Chapter 802 Asking Someone to Propose Marriage
When the mother-in-law saw Bai Yun approaching, she immediately took a step forward with a bright smile, which was a blessing to her body.
"The old slave paid his respects to Madam Bai. When he received Madam Bai's invitation, my eldest lady was very surprised. She quickly sent the old slave to wait at the door to welcome Madam Bai.
"I don't dare to take it seriously. After all, it's me who has disturbed her. It's my fault to come here rashly and disturb Madam Liu's peace."
Baiyunxi stepped out of the carriage with Wenyou's support and said a polite word to the woman who greeted her. Before the mother-in-law could speak, a hearty laughter sounded at the door.
"I don't like to hear what Sister Bai said. I usually have nothing to do at home, so I just look forward to someone coming to talk to me. Today, I suddenly received a message from my sister, and I was very happy. I immediately let people know Cleaning the courtyard, making tea and arranging flowers, just to welcome the distinguished guests. As soon as I had time to spare, I hurriedly welcomed them."
While talking, Madam Liu led her eldest granddaughter out of the door and held Bai Yunxi's hand with a smile.
"I heard the chirping of magpies early in the morning and thought something big was going to happen. It turned out that a distinguished guest was coming."
Listening to Mrs. Liu's hearty laughter, Bai Yunxi couldn't help but sigh. It felt soothing to look at the way they treated guests. Sure enough, the family was different and the way they treated people was different.
"I came here rashly. As long as my sister doesn't blame me for disturbing you."
Hearing Bai Yunxi being polite to her, Mrs. Liu gave her a look, turned around and rubbed her eldest granddaughter's hair.
"Girl Ling, hurry up and meet your grandmother of the Bai family and see if you still recognize her?"
The little girl smiled and saluted Baiyunxi, "Greetings to Grandma Bai, I always remember Grandma Bai, you are the kindest grandmother Ling'er has ever seen.
"Oh, you're so sweet. Get up. It's been almost two years since I last saw you in the blink of an eye. The little girl is getting more and more cute and cute."
"Don't praise her. She is just a skinny monkey. She is spoiled by me on weekdays and is lawless. At this moment, she looks cute and quiet, but she can jump up and down in the blink of an eye."
"Little girl, it's better to be more lively and lively. With you as my grandmother who loves you, we, Sister Ling, will naturally be as comfortable as we want. In the final analysis, we still have a deep relationship between our grandparents and our grandchildren."
The two of them exchanged a few words and then walked into the courtyard hand in hand. They looked at the clean and water-swept courtyard. Except for a few sunflowers blooming in the middle garden and a row of bamboos at the corner, the whole courtyard was simple and elegant. At first glance, You know that the hostess of this house has a cheerful personality.
Entering the hall, the guests and hosts took their seats, and Baiyunxi handed over the prepared invitations.
"There is a banquet at home. I would like to invite Liu Juren and the eldest lady to show their respect."
"Oh, this is such a happy event. I can't wait to be happy with you. To be cheeky, let alone receiving an invitation today, even if I didn't receive it, I would still have to follow my master to ask for a drink. Wedding wine.
"Then I will wait at home for my sister to come."
"It's easy to talk, there's no need to be so polite between us."
Mrs. Liu looked at Bai Yunxi's bright smile and couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. This person really has no perspective. His son was so ambitious that he came back with the title of No. 1 Scholar after a palace examination. He was really enviable to others.
When she learned that Mr. Wu Lang of the Bai family had won the title of Number One Scholar appointed by the officials, not to mention the dean, even her husband happily walked around the yard several times.
Ever since Wu Langjun entered the academy, he and his master have given him all their money, and he should be treated as a gift from the number one scholar.
Listening to Mrs. Liu's inner voice, Bai Yunxi curled her mouth and drank some water to moisten her throat.
"Actually, I have one more thing to ask for today. Please help me, sister."
Madam Liu was stunned for a moment when she heard Bai Yunxi's tone, and nodded with a smile.
"If I can make my old sister speak, I will definitely be able to do what she wants, but it doesn't matter."
"Then I'll thank you sister first."
Bai Yunxi no longer kept it secret, and directly made her purpose clear, with a pleading look in her eyes.
"I've troubled my old sister to help you match up the two young ones. If it happens, I will definitely prepare a big matchmaking gift for you. Thank you for facilitating this good marriage. To be honest, I want to break my head, and Sister Liu is the one who is suitable. As a matchmaker, go to the Zhang family and say a few nice words to my Xiaowu. I will bow to my elder sister here first."
With that said, Bai Yunxi stood up and thanked Mrs. Liu for her blessing, and was immediately supported by someone. After Mrs. Liu was surprised, she immediately raised her head and laughed.
"Haha... Oh my God, Duke Zhuangyuan asked to marry the only daughter of the Zhang family. Not to mention, if you think about it seriously, it is really a good marriage. I will accept this matter and I will come to you tomorrow to make peace."
Mrs. Liu patted Bai Yunxi's hand and clicked her tongue,
"I haven't been a matchmaker for a long time. If we can make a good-looking couple, I won't be willing to extrapolate such blessings."
The two sat down again, and Mrs. Liu couldn't help but sigh in her heart. The Zhang family had an only daughter in their life, and they wished they could hold it in their hands and protect it. If they recruit Xiao Wu as their son-in-law, Sister Shan will definitely be able to live a happy life in the future. Be more relaxed.
Bai Jiawulang is calm and reliable, and there is a master-disciple relationship between the two families. With this relationship, he will not treat Sister Shan badly no matter what. Entrusting your daughter to the Bai family is indeed a good marriage.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Liu slapped her thigh,
"I think this matter is very close. I will come to inquire about it tomorrow."
Bai Yunxi was so grateful to see her so happy, which proved that she had not chosen the wrong person.
"Then I'll leave it to Sister Liu. To be honest, before I came to the county, I hadn't met Sister Zhang. It's said that a family with a daughter is sought after by hundreds of families. Please, Sister Liu, say more good things for my Xiaowu. I really like Sister Shan'er."
"Okay, okay."
"We are the man, and we have to show our sincerity when proposing to the woman. If nothing else, we must show our attitude first."
To propose marriage, we have to lower our posture, let the woman see our sincerity, and let the woman's parents feel at ease to hand over their daughter to them.
It is said that if a marriage wants to go smoothly, the man and the woman must pay attention to the match of family status. Now their family has been raised by Xiaowu. Although the foundation is not as good as that of the Zhang family, it will definitely go further than the Zhang family in the future. After all, Xiaowu's talent is here.
Bai Yunxi drank two cups of tea at Liu's house, and then got up and left, saying that he would not keep any food. When Mrs. Liu saw this posture, she still had something to understand, and she clapped her hands directly.
"Well, our top scholar will take office soon, and the marriage cannot be delayed. At least we have to settle the marriage first. I don't want to think about eating, wouldn't it be better to go to the Zhang family for a meal?"
If she were to say, such a good young man should be seized, and the six ceremonies should be passed first, otherwise it would be a disaster.
I shouldn't say this, if someone else takes the initiative, the Zhang family will lose a good son-in-law.
