Chapter 87 talk about marriage
The old lady babbled and said all the things that had been accumulated in her heart all these years, which made Chu Chaoyang feel sad when she heard it.He remembered how difficult it was for his mother to take him with him back then, so he shook the old lady's hand and said, "Mother, my son has made you worry. When Ah Rao's matter is settled, my son will definitely think about it."

"Is this true?" The old lady looked at Chu Chaoyang with tears in her eyes, and seeing him nodding heavily, she said, "Since that's the case, let's quickly decide on Ah Rao's matter, and you can choose a suitable family?"

Hearing this, Chu Chaoyang was embarrassed. The women in the inner court always took care of such matters, but he was negligent.

Wiping away her tears, the old lady sighed: "You, do you really need to marry if you are your own girl? I picked a few before, and I think there are some good ones. In the past few days, I will let people go to find out. If you have a family Those who are innocent and polite can also consider it.”

Hearing this, Chu Chaoyang frowned, and said, "Let's wait for Ah Rao and Yan to discuss this matter."

"Procrastinating, procrastinating, procrastinating until May, Ah Rao and Ji. At that time, I will meet people, get married, prepare dowry, three matchmakers and six hires. It won't take half a year to do it. It's freezing in winter. Don't you want Ah Rao to suffer that, it's better to make a decision early and get things done in autumn."

Chu Chaoyang hesitated and said, "There is no rush next year..."

"Don't be in a hurry. After Ah Rao becomes a big girl, it will be difficult to pick someone else." The old lady said bitterly, "Could it be that you want Ah Rao to be a widower's successor?"

Chu Chaoyang heard this reasoning, and said, "I'll ask my mother to come up with an idea on this matter, but let Ah Rao know about the person in this match, it's best if we can fall in love with each other..." As he spoke, he sighed heavily again .

The old lady was silent, thinking of the pair of Chu Chaoyang and Gu Shi, she also nodded: "I have a sense of proportion in this matter, but it is Gu Shi's side, you should hurry up and make people look good, don't come out all day when you have nothing to do to embarrass others. "

"Yes." Chu Chaoyang nodded.

The old madam felt a bit sleepy when the stone fell down in her heart, she leaned on the big pillow and waved her hands: "Okay, don't rely on me anymore, go and do whatever you need to do."

Chu Chaoyang saluted, and then backed out. Ding Er put on a cloak for him with a smile and said, "My lord, this princess is quite enlightened today, and she didn't disappoint you at all, right?"

Chu Chaoyang didn't make a sound, and said after a while, "You have been keeping a close eye on the old lady's courtyard for the past few days. If they are going to inquire about something, you should stop them and don't show your face."

The smile on his face faded a bit, Ding Er said solemnly: "Yes." Then he asked, "If there is such a suitable family?"

Chu Chaoyang said impatiently: "Stop it first, I'll see if it's suitable." After a pause, he continued, "If A-Rao doesn't like it, I will definitely not force her... so as not to follow me. follow suit."

It is said that every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. At this time, Chu Liangrao's marriage seems to have become the most important matter of the palace, but the parties are as if nothing happened, and what they should do will not be affected in the slightest.

Looking for time to go to the temple to pray, Chu Liangrao stood looking at a newly opened green calyx for a long time, until his knees were sore, and then he returned to the mansion.

And Zhu Xiucai also resigned from Yun Laosi, Yun Laosi had already seen that Zhu Xiucai was not a businessman, the reason why he took him this year was out of kindness, and now Zhu Xiucai wanted to leave on his own, he Since he wouldn't stop him, he only gave another 20 taels of reward, which was considered a complete friendship.

With this money, Zhu Xiucai rented a small yard in the city. Because of the remote location, the price was much cheaper than other yards, but it cost more than 20 taels of silver a year. After drinking and eating, he gave away the change. After completing the paperwork, he wrote a letter to his daughter to reassure Ding Xiang.

Ding Xiang was naturally happy when she learned that her father had found a place to live, but she knew her father's nature of reporting good news but not bad ones, so she asked about the location of the yard.Knowing that it was the most remote alleyway, she took out the spare money and said, "Father, this courtyard is rented out, and the money is used as my daughter's celebration of your housewarming. You can't push it away."

Zhu Xiucai saw that what his daughter gave was all broken silver, so he knew it was her usual reward. He didn't want to accept it, but he couldn't refuse it.He simply talked about his plan: "It's not a bad thing to live on the sidelines. It's close to the outside of the city. I thought about the good harvest these years, so I wanted to collect some land. When the grain is harvested next year, it will be profitable."

Ding Xiang was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, but he didn't expect that his father really planned to take over the land as Chu Liangrao said, so he persuaded: "Father, you don't know, most of the land outside the city is owned by the nobles in the city, how can they be sold to retail investors?" Seeing that Zhu Xiucai was beaten, she continued, "Father, the princess said that instead of buying land with money, it is better to build a pond and raise some fish and crabs. The nobles in this city like it. Woolen cloth."

"But in this cold weather, even ponds are frozen..." Zhu Xiucai murmured.

"Because the pond is frozen, the price will not be expensive. If the ice melts in a few days, the price will go up." After thinking for a while, Ding Xiang said again, "Daddy has taken a good look at the place and came to meet my daughter. Tell me, my daughter will help the staff and give you an idea."

Zhu Xiucai was very relieved to see his daughter progressing so much now, and thought that he would have to make a decent dowry for his daughter, so he didn't sit any longer, and directly hired a car to go outside the city to see if there was anyone selling ponds.Many families dig out their own land to make ponds, but they usually plant some aquatic plants or raise some koi for viewing. Most of the fish they eat are caught from other places.

According to the princess, if he raises fish by himself, the price of the pond will rise accordingly, and then he will sell the pond and open a small shop.Although it is not said to be rich and powerful, it will also be prosperous.

But Zhu Xiucai also knew that although he was a scholar, although he followed him to many places, he couldn't be blind to fish farming.Therefore, it is also very important to hire a capable assistant, but these are issues that he needs to think about. Apart from giving ideas, Chu Liangrao will not help him much, lest people see the convenience of the palace and ask for everything. .

Zhu Xiucai was also up to date, he shopped around to choose a place, and picked out an honest and capable guy, and then he started thinking about what kind of fish to raise.But after thinking about it, he found that he didn't have enough money left to buy fish fry, so he was in trouble for a while.

Ding Xiang had expected this earlier, and took out the rhetoric that Chu Liangrao taught her, and told Zhu Xiucai that she was buying shares.Zhu Xiucai could accept this kind of rhetoric, thinking that there was still her daughter's hard work in it, so she was more careful and careful, and after picking and picking, she chose some fry to raise for experimentation first.
