Because the greeting invitation had been sent here earlier, I heard that someone came to propose marriage today. And it was Xu Yi who was in the prince's residence. The old lady of the Yuan family immediately ordered people to collect all the information about Xu Yi.
In just one hour, everything that happened to Xu Yi from his birth to yesterday was presented to Mrs. Yuan's family.
Women have always made the decision in the Yuan family. Men are just foils, so it was a woman who came forward in this matter. Ah Si's mother was particularly nervous. Even Yuan Yongyi was immediately invited back.
Ah Si’s mother sighed. “I gave birth to several daughters in a row. Every day I worried that they would not be able to get married and would end up in my own hands. Fortunately, even though the girls were returned, they could still pack their bags and go out. Ah Si was the one who worried me the most.
Yes, that girl is reckless. She doesn’t look like a girl. I thought it was a slow-selling product, but I didn’t expect someone else to take a liking to it. Mother, you are very considerate. You sent her to the Prince of Chu’s palace early to show her face. This is not a business.
Already."
Ah Si's mother is now engaged in business, so she talks about goods and business.
The old lady of the Yuan family said proudly: "If you have some confidence in our girl from the Yuan family, aside from her temper, she is in demand."
By saying this, I was deceiving myself. Has anyone asked the girls in the Yuan family over the years?
People of similar status would not bother messing with girls from the Yuan family and look down upon her.
For those whose status does not match, people feel that there is no need to climb high to avoid being offended. After all, the Yuan family is also famous for being domineering in Beijing, and the biggest thorn in the side is the old lady of the Yuan family.
In the eyes of many people, the Yuan family is unreasonable and will not be like ordinary families. Because of their status, they set some rules to regulate their people. Any family that follows rules has moral standards.
Their family didn't have one, and they acted according to their likes and dislikes. Therefore, the brothers and girls of the Yuan family either couldn't find wives or couldn't find husbands.
Ah Si came back last night, but she didn't know that Xu Yi was coming to propose marriage today. She just wanted to say hello to her family first and make mental preparations. Unexpectedly, the Crown Princess directly asked someone to send a greeting card, saying that she was coming.
To propose marriage.
Yuan Yongyi was a little surprised, "Why is it that Sister Yuan came here to propose marriage to Xu Yi? Why didn't his parents come?"
The old lady of the Yuan family said calmly: "After checking, Xu Yi is the son of the former mother-in-law. He only contributes but has no status in the family. His parents look down on us martial artists and they have scholars, so they don't agree to this marriage."
Yuan Yongyi's belly was bulging, her face flushed with anger, "What happened to the martial artist? Is this thousands of miles of territory protected by scholars?"
The old lady said with a cold face: "What do you care about them? Ah Si is not marrying them, she is marrying Xu Yi. As long as Xu Yi's side is okay in all aspects, then the matter is settled."
The old lady made the final decision and everyone nodded.
The three royal sisters-in-law appeared at the gate of Yuan's house with Xu Yi, the Grand Prince. Someone was already waiting at the door and welcomed them in like distinguished guests.
When Xu Yi arrived, he was extremely nervous, but when he stepped into the threshold of Yuan's house, came to the main hall, and faced the eyes of all women staring at him, he realized that the nervousness along the way was nothing. His legs were trembling now.
the most stressful moment.
His scalp was numb and his whole body was stiff. He even raised his hands to bow in a mechanical way. There was a buzzing sound in his ears. He subconsciously looked for Ah Si and saw Ah Si hiding behind the old lady, looking half embarrassed and half embarrassed.
It was the expectant eyes that made him feel a little at ease.
But, why is there no man in this room full of people?
The Crown Princess was talking to the old lady, but her eyes still fell on him. From top to bottom, he felt that the old lady could even count every strand of his hair. He didn't know what that look meant.
He didn't dare to ask, he kept his head down the whole time.
This embarrassing moment is really difficult to endure.
The old lady of the Yuan family came close to Yuan Qingling's ear and whispered: "Why do you look like a fool?"
"Young man, you are nervous." Yuan Qingling said with a smile.
The old lady of the Yuan family said oh, looked at it a few more times, and said: "I wonder how martial arts are?"
"You can try it!" Yuan Qingling smiled.
Ah Si's mother said next to her, "Yes, whether you want it or not, you can give it a try. It doesn't cost anything."
It was natural for Xu Yi to try martial arts. Apart from anything else, he had made great progress in martial arts in the past two years, so when he heard about trying martial arts, he immediately raised his proud head like a rooster preparing for battle.
The most highlight moment after entering the mansion.
The group of people arrived in the courtyard and looked at Xu Yi standing with a sword. He was indeed majestic and majestic.
At this time, Xu Yi finally saw his future brother-in-law. They took turns in the battle, trying everything from boxing and kicking to swords, halberds, axes.
Yuan Qingling was a little worried at first, because Xu Yi didn't look very powerful, but he didn't expect that he was so powerful in fighting. He used his fists and kicks naturally, his sword skills were exquisite, and he could even use a long stick very well.
Seeing the satisfied expressions on the faces of the Yuan family, Yuan Qingling's heart slowly dropped.
By the time the call was over, brother Ah Si had already stepped forward to hold Xu Yi's hand, and his brother-in-law was calling out to him.
Xu Yi was surrounded by a crowd of people and turned to look at Yuan Qingling for help. Yuan Qingling smiled encouragingly at him and raised her hand to tell him to go.
Xu Yi was taken into the side hall and the conversation between the men began.
In the main hall, women still dominate.
The old lady of the Yuan family looked at Ah Si and then said something serious, "Have you chosen this person?"
Seeing that no one else was present, Ah Si lost his shy expression, nodded and said cautiously: "Grandma, my granddaughter will marry him."
"You know better than us about your character. This is the person you chose. Even if he is useless today, we will respect your wishes. But no matter what happens in the future, you cannot blame the people in your family. You must bear the consequences of your own choices.
, take responsibility, you know?" the old lady said.
"I know." Ah Si knelt on the ground, "Thank you, grandma, for making it happen."
"Get up." The old lady sighed, her face was happy, but also a little sad. When the children grow up, they will always have to get married. Fortunately, the person they are looking for is not bad, "Also, he
I need to talk to you about things at home. When you get married, you probably don’t have father-in-law and mother-in-law. There are only two of you in the family. You have to make your own decisions about everything. Remember your grandmother’s words, trust and respect each other.
, you can no longer be as arrogant and overbearing as you used to be. He can tolerate you now and thinks that your arrogance and overbearing are cute. But as time goes by, some things will slowly fade away as time goes by and the food, rice, oil and salt wear off the freshness, so you have to consider the feelings of others.
, you can’t be self-centered, you have to make progress, especially this point, progress, you have to make progress, as the days and years go by, you have to have a matching mentality and demeanor, so that you can live this life, you know
?"
"I know!" Ah Si's voice became softer.
Listening to the old lady's words, Yuan Qingling couldn't help but feel that the old lady's words were simple and unpretentious, but they were a magic weapon for a successful relationship between husband and wife. Her wisdom lay in her thorough understanding of the world and her ability to maintain the most peaceful mind despite all the prosperity.
What is the purpose of marrying a daughter? Being rich and powerful is not necessarily good. Being able to support each other for a lifetime is the happiest thing.
The Yuan family solved it so easily. Perhaps as the old lady said, even if Xu Yi performed poorly today, they would still respect Ah Si's wishes and let the two of them get married.
On the other hand, the Xu family's attitude is really ridiculous.
