Chapter 302, Zhaodebo Mansion

   "Supper is about to start, so don't go back to the yard. You will go to the old lady's yard soon with your mother."

  Ms. Li sorted out the play objects sent by the Li family and Xiao Yeyang, while selecting some according to the old lady's preferences, and prepared to send them to them when they had dinner later.

Daohua nodded, picked up the red jujube cake on the table and ate it leisurely. Thinking of the eldest brother’s marriage that was mentioned in the grandmother’s house before, she couldn’t help asking: "Mother, which one did you match for your eldest brother? Girl? Do I know?"

  Ms. Li had a pause with her hand in selecting the object, and shook her head and sighed: "It's not in my picture."

   Daohua's eyes lit up, and she smiled: "Could it be that the eldest brother is in the picture?"

  Ms. Li glared at her daughter: "What nonsense! Marriage has always been the words of the matchmaker by the order of the parents. How can there be a match?"

   Daohua curled her mouth and muttered: "What's wrong with her? Maybe it's better than your messy mandarin duck book!"

   "What did you say?"

  Mrs. Li turned her head and looked over.

Daohua shook her head quickly, pretending to be at a loss: "I didn't say anything!" Seeing Mrs. Li with a little anger on her face, she quickly changed the subject, "It's not your mother, but the father?"

   said, twisting his eyebrows.

   "Mother, my father's vision is really not very good. You have to take care of your elder brother. This is a matter of life for your elder brother."

  Mrs. Li glanced at her daughter slantingly: "It's worthy of you to say, but yeah, it's not always true that this marriage is not counted!"

   Daohua walked over and shook Mrs. Li's arm: "Mother, you tell me which girl I am from first? Maybe I can help too."

Mrs. Li smiled and shook her head: "You can't help, that girl is from Beijing."

   Daohua looked surprised. After a while, she shook her head and sighed: "I really got my point. My eldest brother went to the capital and brought you a wife back."

  "Which family is it? I have the opportunity to ask Yuan Yao and Jingwan to find out. They know more about the capital than ours."

  Ms. Li felt right, so she didn’t tell her daughter: “It’s the second girl from Count Zhaode’s mansion.”

   Daohua was shocked: "The girl from the earl's house? How can such a family look at our house?"

  It's not that she looks down on her own family, but it's that ancient marriages were very close to each other.

  Cheap Dad is now the prefect of the fourth grade, but it is not a little bit different from those in the capital that have noble ranks.

   "Could it be that the girl from the Earl's Mansion has a hidden illness?"

  The daughters of big families in this era almost all want to marry, and marriage is naturally profitable. Therefore, most women are married high in exchange for benefits for the family.

  There are also low-married people, but they are definitely not many.

  Ms. Li looked at her daughter irritably, and nodded her head: "What are you thinking about in your head all day?"

   Daohua rubbed her forehead, and muttered: "Daughter, this is a normal analysis. How can the sky drop pie for no reason? I naturally have to think more."

Mrs. Li sighed: "The second girl from the Han family does not have a hidden illness. The Earl's Mansion of Zhaode fell in love with your eldest brother. One is that your father was praised by the emperor when he was reporting on his work; the other is that your eldest brother's appearance and manners are not bad. , If you have good knowledge, you will naturally be photographed."

"Three. The master told your father privately on Tuesday that the title of Zhaode Earl’s Mansion has reached the last term. Although there are people serving as officials in the court, most of them are not high-ranking officials and do not hold real power. Therefore, this married man The subject will naturally press down."

  Ina Hua twisted her eyebrows, and said puzzledly: "If this is the case, then why should we marry their family?"

Mrs. Li: "The dead camels are bigger than horses. Earl Zhaode's mansion has been operating in the capital for several generations. There must be some personal connections. Your father is in his prime of life, and it is very likely that he will enter Beijing as an official in the future. , If there is no one to support, how to stand firm?"

   Daohua nodded: "Then, does the second girl from the Han family like it?"

  Ms. Li became silent, and after a while, she said: "Your father said, he took a look at the second girl of the Han family from a distance. She is a beautiful and dignified manner."

  Ina Flower: "I am not asking my father, I am asking my eldest brother, does my eldest brother like it?"

  Mrs. Li shook her head: "My mother also asked your elder brother, but he lowered his head and said nothing, but he didn't object, I guess he was embarrassed."

   Daohua thought for a while: "Mother, when you talk to your elder brother, don’t think about family interests. You have to consult your elder brother. After all, your eldest sister will live with your elder brother for a lifetime."

Mrs. Li suddenly smiled: "You, you're just busy, don't you know about this? Besides, the Han family just raised a mouth, although in this generation, the earl's mansion is about to be taken back, but After all, it is the house of the duke, and there are still requirements and conditions for choosing a son-in-law."

   "Zhao Debo said, if your eldest brother can be promoted this year, he will be willing to marry the baby daughter to our house."

   Daohua's face was surprised: "Big Brother is going back to his hometown for scientific research this year?"

  Mrs. Li nodded: "Your eldest brother has studied in Wangyue Academy for three years, and his knowledge is much better than before. Both your father and Master Xiao said that you can end the exam."

   "If you get married before you get married, this is what my mother and your father want to see."

   Daohua was speechless: "Then if my eldest brother fails to pass the test, he won’t get married?"

"boom!"

  Ms. Li stared at Daohua’s forehead, “Is there anyone who said that about your brother?” She said, her tone affirmed, “Your eldest brother, you will definitely be able to pass the exam.”

   Daohua nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, what my mother said is that the eldest brother must be able to go to high school, but the daughter means you and father, don’t put too much pressure on the eldest brother."

  Ms. Li smiled and said: "Don't worry, mother is reasonable, and your father, since he was promoted to the presidency of Ningmen Mansion, he has been so busy that he has no time to test and talk about your eldest brother."

   Daohua nodded, and asked casually: "Father is busy?"

Mrs. Li glanced out the window, and it was already a little dark: "Have you seen that you haven't come back yet at this time?" Then, she sighed, "Tonight, your father is afraid that he can't eat with us." ."

   said, turning his head to look at Pingtong.

  "Tell the kitchen to cook two more dishes that the master likes to eat, and then simmer them on the stove, until the master is ready to eat. It is delicious."

  Pingtong nodded and replied: "Yes." As he said, he left the courtyard with a smile.

   Inaka asked: "Did my father take over the job badly?"

  Mrs. Li shook her head: "That's not true. The main reason is that the situation in Ningmen Mansion is too complicated. There are refugees from Fenxi and Jiguang in many places."

"Your father said that if you want to carry out major livelihood issues such as persuading farmers and mulberry, you must first remove these unstable public security factors. Otherwise, the people will not be able to produce at ease. Now, your father is thinking of ways to resettle the refugees. Woolen cloth."

  　 Happy New Year everyone!
