Farmer's happy event

Chapter 357
Matchmaker Wang lamented the good weather these past few days while putting on her jacket.

Later, I will go to the Su Mansion to help them prepare all the things they need to get married.I made an agreement with Mrs. Su yesterday, and she will go over early this morning.

After ordering the man at home, she was going out.

Unexpectedly, just as she was about to open the door, she suddenly heard the door being slammed from the outside.

This time, Matchmaker Wang was startled, she hurriedly patted her chest, and said: "My dear, you are so scared to death."

"Open it," Wang Matchmaker said, and opened the door.

After the door opened, she saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl standing outside the door, with double dolls on her hair, a smoky green flowered jacket, and water red embroidered cloth shoes on her feet.

"Hey, why is this big sister here?" Matchmaker Wang asked with a smile.

Looking at the girl's dress, she looks like a maid, and in Cangshan County, if the family can afford a maid, it must be not an ordinary family. No matter whether she knows this girl or not, she must treat it carefully.

"Excuse me, is this the home of Mrs. Wang who is the matchmaker?" the girl asked.

Matchmaker Wang nodded and replied, "Yes, yes, it's me."

When the girl heard the words, she smiled and said: "That's just right, our wife invites Mrs. Wang to go."

Matchmaker Wang was about to agree, but suddenly remembered that she was going to the Su Mansion.But I don't know why the madam in this girl's mouth invited her to go there. If it doesn't waste much time, it's okay for her to go first.

"I don't know which family the eldest sister belongs to?" Wang Matchmaker asked.

The girl smiled and said, "I belong to Master Lu's family."

That's terrible, there is only one official with the surname Lu in the entire Cangshan Mountain, except for the county magistrate Lu Jingxing, there is no one else.Although Jiupin county magistrate is not a high-ranking official, he is a parent's official after all, so he cannot be easily offended.

It's just that she had already agreed to the matter of the Su Mansion, so it was really difficult for a while.

"Ma'am, my wife just wants to talk to you, so I won't waste your time." The girl smiled.

Madam gave instructions when she came here, saying that the happy event in the Su residence was coming, she was afraid that the matchmaker would not be free, so she taught the girl to say so.

Matchmaker Wang thought about it, if that's the case, then go to the yamen first, have a few words with the magistrate's wife, and then go to the Su's house, it's the same.It's still early and there's still time.

Therefore, Matchmaker Wang turned a corner first and followed the girl to the county government office.

Along the way, she was thinking in her heart, Madam Zhixian had never looked for her before, but now she suddenly looked for her, why?Is it also for matchmaking?
She remembered that among the three children in Mrs. Lu's family, one of them seemed to be of marriageable age.

It stands to reason that such an official family like theirs usually does not need their matchmakers to talk about marriage with girls, but the situation in Mr. Lu's family is a bit special.

Today's Madam Lu is not Mrs. Lu's original partner.

Master Lu's first wife passed away due to illness many years ago, leaving only one daughter, who seems to have reached the age of maturity now.Today's Mrs. Lu is a continuation. After getting married, she gave birth to a son and a daughter.My daughter is eleven or twelve years old this year, and my son should be five or six years old.

Matchmaker Wang speculated that Mrs. Lu asked her to go, probably for the marriage of her eldest daughter.After all, it's not my own birth, so I'm sure I won't be very concerned about the marriage.

Followed the girl all the way to the county government office, and went directly to Mrs. Lu's room.

"Madam, all blessings." Matchmaker Wang bowed and saluted.

Mrs. Lu hurriedly helped her up, and said, "You don't need to be polite, Sister, please sit down."

Matchmaker Wang asked to sit down, and then sat down on the chair below.

"Knowing that Nanny has a lot of things to do, it's really not easy to invite you here." Mrs. Lu said.

Matchmaker Wang hurriedly said, "How dare you?" She saw that Mrs. Lu had a good description, she looked very kind, and her demeanor was graceful, she definitely didn't look like that kind of harsh stepmother.

"I heard that the marriage of the Su family was made by the mother," Madam Lu said with a smile, "it's really a great contribution."

Matchmaker Wang hurriedly smiled and said: "Where is it, the eldest young master of the Su family and the Lianzi girl are really a match made in heaven, I just ran errands for it, and I really can't take credit for it."

The Su family's marriage was not arranged by her.At the beginning, it was just the old lady of the Su family who came to her to talk about things, but she was really blind and arrogant.

"Anyway, Mammy is indispensable." Mrs. Lu laughed again.

Seeing that she didn't have the slightest airs, Matchmaker Wang gradually opened her heart.

Then, I heard her say again: "I don't know what's going on now?"

"The wedding date has been set, it's on NO.20 of this month, it's a little tight, but the young master will go to work after the new year, so that's the only way to go."

Mrs. Lu nodded and remained silent for a while, then she looked at Matchmaker Wang and said, "To tell you the truth, I've asked you to come here this time. I really want to ask you for help with something."

"What are you talking about madam? If there is anything wrong, just talk to my old lady."

Madam Lu smiled embarrassingly. It was really not easy to talk about that matter.

"It's like this, my eldest daughter is now sixteen, and she's about to get married," Madam Lu said.

Matchmaker Wang said in her heart that sure enough, it was really for the big girl's marriage.

She was proud of herself, but she heard Mrs. Lu say again: "It's just that the eldest girl of my family has stopped thinking about eating and drinking since she met the young master of the Su family in Su's mansion that day."

Matchmaker Wang was a little embarrassed when she heard the words. For a girl, this is really not a good thing.

"Although I'm not her own mother, but for more than ten years, I have treated her as my own daughter. Seeing her lose weight day by day, I feel uncomfortable in my heart," Madam Lu continued. , "Last night, I also discussed with my family's adults. If possible, I will marry my family's eldest daughter as well."

Matchmaker Wang's eyes widened, marrying the eldest girl from County Magistrate Lu's family to Su Keyan?Although she lost her mother, she is also the legitimate eldest daughter of the Lu family. How can she be a concubine?
She thought about it, and instantly rejected the idea.Except for the royal family or the family of high officials in Beijing, how can there be any reason for a girl from an official family to be a concubine?

"Then what do you mean by your lord and madam, is to give the young miss to the Su family as an equal wife?" Wang Matchmaker asked.

As an official media, she has been walking in this circle all year round, so she naturally understands the truth of it.

Su Mu'an is only a fifth-rank magistrate. Although Su Keyan was selected as a Beijing official, in terms of official rank, he is much lower than his father.The eldest daughter of the county magistrate of Lu, there is no reason to be a concubine for the Su family, she must want to be an equal wife.

"No", Mrs. Lu said, sighing, "My lord and I really can't bear to see the girl depressed like this, even if she is a concubine, we will admit it."

After she finished speaking, she added: "However, if I can be an equal wife, I will definitely prepare a generous gift and come to the door to thank the mother."

Matchmaker Wang hurriedly said, "Don't dare."

Not only did she dare not let the county magistrate's wife come to the door in person, but more importantly, she was afraid of that eldest sister.

She has a deep understanding of Lianzi's character and temper, and she has suffered several times, let alone a flat wife, even if she is a concubine, I am afraid that she will not agree.Send one, and she will definitely be able to type one.

What's worse is that Su Keyan and Lianzi are the most united, and he will definitely listen to her words.If she doesn't agree, then no matter what, it won't help.

Matchmaker Wang knew the serious relationship, and told Mrs. Lu truthfully.

Mrs. Lu sighed again, and said, "My poor girl, is the road after this really going to be like this?"

In the eyes of Matchmaker Wang, she looked so sincere that she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Nurse," Mrs. Lu looked at Matchmaker Wang and said, "I'm afraid that people will say that I'm a stepmother, that I won't be sincere to my original daughter and won't fight for her."

Matchmaker Wang is also in a dilemma. This is simply impossible. If she agrees at this time and the matter is not completed, not only will she offend this side, but also offend Lianzi's side.She really didn't want to learn from that girl's temper.

Mrs. Lu said that, paused for a moment, and then said: "Nurse, I have seen that Lianzi girl before, she looks soft and docile, she doesn't look like a shrew like that. Besides, a man with three wives Four concubines, this is a very common thing, after the young master arrives in the capital, he will definitely take another concubine in the future. Our eldest girl has a good temper, and she is the main wife, so I will definitely take good care of her in the future."

Matchmaker Wang doesn't think so, that girl looks soft and docile, but if she becomes not compliant, it will kill her.

But after thinking about it carefully, what she said seems to be the same thing. When Su Keyan goes to the capital, he must take another concubine.In the officialdom, those who don't have one or two concubines at home will be laughed at by others.At that time, no matter how tough that girl is, she might not be able to stop her.

Instead of being in a passive position at that time, it is better to let go at this time, and there can be an alliance in the future.

However, when Matchmaker Wang thought of the way Lianzi beat her out of the house with a broom bump, she felt apprehensive again.This girl, once she loses her temper, she doesn't care about the past and the future, no matter what others say, as long as it's something she has determined, then no matter what others say, it will be useless.

Seeing Mrs. Lu's sincere expression, she couldn't bear to refuse, and she couldn't refuse.But if you agree, this matter is not easy to handle.

Matchmaker Wang was really embarrassed.

"Mommy, what do you think should be done?" Mrs. Lu frowned again and asked.

When she asked this question, Matchmaker Wang became even more anxious.

"Ma'am, this, this—"

However, in an instant, she suddenly thought of a good way.
