Xiao Nianzhi also became somewhat interested when she heard the rich aunt mention the old gossip. She had never heard of it before, and now that they were talking about it, she really wanted to know the follow-up.
So, she couldn't help but said again: "What happened next? What happened next, aunt?"
The rich aunt pulled more mugwort in front of the door where Xiao Nianzhi lived, and then continued: "Mrs. Meng was still there at that time. When she heard the news, she fainted from fright. Those foreigners, Who knows what their living habits are like? It is also said that some of them make a living by cannibalizing people. Even if there were princesses and relatives in the past, there is nothing you can do. Who would be willing to give away your own heart and soul to them? "
Being chosen as the most talented and beautiful young master in the capital is not a good thing, no matter how you look at it.
Therefore, His Majesty will definitely not agree, and Mrs. Meng fainted from fright over this matter.
Meng Yinze's mother was the queen's clan sister.
No matter what, this thing will definitely not work out in the end.
The female envoy from the foreign country was just a test.
However, it can also be seen from this that Meng Yinze's talent and appearance are indeed amazing and attractive.
Otherwise, it would not be possible to seduce the female envoy of that country. It is said that before leaving, she even intended to tie her away quietly.
That is to say, Mr. Meng had some self-defense skills on his body, which prevented the other party from succeeding.
Nowadays, not many people in the capital have mentioned this matter. The Meng family feels that it is shameful and difficult to mention it.
Meng Yinze is also reluctant to be mentioned about these few dark histories.
At the end of the sentence, the rich aunt laughed and sighed again: "The talented ladies in the capital privately praise him as handsome as the bright moon and as talented as the ocean. Although we don't understand the moon or the ocean, Mr. Meng is indeed humble and polite. He is always very polite when talking to us."
Xiao Nianzhi's first impression of Meng Yinze was not bad, but it was limited to that.
Putting aside the fact that I am in my filial piety period, I don’t need to think about marriage.
Just talking about her current status, even with Aunt Yu and Xiao Siye, it can't change the fact that she was born as a peasant girl.
Therefore, she couldn't reach those high-end courtyards in the capital, and she had no intention of doing so.
She didn't have enough strength and confidence to enter those high-end courtyards even if she tried all her means.
But what about after entering?
As the bottom of the entire high-ranking family, she must be the one who has been wronged and bullied.
So, why bother?
Is it because the weather outside doesn’t look good, the air smells bad, or the space is not free enough?
Do you have to go to the high gate courtyard to look up to others?
However, personal pursuits are different, and Xiao Nianzhi feels that his own ideas cannot represent everyone.
She has her own persistence, and others also have their own choices.
Therefore, she felt that Mr. Meng was indeed very talented and talented.
But, with her, that's where it ends.
No matter how much more, Xiao Nianzhi had no intention to pry, let alone interest.
After talking about Mr. Meng, Aunt Fu didn't know what she thought of, and sighed softly again: "Today, the person ranked first is Mr. Meng, and the person ranked second is Mr. Zhao. They are all powerful and powerful sons in the capital. On the other hand, Mr. Yu, who is in third place, looks heart-wrenching."
Mr. Yu?
Xiao Nianzhi had a vague impression that he seemed to be a slightly cautious young student?
Naturally, there are students from poor families in the Imperial College, and there are quite a few of them.
Maybe this Mr. Yu is a member of a poor family?
Thinking of this, Xiao Nianzhi asked curiously: "Is it because of a bad background?"
Hearing her question, the rich aunt nodded: "I heard it wasn't very good. His parents are gone and there are no other clan members. It was a kind-hearted uncle who took him back when he was young and relied on a few acres of thin fields. I will support him to study, but Young Master Yu is indeed very knowledgeable, and many of the masters in the academy have praised him."
Having said this, the rich aunt came closer to Xiao Nianzhi and whispered: "Yuan Niang, this Mr. Yu, we can pay attention to it later. You are now in the period of mourning, so it is not easy for us to see each other and discuss marriage, but we You can secretly observe it, if there is a good idea, pay more attention to it, maybe after three years, he has not settled on someone, and we will have a chance."
The rich aunt's thoughts were more pragmatic. Xiao Nianzhi was not from a high family background. Instead of picking some noble young masters and suffering the consequences, it would be better to pick someone with a similar background, who was even easier to manipulate.
In this way, Xiao Nianzhi occupies a dominant position in the family, and his life will be relatively easier.
The other party meant well. After hearing this, Xiao Nianzhi smiled sheepishly: "Auntie, don't make fun of me. I can't make the decision on this matter myself."
In fact, it is possible. Xiao Siye respects her opinion and Aunt Yu will not interfere with her too much.
However, for many good intentions that are difficult to refuse, it is a good excuse to push them to the elders.
The rich aunt didn't think much about it. After hearing this, she hurriedly slapped her mouth: "Oh, I forgot about this."
After that, the rich aunt talked about many students one after another, especially some students from poor families.
The other party had good intentions, so Xiao Nianzhi didn't resist too much. Most of the time, he just treated the other party as gossip and chatted with him.
After smoking the mugwort, the two of them cleaned up and went back to their respective houses to sleep.
The next day, it was rainy.
Summer rain comes quickly and leaves quickly.
When Xiao Nianzhi got up early, the rain was falling very hard, and it was pounding on the window. It felt like it could break the window.
Two quarters of an hour later, the rain stopped and the sun came out.
Xiao Nianzhi looked at the time. There should be breakfast in the cafeteria, so she strolled over.
She came relatively late, and when she came over, she only saw a few students here and there.
Xiao Nianzhi glanced briefly and looked away when he didn't see anything particularly familiar.
While eating, there was a student who happened to be one step behind her.
Xiao Nianzhi felt that he was not in a hurry to go to class and was not in a hurry, so he deliberately gave in.
This made the other party very embarrassed and a little at a loss.
Seeing that the other party was standing still, Xiao Nianzhi turned his head to look at him: "Young Master, please go first, I'm not in a hurry."
After Xiao Nianzhi finished speaking, he took the initiative to retreat behind the opponent.
Then, she discovered that the other party was not unfamiliar. Wasn't this the potential stock that the rich aunt asked her to pay attention to yesterday, Mr. Yu?
The other party was ranked third yesterday. Xiao Nianzhi took a look at it twice and can still remember the general appearance of the other party.
However, the other party seemed to have no intention of saying hello. After Xiao Nianzhi finished speaking, he looked away and stopped paying more attention.
Although the folk customs of Jin Dynasty are open, Xiao Nianzhi still needs to pay attention to male and female etiquette and social distance.
After all, living in this era, you have to think more about your own reputation and the reputation of those behind you.
However, as soon as Xiao Nianzhi stood up, he heard Student Yu say slightly nervously: "Xiao, Miss Xiao."
