Feeling cold

Mrs. Xu had just opened her mouth to say a few words: "I have already..." About Sister Xiu's marriage, she was interrupted by Grandma Xu: "Our husband and wife have already made an agreement about Sister Xiu's marriage."

Ms. Xu was stunned for a moment. She was used to making the decision on the marriages of the Xu family's nieces and nephews. The previous question was just a question of meaning, just an opening remark. She never thought that Mr. Xu and his wife were already married.

Zhang Cheng. At this time, she was interrupted by Grandma Xu, and a look of astonishment quickly appeared on her face: "What?"

Uncle Xu's expression was a little awkward, but after being bumped on the arm by his wife, Grandma Xu, he still answered bravely: "We and I have arranged a marriage for Sister Xiu. This... I don't need to worry about this for the time being."

." After saying that, I felt that it was a bit rude, so I quickly added, "If the marriage doesn't work out, please ask my aunt to come forward." This is safer.

Grandma Xu glanced at her husband. Although she was a little dissatisfied, she didn't say anything. This was just in case, and she always had to leave a way out for her family.

Mrs. Xu frowned: "Which family is he a descendant of? When did you choose him? Are you discussing marriage?"

When Uncle Xu was about to answer, Grandma Xu said first: "He is also the son of a high-ranking official. I met him accidentally a few days ago. He seems to have some confidence. It's just that we haven't finalized the agreement yet, and we don't dare to publicize it everywhere. Wait.

Once it’s decided, I’ll report it to my aunt.”

Mrs. Xu frowned again. Although not leaking information to outsiders during the marriage negotiation was a rule stipulated by the aristocratic families in the capital, this rule was always only for outsiders, but close relatives were never the ones to be concealed. What’s more,

Not to mention that she is of great significance and has a high status to the Xu family. For the younger generation of the Xu family to go over her to propose marriage to their children and grandchildren, which is already against the convention. What's more, they even hide the object of the marriage proposal from her? Is this what Mrs. Xu is doing?

what the hell?

Mrs. Xu said displeasedly: "What kind of marriage are you talking about? Since I am a high-ranking official, what can I hide from others? I am your closest relative, and I will not reveal the information to the outside at will, which will harm my niece and grandnephew.

Reputation, but you

Tell me the name of that family, and I can also help find out about the temperament and moral character of the other person's children. If it is really a rare good marriage, I can also help negotiate an agreement. With Mrs. Cheng'enhou coming forward, whose high official will be the official?

Will you give me no face?"

Grandma Xu twitched the corners of her lips and said with a dry smile: "Although what I said makes sense, aren't you sick now? How can we bother you to recuperate for the sake of the younger generation? The situation of that family, and us

Naturally, we have already inquired about the character of the son-in-law that the couple is optimistic about, and there is nothing to criticize about it. You can rest assured. After the marriage is agreed upon, we will ask you to come forward to be a matchmaker. Wouldn't it be equally honorable?

"

Grandma Xu has not completely put aside the idea of ​​​​Xu's thick thigh. Sometimes, you have to use what you can use. Even if Xu Xiu is asked to marry as a stepmother, the Xu family's current family background must be worthy of

The legitimate son of the Gui family is also a bit reluctant. When the time comes, he will need Chengenhou Mansion to help Xu Xiu

It’s an exorbitant price. So what if the first wife of the Second Young Master Gui wins the hearts of her husband’s family? Her daughter is outstanding in everything and has the support of good elders. If she gives birth to an heir to the Second Young Master Gui in the future, she is afraid that the whole Gui family will not look at her with admiration.

?No matter how good the deceased spouse is, no one will mention it again in a few years.

Mrs. Xu didn't know what Grandma Xu was thinking. She just felt that her nephew and his wife were being sneaky, and they were probably planning some shady ideas. Otherwise, if it was really a good marriage, wouldn't it be necessary to hide it from her? Wouldn't it be better to tell her?

, let her come forward to negotiate an agreement? Mrs. Xu lowered her face and said: "What kind of marriage do you have in mind for Sister Xiu? If it is just a playboy with a poor family background, or if it is someone else's second wife... you

Don’t think I will agree! Sister Xiu is both talented and beautiful, and she should have a bright future, and there is absolutely no reason for you to ruin her!"

Uncle Xu's eyes flickered. Although the Gui family had a good marriage, first of all, they did not engage in an honorable marriage, and secondly, they did ask Xu Xiu to be someone's stepmother, so he didn't have the guts to make it clear to Mrs. Xu.

He would have to wait until the marriage was agreed upon and had no regrets before he could tell Mrs. Xu the truth. By then, Mrs. Xu would be unable to change the facts, and since the Gui family was indeed a close family, Mrs. Xu could only accept it happily.

But now? The horoscope has not been revealed yet, so of course he can't reveal his secret in front of Mrs. Xu.

So he could only pretend to be aggrieved and said: "My aunt has misunderstood my nephew. After all, Sister Xiu is also my nephew's flesh and blood. How can my nephew push her into the fire pit? How many good people have been chosen for her in the past?

I feel that there are shortcomings. If it were not a really good young talent, the nephew and his wife would not be willing to marry off their daughter. It is really... This marriage is too good. If it doesn't work out, the news will get out, and Xiu will only be disappointed.

My sister's reputation is even worse. My nephew and his wife really don't dare to be careless anymore! My aunt can just rest in peace and recuperate. My nephew will tell you as soon as I have the confidence. When my sister Xiu gets married, she still has to ask her aunt.

I went to watch the ceremony in person. If my nephew has neglected anyone, he will not neglect you either!"

Mrs. Xu was not so easily coaxed by him: "Am I going to leak information casually and ruin Sister Xiu's reputation? You should at least tell me which family it is from?! Since it is a serious family, it is also a high-ranking family.

Why are you afraid of telling people about a good marriage? You are worried that it will not happen, but I can still help the trustee to negotiate a deal! Nowadays, how many families in the capital can not take our Chengen Marquis Mansion seriously?!"

How could Grandma Xu tell the truth? She just laughed: "What I'm afraid of is your enthusiasm. After all, before... you were so concerned about Sister Xiu's marriage and kindly arranged for her to get married, but it spread to others.

, but it’s hard to see Sister Xiu. My nephew and wife are not complaining about you, but I just hope that you can rest in peace and recuperate. Let your nephew and nephew’s wife take care of these trivial matters for the younger generation. How can we say it is also Xiu?

Could my sister’s parents still harm her?”

Mrs. Xu couldn't catch her breath and coughed for a long time. Her face turned pale and her chest felt tight. She could tell that Grandma Xu was actually still blaming her for the Lu family's marriage. But how could that matter?

Is it her fault? She originally wanted to help the Xu family get help from the in-laws of the Lu family. As a result, the Xu family failed to live up to their expectations. Qin Youzhen became stiff again and refused to obey her. In addition, others intervened, and she was stunned.

It made a good marriage known to everyone. Uncle Xu and Aunt Xu made mistakes one after another, which made the matter even bigger. The Xu family caused a lot of gossip, half of which were caused by the couple themselves.

Yes, now it’s all her fault!

Mrs. Xu felt angry and aggrieved. Who was she trying so hard for? Because of Xu Xiu's marriage, even Qin Youzhen broke up with her. The Lu family brothers no longer treated her with the same respect and intimacy as before. Uncle Xu, Uncle Xu

Grandma still wants to blame her. She is not a human being, and no one knows her painstaking efforts. She is so depressed that she wants to vomit blood again.

Mrs. Xu was a little frustrated: "Well, since you have said so, I won't ask any more questions. I hope the one you picked for Sister Xiu is really a good marriage. Wait until the day when the marriage is agreed upon.

, remember to tell me. I don’t care what your husband and wife’s plans are, but I watched Brother Zheng and Sister Xiu grow up, so I can’t really leave them alone. Sister Xiu will get married in the future.

She's a good family, I can support her for a few more years, and tell her in-laws not to underestimate her."

Grandma Xu was looking forward to her words, and said with a smile: "My aunt is so kind to Sister Xiu! We, Sister Xiu, also feel it in our hearts. Don't worry, old man, Sister Xiu is happy with this marriage.

In order to please the mistress of the house, I have been studying at home these days!" Study hard to learn... the various talents of the second grandmother Gui who died young.

Mrs. Xu glanced at her nephew and daughter-in-law, her face looked tired and she was no longer in the mood to hide it. She nodded, casually chatted with Uncle Xu and Grandma Xu, and then closed her eyes.

Hongyan asked Uncle Xu and his wife to leave with a wink, and by the way gave him a gift that Mrs. Xu had prepared for her nephew and daughter-in-law. Mrs. Xu glanced at it a few times, estimated the value of the gift, and waited until she got out of the carriage and got on the carriage.

The husband said: "My aunt is finally willing to calm down. I hope she won't send people to find out in private which family we have chosen. The most important thing in this matter is to keep it secret. Once the news leaks out, what will happen to the Gui family?"

Be alert, maybe the marriage will be ruined! We need to be more careful with my aunt."

Uncle Xu was a little uneasy: "Is this really okay? My aunt seems to be very sad. If I really offend her, if the Gui family's marriage fails in the future, we will have no shame in asking her to marry Sister Xiu.

Besides, even if Sister Xiu successfully marries into the Gui family, there will still be Sister Lan."

Grandma Xu said disapprovingly: "Sister Lan is easy to handle. She is a concubine. Who can't she marry? It's enough if she is of the right family. It's not like those colleagues you made good friends with in the past didn't have concubines in their families. Choose one who went to school.

Scholar, just marry Sister Lan, are you afraid that you will wrong her?"

Uncle Xu disagreed: "Although Sister Lan is a concubine, she has grown up in front of you since she was a child. She is well-born and well-educated, and her temperament has always been very well-behaved and pleasant. It would be too aggrieved to find someone to marry you casually.

.If she can marry into a good family, she will also be able to help Brother Zheng in the future."

Grandma Xu said: "That being the case, it's not difficult. When Sister Xiu marries into the Gui family, with the Gui family's in-laws here, his family can help find young talents casually, and they will be better than our own.

.Are you still afraid that Sister Lan won’t be able to get married?”

Uncle Xu thought about it and felt relieved. But regarding Xu Xiu's marriage, he still couldn't help but think: "Is there really nothing wrong with Sister Xiu? Does she really look like the Second Grandma Gui?"

Will the second young master really appear at the Lantern Festival next year? But there will be so many people at the lantern festival, how can Sister Xiu ensure that she can meet him? Should we inquire privately about the other preferences of the second young master Gui? Brother Zheng went there earlier

I met him, and it was said that we got along well with him. Although he was a bit cold, he was very gentle and polite, and he was very knowledgeable and would have a bright future. I also wanted to meet him in person. He is my future son-in-law at least, but I have never seen him.

, I always feel a little unsure. At the Lantern Festival next year, should I go with Sister Xiu or Brother Zheng..."

Uncle Xu chattered all the way back home, and Mrs. Xu discussed it with him with great interest, as if she had already seen the second son-in-law of Gui becoming their son-in-law and loving their daughter Xu Xiu.
