Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 207 You Lan Refuses Marriage and Leaves Home Alone (1)
There are also the third wives, Yao Shi and Rong Zhi, one of them is the aunt, and the other can represent Ji Mingzhong's opinion, it is about Ji Youlan's marriage, and they have to make a decision.

As for Aunt Zeng's part, Mrs. Ji just ignored it. If they made a marriage agreement, she should inform Aunt Zeng that she has no right to decide on the marriage of Ji's daughter.

After a while, the third wife Yao Shi and Rong Zhi rushed over, followed by Ji Chongze and Ji's grandma Yang Shi.

"No, Sister Yao and I happened to drink daughter-in-law's tea, so we asked the two of them to kowtow to the old lady."

Rong Zhi sat down in front of Mrs. Ji with a charming smile, she glanced at Mrs. Xie, and the corners of her lips curled up, "There is a happy event today!"

"Old lady, why are my aunts and sisters not here?"

Yao shi turned her head in surprise, she just wanted their aunts and sisters-in-law to meet each other, and they came here on time, why did this person disappear?

"I have something to do today, so I let them go down first."

The old lady Ji held her breath, and looked at Ji Chongze and Yang Shi with a smile. When she got up, she was polite, the old lady nodded, and said: "Kowtow, you can go down and do your work. We have few families, so we don't care about anything."

"Yes."

Mrs. Yang responded softly, and Zhihua put on the cushion, and the two of them knelt down and kowtowed three times. Mrs. Yang offered the bridal tea again, and presented her dark green hibiscus brocade embroidered shoes made by herself. Mr. Ji The wife praised her a lot and rewarded him with something else, and then the two juniors walked out together.

Only then did Mrs. Xie go forward to bow to Yao Shi and Rong Zhi, and said with a smile: "Little lady Xie is here to propose a marriage for the third girl, and the other party is Mr. Zhou, the magistrate of Xuzhou County. The old lady is not easy to make a decision, so I invite you Two ladies came over to hear back."

"Who is Mr. Zhou, magistrate of Xuzhou?"

Yao Shi was startled, with the same doubts as Mrs. Ji's in his eyes, Ji Youlan was also staying at home, especially after his face was injured, why did Lord Zhou propose to marry Ji Youlan this week?

Although Ji Youlan is not her own daughter, she is still the blood of the Ji family. She has never treated Aunt Zeng badly, so naturally she will not take Ji Youlan's lifelong happiness as a trifling matter.

If one is bad, not only Aunt Zeng will make a fuss, but Ji Mingzhong will definitely blame her too.

"Xie Niangzi will talk about the origin of Master Zhou this week, so we can weigh it up."

Rong Zhiqiao had a charming smile, her brilliance was dazzling, and it made people feel good about it just by looking at it.

Mrs. Xie squinted her eyes when she smiled, nodded hurriedly, and said frothyly: "Speaking of which, your Ji family is really blessed. This Mr. Zhou was originally the nephew of your second wife, Mrs. Lu. My son Zhou Yu, originally an orphan and widowed mother, stayed in Danyang for a few years. Later, I heard that the mother and son went to Beijing to take the exam, and now they are honored. Mr. Zhou is less than [-] years old this year, so he is a young talent. A good marriage is really hard to find even with a lantern!"

"It was him!"

Yao Shi vaguely remembered that there was such a person, and he had heard it mentioned before, but he had never met him in person, and he didn't know his appearance and character, so why did he just fall in love with the third girl of their family?

"Third wife has an impression?!"

Mrs. Xie smiled and clapped her hands, "Master Zhou is handsome, elegant and handsome. Anyone who has met him will not praise him! I heard that he came to Ji's house to congratulate him as soon as he returned to Danyang yesterday, and he just went to visit her aunt today. , it can be seen that he is especially concerned about your family!"

Mrs. Yao glanced at Mrs. Ji, seeing that the old lady just closed her eyes and was silent, she was not in a good mood, so she responded like this, and replied, "Let us think about this matter carefully."

"It should be."

Mrs. Xie nodded hurriedly, then stood up again, "Then don't disturb me, the little lady will come back in three days."

"Mother Song, thank you lady for me."

Only then did Old Madam Ji open her eyes. Mother Song politely led Mrs. Xie to go out. After getting off the corridor, she stuffed a purse for Mrs. Xie and said with a smile, "Thank you Mrs. Xie for your trouble!"

"Isn't this doing your duty, mom is too polite!"

With a twist of her wrist, Mrs. Xie stuffed the purse into her sleeve pocket, and asked Mama Song not to give any more, so she got on the soft sedan chair and carried it directly to the second door.

In the main room of Xuanyi Hall, Mrs. Ji didn't say a word, Mrs. Yao was a little nervous, and Rong Zhi was even more confused.

It stands to reason that it would be a good thing for a county magistrate to propose marriage to Ji Youlan, but Ji Youlan's face is a bit disfigured now, I don't know if Zhou Yu knows?
As a county magistrate, even if Zhou Yu was a poor student in the past, but now he can marry a prostitute daughter from a respectable family. Why would he marry a concubine daughter from a third-bedroom family? This makes people very suspicious.

"Old lady, take a look at this matter..." Yao said hesitantly, "I'll ask someone to inquire about Mr. Zhou's character before making a decision. Old lady, do you think this is okay?"

Only then did the old lady Ji slowly open her eyes, a stern look flashed in her eyes, and she said in a solemn voice, "Ask Aunt Zeng again, is it... is it that the third girl met Mrs. Zhou outside, and We all don't know... this matter needs to be clarified, I don't want the reputation of Miss Ji's family to be ruined by Sanya alone!"

Yao Shi nodded yes, and exchanged a glance with Rong Zhi, the panic in his eyes was fleeting.

The Qingqiu Pavilion was quiet, and the wind came in, blowing the green smoke in the incense burner, and the sweet and light smell instantly permeated every corner.

Ji Chonglian and Ji Furong sent Ji Youlan back to their garden, but they didn't leave for a while.

Seeing Ji Youlan crying silently, Ji Furong didn't get angry, stood in front of her with her hips akimbo, raised her eyebrows and said, "Third sister, this is a good thing, why are you crying?"

They originally wanted to find out Zhou Yu's thoughts, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary, this person has already come to propose marriage, what better thing than this?
"big sister!"

Ji Chonglian got up and took Ji Furong's hand, shaking her head slightly, "We are not the third sister, I'm afraid we can't understand the pain in her heart!"

"Master Zhou now knows how to repay his kindness, and the third younger sister has helped him in the past. All of this is a matter of course. Why is there any hesitation in the third younger sister's heart?"

Ji Furong sighed, also anxious in her heart, she was used to being straightforward, she didn't want to watch or care about the troubles of Shang Tong's family, but how could she not care about her sister's marriage?
"Big sister, think about it, if the family members know that the third sister helped Mr. Zhou in the past, what would they think?"

Ji Chonglian also felt a headache, and couldn't help persuading softly: "These things can't be said to outsiders, but it will damage the reputation of the third sister."
