Mrs. Zhang came closer and said, "That's a good relationship. I have a good marriage here for Xiao Fei."

"My eldest grandson is eighteen this year. He is a talented person. He passed the scholar examination last year and will take the examination in August."

"I met your Xiao Fei the other day, and I felt that the two children are perfect for each other. We are also close to each other. This is not a rare and good marriage!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen hesitated, "This -"

Mrs. Zhang said: "My nephew and daughter-in-law, let me tell you the truth. This means that my eldest grandson has not yet taken the provincial examination. If he wins, I am afraid that the matchmaker will even break the threshold of my family."

"By that time, the person you are proposing to marry will be either the daughter of the wealthy man's wife, or the daughter of someone else's family."

"Think about it, if your little Fei marries my eldest grandson, the next lady will not be able to escape. Where can you find such a good thing?"

When Mrs. Chen heard this, she felt that it made sense.

If this daughter is destined to be a talented scholar, if she marries a husband who can become an official in the future, she will naturally be honored by her husband and her wife.

Now that her daughter has such good looks and is so good at making money, she feels that ordinary young men are not worthy of her daughter. If she marries a scholar and is really successful in the future, then Xiao Fei can be an official wife in the future. That would be great. No more.

Li Chunhua watched from the side, and her mother-in-law seemed to be tempted.

She just felt that something was wrong, so she quickly moved out quietly and called Fang'er over, "Go and find the second mistress quickly, and tell her that her cousin is here to propose marriage to Xiao Fei!"

Now the servants in the family are called Grandma Li Chunhua and Second Grandma Lanzhi, and Lanzhi is the head of the family.

Fang'er responded and ran away quickly.

Fortunately, the fish pond was not too far from the house, only a mile or two. Fang'er ran to the fish pond and told Lanzhi. Lanzhi threw the things in her hands and ran back with Fang'er. I'm afraid that if my mother-in-law agrees in a hurry, she will be in trouble.

Although Mrs. Chen said she was moved, she was not stupid and could not agree immediately.

No matter how satisfied she is, this girl's family always has to be more reserved.

She said hesitantly: "Cousin, the head of the family is going to sea now. I can't make a decision on such a big matter by myself."

Mrs. Zhang patted her thigh and said, "What are you saying? You are Xiao Fei's mother, and it's your turn to make the decision."

"It will take at least a year and a half to go to sea, and it may take as long as three or two years. Then when will we go? Xiao Fei is getting older!"

"Young girl, your youth is limited, so you can't delay it!"

Chen just laughed.

Mrs. Zhang added: "In my family, my eldest son and my younger son have each opened a shop, and their annual income is more than two thousand taels of silver. Don't worry, nephew and daughter-in-law. If Xiao Fei marries into my family, she will have no worries about her life."

Just as he was talking, Lanzhi entered the door.

She panted and slowly walked into the house.

Go to the hall and greet Mr. Zhang first.

Mrs. Zhang had seen her the last time she came back and said with a smile, "Lanzhi is getting better and better after not seeing her for the past few days."

Lanzhi smiled and said, "Thanks for the compliment from my aunt."

"Mom, there was something going on in that fish pond just now -" he said while giving her a wink.

Mrs. Chen got up quickly when she saw it, and the two of them walked to the flower hall next door. Mrs. Chen asked, "What's wrong?"

Lanzhi whispered: "Mother, this marriage is not appropriate, so mother quickly refused."

Chen said: "Why is that? I think his family's conditions are pretty good, and the child has made progress, and now he has won the scholarship. If he can win the scholarship in the future, Xiao Fei can also be an official's wife. Isn't that great? ?”
