After becoming a widow, I became the mother of seven children

Seeing that Yan Qingqing did not agree immediately, Matchmaker Xie did not dare to urge her.

Although Han Xiucai's conditions are good, his future prospects are unlimited. But Yan Qingqing is indeed a fifth-rank official now, and there are many officials who will never reach the fifth rank in their lives.

Moreover, Yan Qingqing's eldest son is now an eighth-grade agricultural officer, and I heard that there is a young master studying in the family.

In terms of money, the current Li family is one of the best in Chengyang County, so Han Xiucai is a high achiever in every aspect.

But she is a matchmaker, so she can only try to make peace between the two sides.

Yan Qingqing thought for a while and said: "Marriage is not a trivial matter. This matter is related to my daughter's life, and I certainly cannot take it lightly.

I have to ask Xin Niang about this before I give Xie Bingren an answer.

Besides, my Xin Niang is still young, so I don’t plan to let her get married so early. "

Xie Matchmaker heard this and said quickly: "You can let the eldest girl and Han Xiucai make an engagement first, and we can discuss the marriage later."

After thanking the matchmaker, she felt that her words were a little too eager, and added: "Of course, this matter must be agreed by the person and the eldest girl."

Yan Qingqing nodded and said: "In that case, wait until I ask Xin Niang what she means. You can go back first."

After Xie Matchmaker heard Yan Qingqing's words, she quickly stood up and said goodbye. Mrs. Xu got up and went to see her off.

Yan Qingqing is also thinking about this matter. In terms of conditions, the Han family is definitely not comparable to his own family.

But it is precisely because of this that Xin Niang will not suffer any disadvantages when she marries.

However, she opposed blind marriage. Even if she was satisfied, she would have to ask Xin Niang what she meant.

What Yan Qingqing didn't know was that Li Xinniang already knew about this.

Her personal maid Rumei came to deliver something to Yan Qingqing, and happened to see Mr. Xu coming to the door with Matchmaker Xie.

So I listened quietly.

When he learned that he was here to propose marriage to Li Xinniang, he hurried back to report it.

Rumei thought that Li Xinniang would be happy when she heard the news, but she turned out to be pale and biting her lips, looking unwilling.

Rumei was startled and asked quickly: "Girl, what's wrong with you? But something doesn't feel right."

Li Xinniang shook her head. Seeing that she had nothing to do, Rumei continued to talk about what she overheard about the Han family.

But another figure flashed through Li Xinniang's mind.

With his elegant and handsome appearance, he took care of her everywhere and came to see her from time to time.

But he hasn't been here for a long time, maybe he's just being sentimental.

Thinking of this, Li Xinniang felt irritable.

Yan Qingqing, the Xu family came back here.

After seeing Yan Qingqing, she didn't mince words and asked directly: "Second sister-in-law, is there anything dissatisfied with the Han family?"

Yan Qingqing smiled and said: "What's the point of dissatisfaction? I just feel that this important matter of marriage is not something to be trifled with. This is a major event in Xin Niang's life, and the children must be willing to do it."

And we have never seen Han Xiucai before, so we have to do some research first on his appearance and character. "

Mrs. Xu laughed when she heard this and said: "Oh, my second sister-in-law is still open-minded. It's nothing like when we got married. I've never seen her before.

I only know how to obey the name of my parents and the advice of my matchmaker. Not afraid of the second sister-in-law’s jokes. It wasn’t until the night of the wedding that I saw San Niu’s appearance clearly. "

When Yan Qingqing heard what she said, she immediately joked: "What did you think of Third Brother at that time? Did he fascinate you?"

Mrs. Xu cheered and said: "Just like San Niu, who was dark and thin at the time, and could only smile when he looked at me. My heart suddenly went cold, and I was afraid that I was marrying a fool."

After saying this, the two sisters burst into laughter.

Far away in the Wu family in the capital, Wu Jingzhi looked at Mrs. Wu lying on the bed pretending to be sick, and said helplessly: "Mom, what do you want?"

When Mrs. Wu heard his question, she pretended to be weak and said: "I don't know if I can see you get married and have children in my lifetime. If I can, I will die without regrets."

Wu Jingzhi felt very helpless. If his mother hadn't used this trick to trick him into returning to the capital, his wife might have already caught her.

Because he could obviously feel that Li Xinniang had begun to have a crush on him.

At that time, when he received the news that Mrs. Wu was critically ill, he had no time to go to the Li family to say goodbye, so he rode back to the capital.

Although he specifically asked shopkeeper Wu to go to Li's house and quietly tell Li Xinniang about his return to Beijing.

But what Wu Jingzhi didn't know was that Shopkeeper Wu went there twice and didn't even see Li Xinniang.

In addition, Yan Qingqing was already a fifth-grade Ming Zhaoren, so Shopkeeper Wu did not dare to blatantly make Yan Qingqing angry.

Seeing that Wu Jingzhi was distracted, Mrs. Wu started to cry again and said: "Sure enough, my son is too old to help his mother. I'd better die of illness."

Wu Jingzhi sighed and said: "Okay, mother, please stop pretending. You are not sick at all. Just tell me which girl you have fallen in love with this time?"

Mrs. Wu then sat up and said coquettishly: "It's your aunt's cousin Chan Niang.

Your cousin is already [-] this year. She is a very clear sign of success. My mother likes her very much when she sees her.

Moreover, your cousin is also interested in you. Your aunt has mentioned it to me twice in a subtle way. We are men and we must take the initiative.

Son, how about we pick a good day to propose marriage.

If it really doesn't work, today will work. Today is also a good day. The bride-maid is ready. "

After saying that, he was about to pull Wu Jingzhi away. Wu Jingzhi reluctantly shook off Mrs. Wu's hand and said, "Mom, I only have a brother-sister relationship with Cousin Chan, not a man or a woman.

How could I marry her? Besides, I already have the girl I like. "

Mrs. Wu was happy and worried at the same time after hearing this. What she was happy about was that her son finally understood and found someone he liked.

What worries her is how she will explain to her sister and how to explain to Chan Niang.

She gave her mother and daughter a guarantee, but now Wu Jingzhi actually doesn't want to marry them.

But her son has someone he likes, and she is one step closer to having a grandson.

Mrs. Wu felt a lot better when she thought of this, and then began to ask about Wu Jingzhi's specific situation.

Wu Jingzhi mentioned that Li Xinniang's eyes were full of tenderness.

In his eyes, Li Xinniang was not only gentle, but also resolute. He was even more fascinated by the way she talked with the merchants.

Mrs. Wu's face became darker and darker the more she heard this, because the Wu family didn't know yet that Yan Qingqing had been conscripted.

Mrs. Wu interrupted Wu Jingzhi: "My mother does not agree with this marriage!"

Wu Jingzhi was a little shocked, and then asked: "Why?"

Mrs. Wu said: "The family status does not match, how can the Li family be worthy of our Wu family.

What's more, her mother is still a widow, and there are always many disputes in front of widows.

What if there are some bad rumors that affect our Wu family's reputation in the future? "

Wu Jingzhi frowned when he heard this, obviously disapproving of Mrs. Wu's words.
