Chapter seven hundred and forty-ninth marriage proposal
Nowadays, when a marriage is discussed, it is often because the man asks the official media to go to the woman to propose marriage. If a woman likes the man, she will also be more implicit and tactful. It is rare for a woman to take the initiative to propose marriage.
For several days, official media came to Cheng Wang to propose marriage. As Cheng Wang's sister-in-law, Zhao was excited at the beginning, but later she felt a headache.
Those who take the initiative to come to the door were all men who were military generals in the border army. I think they were familiar with Cheng Wang, and they fell in love with Cheng Wang's character, and urged their family to take the initiative to get married, so as not to miss the affectionate and righteous Doctor Cheng.
This made Zhao worry.
One by one, which one should I agree to?
Zhao had no choice but to go to the Duke of Pingguo's Mansion again and wanted to discuss the matter with Cheng Jinrong.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I stepped into Lingyun Pavilion, I saw the grandmother also there.
"Ctually" is that there is a woman who looks like a twenty-six or seven years old next to Mrs. Tai. This woman is quite beautiful, with a dignified expression and elegant dress.
The Grandma said, "Mrs. Cheng happened to come. This is the girl from the side of our He family, and she ranks fifth in the family. Her husband died on the battlefield a few years ago, so she went back to her parents' home and stayed for several years. She never came out to walk around on weekdays. I was so bored these days that I asked Wu Niang to come to the mansion to stay for a few days and talk to me."
"In terms of seniority, Jinrong should also call her a cousin."
"Wu Niang, come to see Mrs. Cheng. This is Jinrong's biological aunt and Jinyi's biological mother."
Zhao: “…”
Zhao was a little confused. Why did a He Wuniang suddenly appear?
Zhao and Cheng Jinrong quickly looked at each other. Cheng Jinrong smiled helplessly and nodded slightly.
That's right, He Wuniang has been living in the Duke of Pingguo's mansion for three days. The grandmother didn't say anything, but she just took He Wuniang to sit for a while every day. It also meant that she could take the opportunity to see him.
It turns out that my uncle is so popular. Even the wife of the Grandma uses the trick of "get the moon first when approaching the water."
Zhao came over and felt a little funny in his heart. He greeted He Wuniang without saying a word.
It is indeed a bit extraordinary that He Wuniang can be selected by the lady. She is gentle and quiet, and does not speak much. After seeing the courtesy, she sat upright.
Zhao looked at him without a trace, then withdrew his gaze and smiled and chatted with the lady.
The lady smiled and said, "You came here specifically to discuss with Jinrong if you have something to do. I will not get in the way of your eyes. I will go around the garden." As she said that, she stood up.
He Wuniang also stood up with her and left with the help of the Grandma's arm.
...
After the grandmother and He Wuniang left, Zhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief and smiled and sighed: "Jinrong, I originally planned to ask the official media to come to the door and ask if there is any suitable one. Your uncle wants to choose a girl from Xinglin family for your father. If you get married in the future, you will be in the same mood as your father and you can talk together."
"I didn't expect that your father's age would have so many families who came to propose marriage on their own initiative. They were all homes of military generals and nobles. I have been thinking about it these days, but I can't eat or sleep."
"It's worrying to not be able to marry a wife. There are too many candidates, which is also a headache! Any one that responds will offend the rest."
"I came here to discuss with you today, but I never thought that the lady brought another He Wuniang. What should I do?"
Cheng Jinrong also smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that things would turn out like this, not to hide it from my aunt. My grandmother didn't say it explicitly, but she just took this cousin to wander in front of me from time to time... Let's not talk about this, how many families have come to propose marriage these days?"
Zhao had a good memory and counted it one by one with his fingers: "There are five families in total. They should be all military generals who are familiar with your father. They wrote a letter to tell their family about this and asked them to take the initiative to get married..."
Well, with He Wuniang, that's six families.
The official media are sloppy and say good words of praise. In the end, what is the appearance, character and temperament, you have to meet each other one or two.
Cheng Jinrong listened carefully and thought silently.
Zhao said for a long time, and his throat was almost smoking. He picked up the teacup at his hand and drank it all: "Anyway, that's it. I didn't respond yet, saying that I would consider it for a while before giving a reply."
"I guess, at most ten days and half a month, there will be another official media coming to ask for the letter. You have to think about it now and then what to do when the time comes."
Cheng Jinrong also had a headache and whispered: "So many people, do you have to look at each other? If there is a rumor, I'm afraid I'll be laughed at."
"If you don't see each other, how should you decide the marriage?" Zhao said helplessly: "You can't just listen to the official media's words! You always have to meet."
Cheng Jinrong nodded in agreement.
Then, the two continued to discuss.
"You don't have to see all these six." Cheng Jinrong thought for a moment and said, "First, as my father said in the letter, those who are too high in the family will refuse politely. Those who are too young will refuse politely."
In this way, three of the six companies can be divided into three companies first. The remaining three companies will be left, and then you will find an opportunity to see them one by one.
Zhao nodded, then smiled and sighed: "Others who have re-entered their ties want to marry girls from wealthy families or young and beautiful girls. Your father is just different from others."
Cheng Jinrong didn't care and said with a smile: "If my father had been a frivolous person, he would have been reunited, and he would not have waited until now. The couple could respect each other, be in line with each other, be considerate of each other, and live a life with one mind. These are more important than rich dowry and family background."
Zhao thought for a while and said with a smile: "After you said this, I think He Wuniang is good. I don't know what her temperament is, but looking at her face, she has a gentle and naughty temper."
Cheng Jinrong smiled helplessly: "My father-in-law must have mentioned this with his grandmother in the letter, so grandmother brought her to me so quickly. As a daughter, I really personally provoked my stepmother for myself."
This was said humorously and interestingly, and Zhao smiled knowingly: "It's nothing wrong with this."
"You can trust your vision, and I can trust it."
"Please be careful with He Wuniang. I will look for an opportunity to meet the other two families in private. I will discuss it with you when I have seen them."
Zhao said, and laughed again: "No matter which marriage you have decided to make, in short, your father's marriage will be settled this year. Now we can prepare slowly."
Cheng Jinrong pursed her lips and smiled.
Yes, it is always a good thing for your own father to be so "hot".
The sun is warm, the spring scenery is gorgeous, and the mood is just right.
