Chapter 234 The reason
The old lady thought about it and said, "It turns out that I want to find a son of a civil servant for Shuhui, but your grandfather said that our family is a military general and a civil servant circle, and it is difficult to integrate. It is also a borrowing of family connections. Maybe it is a family of aristocratic families."
"Oh, I understand. Grandpa hopes to unite the power of the aristocratic family in the future in case of emergency. The aristocratic family cannot go too far, and will be isolated if there is any problem.
Another sister who is married into a noble family and suffers grievances in the future will be able to suppress the other party to support her. If she goes to the civil servant's house, it will be completely different. Grandpa can't stretch his hands so long. It is obvious that the distinction between civil and military affairs is not fake. Grandpa is also devoted to his sister's goodness."
Zi Lan understood as soon as she heard this. Grandpa still felt sorry for Shuhui, and all parties thought about it for her.
"You are right. You will still treat her with the aristocratic family and try to choose the best."
"The main reason is that the family style is clean and well-behaved, and the head and successors should have a clear mind. They should not be too greedy for power and wealth, which will easily lead to a deviant path and harm the family.
Another future brother-in-law must pass the character, and he must not be soft or filial. He must have real talents and knowledge. He must pass the character and never be lustful.
Brothers and sisters should also see how their relationship is. Don’t consider whether the family with the eldest son is. Do the mother-in-law understands the rules in the future, what is the character and family style, and whether there are any strange seeds such as her mother-in-law, cousin and niece. She must not consider this kind of strange seeds."
Zi Lan paused with her head tilted, thinking about what she had missed.
The old lady, Shuhui, Zhao Xuaner, the nanny and others were all pursed their lips and couldn't hold back their smiles. The talent show was not as high as hers.
"And there is also, I want to check whether his family owes the debts of the treasury. This is a big deal. If he owes the debts of the treasury, hehe! It will be a big disaster in the future."
"What's wrong with this? Every household will owe some."
The old lady didn't agree.
"Why is it okay? For example, if your slave owes you all the money in his dowry, you are struggling and suggests that you have not paid back the money several times, and you can treat him well and not hold a grudge? Our family will not owe you debts, right?"
Zi Lan suddenly asked with her eyes wide open.
The old lady waved her hand, "I didn't owe much before. In recent years, your grandfather has paid off some of it every year. In the past two years, our family has made a lot of money because of you helping us. Your grandfather has already paid off his debts. Our family does not owe others money.
Your grandfather said that our family makes a lot of money in the capital. If you still owe money from the treasury, it will make the emperor feel uncomfortable. If you pay it back, it will be considered to be a blessing for your children and grandchildren."
After saying that, the old lady woke up and slapped her thighs, "The Mo family owed a lot of treasury silver."
His face turned pale and he thought of what possibility.
"No way."
Zi Lan was also surprised. She actually said something casually as she spoke.
"Really, there is no secret to the aristocratic family. The Mo family was also a first-class aristocratic family in their early years, but after the old man left, he gradually fell down and the emperor began to greet him coldly. I don't know why. Now it seems that it is what you said that the money you owe to the national treasury?"
The old lady felt that she had guessed something.
"It is because of the money owed to the treasury that his family was gradually neglected by the emperor. Lan'er said nothing wrong."
Mr. Yang came back from the palace after playing chess with the emperor, and heard it.
"Grandpa, you are back. We are talking about the candidate for my sister's future husband. The Mo family really owes money to the national treasury, oh! I'm so kind of money."
Zilan joked with a smile.
The old man went into the house to change his clothes and wash his clothes before sitting down. Xuan'er took the initiative to give him a cup of tea and asked, "Grandpa, if you want to say this to my sister, it's not appropriate for the Mo family."
"Yes, I haven't considered the Mo family at all. His family's industry is pretty good, and they can pay it back a little every year, but they insist on not wanting to pay it back, thinking that no one has paid it back, it doesn't matter.
When I paid back the money, I got angry with each family. Only the Lin family and I worked with me every year. We had a lot of difficulties in those years.
But as Lan'er said, I always felt that debt is still a disaster, so I thought that while I was still alive, I would pay back some of it every year, and I could pay it back in about ten years. After all, I didn't owe much.
Later, as soon as the old man of the Mo family left, the Mo family was treated coldly, and I knew that the money should be paid back. At that time, the treasury was very nervous. I went to pay back the money with the Lin family. The emperor looked very excited and took the right move."
When the old man mentioned that past, he was still glad that his decision was so wise and was favored by the emperor. It started with repaying the money until the money was paid, and the emperor trusted him very much.
"If it weren't for Lan'er's mention, I would have forgotten that you were surely trusted by the emperor and were given a heavy responsibility several times, starting from paying back the money."
The old lady slapped her forehead and remembered that it was time to pay for her dowry a few years ago. At that time, the second child was still half a child, which was indeed more difficult.
"Not you know, and I have never said that I used your grandmother's dowry to pay back the treasury in the first three years. It was because of this that the emperor felt that I was loyal and trusted."
Thinking of the hardships of those years, the old man sighed faintly, with a lot of complexity in his eyes. At that time, the emperor hinted that they had paid back the money, but only he and the Lin family decided to pay back the money, and the other families pretended that they had not heard it.
"So there are so many stories here. Then, Sister Huier, you want to choose someone with a clear mind."
"That's natural. Do you still remember the Yu family?"
"Yu Jia, Yu Peiwu."
The old lady thought for a while and said a name.
"Yes, it's him. He's here to pay New Year's greetings during the Chinese New Year. His family has a second son named Yu Han, who is currently also a Blue Leather Guard. I've seen that child several times. He has a very wise manner and is very outstanding in both literary and martial arts. He is also ranked among the top three among the noble families."
"Why do you think of him? His family is not close to our family, but I know that his family is very powerful, old-fashioned first-class and top-notch families, with many capable people, and their family style is extremely rigorous and upright. In the family of military generals, his family rarely has family rules. Children do not allow them to take concubines and have sex with concubines, so they are very strict with their children."
The old lady smiled when she heard this. She was a good person, and she couldn't say it before. Her background was deeper than herself.
"Yu Peiwu took the initiative to ask me if Shuhui was engaged, and said that she wanted to say something for his son."
The old man also had a smile of relief and satisfaction in his eyebrows. This is the family he wanted to tell his granddaughter, what is the Mohist family?
"Guard Lanling, my cousin must know you. Come back and question me strictly."
Zi Lan nodded vigorously and made an expression of clenching her fists.
Everyone burst into laughter, and Shuhui blushed when she laughed.
"What did you say if you want this?"
"It is said that it is a guest in two days."
Mr. Yang smiled.
