When the mother-in-law saw Hongyun approaching, she immediately took a step forward with a bright smile, which blessed her body.
"The old slave paid his respects to Madam Hong. When he received Madam Hong's invitation, his eldest lady was very surprised. She even sent the old slave to wait at the door to welcome Madam Hong."
"I don't dare to take it seriously. After all, it's his fault to come here rashly and disturb Mrs. Liu's peace."
Hongyunxi was helping Wenyou to walk on the carriage, and the mother-in-law who greeted her by mistake said a polite word. Before the mother-in-law could speak, a hearty laughter sounded at the door,
"He didn't listen harshly to the words of the sister from the Hong family. During the weekdays, he was at home with nothing to do, so he just hoped that someone would be at the door to keep him quiet. Mingyue suddenly received a message from his old sister, and he was very happy. He immediately
Just let people clean the courtyard, make tea and arrange flowers, and then welcome the distinguished guests at the door. As soon as I free my legs, I will welcome you as soon as possible."
After shutting up, Madam Liu led her eldest granddaughter out of the door and pulled Hongyunxi's leg with a smile.
"Early in the morning, he heard the chirping of magpies and thought something big was going to happen. It turned out that a distinguished guest had arrived."
Listening to Mrs. Liu's hearty laughter, Hong Yunxi couldn't help but sigh. It felt soothing to look at the way they treated guests. Sure enough, the way they treated people was different in different households.
"He came to the door rashly. My old sister Buqiu just doesn't bother him."
Hearing that Hong Yunxi was being polite to her, Madam Liu gave her a look, turned around and rubbed her eldest granddaughter's hair.
"Girl Ling, please come and meet my grandmother from the Hong family. Do you know her well?"
The little girl smiled brightly and saluted to Hongyunxi, "Greetings to the grandmother of the Hong family. He always remembers the grandmother of the Hong family. Are you the kindest grandmother that Ling'er has ever seen?"
"Oh, you are so sweet. Come on, I haven't seen you for almost two years in the blink of an eye. The little girl is becoming more and more charming."
"Don't praise her. She's just a slut. She's been spoiled by him all day long. She's lawless. She looks cute and quiet at that moment, but she's jumping around in the blink of an eye."
"It's better for the little girl to be more lively and lively. With my grandmother taking care of her, we, Sister Ling, will naturally be as comfortable as we want. After all, our grandparents and grandchildren have a deep relationship."
The two of them exchanged a few words and walked into the courtyard with their legs. They looked at the clean and water-swept courtyard. Except for a few sunflowers blooming in the middle garden, there was only a row of bamboos in the corner. The whole courtyard was simple and simple.
Elegant, you can tell at a glance whether the hostess of that house has a cheerful personality.
Entering the hall, the guests and hosts took their seats, and Hongyunxi sent the prepared invitations to them.
"There is a banquet at home. I would like to invite Liu Juren and the eldest lady to show their respect."
"Oh, that's really a happy event, but it's too late for him to be happy. To put it bluntly, don't say that he received the invitation. If he didn't receive it, he would have to follow his master to ask for it.
A glass of wedding wine."
"Then he will wait at home until his elder sister comes."
"It's easy to talk, there's no need to be so polite between us."
Mrs. Liu looked at Hongyunxi's bright smile and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. After thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, that person really didn't know what to do before and after. Her son lived up to his expectations and won the title of No. 1 Scholar in just one imperial examination.
When the number returns, do you really envy others?
When she learned that Mr. Wu Lang of the Hong family had won the title of Number One Scholar appointed by the officials, not to mention the dean, even her husband happily walked around the courtyard several times.
Ever since Wu Langjun entered the academy, he has received all the teachings from the master and deserves to be honored by the number one scholar.
Listening to Mrs. Liu's inner voice, Hongyunxi curled her mouth and drank some water to moisten her throat.
"Actually, he has something to ask for when he comes tomorrow. Please ask my sister for help."
Mrs. Liu was stunned when she heard Hong Yunxi's tone, and nodded with a smile.
"If you let my little sister speak, she won't be able to do what she wants, but it doesn't matter."
"Then he will piss off my old sister first."
Hongyunxi no longer kept it secret, and directly made her purpose clear, with a pleading look in her eyes.
"I'm sorry for bothering my old sister to try to match up the two younger ones. If it doesn't work out, he will definitely prepare a big matchmaking gift for you to thank you for facilitating that good marriage. To be honest, if he wants to break his head, it's Sister Liu.
He is suitable to be the matchmaker. Go and say a few nice words for his Xiaowu in front of the Zhang family's sister, and he will bow to the elder sister first and thank her."
With that said, Hong Yunxi stood up and thanked Mrs. Liu for her blessing, and was immediately supported by someone. After Mrs. Liu was surprised, she immediately raised her head and burst into laughter.
"Haha... Oh my God, Duke Zhuangyuan wants to marry the only daughter of the Zhang family. It's hard to say, but if you think about it seriously, it's really a good marriage. He's accepted the offer and will make peace at the door tomorrow."
Mrs. Liu patted Hongyunxi's leg and clicked her tongue,
"He hasn't been a matchmaker for a long time. If it turns out that he's a talented and beautiful girl, he won't be willing to extrapolate such a blessing."
The two of them walked east again, and Mrs. Liu couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The Zhang family had an only daughter in their lives, and they wished they could hold it in their lap to protect it. If they had not hired Xiaowu, the son-in-law, Sister Shan's son would definitely be born a month later.
But it's easier.
Goro of the Hong family is a calm and reliable person, and there is a master-disciple relationship between the two families. With that kind of relationship, he will not treat Sister Shan badly no matter what. Entrusting his daughter to the Hong family is indeed a good marriage.
Thinking of that, Mrs. Liu slapped her thigh,
"He thinks that the matter is very close. He will ask at the door tomorrow."
Hongyunxi saw how happy she was and was extremely grateful, which proved that she had not chosen the wrong person.
"Then please leave it to Sister Liu. To be honest, before coming to the county, he had never met Zhang's sister. They all said that the family has girls from all over the world. He would like to ask Sister Liu to speak kindly to his little five. Is he really
I really like Sister Shan’s child.”
"It's easy to talk about."
"We are not men. When proposing marriage to a woman, you must show your sincerity. If nothing else, your attitude must be shown first."
When asking for marriage, they have to lower their profile so that the woman can see their sincerity and the woman's parents can trust their daughter to them.
It is said that if a marriage is to go smoothly, both men and women must be well-matched. Their family status has been raised by Xiao Wu. Although their background is not as good as that of the Zhang family, their family will definitely go further in the future. After all,
Xiaowu's talent is there.
After Hong Yunxi drank two cups of tea at Liu's house, she got up and left without leaving any food. Madam Liu looked at her posture and saw that there was something unknown about her, so she slapped her leg.
"Forget it, our No. 1 Scholar wants to be in office in less than a month. We can't delay the marriage. At the very least, we have to make an arrangement for the marriage first. He shouldn't even think about eating. Wouldn't it be better to just go to Zhang's house to have a meal?"
I begged her to tell her that she would have to hurry up and go through the six rites first to wait for the changes.
What I shouldn't say is that if someone else takes advantage of him, the Zhang family will lose a good son-in-law.
