Marry the first wife

Chapter 75 Crisis

Fu Yao looked at the unpredictable expression on Mrs. Xie's face, smiled sweetly, and said delicately: "Grandma, mother, Yaoyao thinks the marriage is too early."

"How about waiting for the results of Third Brother's scientific examination to come out and then discuss it?"

Mrs. Xie looked at the shy face of Fu Yao's daughter, with a little shyness in her starry eyes.

General Jingyuan's Mansion is not considered a wealthy family, it has been a century-old family, but the Li family has been a businessman for generations, and their ancestors have accumulated it for generations to achieve the current situation.

Fu Yao bit her lip and continued: "Grandma, my granddaughter still wants to see with her own eyes the elegance of the third brother who topped the list?"

The words came to a critical point. Mrs. Fu was worried about Fu Yao's marriage, but she didn't care about Fu Weiyuan who was still in spring.

"Boss, what do you think about this marriage?"

Mrs. Fu lowered her eyes and said in a voice that only she and Mrs. Xie could hear.

Mrs. Xie originally ignored the marriage of this royal merchant, and she was just greedy for profit before.

When Fu Yao declined just now, she thought a lot.

As long as there are children in the house, as long as they are not concubines and are being manipulated by their mistress, many people will know that Fu Yao is her stepdaughter. I am afraid that this marriage will not be as simple as Mrs. Fu imagined.

After Fu Yao got married, Fu Yao still had several girls to marry.

Mrs. Xie may not care about her reputation, but she has to consider her children.

Mrs. Xie let out a long sigh, sorted through her thoughts and chose some words to say to Mrs. Fu.

Fu Yao felt a little relieved, but only a little.

"Even so, Yao Yatou's marriage cannot be rushed."

Mrs. Xie nodded.

Seeing her grandmother's eyebrows drooping, she quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second she suddenly heard Mrs. Xie say:

"Let's not rush today, let's wait and see. However, Yao Yao has reached her age, and mother, we should make a good choice."

Most of the women of the right age in this dynasty would take advantage of their prosperity to choose a suitable Lang Xu.

Later, Fu Yao stood in front of the gate of Anheyuan and looked at the yard opposite. The house that was once brightly lit was now completely dark.

After returning from the Fu family's old house, she never saw Shen Zhaoxian again.

During this period of time, Shen Zhaoxian mostly stayed at home, as did his third brother.

Today is the first day of the ceremony presided over by the Ministry of Etiquette. I wonder how they are doing?

Thinking of what Mrs. Xie and her grandmother had said to her today, Fu Yao's heart grew colder.

She wanted to rush into the examination place immediately and tell Shen Zhaoxian everything that happened today, and tell him that she did not want to marry the second son of the Li family.

He is the one she wants to marry!

What little sense she had left told her that she couldn't and couldn't.

The etiquette education over the years has been deeply ingrained in the bones, and girls should have no less reserve.

What's more, if Shen Zhaoxian really stood in front of her, she might not be able to ask one, two, three. In front of that person, wouldn't she do such self-humiliating things enough?

She had hinted to him countless times, openly and secretly, that as long as he was willing to say even a little bit that he liked her, she would be as stubborn and stubborn as a moth flying into a flame.

But, no!

All this was just her imagination, but she didn't want to marry that Young Master Li either.

Ah!

There are so many people who choose the world, and it is so difficult to find a satisfactory husband. Living is already difficult, so where are there so many choices?

The examination will be held in three sessions, with each examination taking three days.

During the exam, there was only one booth for each person and only one table. People had to bring their own meals and oil lamps. In the end, the food they brought in was barely enough to satisfy their hunger.

The wait was extremely long.

During this period, the Li family sent someone to the door again, and she didn't know what they said.

Mrs. Xie later sent someone to look for her. This time, the tone was no longer a discussion or inquiry, but a naked order and an unquestionable decision.

She just felt like the sky was falling. "Yao Yao, your grandmother and I have been thinking about it these days and feel that the Li family's marriage is very satisfactory. The second son of the Li family has good looks and good conduct, making him a good match."

Time is short and we can’t even wait for a proper result.

Fu Yao didn't resist.

By the time the examination hosted by the Ministry of Etiquette was over, the marriage between the Fu family and the Li family was completely settled, and it was considered an open matter.

From that day on, Fu Yao stayed peacefully in Anhe Courtyard, preparing to get married without even stepping out of the house.

With the sound of firecrackers ringing in her ears, Fu Yao looked out the window at the blue sky with tearful eyes.

The second son of the Li family is said to be in poor health and is now waiting for her to marry into the Li family to celebrate his happiness.

The time also happened to be the day of the palace examination.

She didn't know if Mrs. Xie was aware of her true feelings, or if the person guarding the door was preventing her from escaping.

In fact, even if she is set free, she will not run away.

How evil-minded is a woman who runs away privately, regardless of her father being an official in the government, the dignity of her brothers, and the reputation of her sisters?

Thinking of this, Fu Yao held back the tears in her eyes little by little.

Regardless of the outcome, getting married is a happy day.

This was also the price she had to pay for wanting to enjoy glory and wealth. Although she was unwilling to do so, she could only endure it for the rest of her life in front of this powerful imperial power.

She put on a peach-pink dress embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns and stepped out of the room, followed by a group of new maids.

Arrive at Ning'an Hall.

The maid guarding the door opened the door curtain, Fu Yao took a deep breath, and slightly raised the corners of her mouth to reveal a smile.

"Grandma is fine!"

"Mother is well!"

Fu Yao saluted everyone in the room one by one. When it was the third brother's turn to join Shen Zhaoxian, his expression paused, and then he said: "Third brother, Mr. Shen is well."

Unexpectedly, this granddaughter has already brought the greatest benefit to General Jingyuan's mansion. Mrs. Fu also had a rare joyful look on her face when she saw Fu Yao.

Shen Zhaoxian looked at the person he had not seen for a long time, and felt a little more comforted when he thought of the satisfactory test paper.

"Girl Yao, please sit next to grandma quickly."

Mrs. Fu waved to Fu Yao, and Fu Yao followed her words and went to her grandmother's side.

Fu Fang, who was sitting next to her grandmother, was not annoyed and readily gave up her seat.

Yesterday, she heard from her aunt that her eldest sister was going to marry a sick man and might have to be a widower for the rest of her life.

In return, the Fu family would receive a wealthy in-law.

She thought that she might not have to pay any money when she went to those jewelery pavilions, and could have whatever she wanted.

With this thought, she didn't care about her small position today.

After all, she will become an official's wife in the future, and the road she walks will be much more valuable than that of her eldest sister.

"Girl Yao, you came just in time."

Mrs. Xie smiled and glanced at Zhou Chuyao who was standing aside, then turned to look at Fu Yao.

Babies, I think it’s so frustrating to write!
