Chapter 650 Lord of a Country
Ning Xu put down the list in his hand, the words came to his lips, and then swallowed them back. The people sent to investigate Rong Chuan will not be able to return for a while. This kid Chuan has something to do with the Ning family, no, it should be said that he has something to do with the one in front of him.
Ning Xu sighed in his heart, if the elder brother hadn't died too early, he would have died before the dynasty was established, no matter how old Rong Chuan was, he would definitely think about his elder brother, as for the second elder brother, he had also thought about it, But the relationship between the second brother and the second sister-in-law is really good, and the two nephews in the mansion are older than Rong Chuan, so it's just a circle in my head.
The emperor felt that he had a particularly good temper towards Ning Xu, "Why don't you talk?"
Ning Xu knew how to measure, "I feel deeply in my heart that Mr. Zhou's son and future son-in-law are both good. I heard that there is a son in the family who can also read. Yes, it is said that Mr. Zhou's eldest grandson is also good."
The emperor Zhang Yu thought that Ning Xu thought of his sons again, "You like children so much, your second brother's grandsons are also good, you can adopt one."
Ning Xu waved his hand, "My second brother's grandchildren are all treasures, forget it, after a hundred years, I will return the title of Lord Marquis to the court."
Beijing, Zhou Mansion, Deng Xiucai came to congratulate, Chang Lian's new acquaintances with good official sons also came to the door, fortunately, because they have to prepare for the imperial examination quickly, after the list came out, they all studied steadily, there is no invitation post up.
Two days later, Deng Xiucai came to the door and saluted Zhulan when she saw her. Zhulan hurriedly asked, "Why are you doing this?"
Deng Xiucai blushed, "I came here today to ask Mr. Gong for help, but I just don't know how to speak."
Zhulan thought she would just come up with a big gift, "Since you came here, you have a plan in mind, if there is anything you can't say, please tell me first, and I will listen carefully."
Deng Xiucai encouraged herself, "Deng wants to ask Mr. Gong to help find a woman who is educated and reasonable, and has a clean family background."
Zhulan didn't think much about it, and answered, "You are looking for a wife for your daughter, it's easy to handle."
Deng Xiucai blushed again, "No, no, Deng wants to marry again."
Zhulan said, "...marry again!"
If she remembers correctly, it seems that Zhou Shuren said that Deng Xiucai has no plans to marry again. How did this change her mind?
Zhulan asked: "But is there someone you like?"
Then I felt that I was asking nonsense, and said that I asked her to help me find it, which must be unsatisfactory.
Deng Xiucai hurriedly explained: "No, no, Deng took back his daughter, but the daughter is still young, so it's fine if Deng only has one son, but the daughter is different, the uneducated female relatives above have a bad reputation for women. A few days ago, she divorced her again, which hurt her reputation even more, so Deng thought about the need for a hostess in the family, and hoped to teach her daughter to be sensible and understand the rules."
Zhulan understands that Deng Xiucai still wants to have a mistress who can take care of the house so as not to distract him. Although he doesn't pay much attention to Deng Xiucai's house, it's right that Deng Xiucai's house doesn't stop.
Zhulan understood that when Deng Xiucai came to her, he not only hoped that she could help find a good man, but also wanted to show his attitude through marriage, and he had absolutely no ambiguity towards the Zhou Mansion, "I've made a note of this, and I will look for it more. "
Deng Xiucai was overjoyed, he trusted the eyes of the Zhou family's matriarch, "Deng thanked Mr. Gong."
Zhulan waited for Deng Xiucai to leave, thinking about the acquaintances. There was really no one she knew who was suitable, so she asked Mrs. Song, "Do you have anyone you know?"
Mrs. Song really has someone to choose, "Mistress, among the gentlemen invited at home, there is Mr. Sun's younger sister and her past, do you remember?"
Zhulan recalled, "At the beginning of the investigation, there was indeed such a thing. I remember that Mr. Sun's younger sister seems to have more than twenty."
Mrs. Song remembered clearly, "I am twenty-two this year, and we divorced because I have no children. I married a petty official back then. She has a wide range of vision and knowledge, and she can read and write. She is suitable for Deng Xiucai."
Zhulan thought, it was indeed appropriate, "Is it really impossible to give birth?"
Song Pozi said: "The investigation is like this,
I don't know exactly. "
Zhulan said: "Deng Xiucai has children, it's better to check carefully."
Mrs. Song wrote it down.
Zhulan sighed again, "Deng Xiucai is really good to her daughter, such a rare good father."
Deng Xiucai really spent a lot of thought on this girl.
In Ning Mansion, Mr. Ning had eaten, motioned his youngest son to go with him to the tea room to drink tea, and sat down on the chair, "Do you have a happy event these days?"
What the old man wants to ask is, is he in good health?
Ning Xu also sat slumped with no image, "Father, did I act obviously?"
Mr. Ning snorted, "It's more than obvious."
Come on, it made him happy in vain.
Ning Xu ate the fruit in hand, "Father, you always ask me to come here to ask more than just this!"
Old Master Ning frowned, "Since you regained your identity, you have been too diligent in going to the palace. You have to remember that you are always a minister, so don't waste your affection."
A daughter is not a daughter, she is a queen, and the emperor will never be a son-in-law, but the lord of a country.
Ning Xu wiped his hands with a handkerchief, "Father, I know better than you. It's not because I want to go, and the emperor and queen ordered it. This is a favor, and I will accept it for your son."
Mr. Ning was silent for a moment, "It's good if you have a sense of proportion in your heart. Your second brother is not strong enough, but there are two sons, but they are all baby bumps. These two children are not outstanding. I was also responsible for my relationship. I have three sons who died. I just thought, no matter how glorious the Ning Mansion is, there must be successors, so I let go of the two children, and there are no successors in the Ning Mansion, so don't be too outrageous."
Ning Xu was in a panic, father was used to the two nephews, why didn't he want to save the lives of the two nephews, especially in good health, and father also wanted to make the emperor feel more at ease, the two nephews were mediocre, which was good for everyone.
In the afternoon, Zhulan saw Mrs. Dong holding a letter in her hand, "Is there something wrong?"
Mrs. Dong was angry. The letter in her hand was forwarded to her by her sister-in-law. After reading it, she became even more angry. This is a letter from her elder brother and sister-in-law. Daddy, this is the idea of hitting on her daughter. I really dare to think, "Mother, my little nephew has been in Zhou Mansion for a while. I just received a letter from my sister saying that the child has recovered. For a while, do you think it is feasible for him to study with Deng Yun?"
She finally softened her heart. The elder brother's letter must have been written behind his parents' backs. After all, it was his nephew. She still hopes that his nephew will be well. At present, the child can't be sent back, so he can only raise him well. It's not a problem to let him go.
Zhulan, "As long as you think about it."
She also thought about it, it's just that this is Dong's nephew, or it's better for Dong to speak up.
Mrs. Dong thought to herself, this is her own mother-in-law, if someone else's mother-in-law is changed, the Dong family must have a lump in her heart for doing this.
