Daiyu agreed to find a marriage for Yingchun, and asked Wang Xifeng what she wanted.

Wang Xifeng said: "Left is just what we discussed before. The family name is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that people should be caring. The family is easy to get along with. There is no social interaction. It is best for the second sister to be in the early years. It is best to have some spare money at home. It's all for the second sister to live comfortably."

Daiyu nodded: "Have you ever asked my second sister and grandmother if they agree?"

"I've discussed it with my second sister, and she has no objection," Wang Xifeng said with a smile, "It turns out that my sister was right. The second sister looked at me silently, but she knew it in her heart. She knew that I was doing a lot for her own good. The small shoes and small clothes are given to the big brothers and big sisters, it’s not a problem for her. As for the ancestors..."

Wang Xifeng snorted: "I always marry a daughter from a high family and marry a daughter-in-law from a low family. It's not decent for a daughter to marry a low family. The old ancestor's face is dull, so he is not happy about it. But she can't say anything about this matter, it depends on the big family." I have also thought about what the master means, if the elder does not agree, I will take another 5000 taels of silver as a betrothal gift from the man, as long as there is money, he will never let go."

Daiyu looked at Wang Xifeng in surprise. She didn't know how much money Wang Xifeng had in the past, but she heard that she paid a lot of dowry for the housekeeper. Although she didn't care much, she probably knew the accounts. Wang Xifeng only had about 1 taels in her hand. The previous son had already spent 5000 taels for Yingchun's divorce.

"Second sister-in-law is so generous!"

Wang Xifeng waved his hand: "I used to be said to be stingy, to spend all the money in the frying pan, but in fact, I alone, with at most Lian Er, Ping'er, eldest brother and elder sister, eat it every day. How much money can be spent on delicacies from mountains and seas, wearing silk and satin? Isn’t it all filled into the bottomless pit? But what happened in the end, a good word was never left! Ever since I was pregnant with my brother, the fetal sign was unstable, so I let it go The mess at home, and then look at the faces of the master's servants, how can they look at me? They only wish that I die immediately, so that they will be happy! I have looked at these days with cold eyes, and I understand, some people No matter how nice you are to him, it’s useless, he’ll only pick on you, and don’t remember any good things, so why should I try to treat them? Just be nice to those who have a conscience, and I don’t want anything in return , as long as you say hello to me, your heart will be happy!"

Daiyu smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is right."

Wang Xifeng sighed: "A second younger sister, she knows what's in her heart and is a real younger sister. She can't just ignore it. Ten thousand taels is 1 taels, and she doesn't eat with this money. Besides, there is a shop, and she doesn't earn much. It's hard work, saving her once... It's worth it! The other one is the third sister, she is a good person, thinking of my favor in promoting her in the past, there is nothing good except that the old ancestor is me, seeing the second wife and the second master. It's unreliable, I'll just plan a marriage for her in the future, but she's younger, so she's not in a hurry now."

She said to Daiyu: "Third sister's marriage can't be said, so I have to trouble you."

Daiyu laughed and said, "What's the trouble? Don't worry about it. The third younger sister also has friendship with me, which is exactly what it should be."

The two of them made an agreement, Wang Xifeng said with a smile: "I haven't congratulated my sister on her wedding yet, seeing her radiant face, I think everything is going well?"

Daiyu blushed and nodded: "Everything is fine, the concubine De is kind, and the sisters-in-law are easy to get along with."

As for how her husband treats her, Wang Xifeng had already seen it just now, and couldn't help laughing: "That's good, it's my sister's good luck!"

He couldn't help talking about the two unhappy marriages of Jia's family.

One is Xue Pan. Xue Pan also got married not long ago. The bride came from the Xia family of the imperial merchant, and her name was Xia Jingui. The sweet-scented osmanthus in the local area is called "Xia Family of Osmanthus", all the sweet-scented osmanthus bureaus in and outside the capital belong to her family, and even the bonsai displayed in the palace are also enshrined by her family.

What's even better is that Xia Jingui's father died young, and she was the only daughter. In the future, the Xia family's wealth will be inherited by her grandson, that is, the sons of Xia Jingui and Xue Pan.

Such a beautiful thing can fall on the Xue family, because the Xue family was not only one of the best imperial merchants, but also a family of famous eunuchs with a scholarly family. The ancestors used to be Ziwei's family, and they had relationships with the Jia family and other four kings and eight princes. Intimate, because Mrs. Wang's elder brother, Wang Ziteng, is still a first-rank official in the imperial court, and his family background is slightly higher than that of the Xia family.

The Xue family was very happy when the marriage was settled. They only thought that this daughter-in-law had a generous dowry. Because she had read a lot of poetry and books, she also had a good temperament. Who would have known that this was not the case after marriage. Because Xia Jingui was an only daughter, Being pampered by a widowed mother, she actually developed a domineering temperament, loving herself like a bodhisattva, peeping at others as filthy as dirt, beating and scolding maids and servants frequently, even Aunt Xue and Baochai would not be harassed by her words, Xue Pan used to be a domineering person, but he was disciplined to the point of obedience, which is very powerful.

"It's just that the Xue family's life is not easy. They are noisy all day long, and there is no peaceful day."

Daiyu was surprised when she heard that, she never thought that Xue's family would become what it is today, after being surprised, she smiled and said: "This may not be bad, it would be good if we can control the big brother of Xue's family to avoid a few troubles."

"What?!" Wang Xifeng snorted, "It's fine if she's just domineering and domineering. It's not a good thing, but she is small-minded and vicious. She has only been married for a few days, so Xiangling doesn't like her." , while mentioning the maid around her to be the housekeeper, she taught Xiangling repeatedly, and now even the name "Xiangling" is no longer called, and it has been changed to Qiuling. How many."

Daiyu frowned: "Why is Xiangling involved? She is the most conscientious, and usually only loves to read poems and write lyrics, so why is it getting in the way of her?"

Wang Xifeng said: "That's right! Grandma Xue may not know about it, but she still refuses to let Xiangling go. Such a person will probably become a disaster sooner or later."

Daiyu sighed, although she didn't have much contact with Xiangling, she had a good impression of her. This is a hard-working person, and it's rare to be able to keep her heart. Seeing her suffer is always unbearable, so she said: "If you have the strength, sister-in-law, you might as well take care of her." Some, if... If Xiangling really can't survive, why don't you bring her here, stay with my sister-in-law, or I can arrange to go to Lin's house, just save her life."

This matter is easy to handle, Wang Xifeng agreed immediately.

Having said that, there is a marriage.

Wang Xifeng said, "Baoyu and Baochai are engaged."

Daiyu let out an "oh", but didn't react too much.When she was still living in Jia's house, she often heard about the good fortune of gold and jade. Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue often brought Baoyu and Baochai together, and the servants often talked about Baochai being Baochai's second grandmother.

At that time, she knew that the two families intended to get married, but for some reason it was not settled, but now the dust has settled.

Daiyu was not very interested, but Wang Xifeng was quite interested in sharing: "You don't know, there is another public case here."

This case was originally related to Mrs. Wang.

All along the family members felt that the Xue family and the Jia family had the intention of marrying, but they never thought that Mrs. Wang, with her kind and friendly face, would not have taken a fancy to Baochai.She inquired about several girls from high-ranking and wealthy families in private, but she didn't tell Jia Zheng and Jia's mother that she invited a matchmaker to come to propose marriage!

Aside from Mrs. Wang, she has a good eye for picking her daughter-in-law. It's a pity that Baoyu is very good in her eyes, but she can't get into other people's eyes. Naturally, no one is willing to agree to this marriage. It is good to refuse in a good mood, and even those with a bad temper feel that the marriage they are talking about has insulted their own girl and kicked out the matchmaker.

The matchmaker originally took a large sum of money from Mrs. Wang to help her, and he also despised Mrs. Wang's big-eyed and empty-hearted demeanor. Now that he has been wronged, how can he not talk about it? Here comes the wind.

This is terrible, Mother Jia is fine with it, but Jia Zheng is furious, and quarreled with Mrs. Wang: "I have never seen the second master get angry so much. I am shocked when I hear people say it." Well, in fact, although my wife has passed the time, but the marriage is what you want, we send the matchmaker to the door seriously, and they are not willing to refuse, so what else can they do to us? Just ask people to say a few ugly words , there are too many lice in our house, why worry about it? There is no need to be so angry."

Daiyu also found it strange that Jia Zheng had always been proud of his literati character, and he spoke and acted very high-spirited. She seldom lost his composure.

Wang Xifeng shook his head: "You don't know, the master is only focused on raising Lan'er now, and he doesn't care about Baoyu. I'm afraid it's not because of this."

This is not important, the two just skipped it after being puzzled, and continued to talk about the rest: "After this incident, the second wife became seriously ill again, and she couldn't get out of bed at all, and she couldn't even talk properly. But the old ancestor was still worried, fearing that she would make trouble again, thinking of getting married quickly, and within a few days, he and Baochai changed their horoscope and changed their marriage certificate."

Daiyu asked, "Second Uncle also agrees?"

Wang Xifeng thought for a while and said, "I was not happy at first, but then I agreed to it somehow."

Daiyu sighed: "It's just that this marriage is not a glorious one. I'm afraid Sister Bao will be unhappy."

"I can't see it on a regular basis," Wang Xifeng said with a smile, "You don't care about her, she is the best at handling things, so she can live a good life, but you..."

Speaking of Daiyu, Wang Xifeng slapped his head: "Look at me, I only care about my own happiness, and I forgot that there are people waiting for you! What to do, we have delayed a lot of time, that...will you be angry? ?”

Daiyu smiled and said, "It's okay, sister-in-law is at ease."

Wang Xifeng sighed: "I can't rest assured, that's Lord Baylor, a respectable son and grandson of the dragon. He has always been the only one who waits for him. How can he wait for others? Let's go down quickly."

Daiyu laughed and said, "He has a good temper."

Wang Xifeng nodded at her: "How can these nobles have a real good temper? Even if you are just newly married, you have to be careful. If you offend him, you will be the one to suffer!"

This was a heartfelt remark, although it was not necessary, Daiyu also accepted Wang Xifeng's affection.Thinking that Wang Xifeng wouldn't believe it if she just said nothing happened, and she would have to see it with her own eyes to be at ease, so she just nodded with a smile: "Then let's go down."
