Chapter 302 Promised Marriage
Mrs. Xu said to Yun again: "I thought, since the eldest girl has such knowledge, it would be too worthless if Mrs. Wei's field is sold. It is better to let the eldest lady take good care of it."
Yun's smile was a bit bitter, she thought about asking her daughter to help, but her daughter had already rejected her, and she used the reason she used to persuade her not to worry about farming all the time.
Mrs. Xu continued: "To tell you the truth, Mrs. Wei, my family has a small farm ten miles east of the city. It's a little far away. It's troublesome for me to take care of it. I thought about giving it as a thank you gift. Send it to the big girl."
"How can this be done? Mrs. Xu can't do it!" Yun said hurriedly.
"The eldest girl not only helped me with the rice seedlings, but also cured my father-in-law's cough. She can afford this gift." Mrs. Xu said with a smile.
Immediately afterwards Mrs. Xu added: "I hit it off very well with the eldest girl. Not only me, but also my old lady and the old man also like him. My Xu family is also a farming and studying family. I started farming, and I especially love the lively and straightforward young lady. temper."
Mr. Yun was stunned for a while, then looked at Mrs. Xu's breezy face, and seemed to understand something in a daze.
Ms. Xu said that this is a thank you gift, but it should be more than just a thank you gift.
If it was purely a thank you gift, it shouldn't be given now, it should have been given a few days ago.
A few days ago, Mrs. Xu just mentioned to her about the marriage of the two families, but she has not responded for a long time.
Two days ago, she just let out the news that she wanted to sell her 400 mu of land, and Mrs. Xu came to look for her. While persuading her not to sell the land, she wanted to give her daughter a farm...
If Mrs. Yun didn't understand the meaning of this, she might have been Mrs. Wei for so many years in vain.
After thinking for a moment, Yun's face became a little more smiling: "Madam Xu loves my daughter so much, it is really a blessing for her to cultivate for several lifetimes. I accepted this thank you gift from Madam on behalf of my daughter, and I will come back to you when I have a chance." Let the little girl thank Mrs. Xu face to face."
Mrs. Xu understood, and continued to say: "I don't know how Mrs. Wei thought about the matter I mentioned to Mrs. Wei last time? I thought, if the two families can get along well in the future, the affairs of the Wei family will It's my Xu family's business, we should help each other and advance and retreat together."
When these words reached Yun's heart, the smile on his face involuntarily became wider.
"I'm really happy in my heart, but Ruo'er has a bit of a wild temper, and I'm afraid he will make Mr. Xu take more care of him in the future." Yun said.
Seeing Yun's let go, Mrs. Xu beamed with joy.
The two talked for a long time, and finally Mrs. Yun personally sent Mrs. Xu to the door, and then watched her carriage go away.
After returning, Yun went to the front yard to find Wei Mingting, and informed Wei Mingting of the matter.
Wei Mingting frowned: "You promised too soon, you should discuss this matter with Ruo'er. And I said before, your daughter doesn't have to marry so early."
Yun explained: "Don't worry, my husband. Now I just agreed to Mrs. Xu's official matchmaking. After that, she will arrange for a matchmaker to come to the door, and the marriage will be proposed later. The marriage will be set first, and the official marriage date can be postponed. Wait for the process After leaving, it will be two or three years before Ruo'er officially gets married."
Yun added: "Don't worry, my husband, I don't dare to make decisions on this matter alone. When Mrs. Xu expressed her attitude last time, I wrote to the old man and old lady in the capital. The two elders are also very satisfied with the Xu family."
Mr. Yun's daring to give Madam Xu a clear attitude today, apart from the fact that the Xu family really cares about her, it is the confidence given to her by the old uncle and old lady in the capital.
Since the old uncle and the old lady both nodded their heads, it is not self-assessment for her to agree.
Hearing this, Wei Mingting, who originally wanted to say something, could only suppress the words in his heart.
These things in the mansion are indeed not what he is good at, and what his wife said is also true, the Xu family is indeed a good match, he can't find any faults, and it is reasonable for his daughter to discuss relatives at her age, and he has no reason to stop it.
After thinking about it for a while, Wei Mingting said to Yun: "Madam should talk to Ruo'er more about the matter of getting married. She hasn't been back home for a long time, and she's not used to the life in the deep house. If she doesn't like that kind of life, you'd better treat her like that." Her thoughts come first, I don't ask her to be rich, I only want her to be safe and well."
"Don't worry, my husband, I will talk to Ruo'er properly." Yun promised.
Immediately afterwards, the voice explained lovingly: "If Er is our daughter, I hope that her life will be safe and smooth. I have also considered letting her marry a farming family according to her temperament, so that she will not have to worry too much in the future. Too restrained. But my husband also knows that these days, those farming families have a hard time, unlike the Xu family, who have no worries about food and clothing."
"Besides, this Xu family is not an ordinary family. They are farming and studying families. Mrs. Xu values Ruoer very much. She also understands all the things about Ruoer. Not only does she not think there is any problem, but she appreciates it very much. It is precisely because Without such worries, I will agree to come down."
"Well, Madam and Ruo'er can make up their minds." Wei Mingting didn't say anything more about this matter.
After reporting the whole matter to Wei Mingting, Yun returned to the backyard, called Nanny Li and Nanny Zhang to him, and explained to them the matters related to the marriage negotiation with the Xu family.
Nanny Li is an old nanny who came out of the Earl's Mansion, and she knows the most about the rules.
And Nanny Zhang became Yun's right-hand man when Nanny Li was being punished, so now the two have equal status in the mansion.
Yun called both of them to explain the matter, which shows that she attaches great importance to the upcoming marriage negotiation with the Xu family.
Knowing that the matter of discussing marriage with the Xu family has been finalized, Nanny Li and Nanny Zhang have different expressions.
Nanny Li gritted her teeth secretly, unexpectedly this matter is really going to happen! Wei Qingruo's cheap **** really got lucky!
He was already so arrogant before, with the marriage of the Xu family, wouldn't that little bastard's eyes grow to the top of his head? At that time, I really don't know how to deal with her, an old woman!
Nanny Zhang is a little worried, she is Madam's person on the surface, but she is actually the eldest lady's person. She knows that the eldest lady is not satisfied with this marriage, and now the wife has agreed without asking the eldest lady's consent. If the young lady knows about it, she probably will feel very uncomfortable, right?
So Nanny Zhang bit the bullet and asked Yun: "Madam, does Missy know about this?"
"She only knows that both the Xu family and I have this intention. I haven't told her about the promise today, and don't tell her when you two go back." Yun said.
Hearing that, Nanny Zhang was even more worried. She had to find a chance to pass the news to the young lady so that the young lady could be prepared.
