So Sun Sanniang felt that Zhou Chen was much more reliable than Ouyang Xu.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's you, Sanniang, who has good taste."
Zhao Pan'er didn't argue with her because her thoughts were similar to Sun Sanniang's, and she also felt that Zhou Chen was much stronger than Ouyang Xu.
Sun Sanniang pulled Zhao Pan'er into the house gossiping, and asked curiously: "Pan'er, tell me quickly, Lord Zhou has treated you like this, has he ever mentioned marriage to you? He is a Marquis, with a high status.
, shouldn’t he want to take you as my concubine?”
"No, he said he would marry me as his wife and make me the eldest wife of the Marquis, but I didn't agree."
When Sun Sanniang heard this, she immediately became anxious: "Pan'er, have you lost your mind? Madam in charge of the Marquis Mansion, you haven't agreed yet? Are you stupid?"
Zhao Pan'er looked heavy and sighed: "You also know how big the gap is between me and him. I'm just afraid that he will regret it, and I'm afraid that if he marries me, people will gossip behind my back. Although I have also thought about being with him,
But at the same time, I’m also afraid of dragging him down.”
"well."
Sun Sanniang sighed heavily. Only after arriving in the capital did she realize the status gap between people. Zhao Paner's worry was indeed normal.
If a marquis like Zhou Chen, a high-ranking official in the imperial court, marries a woman who once had a lowly status, he may really be gossiped about.
"Pan'er, I don't know how to advise you, but I think Lord Zhou is a man worth trusting for life. If you miss him, you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life."
"Thank you, Sanniang."
Zhao Pan'er knew that Sun Sanniang was really doing her best, and she was very grateful.
"I need to think about it carefully."
…………
"Chen'er, today's banquet is specially held for you. You can interact with others more later."
In the side hall of Zhou Chen's fourth uncle Meng Wei's mansion, Meng Wei said to Zhou Chen with a serious face.
Today, a banquet was held at Meng Wei's mansion, and many nobles from Tokyo were invited to the banquet.
The Xungui Group is a group, just like the civil service group, but the Xungui Group is more united than the civil service group, because most of the Xungui Group is passed down from generation to generation, and there are often marriages within the Xungui Group, so the relationship is naturally better than that from the civil service group.
Civil servants from all over the world are more united.
The Meng family is on the first level of the entire Xungui Group, and the Zhongyong Hou Mansion has also stood on a united front with the Meng family since the marriage of Zhou Chen's parents.
In order to maintain the relationship between nobles and nobles, there are often such banquets, but in the past it was Zhou Chen's father, Mr. Zhou Laohou, who participated, but now, it is Zhou Chen, the head of the family, who participates.
"Uncle, please don't worry, I know what to do."
Zhou Chen is no stranger to communicating with people and building closer relationships. He has lived for so many years and has experienced many such occasions.
What's more, now that he has a very high starting point, he doesn't have to flatter others, he just needs to have a good relationship with them, which is even easier.
And she also has her own ideas. In order to complete the mission in the future, he must lead the army again, and among these nobles, there must be many elites. If he can make friends with them, it will be a big help to him in the future.
Meng Wei sighed: "Your eighth uncle has now gone to the border of Xiazhou to lead troops. With the troops you left behind, it should not be a problem to deal with Xiazhou's troubled army. And you, as for you, happened to be the deputy commander of the Ma Army.
This is equivalent to the two of you swapping places, so neither of you needs to worry about control."
Zhou Chen is now the deputy commander of the Ma Army, and his predecessor happened to be his eighth uncle Meng Cong. After he went to the border, this position became vacant until his period of filial piety was over and the official family handed it over to him.
It can also be seen from this that this official still trusts Xungui.
"Today's banquet is not only a gathering of nobles, but there is also another important reason."
Meng Wei caressed his beard and hair, and said with a smile: "You are already twenty-six this year, and you should have gotten married a long time ago. Before, it was because of filial piety, but now the filial piety period has ended, and you have no elders. Regarding this matter, I am still uncle.
I have to worry about you."
When Zhou Chen heard this, he quickly shook his head: "No, uncle, I don't have any objections to getting married, but I have my own ideas about the person I want to marry."
Meng Wei glared: "What can you think? Your conditions are so good that you are worthy of any woman, but I still think that you should marry the daughter of an honorable noble. This will be good for you, the Zhongyong Hou Mansion, and
They are all the best choices.”
