Chapter 1140 Marriage(3/3)

"Mr. Pei, what are the requirements for admission to this Royal Academy?"

"Of course there are. Generally speaking, most of them are outstanding students selected from schools in various places."

"Of course, there are also some quotas for private students who can be recommended by highly respected people to participate in the college entrance examination."

Pei Qian stroked his beard and said, "My Axiu entered the academy after being recommended by Feng Duhu and taking the academy exam."

When Guo Pei saw Pei Qian mentioning Pei Xiu repeatedly, his heart moved and he suddenly asked:

"Remember, your son has almost reached the age of the dancing elephant, right?"

Pei Qian nodded:

"That's right, it's already six months out of ten, and it's time for the dancing elephant."

"It's time to arrange a marriage. Have you ever talked with a matchmaker?"

Pei Qian was startled, hesitated, and then said:

"Although a matchmaker came to my door, I didn't get a good match."

Although Pei Xiu is known as the young leader of Hedong, he is still the concubine of the Pei family.

It's not that no one wants to marry a girl, but the girls who want to marry are either concubines in the clan or daughters of small families, and Pei Qian doesn't like them.

Because the person he wants to marry Pei Xiu is the legitimate daughter of a noble family.

Otherwise, how to improve Pei Xiu's status?

Even if she is not the legitimate daughter of a noble family, her natal family must at least be strong or influential and be able to help Pei Xiu.

Otherwise, how could Pei Xiu take charge of the Pei family and inherit his own title?

Guo Pei naturally didn't know what Pei Qian was thinking. When he heard that Pei Xiu was not married yet, he was overjoyed and said:

"I have a daughter under my knees who is already growing up. My family wants to find a match for her. If Mr. Pei doesn't give up, she can hold the dustpan and broom for your son."

The origin of the Guo family in Taiyuan is even longer than that of the Pei family in Hedong.

The two surnames, one from the north and the other from the south, are both in the west of Taihang, and they have always known each other.

Now that Guo Pei actually mentioned that he wanted to marry his daughter to Pei Xiu, Pei Qian was so shocked that he almost couldn't sit still:

"Is this true?"

"How dare you play with Duke Pei?"

"I don't deserve the title of Duke Pei." Pei Qian stepped forward, took Guo Pei's hand, and laughed loudly, "From today on, you and I are in-laws!"

Half a month later, Wang Chen, who was far away in Taiyuan, learned that Guo Pei had betrothed his daughter to Pei Xiu. He was so angry that he almost opened the case again:

"Guo Jiazi, you said you wanted to discuss it with the clan, but it turned out that you went to Chang'an to find your relatives!"

"My Wang family is also an in-law of your Guo family. Are you going to deceive me like this?"

Guo Pei's brother Guo Huai married Wang Ling's sister, who was also Wang Chen's younger sister.

"It's a pity that my royal family is not prosperous and there is no legitimate daughter suitable for marriage."
