Wangfu little dumb wife

Chapter 194 The Xu Family Talks About Matchmaking (2 more)
After Xu Shu returned home, he immediately went to the backyard to look for the old lady.

When he saw someone, before the old lady could speak, he knelt down with a plop.

The old lady asked him, "Grandson, what are you doing?"

Xu Shu sincerely repented, "Grandma, my grandson wants to confess something to you today."

The old lady's eyelids twitched, "What's the matter?"

When the matter developed to this point, he couldn't hide it even if he wanted to, so Xu Shu straightened his face and said, "Actually, my marriage with Song Xiaomei...is a fake."

After he finished speaking, he was afraid that the old lady would be angry, so he raised his eyes, only to find that the old lady just kept silent and didn't say anything.

Xu Shu said again: "At the beginning, it was to make grandma happy, so I had to do this as a last resort. All of this was my grandson's idea. If grandma is angry, she can beat me and scold me."

After his words fell, there was a long silence in the room.

Xu Shu was kneeling so uncomfortable that the old lady, who has such a lively temper, was surprisingly silent today.

Xu Shu didn't see the expected old lady getting angry, and was a little confused.

The old lady sat for a long time before asking, "Are you finished?"

"……Um."

The old lady looked at him, "I've been hiding it for two years, and I just came to confess it today. Is something wrong and I can't keep it up?"

Xu Shu didn't answer and asked instead, "Does grandma really like Song Xiaomei?"

"She won't marry me, this old woman will live with me, so what's the use of me liking her?"

"Then what if I really go to their house to propose marriage?"

The old lady was stunned for a moment, "I've been here for two years and I've been just acting with you, can I really agree to marry you now?"

Xu Shu smiled, "Don't you still believe in your grandson? If I don't make a move, I won't make a move. If I make a move, I will definitely take him down."

Hearing this, the old lady was ashamed for him.

But for my eldest grandson, I still have to encourage when it is time to encourage, and tell him that if it is really possible, I should hurry up and get the marriage done. The two of them are both very old, and it will not be a problem to delay it any longer.

Xu Shu was dazzled by the joy, and forgot to ask the old lady why she was so calm when she heard the news that he and Song Xiaomei were married.

He stood up and quickly went to the front yard to discuss with his parents.

The Xu family's opinion of family status is not too deep, let alone Song Fang is Tan Hualang's sister now, even if she really has family status, she is completely worthy of the general's mansion at this moment.

During the two years of getting along, even if it was just acting, the general and Mrs. Xu also took Song Fang's temperament seriously. They both felt that this girl was much stronger than Xu Shu's real cousin, and she should have such a personality. In order to live in the back house.

Parents had no objection, so Xu Shu went straight to the topic and talked about marriage.

Mrs. Xu said: "Don't bother with this matter, mother will ask a matchmaker to come to their house for you."

When the Xu family was about to come over to say goodbye, the Song family had already set their eyes on the day of moving.

As Wen Wan said at the beginning, the day was not coincidental, and Song Weixiumu was not caught up.

Aunt Xie and the others found out through Xie Zheng that the Song family was moving, and they came directly to the door without waiting for the people here to invite them.

When the new house was first acquired, Song Wei bought some new furniture. The old furniture from the side of the hutong courtyard was not planned to be moved to the other side. They were all small pieces, not too heavy, but a little annoying.

Fortunately, there were a lot of people, and I hired a carriage to load the goods, and moved all the things in two turns, except for Song Fang's room.

Hutong Courtyard is close to Hongwen Museum.

After Song Fang went to school, it was inconvenient to go to the Hanlin Academy, so she could only live in Hutong Academy, so she could go to school nearby the next day.

The new house is more spacious than Hutong Courtyard, it has a second entrance and has a backyard.

After moving in, Wen Wan asked the elders to rest, and she and the two daughters-in-law of the Xie family rushed to clean up the room first.

The furniture inside is all [-]% new, and the conditions are limited, and only ordinary wood is used, but it is okay to put it in a family like theirs.

Father Song glanced at it, and said that in the future, there are conditions, and he can do it himself when he buys some good wood.

Xianggong has become an official in Beijing, so how could he let him go back to his old job.

Wen Wan just smiled, and didn't say anything that would defeat the public.

The things they moved from Ningzhou before were just unsealed now, and they weighed them gently, and put out the usable ones, and didn't throw away the unusable ones, but put them all in the side room, lest the mother-in-law see her throwing them away Stuff couldn't help nagging that she wouldn't get by.

After everything was almost put away, Wen Wan took Song Yuanbao out to buy vegetables.

After all, it's a move, so it's time to treat someone to a meal.

It's just that their family doesn't have any relatives in the capital, and the only ones they can invite are Aunt Xie's family.

When Song Wei went down to the yamen, he saw that the things had been put away, so he asked a few gentle words.

Wen Wan said that there is a bedroom for sister-in-law in the yard over there, and the key is also left for her, so it will not delay her going to the Hongwen Museum.

Seeing that she thought everything through, Song Wei couldn't help but feel the irony in his heart, and stretched out his arms to hug her.

There were so many people sitting in the room, Wen Wan was afraid of being seen, so she struggled to get out with a blushing face.

The two families gathered together, and the dinner table was very lively.

Aunt Xie glanced at her grandsons who were eating or not, and then at the well-behaved Song Yuanbao on the opposite side. After the comparison, she felt a little overwhelmed by the gap, so she proposed to give up at the dinner table in front of everyone. Xie Zheng is hiring a teacher for the children.

Mrs. Song was stunned for a moment, "Didn't you say earlier that your second child wants to open a shop and let the child follow him to learn how to do business?"

"Hey, that's all the previous story." Aunt Xie said: "I didn't know until I came to the capital. I don't know how to read. Take a look at your family's Yuanbao. I have studied for several years and have a lot of knowledge. Go out for a while. I know everything, and I dare not go back to Ningzhou from the capital to pick us up alone, but I don’t dare to think about putting it on our family."

Xie Zheng said: "Sir, you can't invite anyone casually. It's not good to ask for it. Children are easy to learn wrong. I'll see if there is a suitable one in a few days."

Song Yuanbao suddenly said, "If it's just to teach them how to read, I can teach them."

He can't enter the Guozijian for the time being, these days are moldy, and he is worried that he has nothing to do.

Aunt Xie asked him, "Will it delay your studies?"

Yuan Bao's grades were good when he was in school in the town. Aunt Xie knew this. She thought that her grandsons were not very well behaved. If she really invited a husband, she might not be able to listen. One can learn well together.

"I can't delay it." Song Yuanbao said, "I won't go to the Imperial College just yet, anyway, I'm free anyway."

He himself had spoken, so Aunt Xie couldn't help but wish for it.

That's it.

A few days later, while Song Wei was taking a rest, the matchmaker hired by Xu's family came to make a kiss.

Song Wei had already said hello in advance, so when the matchmaker said that the other party was the young master of the General's Mansion, Mrs. Song didn't show much surprise on her face, but she was a little depressed that she hadn't met her prospective son-in-law even after proposing marriage.

The matchmaker didn't know the details, but only heard that the old lady was Tan Hua Lang's mother, and she had just come to the capital from the countryside not long ago.

Originally, she was thinking that women in the country had shallow eyelids, and knowing that she was about to have a young master from the general's mansion as her son-in-law, she would be so happy that she couldn't find the north, she never thought that she would not raise her eyelids.

That reaction was surprisingly calm.

The matchmaker couldn't help but secretly sighed, it seemed that she was the one with shallow eyelids, the old lady was Tan Hualang's own mother, how could she raise such a promising son if she didn't have a hard time?
It's just that a country woman can be so calm and calm, which makes people look at her highly.

This was a marriage that both parties agreed to, except that someone in the middle would draw a red line. Knowing that the girl would marry sooner or later, Mrs. Song didn't think about taking Joe, and politely asked the matchmaker a few words about Xu Shu.

The reputation of the young master of the General’s Mansion is a bit of a fool outside, but as a matchmaker, she is best at whitewashing the peace. With a clever mouth, she can tell you that the black is white, so you can’t help but want to put your daughter Plug it in.

Hearing the old lady's question, she immediately smiled and praised Xu Shu so much that there is nothing in the world.

Mrs. Song sounds unreliable, but if she doesn't trust anyone, she can't help but trust her youngest son.

I heard from Song Wei that Xu Shu had a good heart, and I also heard that the carriage and guards who went to Ningzhou to pick them up were all arranged by Xu Shu.

Mrs. Song thought, Sanlang was just a poor scholar back then, and Xu Shu was able to treat him wholeheartedly, which shows that his heart is really good, and it is considered a blessing for his daughter to be able to share such a husband.

After a brief discussion, the matchmaker returned happily with the good news that the Song family had agreed.

Song Fang only found out in the evening that the Xu family had asked someone to talk about marriage, and Xu Shu personally told her this.

Song Fang couldn't react after listening, and asked him, "So fast?"

Xu Shu hummed: "Don't hurry up, buddy, next time I see you, you will become someone else's fiancée."

Song Fang couldn't hold back, and smiled, "Then what am I going to do?"

She has seen the marriage of the third brother and the third sister-in-law, which is a very simple process.

But now in the capital city, some red tape is unavoidable.

Xu Shu looked at her, "Are you asking me? I want to ask you, do you plan to get married at the age of 19, or do you plan to stay until the age of 20?"

If it was next year, she would be able to graduate from Hongwen Hall.

But at that time, she was already 20 years old.

Married at the age of 20, it is somewhat unpleasant to say it.

But if it is 19 years old, it still occupies the title of a "teenager", and it is better than 20 years old no matter what.

Song Fang hardly thought about it, and replied directly: "Try to be before the age of 20."

"That was years ago?"

Now at the beginning of October, there is not much preparation time left.

Xu Shu said: "Whether it can be done or not, I have to let people see the day."
