Red makeup against the world

Chapter 499 Marriage Again?
"Don't dare to lie to the Empress Dowager, the minister has had a few times of cold, so she managed to get well. My uncle told me that even in summer, you should not be greedy for cold food."

Empress Dowager Xiao laughed, "Why do you just look at you pleasing to the eye, it turns out that your diet is the same as mine."

At the end, he sighed again: "However, this sour plum soup can't be chilled, it tastes a bit lacking. I'm old, and I tasted everything when I was young. It's a pity that you are still young."

Xu Wanzhen pursed her lips and smiled: "The empress dowager is worried. It's the minister's fault. The little uncle said that when the minister gets married and has a child, it will be fine for another two years. At that time, there is no need to be taboo about it. "

Speaking of Su Liangzhi, Empress Dowager Xiao was even more enthusiastic: "Your little uncle is very good, he is not yet twenty, and his medical skills are so superb. When the epidemic is over, what reward do you want? What reward does Doctor Su want? You can think about it in advance Come and tell me."

Xu Wanzhen was taken aback, and waved her hands again and again: "Empress Dowager, the minister did not do this to ask the empress to ask for a reward."

Empress Dowager Xiao said with a smile: "The Ai family knows. But the Tian family has its own rules. You have made such a great contribution. Even the emperor told the Ai family that you will be rewarded. If you don't reward yourself for your merits, how can you let it go in the future?" People use their lives? Since you want to reward, reward something that is affordable."

Xu Wanzhen listened silently, she understood this truth, but she was negligent and never thought about it.

It seems that I have been at ease for too long, and even ignored such an obvious thing.

She smiled lightly and said: "Empress Dowager, let me think about it carefully. However, I want to ask for a reward for another person." Now that the epidemic is under control, the dust has basically settled down.

"Don't worry, think about it slowly. Who is that person?"

"It's Mr. Ning who is currently teaching the two cousins ​​at Tu's house. Mr. Ning contributed a lot when discussing the epidemic prevention strategy. It's just that the situation is urgent and we won't be able to elaborate in the future."

"It turned out to be her." Mr. Ning is quite famous in Beijing, and Empress Dowager Xiao must have heard of it: "Are you afraid that if something goes wrong, it will implicate her?"

Seen through by Empress Dowager Xiao, Xu Wanzhen lowered her head impressively: "Nothing can be hidden from the empress dowager's eyes."

"Okay, I see." Queen Mother Xiao asked with a smile: "By the way, is Dr. Su married?"

"Report to the Empress Dowager, little uncle is not engaged yet."

Empress Dowager Xiao was surprised: "How come? Looking at his age, he should have reached the crown."

For a normal man at this age, even if he is not married, he is already engaged, just like Xu Wenmin.

"I don't know anything about the Queen Mother. The minister's daughter and grandfather have practiced medicine for generations. The family rules must travel in the medical field for ten years before they can open a medical clinic to treat diseases and save lives."

"Why is this?" Queen Mother Xiao asked in confusion.

Xu Wanzhen explained: "I didn't understand at first, but my grandmother explained to me that this is a rule handed down by the ancestors of the Su family. It is said that if you want to cure a disease, you must be well-informed, see more diseases, and know more about it." It has a lot of medicinal properties. If it is only a corner, how dare you say that you can cure diseases?"

"Grandpa got to know grandma on the way to go to the doctor in Yunyun, and later went back to grandma's hometown Changzhou to open a medical clinic together. But he still maintains the habit of practicing medicine everywhere, and grandma is mainly in charge of the medical clinic."

"On the day my daughter-in-law passed away, my grandfather was still looking for medicinal materials in Lingnan Road to cure my mother's illness." For some reason, Xu Wanzhen became more and more relaxed in front of Empress Dowager Xiao. At this time, he even said it frankly.

Speaking of A Niang's death, Xu Wanzhen's eyes were sad, it was her most regrettable thing.

She came here and tried to adapt and integrate into this world.Trying my best to change and save the fate of others, Wu Zhengxiang's, my father's and brother's, and even the people in Luoyang City.

But A Niang, who was so gentle, loved me so much, and who was like water in my memory, her life disappeared like a flower, and she would never come back.

"Poor child." Empress Dowager Xiao helped the little white flower on her head, no wonder she was so sensible.Can a motherless child be ignorant?No matter how many people love her, she can't replace her own mother.

Sucking her nose, Xu Wan was really a little embarrassed: "Forgive me, the empress dowager, the minister has lost her manners."

"Look at you, you're so painful, don't even think about it. Then, why isn't Dr. Su engaged?"

After stabilizing her emotions, Xu Wanzhen continued: "My little uncle is from my grandfather's old age, and he is amazingly talented in practicing medicine. Grandpa was very happy, so he took him around to practice medicine and went to many places. He heard about my grandfather's medical practice. The story with my grandmother, and my determination to find a like-minded girl on the road of practicing medicine, has been delayed until now."

"The courtier feels that once the little uncle starts to specialize in medical skills, he will ignore everything, let alone the women who appear around him. If it continues like this, he doesn't know when he will get married. There are two uncles who will carry on the family line. Even grandpa and grandma won't force him."

Hearing that Su Liangzhi was not engaged yet, Empress Dowager Xiao's matchmaking heart burned blazingly.

As a matchmaker, I did a very good job.If he hadn't intervened, Wu Zhengxiang might not have gotten married at twenty.This is another person who has reached the crown and has not yet engaged, it seems that he is the fate of this worry!
Empress Dowager Xiao took the tea on the table with a smile and drank it slowly.

I kept filtering the unmarried women in Beijing in my mind, and suddenly thought of a personal choice, which seemed quite suitable.

Putting down the teacup, she said with a smile: "Wanzhen, what do you think if I give your little uncle a marriage?"

Xu Wan was really taken aback, Empress Dowager Xiao was too unreasonable to play her cards.It seems that the gift of marriage to herself gave her a sense of accomplishment.

After thinking for a while, she replied cautiously: "I still need to ask my uncle's opinion on this matter. He said that the married woman must be the one he likes."

Otherwise, it will not be delayed until now.With his talent, learning and good looks, he has already married a wife and had children in Suzhou.

"That's natural. The Ai family will never do the thing of a wicked person who forcibly joins people together. Marriage is destined by the heavens, and the Ai family is just holding the red thread."

"In a few days, there will be a celebration banquet in the palace. We will arrange for the two to meet at that time, what do you really think?"

Empress Dowager Xiao is really keen on being a matchmaker.

Xu Wan really didn't dare to ignore Empress Dowager Xiao's kindness, so she nodded and agreed: "I don't know which family's girl can be so valued by the Empress Dowager?"

Empress Dowager Xiao smiled mysteriously: "It's not a girl, it's a princess."

This time, Xu Wanzhen couldn't hide her surprise anymore, and exclaimed, "Princess?"

Empress Dowager Xiao's plan really surprised her, and only Princess Zhaoyang was in her mind.In an instant, he realized that Princess Zhaoyang was going to marry Khitan next year, and it couldn't be her.

Seeing her surprised, Queen Mother Xiao was extremely proud: "Really, guess what?"
