The Famous Detective of the Red Mansion - Chapter 367
[Chapter 366 Why not cook raw rice to mature rice?]
Under the service of Second Sister You, I was full and full, and finally it was time to discuss the business.
So Mrs. You came forward to replace her two daughters, and she didn’t dare to be level with Sun Shaozong on the bench, so she moved a bench and sat on it with her head up and her face full of flattery.
Faced with such an old lady You, Sun Shaozong couldn’t help but think of the classic lines in Journey to the West: He is like a dog…
However, since the time of crossing, he has long been accustomed to similar expressions. Although the old lady in front of him seems exaggerated, it is not impossible to look directly.
“cough.”
Sun Shaozong cleared his throat and said, “It is said that Brother Liu’s marriage is not an outsider like me, but now his only aunt is thousands of miles away, and he may not be able to return to the capital in three or five years. I specially asked me to take care of one or two, so I had to catch the ducks on the shelves and be an elder.”
Liu Xianglian’s uncle, who used to be an inspection officer in the city defense camp [seventh grade], suddenly appointed Fuzhou garrison [sixth grade] a few years ago, so he dragged his family and brought his family to Fuzhou to take office – precisely because he lost his aunt’s restraint , Liu Xianglian has been so happy recently, and she doesn’t think about studying and making progress at all.
Against such a background, Sun Shaozong, a long-time acquaintance brother, came forward, but it was still reluctant to say the past. Besides, looking at the appearance of this You family, he didn’t care so much about ‘sections’.
Speaking of…
After setting up a marriage for this kid, shouldn’t it be time to find him a businessman?
Otherwise, first pull to become a master, to replace the vacancy left by Cheng Rixing?
Sun Shaozong began to think about Liu Xianglian’s life after marriage. Who knew that Mrs. You hesitated for a while, but smiled apologetically: “The third sister’s affairs are easy to discuss, but I don’t know how Master Sun will prepare for my second sister. deal with?”
This woman really wanted to tie the two marriages together. It is estimated that if the second sister You can’t settle the matter, the third sister You’s ‘good negotiation’ will be turned into not ‘good negotiation’.
Liu Xianglian obviously heard the point, and immediately said: “Then it goes without saying that being able to get such a gentle and virtuous woman to become a concubine is simply a blessing from her previous life!”
After speaking, he looked at Sun Shaozong pitifully and said, “Brother, do you think this is the truth?”
This guy was just at the wine table, chatting with the third sister You about the popular Kunqu Opera. It was a late meeting. The closer the two heads were, the more body fluids they exchanged in the air, and they were almost stuck together. !
Now that he loves Third Sister Nayou so much, he naturally hopes that Sun Shaozong will respond to this matter quickly.
Anyway~
It will fulfill them!
Thinking like this, Sun Shaozong reluctantly started talking about taking a concubine.
Taking a concubine is different from marrying a wife. To put it bluntly, it is actually a transaction.
Since it was a transaction, then Mrs. You was a ‘sincere businessman’, so Sun Shaozong didn’t take those vain words and directly expressed his willingness to pay 500 taels of silver as a dowry gift.
As soon as I heard this number, the snot bubbles of the beautiful old lady You came out!
Just as she was about to respond, she suddenly remembered what Third Sister You said, so Ai Ai changed her tune during the busy period: “Sir, this condition is naturally excellent, but… it’s just that there are only two daughters under my knees, and they both get married together. Go out, the little woman is lonely and helpless, it is really…”
As he said that, he rubbed the handkerchief on his dry face.
Sun Shaozong thought about it for a while, and then he understood what she was thinking. Xiangling’s mother is in the house, so adding another one is nothing, so he said: “The mother of one of my concubines, the concubine’s mother, is now living in the residence. My family, if you want, you might as well come and be her companion.”
“Will, will, will the little woman!”
Seeing that if the younger sister expected, even she could go to the gate of the mansion to enjoy the wealth and honor together, Mrs. You naturally responded with a chorus of voices.
Just as he was about to finalize the marriage, he suddenly remembered a difficult matter. If this matter was not resolved first, the matter of taking a concubine would be just an empty talk.
Thinking of this, she hesitated again: “In addition…in addition…”
Seeing that she was going to make further progress, Sun Shaozong was a little displeased. He tossed his sleeves and urged impatiently, “If you have any other requirements, please tell me together, so that I don’t have to go back and forth!”
“It’s not really a requirement.”
That old lady still said hesitantly: “It’s just that when the little woman hadn’t remarried, she once…”
“Mother, come in first!”
Before Mrs. You could finish her sentence, Third Sister You called out from inside.
Madam You suddenly stopped her mouth and stood up embarrassedly to accuse Sun Shaozong: “Master Sun, look at this… The little lady goes first… Go first…”
Since it was discussing a life-long event, and there was some communication between mother and daughter, it was also common sense, so Sun Shaozong waved his hand casually, indicating that she would be free.
That old lady, as if she had been granted amnesty, then turned her back and stepped back to the door of the inner room. When she used her butt to lift half of the curtain, Third Sister You waited impatiently and pulled her in. Involuntarily, he pulled it to the head of the bed.
“Mother!”
I heard Third Sister You lowered her voice and said sternly, “Are you dazed by Yinzi? Can you mention the marriage of the Zhang family at this time?!”
But it turned out that when Mrs. You had not remarried, she had married the Zhang family, who was the head of Huangzhuangzhuang, and betrothed the second sister You to Zhang Hua, the eldest son of the Zhang family.
Although Mrs. You and her daughter remarried later, Zhang’s family gradually became a broken house, especially that Zhang Hua was addicted to gambling, so even his parents turned against him and drove Zhang Hua out of the house – but this marriage did not happen. void.
Therefore, if you want to marry Second Sister You to another person, you must first find a way to get rid of this marriage.
Sanjie You stopped her mother just now, because she was afraid she would stab the matter.
But Mrs. You also had her own reasoning, she glared at her old eyes and scolded her in a low voice: “It’s so fooling to think that this Master Sun is like that little white face? Who in the capital doesn’t know that his eyes are like electricity, and his case is like a god? If he finds out about this later, not to mention that this marriage is going to be filthy, our family is afraid that we will have to eat a lot of them!”
Third Sister You thinks that this is the truth, and both mother and daughter are in trouble for a while.
After a long while, Third Sister You suddenly stomped her feet and said, “For today’s plan, I’m afraid I’ll have to cook the raw rice and cook it, and then I’ll worry about it!”
“Raw rice cooked cooked rice?”
Madam You’s eyes lit up: “You mean…”
Third Sister You said without hesitation: “Master Sun has already decided to take my sister as a concubine, this concubine is not comparable to marrying a wife, and there is no need to choose an auspicious day, just let them achieve good things while the heat is hot today. When the matter is spread out again, I am not afraid that Master Sun will not help to retire.”
Madam You heard her nods again and again, but Second Sister You’s cheeks were burning with embarrassment, she stomped her feet and said coquettishly, “How does this make, how does this make it! What can I do in the future when it spreads out…”
“Good sister!”
Third Sister You hugged her by the waist, leaned into her ear and said, “You have to take care of your eyes before you can say anything about the future—you must not be temperamental in a while, and only use your careless and diligent means. Come out, the obsessed he can’t bear you, this is the right thing!”
Mrs. You also rushed to persuade her to let her not worry about her face first, and it would be more affordable to earn money.
Second Sister You was really clueless. Impressed by her mother, she was most greedy for the life of brocade clothes and jade food. After being persuaded by the two of them, she humbly and humiliated her.
