Evening Shaohua in the Red House

Chapter 124 Chapter 124

Last time when it was mentioned that Li De's family came to ask for grace, Li Wan was startled when he heard the words, and said: "What's the matter, let me tell you."

Li De's family glanced left and right, a little hesitant, Li Wan couldn't help but feel a little puzzled when he saw this, he turned his head and told Dan Ju, "Go down first, I'll talk to your Aunt Li."

Danju agreed, and retreated with everyone together, Fang from Li De's family said: "I'm here to beg grandma today, not for anything else, but to beg for the favor of my incompetent second boy Li Qi, who is now eighteen. , It's time to start a family and start a business. I was always messing around before, and I only said that I wanted to find someone I liked, so I kept procrastinating on this matter. Now it's time to get the hang of it. I heard that the girls around grandma will be released in the future, so now Erte came to beg grandma."

Li Wan understood it as soon as he heard it, and said with a smile: "What is my way? So it's this matter. There are a few girls around my age who are old enough. I don't know which one you want?"

Li De's family said: "It's the embroidered bamboo girl."

Li Wan was a little surprised, frowned and said: "Xiu Zhu's age has indeed come, I originally planned to let her go out next year, but I just listened to you. This marriage was requested by your boy himself, and he has never seen Xiu Zhu before." Bamboo, but why?"

Li De and his wife are both loyal and responsible people, so it is unlikely that they will teach a frivolous person.

Li De's family was a little embarrassed when they heard the words, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's just a coincidence. That day, two boys from our family accompanied me to Sister-in-law Zhen's house for a banquet. My eldest daughter accidentally got lost. Miss Xiuzhu, bring the girl back safely." After that, he told about Li Qi meeting Xiuzhu and secretly helping each other.

Then Li Wan came to a sudden, and said with a smile: "So there is such a thing, no wonder." It is natural for a young man to admire Ai, and there is a fate of a hero saving the beauty in it, so it is no wonder that Li Qishang has his heart.

The companion of Li De's family smiled and said: "Our second boy is eighteen this year. He has learned some boxing skills from his elder brother. Now he is helping to manage the weaving and dyeing workshop in Zhuangshang. He is quite diligent in doing things. He should have started a family long ago. Look at him. There are quite a few people, but he is stubborn, he only said that he wanted to find someone he liked, and this matter has been procrastinating, and now he has become enlightened, and only said that he would not marry a non-embroidered bamboo girl, so I am ashamed of my old face Please grandma."

It turned out that after seeing the embroidered bamboo at the wedding banquet that day, Li Qi couldn't forget it, but he was ashamed and didn't dare to think about it, but when he suddenly heard that everyone was going back to Beijing after autumn, he was shocked, and couldn't bear it after tossing and turning. The mother came to ask for marriage.

Li Dejia's response

Naturally, I am happy to see the results, the embroidered bamboo is good, the behavior is gentle and prudent, and she is knowledgeable about books and etiquette. Things can be talked about in front of the master.

Li Wan was silent after hearing this, and said after a while: "I know what you mean, but this is a lifelong event, and I can't make decisions on my own, I have to ask her what she thinks."

After hearing this, Li De's family hurriedly said: "It's natural. This is our wishful thinking. Naturally, we have to ask Miss Xiuzhu what she means. No matter whether it is successful or not, we are all grateful for grandma's kindness."

Li Wan smiled slightly when he heard the words, and said: "In that case, you go back first. When she comes back, I will ask her what she means, and I will send someone to write back to you tomorrow."

Li De's family agreed to go.

Not long after, Dan Ju came in from the outside, and because there was no one in the house, Li Wan immediately told her about Li De's family's courtship.

Danju couldn't help being taken aback when she heard that, and then suddenly remembered that Xiuzhu had been out of her mind and absent-minded since she came back that day.

But although Danju knew in her heart that it was about Xiuzhu's matter, she didn't talk too much, she just smiled and said: "Grandma just wait for Xiuzhu to come back and ask her, anyway, this is her own lifelong matter, let her make up her own mind That's right."

Not long after, Xiuzhu came back from Jiang's house and looked at the two boxes that Yan Hui returned with Li Wan. One box contained loquats and fresh lychees, the other contained chicken oil rolls and rose flower cakes, and said with a smile, "cousin, grandma!" Said that this is a fresh fruit only obtained in their house, and the dim sum is also freshly made, and asked to bring it to grandma to taste."

While talking, put the plate on the table.

Li Wan picked up a lychee and peeled it to eat. He looked at the embroidered bamboo carefully, and saw that today she was wearing a light yellow satin embroidered bijia, a moon white plain gauze jacket, and a silver red pleated skirt tied with flowers. There is a butterfly flower hairpin inlaid with gold beads in her hair, two peach blossoms on her temples, jade double hoop earrings, and a pair of watery bracelets on her hands. She is soft and delicate, and she can't help nodding her head in admiration. When Xiu Zhu came here, she was just a little girl, but she became so beautiful before she knew it, no wonder the young man couldn't forget it after seeing her.

Xiuzhu was a little confused by her, she couldn't help touching her face, and said with a smile: "What is grandma doing looking at me like this, but what's wrong?"

Li Wan wiped his hands, beckoned her to come forward, and said with a smile: "I see that our embroidered bamboo girl is really beautiful, no wonder she only

After seeing him once, Baba came to the door to beg. "

When Xiuzhu heard the words, she understood a little bit, and she blushed immediately, and said, "What did grandma say? Why don't I understand?"

Danju came in with a tea tray, pursed her lips and said, "I don't understand, it's a fate that fell from the sky."

Li Wan then told about Li De's family's marriage proposal, and said with a smile: "Li De's family has come to ask for marriage, and I can't ignore it. You are back now, just to ask what you mean. If you don't want to, I will send you away." People went to refuse."

Xiu Zhu was stunned when he heard the words, and recalled the scene that day, only to realize that the man was actually the son of Li Guanshi. Surprisingly, he was a little pleasantly surprised, and changed his mind, if he married Li Qi, he might not be able to return to Beijing , Thinking of the death of his own parents, he is not a person who cares much about him, but he is reluctant to part with his master and a few sisters who have made good friends.

Li De is the manager of the farm, and his family is well-off. Li De's family is also common in daily life. It is a generous personality, not the kind of mother-in-law who treats people harshly. The two families are also suitable in terms of status, and they are good relatives, not to mention that boy...

Thinking of this, Xiuzhu blushed even more, lowered her head and twisted her handkerchief without speaking.

Li Wan saw her bow her head shyly and said nothing, she understood in her heart, and said with a smile: "In that case, I will tell Miss Li's family tomorrow."

Early the next morning, Li Wan sent someone to reply to Li De's family. Li Qi was overjoyed, and Li De's family was also very happy. While busy asking the matchmaker to formally come to propose marriage, they started preparing various dowry gifts.

But for a while, everyone in the house knew that Xiuzhu had settled the second son of Li Guanshi's family, and they all came to congratulate him, Xiuzhu was both happy and ashamed, so he just hid in the room and did not go out.

After Mrs. Liu found out, she couldn't help being moved. She had already taken a fancy to Danju, and she wanted to hire her son Liu Shan. She originally planned to talk about it after returning to Beijing, but now that Xiuzhu is engaged Fearing that Danju would be the one who would get ahead of her, she thought about making the marriage arrangements first, and after thinking about it, she found a free time and whispered to Li Wan.

Li Wan was a little surprised, he only said that he had to think about it, and at night he called Dan Ju over to ask her what she meant.

Although Danju was shy, she quickly thought things over clearly. Liu Youfu and his wife deal with each other frequently, they know each other well, and they know their temperament.

He had met Liu Shan a few times in Cuiwei Villa before, and he was considerate, but he would blush when he saw girls, so he was honest and responsible.

The only eldest sister-in-law, Fu Ling, was also a sister who had been on business together, and she had already left the cabinet. Besides, if she married Liu Shan,

I can still help the master in the future, so after thinking about it, I agreed.

But in just a few days, two good things happened, everyone in the whole house was beaming with joy, and not long after, even Daiyu and the others knew about it and sent people to congratulate them.

Soon, Xiuzhu's wedding date was fixed, on the sixth day of August, Danju was not in a hurry, Mrs. Liu had already agreed to wait until she returned to Beijing before getting married.

Li Wan prepared a dowry for the chrysanthemum and embroidered bamboo, a set of gold and jade jewelry for each person, and twelve bolts of silk and satin, all of which were rare items.

The two of them were very grateful. They had served Li Wan for nearly ten years, and Li Wan was always generous and rewarded from time to time. The clothes and hairpin rings they had accumulated were worth hundreds of gold. With the dowry given by Li Wan, this dowry was Ordinary small households are not as good.

After that, the two sisters prepared the dowry while handing over the work at hand.

Fortunately, Suyun Biyue was appointed to take over the two of them before, and she has been teaching them slowly in the past two years, and she has almost learned what should be learned, and it is enough to hand over some books and valuables.

The story is divided into two parts, but it is said that Jialan County's government examinations all won the first place, and in August they went to the Jinling Preparatory Institute for the examination, and lived in the old house of Jia's family. The servants and housekeepers appointed by Shen Yi would take care of everything for daily life and food. Lian and Lin Ruhai's two long-term attendants take care of all the entertainment and communication outside.

The college examination started on August 640th. On this day, there were more than [-] people in the courtyard. Jia Langui sat down and saw that it was not a toilet number. He couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. And just.After careful inspection, I slightly changed a few places and copied the test paper.

The second re-examination also went quite smoothly, but Jia Lan is still young, and has spent a lot of effort in the past six months to pass the test. He had been tense before, but he didn't notice it. Now after the exam, he felt exhausted physically and mentally, and fell asleep. For a day and a night.

Jia Lian was so frightened that he hurriedly invited a doctor for diagnosis and treatment, and he didn't feel relieved until he heard that there was nothing serious.

On the day when the case came out, Jia Lian had sent his servants to wait at the gate of the Gongyuan, but there was no reply for a long time, and he paced back and forth anxiously. Providence.

Just when Jia Lian drank the third cup of tea, the servants who had gone to inquire about the news finally came back: Jia Lan had won the prize and was on the top of the twelve.

Jia Lan had already expected it in advance, although she was happy, she did not lose her composure.

Jia Lian, however, was overjoyed, and immediately offered money rewards. The young servants who reported the letter each rewarded one tael of silver, and the rest each rewarded a sling of money.

Jiangnan Wen

With a flourishing style and a collection of talents, Jia Lan won such a ranking at the young age of ten, which can be called outstanding talent.

Many old friends and old friends with the Jia family have also gained trust, and they are inevitably jealous and envious. It is often said that a gentleman will be killed in the fifth generation. For a family like them, it is lucky that the descendants do not cause trouble. At a young age, he was selected as a scholar and came back.

It's just that no matter how sad the heart is, the congratulatory gifts still have to be given. Some of the families happened to have girls who were about the same age as Jia Lan, so they couldn't help but think about it.

On the one hand, Jia Lian ordered people to send the letter back to Beijing, and on the other hand, he ordered people to prepare the banquet and entertain the guests who came to congratulate him. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to drink tea.

Jia Lan was also dragged by Jia Lian to see the guests, so he couldn't be free for a moment. Fortunately, he was still young and no one made him drink.

After the banquet lasted for more than an hour, Jia Lan was exhausted, so she went back to her room to freshen up, changed into a sky-blue moiré gauze shirt, and took a rest on the couch. Suddenly, Jia Lian's servant, Zhao'er, held the post Back and forth: "Master Zhen's house sent a message, and the second master asked Uncle Xiaolan to have a look."

Since Jia Lan was selected as a scholar, Jia Lian no longer treated him as a child, and would discuss everything with him, and the servants were a little more in awe, and their words were very respectful.

Jia Lan was startled when he heard the words, opened his eyes and said, "Which Zhen family?"

Zhao'er hurriedly said: "It's our family's old relatives, the Zhen's family, the president of the Tiren Institute."

The author has something to say: Sorry for being late, this time the situation is special, I was on duty for four days and four nights, and I only recovered after sleeping at home for a whole day.
