Back to ancient times to open obstetrics

Chapter 757 Jiang Zixin (1)
However, Aunt Jiang's Grandma Ying heard Du Ruo's words that day, and she immediately felt no regrets.To be honest, if her husband and son are both there, and someone in the family is serving in the court, even if she goes to Gao Gao to find a marriage, that is enough.Now that there is no man to rely on, the family only has a little savings left by the ancestors, and they have to worry about the grandson's career in the future, so the granddaughter's marriage is getting more and more difficult.

Jiang Zixin is already sixteen this year, and will be seventeen next year.If Jiang Zicheng doesn't have a high school next year, then this marriage will probably have to be found in a lower family. Who would have known that the Jiang family is now in such a state of desperation.Over there, Mrs. Shen heard it from nowhere, saying that the Empress Dowager invited the old matriarch from the family of a fourth-rank official in Beijing to bring the girls to the palace for the Double Ninth Festival banquet.Shen Shi pinched her fingers and calculated, the position judged by Du Yuan happened to be a fourth-rank one.Presumably Mrs. Du and the three girls from the Du family were on the list for the banquet.Shen Shi looked at her own girl, and said helplessly: "If the old lady is still here, our family is also a fourth-rank official, and the old lady can just bring Xin girl into the palace to open her eyes."

Aunt Jiang thought about it for a long time, then she only sighed and said: "For the sake of Xin girl's marriage, I can only sacrifice this old face, at least let the old lady bring Xin girl into the palace together, it's not that I think highly of my family. Girl, in terms of appearance, she is also excellent, there are many old ladies in the palace, maybe someone will fall in love with her, this opportunity is really rare."

Seeing that Aunt Jiang relaxed, she only smiled and said: "My daughter-in-law has already prepared some small gifts here, why don't the old lady take this opportunity to send them over? Tomorrow will be Double Ninth Festival, so I can help Xin girl get ready Clothes to be worn in the palace."

Over there, Mrs. Du's Fushou Hall is also bustling with activity.It turned out that after receiving the invitation from the Empress Dowager, Mrs. Du ordered someone to dress the three girls when they were preparing to enter the palace.The Du family is a merchant and has never been short of money. When Mrs. Du was young, she was afraid that others would laugh at her as a merchant's family, so she never dared to be extravagant.Later, Mrs. Du found out that having money is indeed a pleasant thing, so she stopped hiding it. Anyway, the money did not come from Mr. Du's embezzlement and bribery. She spent it with peace of mind.

Mrs. Du has no daughters, so she was both happy and depressed when she saw that Mrs. Du over there dressed up the three girls properly.I am happy that my daughter-in-law Liu Qiqiao is not bad from appearance to manner.What's depressing is that Mrs. Du didn't know what was on her mind, and she didn't dare to speak.Fortunately, a few days ago, Master Du told her that the eldest princess of Shuiyue Temple agreed to be a matchmaker for Du Ruo and Liu Qiqiao, and her mind finally relaxed a little.

Over there, Aunt Jiang came in with a gift, and when she saw the three beautifully dressed girls, she also murmured to herself, if this dress was worn on Girl Xin, she might not lose to them.

Mrs. Du called three maids, and they all stood in front of her, tasted them one by one, and said: "I look good, the bead flower on the girl's head should be replaced by a plain one. Only then can you show your temperament. Girl Qian, don’t wear such a bright rouge tomorrow, your skin is fair, it’s better to have a lighter one.” Mrs. Du could only smile and nod and said: “My wife will send her a more plain one in a while.”
