Buddhist palace maids want to be rich

Chapter 42 Whispers
Here, matchmaker Zhu had just left before Uncle He closed the door.

Over there, Chu Mufeng, who was pulled by Chu Tiankuo, broke free from the restraint with all his strength, and rushed out of the small study in a hurry.

"Why is that weak scholar Wei Xiucai coming to find someone to talk about marriage? You see, he hasn't passed the exam for so long. I don't know how long he will have to take the exam?"

Chu Tiankuo came out from behind, and when he saw what Chu Mufeng said, he shook his head in disapproval.

"Sister Jiang, you have to think about it carefully. Not to mention that Wei Xiucai is powerless, his family's livelihood is also a problem. He has been relying on the little savings of his ancestors for so many years. The one who received the little money. If you really marry him, you will suffer a lot in the future." Chu Mufeng still said with unsatisfactory thoughts.

After being hit by Chu Tiankuo, Chu Mufeng still muttered in a low voice, "Marrying him is worse than marrying me."

After Chu Mufeng finished speaking, Jiang Zhixia and Chu Tiankuo stared at him in unison.

Chu Mufeng didn't care about their stares.

Jiang Zhixia stroked his forehead helplessly, not paying attention to the last sentence at all, "Brother Chu is worrying too much. I didn't say that I would agree to this marriage."

"You didn't agree to the marriage, why didn't you just refuse?" Chu Mufeng muttered.

"They are all neighbors, so there is no way to refuse directly. If you refuse directly today, how can you be a neighbor in the future?" Jiang Zhixia was also quite annoyed.

Therefore, Zhi Xia frowned and saluted others: "Young Master Chu, Big Brother Chu, I'm sorry, I can't keep you guys for dinner today. Please wait until another day. I'm really sorry."

Chu Tiankuo also knew that Zhixia was very troubled now, so he nodded without saying anything.

Only Chu Mufeng was still muttering there.

Chu Tiankuo frowned, pulled Chu Mufeng who was still about to say something, and said goodbye directly to Chu Mufeng's home.

Uncle He, Aunt Zhang and Xiaoman naturally didn't deliberately listen to what the master and the official media had to say, but the courtyard itself was not big, and Zhixia didn't tell them to back down, and Chu Mufeng's voice later on was also disturbing. It's not young, so I heard that the Wei family asked the official media to come to talk about their marriage.

They were very surprised when they heard that Mrs. Li had invited the official media to make a marriage proposal. They didn't know about the neighbors. It's been almost four months. Why did they suddenly think of inviting someone to propose?

In the Wei family next door, Wei Zhuxian also asked his mother, Aunt Li, the same question.

Aunt Li sighed leisurely, frowned and looked at her son, quite embarrassed, not knowing whether to tell the truth.

When Wei Zhuxian saw Aunt Li's appearance, he presumed that it had something to do with his scientific examination.

Fortunately, after drinking and persuading Chu Mufeng's house, he thought about it, and he would go to participate in Qiu Wei after three years at most.

There are also those who have been in the exam for a lifetime, but only passed the exam when they were five or sixty years old.I am still young after all.

"Mother, if you have anything to say, you might as well tell your son directly. Is there anything we are hiding between mother and son?" Wei Zhuxian persuaded.

Aunt Li saw that her son had really opened up a lot recently, and she was willing to go out to meet friends, and after hearing what he said, she simply said openly: "Son, since this is the case, I should tell the truth as a mother. "

"Mother regrets, I regret that I made a marriage for you early." Aunt Li burst into tears. Seeing this scene, Wei Zhuxian quickly took a handkerchief to wipe Aunt Li's tears and comforted her.

"At the beginning, when you were 19 years old, you passed the examination as a scholar. Who doesn't praise you for being young and promising, and you have a bright future? The two families have always thought that you will get married as soon as you are a scholar. How can you think that your fiancée will be married?" Are you sick?" Aunt Li ramblingly recalled the past.

The more I think about it, the more I want to cry, "You said that scholars should be benevolent and righteous, so your fiancée's family wants to withdraw from the marriage, and you don't agree. Well, this matter is my mother's favor, and I didn't say much. Your fiancée has been in bed for more than two years. In the end, it’s time to go, but it dragged you down to the age of 21. You said that scholars value reputation, and you have to keep a filial piety for your fiancée for a year, and you just concentrate on your studies so that you can participate in Qiu Wei, and your mother will follow you. Later, You took part in the last Autumn Festival, but you got sick from the cold, and you were carried out halfway, and you didn’t finish the exam. You were holding a breath in your heart, and you must have participated in this year’s Autumn Festival before talking about other things. Mother also agreed to you So, I have not told you about marriage according to your wish. However, this year you failed the exam again..."

The more Aunt Li said, the more sad she became, "You will be 25 this year, if you drag on..."

"Mother, don't cry," Wei Zhuxian comforted. Thinking of the last time he participated in Qiu Wei, he always felt that he would be able to pass because of his illness, and he was really holding his breath.

"Didn't I promise to marry you? Didn't mother ask Aunt Zhu to find a marriage for me? It's just that Miss Jiang has moved here for so long, why did mother suddenly think of going to her place to propose marriage?" Wei Zhuxian asked quickly, changing the subject.

"Oh, I didn't think about her at first, after all, she is quite old." Aunt Li said with a frown.

Although Miss Jiang is good in everything, but she is really not young. She is 22 this year, and she will be 23 in the new year.

"However, I asked your aunt Zhu to inquire about a few families. Either it is inappropriate in this aspect or that aspect. After all, your age is not young. If you pass the Juren examination this year, no matter you can do it next spring If you can't pass the Jinshi exam, you are qualified to be an official. If that's the case, you can find a good marriage, maybe you can marry a lady from an official family. But, you didn't pass the exam," Aunt Li looked at Wei Zhuxian's face, while saying.

Seeing that Wei Zhuxian's reaction was okay, he continued, "Your Aunt Zhu mentioned Miss Jiang when she came to chat with Mother last time. She said she was beautiful, tall, and friendly. There was also this house in the dowry." .At that time, if you get married, you can directly open up the house. It can be regarded as taking back the ancestral house. I heard that she still has a small village with more than ten acres of land. Although the harvest is not much, it is generally used for eating, drinking and chewing. But it's enough. It's just that I'm a little older."

Aunt Li said regretfully.

"This neighbor's neighbor, if it doesn't work, it will be so embarrassing to meet in the future..." Wei Zhuxian remembered Jiang Zhixia's beautiful face, and smiled shyly unconsciously.

After being a neighbor for so long, he actually has a good impression of this easy-going and friendly girl next door.

However, he frowned again when he remembered the consequences if he was rejected.

"How can this not work? My son was selected as a scholar at a young age. He is so talented. In the future, if he takes part in the imperial examination, it will be no problem if he wins the imperial examination. She will be the wife of an official. She How could she be so stupid to refuse? She is so old, if she doesn't marry you, she will marry someone else, how can she have a good family?" Aunt Li had blind confidence in her son.

Seeing the embarrassment on her son's face, Aunt Li then smiled and said, "Besides, I know you are very satisfied with Miss Jiang, right?"

After hearing his mother's ridicule, Wei Zhuxian couldn't help but blush into a red cloth.Saying goodbye in a hurry, said to go to the study to read a book and left.

　I concentrated on coding yesterday and didn't go to the website much, and I just noticed Shangqingyun's recommendation today.

　　Thank you, thank you.
