Chapter 228: The abacus doesn't work
Mrs. Xu came out angry from the Lin family, and then went straight to the Gong family's mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After the report, Mrs. Xu entered the house to see Mrs. Gong.
Mrs. Gong was asking the maids to burn agarwood in the altar, and the aroma after lighting it was far better than ordinary sandalwood. After Mrs. Xu took a sniff, she suddenly felt comfortable all over, and the whole person was lazy, and she also envied the wealth of the Gong family.
Mrs. Gong lay on the soft floor and squinted, saw Mrs. Xu, waved her hand to signal the maid to retreat, and then asked with a smile, "How is the matter?" ”
Mrs. Xu hurriedly said: "Oh, don't mention it, it's not worth it for your wife,"
Mrs. Gong asked lightly, "What?" ”
Xu Da said: "Then the Lin family doesn't know what to do, will they get rich soon?" You also know that these people are used to being poor on weekdays, and there are people everywhere, and now they are suddenly determined, and they are unexpectedly unstoppable, and no one is here in their eyes. Forget about the rest, don't put our Gong family in your eyes, treat Mrs.'s kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs, you say this is not angry. ”
Mrs. Gong pinched the sandalwood beads tightly in her hand, but said on her face: "This is nothing strange, people suddenly became rich, and they couldn't figure out whether they were up or down, and after a long time, they would understand." What do you have to do for me, am I not worth it, is my daughter still afraid that she will not be able to marry? It's a lot of money, but you have gone for nothing, and I have prepared all the money for you. ”
Mrs. Xu was reluctant to give her the heavy reward that the Gong family gave her, and hurriedly said: "Madam, their family is not all like this, the main reason is that the old lady of their family is stubborn, and everyone else has no idea. ”
Mrs. Gong's face looked a little better, but she still held the shelf and asked, "How sure are you?" ”
Mrs. Xu said, "Madam, I look at this matter. The old man of the Lin family may not be counted, it really depends on what Xie Yuanlang means. Xie Yuanlang was fifteen years old, what a knowledgeable person. When he needs help right now, our Gong family's thick thighs, he doesn't hug them, who are going to hug them! and the adoptive daughter-in-law who has been kept at home since she was a child. I don't have much knowledge, if I hear that our Gong family has come forward, where do you dare to fight with us, maybe she will be scared if she is scared. Besides, Madame, I still have an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not. ”
Mrs. Gong smiled and said, "It's all here, and there is something hidden there." ”
Mrs. Xu smiled and said, "Yes, yes, I mean." Let's see if I can find an excuse to let Xie Yuanlang meet with Miss, with Miss's national color and fragrance, where can ordinary men hold ......"
Hearing Mrs. Gong cough lightly, Mrs. Xu knew that she had gone too far, and immediately pressed: "Madam, there is a saying that horses are weak because they are thin, and people are not romantic, but they are poor." Once a man is successful, who else is safe? I bet Xie Yuanlang met Miss. will forget about the adoptive daughter-in-law, you have to know which woman's appearance can be compared with our Miss Gong's family! ”
Mrs. Gong is also very confident in her daughter's appearance, but she will not agree on her face, but says: "This matter is not good, I will consider it again." ”
Mrs. Xu wanted to say more, but saw Mrs. Gong pick up the tea bowl. At the moment, I could only smile and leave.
The next day, Mrs. Gong came to Dengyingfang Lane in a sedan chair, and after waiting for a long time, an aunt of the Gong family said: "Madam, the adopted daughter-in-law of the Lin family has come out." ”
Mrs. Gong nodded, and immediately tore open a corner of the sedan curtain. But I saw a girl in the alley wearing a green coat with a double hanging bun, carrying a vegetable basket and walking out.
Mrs. Gong couldn't help but shake her head when she saw the other party's clothes, thinking that she was really a poor woman, and she didn't have any good clothes to wear, as Xu Da matchmaker said, how could such a woman compare with my daughter.
When the girl in Tsing Yi approached, Mrs. Gong saw her appearance clearly, and she suddenly lacked confidence.
But seeing the Lin family's adopted daughter-in-law, although the clothes are simple, but the appearance is very lovely, like clear water out of hibiscus, natural carving, although her daughter is also pretty, but where can she compare to her.
Mrs. Gong said to the mother-in-law, "You go up to find this woman and ask for directions." ”
"Yes, young grandmother."
At that moment, the mother-in-law stepped forward to stop the Lin family's adopted daughter-in-law and ask for directions. The mother-in-law deliberately pulled around, but when she saw the other party, she was not in a hurry and answered patiently.
Mrs. Gong listened to the other party's clear answer, coughed a few times, and saw that the other party heard the cough in the sedan chair, and immediately looked over.
Mrs. Gong suddenly put down the sedan curtain with a weak heart, and at the same time scolded Mrs. Xu in her heart. Where is this Lin family's adopted daughter-in-law who is an uninformed woman, seeing that she has read books and can read well, and she is not the kind of boudoir woman who has never seen the world, and blushes without saying a word to outsiders, how can such a woman be frightened by others with a few words.
Mrs. Gong originally thought that if the other party was a weak woman, she would step forward to show the details of the Gong family and let her retreat, but now she can't.
What's more, seeing the other party's appearance, Mrs. Gong knew that the other party was a little more beautiful than her daughter, and she was even less confident. At the beginning, Xu Da matchmaker also encouraged Xie Yuanlang to see his daughter in private, but fortunately she was cautious and took a look at the other party's appearance first, otherwise she would really lose face.
Mrs. Gong originally felt that she was nine out of ten, but now she was a little upset, and said angrily: "Get up the sedan chair!" ”
Mrs. Gong took a sedan chair back to the house, settled down, and then thought carefully for a while, and immediately said to the maid outside the door: "Call the young master!" ”
Soon Gong Zinan came to the house and said, "Mother! ”
Mrs. Gong said: "In five days, it will be your uncle's birthday, do you remember?" ”
Gong Zinan said with a smile: "Of course I remember, did my mother tell the child to prepare a birthday gift?" The child was already ready. ”
Mrs. Gong shook her head and said, "No, I'll let you invite someone to come." ”
Gong Zinan asked, "Who is it?" ”
"It's your classmate, Xie Yuanlang of Jinke."
Gong Zinan's face changed and said, "Mother, what are you looking for him to do?" Zong Hai may be going to Beijing to take the exam soon, are you inviting him here? ”
"I'm going to Beijing to take the exam soon, that is, I haven't gone yet, so you invite him to come first."
"But." Gong Zinan knew what his mother had in mind, and hesitated at the moment.
"But what? The former champion of this mansion invited Xie Yuanlang to come to the banquet, this is the meaning of the seniors to promote the juniors, will your classmates not sell your uncle's face. ”
Gong Zinan listened and said: "Mother, where are you letting people come to the door to congratulate their birthdays, I'm afraid it's to catch a son-in-law!" At that time, it's okay for my classmate to agree, if I don't agree, our Gong family will lose face, and I won't even have to be friends with him in the future. ”
Mrs. Gong said angrily: "Look at you, mother, how can you be so cheesy, even if your classmate is unwilling to marry my Gong family, then come to meet your uncle and get married." ”
Mrs. Gong thought to herself, at the moment, the matter of the matchmaker in my Gong family is estimated to have spread to Xie Yuan's ears, if he is willing to come, then the matter will become seven or eight points, if he doesn't come, his wishful thinking will not be able to sound.
