Chapter 355 ·Marriage

"Isn't my whole life just a hard-working life?" Mrs. Zhang raised her tea cup and took a sip of tea. "When I was at home, I listened to my parents and had to be the best in everything, for fear of embarrassing my elders. When I get married,

, I have to serve the old lady and the master. The old lady’s body has not been peaceful since I walked in. I have a headache today and a stomachache tomorrow. I am either boiling medicine or feeding medicine. I feel that the Zhang family has not just taken a daughter-in-law, but a daughter-in-law.

Found it

I am an old lady with no capital. To be honest, I could not wait until the old lady's funeral. Zili and Yunniang are getting a little older, so I have to take care of them again. When they get old, I will have to worry about this important matter of marriage.

In this life, I am like a top, and I don’t know when I will calm down. I originally thought that when my daughter-in-law comes in, I will enjoy the blessings, but after hearing what you said, I think there will be no hope for a while.

.”

The close mother was amused by her words. She took the tea cup and refilled it with a new cup of tea. "Look at what you said, wouldn't it be better to be busy? Whose life is not like this? It really makes you relax and have a clear mind.

, just afraid of being the first to complain

It’s you. You’re not just here for a while, there’s a lot of things to do later, let me figure it out for you. The eldest young master has a family, and the eldest daughter is almost old enough. Is it time to think about marriage?

Already?"

Mrs. Zhang quickly interrupted her, "Yun Niang is not in a hurry. My husband and I just have a daughter, and we want to keep her for a few more years. If she marries her husband's family and becomes someone else's daughter-in-law, the good life will be over.

I can be as free as at home and do whatever I want!"

My close mother said, "Even if you want to stay, you have to settle the marriage first. Otherwise, in a few years, all the young men of the right age will have suitable partners, and you can still win over the short ones among them."

Ah? Isn’t that a great injustice?

Miss? The eldest lady is as delicate as a flower. You should pay more attention to her marriage. As the saying goes, men are afraid of getting into the wrong profession and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. Important matters related to the eldest lady's life must be polished.

Just keep your eyes peeled and shop around.”

Mrs. Zhang laughed when she heard this, "It's not just shopping, so why are you shopping around?"

"What's the difference between this and shopping?" The personal mother counted for her with her fingers. "Looking, family background, character, everything must be different. When the eldest lady's marriage is settled, the eldest mistress will also be there."

It’s time to have good news. The eldest young master and eldest mistress must be in a hurry as they become parents for the first time. You, the grandma,

How can a mother be left alone? Our Zhang family is not prosperous. If the eldest mistress can have more children, not only will the family be happy, but these children will also help each other in the future. If you don't help take care of the children, who will? So

After all, you are still thinking about taking a break, so I think you should give up this idea as soon as possible."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang let out a long sigh and said, "What you said makes sense. I have a busy life, so I should stop worrying as soon as possible and work hard."

He said this, but his tone was unusually satisfying and happy.

After Li Qi returned to the courtyard from Mrs. Zhang, she still couldn't figure out what she meant for a while.

What does it mean to wait for father to come back?

What will happen if the father comes back?

Li Ying saw that her sister looked worried, so she hurriedly came forward to ask, "What's wrong with you? I just looked around and didn't see you, what were you doing?"

"Going to see Mrs. Zhang." Li Qi replied in a low voice.

Li Ying frowned and said, "What did you see her for? But is there anything you want to trouble Mrs. Zhang? Then you have to remember it clearly and tell your father later. This is all a favor, and we have to make up for the gift.

"

"No!" Li Qi couldn't figure it out, so she simply said to her sister, "I just think Mrs. Tang is a little weird. Even though the two families have a good relationship and travel frequently, she comes to the small courtyard to see us every time, right?

Too attentive? As the saying goes, she is either a traitor or a thief. I always feel like she has other plans. Do you think the Tang family is interested in our business and wants to cooperate in business? I don’t know.

Am I too worried?"

Li Ying breathed a sigh of relief, "That's why." She thought for a moment, "It's not that you are overly concerned about this matter. I had a vague feeling that something was wrong before, but I can't criticize you when I live in someone else's house.

Master, come. Ask Mrs. Zhang what she answered?"

Li Qi said, "Sister, it's true. If she answered, would I still be so troubled? Mrs. Zhang doesn't know what's wrong today. She usually talks quickly, but today she seemed to be trying to play riddles with me. She just said she was waiting for her father.

You will understand when you come back. So

I was just wondering if it was the Tang family who wanted to do business with us, so I had to wait for my father to nod and agree. But after thinking about it carefully, I felt it didn’t seem like it. If that was the case, the Tang family should have asked Mr. Tang to come forward.

Reasonable, how could it be possible for Mrs. Tang to run away from the relationship?"

The man takes charge of the outside world and the woman takes charge of the house. Generally, only the affairs of the house are handled by the woman.

Li Ying's face changed drastically when she heard this, "Mrs. Zhang really said that? Did she personally tell you that you won't know until your father comes back?"

Li Qi was startled by her sister's expression, "Yes, what I heard with my own ears can be wrong? What's wrong with my sister? But what's wrong?"

Li Ying looked at her sister deeply and couldn't help but said, "Among the six sisters in the family, you are the smartest one. Haven't you seen Mrs. Zhang's intention yet?"

Li Qi was asked inexplicably, "What does this have to do with being smart or not?"

Li Ying laughed out loud and reminded her, "Think about it carefully. Mrs. Zhang's enthusiasm... Mrs. Tang came to the door... The young master of the Tang family first delivered something to the inn, and had a pleasant chat with his father...

Later, my father asked the inn clerk about the Tang family's details.

...The young master of the Tang family came to the Zhang family to deliver something again, and he happened to run into you... Mrs. Zhang also said that the truth will be revealed when her father comes back. There are not so many coincidences in the world. It was clearly arranged by Mrs. Zhang on purpose. You

String my words together and you still don’t understand?”

Li Qi followed her sister's words and thought carefully.

Mrs. Zhang...Mrs. Tang...The eldest young master of the Tang family...

She thought of the straight figure she saw that day, with her fair and handsome face shining brightly in the sun.

Her eyes suddenly widened, "Sister..."

Li Ying said with a smile, "A thousand-mile marriage is tied by a thread. I didn't expect that our little sister just went out with her parents, and this lifelong event would be decided."

Li Qi's face turned red when she was told, "This...how is this possible? Besides, Hangzhou is really far away from Xuzhou."

Before, her father's original intention was to keep her at home to recruit a new wife, but later he disliked that the people who were willing to bring him in were either without real talent or learning or had bad conduct, so he gave up the idea completely. However, Mr. Li once mentioned at that time that although he would provide for her in the future,

Send to the end

The eldest daughter is responsible for everything, and he will leave her an extra share as compensation when he divides the family property after his death. However, because he still can't let go of his younger daughter, he plans to marry her to a local in Xuzhou so that he can come and go frequently. What's the matter?

She can also take care of her son nearby.

Li Ying smiled and said, "Plans can't keep up with changes. You know the situation in Xuzhou very well. If there is a suitable family, my father will not be able to let go of any of them. He will definitely arrange the marriages of several sisters here."

That's right. My father is always careful in his work. It's impossible for you to be confused.

If he really thinks the Tang family is good, what does distance mean? Although his father looks careless, he is actually careful. Compared with your lifelong happiness, he would rather

I want to marry you far away, and I hope you can live a smooth life."

"But...but..." Although she was facing her sister, Li Qi was still shy and at a loss when talking about her marriage. She didn't know what to do. "But isn't this too hasty?"

"There is nothing hasty about this. As the saying goes, there is no such store in this village. If you really meet the right family, with my father's resolute character, he will probably make a decision immediately. The reason why he didn't say it clearly is because he is worried about his mother.

I didn’t dare to delay my illness, so I went to Shanghai first, otherwise I would have been diagnosed long ago.

It's settled." Li Ying said with a smile, "Among the six sisters among us, you are the one with the most ideas. Why are you so panicked now? If you think about it carefully, you feel rushed only because of this matter.

It's just that the incident caught you off guard, but maybe Mrs. Zhang had already had this idea."
