A few days passed, and Mrs. Lian saw that her son had not moved for so long, and she couldn't sit still.
That day, the family sat together and chatted after dinner. Mrs. Lian looked at Zhou Yan.
"Brother Yan, how about your sister and I pick one for you?"
If it hadn't been for the Emperor's affairs, Mrs. Lian would not have said this. Parents always hope that their children will live a better life, find someone they like, and have no regrets in the rest of their lives.
After Zhou Yan was stunned for a few seconds, he looked at the family.
"No need mother, I have a suitable candidate here."
Hearing Zhou Yan's words, even Zhou Yu was stunned. How come he hadn't heard his eldest brother mention who he liked before.
"Brother, who is it?"
Zhou Yu couldn't help but ask.
"You also know that she is Mo Xun, the second girl of the Mo family."
Hearing this name, a little girl in green clothes appeared in Zhou Yu's mind.
In fact, Mo Xun is older than her, sixteen years old, but in Zhou Yu's heart, she is just a little girl. After hearing that her eldest brother chose Mo Xun, Zhou Yu nodded.
"Can."
"Mom, find someone to go to Mo's house tomorrow to propose marriage."
The couple knew something about the Mo family. The old man of the Mo family was one of the cabinet ministers before. However, after the old man of the Mo family died of illness, the Mo family lost its previous glory.
But the foundation of the Mo family is still there. The three sons are still serving as officials in the court. The eldest master of the Mo family, Mo Xun's father, serves as a fourth-rank official in Beijing, and the second and third masters of the Mo family are all outside. The Mo family Only Mr. Mo’s family lives now.
Mr. Mo has two sons and one daughter, the eldest son, the second daughter of the Mo family, and a younger son.
The couple had heard that the second girl of the Mo family was a very difficult person to get along with, but this was just a rumor. Since the daughters agreed, it meant that the second girl of the Mo family was not what the rumors said.
Because of Zhou Yan's marriage, the mother and daughter discussed it and had already prepared a lot of betrothal gifts for Zhou Yan to go to the bride's family. Now they are just waiting to go to the Mo family to propose marriage tomorrow. If the Mo family agrees, next time Recruitment can be put on the agenda.
The most important thing is Zhou Yan's age, which should be considered a late marriage in ancient times.
Afraid that Zhou Yan would be embarrassed, the family of three did not ask him how he fell in love with the second girl of the Mo family. The mother and daughter happily discussed going to the Mo Mansion to propose marriage.
Zhou Yu is very self-aware of her family's situation. They just went to Mo Mansion to propose marriage. They thought that tomorrow's proposal would not go smoothly. However, her eldest brother finally fell in love with a girl. As a younger sister, she had to do it anyway. His eldest brother strives for nothing.
The most important thing is to ask Mo Xun if that girl has a crush on her eldest brother. She doesn't want them to become a resentful couple after his eldest brother marries him home. It's not necessarily that he has a sweetheart, so Zhou Yu did it. Be prepared with both hands.
Early the next morning, Mrs. Lian called a matchmaker early to discuss going to Mo Mansion to propose marriage. Zhou Yu took Ye'er out to a teahouse not far from Mo Mansion and asked Wu Lang to go to Mo Mansion. I posted a message below, intending to invite Mo Xun to a teahouse.
The post sent by the Anping County Prince's Mansion, if it had been in the past, before the second girl had a teacher-student relationship with Jiahe County Lord, this post would never have been able to enter the inner courtyard.
But things are different now. The second girl has done meritorious service on behalf of the emperor, and now they are just waiting for a group of them to come back, and the emperor will reward them according to their merits.
Therefore, people in the Mo Mansion did not dare to be careless about the post sent by the Prince of Anping County. The post was directly delivered to Mo Xun.
Mo Xun took the post and opened it, and saw that the Lord of Jiahe County invited her to a teahouse.
After seeing the above words, Mo Xun's hands began to shake. Damn it, why did the Lord of Jiahe County want to see her.
The personal maid on the side had been following her young lady for a long time. Naturally, she knew how powerful the Lord Jiahe County was and couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
"Miss, are we still going?"
Although she was scared to death, the county boss had already posted a message for her. If she didn't go, Mo Xun couldn't even imagine what would happen next.
"Go, go and get ready for me."
Mo Xun's voice was weak when he said this, obviously not as calm as usual.
The maid went to prepare the clothes that the young lady would wear when going out. After a while of fussing, the master and the servant went out.
Mo Xun didn't need to report to his mother when he went out, and the concierge didn't dare to stop him.
Not long after Mo Xun left home, the carriage from the Anping County Prince's Mansion stopped at the door of the mansion.
The concierge was very strange. He had just posted a message from the Anping County Prince's Palace, asking his lady to go out for tea, but why was she here again?
But when he saw Zhao getting off the carriage, in addition to Princess Anping, she was also accompanied by Matchmaker Fang. The porter knew in his heart that Prince Anping was here to propose marriage.
Matchmaker Fang is a serious official matchmaker, and there are few high-ranking people in Kyoto who don't know her.
The boy didn't dare to be careless when he saw it. One person led the two people in, while the other person hurriedly ran into the backyard.
"Ma'am, it's not good!"
The boy was still outside the yard and shouted into the yard. At this time, Mrs. Mo had just finished breakfast and was drinking tea. When she heard the boy's voice that was several times louder than usual, she couldn't help but shake her hands. A few drops of tea splashed on his hands, and his brows immediately furrowed.
The maid on the side went out immediately when she saw him. She put her hands on her hips and glared at the young man who was shouting.
"What happened? You shouted so loudly? If you scare the madam, I wonder if you still want to do it in the house!"
The boy was also excited just now, and he couldn't control his voice. After shouting, he regretted it, but he couldn't take it back.
Now that he heard the maid's words, he quickly lowered his voice.
"Sister Su Xin, am I anxious? The princess of Anping County is here."
As Mrs. Mo's personal maid, Su Xin knew very few things in the mansion that she didn't know about. She also knew about the Jiahe County Lord of Anping County Prince's Palace who had just posted a message inviting the second girl to go out for tea.
Now I heard that the princess of Anping County came to visit, so I felt a little confused, but I still stared at the boy.
"When people come, they come. Why are you shouting so loudly?"
"Sister Su Xin, I just couldn't hold it back. The Princess of Anping County didn't come alone. She also brought Matchmaker Fang with her. The two of them are probably already in the main hall now."
Su Xin's eyes widened when she heard what the boy said. Something big was going to happen.
"Okay, I get it."
The last word fell, but the person was already gone.
Su Xin hurried into the house.
"Madam, I'm sorry, the Princess of Anping County is here to propose marriage."
Mrs. Mo was surprised that the princess of Anping County came to propose marriage. She must have proposed marriage to her eldest son, and the only maiden in their house was her second daughter.
