the two of them, so he probably has a crush on his own sister. From now on, he will be the official wife. As long as he has another son, he will have someone to rely on for the rest of his life. After playing for a few days, the two of them were a little reluctant to live such a good life, but they were still afraid of worrying their family, so they went back home. When they were done, the eldest young master of the Zhu family gave them another fifty taels of silver as a gift. Now the two of them were completely happy. Where could they find such a good brother-in-law? The benefits of marrying his sister would definitely be great. When she got home, she would naturally only talk about the young master of the Zhu family.
On the third day after the Li brothers returned home, Matchmaker Wu came to their door again. This time the negotiation went smoothly. Taking into account the recent hot weather and the upcoming autumn harvest, the two families decided to set the date on an auspicious day in late October. When Mrs. Liu found out, she sighed again and told Li Sanzhi about the matter. Li Sanzhi went directly to see Old Man Li and didn’t know what Old Man Li said. When Li Sanzhi came back, he just said to leave Mrs. Liu alone. Mrs. Liu listened. Just leave it alone.
Yuezhen always wondered that there was something wrong with this marriage. How could this person from Linxian County run into her sister-in-law in a small town and suddenly fall in love with her? However, Yuezhen also knew that her child's family was , no one would listen to what he said, and the third wife had no say in the family, so it would be a lot of trouble to tell Li Sanzhi and his wife. In addition, the sister-in-law was not a very good person, and the marriage was already decided, so she just let it go. Later, Li Sanzhi and his wife were worried. Yuxiu's life was bleak, and Yuezhen felt guilty. She even wanted to help the villagers more, but some people would not be satisfied no matter what. Of course, this is another story.
"Dad, you've had a hard time going out this time!" Yang followed Li Dazhi in, helped him take off his clothes, shoes and socks, and then made a cup of tea for Li Dazhi, serving him very attentively.
"I've been away for a few days. How is your home?"
"Everything is fine, and the children are well-behaved and obedient. By the way, sir, our parents want to include all the Zhu family's betrothal gifts and prepare some extra. Isn't it too much?" Yang Shi asked cautiously. She was so taken with the bride price and the jewelry in the betrothal gift that she thought it would be great to keep them all!
"Our family is not a poor one. We can't be accused of selling our daughter because of the betrothal gift. Don't mention this matter again! In the future, if I win the lottery, there will be Zizhen in my family to marry. If I say that I am from a good family, , do you also want to keep the betrothal gift and let your daughter go to her husband's house to be laughed at?" Li Dazhi was thinking about the future benefits. He also had more than twenty taels of silver in his hand, and didn't care that he might not be able to get it right now. Well, what he said really touched Yang's heart.
"That's right, that's right, I'm not worried that our parents love our daughter too much and give away all the money to marry her, so my husband will suffer less when he takes the money with him when he goes to take the exam!" In fact, whenever Li Dazhi rushed to take the exam, the Li family was not short. With his money, it is just a little less than the children of wealthy families, but it is still enough to eat well and drink well. It is much better than those who have to live in the temple and eat steamed buns and steamed buns for two meals a day. Although Yang is usually very shrewd, she is submissive in front of Li Dazhi. In this family, Yang does everything according to Li Dazhi's wishes. She has always been careful in front of Li Dazhi, for fear of being a scholar. Her husband-in-law was not happy. In her life, Yang was most proud of marrying a well-known husband-in-law. She admired him very much and was afraid of offending him. She took good care of him in Ashiri, but she didn't know that he was having an affair with the little widow outside. Not sure.
"We parents are free to exercise discretion. You should worry more about the children. Don't be too spoiled, Dalang, Sanlang. Your homework is a mess. You think I don't know! You go out first. I will take a nap. Call me again at dinner. !" Li Dazhi was still recalling the taste of the beauties in the flower house, and was naturally impatient with the Yang family who had long lost their beauty.
Seeing this, Yang carefully closed the door and went out.
