"I shouldn't be involved in this matter. What do you call this? She didn't like the promising fourth child of the Bai family, but she chose the fifth child of the Bai family who only knows how to play with guns and sticks."
Xu complained.
"How can I explain this to the eldest sister? The eldest sister will not blame you, she can only blame me as an aunt who is not well-meaning. Master, you know that the eldest sister and I have conflicts and despise each other, but I can't take revenge on Cuicui's marriage. What good does it do me to take revenge on her? I just want to help you in your career and have Shu'er to rely on in the future. I also hope that she will marry the fourth child of the Bai family."
Xu was very aggrieved.
Liu Hong's sister is a tigress and has high expectations for her daughter's marriage. If she knew that if she followed her to Lao Bai's house, her beloved daughter would fall in love with a boy who would probably farm in the country after dancing with guns and sticks, so she would have to come to visit her. You can't smash your own house.
This is not the scariest thing.
The most terrifying thing is that the eldest aunt will definitely cry, make trouble, and hang herself in front of her mother-in-law. Then her mother-in-law will naturally not blame her son, but will only tease her as her daughter-in-law.
Don't look at what Xu said in the magistrate's back house, it was because her mother-in-law was not here, and her mother-in-law was not a scumbag.
Now that her son has been promoted to magistrate, she is even more trembling. On the first day after arriving in Huaicheng, she complained openly and secretly that she was not virtuous. Her son was such a big official and didn't even have a roommate.
She said that because of this, she couldn't hold her head up in front of other wives.
She couldn't express the pain in her heart!
Now she is a little envious of Mrs. Zhen.
At least her mother-in-law didn't give her any trouble, nor did she encourage her son to take a concubine.
Liu Hong was shocked by the news that his niece did not like the fourth son of the Bai family but the fifth son of the Bai family. Xu made a lot of miscellaneous remarks before he came to his senses.
"Cui Cui fell in love with the fifth child of the Bai family? What tricks did the fifth child use?" Liu Hong asked.
Mrs. Xu felt that the men in her family were not smart enough. The fifth child of the Bai family was younger than Cuicui, and his hair was not even long, so what tricks could he use.
"Master, you don't protect your niece like this. The fifth child of the Bai family didn't do anything, and Cuicui fell in love with her." Mrs. Xu said.
Just because of Cuicui, you can't look like the fifth child of the Bai family?
"Master, what do you think we should do about this matter? Cuicui doesn't listen to advice. I think she has big ideas. Let's send her to her home. Let's not interfere with her marriage in the future. Let her sister and brother-in-law find whatever they want for her. If you ride a dragon, your son-in-law will be successful."
It’s so thankless!
What Xu is most afraid of now is that if Cuicui goes to Lao Bai's house and makes a huge joke, not to mention the eldest aunt's shame, even Liu Hong, the uncle, will also be embarrassed.
Although the probability of this happening is extremely small, with Cuicui's character of not playing by the rules, she is afraid of the worst when pressed.
"Madam, I think Cuicui doesn't look down on the fourth son of the Bai family. It's okay to look down on the fifth son of the Bai family." Liu Hong said, stroking his beard.
Xu's eyelids twitched, what nonsense did her master say?
He doesn't know what his sister is like!
"Master, this is not possible. It would be fine if the fifth child of the Bai family could study, but I heard that he doesn't know a few Chinese characters. How can he be worthy of Cuicui? My brother-in-law likes noble scholars the most, and he passed the first test with him. No." Xu said.
"Everyone has his own destiny. Since Cuicui has taken a liking to the fifth son of the Bai family, it is fate. Don't look at the fifth son of the Bai family who is just a young boy who dances with guns and sticks. He is now attracted by General Meng and has been recruited to his side. As a personal guard, I will never work under him in the future." Liu Hong said.
Xu's heart skipped a beat, her man thought too simply.
The personal guards must go to the battlefield. How dangerous is it? If Cuicui really wants to get married to the fifth child of the Bai family, she will not be able to see anyone all year round, and she will have to be on tenterhooks.
It's not like she said that as soon as you enter the door, you should have the consciousness of being a widow.
Besides, it is not easy to make a successful career in the military.
Of all the people in the world who have joined the army, General Meng is the only one who is so powerful. What if the fifth son of the Bai family is General Meng's personal guard?
The future is equally uncertain.
Cuicui has a hot temper and is not good at needlework, but she is pretty, cheerful and good at housekeeping. Wouldn't it be good for such a girl to marry a noble scholar or a low-ranking official and live her own life behind closed doors?
It's too unfair to marry a frontier guard.
"Master, do you have to get married to the Bai family? Otherwise, forget it. Cuicui has never seen anyone like the fifth child of the Bai family in her life. It is possible that she might be attracted to her by chance. Maybe she will be attracted to her in the future. forget."
Mrs. Xu was afraid that her eldest aunt and brother-in-law would come to her door.
I was afraid of trapping Cuicui.
After hearing this, Liu Hong said with a serious face: "What Madam said, can my niece be the kind of person with a frivolous mind? She is tempted by someone when she sees her? That must not be the case. She must have identified the fifth child of the Bai family."
Liu Hong thought of himself and his sister, both of whom were such people.
Take Mrs. Xu for example, although sometimes she doesn't have to be flirty or petty, her interactions with the official's wife all depend on her mood. But since he met the innocent Xu when he was young, he has never been tempted by other women in his life.
Even though the heirs were few and my mother often nagged him, he did not take any concubines.
Needless to say, my sister, my brother-in-law is so stubborn and the family is so poor, he just took a look by the river and wanted to get married.
Cuicui will naturally choose the person she likes in her marriage, but Liu Hong becomes proud of such an independent niece.
"Master said it so easily. Go tell your sister." Mrs. Xu put down her hand and ignored it.
"Madam, there is no need to say more. I will go back to find out what Cuicui is thinking, and I will tell my sister and brother-in-law about it. I think the fifth son of the Bai family is good, and he has ambitions at a young age. Is it possible that only studying in this world can be considered promising? ? Going into battle to kill the enemy and defend the country is just as promising." Liu Hong said.
Liu Hong wholeheartedly agrees with Cuicui to marry into the Bai family. The Bai family is currently the most suitable place for Cuicui.
The white-boarded couple are kind-hearted, and the whole family is united as one, and they truly love their daughter-in-law.
Since you are not destined to be the fourth child of the Bai family, it is the same as being destined to be the fifth child of the Bai family.
From now on, Liu Hong will be firmly bound to the Bai family.
Wen has the fourth eldest son of the Bai family, Wu has the fifth eldest son of the Bai family, and the village head Furong.
The power behind the village owners cannot be underestimated.
My wife doesn’t understand this in depth, so naturally she doesn’t know this.
"We are only talking about Cuicui's feelings here. We don't know what the fifth child of the Bai family is thinking. I think that the fifth child is a little younger than Cuicui. He is just a young boy. What does he know?" said Xu.
"This is not difficult. Cuicui is not very old anyway, and the two families have agreed to wait until they are older to get married. I think Cuicui has a good temperament for Lao Wu. Even if he doesn't like Cuicui, he won't hate Cuicui. . And the elders of the Bai family are pressing down. The Bai family will definitely not refuse this marriage." Bai Ban said firmly.
Bai Panmei is the number one candidate, so the Bai family will be very cautious in marriage matters.
The fifth child of the Bai family is now a small personal guard. It is a great honor to be chosen by Cuicui to be related to the prefect. Mr. and Mrs. Bai and Mrs. Bai will agree to this marriage as long as they are not stupid.
Liu Hong was very sure.
