[Red Mansion] Queen's Road

In recent years, the border has been safe and secure, and many families of military generals have already transferred from military to civil.

The Wang family used to be a family of generals.Although Wang Ziteng has become famous in recent years, the younger generation of his family has no reputation.

After listening to Jia Min's words, Lin Ruhai pinched his beard and thought for a while.

"This matter needs a long-term plan. Take our family as an example. Our son is also an only son. I took him out to meet those famous scholars and scholars early on. I wanted to make him famous early, and I watched him study every day. I have to test whether he has learned it at night, because I am afraid that if he does not learn well, he will not make progress. If the Wang family has long-term plans, their children should not be known by now."

"Maybe children are not suitable for reading, they are kind of stupid."

"That's why we need a long-term plan for this matter. You just tell your mother-in-law and her family that our children will not marry early. I will send a letter to the capital and ask my brothers and sisters from the same school to help investigate."

That's all.

After the couple blew out the lights, Jia Min stared at the curtain outside. "I have to worry about her now, and it will be too late a few years later. Otherwise, we should stop looking for those scholars' homes, and just follow what we said a few years ago, and look for people in those generals' homes. As long as it is Good character, good family style, as long as you don't dislike us girls."

Lin Ruhai was a little bit unwilling, "I am such a good girl, I was also brought up with rich clothes and good food since I was a child. If she really married those rough people, she would really be wronged."

"My honey is the other, we don't know what the child thinks. It's all about our girl's usual vigor. I want to find him a man who studies, and when the couple fights, she will definitely kill him Bleeding on the head."

"According to what you said, I found a rough man. Didn't he beat our child until his head bleeds."

"Master, this is why you don't understand. It's not easy for those rough men to marry a fairy-like wife. If they don't treat their daughter-in-law well, then who will live with them? How many people look at the prestige outside Bamian, when you get home, don’t you just stay humble and honest, only those scholars will spend their daughter-in-law’s dowry, and the whole family still looks down on their daughter-in-law.”

"You can't be so absolute. Forget it, let's talk about this matter tomorrow. Let's not talk about it today. The more you talk about it, the more annoying it will be."

However, the result of the couple asking someone to find out was not satisfactory.

"My senior brother wrote in the letter more politely. He said that he went to the Mazhangtai every day, fighting cocks and playing dogs. It can be seen that he is not a good boy who is hardworking and motivated. Look here, it is written here that the Wang family does not allow their daughters to study, saying that women have no talents. It is virtue."

After hearing this, Jia Min immediately objected, "I've never heard of such a rule in their family before. My sister-in-law knows how to read, or else I don't know what the Bodhisattva said after reading Buddhist scriptures. Now this alone is not enough. Our girls I usually like to read some story books and travel notes, and I don’t know how to do needlework, so it’s going to be a lot of trouble when I come to a family like them.”

"Literacy and reading are two different things. Forget it, write a letter to the capital, saying that our children have no fate with Wang's children."

"You can't say this in a letter. I'll send someone to the capital in a few days, and let someone tell it in front of my sister-in-law."

"Since there is nothing suitable for the Wang family, let's look for it here in the south of the Yangtze River. No matter what, we can find a suitable family. I also ask those brothers and fellow disciples to search in other places and introduce us if there is a suitable one."

A few days later, an adult surnamed Zhou and Lin Ruhai discussed their children at the dinner table. The two families happened to have young children of the right age, and they both looked worried. , although they didn't make a decision on the spot, both of them showed emotion, raised their wine glasses and clinked, everything was said without saying anything.

When Lin Ruhai came back, he happily told Jia Min about it. Jia Min felt a bit troubled, "Did you tell others that our girl is a natural child?"

"I haven't said it yet. If it's suitable for us to look at the boy, it's not too late to talk about it. I think Mr. Zhou is an open-minded person. His family shouldn't care about these things."

Jia Min was a bit worried, but she still went out to meet Mrs. Zhou.The two agreed to take the children of the two families to offer incense outside the city together in a few days, and let them take a look at it first.

When Jia Min came back to tell the news, Linlin couldn't believe it. "A blind date before marriage. Besides, how can I get married so early when I'm still young?"

"It's decided that you are not allowed to marry now. It will take a year or two before you get married. We are all respectable people. How can we rush to do things."

"But the book says that the marriage period of the emperor is only one year, that of princes is six months, that of scholar-bureaucrats is three months, and that of ordinary people is one month. Wouldn't two years be too long?"

"What book are you talking about? After the decision is made, will you not be given furniture or dowry? If you marry alone, you can be married away tomorrow. People in Jiangnan pay attention to a little bit of light." It takes three years to make a big bed for my daughter, so the marriage bed is called Qiangongbabu bed."

"Okay, okay, tomorrow I will dress up beautifully and go to see Mrs. Zhou obediently."

Only then did Jia Min return to her room satisfied, and the couple talked in private. Jia Min felt that her daughter had a positive and optimistic attitude towards getting married, and there would be absolutely no trouble tomorrow.

Lin Ruhai was still a little worried, "My eyelids have been twitching all the time, and I don't know if it's bad or good. If she gets into trouble outside, you must keep her safe. What did our child do wrong? Just say a few words outside, if you want to beat and scold her, come home. And this child must not beat and scold her, not only because she is reluctant, but our children can only caress her."

After the two fell asleep with compassion in their arms, the second day came soon.

Linlin dressed herself up beautifully without shame, and happily came to her parents' yard.In my heart, I feel that this blind date will most likely be bad.But you can't say it in advance. If you say it, your parents will think you did it on purpose.

Sure enough, after the two families met, Mrs. Zhou felt that the girl was somewhat round, so she must be a good child.The critical gaze looked from head to toe several times and then nodded to Mrs. Lin.

At this time, Linlin was a little bit unhappy. She was not a piece of pork, and people looked at her, as if she was buying pork. After picking the fat, she had the attitude of "just this piece".

Jia Min also looked at the young master Zhou who was standing on the other side of Mrs. Zhou, he looked really good-looking, but the young master's eyes were very frivolous, he first looked at Linlin, and then put his eyes on Linlin's side On the big maid, she curled her lips at the shriveled figures of the black girl and the white girl.

Jia Min was somewhat displeased.

After sending all these children away, the two middle-aged women discussed the matter further.

"Let me tell you the truth, when I was a child, I spoiled this girl too much. At that time, my feet were bound, and when that girl cried, my heart softened. I still have a pair of natural feet."

Mrs. Zhou frowned, "This is against the rules, all the ladies have their feet bound."

Seeing the attitude of the other party, Jia Min knew that this matter was going to be dirty.But there is no pity in my heart.She didn't answer, Madam Zhou frowned and thought for a while, before euphemistically saying that her son and her natal girl were childhood sweethearts.

This means that someone has already been selected.

Jia Min also agreed on this side, she knew it, and the two broke up unhappy.

Jia Min complained to Lin Ruhai when she got home, "You didn't see that look in his eyes, which was so presumptuous on our girl, I was afraid that our girl couldn't help punching him. Anyway, the young master of the Zhou family is not A good thing."

"Teenagers are like this. They are more curious when they see little girls."

"Then you can't be unruly and stare at other people's girls over and over again. After watching the master and looking at the maids, don't they even have a mother? They still need to look at others."

"Madam's words are rude today. Since Zhou's family is not successful, there are other families. Let's cheer up these days."

Although the husband and wife cheered up and cast nets all over the ground, they didn't catch a single fish.The reason is that Mrs. Zhou has a big mouth, and half of Jiangnan knows that Mrs. Lin's daughter is a gift of heaven.

There are also some wives who politely said to Jia Min, "This place in the south of the Yangtze River pays more attention to this. The further you go to the north, the less you pay attention to it. If you are looking for it here, it is better to ask the north."

The husband and wife go out excitedly every day and come back dejected.Lin Ruhai thought, "Could it be that I, an official, can't marry off my daughter?"

Jia Min thought in his heart, otherwise he would really go to the north to find a military general according to the original plan, and pick one of those good-tempered ones to be his son-in-law.I went back and asked my elder brother to see if there were any suitable ones in the family of my old grandfather's subordinates.

In short, the two have never given up, and are working hard in different directions.Because Jia Min met those soldiers with his father when he was young, he had a good impression of them, and felt that it was a good thing for his daughter to marry into a family of soldiers.

Lin Ruhai has always wanted her daughter to marry a learned talent, even a hermit in the mountains. These people have a relatively noble character. With them, my daughter doesn't have to go out to socialize with others. She only needs to arrange meals and drinks at home. just fine.Coupled with the fact that these people have a wide range of interests, the husband and wife will have something to say, or they will let their daughter down in vain after reading so many books.

The idea is good, but it is very difficult to actually implement it.

First of all, there are many scholars in the world with wretched character, but very few who are truly noble.What's more, the older ones in the army are considered to have made it through, and the younger ones don't know what their future prospects are at all.It is even more difficult to find a man with both civil and military skills. Talents with both civil and military skills are almost all those of the noble family, but when these noble families marry their daughters-in-law, they have more requirements and stricter conditions.

There is a very common phenomenon in it, that is, a daughter-in-law who has been boiled for many years becomes a mother-in-law. With just one word "boil", you can imagine how life is going.
