Chapter 1316 Xin Zijuan The thoughts of the girls in the setting sun and grass trees
Wang Xifeng couldn't answer this question for a while. Are there any good girls in the Jia family? But how many of them have found good families?
The eldest girl entered the palace and struggled hard in the cold rain and wind. Outsiders didn't know it, but Wang Xifeng knew very well that it was an abyss where there was no return.
The future of the second girl is still uncertain. If she really wants to marry into the Sun family, it will be a den of tigers and wolves.
The third girl is brave and high-spirited, and has the spirit of a man, but it is a pity that she is a concubine, and the master and wife don't care much about her. She is sixteen years old, but she has not been arrested yet. Aunt Zhao is also a fool. How can she expect her to spy for her? Can't Chun find a good family? Once this master goes to Jiangxi, he won't be able to come back for two or three years. I'm afraid that the girl Tan's fate will have to be left to her wife's whim.
The fourth girl is still younger, but with the character and virtues of Jia Zhen and Jia Rong, it is difficult to find a suitable one for her. No one can predict where her fate will be.
There is also Girl Yun. The Shi family is in a state of trouble right now. The brothers of the Shi family have no intention to care about Girl Yun. They just leave Girl Yun here and ignore her. Maybe they just send her away to find someone to live with. If it's over, just don't come and compete with the two brothers for the family property.
Even Li Wan's two cousins came to Beijing just to find a suitable family, didn't they? But considering the situation of the Li family in Jinling, it shouldn't be difficult to find one, but if you come to the capital city to find a more perfect one, it may not be as satisfactory as you want.
After a long time, Ping'er seemed to remember something and said: "Grandma, Uncle Feng is coming to the house for a banquet tomorrow, and both the uncle and the master will accompany him in person. I heard from my wife that many people outside have learned about Feng. The uncle is coming to Jia's house and wants to take the opportunity to visit and find an opportunity to meet Uncle Feng, which makes the master and his wife very embarrassed."
"Things like this happen everywhere. Chunyan follows the trend and makes his own decisions. Brother Keng is a nostalgic person, so he came to Rongguo Mansion. If outsiders want to see him, they can't do anything. Naturally, they can come up with any ideas. When I came out, the master cherished his face and was reluctant to refuse people, so that was all."
Wang Xifeng knew Jia Zheng's temperament very accurately. If he couldn't lose his dignity, he would have to bite the bullet and suffer the consequences.
"Grandma, what about us?" Ping'er looked over and said, "Uncle Feng is back. I heard that Second Master Lian will be back at the end of this year. A year has passed in the blink of an eye. What should we do?"
Asking about the key point in one sentence also reminds Wang Xifeng to find a way out and a resettlement place as soon as possible. You cannot wait until Jia Lian comes back. If you are still here and refuse to leave, it will be even more embarrassing. Wang Xifeng cannot tolerate this situation. Fall on yourself.
Wang Xifeng sighed softly, and Wang Xifeng's lonely and gloomy expression was fully revealed.
Easier said than done. After living in this Rongguo Mansion for so many years, how can leaving be a simple matter of doing it?
There are many aspects involved, especially running away alone. Is it the difference between being kicked out and being kicked out with only a penny?
At least everything must be prepared.
The residence, manpower, business, and even subsequent connections, all must be considered carefully. To maintain the current status and maintain the current momentum so as not to be left behind, all aspects need to be considered and prepared. Nothing is simple. .
The house is simple, just find a suitable place and buy it, but manpower is a big problem.
Once she leaves Rongguo Mansion, apart from Ping'er, Feng'er and Sister Shan will most likely follow her. Wang Xifeng is still sure of this.
There is also Lin Hongyu.
This girl took the initiative to ask to come to her room. Unexpectedly, not long after she came, she stopped paying attention to the company's big debt, but she didn't seem to feel any sense of loss.
Her parents are both in Rongguo Mansion, so they can see the situation clearly. Her current situation is not good, so her parents should be unwilling. But judging from the current behavior of this girl, she seems to be very close to her, so she is not willing. If you are willing to go with yourself, you still need to talk twice.
This girl is also a character with a clever mind and a high vision. It probably depends on the situation and her own prospects before she can decide.
Among the male servants, it goes without saying that Wang Xin came with him from the Wang family. He is nothing without him, and the Jia family will not keep him. Laiwang and Laixi also came with him, so they should follow him.
However, it is a good thing that Feng Ziying has returned to Beijing. At least Wang Xifeng will not be helpless when encountering something, and can inquire about news and seek advice at any time.
Just when Wang Xifeng was filled with sorrow, Daiyu, Tanchun and Xiangyun had returned to Xiaoxiang Pavilion, and Zijuan and Xueyan also came back.
Li Wan naturally had nothing to worry about, so he agreed to bring his two younger sisters to the banquet.
The kitchen is still Sister-in-law Liu, who has always taken good care of the Xiaoxiang Pavilion. When she heard that Daiyu was going to treat the newly "returned" Second Grandma Keng, who was the original Miss Bao, she was naturally speechless.
Even Xueyan refused to accept the handful of copper coins that Xueyan gave them. Later, Xueyan forced them to keep them and then reluctantly accepted them. She patted her chest and said that she would definitely prepare the best lunch meal.
Leaning on the bed, Shi Xiangyun simply took off his shoes, revealing a pair of feet wearing only silk stockings. He curled up on the bed and closed his eyes: "I didn't sleep well today. It was all because of you two." One of them wants to toss around, one wants to treat guests, and the other wants to be in charge, but what do they care about me? I just have a mouth to make ends meet, so why bother me like this?"
“Hmph, let me see how long you can survive like this?” Tan Chun said coldly: “You are also sixteen this year. Have your historians not thought about you at all?”
"Hehe, how can my second and third uncles care about me now? I went back last month, and my third aunt burst into tears when she saw me, saying that I owed a lot of debts. Now my third uncle has disappeared without a trace. I heard Which temple are you hiding in? I'm tired of hearing it, but you still have to endure it? Don't you just want to sell those things in the house? You haven't asked for my opinion. Now you just tell me to inform me. It’s just a puppet.”
Shi Xiangyun lay on his back on the kang couch somewhat inelegantly. Although there was a hint of laughter in his words, his eyes were looking at the roof with an indifferent expression, "The second uncle went to Shanxi, and the second aunt avoided meeting him. It is said that he even talked with her. The third aunt fought a war and the whole family is like this. Where can I go? What can I do? Who can care about me? "
The age of sixteen is a hurdle for girls. Generally speaking, according to folk customs in the Zhou Dynasty, girls should be engaged between the ages of fourteen and sixteen. It is also common for girls to be engaged at the age of twelve or thirteen. It is not uncommon to get married at the age of fourteen, but marriage is basically considered at the age of sixteen.
This marriage discussion is not just as simple as an engagement, but also to complete various preparations after the engagement, including various procedures and betrothal gifts, etc., and just wait for the time to come.
But Shi Xiangyun's situation is indeed a bit rare. The second uncle went to the other side of Shanxi. Logically, the third uncle should be in charge. However, Shi Nai was a gambler and was heavily in debt, so he had no choice but to run away and hide in a temple. Dare to show up.
Both aunts regarded Shi Xiangyun as a burden. They wanted to push Shi Xiangyun out, but they were unwilling to do their best. With the current situation of the Shi family, it was indeed difficult to find a suitable one, so they just kept doing it.
"Then you should write a letter to your second uncle and ask him to consider it." Daiyu also added: "If you keep putting it off like this, it will be difficult to find you when you turn sixteen, and your reputation will not be good. .”
Shi Xiangyun is the legitimate daughter of the Shi family, and after all, she is a martial artist, so she still needs to have some reputation and face.
"I'm afraid it will be a month before my second uncle receives the letter. I'm afraid it will be years and months until he is willing to reply." Shi Xiangyun knew these people in his family, so he said casually: "I hope they can still It's better to rely on myself. There are still some people who care about me here in Rongguo Mansion. If it doesn't work, I will ask my ancestors to show me a marriage. I can marry a chicken or a dog at will. I accept it. If I can't help it, I Just follow the example of Sister Miaoyu, keep your hair and become a nun in a nunnery."
"Bullshit!" Daiyu's face sank: "Sister Miaoyu is just talking out of anger. When will she be a lifelong aunt? You are thinking wildly all the time. Even if your historians don't care, the ancestors always have to care. Yeah, why are you so depressed?"
Daiyu is usually not very angry, but some of her best friends occasionally show their true temperament. When she heard about Miaoyu, Daiyu felt a little blocked, and Xiangyun was also like this. I couldn't bear it anymore.
Xiangyun and Tanchun were both shocked. It was rare to see Daiyu get so angry and straightforward in person. In the past, this girl would usually be angry, sulky, and made sarcastic remarks, but this was a bit rare today.
Tanchun felt that Daiyu had changed a lot, especially today's situation. She seemed to be stimulated by something. Well, maybe it was the return of Sister Bao?
Tan Chun was the smartest one, and immediately caught some changes in Daiyu's mood, and deliberately tried to lighten the atmosphere: "Girl Yun was just joking, sister Lin, don't be angry, because I will be sixteen soon, wouldn't it be the same? "
"You are different from Yun Yatou. Even if your uncle wants to go south, your aunt is still there and always cares about you. And maybe uncle and the others are inviting Brother Feng to come over tomorrow to discuss your life-long affairs. .”
Daiyu retorted, her tone softened a lot, and she teased the other person.
Tan Chun was startled and almost jumped up from the kang couch, but she quickly realized that Lin Yatou was not talking about what Brother Huan told her, but that the master asked Brother Feng to find someone for him. It was only about marriage matters, how could she say such things so openly.
