[Red Mansion] Third Sister You's New Life in the Red Mansion

"Aunt Zheng, calm down!" The official matchmaker hurriedly distinguished, "If the Zheng family hadn't nodded, and the official pleaded repeatedly, how could I have the courage to come to your door? So that my aunt can learn that your mother's family has entrusted me We, the long history of Yingtian Mansion, asked me to persuade you to remarry, and it is also for your livelihood for the rest of your life!"

Seeing that Mrs. Zheng still had a resentful expression on her face, and seemed unmoved, the official matchmaker sighed, and said again: "In the end, your natal family is thinking about you, isn't it because you are afraid that you will lose your husband and have no children, and you will have no one to rely on in the future? Besides, the official surnamed You mentioned here is also a serious scientific researcher, and he is the prime minister of Si Nong Temple in the Southern Household Department. He is a sixth-rank official. Forbidden, it's just that both of them died early, so they don't have the good fortune to enjoy it!"

"Desire?" Mrs. Zheng seemed to hear something extraordinary, and her heart couldn't help but move.It's just because this edict is really a face to a woman, it can prove that her husband or son has a successful official career, and at the same time can get the favor of the holy family.This is what a successful man should look like, able to seal his wife and children and benefit his family.No matter who it is, this is a great glory and dignity.But this thing is not something that everyone can have. For example, Xiu Zongzhao, even if he was an official to the fourth rank, because he has no holy family, he never earned it for her.

Seeing that Mrs. Zheng seemed a little moved, the official matchmaker went on to say, "What about this official, the housewife has been away for several years. With his official rank, does he marry anyone else? Some people advised him to remarry, but he always refused to remarry on the grounds that he could not delay other young girls. It can be seen that this man's character is excellent."

The official matchmaker smiled again, and lowered his voice, "To be honest, there is of course another reason. This official met you once in Yangzhou that day, and was overwhelmed by your demeanor the moment he saw it, but Of course I dare not make mistakes. But after he found out that you are a widow, he took it to heart. No, the two gifts I brought today were prepared by him and entrusted to me to bring to my wife, as a token of appreciation Sincerely. He invited me, the official media, to show that he is very cautious about this matter, and everything is based on your wishes."

Speaking of this, the official matchmaker sighed enviously, "Grandma Zheng, I'm not bragging. I've seen too many men. It's really rare to see someone as meticulous and sincere as an official. You will marry me immediately I won't say anything about the imperial order; I have seen this official before. He has a handsome appearance, and he is really a good match for your wife. Such a marriage made in heaven, if you look for it elsewhere, there will be no other. .”

Seeing that Mrs. Zheng was stunned and did not speak, she smiled again, and said softly, "If my wife is determined to keep the festival, let me pretend that I didn't say these words. Wutong treats each other when they grow old, and both mandarin ducks will die. Losing their beloved, they are as young as a lady." Beautiful, what's the point of staying in this world alone and desolate? The lady is guarding the two daughters now, but she doesn't think that when the two girls are married? How many unfilial sons are there? Is the son-in-law not successful?"

This official matchmaker really knows how to speak, and every sentence seems to speak from Zheng's heart, making it impossible for her to refute.Have you thought about celebrating the death of your husband?It doesn't seem to be, it's just a resentful couple, even if he is dead, it is considered polite if she doesn't curse him once a day; the rest of his life is miserable?This seems to be a conceivable thing, but doesn't she still have a shop and land to work on?

Seemingly seeing through what Zheng was thinking, the official matchmaker said in a soft voice, "If my lady is alone in the future, without relying on, without relying on, even if it is a million-dollar family fortune, I am afraid that there will be a day when people will plan to clean up. In this world, how difficult it is for a woman to live alone!"

Seeing that Mrs. Zheng lowered her head pensively, she followed her persuasion, "Lady, this is a good saying, a house full of children is not as good as a half-way couple, you have to think twice!" while presenting the two gift boxes held by the servant , "If my lady still has doubts, look at these two things, and you will know his sincerity."

Seeing that the official matchmaker was about to open the box, Mrs. Zheng became a little nervous, and immediately pressed it with her backhand, "Wait a minute, lady!"

"This matter is too sudden, let me think about it again; there is another saying, marrying Congzi again, although I have no sons, I have two daughters, I, I have to ask them what they mean first..." Mrs. Zheng bit her lip , a little flustered and authentic.

Since her husband passed away, accidents happened one after another, without giving her a chance to breathe, she was at a loss as to what to do.

What's more, today, this is a major event related to the rest of her life, and she really wants someone to give her advice or just give her an opinion.But Jinling is far away from her natal Yangzhou, and she doesn’t even have her handkerchief handy, and Jinling is only where her husband is an official, and she has no relatives. Who can she tell her uneasiness and anxieties to?

"Oh, Aunt Zheng, if you have a son, you should ask about it; but you are two sisters, right? Let me put it bluntly. My daughter is going to marry sooner or later. Can she take care of her parents' affairs? What’s more, women follow their fathers and mothers at home, and the master is gone, they naturally listen to you, how can you listen to them?”

"People in this world say that a child without a mother is like weeds on the edge of the field, without shelter and shelter; but in my opinion, a child without a father is like a fallen leaf on a tree, without roots and source; The two sisters have to find someone to rely on anyway, otherwise, what's the point of a family of women? Besides, the lady is still young, and if she goes to the official's house, if she has a few more men and women, then it's not the same as the two sisters. Is it your son's reliance?"

When Zheng married Xiu Zongzhao before, it was naturally arranged by her parents. She married blindly and never met a matchmaker; thing.But she didn't know that this official matchmaker was able to talk about dead trees sprouting, iron trees blooming, nuns Sifan, old hens matching ducks, and how many well-established and famous families have suffered under their hands, not to mention What about an inexperienced boudoir like Zheng?

After talking for a long time, the official matchmaker changed the name of Zheng, "Good girl, listen to me, you are really a match made in heaven, the official said, if he met you when he was young, you must start all over again." But it's not too late now, you still have decades to live! Look, this pair of jasper bracelets, the water head is very good, right? This is his family's ancestral treasure, not passed on to his daughter-in-law Girl; this box of snails can only be used by the ladies who are favored in the palace, and only those who are close to the royal family can get a little reward. This official is born to be able to do it. Please let me bring it to you. Don't look at this little A box is hard to buy! Sister, your eyebrows are already very good, if you draw on this Luo Zidai again, it will be truly generous and extravagant, and it will look different!"

"This, this is not very good." After all, Mrs. Zheng did not come from a poor family, she would not be dazzled by these two things, but her heart was already in a mess, "Sister Gan, I have to help you. It's just that I thought, this matter has to be discussed in the long term. You should take this thing back first and return it to the official, I, I can't take it for now."

"Why is that?" the official matchmaker snorted, "My dear girl, you obviously listened to what I said, so you don't worry about it. That's all right, let's make an appointment for an hour, and when the time is right, the official will come to the door in person. How about you take a look at each other?"

Zheng was taken aback, "No, this is not appropriate."

The official matchmaker smiled, "Lady, the official came here, naturally I will accompany him, and it is definitely not private. Besides, the first marriage is from the relatives, and the second marriage is from the body. This matter is all on the lady's mind. The principle of putting the beak, whether it is successful or not, the lady will wait and see. I think tomorrow will be a good day, so it is settled. I will come with the official tomorrow, and you can just dress up and wait, huh? Then he stood up, "I've said everything I need to say, I'll leave today, and I have to go to the house of Mr. You!"

"Hey!" Mrs. Zheng hurriedly chased after her, "But..."

"Okay, okay, that's it, don't send it away, just wait for my good news!" The official matchmaker giggled, and quickly went downstairs.

Zheng's heart fluttered and he didn't know what to do for a while.After a long while, she returned to the house in a daze, and saw her eldest daughter, Xiuxiu, standing at the door of the room, looking at her timidly.

"Where did you die? Why didn't you hear me just now?" Zheng Shi felt guilty and started to strike first.

"Daughter... my daughter is taking a nap, and my daughter hasn't heard anything!" Xiuxiu stammered, there is no silver 300 taels here.

"Come here!" Zheng yelled, and sat down on the pier. After thinking about it, she changed her tone again, "Come and sit here."

After a while, she asked again in a low voice, "Sister Xiu, it seems that you have heard everything. Tell me, what should I do?"

"Daughter, my daughter doesn't know anything..." Xiuxiu was about to cry, "My younger sister is always a person with ideas, mother, why don't mother ask my younger sister?"

"You are not allowed to tell her!" Zheng immediately looked at her with wide eyes.

"Yes, my daughter will never say a word." Su Xiu was startled, and looked at her mother, "But tomorrow..." Isn't that person going to come here tomorrow?

"It's very annoying, don't look at me!" Zheng rested his forehead with his hand, "I don't know what to do...how about thinking of a way tomorrow and get your sister away first?"

Before the words fell, I heard Xuan Ying's crisp voice outside, "Mother, I'm back!"

Both the mother and daughter were taken aback, Qiqi stood up, and as soon as Xiuying entered the door, seeing the two standing like this, she couldn't help being a little surprised, "What's wrong?"

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay!" The mother and daughter said in unison.Glancing at each other, the two sat down awkwardly.

Never hide anything from me!Xu Ying was surprised, but she could only pretend that nothing had happened, "Mother, I didn't expect that there are so many things to pay attention to when buying a house. Today Zhou Feng took me to see several houses, but I was not very satisfied. According to him Come on, it's either the layout is bad, or the feng shui is bad, or the owner in front is frustrated. If he didn't check it, I bought it in a daze, and it's too late to regret it; they say that the car and boat shop is innocent. He deserves to be killed, I don't know how he treats others, but he has no second thoughts towards our family!"

"It's a good feeling," Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said to Xuanying, "Since you haven't looked at it today, you should go out to look at it tomorrow, and you must look at a few more places. After the house is bought, it needs to be cleaned and repaired. We have to choose an auspicious day to move in, and there are many things to pay attention to! If we move in earlier, we can save one day's expenses. Last year, the income of the shop didn't improve much, so we can just live, we have to save everything."

Xiu Ying replied yes, and Zheng asked again, "Where is Mama Lu's family? Why didn't you come back with you?"

Xiu Ying said, "Mother Lu went to the farm tonight, and said that she would give her family's old Zhou head, and Zhou Cheng's clothes and shoes. Zhou Cheng has grown so fast this year that he can't even wear shoes. She Let me take a leave with my mother, and I will be back tomorrow. They sent me downstairs before leaving. Zhou Feng took Zhou Cheng back to the place where he worked, and came back early tomorrow morning, and we continued to look at the house. "

"Very good. I'll go after breakfast tomorrow and see a few more places. Don't rush to come back. It's just hard work for me." Mrs. Zheng said a rare polite sentence.

Su Ying became more and more sure of her judgment.

Zheng's arrogant and domineering temperament, when has he ever been polite to his sons and daughters?

Tomorrow, let's see!
