Chapter 153 The Good People
Li Wenshan was a new candidate that Tang Chengyi admired very much. When he went back with his wife to talk to Mrs. Huang about this marriage, Mrs. Huang was very satisfied with Li Wenshan. As for the matter of whether a concubine would marry a commoner or not, she would not care about it.
It's just that we must inquire carefully about the family tradition of the third master of the Li family, the character and temperament of everyone in the family, and then we can talk about other things.
Madam Sui also agreed, and sent her confidant to reply to Madam Yan, telling the truth. She had to first inquire about the temperament and character of her family.
Mrs. Yan agreed immediately and waited extremely calmly for Mrs. Huang to inquire. Except for the third son, who was weak and had no eyesight and no backbone, everyone in Xiaosanfang's family was extremely arrogant.
……………………
Mrs. Wan returned home extremely ashamed and angry, and sat there for a long time. After thinking about it, she realized that this was a big matter and she could not hide it from her master. She told her mother-in-law to report it as soon as the master came back.
It was not the twelfth lunar month yet, so Guanglu Temple was not very busy. Guo Zhengqing came back very early. Hearing that his wife had something to do, he went straight into the main courtyard.
Mrs. Wan looked at Guo Zhengqing, her words were stuck in her speech, and she told what happened today in a shy and angry manner. In the middle of the sentence, tears started to fall down.
Guo Zhengqing listened very carefully, asked a few more questions, and sighed several times, "Why didn't you tell me about this marriage?"
"You don't have a single horoscope, what should I tell you?" Mrs. Wan replied guiltily.
"How many times have I told you, Fifth Sister... I know she is a good child, but she... she is different from other children. It's not like you don't know. I have told you a long time ago. The first thing
, don’t think too high, just pick someone who has good duties, as long as he has good duties, we can’t choose anything else; the second thing is, before you talk about getting married, make it clear to others, make it clear.
If you keep a secret about getting married, that is enmity, look at you!"
"Isn't this... a good duty..." Mrs. Wan wanted to argue, but as soon as the words came out of her mouth, she felt guilty and couldn't continue.
"You're not hurting the child by doing this. You're harming the child. Look at it now... forget it, just pick her apart. That's what Fifth Sister is like. She's just a little stupid. There's nothing to be ashamed of."
Guo Zhengqing stopped talking and was silent for a moment, "To be honest, I don't worry about who the fifth sister will marry. Who else will she marry besides us... I have always wanted to tell you, forget it, let the fifth sister follow us.
, From now on, she will follow her elder brother and sister-in-law, and her elder brother and sister-in-law will love her, so forget about getting married."
"How can this be forgotten? The girl's family..." Mrs. Wan burst into tears.
"Oh, don't you think about it. If she does get married, she's afraid... she won't live long." Guo Zhengqing said in a low voice.
Mrs. Wan was stunned for a moment and burst into tears. This is the truth.
Guo Zhengqing watched Mrs. Wan cry for a while, her tears gradually stopped, and then said: "Tomorrow morning, you can prepare a generous gift and go to Yongning Uncle's Mansion to accompany her."
Mrs. Wan's tears came out again. She pressed her tears and lowered her head. "I thought about it. Tell me, what...does this mean to me? I was slapped like this in public and I had to rush to the door to give him a slap."
It’s your second sister who offends others when accompanying others..."
"What kind of person is the second sister? It's been decades and you still don't know? It's because you have a delusional mind. You can't blame others." Guo Zhengqing said seriously.
Mrs. Wan opened her mouth, but no words came out.
……………………
It would be very convenient for the Tang family to inquire about the third bedroom of the Li family.
Li Wenshan's family has lived in Hengshan County for three years, and Tang Jiming is now taking office in Liangzhe Road. He really wants to inquire as much as he wants.
A few days into the twelfth lunar month, the steward who had gone to Liangzhe Road to inquire came back and brought back a book-like letter from Tang Jiming, as well as countless major and minor affairs of the Li family, which were more detailed than Li Wenshan himself knew.
.
As Mrs. Yan calmly did, she found out that Mrs. Xu knew the etiquette of the third house of the Yongning uncle's house. All three children were very good, and she praised them every time. The third master of the Li family did not mention anything else. His duty was to be kind.
He has nothing to say, and he is known to love his children.
Tang Jiming's letter also mentioned many little things about Li Wenshan in the academy and Hangzhou City. At the end of the letter, he said: Uncle Qi has a unique eye. He is also very satisfied with this Li Wulang. If Sister Rui can also take a fancy to him,
Let Mrs. Huang make the decision after careful consideration, and just do it when it's time to do it. There's no need to write letters again and again to let him make the decision.
It was getting dark, so Mrs. Huang still went to Tang Shangshu's house, and asked her to tell Mrs. Yan about the blind date early tomorrow morning.
The three ladies are all straightforward people, so this day was set for the next day, the day before the Laba porridge, which happened to be a traditional day for arranging blind dates.
……………………
Gu Liu rushed into the study outside Prince Qin's mansion, "You know, right? Li Wu is going on a blind date tomorrow!"
The three people who were looking at the map on the wall and didn't know what they were studying all turned to look at him.
Gu Liu waved his hand, his eyes shining with excitement, "Li Wu, we originally agreed that we would go to the Daxiangguo Temple Book Market tomorrow to see if we could pick up some interesting books. A few days before and after Laba, the book market will be open
The most lively.
But just now, the guy sent a boy away, saying that he had something important to do tomorrow and asked me to go shopping by myself. I asked someone to ask him what he wanted, but he said he couldn't tell me, so I went to find him.
This guy still wants to hide it from me! How can I let him hide it? After a few words, I asked him to find out. He is going on a blind date tomorrow at Daxiangguo Temple!"
King Qin looked at Lu Yi. Gu Liu pointed at Lu Yi and shouted, "You must know which girl she is from? Which family is she from?"
Lu Yi couldn't laugh or cry, "How can I know which girl Li Wu went on a blind date with?"
"You just asked him about his blind date and who he was going on a blind date with, but you didn't ask him?" Jin Zhuoyan tilted his gaze at Gu Liu.
Gu Liu spread his hands and said, "It's not that I didn't ask, it's that this guy himself doesn't know. He said that his aunt told him to just look at people and not worry about anything else."
"When is tomorrow?" King Qin asked, walked to the chair next to him and sat down. Lu Yi waved to the servant to come in and make tea.
"It was after noon, on the long corridor where you pick lucky beans next to the Guanyin Hall of Daxiangguo Temple." Gu Liu inquired very clearly.
Lu Yi laughed, "There will definitely be a lot of blind dates on that corridor tomorrow."
That long corridor can be regarded as a scene in the capital, a scene of blind dates.
King Qin laughed and said, "Since there are so many people and Master Yan has arranged it this way, aren't you afraid that Li Wu will fall in love with the wrong person?"
