The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

Changxing Hou Mansion.

The flowers in the small courtyard outside the house are in full bloom, and the colorful butterflies are flying. It is a scene full of spring. Inside the house

Ningdong trotted into the house. When he saw Meng Jinyao, he quickly walked up to her, bowed, and then said: "Madam, there is something new with my uncle."

Meng Jinyao was a little sleepy and her head was pounding. When she heard these words, she suddenly woke up and raised her head: "What are they doing?"

Ningdong replied: "I just heard outside that the old lady has found a matchmaker, saying that she is looking for a girl for my uncle. My uncle will marry another wife in the near future."

Meng Jinyao was surprised after hearing this. Her father just divorced a few days ago, and now her grandmother is going to arrange a marriage for her father?

She was sure that this was definitely not what her father meant. As far as her father was so reluctant to part with Aunt Dong, he would definitely not want to marry again so soon. For a long time to come, her father would not be able to let go of Aunt Dong. , under such circumstances, marrying a girl from another family would be a struggle, unless the new wife could have the ability to replace Aunt Dong's position in her father's heart.

Ningdong said: "Madam, if my uncle marries again, it will be the fourth time."

As soon as Gu Jingxi entered the room, he heard the second half of Ningdong's words and asked curiously: "Ayao, who is getting married for the fourth time?"

Meng Jinyao smiled and said, "My father, your father-in-law."

Gu Jingxi looked stunned, even a little unbelievable: "Didn't my father-in-law just get divorced a few days ago? Are you going to get married again so soon?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head helplessly: "I don't think it was my father's intention, but my grandmother's intention. My grandmother is now looking for a matchmaker to find a good girl for him. It is estimated that he will marry a wife within this year, so we should prepare the gifts in advance."

Gu Jingxi was silent. Just a few days after the divorce, he was planning to get married. Is it too fast?

After a while, he signaled the maid to step back, and then asked: "Ayao, what do you think of this matter?"

Meng Jinyao said indifferently: "It's going to rain and my father wants to marry his stepmother. Let him go and let them take their time. In fact, when my father divorced a few days ago, I had already expected that my father would marry again, but I didn't. To think that my grandmother found a matchmaker so quickly.”

Gu Jingxi asked again: "Ayao is not afraid that his father-in-law will marry a woman like Sun again?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head gently: "The second brother has grown up and has our support. Even if my father really marries such a woman, she will not dare to touch the second brother. Then it will not be the second brother who suffers."

She said and laughed out loud: "To be honest, I hope someone to toss them and not make their life too easy. This is much better than them tossing others."

Gu Jingxi nodded: "That's true."

Mrs. Meng felt that since her family had a title and her son was Uncle Yongchang, it would not be difficult to find a good girl for her son to be his wife. After all, she would marry her son, a countess, and I don't know how many good girls would be willing to do so.

However, Mrs. Meng was still overconfident.

The matchmaker followed Mrs. Meng's request to find an unmarried young girl, but it didn't go well.

Mrs. Meng originally thought that her ex-daughter-in-law’s age would be difficult to handle, so she wanted someone younger than her to handle, so she asked for someone who was fifteen or sixteen years old, and who was young enough to have children and give her more grandchildren. Now her son The number of heirs is still a bit thin, with only two sons and two daughters left.

The matchmaker also followed Mrs. Meng's request to find a girl for her. The family background does not need to be high, as long as the family is clean and scholarly, and the father or brother in the family can be a sixth- or seventh-rank official. The girl must be gentle, virtuous, and well-educated. , it had to look good, but in the end I couldn’t find it.

The matchmaker was also in trouble, so she went to the house in person, hoping to get Mrs. Meng to lower her demands.

When Mrs. Meng learned that the matchmaker had come to visit, she thought she had found a good girl, and her depressed mood was instantly relieved. With their family's conditions, wouldn't it be easy to find another good girl? Ms. Dong, on the other hand, is already twenty-six this year and has been married twice. The Dong family is not a wealthy family. It is impossible to marry a better man than her son. It may be difficult for her to even marry. When her son married a new man, Mrs. Dong knew she regretted it.

The matchmaker was led by the maid to Rongfu Hall and met Mrs. Meng. Before she could say anything, she heard Mrs. Meng ask: "Matchmaker Zhang, which family are you looking for a girl from?"

The matchmaker was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses and said hesitantly: "Old madam, I have found many girls for Uncle Meng according to your request, but..." At the end of the sentence, she stopped talking.

Mrs. Meng frowned: "But what?"

The matchmaker considered it carefully and said, "But none of their parents want to marry the girl to Uncle Meng."

Mrs. Meng was stunned after hearing this. Although her son was not a high-ranking official, he had a title and had Marquis Changxing as his son-in-law. What was the difference? There are actually people from low-level families who are unwilling to marry a girl to her son?

She frowned even more tightly: "Why?"

The matchmaker glanced at her and saw that she looked unhappy, but she had to tell the truth, so she bit the bullet and replied truthfully: "They say that Uncle Meng is born with a weak marriage, and no matter who marries him, they will not be able to grow old together."

Mrs. Meng's face darkened and she said angrily: "That's complete nonsense! Who is making such nonsense behind my back to set up my son?"

The matchmaker hurriedly said: "Old madam, please calm down. This is not what I said. It was said by those outside. They said that Uncle Meng married three wives. The first wife died a year after marrying Uncle Meng. The second wife died after marrying Uncle Meng." My wife had been married to Uncle Meng for fifteen years, but she died on the night she was divorced. My third wife divorced Uncle Meng within less than a year of marrying her."

The matchmaker quietly glanced at Mrs. Meng's face and continued: "They said that the reason why Uncle Meng's second wife was able to stay with him for so long was because women with vicious and kind natures don't live long. The daughter of the Dong family who survived still had her children to protect her from the disaster."

After hearing this, Mrs. Meng was furious: "That's nonsense! That's their problem, what does it have to do with my son?"

The matchmaker replied: "Old madam, that's what you said. I also know that it has nothing to do with Uncle Meng, but that's how they spread it, and they don't want to marry their daughter to Uncle Meng."

Mrs. Meng was very angry and could not accept this reality. After all, her son was Uncle Yongchang, and he was a very talented person. Why did people from a small family dislike her son?

The matchmaker felt that it was not easy to earn money from the Meng family, but it was not easy to offend the Meng family, so she asked tentatively: "Old madam, what about Uncle Meng's marriage?"

Mrs. Meng said in a deep voice: "Look, keep looking, I don't believe there is no girl to marry my son."

The matchmaker had a troubled expression on her face: "Old madam, in this situation, it may be difficult to find a girl who is fifteen or sixteen years old and has never been married before. How about you relax your requirements a little?"

Mrs. Meng frowned and looked at her: "How to relax?"

The matchmaker considered it and said: "It will be much easier to find a widowed woman, or a woman who has reconciled, but it is probably a bit difficult to find a young woman, around twenty years old, and a little older, but don't worry, old lady, she will definitely find one." Younger than Uncle Meng."
