Chapter 126 Inquiry
When Pei Peng was reminded by the letter from the Cheng family, she suddenly remembered that yes, the group of children around her were actually of marriageable age.

Fortunately for Cheng Fei, the Cheng family really cared about her marriage. The Cheng family depended on Pei Peng for a living, and Cheng Fei followed Pei Peng's side, so as long as Pei Peng had an opinion, the Cheng family would not force it forward.

Or some people who are not as powerful as Pei Peng want to get in touch with Pei Peng through Cheng Fei. If they have ideas about Cheng Fei, they can't get around Pei Peng.

Therefore, Pei Peng only thought for a moment, and said to Cheng Fei:
"Forget it, you don't need to worry about this matter, and you don't need to mention the reply letter. I'll talk to them."

Cheng Fei responded cheerfully:
"Okay, then I don't care. Cousin, I don't think about these before the age of 20. After the age of 20, if there is no father, no mother, no relatives, no family, good temper and can work, it is best to be willing to marry. You can keep an eye on it for me."

Pei Pengxin asked what kind of request this was. The six relatives were in conflict with each other and their fate was so tough. But this was the candidate Cheng Fei wanted to find?
But it's just a marriage...

Pei Peng was quite tempted. Just as Cheng Fei thought, she was really not generous enough to let Cheng Fei marry into a certain family and then reveal the affairs in the princess's mansion, so it was best to choose someone for Cheng Fei internally.

But Cheng Fei's idea of ​​becoming a son-in-law made Pei Peng suddenly enlightened. Fei wants to find someone to marry into, but he's afraid there will be a lot of resistance.

Unless there is really no other way, Pei Peng doesn't want to ruin Cheng Fei's lifelong marriage.

Keeping the thought of becoming a parent in mind, Pei Peng didn't ask what the term "six relatives restrain each other" was. Cheng Fei always had some weird thoughts, but usually only for a while.

Since the marriage has been postponed for several years, Pei Peng didn't want to bother listening to Cheng Fei's nonsense.

"Okay, okay, I'll keep an eye on it for you, and you can also keep an eye on it. If you think there is a suitable candidate, tell me quietly."

Cheng Fei's matter was easy to solve, but Pei Peng still frowned, because there were Xu Shu, Xu Zhao, and Chen Song who were about the same age as Cheng Fei.

Xu Zhao, it is inconvenient for Pei Peng to intervene in his marriage. After all, his parents are there, as well as his grandmother and uncle, and the patriarch. His uncle can also speak, so it is difficult for Pei Peng to turn.

If Pei Peng is just the lord that Xu Zhao is willing to follow and the Xu family agrees with, then she can be said to value Xu Zhao's marriage, but her relationship with the Xu family...

So you still have to ask Xu Zhao's parents, their attitude can determine more than half of the outcome.

It is best to find a lady from a scholarly family who is indifferent to fame and wealth and lives in peace, without getting involved in too many foreign affairs, and not influencing Xu Zhao's choice.

Only in this way can Pei Peng feel more at ease with Xu Zhao. If her mother-in-law and second uncle go to find her, it will be hard to say, and it is no different from burying nails by her side.

Pei Peng casually flipped through the booklet recording special dates, his eyes flicked across the records of the past two months, and found that more than a month later, it was the birthday of Xu Zhao's maternal uncle.

Pei Peng didn't have much contact with their family. Because of their in-law relationship, every time Pei Peng's family celebrated their birthdays, the family would send gifts politely, and Pei Peng was actually the same. At the birthday banquet of Xu Zhao's maternal grandparents, Pei Peng also Will send someone to give gifts.

Although Xu Zhao's uncles celebrate their birthdays, Pei Peng has never been interested in them, but this time it is not strange to send someone to celebrate their birthdays. After all, the old man in charge has passed away, and it is also very convenient for Pei Peng to increase his contacts with the next generation. It's normal, then find someone you can trust to go there.

At that time, Xu Zhao's parents will definitely go there, and you can tell them what you want.

Xu Zhao's affairs were more troublesome, but it was easier for Chen Song.

The Chen family will probably not care about Chen Song's affairs in the next few years. As for Chen Song's brother and sister, they didn't care much about this younger brother before. They only sent people to deliver letters and some belongings, so they will no longer be qualified to care about him in the future. .

Cao Shao really wanted to call the shots, but he was not as good as Pei Peng when he came forward.

The only person who could influence Chen Song's marriage was Pei Wei, who was both an uncle and an emperor, but Chen Song's marriage could not be used as a favor or to win people over now.

Therefore, Chen Song's marriage is also in his own hands.

Pei Peng went through this again and felt more at ease.

That's all for Xu Zhao, the importance of Xu Shu and Chen Song is self-evident, Pei Peng will not allow them to leave his side because of their marriage.

It seems that the candidates for their early marriage must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

But Xu Shu was undoubtedly the one who really worried Pei Peng.

Li Chunhua, who is the same age as Xu Shu and Xu Xiao's daughter, has already agreed on a marriage with the Wang family and will get married next year.Wang Shu, who is two years older than Xu Shu, has now secured her position as queen.

If it wasn't for the complicated situation, Pei Peng actually didn't want to think about her daughter's marriage so early.

On the one hand, she was afraid that her daughter's age would be fooled by others. What if she got married and the relationship between the couple grew stronger, and Xu Shu lost her head for a while, and gave up her power and wealth?She can't watch Xu Shu for the rest of her life. If she sees her son-in-law holding her things and trapping her daughter in the back house, she will be so angry that she will jump out of the underground palace.

So later, she will teach Xu Shu more, let Xu Shu feel the power of money and power, so that she will not throw them away so easily.

On the other hand, Pei Peng also heard Cheng Fei say that it is not good for girls to get pregnant if they get married too early.

Pei Peng didn't believe it at first, her aunt was elected to the palace at the age of 13, she was born at the age of 15, and she gave birth to Xu Shu at the age of 17 later, all went smoothly.

Of course, there are many women who have misfortunes during childbirth, but it seems that many older women who have given birth did not survive.

But Cheng Fei seldom lied to others in business affairs, and Cheng Fei's expression was very serious at the time, Pei Peng also kept an eye out and asked people to inquire.

What we have learned so far is that women under the age of 20 have a high chance of dystocia, and even if the mother and child are safe, the physical damage during delivery will be serious.

Children born to young parents are often the first or second child, and they are more likely to be unable to support their children than the third and subsequent children.

Pei Peng also made people pay attention to the marriage and childbirth of the children of the doctor's family. Surprisingly, among these families, the marriages are indeed later. I feel sorry for my daughter, and I will marry her at the age of fifteen or sixteen, and some doctors will stay at the age of 20.

Of course, they often make their marriage arrangements at the age of fifteen or sixteen, but they are not in a hurry to proceed to the next step.

It is also for this reason that medical families often marry each other.I don't know if they have their own way of conditioning their bodies, or if delaying the age of childbearing really works, the children of these families are indeed better to raise.

Pei Peng also specifically asked the doctor at her house if he had such a theory, and got a positive answer.

After making inquiries like this, Pei Peng became more inclined to delay Xu Shu's marriage.

However, that's what she thought. Xu Shu didn't show any signs of falling in love at the moment, and not everyone was willing to give them time.

Xu Xiao's reminder some time ago has already proved this point, and there were indeed some people who secretly inquired about it later, and Pei Peng declined, but the decline is not the end, Pei Peng believes that there will always be people who are unwilling to give up.

Especially in this current situation.

The relationship between Pei Peng and Pei Wei had cooled down. Even though she and Pei Wei didn't show it, she still wrote to Pei Wei regularly, concerned about the condition of the pregnant concubine, and sent him local products, but there were some changes. People are always more perceptible.

Also, Pei Peng made money.

Don't think that wealthy families and nobles don't love money. They just don't love money that needs to be earned by themselves, because that's called "vulgar".

And if it relies on the investment of merchants and farmers, relying on business secrets, and buying land, they do not need to do these things themselves anyway, but the money will continue to come, and they are very willing to do so.

Therefore, Pei Peng has a recipe for wine making, and Pei Peng has only one daughter, which undoubtedly became Xu Shu's extra points in the marriage.

Pei Peng had to find a way to dissuade them before they persuaded Pei Wei to intervene in Xu Shu's marriage.

The most direct thing is to decide on Xu Shu's marriage, but this is difficult.

Pei Peng wanted Xu Shu to guard the house, but it was not so easy to find a suitable candidate, and it was not so easy to trust her when he found her.

But Pei Peng didn't dare to let this rumor out. Once the conditions were settled, if someone really offered such a candidate and got Pei Wei's consent, it would be very difficult for Pei Peng to refuse for Xu Shu.

Although it is easier for a son-in-law who is married than an ordinary son-in-law to deal with it, it is also hurtful and will affect Xu Shu's reputation.

Pei Peng sighed, how difficult it is.

She is a princess, and Xu Shu is a princess. They have titles, servants, and parts. Such identities allow them to accept the kneeling of many people. These people can protect them and escape smoothly in a small battle.

But in the eyes of people of the same level as them, or even one level lower than them, just because Xu Shu is a daughter, it is wishful thinking for the mother and daughter to keep the family business. They can hope to use some means to tear a big piece from them Meat, and they are easily able to succeed.

A few years ago, Pei Peng would also think that if Xu Shu was a son, then Pei Peng would not be so passive when facing the Xu family, the late emperor and Pei Wei.But she is very unwilling, obviously her daughter is so good, why is she considered unable to be the master of the family just because she is not a son?
Pei Peng tapped his finger on the desk case again and again, meditating.So I still have to work hard, try to get more money and power, and try to make more people's interests consistent with her, so that they will compromise, and compromise to let the two women be the masters of the house.

And some people did not live up to Pei Peng's expectations. There were indeed people in the capital who were eager to get Xu Shu's idea.

In fact, there have been quite a few people who have been making up Xu Shu's mind.

It's funny, even the Yin family, which relies on their daughter to get out of the circle, actually thought about it, but before their delusions reached Pei Peng's ears, someone made the Yin family realize the reality.

But the Yin family can't do it. Naturally, some people think they can.

Therefore, during this period of time, a small Chengyang County that many people can't find on the map has become the object of attention because of the wine that Pei Peng transported to the capital.

The shops opened by each family in Taizhou, the spies they left behind, and the acquaintances of their in-laws all became windows for them to inquire about the situation of Princess Chengyang's mansion.

Therefore, there are more and more strangers coming to Chengyang County from other places these days.

Not only do they have thoughts about Xu Shu, many businessmen also have thoughts about Pei Peng's home-brewed wine, and these businessmen may also have the duty of inquiring information in addition to buying wine.

It is a good thing that there are many foreigners.

When people come, they always have to stay, they always have to go to teahouses and restaurants, they always have to go to places where fireworks are played, they always have to find a place to store their carriages, oxcarts, mules and donkeys, and they always have to feed these livestock with fodder.

As a result, many people in the city were mobilized, and more and more people set up stalls on the street to sell pickled vegetables, dry goods, and ready-made snacks. For a while, the sound of yelling and conversation enveloped the whole building along with the white air between everyone's breaths. over the city.

And those women, children, and the elderly who are inconvenient to go out to set up stalls also have things to do, such as starching and washing clothes for travelers, or cleaning livestock for them, or some older children wander around on the road and run errands for them.Even those who pour Yexiang have had a bumper harvest recently.

"Okay! Okay! Chengyang County hasn't been so lively in a few years, haha."

Magistrate Zhou laughed and asked the county magistrate next to him while stroking his beard.

The other party is also a local householder, and he slandered in his heart. You said this, since you came to Chengyang County, have you ever seen such a lively time?

This is not to say that the magistrate of Zhou County did not do well in Chengyang County and caused the people to have no life, mainly because of the geographical location and economic level of Chengyang County, except for the possibility of foreign invasion, there is no chance of such intensive population in a period of time. Outsiders were received, even the inns in the county were full, and some ordinary people's houses were rented out.

However, County Magistrate Zhou soon discovered that something was not quite right.

These foreign guests were attracted by Pei Peng's wine, which Magistrate Zhou had expected, but he also found that some people did not seem to come here just to buy wine.

His eldest son Zhou Xu went to a teahouse to have snacks with his friends one day - these friends were living in Pei Peng's princess mansion during the same period. The peers who worked together included civil servants and military attaches. At home, they got along well during that time, and then they continued their friendship and played together from time to time.

These children are actually not familiar with Pei Peng, because Pei Peng was not there when the accident happened in Chengyang County, but they have a good impression of Xu Shu, and are very grateful for the hospitality of the princess mansion during that time.

Therefore, in the teahouse, when I heard the guests at the next table asking about Xu Shu, I couldn't help but start talking to them.

The people came here for Xu Shu's marriage. Their master wanted to marry Xu Shu in for their son, but they were afraid that Xu Shu was a princess daughter and would be pampered. After all, Xu Shu was never quiet and restrained when she was in the capital. My lady, now in Chengyang County, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, I am afraid that she will be even more disrespectful.

 Thanks to Aoba 021 for the monthly pass.I have recently carefully studied the benefits of the starting point, and found that I have successfully missed the perfect attendance award, and the free period is too random. I haven't updated it for several days, and then I don't meet the requirements.It's really stupid, I'm speechless to myself, and I feel farther and farther away from the wish in my pseudonym.
