Chapter 504: Is it the marriage-phobic group?
The old lady laughed again when she heard it, "At least she has to be like your mother!"
The eldest grandson's wife will be the mistress of the mansion in the future. She has to be capable and good at handling things! Family background is secondary, character and ability are the most important!
"Even if the wife that my eldest brother marries is not sensible, mother and grandmother will teach her well. Just look at us brothers and sisters, and you will know how capable the mistress of our house is!"
The old lady smiled until her eyes narrowed, and poked her forehead with her hand, "Don't be shy, and brag about yourself!"
"Isn't this the truth? Dad is always at the border, and everything at home is taken care of by grandmother and mother. It was grandmother and mother who raised us and educated us. It is all the credit of grandmother and mother that we can grow up so well!"
Xu Muhua boasted sincerely, and the people who listened naturally felt very happy.
The efforts of the elders, and the younger generation seeing and recognizing them is the greatest affirmation and reward for them.
The old lady was also somewhat moved, "You have always been a sensible and well-behaved child."
"Grandma taught me well!"
Xu Muhua sat with the old lady for a long time, until she saw a trace of fatigue on the old lady's face, and then she let the servants help the old lady to rest.
However, she was still a little worried about the old lady's health. Before leaving, she called the nanny who served her closely and gave her some instructions before going to Qinghe Garden.
She couldn't leave her sister behind, otherwise she would be sad.
Except for the few years when she was taken away by others, Xu Jinyu had always been very attached to her sister Xu Muhua.
Now that Xu Muhua is married and it is rare for her to come back, she cherishes this opportunity to get along with her even more.
Xu Muhua hugged her and whispered to her, asking her to take care of herself in the future.
"By the way, Jinyu is about to reach the age of marriage, what do you think about your marriage?"
Xu Muhua asked.
Xu Jinyu shook her head and said honestly: "It's up to mother when the time comes! Let mother choose, it doesn't matter to me."
Anyway, she didn't know anyone.
Xu Muhua remembered what her mother had mentioned to her before, and asked calmly, "Has your cousin come to the house recently?"
Xu Jinyu did not doubt him, and replied, "Cousin Yicong has been busy recently. He came once when my uncle and his family went back, and he hasn't come since then. My parents said that my cousin just entered the Hanlin Academy and might be busy for a while. My mother asked me to bring food to my cousin."
"Oh, then did you go?"
"Yes, but my cousin was not there when I went, so I gave the things to the servant!"
The Song family was not short of money. Song Yicong lived outside by himself, so he didn't need many servants, but he still needed a few to serve him anyway.
"Jinyu, what do you think of cousin Yicong?"
Xu Jinyu still didn't think much about it, "He's a good person. Even dad said that cousin Yicong will have a great future."
"Well, you are cousins, you should interact more in the future."
"Sister, mother said so too! Don't worry, Anan and I will treat cousin as our own brother!"
Looking at her face full of sincerity and determination, Xu Muhua suddenly became a little worried.
It seems that Jinyu has no other thoughts about Yicong!
If it is like this in the future, this marriage can't be concluded, right?
But thinking of this ancient marriage, she was uncertain again.
Forget it, let's wait and see, Jinyu is still young!
Xu Rui, who was meeting friends outside, was also found by the servants in the mansion, saying that the eldest lady was back. He sat with Feng Shaoqing and the others for a while and then he could not wait to go back home.
Feng Shaoqing and the others simply followed him to visit the Chengguogong Mansion.
Xu Muhua was not surprised to see Feng Shaoqing and the others.
"Brother Yuan, you are getting married soon, do you have any ideas?"
She asked with a smile.
Yuan An shrugged, "No ideas."
"Brother Yuan, don't be ungrateful for what you have. You should be thankful to marry a good girl like Shuyun. Don't you see that my brother is still alone?"
Xu Rui glared at her, "You are getting bolder. You even dare to laugh at your brother?"
"Brother, I'm just telling the truth. How can you say that you're mocking me? I'm so wronged!"
After saying that, he looked at Feng Shaoqing again, "Now only you and Brother Feng haven't found a marriage yet."
Feng Shaoqing, who was implicated innocently, shook his head with a smile, "I think it's because Sister Mu Hua got married herself that she can't bear to see others not getting married, and started to worry about the marriages of those around her. She's only in her teens, but she's worrying about people in their teens!"
Xu Mu Hua didn't feel embarrassed at all, "Isn't this because you are not ambitious? If you all find a sister-in-law for me, I won't have to worry about this! But it doesn't matter, now I'm also in the East Palace, I will interact more with the nobles in the palace, get to know them better, and see which family has a suitable girl, and then I will help you connect!"
Feng Shaoqing immediately thanked him and said, "No need!"
Xu Muhua was about to doubt whether he was a marriage-phobic person.
Xu Rui was calm.
He felt that even if his sister wanted to introduce someone, she probably wouldn't have the chance!
He would have to go back to the border soon! No matter
how fast the marriage was, it would be impossible to settle it and do it in such a short time.
How could he know that Xu Muhua had already planned half of it! Now he, the person involved, was the only one who didn't know.
Shaoqing Feng was afraid that she would continue to dwell on this topic, so he hurriedly said, "Since you are out of the palace now, let's talk about business."
Xu Rui frowned: "What business to talk about? What business can you talk about?"
After asking this question, Shaoqing Feng remembered that he, as the eldest brother, probably didn't know what his sister did!
He didn't answer, but just looked at Xu Muhua and gave her a look that told her to solve it herself.
Xu Muhua said lightly, "It's nothing, didn't I do some business with Brother Feng? I am one of the bosses after all, and I have to communicate occasionally. It was okay before, but now that I have entered the East Palace, I am afraid it will not be convenient in the future."
Xu Rui did not doubt it and just thought they were still talking about the mahjong parlor.
Mahjong has been popular in Beijing for quite some time, but until now, the monthly net profit is still quite considerable! He also took a lot of credit!
But then, when he listened to their conversation, the more he listened, the more he felt
something was wrong! What mahjong, it's not like that at all!
When did Mu Hua and Shao Qing set up a kiln to burn glass?
The glass products he saw when he returned to Beijing were actually made by his own sister?
Xu Rui could not forget what he saw in a store last time. Several people were scrambling to buy a set of glass tea sets like crazy, and they almost got into a fight!
