Xie Yuncang turned over the papers on the desk in his hand, his voice was calm, and he still couldn't hear any emotion.
Xie Songhua then moved forward a little further, "My daughter knows that dad doesn't want any of us to marry into the royal family, so why not make arrangements for us to get married first?
The second sister has been engaged and will be leaving the court soon. We have also been ranked in the order. The provincial examination has just passed. My father might as well choose two young candidates with good character, good knowledge and average family backgrounds to betroth us to them. He just said that he has waited.
We will formally discuss marriage in spring."
When she said these words, Xie Yuncang couldn't help but stop the movements of his hands. He raised his eyes and looked at Xie Songhua for a while before saying: "Are you willing to marry an ordinary person?"
From a princess to an ordinary person, the difference is not even enough to describe.
Even if Xie Yuncang knew that Xie Songhua had no intention of marrying a dragon or a phoenix, as the legitimate daughter of the Xie family, it was her duty to marry a wealthy family, so she was willing to make such a sacrifice?
However, Xie Songhua's answer was extremely sincere, "Why not? If a person can pass the exam before he is weak, it at least shows that this person is smart and willing to study hard. He is already better than most people in the world. Why don't I want to?"
This is not nonsense. Under such an imperial examination system, anyone who can be elected at a young age will definitely not be an ordinary person. At least Xie Songhua thinks that with her brain, there is a high probability that she cannot do it.
She is now the daughter of Mr. Xie Ge. Her grandfather was once the emperor's teacher, one of her uncles is one of the most respected gentlemen in the capital, and one of her uncles is also a serious court official. Her brother has already won the imperial examination and is about to become an official in the court.
With her current status, if she married a man with an ordinary family background, not only would she be able to walk away from home after marriage, at least her husband's family would not dare to bully her.
Isn't this much better than marrying into the royal family and being involved in all kinds of power struggles?
Xie Yuncang threw down the book in his hand, stood up from behind the desk, looked down at her with his hands behind his back, and after a while he said: "Get up!"
However, Xie Yuncang did not give an answer as to whether Xie Songhua's proposal should be adopted or whether it is feasible.
Instead, Yu Ruzhuo asked, "How did you come up with such a way?"
Xie Songhua sent Dingxiang back and simply sat alone in the pavilion on the bridge. "Isn't this the best way now? The Xie family doesn't want to get involved in the dispute, but I am being targeted again. There are some things in Beijing."
Who dares to marry me from a high-ranking family? Wouldn't that directly offend the Queen and Concubine Gao?"
Yu Ruzhuo said, "Then you will marry with your eyes closed like this?"
Xie Songhua raised his eyebrows and said with some confusion: "What do you mean by marrying with your eyes closed? Didn't I also mention the conditions? At least you must not be old, you must have good knowledge, and your character must be upright. Isn't this a choice?
"
"But..." Yu Ruzhuo was speechless for a moment, and then said after a while, "But you have no idea what kind of person your father will choose for you. Do you think that as long as he chooses according to this standard, you will agree?"
?”
Xie Songhua said of course: "This is natural."
"You, you don't care?"
Xie Songhua squinted his eyes and looked at the water in the distance. He raised his hand to block the blowing wind. After a while, he said calmly: "I don't care. If you meet the conditions I put forward, you will be a good person."
After she finished speaking, she chuckled, "Everyone in this world has different pursuits. For example, Xie Shuhua, for example, pursues status and honor. She wants to be a princess.
There are also people who pursue wealth, such as the eldest aunt, who complains all day long that he does not use his fame to recruit students.
There are also people who pursue a life-long pairing, such as the third uncle and the third aunt. The couple plays the piano and plays the piano in harmony.
As for me..."
She paused and seemed to think for a while, "I just want someone who is stable. If he has a good character, he at least has a moral bottom line, so he shouldn't be difficult to get along with; if he has good knowledge, he also has certain abilities. Just rely on him
, I can probably make a living; my family is from an ordinary background, so if I marry with my status, there is a high probability that their family will think highly of me, and such a life is already very good."
After she finished speaking, seeing that Yu Ruzhuo hadn't answered for a long time, she couldn't help but laugh at herself: "Do you think I'm worthless?"
"Um."
Xie Songhua just laughed. That was because Yu Ruzhuo, including the Xie family members, were accustomed to living a life of masters, but she was not. She was a very ordinary soul from another world.
The life of ordinary people is the life she is most accustomed to.
"You just said that your third uncle and third aunt want to be together for the rest of their lives. Do you disagree with that?"
Unexpectedly, Yu Ruzhuo would ask such a question. Xie Songhua was stunned for a moment, and then smiled helplessly: "How low is the probability of this? Not to mention that this marriage must be ordered by the parents and the matchmaker, and there is no way to meet before the marriage.
How can the unwavering love come from the above two sides?
Even if you are lucky enough to meet the right man, who among these wealthy men doesn't have two people in their house? These men don't seem to have one or two concubines, and they are too embarrassed to call themselves rich families.
Similar.
For example, my third uncle, I heard that he had two wives before marriage, but after my third aunt got married, he took the initiative to send her away. Just like that, I don’t know how many women in the boudoir envied me!"
"You are making jealous remarks."
Hearing his words, Xie Songhua rolled his eyes unceremoniously, "This is because you have too high demands on women in this era. In fact, you are just doing cooperation in the name of marriage, asking women
He takes care of the housework, is filial to his parents-in-law, and raises his children, but in name, this partner still has to be his wife.
What's even more helpless is that most women in this world can't see clearly this lie. They really love each other as their husbands, so they give their feelings to each other. And then when they can't accept other women because of this feeling, the men turn away and slap her on the back.
Jealousy's hat turns out to be the woman's fault."
"You think it's unfair?"
This is simply a funny question. Xie Songhua said without hesitation, "Of course it's not fair. It's fair to say it's fair. We still get married as usual. The man is the master of the house and the man is the master of the house. The man can take concubines and raise the house, and the woman can also support her."
It's more like recruiting a young boy face to face."
"you……"
Yu Ruzhuo was obviously shocked by her remarks and was speechless for a moment.
Xie Songhua couldn't help but laugh, "It's impossible, right? Don't say you think it's impossible, I think so too. So, do you know where the correct solution is?"
The smile on her face was a little ironic, but also a little wanton, and there was a happy look between her eyebrows and eyes.
Yu Ruzhuo's tone suddenly calmed down again, "I would like to hear the details."
"That's business, don't get involved in emotions. A woman's right should be to live in another institution. The man is responsible for making money to support the family, while the woman takes care of the internal affairs. As for concubines and not concubines..."
She paused, her eyes showing a bit of confusion.
After a while, he sighed: "As long as the family's financial support and the court's laws allow it, what's wrong? It saves you the effort and energy to serve others."
In such an era, expecting a marriage based on love is simply a false proposition. In this case, it is better to be sensible and change the way of thinking. There is nothing difficult to accept.
But in this matter, she is a soul of future generations here, and she still feels disappointed after all.
Yu Ruzhuo was probably shocked by her idea and remained silent for a long time without speaking.
It wasn't until Xie Songhua stood up and planned to go back that he chuckled and said, "I'm afraid your idea will come to nothing."
