Chapter 1337: Look at each other (Part 2) (Two in one)
Before the Cao family's Tianhui could finish her career, her parents and brothers were already anxious about the choice of son-in-law. There was also a seventeen-year-old Miss Sun in the Grand Secretary's House, which was also enough for the old couple Xu Yuanmeng to worry.
As for the eldest grandson Shuhede, although he is nineteen years old, he is not young anymore, but in this world, hiring a wife is different from marrying a daughter. Not to mention being nineteen years old, it is not difficult to find someone even if he is a few years older.
Women are different. Even if they are filial to their mothers, it is natural, but delays are delays. If they are not determined, they will delay for another one or two years, and it will be even more difficult to find a person of the same age. They either have a low marriage or have to be a second wife.
Shuhede had long told his grandfather and grandmother that he would let the second elder worry about his sister's marriage first and not be anxious about his marriage.
Seeing that all grandchildren are about to have a filial piety period, the granddaughter Mingyue's marriage has not yet appeared, and Xu Yuanmeng and his wife are also a little angry.
Shuhede had to comfort him, and he felt a little resentful towards the Fucha family.
Before his mother died of illness, she said it was almost the same as his cousin's aunt, the fourth wife of the Fucha family, who wanted to get married.
But at that time, Fu Qing's fiancée died of illness, Mingyue was waiting for the election, and she still needed to go through the pretext of the talent show. It was difficult to make up for the time being, and things were delayed.
Then the eldest wife died of illness, and the brother and sister were mourning, so the marriage was delayed.
Unexpectedly, before they could filial piety, Fu Qing wanted to keep his father's filial piety again.
No one mentioned the marriage between the two families anymore. Whether it was Xu Yuanmeng or Shu Hede, it was not interesting to mention it.
The Fucha family has produced a prince's wife and not only became royal relatives, but unless there are major changes, the Fucha family will become a descendant.
If Li Rongbao is dead, if he refuses his kindness, Fu Qing, a benefactor, will not be able to escape.
Fu Qing's wife's candidate is not something that the fourth wife of the Fucha family can make the decision. Even without Li Rongbao, there is still the surviving Ma Qi, and the fourth prince of the Fucha family's son-in-law.
Xu Yuanmeng knew his own situation and knew that he could not get to the top, so he did not consider the Fucha family early on.
In fact, with the family background of the Grand Secretary’s House, the granddaughter will not have to worry about marrying no matter what.
It was just that the Grand Secretary and the old lady felt sorry for their granddaughter and were afraid that their granddaughter would suffer, so she refused to give up easily. She thought that she could choose a family among relatives and have a relative to be a relative, so she could be more pity for her granddaughter.
Previously, there were teenagers in the other two families who were about the same age. Because the eldest wife himself fell in love with Fu Qing, the old couple did not want to go against their daughter-in-law's wishes, so they did not answer the words from the other two families.
Now the Fucha family has changed, and the teenagers of the two families have also been engaged and married.
Xu Yuanmeng had no choice but to look for it in the old friends of his disciples, but there were more or less regrets and it was difficult to satisfy people.
The Grand Secretary was afraid that his wife would be anxious, so he didn't want to tell her in detail, so he called Changsun to the study and ordered: "Mingyue's marriage cannot be delayed anymore. Not only do I care about it, but you should also pay attention. After you leave the filial piety period, go out more often. Among classmates, friends, or their brothers and nephews, there is no engagement. As long as you have a good character and a poor family background, it doesn't matter."
As for the legitimate birth of the illegitimate birth, Shuhede would have a clear idea if he didn't need to give him a special order.
There is a difference between legitimate and illegitimate. In terms of the family line of the Grand Secretary’s Mansion, in addition to the royal family, even the illegitimate sons of the royal family’s royal family, their grandchildren will not choose.
Perhaps it is precisely because the old man can distinguish between legitimate and illegitimate, that the inner house of the Grand Secretary's Mansion is quiet and there are no such messy things.
Shuhede's two uncles were also at peace, and the old man and his wife chose for the concubine's son, both of whom were gentle in nature, just to save some trouble and not bully the eldest wife's oligarch.
If Mrs. Tai had not been in poor spirits in recent years, the Shuhede brothers and sisters would have to work hard for their elders to get married. The old man would have separated the two concubines long ago.
But now seeing them being peaceful, the old man thought about staying there for two more years.
A single tree cannot make a forest. Changsun has no brothers. It is better to be close to his cousins. If one of them becomes successful, it will become a helper.
Shuhede was filial at the end of April, and Xu Yuanmeng now told his grandson to be careful and asked him to consider the candidate first.
Shuheld agreed, and had already passed all the candidates he knew in his heart. When he thought of Tianyou, he felt a little regretful.
Cao Yong, the head of the Cao family, had no illegitimate brothers, he also had a wife but no concubine, and the population of Cao's house was also simple.
Several aunts from the older generation of the Cao family mostly refer to the marriage of the royal family, which shows their family style and upbringing.
I was in love with Tianyou and had it been a match for Cao Zhan if it weren't for the palace's marriage, my sister would have matched me.
The grandmother at home was old and her mother was not in good health before her death. The younger sister started to take charge of housework at the age of teenagers, and was well-organized and could afford the eldest son's wife.
If not, my cousin would not like my sister and would want to hire her as a wife.
Cao Zhan has already gotten engaged, and it is useless to think too much. Although there are some other people who are not bad, they have to choose carefully.
When he came out of his grandfather's study, Shu Hede's frown was a lot more depressed. He no longer thought about the regret that he could not take the imperial examination, but he was all focused on planning for his sister.
Most of my familiar friends have been married, and those who have not married have made a marriage appointment. However, among their brothers, there are unmarried boys who are about the same age as their sister.
But my family is poor and I really want to marry a family of aristocratic families. If the girl is wronged, who can I rely on?
Grandpa and grandmother are old, and their age is placed here, and they are not worth enough.
The orphans who have lost their father and mother should have their own mothers.
But one of the two uncles died of illness and the other was placed outside, so they were not reliable at all.
Shuhed hesitated, and suddenly remembered someone in his mind.
But no matter what he thinks of the other party, the girl always needs to look at him and his grandparents nodded to count.
Speaking of the two families, they are quite similar.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, it was a deserted family, and the marriage between the two families was of no benefit to the Grand Secretary, but Shuhede just wanted to make the girl live a comfortable life, so how could he be willing to use the girl's big affairs to help himself?
But I have only seen that man a few times. Although he has a similar temper and his friendship is limited, he asked someone to come to his house for no reason, but he seemed abrupt. He always had to find a Yuzi.
Shuhed was hesitant and accidentally swept the corners of his eyes to the bookshelf and fell onto a book.
He stood up, with a naughty look on his face, and called the servant to instruct: "Give me my visitor to Cao's mansion, ask their uncle Cao Zhan when he will take a break, and then he said I have something to invite..."
Before he finished speaking, someone outside the door laughed and said, "Is this a legendary fate? I came to find Borong, and Borong also wanted to find me?"
But it was God's arrival.
Shuheld smiled on his face and hurriedly got up to greet him.
Seeing Tianyou wearing a guard, Shuhede was stunned and said, "Chengyi is the only one who has returned from the palace?"
Tianyou smiled and said, "I am working as a morning shift today. I have been out of the palace for a while. I came to visit a colleague who was recuperating. I remembered that Borong's mansion was right in front of me, so I came without a warning and became an uninvited guest."
The Eight Banners of the Capital City are mostly distributed according to the banner.
This is not the case for the Cao family. His family is in Zhengbai Banner, but his old house is in the west, rather than near Chaoyangmen and Dongzhimen like the other two white banner families.
But Shuhede's house is located east of the capital, near Chaoyang Gate.
Shuheld shook his head and said, "It's not that I haven't been here. If I really have to send a post before coming to the door, I am the heretic." As he spoke, he called Tianyou to sit down and told the servant to have tea.
Since they met again outside the Fucha family last summer, the two have resumed contact with each other in the past. After more than half a year, they have a fewer friendships than when they were studying in the flag in the early years.
Tianyou has also been to Shuhede's study.
Looking at the collection of books full of three walls and the books more than one foot high on several tables, Tianyou smiled and said, "Borong's knowledge is solid, and after the precipitation of this subject, I think I will be confident in the next subject."
Shuhede smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said, "Grandfather has made the decision. After I get out of service, I will make up for the exam for the cabinet secretary..."
Tianyou was very surprised when he heard this.
With Shuhede's homework and knowledge, the provincial examination is not Kan 2. If the examination is not extremely lucky, it is okay to be on the list, and all it is difficult to grasp is the ranking.
Giving up the imperial examination and becoming an official may be a good thing for others, but it is a pity for Shuhede, who has always been diligent in studying.
Immediately, Tianyou thought of Xu Yuanmeng's intention to arrange it like this.
If someone else took the provincial examination, the imperial examination, and the examination, the Shujishi entered the Hanlin area, it would be even more appropriate.
But in that case, you have to wait until next year's provincial examination, and then the annual meeting examination, and you will pass the Jinshi. In addition to the first grade, even if you take the Shujishi and enter the Hanlin area, you will have to wait until three years to be appointed as an official.
It takes five or six years to go.
Shuhede can wait, but Xu Yuanmeng can't wait.
Xu Yuanmeng is over seventy years old, and no one knows how many years the old man can hold on.
In the officialdom, people have always been in a state of cold tea. If they are not spared, they will arrange their eldest grandson properly, and the elderly will not feel at ease.
Now, as the old man’s senior minister, he wants to support his grandson one or two, but it’s just a small task.
It was also five years before I could officially become an official in the imperial examination. If I took the imperial examination exam for the cabinet secretary, I would have completed my qualifications in five years and then explored the outside world. I would be the fifth-rank Tongzhi and the Zhili magistrate, and I started much higher.
However, in the officialdom, seniority has always been a priority.
In addition to being admitted to the cabinet's Secretariat by writing and special awards, some of them were selected as Jinshi who were not selected as Shujishi.
In this way, in the eyes of outsiders, the cabinet secretary is not as confident as the one who was born in Shujishi.
Tianyou didn't know how to comfort him, so he could only put his heart in his heart: "The old prime minister is kind. Borong is the eldest grandson. He needs to support the door. He should be more responsible when he goes. He should not be for others, but for your brother and sister, he should also think more openly, so as to save his depression and make the old prime minister sad." As he spoke, he also showed a little melancholy and helplessness.
If it were someone else, no matter how much comforted you, you would not be as real as Tianyou's words.
Because Tianyou is also the eldest son and grandson, he needs to support the door.
Tianyou, a Jinshi, had to abandon his civil servants and serve as military guards because he was the eldest son of his family. It was just the responsibility of the eldest son and he could not help himself.
Thinking that both of them were the eldest sons who were responsible for the family, Shuhede was closer to Tianyou in his heart, and he thought about how to speak so that he could follow his arrangements.
At this time, Tianyou said, "Even when I see Borong, I must remember one thing. I know there is a treasure that is hard to see for ordinary people. I want Jobrong to go out and appreciate it."
We are all from a family and have a good understanding of the calligraphy and paintings of the gods. Among classmates, especially Shuhede, the students, have a better vision.
In the early years, when everyone was studying at Liangbaiqi Banner, they often went to Liulichang to "find bargains".
Shuheld heard this and didn't speak, his expression was quite strange.
Now, it was Tianyou Nahan's turn and said, "What's wrong? But don't you settle for time?"
