Chapter 1027 Old Events
Mrs. Lu stepped forward, held her daughter's hand, took her into the house, and after letting her sit down, asked her again what she had just said: "Linglong, are you really willing to marry Gu Dexing? His family is not as well off as Gu Jin An Jiahao, he himself is not as promising as Gu Jinan. Even if he can be admitted to the scholar examination, whether he can be admitted to the judicial examination in the future is still one thing."
He also told her in detail about the situation of Gu Dexing's family and the Chen family.
"You have seen how his aunt is. She may not be that bad, but she is too fierce. If you marry her, you will have to deal with such a person for the next few decades. She is an elder. If she bullies you, you still have to deal with her. You have to endure it.
There is no shortage of nieces-in-law who were abused by their uncles and mothers-in-law in Dachu. Some nieces-in-law have been angry with their uncles-in-law and mothers-in-law all their lives, and their lives have been miserable.
Xu Zhong laughed after hearing this, nodded slightly, and answered Lu's previous question: "Mom, my daughter is really willing to marry Gu Dexing. He is a good candidate."
She blushed for a while, and after the heat on her face subsided, she continued: "I know my mother's worries, but my daughter has never thought about becoming an official wife. In the future, if she can become an official, she will do it. If she can't, there will be someone else. With a reputation as a scholar, you can live a good life in the county. And I heard that the Qin Gu Luotian family has strict family upbringing, and no children from those families go to the building to have fun, let alone go to the gambling house for entertainment. . As long as there are no such problems, it will not be a loss for the daughter to marry."
Many wealthy families in the county have been to houses and gambling houses, and some even lost their ancestral homes.
Then talking about Mrs. Chen: "Although Aunt Gu seems to be fierce and tough, she is a protector of shortcomings. When she scolded Sister Ling today, most of what she said was to defend Gu Dexing. For an aunt to be able to protect her nephew like this, I think He is not a bad person, and my daughter believes that Aunt Gu will not bully her daughter based on her seniority."
"Besides, my daughter is not a fool. If she really bullies her, she won't let her go and will find a way to deal with it. Don't worry, mother."
Xu Zhong was very sensible at a young age. He knew how to act based on his boss's face. He was also a good person and never had conflicts with others. But she is not a soft persimmon. On the contrary, she can use her brain. If she really can't bear it anymore, she will find a way to save herself.
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu looked at her daughter's face and saw that she didn't look reluctant. She was relieved, but she still asked: "You don't want to be an official's wife, but because of the Tong family's affairs?"
The Tong family is from Jiangnan. Twenty years ago, Mr. Xu took the eldest son of the Xu family to Jiangnan to open a shop and met Mr. Tong. Seeing that Mr. Tong was very talented, Mr. Xu helped Mr. Tong with the idea that the more support he could provide, the more he would have a way out, so that Mr. Tong could continue his studies. In the end, Mr. Tong was admitted to Jinshi and became an official.
The Tong family was grateful. They had said at that time that they wanted their son to marry Mr. Xu's granddaughter as their first wife. Xu Ling had not yet been born at that time. Mr. Xu was afraid that the Tong family would regret it, so he told Xu Zhong and even changed the tokens.
But in the end, the son of the Tong family married a lady from an official family. They got married three years ago, and now the son can walk.
Fortunately, the marriage between the two families was only agreed upon verbally, and they did not go to the Yamen to register and receive a letter of appointment. Otherwise, her good daughter would have the reputation of being annulled.
Mr. Lu cried countless times because of this matter. She always felt that her daughter's life was miserable.
Mr. Xu was also very angry, but the Tong family was already an official. Although he was a minor official, the Xu family did not dare to go against the official. They could only hold back their anger and did not dare to cause trouble to the Tong family.
Mrs. Lu was afraid that Xu Zhong would be disturbed by this incident and no longer wanted to be an official's wife.
Xu Zhong was stunned after hearing this and laughed: "Mom, if you didn't mention Tong's family, I would have almost forgotten his family."
I almost forgot about this old incident.
Then he said: "The things about the Tong family are just words and cannot be taken seriously. Moreover, my daughter has never met the Tong family... In fact, it can be seen from the fact that the Tong family does not allow the Tong family to visit our house. "The Tong family has never thought about fulfilling this marriage. They have treated our family coldly for many years. They just want grandpa to see the reality clearly so that he can exchange the token back." In the end, grandpa also woke up and took the initiative to exchange the token, so the two families did not They broke up with each other, and the Tong family felt they owed the Xu family how much they had taken care of the Xu family's business in Jiangnan.
Xu Zhongdao: "Mom, although my daughter is not smart, she knows that she shouldn't feel sad for people she has never met. My daughter has never been sad because of the Tong family."
She has always felt that it was impossible for her to marry into the Tong family. She never regarded the Tong family as her future husband's family. How could she be sad? On the contrary, I feel a little lucky. I feel lucky that I saw the true face of the Tong family before getting married. Otherwise, when she gets married, she will be tortured to death.
She knew that it was nothing new for officials to molest their daughter-in-law, who had died of illness and had a bad family background.
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu shed tears: "Linglong, my dear, I have suffered so much for you."
Xu Zhong took out a handkerchief to wipe Mrs. Lu's tears and said with a smile: "Mom, don't cry. Gu Dexing's family is very good, let him be the one. You believe in your daughter, she will live a good life."
He then smiled and said, "Maybe if Gu Dexing succeeds, my daughter can become the wife of a Shangguan official and earn face for you."
After hearing this, Mrs. Lu cried even harder. Sometimes she really wanted Linglong to be as unruly as Ling Yatou, and stop being so sensible. If you are too sensible, you will always be wronged.
Mrs. Lu cried for a while, put away her tears and said, "Don't worry, Linglong, mother will definitely handle this matter well and let Gu Dexing come to our house to propose marriage."
Although it was her family who first fell in love with Gu Dexing, Mrs. Lu didn't want her family to talk about marriage first. She had been managing the family's affairs for many years, so she naturally had some skills. With one or two tricks, she could get Gu Dexing's family to come to her.
In short, her family cannot lose their reserve and let Linglong be underestimated by the Gu Dexing family.
After Lu made up her mind, she began to prepare a generous gift to go to Gu's family tomorrow to apologize. She prepared two gifts, one for Gu Jin'an's family and one for Chen's family. She had already made excuses for the one for Chen's family. He said that he was apologizing to the spiritual girl.
Ms. Chen didnt know that because of her trouble today, she gave Gu Dexing a daughter-in-law.
She was scolding Xu Ling after finishing her meal at Luo's Escort Bureau: "I have never seen such a rude girl, scolding me in front of a room of elders, who am I? She was scolded by her. How can you remain silent? You scolded her until she fainted."
He said very proudly: "When I saw her fainting, I didn't know how happy I was, but I felt so comfortable!"
After scolding Xu Ling, he began to worry about Gu Dexing's marriage: "We are already twenty-two years old. If we don't hurry up and say goodbye, we will really be gossiped by shrews from all over the country."
Mrs. Chu said: "Why are you anxious? Brother Xing is already a child. Do you believe that when he returns to the village this time, girls from all over the country will definitely come to your door. Are you still worried that he can't get a wife?"
