The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 105 Marriage (1)
Seeing that Zhao Jing was not in good spirits, Yuan Shi felt a little worried, but she couldn't ask.The sister-in-law and the sister-in-law returned home along the way, Zhao Jing was already sweating, she turned her head to Yuan Shi reluctantly and said: "Sister-in-law, the princess is not in good health, I served her for half the night last night, and I am a little sleepy now , go back to bed first, sister-in-law doesn't need to call me for dinner."

Yuan Shi nodded in agreement, and watched Zhao Jing enter the room, she was about to go back to the room to tell Zhao Yong about Zhao Jing's return, when she suddenly remembered that there was no charcoal fire in Zhao Jing's room, the room must be very cold after being empty for a day.

Yuan Shi then turned around and went into Zhao Jing's room to get a charcoal basin. She saw Zhao Jing took off her padded jacket and leaned on the bed frame, her face was very pale, Yuan Shi couldn't help asking: "Sister, are you sick?" ? Or I'll call your brother up and find you a doctor?"

Zhao Jing was leaning on the bed in a daze, but when she saw Yuan Shi coming in again, she shook her head and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I'm not sick, I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine after a night of sleep."

Yuan Shi went out with hesitation, she originally wanted to wait for Zhao Jing to come back and talk to her about business, but the Shen family sent a matchmaker to ask if the marriage could be settled, now she just waited for Zhao Jing to nod.But seeing Zhao Jing's scene, Yuan couldn't ask, so she could only wait and say.

Yuan Shi built a charcoal stove in the yard, and moved it in with a thick cotton cloth. She saw that Zhao Jing was already lying down, as if she was asleep. After finishing the quilt, he stretched out his hand to touch his forehead, and seeing that he didn't have a fever, he closed the door and went out.

Zhao Yong slept until dark and didn't get up. Yuan Shi had already prepared dinner, and the whole family gathered around to eat.Zhao Yong was worried about Zhao Jing, but she was sleeping in the room, so he was too embarrassed to go in and see her, so he asked Yuan Shi, "Did you really say you don't need to call her for dinner?"

Zhao Erhu on the side also blinked and asked, "Mother, will you be hungry if you don't eat dinner?"

While filling the meals for them, Yuan said: "My sister didn't look very energetic when she came back. I was afraid that she might be ill, so I went in to have a look, but she didn't have a fever. She's finally sleeping peacefully now, so let's take a look at it." Let her sleep a little longer."

Zhao Yong remained silent with a sullen face. After thinking for a while, he said: "Then what kind of palace is really real. The girl is still a big girl of Huanghua. If she asks people to stay, she will let people stay. What kind of regent king..." Zhao Yong thought of the day when the regent Wang looked a little scared in his heart, so he didn't continue, but said to Yuan Shi: "You can go into the house later to see my sister, if she wakes up, you can give her a bowl of noodles to eat, you can't Sleep all night on an empty stomach."

Yuan Shi responded with a smile, raised her head and asked Zhao Yong: "The Shen family has asked a matchmaker to ask again. If you don't have any opinions, I will ask my sister tomorrow. If she is willing to marry, we can also give her a letter of approval." Son."

Zhao Yong frowned and nodded, and told Yuan Shi: "If the girl doesn't want to, don't try to persuade her. The twisted melon is not sweet. The girl has only been out of the palace for a few days, and we want to marry her. I know you have good intentions, but the neighbors don't know where they are, and they think it's because we dislike the girl and live at home."

Yuan Shi was anxious when she heard this, but felt that it made sense, so she sighed and said: "As long as you understand my thoughts, we don't care what others say. When my sister gets married in the future and becomes a young mistress, Is it too late for them to be envious?"

Zhao Yong felt it made sense, so he said with a smile: "Then it's up to you."

Zhao Jing fell asleep and woke up at this time, her room was next to the main room, she could hear Zhao Yong and Yuan Shi's words clearly.Zhao Jing closed her eyes and carefully thought about the recent events. Zhao Yong and Yuan Shi lived a peaceful life before, except that there was a girl who worked in the palace at home, so there seemed to be nothing special about it.But ever since she left the palace, Uncle Guo has visited the door, and she finally went out of the city to visit the tomb, and even met the regent, which was a big deal for ordinary people like them.

It is not easy for ordinary people to live in peace and stability. What they are most afraid of is offending the powerful. If she is still living in this house like this, she may implicate them one day.Zhao Jing blamed herself a little, she was too tired to lie down and think about things, she leaned up from the bed, thinking about Yuan Shi's words carefully.

Although Shen Congcai is a widower and has two children under his knees, he is indeed a standard match for an affordable man.Zhao Jing is now 25, if she wants to find someone to marry, she may not be a good choice because of her age.It is really hard to find a man who is not married at 25 these days with a lantern.Since there is no other choice, it can only choose the best option.Fortunately, in terms of age, she and Shen Congcai are still a good match.
