Chapter 183. Talking about the matchmaker?
In later generations, the selling point of Jiangnan tourism was this ancient town in Jiangnan. Not to mention, the Mao family's four-bedroom house was still good, facing mountains and backs, with a small mountain bag of Ping'an Mountain in front of him, and behind him was a small river running through the town, with white walls and red tiles, and the furniture and woodwork inside were also exquisite. I guess later generations would have to be the most expensive in residential experience projects.
But when Mao Jue thought that the house belonged to his own family back then, he was now occupied by his relatives for nothing.
"General Xiao Mao, you live there. What do you need to greet your family? What do you want to have fun? The old woman will make it for you!"
"Thank you for your hospitality!"
Barely maintaining his demeanor, Mao Jue waved his hand lazily and sent out this guy like a pug.
Mao Jue didn't know what these people were thinking, just like he was planning a few officials and making some money, but he really looked down on these crooked people. Dongjiang was still in the construction period, and it was still unknown whether he could survive. He didn't want to find a bunch of mice to make holes for him.
Suyi was putting her luggage aside, and Mao Jue threw herself on the bed, looking at the roof with his eyes straight. He stretched his waist first and yawned, then he spoke a little vaguely, rubbing his eyes and said to the girl.
"So tired!"
"Niu, let's go to the grave to worship our ancestors tomorrow, and then we don't care about genealogy or genealogy. We'll leave tomorrow night! How about going back to the north?"
Dongjiang is a war zone or a land of the Li family in Korea. It is full of mountains and is not as prosperous as the south of the Yangtze River. It is crowded with people. However, compared with the intriguing Jiangnan, the northern country is more peaceful than home.
Although it felt fresh when she came out, she became tired after a long time. When she heard that she was home, Suyi was excited to leave the burden at hand. But immediately, her little face became bitter again, and her little hand pointed to the next door, carefully tilting her head.
"Young Master, what are you going to do?"
"Take it back and tell her another marriage! I think it's good to marry my uncle Wen Meng. He is also a big boss, so he needs a family-manager!"
Mao Jue didn't even want to take Qin Niang away, which really made Su Yi even more excited, but then the girl shook her head worriedly.
"Young Master, you should take away Qin Niang!"
“Why?”
"In Songjiang, after all, you have seen all of her! A woman starved to death is a little bit of a loss of fame! She had already died of her husband. If you see her body and don't want her, she will not be able to live!"
Mao Jue just sat up and fell back in a daze. What did I look at her? I saw too many bikini beauties in later generations. If I really calculated this way, he would have solved the big things for his life long ago, and he would have to wait until time travel?
However, I didn't want to argue with Su Yi about this, so I lay down on my arm, and Mao Jue simply responded vaguely.
"Let's talk about this when I go back!"
…………
When Mao Jue was in Taiping Town, he didn't know that there was no debate about him in Hangzhou City.
It's really heartbreaking. People of the same clansman are full of insincere and want to get some benefits from you, but the other family will help you wholeheartedly.
These days, Shen Guangzuo did not see Mao Jue. He was indeed annoyed by Mao Jue's "forced robbery of the people" and "misconduct". But what Mao Jue didn't know was that in order to help him get married, the old man in his sixties and almost seventy years old had actually been running to the Chen family again to help Mao Jue marry the criminal department, or the eldest lady of Chen Zanhua, who is now called Chen Jingshi.
However, Chen Guangzuo still shook his hand in communication with Mao Wen's. Chen Zanhua is not a celebrity in front of the emperor, Wen Tiren, the Grand Secretary of the Emperor. He is also one of the Qingliu of Donglin. However, the court was not very radical and did not undermine Wen Tiren. Everyone lived a safe and stable life, but the core imprint was that Chen Zanhua was still the Donglin Party!
However, this is also a kind-hearted intention. The warrior is more direct. I will follow anyone who is stronger in the court. Chen Guangzuo has been an official all his life, but he knows the doctrine of the mean. Although he looks down on the glory of Wen Tiren of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, his foundation is not solid. His party members are also a leader. Wei Zhongxian is still in glory. He said he was dead and died, but Wen Tiren said he was overwhelmed.
But the Donglin Party is different. Not to mention how noble they are, there is nothing noble in the party struggle. But when things happen, a group of mad dogs in Jiangnan can bite people like a group of mad dogs, and they are still brave and fearless. At the beginning, Wei Zhongxian was also bitten by the seven gentlemen, so he was confused. If a Donglin Party Censor was his grandfather, Mao Jue would undoubtedly be much more stable in Dongjiang. Like Sun Yuanhua, he would dare to swallow his pensions again and let his grandfather go to death.
Poor old man's heart, over the past month, the little things that Mao Jue offered was sent to Chen Guangzuo one by one to Chen Mansion.
"Oh, Mr. Shen, why are you troubled to come to your house again?"
Chen Guangzuo is a famous scholar in Hangzhou, but these days he has really used his old face as a sole. He watched the butler take back the white mink coat in the backyard, and then look at Chen Guangzuo who was sitting in the flower hall and drinking tea with him while smiling. Chen Zanhua, who was also back from the capital, held his fists with helpless face.
"It's not that Chen broke his promise, but that Chen's granddaughter is used to being spoiled. She doesn't want to do it! I have been trying to die for three times, but I can't do anything about it!"
Sitting opposite him, Chen Zanzhong tapped his finger on the table with an unpleasant expression again.
"And this little general Mao is too unsatisfied? He just arrived in Jiangnan, so he forced the girl to rob the people and forced the couple to death! When he arrived in Hangzhou, see what he did? You didn't say that he didn't come to visit you, and he didn't even go home to worship his ancestors. He took a beautiful maid and followed the famous businesswoman around. This kind of character, Mr. Shen, how can I give my granddaughter to him?"
This is completely nonsense before. Nowadays, her parents ordered a matchmaker to say that she had no choice but to do anything, and she tied it up in a sedan chair. The latter is true. The man surnamed Chen obviously regretted it.
However, Chen Guangzuo was very interested in his nephew, and he didn't use his old face at all, so he waved his hands with a smile.
"Are you young and frivolous? Brother Chen, we were ridiculous when we were young, weren't we just slaves? It's no big deal! And I also vented my anger on Jiaoer. He was driven out by Mao Jue when he came to Hangzhou, so he asked him to reflect on it! As for what kind of businesswoman, I also asked him to go. Brother, you don't know that Dongjiang is short of salary!"
"In the battle of Dalinghe, my nephew, Sun Yuanhua, died in battle for several thousand. It was not easy for him to steal the pension money from the court, and Sun Yuanhua, the ordinary man from Denglaidao, to rob him!"
He was full of painstaking thoughts, Chen Guangzuo pointed his fingers and smiled and leaned forward with his old face: "Besides, that kid is also intent. This sable fur robe was made by the kid himself in Liaodong, and he was sewn by the kid, and the old ginseng, which he dug along with, to repair your future grandfather! Brother, look, this marriage has been decided, let this kid come and see? What is he going to do? I personally kick him back to Liaodong. What do you think?"
As he said this, Chen Guangzuo was also a respected and respected old man. He sighed helplessly, and the man surnamed Chen finally let go.
"Didn't your nephew go to Taiping Town to worship his ancestors? That's it! I'll let Jiaoer go to Taiping Town to have a spring trip, and the two old men will follow us to meet each other. If they have the fate, let them get married. What about?"
One month! Even though things were cleared, Chen Guangzuo finally breathed a long sigh of relief, and then he clasped his fists with a red face.
"So, thank you Brother Chen! From now on, our two families will be in-laws! Haha!"
…………
In this era, women are not allowed to show up in public, but it is not that women have no entertainment programs. It is also a fashion to have a few young ladies gather together, recite poems and enjoy flowers and embroidery. Moreover, such gatherings are often mixed with some uninvited guests. The most famous ones are Cui Yingying and Zhang Sheng in "The West Chamber". They are matchmakers several times to provide discounts to this adulterer. There are also talented men from Jiangnan who are also masters who steal jade and fragrance.
The more depressed the society is, the more colorful it is flowing underneath.
Unfortunately, this young lady Chen Jiao’s private life is so rich.
In the evening, in the typical Hangzhou gentry back garden rain pavilion, a petite lady wearing a white dress holding an embroidered basket, staring at the tender buds of the newly-haired lotus root in the pond, and a few small fish wandered around. However, it can be seen that the petite lady seemed absent-minded, her curved eyebrows frowned high, and occasionally sighed.
"Miss, Miss Wu is here!"
Suddenly, the maid's emerald green skirt at the entrance of the garden came out, greeting her with a smile, as if the real emperor had come. The lady of the Chen family woke up immediately and ran to the entrance of the yard in two steps. But to her disappointment, she was jumping in with an embroidered basket like a rabbit. She was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. Suddenly, her little face collapsed again.
"Yue'er, you're really here?"
"Jiao'er, you're so unfaithful, right? I can't do it?"
"No! But today..."
He pouted his little mouth angrily. Before the Miss Chen finished speaking, Wu Yue'er had already pulled her sleeve and ran around in small steps.
Looking at the corner of the wall, she saw that there was no one. She knocked her little fist. After a moment, a similar melody came from the opposite side. Then a white shadow appeared on the wall. After a while, a pretty scholar fell down.
"Brother Wu Qing!"
With an excited cry, Miss Chen directly hugged him fiercely.
It's really a bit like a talented man and beautiful woman. The little girl from Wu family pouted her mouth and went to embroider the flowers. In the pavilion, the mink coat was replaced with a new owner, very gentle. Chen Jiaoer's big cloak was modified on Wu Qing, and she also tied a strap for him with affectionateness. Mao Jue's gift was a small glass mirror with a sleeve. Mr. Wu compared it in front of the mirror in a casual manner, and then smiled in admiration.
"Jiaomei is still careful. She is traveling to Huqiu with Mr. Gandu and others these days. She is feeling a little cold and is preparing to buy a cold clothes. Jiaomei has already made a clever move!"
Without explaining how the coat came about, the lady Chen sighed lonely, lowered her head and sat down to the side and looked at the young master Wu with a surprised face, and then he went to the side.
"What's wrong with Jiaomei? You asked me to come today. Are there any urgent matters?"
"This can be the last afternoon for my concubine to accompany Brother Wu!"
Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and Chen Jiaoer lowered her head sobbing.
"My thought, my ancestors will arrange for me to go to Taiping Town to meet that vulgar martial artist!"
"Oh? For so many days, Lord Chen hasn't rejected Mr. Shen yet?"
He raised a sound of surprise, but when Miss Chen didn't notice it, Wu Qing's eyes narrowed, and a vicious and cruel spirit flashed faintly. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he hugged Chen Jiaoer's shoulder again.
