Most of the Cui Mansion's servants have children at home, and marriage matters are almost done internally. Some parents even discuss it privately and then take the initiative to ask for favors from the master's family. Ye Zhenzhen has promised several marriages, but in person
This is my first time being a matchmaker.
Aunt Cui read the list carefully and couldn't help but nod: "These guys are really good, they can be their own men in the future. By the way, Qiu Wu and Yuxiu around you are not young anymore, do you want to match them too?"
"Of course I'll stick with you, mother, first."
Ye Zhenzhen said: "I don't know Qiu Wu's opinion yet, but Yuxiu has better forget it. She is not a child born in the family, and it is not my responsibility to make the decision on the marriage."
Aunt Cui also understood the temperament of her daughter-in-law, and did not like to force anyone, even to servants who were sold into slavery, so she did not say anything more, took a charcoal pen and circled two people: "These two boys
I want it, and you can arrange the rest."
Ye Zhenzhen took a look and nodded secretly in her heart. These two boys were very compatible with Mo Zhu and Mo Xiang in terms of personalities and abilities. It seemed that Aunt Cui had already made an idea in her mind.
She put the list away and said with a smile: "Mom, I'm not in a hurry here. You can discuss it with Mo Zhu and Mo Xiang first. If they don't like it, then you can choose from the list."
Aunt Cui nodded at her: "I know you are kind-hearted, so I will tell them." She glanced at the list again and said, "If I remember correctly, Zhang San hasn't gotten married yet, right?"
"Nothing."
Ye Zhenzhen felt a little emotional: "From Linxi County to the capital, Zhang San has been with us for five or six years. Over the years, he has devoted himself to his work and devoted himself to his duties. He is an indispensable assistant to me. His marriage has not yet happened.
After all, I neglected a lot."
Aunt Cui explained: "You are busy after all, so it is normal that you cannot cover everything."
Being busy was not an excuse. Ye Zhenzhen deeply reflected on herself. As soon as she returned to Mingxi Garden, she called Qiu Wu to ask: "I have been arranging marriages for the maids in the house these days. Do you have any ideas?"
Qiu Wu didn't have the shyness that a big girl should have at all. Instead, she looked troubled: "Madam, I don't want to get married yet, but my parents have secretly arranged for me to get married. Can you make the decision for me and postpone the marriage for a while?"
Ye Zhenzhen was very surprised. It was said that men should marry when they are young and women should marry when they are young. She rarely saw girls who were of marriageable age but were not in a hurry at all.
"Why don't you want to get married?"
Qiu Wu said matter-of-factly: "After we get married, we not only have to get pregnant and have children, but we also have to serve my parents-in-law. That is a hard job. I might as well stay with you, madam, to serve you. This job is much easier than being a wife."
Qiu Wu's mother has been here all these years. When she returns home from duty, she has to be busy and serve the whole family. She never stops, and the most relaxing time is actually the time when she is on duty.
Qiu Wu saw this from a young age and secretly swore that he would never make the same mistakes as his mother, so he resisted the marriage very much.
Qiu Wu's idea was rebellious at the moment, but after understanding the whole story, Ye Zhenzhen chose to understand that even the ancients had the right to choose not to get married.
But after all, it was the matchmaker's words in ancient times. Ye Zhenzhen did not make full guarantees. She only said: "I will help persuade your parents, but there is no guarantee that they will listen. You'd better talk to them openly and honestly."
talk."
After all, from the parents' point of view, their considerations are correct, and they cannot blindly fight against and violate filial piety.
Qiu Wu accepted the instruction and accepted it honestly.
