Professor Li’s Married Life Chapter 46:
Babies whose subscription ratio is not enough need to wait two more days, I'm really sorry.
Ju Du wondered if he was deaf?
They, a small and poor family, want to marry the Hou Mansion? Could it be that the blue sky and the day are dreaming big dreams?
Don't say that the Li family was overwhelmed by this sentence, even the owner who said this sentence was still shaking in his heart, but his eyes showed uncontrollable ecstasy.
Although I wanted to act indifferently as a scholar, I have already shown signs of my innocence. Fortunately, no one noticed at this time, because everyone was completely immersed in the sentence of getting married to the Hou's mansion, and hadn't reacted yet.
After a little daze, Mrs. Sun, the old lady of Li, woke up first, took a few short breaths, then pounded the table with her palm a few times, and opened her mouth to ask urgently: "My dear grandson, what are you talking about? Say it again, but what am I deaf and hearing wrong?"
Li Cheng was extremely proud, as if he had seen the good life after he became the son-in-law of the Mingde Marquis.
This person is hypocritical, and he always carries it everywhere, even at home, so even when he was extremely excited, he restrained himself and passed the words he had thought up early in the morning on the tip of his tongue. After polishing it up, he spoke slowly.
Of course what he said now is far from the truth.
Li Cheng cut down the general content and only gave a general idea. The general idea is that half a month ago, he and his classmates went to the literary meeting held by the fourth young master of the Mingde Hou Mansion. While playing in the garden, I accidentally stumbled and fell into the lotus pond, and happened to be seen by myself. I was afraid that something would happen to Miss Gu, so I didn't care too much, and directly filled it into the water to save the person.
Fortunately, the lady was fine in the end, so he left.
But just now, the old lady Gu in the Hou's mansion sent someone to find her and called her, saying that she thought of his life-saving feelings, and decided to marry her granddaughter.
After he said these words, the Li family finally understood the reason, sighed a few times, and then went back and forth several times.
Both Sun and Bai are not fools, and they quickly figured out the key point. Although the scene said they were grateful for the life-saving grace, in fact, I'm afraid it wasn't because Ze'er had a physical relationship with the young lady. A banquet is being held, and there may be many pairs of eyes looking at it. The girl's family has lost their innocence, which family is willing to hire a daughter-in-law, so the only way out is to marry a grandson/son.
In the blink of an eye, Mrs. Sun and Mrs. Bai guessed the key point.
Bai's family was shocked, scared and happy, a little at a loss, said she was happy, but she still couldn't believe it, because people like them really climbed into such a prominent family?
But soon they will have no doubts.
Half a month later, the Marquis of Mingde sent a matchmaker to discuss marriage.
Until this moment, the Li family was finally willing to believe that a heart that had been hanging around for a long time finally fell to the ground.
Then, it was ecstasy.
However, within two days of being happy, there were problems. The first one was about the house.
When the matchmaker came to the door for the first time, he mentioned a few words, saying that Miss Hou's mansion hired a family like them, it was too low to marry, and if you put it in a bad way, it would be the same as the emperor's. It's almost like a daughter marrying a street poor man.
"Old lady, don't mention anything else, where will Miss Qianjin live after she gets married to your house?" The matchmaker flicked the handkerchief in her hand, glanced at Sun, and said quickly.
Although Mrs. Bai didn't intervene, she was muttering in her heart, why can't they call where to live, maybe their house doesn't have any vacant rooms? The entire west wing is empty, no matter how precious she is, can she occupy the entire house?
Bai's heart is not courageous, so naturally he only wants to think about these words, but his face shows some indifference and dissatisfaction.
A person who is like a matchmaker, how can he not be old?
What's more, the children in this family look good, but they have misbehavior and used means to ruin Miss Gu Liu's innocence. Now that the whole family looks like this, it's really pitiful for the girls of the Hou Mansion!
He cursed people all over his heart, but he still had a smile on his face, showing a friendly look. She got the second order from the second wife early in the morning, so some things must be done properly.
So she turned her head to look at Mrs. Bai, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Madam has never been to the Hou's Mansion, so it's understandable that they don't know the situation of their wealthy family, what kind of house does the sixth girl of their family live in? Just one girl, her yard is twice as big as your house. The small place of your house is just enough for ordinary people, but look, the one your family is going to marry is a wealthy nest Delicate person who came out, to put it bluntly, your family is really lucky to be able to climb such a noble family!
When the time comes when someone gets married, the dowry alone may not even fit in such a small yard! "The last sentence of the matchmaker does not know whether it is intentional or unintentional.
When Bai heard the first two sentences, his complexion was not very good. He only missed a word about which woman doesn't marry a chicken and follow a chicken, marry a dog and follow a dog. I have never heard of anyone who dares to pick on her husband's family!
Even if you are a young lady of the Hou Mansion, you have to pay attention to the three obediences and the four virtues. When you go out of the door and become a wife, you should strictly abide by the virtues of women, restrain yourself and return to the courtesy, and be meek and skillful.
Furthermore, why can't I live in this house of my own, and no one else wants to live in it!
But after hearing the last sentence of the person, the anger will be extinguished.
Ms. Sun still had a smiling face. You came and I talked a lot to the matchmaker.
Afterwards, he wanted to keep someone for dinner, but he declined because he was busy and left.
When there were no outsiders in the room, Sun's face was lowered. The folds on his forehead were almost unwrinkled into a Sichuan character. The matchmaker meant that this house is not good, and the new wife can't live in the house, and needs to buy a new house .
Although the old lady was unhappy, she knew that she could not afford to offend the Hou family.
The Li family doesn't have such big rules, and this matter was mentioned again during dinner, mainly because Sun and his son Li Baode discussed it.
A new house is easy to say, but how can the Li family afford it? Land and housing prices in central Beijing are very expensive, and good houses are hard to find.
Li Cheng saw it, and was afraid that Mrs. Sun would be confused and offend the Hou Mansion because she couldn't figure it out. After all, the young lady hasn't married yet, so don't hit her head.
So he went to meet the old lady in private again, and said something, all in all, the new house must be bought, he hinted to Mrs Sun, it doesn't matter if you give up a little first, the lady of the Hou's mansion will definitely bring a large dowry .
