    After returning home, when Lu Yan was chatting with her mother, she also talked about the fact that her grandmother seemed to be betrothing Yan Biao to Jing Xuan on purpose.

    Mrs. Marquis JinYuan Xiao Mingyun seemed to understand, "No wonder I saw your eldest aunt today, I was a little frowning." It is estimated that her sister-in-law, who has always been prudent and housekeeping, also has a headache.

    The eldest son Lu Heng has already received an errand to become an official in the court, and he looks at the problem more realistically, "I think Jing Xuan's level of talent and learning will end next year, not to mention winning the top three, but high school will definitely be fine.You can choose a good marriage in Beijing."

    It would be a loss to marry the daughter of a Liupin county magistrate.

    Lu Lin didn't care who Xiao Jingxuan married as his wife. After hearing from his sister that Mrs. Xiao's preference for Miss Yan was not even comparable to that of the granddaughter of the Xiao family, he was worried: "Today in Xiao's mansion, is there any chance for that cousin girl from the Yan family?Bad for you?"

    Both Xiao Mingyun and Mrs. Xiao are just maintaining face and relationship with in-laws, and it is even more impossible for the children to really have feelings for their grandmother who has no blood relationship.But who let filial piety sometimes crush people to death?

    Marquis JinYuan Residence has a prominent status, and the three heirs are all very promising. In the eyes of the noble families in Capital City, they are naturally sweet and sweet, and there are inevitably people who miss them. Lu Lin sees more of those who are born weakShe is also a woman who is often hypocritical and full of scheming.

    It's okay to be like Xiao Qingyue, after all, she is more courteous and caring towards his own sister, but he only glanced at Miss Yan from outside, and he still doesn't know what her nature is.

    It's just that here in Jinghua, there are always many women who think that they can reach the sky by virtue of their beauty. Lu Lin can't help but guard against the other party's intention to step on his sister's position.

    "Second brother is worrying too much." Lu Yan covered her mouth with a smile, and then said frankly: "Miss Yan's cousin doesn't talk much, she looks fine."

    Xiao Mingyun smiled faintly, "Your fourth aunt has always been straightforward and simple, so my daughter must be going the same way."

    Once upon a time, she also envied the freedom and self-will of the fourth younger sister, who was born as a prostitute, and was born higher than them.

    Even in the Xiao family's back house, she was held in the palm of her hand by her aunt, and she was pampered and pampered in every possible way. She didn't need to plan as painstakingly as her, and her aunt would choose a suitable marriage for her.Up to now, the mother-in-law is also wholeheartedly planning for her to let her granddaughter marry back to the Xiao family.

    Xiao Mingyun couldn't help smiling.

    At the same time, Yan Zhao also knew the main purpose of her mother bringing her to Capital City this time.

    Hearing that his grandmother intended to match her and Xiao Jingxuan, Yan Zhao was almost so surprised that he spit out a mouthful of tea.Ancient cousin cousin, how is this possible, just kidding.

    No wonder the eldest aunt and Xiao Qingyue had a cold attitude towards her. I'm afraid this matter is still wishful thinking of my grandmother.

    Xu Yan Zhao helped her take care of things for several years, in Xiao Mingjin's heart, her daughter is a wise and independent person, even such a lifelong event would be discussed with her first.

    Xiao Mingjin said with a gentle expression, "If you want, I will write to your father to explain this matter."

    Of course Yan Zhao was unwilling, but in the ancient times without any scientific authority, the reason that marriage of cousins could easily affect the health of offspring would certainly not be able to convince Xiao Mingjin and the old lady.Speaking of other things may also cause other right and wrong.

    Yan Zhao thought for a while, and chose to say directly, "Mother, I don't like cousin Jingxuan, and I don't want to marry him."

    Xiao Mingjin looked at his daughter carefully, and he did not feel any embarrassment when he mentioned his nephew.

    In ancient times, parents paid attention to the words of matchmakers. If Yan Zhao's words were heard by those rotten scholars who valued etiquette, they might still think it was outrageous.But who is Xiao Mingjin? She fell in love with Yan Zhao's father at first sight, and even made a fuss about marrying her regardless of her family status.

    She used to be able to let her own mind go, but today, she will not force her daughter to marry someone she doesn't like.

    Yan Zhao really understood Xiao Mingjin, she was just surprised and lost for a while, and then quickly accepted the fact.She also doesn't think that her nephew Jing Xuan is so good that her daughter must like him.

    Xiao Mingjin patted his daughter's head, "Since you don't like it, then that's all. The real wishful man still needs to be liked by himself."

    In fact, Yan Zhao didn't care about Ruyi Langjun at all, she just didn't want her cousins to be together.

    Xiao Mingjin sighed again, "It's just that if you miss Jingxuan, it will be difficult to find such a good marriage. Don't regret it, your father's official position in this life will probably end here."

    They have been husband and wife for many years, and Xiao Mingjin also sees it.Father Yan said that it sounds upright and upright, but it sounds bad because he is too honest, he doesn't like to flatter the superiors, and he is not good at making friends with local gentry families and managing relationships.In terms of being an official, not to mention comparing with Marquis JinYuan, even half of her elder brother Xiao Tingen can't keep up.

    Yan Zhao smiled and said, "Mother despises my father and doesn't seek to make progress."

    "How come, your father is naturally very good in my heart. Although I envy your third aunt, I can't live with her life like that. It is enough for me to guard you and your father for the rest of my life." It's gone." Xiao Mingjin said sincerely.

    She doesn't have the ability of the third sister, she can secure the position of Mrs. Yipin Hou, teach Marquis JinYuan to be devoted to her, and make everyone admire her.No matter how enviable she was, these scenery were earned by the third sister's hard work.

    Afterwards, Xiao Mingjin also tactfully rejected his own mother. If it were someone else, Mrs. Xiao might be annoyed and feel that she didn't know what is good or bad, but who would let this be her biological daughter and granddaughter. In the end, he could only say angrily, "Oh, all of you are debt collectors."

    Xiao Mingjin was also a little guilty, "It's my daughter and Ah Zhao who failed my mother's kindness."

    My mother is very old, and it is time to take care of her life, and she still has to worry about these things for the younger generation.

    Mrs. Xiao didn't force her, she couldn't resist her daughter alone. It seems that her granddaughter and daughter have the same temper.

    She sighed and said, "Since Ah Zhao doesn't like Jingxuan, let her eldest aunt visit some houses in Capital City to see if there are any better ones."

    The matter of the granddaughter and the grandson will not be settled, but Mrs. Xiao still wholeheartedly wants to keep her granddaughter in Capital City. Maybe she can transfer her son-in-law back to Capital City in the future. The whole family is in front of her eyes and the Xiao family is taking care of her.You can also rest assured.

    Mrs. Xiao persuaded her daughter again: "The capital city is always better than the small place in the south of the Yangtze River. There are also many young talents in each family. The foundation of the Xiao family is here. Her uncle and aunt can take care of her. She will be wronged."

    Xiao Mingjin nodded, and didn't object, anyway, he was just looking at each other.

    This is a granddaughter's marriage, which cannot be avoided by the head of the house. Mrs. Xiao is getting old again, and she hasn't gone out to socialize much these years, so she has to leave it to her eldest daughter-in-law, Mrs. Fan.

    Fan originally thought that her mother-in-law called her over, and her sister-in-law was sitting beside her, planning to have a formal showdown, and her heart was pounding.

    Unexpectedly, she was asked to help her choose a good marriage in Capital City for her niece Yan Zhao, and she was both surprised and delighted.Even if there were still some doubts, they were completely dispelled after the old lady and sister-in-law seriously discussed and listed the conditions for the candidate.

    Unexpectedly, this trouble could be solved without her own action. Fan was really relieved. Seeing that her sister-in-law was pleasing to the eye in every way, she paid a hundred times more attention to her niece's marriage, and even said, "It's better to alsoPlease ask Mrs. Marquis JinYuan to inquire about it, maybe the scope can be expanded."

    The Xiao family is a well-known family in Capital City, but it is not as prominent as Marquis JinYuan Residence, and the wife of Marquis JinYuan, Xiao Mingyun, is not only close friends with the eldest princess, but also good friends with all the noble families.

    After all, the old lady and sister-in-law are quite picky. Not only must they have a good character and a gentle personality, but they must also have a solid family background. At least after marriage, they will have no worries about food and clothing. In this way, the niece can still be a royal wife in the future.

    This condition is almost hard to find even with a lantern, but if it has the face of the Xiao family and Marquis JinYuan Residence, it is not that there are no suitable candidates.

    Yan Zhao soon realized that the treatment of himself and his mother in Xiao's house had become better.

    Although the grandmother took care of her before, it would not be too bad in general, but after all, the grandmother is old and lacks energy, and the housekeeper is the eldest aunt Fan. Now it's down to the details, and the servants are more attentive in serving them.

    The reason for this change is not difficult to guess. She will not have any pimples in her heart, after all, she used to be far apart and rarely get along, so it may be difficult to say how deep the blood relationship is, more because you respect me three points, and I respect you three points.

    Seeing that even the aunt, who has always been strict with the rules, used Yan Zhao more than the maids in the mansion, Xiao Qingyue was not happy, and felt strange. Later, she learned from the aunt that the aunt was acting for Yan's family. The lady looks at the wedding.

    In other words, Miss Yan will not marry the eldest son Xiao Jingxuan.

    The situation became so fast that even the people in the mansion couldn't react.

    Xiao Qingyue muttered in private, "She is somewhat self-aware and knows that she is not good enough for her brother."

    It was Aunt Lan who was older and more experienced, and she warned her daughter: "Don't be petty, even if you don't like it, don't be indifferent to this cousin girl. This will not only make the old lady love her, but even the wife will become a real lady. My niece and niece get along."

    The wife values ​​her only son Xiao Jingxuan the most, as long as she doesn't touch the bottom line of this point, she will be very generous and proper.

    In addition to meeting suitable young talents in Capital City, the old lady also wanted Yan Zhao to go out with Fan's family more to socialize. The girl's family has a good reputation, and it will be easier to meet and marry.

    Fan said with a smile: "At the end of this month, Lu Yan's third sister's daughter will have a wedding banquet. It is estimated that all the wives of noble and noble families in Capital City will go there.Make a good impression, and it will be easier to see the marriage."

    Furthermore, it was a banquet held at a relative's house, and others would not say anything bad about Mrs. Marquis JinYuan's face.

    Apart from Mrs. Fan, the old lady really doesn't pay much attention to Lu Yan and Ji's affairs.

    When Yan Zhao, the granddaughter of the first relative, was married to Ji, the old lady sent a few large boxes of dowry treasures to Jiang Nan.

    But Fan's thought was very thorough, and the old lady couldn't find anything wrong, so she agreed.

    Thinking of her granddaughter's first appearance at the Capital City banquet, even if she can't steal the limelight from the host family, she has to dress up.Previously, the old lady opened a private treasury and gave Yan Zhao a lot of good things, but now she thinks that the jewelry materials are old and old-fashioned, so she insists on taking her granddaughter outside the house to buy some new and exquisite clothes and jewelry.

    Fan responded with a good voice.

    As long as the old lady doesn't interfere with her son's marriage, let alone such a trivial matter, even the unreasonable request, Fan's now will be obedient.
