Ding Tian's Ancient Life
Chapter 251
Ding Tian was a little embarrassed. After all, he had never used his identity to suppress others, and he was not used to it. In the end, Jin Buhuan made him stand out.
When Matchmaker Wang heard this, she immediately laughed like a sunflower: "That's a good relationship! Let me say, Lord Ding, you are old enough to find a wife, right?"
Ding Tian lied and didn't write drafts: "As a person with a title in the court, my marriage is naturally decided by the emperor. My wife is a countess, who is taller than the imperial lady, and I have to go to the palace to congratulate every year and festival. Those who meet the empress must have etiquette, manners, knowledge, and insight..."
Matchmaker Wang broke into a cold sweat when she heard this: "Such a girl...there is no such thing in the entire Beifeng Mansion...it must be the daughter of a high-ranking official's family."
?,,
"At least an official lady above rank five?" Jin Buhuan speculated.
In the entire Beifeng Mansion, there is only one official of the fifth rank, and that is Du Zhifu. His daughter is only ten years old, not qualified...Needless to say, His Highness King Ning, any of his titles must be above the third rank.
As for the Beichong Mansion, Matchmaker Wang didn't think about it at all. The scope of her mediator's work was only in the city of Beifeng Mansion and the three or five surrounding villages.
Even Baiyun County is not within the scope of her media protection.
"You don't have to worry about my marriage, and you don't have to worry about the Zhang family. Can you go to Ma's house?" Ding Tian asked Matchmaker Wang. "Yes, yes!" Matchmaker Wang said, "You must bring the token of engagement."
"There is also a token of love!" Ding Tian brightened the pair of jade pendants: "At least a thousand taels of silver... Hehehe, this token of love is precious enough, right?"
"Enough! Enough!" Matchmaker Wang was even happier: "This pair of jade pendants is worth a lot of money at first sight! It's a deal... love is stronger than gold."
"
"Gold has a price and jade is priceless." Ding Tian stuffed the jade pendant into Jin Buhuan's arms: "Let's go."
When the three of them went out, they drove a carriage, but Old Zheng saw it. As long as he saw Wang Matchmaker, he would understand what was going on.
"Where can a carriage go?" The old man was unhappy: "To propose a marriage, the bigger the pomp, the more face you will give to the woman, do you understand?
?,,
Matchmaker Wang nodded: "Yes! Yes!"
Ding Tian and Jin Buhuan looked at each other...
Ma's
In the main hall, although Mrs. Zhang Ma was dressed plainly, she did not wear mourning, while the second girl of the Ma family was sitting on the side with a dull expression.
Ma De's face flushed with anger: "The Zhang family is too bullying!"
"It's not the first day you know about their bullying." Madam Zhang was very calm: "I didn't expect Mrs. Zhang to be locked up in the Buddhist hall, and she still has the ability to control things outside, but this is a pharynx in their family. Don't hold your breath!"
"The second sister..." Ma De looked at the second girl of the Ma family.
"I thought that the Zhang family would be less arrogant, and the second sister's marriage would be smoother... But I didn't expect that the Zhang family hated us so much, hehe, it was also the Zhang family's hypocrisy that was torn off, and their reputation is also bad. Now, they can't swallow this anger, so naturally, they have to vent their anger on our family... I only have pity on my second sister..." Madam Zhang frowns: "Second sister is over 20..." "Elder sister, second sister Brother, I won’t marry anymore.” The second girl of the Ma family said: “If the family doesn’t dislike me, I will be an old aunt, and in the future I will take care of the second brother’s children and raise the girl; if the family feels ashamed, I will go to Baiyun Um became a monk... the ancient Buddha of Qingdeng can live a lifetime."
Zhang Yongcheng was also present, and his eyes were red too: "Second aunt, don't worry, there will always be your boudoir at home, and your nephew will take care of your retirement, and put you in mourning..."
Since childhood, Zhang Yongcheng knew that his identities were different, a father who could be a great-grandfather, and a big brother who could be a grandfather... No one in the Zhang family really treated him well, but his father was somewhat sincere, but the same, his father not only had The mother is a woman, and there are several maids, but this is not enough, it is enough to make a widow...
"I don't agree!" Zhang Ma said excitedly: "In order to keep you, I even killed that old boss. How could I allow you to become a nun? I...!"
Ma De also disagreed, and at this moment, the housekeeper ran in: "Master, aunt, second girl, please wait at the door."
...the door.... "
He gasped, pointed outside, his face was sweating with excitement!
Ma De asked him: "What happened at the door? Someone from the Zhang family... bullied the door?"
"No, a matchmaker came to the door... to propose marriage to the second girl!" Steward Ma was the child of a pair of old servants in the Ma family. Now, the old servants have passed away, leaving him in the Ma family, still loyal.
"What?" Zhang Mashi also stood up: "Is it sent by the Zhang family? Want to tell the second girl about the old coffin of seventy or eighty?"
If that's the case, Mrs. Zhang Ma doesn't mind going to Zhang's house to make a fuss once, or a few times.
Anyway, she has no face, no skin, no good reputation, and when she started making a fuss, it was the Zhang family who had no face. This is called "the barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes"!For the sake of his younger brothers and sisters, Zhang Ma felt that he had nothing to sacrifice...
"Anyway, let's talk about it first!" Zhang Yongcheng was more realistic: "Anyway, I am also one of the few elders in the Zhang family. Let me see who dares to act presumptuously in front of me!"
Zhang Yongcheng was able to grow up safely in the Zhang family, and his mind is absolutely extraordinary, otherwise Zhang Mashi alone would not be able to protect him.
"Alright, I'm still the old lady of the Zhang family!" Mrs. Zhang Ma smiled sarcastically: "Master Zhang's mother."
The atmosphere in the hall of the Ma family was not very good. The family went out and saw someone coming at the gate.
I saw the door, and there were two executives holding signs in front of them. One said "Yunqi Weijue" and the other said "Idlers Avoid". The carriage is two circles larger than the ordinary ones, blue-glazed and emerald-covered; there is also a smaller carriage, but a one-horse carriage, and Matchmaker Wang is getting off the carriage.
There are four more majestic and majestic holding flags at the back; eight guards are at the end, all riding horses.
Walking on the street with this posture, no one dares to approach anyway, and this posture is very conspicuous! !
Ding Tian's title of Yunqiwei is equivalent to the fifth rank, which is at the same level as the magistrate.
What's more, official positions cannot be passed on to children and grandchildren, but titles can be passed on, even the simplest titles.
And the things that Ding Tian put on display were exactly what Old Zheng Uncle meant, so it was the first time he put this guard of honor on display, okay?
Matchmaker Wang laughed before saying anything: "Oh! The magpies are crying this early in the morning, and good things are coming!"
"Matchmaker Wang?" Seeing Matchmaker Wang, the Ma family was overjoyed.
We all know that Matchmaker Wang has a good reputation, she never turns black and white, and the coal she keeps is good for married couples. She is a well-known matchmaker in the entire Beifeng Mansion. Back then, the Zhang family wanted to invite her to propose a marriage, but Wang The matchmaker refused!
Later, it was a matchmaker surnamed Zhang who came to propose marriage for the Zhang family, but after she proposed this marriage, the reputation of that matchmaker was notorious, and she died of depression three years later, and the family could not hold their heads up.
The women in the family can no longer engage in the business of matchmaking, because the reputation is too bad.
"Yeah! It's the old woman. Let me tell you, I'm here to propose marriage!" Wang Matchmaker didn't know where the strength came from, and pulled Jin Buhuan over: "Come on! Get to know each other, this is Jin. A, gold doesn’t change, you all know that? It’s Lord Ding’s husband…”
He praised Jin Buchang for a good meal, then turned Jin Buchang around several times like a wooden man, and praised him as "good health, tall among people!" Good health means that he has no problems and is tall among people. Ancient people believed that people who are tall among people, All live long.
"The family has an ancestral house; it has land; it has craftsmanship...." After the introduction, Gui Geng said: "This year, there are seven out of twenty, all because the old people in the family have passed away one after another in the past few years, so the marriage has been delayed, not to mention the past few years. The times are not good, and I haven't been married yet, but now I hear that the Ma family has a good girl, and I sincerely ask to marry her..."
Being a matchmaker means being able to speak. Standing at the door, everyone can hear what she has to say, and what she says is better than what she sings.
"There are also people who propose marriage..." Matchmaker Wang pointed to Ding Tian who was standing behind: "Geez, Lord Ding!"
Ding Tian used it as a prop in embarrassment: "Well, I don't know what to do when you propose a marriage. I listen to Wang Matchmaker. If your family thinks it's good if we don't change husbands... then talk about it? If you think It's not suitable...you can close the door and go back now, and we also..."
As soon as he said this, Zhang Mashi turned around and took his son back to his home next door.
And Ma De bowed his hands with a smile on his face: "The vested nobles come to the door, please come in, please!"
Matchmaker Wang was even happier: "Then let's go!"
With a flick of the embroidered handkerchief in his hand, the strong fragrance spread out, and Ding Tian sneezed several times.
A group of people rushed into the gate, and the people brought by Ding Tian formed a formation at the gate of Ma's house, like standing guard, which is quite awe-inspiring.
Who doesn't know the Ma family?
Especially after the Zhang family settled here, everyone knew about their family.
The second girl of the Ma family is an old girl, and everyone knows what's going on, but now, Matchmaker Wang said at the gate that everyone has heard that someone has come to propose marriage to the second girl of the Ma family.
And it was Jin Jia who proposed marriage, and it was Lord Ding who came to propose marriage from the man.
The neighbor across the door whispered to the neighbor next door: "Two days ago, didn't your family also want to propose marriage to the second girl of the Ma family?
"
"Later, someone from the Zhang family came and said that marriage proposals are not allowed..." The neighbor said, "It's not our family who wants to marry, it's my uncle, and the family's aunt has been gone for almost three years..."
"Is your uncle in his forties?"
"Who says it's not!" The neighbor curled his lips: "The second girl of the Ma family, isn't she in her 20s..."
Some people saw the movement at the door of Ma's house, and wanted to go up to get close, but seeing those people with stern faces, standing guard, holding knife handles... they felt guilty and dared not go up.
After thinking for a long time, he turned his head and hurriedly ran to the Zhang family's ancestral house.
The Zhang family is now keeping their filial piety behind closed doors. After the death of Mrs. Zhang, the Zhang family will be closed for at least three years. No matter which family they belong to, they have to stay at home obediently.
The imperial examination also takes three years.
Master Zhang was rather depressed in the study: "The death of the old man has delayed the children's exams. There will be an autumn session this autumn... If we don't catch up this time, we will have to wait for five years."
The imperial examination is held once every three years, the examination for scholars is three years, the examination for juren is still three years, and the same is true for the examination for Jinshi. Then take the Jinshi examination.
If you fail the exam at one stage, you have to wait another two years.
Because of their filial piety, their family had to wait five years.
"That's something that can't be helped." Mrs. Zhang was holding a bunch of Buddhist beads in her hand, and kept holding the beads: "Fortunately, the woman has left the Zhang family, otherwise it would be even more troublesome."
While talking, the Zhang family uncle hurried in: "Father, mother, Ah San came to report that someone went to Ma's house to propose a marriage."
"
"That little bitch, who can have a good family to propose marriage?" Mrs. Zhang pursed her lips: "Did Zhang Cripple send someone there? I've already had someone tell him that the little bitch will belong to him sooner or later, what's the rush? "
Zhang Laizi is a member of the Zhang family, and his seniority is not high. He can be regarded as an uncle of Master Zhang, right?He's ugly, already 38, hasn't married a wife yet, every day he looks lewdly at big girls and little wives, who are lazy and greedy, who will marry him?Mrs. Zhang took a fancy to this, so she thought of making the second girl of the Ma family into Zhang Laizi's wife.
"Not the cripple."
"That's Wang Mazi?" The corners of Mrs. Zhang's lips curled up slightly: "Is that Mazi impatient?"
When Matchmaker Wang heard this, she immediately laughed like a sunflower: "That's a good relationship! Let me say, Lord Ding, you are old enough to find a wife, right?"
Ding Tian lied and didn't write drafts: "As a person with a title in the court, my marriage is naturally decided by the emperor. My wife is a countess, who is taller than the imperial lady, and I have to go to the palace to congratulate every year and festival.
