"Although she grew up in the village, Huahua's teachings are not based on the teachings of girls from farmers' families. Even though the people in the village said mean things about our Miss Huahua's body and the fate of the maid, I still gritted my teeth on how to train her. Just train her, because she was originally a young lady, and she became like this only when her family fell into decline."
"After so many years of training, a lot of money was spent on her, just so that she could marry a scholar and live a different life."
"If there are unmarried classmates in Da'an and Dajie's circle, no matter whether they are candidates or scholars, we all want to try our luck, maybe fate will come! Third Aunt, please help us Bar!"
When it came to the emotional point, Ping'er stood up and wanted to kneel down to Mrs. Sun, but Ms. Sun stopped her.
"We should sit down and talk, but don't kneel down or scare the third aunt." Mrs. Sun said.
Ping'er smiled sheepishly, but her eyes were red.
She was anxious, thinking that Huahua would be seventeen after the New Year, and her marriage was not settled yet, and she couldn't sleep at night.
Especially in the past few nights, I have been dreaming about my deceased wife, and I feel more and more anxious.
Ping'er was helped by Mrs. Sun and sat back down again, taking out the handkerchief to wipe her tears.
"Third Aunt, I also know that with our current family background, it is a bit high to want to marry someone who is a scholar."
"However, I am still unwilling to give up and want to take a chance. My wife said back then that the Yang family in Yuncheng is a businessman. Although the family's property is rich, they do not have the dignity of a scholar."
"Madam entrusted Huahua to me before she died, begging me to try my best to get her to marry a scholar. I have no ability. Zhou Sheng is also an honest and honest farmer. In the past two years, the two of us have been like blind cats, showing off to Huahua everywhere. I couldn't find anything to do in secret, so after thinking about it, I had to come and ask my third aunt and third uncle..."
Mrs. Sun listened to all of Ping'er's heart-wrenching thoughts, thought about it carefully, and sighed.
"What a pity the parents in the world have. Regardless of whether it's you or Huahua's own mother, these thoughts are all good." Mrs. Sun said.
"I will discuss this matter with your third uncle when he comes back, but I have to make it clear to you in advance."
"Third Aunt, please speak, I am listening carefully."
"Most of Daan's classmates before he passed the national examination were from Wanghai County. He, Dajie and Zhang Ban have always been classmates before."
"After Da'an passed the exam, he went to Qing'an County to study. His classmates were all successful in the exam, but most of those classmates were young men from other counties and counties..."
"Third Aunt, my classmate from Qing'an County doesn't need to be introduced. The family background is too high and the journey is far. We don't dare to expect it, and we are not willing to let Huahua marry too far away." Ping'er said quickly.
Mrs. Sun nodded with satisfaction. It was good for Ping'er to have such self-awareness.
"In that case, why don't we look among our classmates when we were studying in the town?" asked Sun.
Ping'er nodded quickly.
"Then when Dajie comes back, let Dajie help with the search? Xiaojie's husband Zhang Ban is Dajie's classmate." said Sun.
"I'll help you get to the bottom of things with my eldest sister later, and ask her to send a message to Dajie to let her know."
Ping'er nodded gratefully. Her goal was achieved and she stood up to leave.
Ping'er left with her front legs, and Sun Shi, the big one with her back legs, happened to come to visit Sun Shi.
Seeing Mrs. Sun carrying a basket and going out, Mrs. Sun asked, "Where are you going?"
Mrs. Sun said: "Sister, I came just in time. I was planning to go over and talk to you."
"Ah? Why are you carrying a basket when you are talking to me? Let me see what's in this basket?" Mrs. Sun opened the basket and was even more surprised when she saw what was inside.
"Ah, are you going to talk to me, or are you giving me a gift?" Da Sun asked jokingly.
"This meat is a piece of bacon smoked during the Chinese New Year. It's a good thing!"
Mrs. Sun pursed her lips and smiled: "Sister, I didn't give these things to you, Ping'er asked them to bring them to you."
Sun lied.
Ping'er's original words were to go back and prepare the gifts alone, and go and tell Mrs. Sun in person that the things in this basket were to honor Mrs. Sun.
Mrs. Sun was unwilling to ask Ping'er to spend any more money, so she took it upon herself to give the contents of the basket to Mrs. Sun.
The eldest Sun was happy and took another look at the things in the basket: "As far as I know, Zhou Sheng and Ping'er's life is not that luxurious. Zhou Sheng follows the transportation team and can support the whole family by himself."
"However, it would be too expensive to bring a basket of eggs and meat just to talk. What's going on?" Da Sun asked again.
Just as Mrs. Sun was about to speak, Mrs. Sun suddenly raised her hand and made a gesture to suppress her voice.
"Wait a minute, let me guess, Ping'er wants to order pork for the New Year at my house in advance, right?"
Mrs. Sun shook her head and pulled the eldest Mr. Sun back to sit at the table.
"Sister, this is a big deal. I told you not to make it public," said Sun.
Da Sun nodded repeatedly: "Speak quickly, I have a sense of discretion."
Mrs. Sun then put down the basket, and in a low voice told the eldest Mrs. Sun the purpose of Ping'er's coming.
Da Sun is a person who likes to have fun and is warm-hearted. When he heard these words, his eyes lit up and he became excited.
"Hey, Ping'er is smart. If you come to me for this kind of thing, just come to me!"
Mrs. Sun patted her chest and said, "I will send a message to Dajie later and ask him to carefully screen and win over those among his classmates who have passed the exams of scholar and judicial examination, preferably the imperial examination, and who have not married or been engaged. When the time comes, select The two look alike and Huahua look at each other, but..."
"Just what?" asked Sun.
Da Sun said: "I won't beat around the bush when I talk to you. Let alone the promotion of people. Even if he is a scholar, if his family can afford him to study and get fame, he must not be the kind of poor family who can't take the blame. There are several acres of fields and a few shops.”
"I'm worried that Ping'er is attracted to her, but the man doesn't like her. Scholars are all arrogant. Even though Huahua grew up according to the young lady's upbringing, her mother's family is there after all."
"I heard from Da'an and Dajie that the people who caught the son-in-law were all landowners from outside the army. If they caught the son-in-law, the dowry for the young lady would be very generous. I'm not worried about Ping'er and Huahua's conditions."
Sun smiled, "I was worried like you, eldest sister, but Ping'er revealed to me that Huahua's biological mother left a dowry for Huahua before she died."
"Not to mention that he is worthy of being promoted, but he still has the confidence to compensate for being an ordinary scholar. Sister, just go and inquire about it, but this matter cannot be made public."
Mrs. Sun puffed up her chest and said, "Don't worry, your eldest sister, I am a straight-headed person, but I know it well. Before the marriage is finalized, I will never say a word to anyone. This matter is related to Huahua's reputation." Woolen cloth!"
