Chapter 328 The New Master

327
Wu Xingbang and Wu Chao came back the next afternoon. When they came back, Wu Xingbang looked disappointed, and Huanhuan asked curiously, "Master, the girl's father didn't like my brother?"

Wu Xingbang glanced at his grandson, but did not speak.

Miao said anxiously: "Old man, you are talking, what did the girl's father say?"

Wu Xingbang sighed softly, and then said: "The girl's father knew that our family could not be an official for generations, so he talked about him from left to right. This marriage is probably hopeless."

They could all see that the girl's father was very envious of the fact that Ding Jinyongyuan took the first place in the examination, but Chao'er "unintentionally" mentioned the fact that the old Wu family could not be an official for generations, and the other party's attitude immediately changed Obvious change.

It's just that what Wu Chao said was the truth, so Wu Xingbang can't blame Wu Chao for this matter, he just feels disappointed.

"The girl's father still hopes that Chao'er will make an official career?" Mrs. Miao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Since the girl's father doesn't like our family, let's forget about it. It's because the other party is not satisfied with our family. Don't feel sorry for Old Master Ding."

"Bo'erniang." Wu Xingbang suddenly looked at Mrs. Zeng.

"Father, what's the matter?" Zeng asked.

"You open a rouge shop, and the customers who come to the shop are girls and women. You can chat with the customers more to see if there is any girl suitable for Chao'er?"

Now the life of the old Wu family is getting better and better, and many acquaintances come to inquire about Wu Chao's marriage, but they are all girls from the nearby village who have never studied, and Wu Chao has said long ago that he The person to marry must be literate and reasonable.

And the girls in the city are no better than those in the countryside, many of them can read and write, that's why Wu Xingbang came up with the idea of ​​asking Mrs. Zeng to inquire.

Zeng hesitated for a while before saying, "Father, I will try my best."

I don't know if it's appropriate to ask these questions to the guests?
After dinner, Huanhuan told Wu Xingbang and Mrs. Zeng that he wanted to hire a knowledgeable teacher for Wu Bo alone. Money?"

Duan's house does have a place to live, but other expenses will increase a lot, and she is afraid that she will not be able to afford it.

"Second Aunt, you don't have to worry about money." Huanhuan said, "If you and Grandpa both agree, I'll let Yishu find out."

Wu Xingbang didn't object, but Mrs. Zeng was still a little hesitant. After all, her husband wasn't around, so she had nothing to discuss.

"Thank you, sister!" Wu Bo shouted happily: "Mother, you agree, I will study hard in the future, even if I can't go into an official career, what I have learned will not be wasted!"

Wu Xingbang smiled gratifiedly: "Bo'er is sensible, since Bo'er is so motivated, Mrs. Zeng, let Huanhuan find a new wife for Bo'er?"

Miao also nodded in agreement: "Money is earned and spent, as long as Bo'er is happy. If there is not enough money, I still have it."

Everyone agreed to this matter, and it was for the benefit of his own son. How could Mrs. Zeng have any reason to object?

Cheng Yishu has a wide network of contacts, and he invited Bo'er's new wife back before the end of the year.

The new master, surnamed Jiang and named Siqi, was born in Juren. He had served as the county magistrate for several years, but because he couldn't get used to the intrigue and dirty things in the officialdom, he resigned in anger and devoted himself to writing books at home.

"Writing a book?" Huanhuan asked in surprise, "What book are you writing?"

"It seems to be about water conservancy." Cheng Yishu thought for a while and said, "I don't know exactly what to write. If the girl wants to know, I can go to Master Jiang to find out."
