10. Engagement
Shen was kind-hearted and told Chen Su's guess to her husband. Shen said carefully, "I have a good marriage from the Chen family. I have only been happy for my cousin and have no other intentions. Otherwise, I wouldn't say such disappointing words on the spot. But I thought, A Su's words were reasonable. Women's marriage is no better than anything else. They will always rely on men for the rest of their lives. We are also people with daughters, so it's not a big mistake to be careful."
He Gong was a little embarrassed and said, "This is the marriage that my uncle personally responded to. I heard from my aunt that I know the most. I think I have also inquired about it carefully when I came to my aunt's house."
Shen sighed, "I may not be very good at what I say. I didn't know what kind of family the Ning family was before. My husband must have known it when he often walked around. What kind of family we are, how could we know the foundation with a big family like the Ning family?"
"I'm going to get engaged, but it's really hard to say. You know, my aunt is so cold now. If I open my mouth, my aunt will think a little bit." He comforted his wife, "I thought too much about the appointment. Even if I get married with a wealthy family, I don't want to ask about it. If we don't talk about others, when we Zijin comes to talk about it, I will not be able to marry her if we don't know the three generations of our ancestors."
Shen beat him lightly and smiled, "Where is this?"
He Gong held his wife's fist, "I mean, parents' hearts are the same. Whether they marry a wife or a daughter, there is no place to marry someone without asking for a close look. Just relax, maybe this is the blessing of your cousin's fate."
Shen thought about it and found that Aunt Chen was really not easy to share with, and she didn't want her husband to make things difficult for her, so she stopped talking.
He Gongsu is a soft-hearted person. He told his wife that this matter was difficult to speak, but he still said to me, "Didn't this marriage really be mentioned by Mr. Ning and his uncle?" He Gong is not a fool. Aunt Chen's little cousin was quite meaningful to him before, and he also faintly realized that he could not say good or bad to her cousin Chen. He Gongye thought that the marriage was Little Chen's cousin, but Once when he went to the Shen family, he met Shen. He Gong never forgot about that shocking glance. Later, he learned that the son of the family originally appointed by Shen had died of illness. The marriage between Shen was a little difficult, but He Gong didn't mind and insisted that his mother proposes to propose marriage. He could not resist his son. Although he married Shen, he didn't like him. He felt that Shen's fox seduced her son. Otherwise, how could the son, who had always been filial, not marry Shen?
Now that he heard his son ask about Chen Fang’s marriage, Mrs. He thought about it and sneered, “What, do you regret it? There is no more regret medicine in this world!”
He Gong was embarrassed and said with concern, "Where is my mother saying something, I'm worried. How many times can my cousin marry in his life? It's better to ask carefully. Don't just look at the noble family. After all, my cousin married not from the Ning family, but from the Ning family's son. If you want your son to tell me, you need to ask carefully about the character."
Mrs. He just thought his son was a little careful and sneered, "How do you know that your aunt didn't ask about it? How do you know the benefits of the Ning family? That is the best-class good family in the prefecture. Your aunt has calculated it for your cousin. The immortal chief in Chaoyunguan said that your cousin is a first-class wealthy life. Okay, study more when you have time, don't worry about it. What have you done? Now I'm here again, and I'm asking me to see which eye can I see!"
He Gong really couldn't stand his fucking weird thinking, so he had to give up.
Aunt Chen intended to show off her daughter and had a good marriage, not to mention that the Ning family was really decent, so the engagement ceremony was quite grand. The only pity was that the groom could not come in person because of the incident. The Ning family came to be kind, "The sixth young master served the master in the imperial capital, and he said he wanted to come back. It was a coincidence on the way. When it was delayed, our wife specially asked me to bring me over and said that the girl was wronged."
Aunt Chen looked at the Ning family's thick engagement gift and heard the earnest words from the Ning family. She had long lost her dissatisfaction and only spoke to the Ning family with a smile, "This is no wonder the sixth son, the in-laws are polite."
Since the Chen family was not concerned, the relatives who came to watch the ceremony had only good things. For example, Shen, and so on, they opened their eyes. Seeing the Ning family carrying the betrothal gift into the Chen family, everything was in line with the ancient rituals. Shen was secretly shocked, thinking that everyone in the world was willing to marry a noble family, which was indeed unreasonable.
When having a banquet, it was a rare good meal in Bishui County. He Zijin was particularly satisfied with food. She had already eaten by herself and used it by herself, both spoons and chopsticks. However, the chopsticks were a bit big for her. She used her own small chopsticks at home, but this did not hinder her use skills at all. Many people praised her for saying "This child is so good at eating" and "I can use chopsticks by myself at such a young age". Shen was very humble and unstable, "It's this temper, if you feed her.
She was unhappy." It was the same benefit to take her daughter out for a banquet. As long as she put the dishes she liked into a small bowl, her daughter would eat them herself, and Shen didn't have to worry about it. Shen could fill her stomach, but Mrs. He thought He Zijin was indecent in her meal and glared at Shen several times. Shen thought that she had never heard of her going out to eat the mat and went back hungry. Besides, even if adults had to be restrained, would it be that the child would look at the food without moving his chopsticks?
Shen ignored her mother-in-law's look and saw that her daughter was eating sweetly, she scooped a fish ball for her and touched her daughter's belly. When it bulged, she refused to let her eat it because she was afraid of being overwhelmed.
Shen looked at Mrs. He for nothing, and when he went home, he could not help but listen to Mrs. He said, "Zi Jin is getting bigger every day, and you have to teach her more rules. When we go to the banquet, we can't be like a poor man who has never eaten for eight hundred lives. We only know how to eat. There are so many elders here, and it's really embarrassing that she keeps eating."
Shen didn't say anything, He Gong took my mother's words and smiled, "Mom, how old is Zijin? Such a young child is all a silly person. Where can I know how to talk and socialize?" He hugged his daughter and asked, "Is he full? I'm not full and made a steamed egg for you?"
He Zijin responded loudly, "I'm full!"
He Gong laughed and touched his daughter's round little face. He said to me in the look of a silly father, "Mom, you said, somehow, I was happy when I saw Zijin, and I felt that the children of any family were not as good as our Zijin."
Mrs. He was so angry that he almost choked his son to death. Shen said, "My cousin's engagement ceremony is really grand." This made Mrs. He feel energetic again. However, he was hit by his idiot's son. Mrs. He is getting old again and goes out for a lively day, and is a little tired. He just said a few words, "This lucky person is always blessed if he goes around in circles." He also stopped. This sentence made Mrs. Shen laugh and cry. According to what her mother-in-law said, is she blessed or not to marry into the He family?
Shen is not a bully, but she doesn't want to always be verbally good at Old Madam He. She just smiles but doesn't say anything. Old Madam He sent the family of three to go back to her room to rest.
