Greetings, Ninth Uncle

Madam Zhai was talking, her eyes showing contemplation: "If according to what you said, the eldest lady of the Cheng family can control Brother Qing, has a virtuous and sensible temperament, and is also a good person in charge of the family, then marry her for you. It's not impossible to be a successor."

Chapter 50 Dowry

When Zhai Yanlin heard this, he was stunned. As if remembering something, Mrs. Zhai suddenly became happy and said cheerfully, "Yes, it's just right for her to be Brother Qing's mother, why didn't I think of her before!"

The more Mrs. Zhai thought about it, the more feasible she felt. Cheng Yujin was born in a Hou family, and her first mother was the owner of Qingfu County, and her status was very respectable and noble. Although Cheng Yujin is an adoptive, it is not considered a serious royal bloodline, but Cheng Yuanxian's Hou position can not be faked, and Cheng Yujin was trained according to the standard of the eldest daughter since childhood, whether it is receiving people or housekeepers, she is a good hand. .

Thinking like this, Mrs. Zhai vaguely remembered that some time ago, the Cheng family gave the emperor a screen to celebrate his birthday, which was very sacred. It seems that the person with the main needle of the screen is Cheng Yujin.

Mrs. Zhai herself was surprised. The situation of Cai Guogong's mansion was special. She originally thought that it would be more difficult to choose a suitable successor, but she did not expect that there was actually a perfect match. Cheng Yujin has a noble status and is known for his filial piety. Such a person will not lose the rank of the Duke's Mansion, and even if he takes it out, he can support the appearance of Mrs. Cai Guogong. In addition, she is very gentle and sensible, virtuous and filial, and can manage the family of the Duke's Mansion. The most important thing is that she can manage Zhai Qing and will be a good stepmother in the future.

The more Mrs. Zhai thought about it, the better she felt, so she said to Zhai Yanlin in a negotiating tone: "Guo Gong, what do you think? The identity and temperament of the eldest lady of the Cheng family are suitable. You are busy with external affairs and have no time to care about brother Qing. , And I'm getting older and weaker, and sometimes I can't keep an eye on it. The eldest lady of the Cheng family is young, has poetry and books, and has patience, so it's just right for her to take care of Qing'er."

Zhai Yanlin finally knew what he was thinking about in a flash just now. He has reached middle age and has experienced many ups and downs, and he is no longer as emotionally rich as a young man, with joy and anger. His state of mind was like a pool of stagnant water, but at this moment, Zhai Yanlin seemed to have been pierced by his mother, and it was rare for him to feel embarrassed and shy: "It's all up to the mother. As long as the mother thinks she is good, the son has nothing else to do."

Mrs. Zhai was a little surprised to hear that. Zhai Yanlin rarely mentioned women. Even if it was Brother Qing's mother, who had been married to him for many years, and gave birth to a son to the Duke's government, Mrs. Zhai had never heard Zhai Yanlin praise his wife. it is good. But today, Zhai Yanlin turned out to be uncharacteristically, following her words and admitting that Cheng Yujin was outstanding.

After thinking about it again, Mrs. Zhai understood, yes, today Zhai Yanlin went to Yichūn Hou's mansion to socialize. He was meeting with Miss Cheng's family. In this way, Zhai Yanlin is very satisfied with Miss Cheng herself.

The main reason for marrying a daughter-in-law is to take care of Zhai Qing, and it is rare that his son also likes it, so everyone is happy. Mrs. Zhai was very satisfied, and Xu Xu said, "I have long heard that there is a big girl in the Marquis of Yichūn, who is very good in life, but at that time I just heard a sentence and didn't take it to heart. Although the Cheng family has these things The years are getting worse and worse, but after all, it is still a marquis, and the title can be passed down to one generation, which just fell on the father of Mrs. Cheng. After the uncle of the Cheng family became the prince, she became the daughter of a marquis, and her status was even more valuable. Success. Because of this, I never thought about the Cheng family. The second girl will not stay in the Hou Mansion in the future. It is impossible to commit a crime. The eldest girl has both political integrity and talent, and many ladies regard her as their daughter-in-law in private. If you don’t talk about trouble, you may not be able to ask for it.”

Now that there is no one in the room, Mrs. Zhai said the truth, not that they didn't think of Cheng Yujin, but that they didn't think about it at all. Cheng Yujin used to be famous, and her family, family, ability and ability were not bad at all. Such a person would not worry about marrying at all. She could choose the princes and families. How could it be seen that Cai Guogong's mansion was the stepmother to fill the house. Because she knew her own situation in her heart, Mrs. Zhai didn't even come forward to make trouble.

Zhai Yanlin felt a little uncomfortable hearing this, but he also had to admit that the difference between the first marriage and the second marriage was too great. Even for a man, when he married a successor, the conditions for the woman were much lower in all aspects. Zhai Yanlin has developed extremely well in the DPRK over the years, and the growth of power has made up for his disadvantage in age, but he is still a little far from choosing one of the best ladies and ladies in the capital at will.

In particular, Zhai Yanlin also has a six-year-old son.

Zhai Yanlin didn't answer, but Mrs. Zhai brought back many memories, and told Zhai Yanlin about old things: "If it was before, I wouldn't mention it at all, so I don't have to make fun of myself. That old lady of Cheng's family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. , she has a big heart. When she was a girl, she was restless. Later, something happened to the Xue family. Instead, she has reached the third generation and raised a very outstanding granddaughter. She hopes to marry her granddaughter into a high-class family and sell it at a high price. The eldest girl was dismissed from her relatives and her reputation was damaged, so she had to settle for the next best thing, and I'm afraid her eyes are still on the top of her head."
