057 Monthly Pass for Marriage Follow-up)
Seeing the thorn in Shi Zhongkui's words, he didn't refuse.
Yu Honggao thought that the Xue family seemed to have no other shortcomings except the loss of his father and the fact that the eldest son Xue Pan was generous.
In addition, since Shi Zhongkui and Xue Pan are on good terms, there is no need to say good things for Xue Pan in front of him.
As for whether she will be implicated by the Wang family and Wang Ziteng, the married daughter is not a member of the Xue family. Not to mention that Xue Baochai's surname is Xue. Even if the Wang family rebels and is executed by the Nine Clan, it has nothing to do with Xue Baochai.
When he married into the Shi family, his name was Shixue.
The "nine clans" generally refer to "the four clans of the father, the three clans of the mother, and the two clans of the wife."
The so-called "four fathers' clan" refers to the person's own clan, plus the married aunt and her son, the married sister and nephew, the married daughter and the grandson.
The married sisters and nephews obviously said that something would happen to Xue Pan, but nothing happened to the niece, let alone the married niece.
Unless it's from the Ten Clans, that's another story.
Yu Honggao smiled and said, "Don't worry, the girl I selected for you is not only beautiful and beautiful, has a clean official background, but also manages the family well. She helped her eldest brother and widowed mother maintain the family business at the age of seven or eight.
It can be said that apart from losing my father when I was young, there is nothing wrong with me."
Is there such a good girl?
Shi Zhongkui looked at the smiling Yu Honggao in surprise, but he didn't believe it.
As for losing one's father since childhood, it is not considered a big deal in the eyes of modern people. Instead, one has to support one's father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Moreover, he has no abilities and no relatives or elders, so he is like a lonely person.
If my wife is really that kind, not to mention supporting my mother-in-law, the whole family will have enough food and clothing every month.
Except, of course, Voldemort.
However, thinking about the ancient women who married and obeyed their husbands, Shi Zhongkui really didn't worry that his wife would dare to go behind his back and buy a house and land for his brother and help him marry his wife.
And from what Yu Honggao said, the other party was not only an official, but also rich in wealth.
If you say "rich", you are at least at the level of a big landowner whose family has thousands of acres of fertile land. Girls raised by such families are generally well-educated and well-educated.
Coupled with the fact that his father died young, he will definitely be more sensible.
When Yu Honggao saw Shi Zhongkui frowning and not speaking, but showing no sign of anger, he smiled and said, "Bo Qian, are you on good terms with Xue Pan?"
Damn it, Shi Zhongkui almost choked on his saliva.
It was said so clearly that he would be a fool if he didn't understand it any more.
Thinking about it carefully, I suddenly realized that I really couldn't find a reason to refuse, or since I had to marry a wife, Xue Baochai was definitely a very suitable wife candidate.
As for Xue Pan, as long as this guy becomes his brother-in-law, I have many ways to make him honest.
To put it bluntly, the less useful Xue Pan is, the better it is for him.
Eating, drinking and having fun is not a bad thing for a wealthy family, but if you don't know how to pretend to understand, and if you don't have the ability, you still have to participate in political affairs and court battles, that is the cause of the destruction of the family and the annihilation of the clan.
Moreover, the more the Xue family's business declined, the more excuses he had to intervene.
Although there is no need to worry about the Xue family's property, Shi Zhongkui, a modern man, understands the importance of sales channels very well.
He agreed in his heart, but said with his mouth, "Teacher, as far as the student knows, Miss Xue family has not yet reached the age of hairpin, how can she marry the disciple?"
Yu Honggao smiled, and within a few seconds he even started laughing.
"Gao Yongmin said that Bo Qian is like his master, Mr. Pang. Now it seems that Bo Qian is more like his master, but he has been thinking about Miss Xue family since early in the morning."
Shi Zhongkui was stunned. What this meant was that you yourself had been thinking about your master's wife from a long time ago, and then you did everything you could to marry her home?
This is really an injustice to myself.
No, it's not an injustice. After all, after learning that he came to the world of Red Mansions, there were basically no people who didn't miss Lin Daiyu and Xue Baochai.
Yu Honggao must have thought that after getting to know Xue Pan, he was concerned about his family background. Otherwise, he had never even met Xue Baochai, how could his attitude change so quickly.
"My mentor didn't know something," Shi Zhongkui hurriedly explained, so as not to leave the impression in Yu Honggao's mind that he was thinking about other people's wealth and connections.
"A few days ago, the three brothers Jia Lian, Jia Zhen, and Jia Baoyu from the Jia family came to the door in person to secretly inquire about the disciple's birth date. From then on, the student certainly wanted to know the cause and effect.
I thought it was Jia She, the eldest son of the Jia family, who was eyeing the ancestral fans in the hands of the students. Then he thought of using the pretext of marrying a concubine and the betrothal gift to seize the four fans that the student's mother had repeatedly requested to be passed on to her daughter-in-law when she was still alive.
"
"Is there anything else?"
Yu Honggao frowned and nodded, knowing in his heart that since Shi Zhongkui had found out Jia She's purpose, basically the affairs of the Jia family's inner courtyard could not be hidden from him.
And the Xue family lives in Rongguo Mansion, so knowing the situation of the Xue family brothers and sisters, it is normal.
"Does Bo Qian have any ideas?"
Shi Zhongkui was not worried at all whether Yu Honggao would care about his source of information. One thing is that the Jia family was just like a leaky shabby house, and it was impossible to hide things.
Secondly, after entering the official career in the future, people will be suspicious if they only show their skills a little bit.
It's better to show your own extraordinary qualities little by little.
He smiled and shook his head, "The Jia family are just rice bugs enjoying their wealth and status. It is easy to teach Jia She a lesson, but although the second-in-command is pedantic, he is also a rare conservative gentleman. The disciple will handle it properly."
"That's the best thing you can think of." Yu Honggao nodded with satisfaction. It was normal to deal with enemies and those with malicious intentions, but by not involving good people, he was keeping the bottom line.
However, Jia Zhengxun was born into a noble family, but he was poor and scholarly, and he was pedantic and conservative, so it was difficult for him to become a great person. It seemed that the Jia family was indeed in decline.
"Bo Qian doesn't know, Miss Xue is only 14 years old. After you take the exam next year, she will be 15 and have hairpins. When she gets married, it will be a double happiness."
Damn it, when Shi Zhongkui thought about getting married at 15 or even 13, he screamed in his heart that he was not a pervert.
But if you really find a 20-year-old girl, outsiders will think there is something wrong with your brain.
Then 16?
However, he must agree to this matter first, and he handed over his hand to Hong Gao and said, "Disciples make all decisions based on the teacher."
As for Lin Daiyu, Shi Zhongkui thought that his sister-in-law was either seven or eight years old at this time, or 11 or 2 years old.
"Okay, very good."
Yu Honggao was overjoyed. When the matter was confirmed, he told Shi Zhongkui that there was something about the emperor. Then he would not be forced, but should be as happy and excited as when he first learned about it.
"In that case, I will write back to the Xue family as a teacher." After saying this, Yu Honggao wanted to leave.
But as soon as he crossed the threshold, he thought of something and turned around and said, "Since Bo Qian agreed, why not give the fan your mother told you to the Xue family as a token?"
At that time, the teacher will make it clear to the Xue family that as long as they accept the fan, the marriage will be settled."
Shi Zhongkui nodded indifferently, apologized and told Yu Honggao to wait, and took out four Xiang Fei folding fans from the space on the pretext of going to the bedroom.
