"The first meeting left such an impression on Madam, which is actually quite good. It shows that His Highness Prince Ning is very real." Jin Miaomiao smiled, looked at the head of the Luan family, and then at the Liu family's daughter, with a hint. , "Not all people are so open and show their truest side when they meet a stranger for the first time."
"Yeah, so that's why I like him very much."
"But..." Hongye held her cheek and said very dissatisfied, "He doesn't understand girls, and he doesn't know what you want at all. You say something, he says something, you say beat a dog, but he insists on it. Go catch the chicken, isn’t this the same thing as the donkey’s lip and the horse’s mouth?”
"What you said is wrong." Jin Miaomiao waved her hand, "They just don't understand the style and are not as considerate as you think."
"Yes, but this cannot be said to be a shortcoming. There are probably very few boys in this world who can understand what girls want." Ms. Liu sighed softly, glanced at her husband, and sighed again. Said, "General, if this is your criteria for choosing a son-in-law, it is very likely that you will not be able to find the right person."
"That's not necessarily true!" Hongye looked at Shen Haolin and then at Xue Ruitian, "I think the boys around me are pretty good. They definitely can't do the same thing as bringing you hot tea when you say they're cold. .”
"The general is quite lucky. He can meet people who know him well, but there are still many people who don't meet such caring people."
"That's true!" Jin Miaomiao nodded, "There are really very few people who know exactly what you are thinking, not many."
"So, this is not a shortcoming, and you can't beat people to death with a stick just because of this. Not to mention young men in their twenties who are not yet married, even men who are over fifty and have been married for many years. They may not necessarily know what their wives and aunts really like and what they really want.”
"Well!" Jin Miaomiao thought for a while, "This is indeed the case. Some people think that they have done very well, but their wives are inconsiderate of them and are very hypocritical. And then they don't know how to be satisfied. I don't think they are at all. I don’t know what’s wrong with me.”
"That's it, what they think is completely different from what we think." Liu's daughter sighed softly and glanced at her husband, "In the hearts of these gentlemen, as long as they give their women money and satisfaction, The silks and satins they want, the gold and silver jewelry they want, and giving them a life without worries about food and clothing are already considered considerate. As for other things, such as women also need some companionship, talk, and talk. There are some things on your mind that a gentleman would never think of."
The head of the Luan family was a little embarrassed when he was pointed out so openly, but when he heard what Liu's daughter said, he showed a blank expression.
"Can't we just talk to your little sisters to talk about this?" He looked at Shen Haolin in confusion, and then at Xue Ruitian, "Don't you have to meet with your little sisters every now and then, have tea with your good wife, etc. ?Isn’t this an occasion where we can just chat?”
"Master Luan, there are some things that cannot be said outside. Even the madam's little sisters and the madam who are friends with her cannot know. What's more, what the noble madam wants is just to sing in harmony with her husband. What does it have to do with outsiders?"
"This..." The head of the Luan family thought for a moment and shook his head slightly, "I don't quite understand."
"Let's put it this way, my wife comes from a scholarly family. In addition to the material things you provide, she also has some other needs."
"Other needs? Chatting?" The head of the Luan family shook his head gently, "Traveling in the mountains and rivers? How can I have this time? I am still busy with socializing!"
"Did you hear that?" Ms. Liu smiled bitterly, "This is probably the truest thought in many men's hearts."
"Master Luan, I have a question." Hongye looked at Master Luan and said nonchalantly, "If Madam Tianzun wants to talk to you about poetry, poetry, life ideals, or a poet she likes very much, , are you able to pick up the conversation and interact with her?"
"No!" The head of the Luan family replied simply. "Although I also like these, we probably can't do it because we don't have the time. Besides, we have lived in Jiangnan for decades, and my wife often holds flower appreciation at home. Banquets, tea banquets, etc., but the guests were all ladies from Jiangnan trading companies, and I didn’t see her inviting famous families from Jiangnan. We usually have some contacts, so I thought she didn’t like these people. And she had some contacts with us. Everyone held a banquet, and we never received an invitation. I guess they thought it was inappropriate for us to appear at such a banquet, so they didn’t invite us."
"Master, you really think that we are too important. The famous families we associate with are just branches of Jiangnan people who specialize in business. With our status, we can't reach their own families. What's more, even if they are specialized The branch responsible for doing business, and the guests at the banquet are also branches of famous families, we are the same people as them, and we are nothing in the eyes of others."
"Madam, why should you belittle yourself?"
"I'm not belittling myself, this is the fact." The Liu family sighed softly, "Just now, this adult said that I come from a scholarly family. He already thinks highly of me and looks up to me. The Liu family is just a small family. Xiaohu's scholar family has two or three generations of scholars. My father was lucky enough to become an official. His family background in Xijing City is nothing. If it weren't for the engagement with His Highness Prince Ning, no one would know about it. Jiangnan is a gathering place for famous families that have existed for hundreds or thousands of years, and a family like ours cannot make a splash there."
"Oh, that's it." The head of the Luan family smiled sheepishly, "I don't know much about the secrets here, and I didn't know there were so many explanations here. I'm really sorry for wronging my wife these years. "
Liu's daughter didn't answer the words of the Luan family leader. She couldn't tell whether her husband was just joking around or if he was really jealous. His tone sounded like he was joking, but his expression seemed to be very heart-warming.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but reveal a wry smile. Even though they had been husband and wife for so many years, they were indeed very compatible in certain matters, especially regarding the tasks of the main family and the business of the Luan and Liu families. , they are very in tune with each other, but in terms of knowledge and interest, there are indeed some shortcomings. Sometimes they really mean to play the piano to others. Maybe they are really suitable to be partners, rather than husband and wife partners with intertwined souls.
