Chapter 691 693. Matchmaking
Gu Wenheng sighed lightly. This kind of thing really was not something he could change on his own, and he didn't think he had that much power.
“When I first came out, I also discussed it with a few companies.
This time they will be in office with us for so many years, if there is a suitable one, you can help them find one."
Jin Qianqian glanced at him and said, "Why didn't you inform me beforehand about this kind of thing?"
Gu Wenheng touched his nose and said weakly, "Can I say that I really forgot about this? If you hadn't mentioned it today, I really wouldn't have remembered it."
Jin Qianqian, "What do you think this is? If they don't live well, we will be blamed.
What if they settle down here for their wives? How can we explain it to them when we return?"
Just thinking about it gave me a headache, and I couldn't help but complain, "I should have explained it to them clearly at the time. If I really made the decision for them, wouldn't they have to look for me if there were any problems in the future?"
"They don't dare to do that," Gu Wenheng said quickly, "Even if they were in their hometown, they might not be able to marry someone they like. Isn't life full of bumps and bruises?
This kind of blind marriage is normal here."
Gu Wenheng's next sentence could be said to be a wake-up call for Jin Qianqian to follow him out and get married. Maybe those guys were secretly happy about it.
The women he was dealing with were all children of officials, which was many times better than marrying the daughter of a small landlord in his hometown.
Jin Qianqian just couldn't accept it suddenly, but slowly she figured it out.
"Then I won't ask. If someone asks, I'll send someone to find out."
Since it has already happened, Jin Qianqian doesn't want to create a few resentful couples. At worst, she can send someone to find out about the other party's character.
Seeing that she had figured it out, Gu Wenheng smiled ingratiatingly, "Thank you for your hard work, madam."
Jin Qianqian imitated his previous behavior, patted his shoulder and said, "Let's be practical."
Gu Wenheng followed suit and stood behind her. "When the brothers came out, they all told us that we only need to help them arrange the betrothal gifts. They will reimburse us for the money we spend when the time comes."
Jin Qianqian was not worried about her nephews. "What did Gu Yi and the others say?"
They are all clansmen, and their living conditions are not as good as the Gu family. This really cannot be taken lightly or taken lightly.
Before leaving, Gu Wenheng naturally had to resolve this problem. "I have discussed it with their parents. They all have money on them. If it really works out, we can ask them directly for it. Whether it's a lot or a little, we'll do it according to their ability."
Jin Qianqian let out a long sigh, "They are all sensible people.
But I see that Gu Yi is the oldest among them. Doesn’t he want to take the examination to become a scholar in three years?
Should we postpone this marriage?"
If you pass the exam and become a scholar, you will have a much wider range of choices.
Gu Wenheng, "If there is a suitable one, please help him choose one. This is what the old patriarch specifically instructed.
He is old enough to get married, and the old patriarch doesn't want him to wait any longer."
In the last college entrance examination, Gu Sanbu thought that Gu Yi had passed the exam to become a scholar, but who knew that he fell short by a little bit.
This time, the reason why Gu Yi was asked to come out was because he wanted him to be with Gu Wenheng so that he could give him some guidance when he was free.
But Gu Yi's marriage really can't be delayed any longer. He is afraid that one day his health will not be good enough and he will have to delay Gu Yi again.
Jin Qianqian could understand the old patriarch's concerns, "He is the oldest among the children and is of the same generation as us, so we can only start with him."
"Madam, what you said makes sense. Someone asked me before, and I also vaguely revealed that Gu Yi would have no problem passing the exam to become a scholar, so someone should ask you this time."
Jin Qianqian turned around and glanced at him, "You must have accidentally forgotten this again?"
Gu Wenheng, "...I wanted to tell you about it before, but I didn't expect you to be poisoned that day. I was actually shocked."
Speaking of this, he still has lingering fears. "Remember to try not to eat those fungi when you go to the banquet."
"How can it be so coincidental every time? I believe that after the last incident, each government will definitely have stricter control over the kitchens."
Not to mention others, Jin Qianqian would have her subordinates verify the fungi entering the house again and again before allowing them into the kitchen.
In Yi Province, it is impossible not to come into contact with fungi, so you just have to be careful not to let anyone take advantage of you.
However, after the last incident, Gu Wenheng and Jin Qianqian both had some psychological trauma, and there have been no fungi on the dinner table for a long time.
Jin Qianqian suddenly remembered that they had been discussing this for so long but had not yet asked the person involved. "Should we ask Gu Yi to come over and ask him? See if he has any requests?"
Gu Wenheng smiled and said, "The old patriarch said that as long as the person is virtuous and in good health, there are not many other requirements."
Jin Qianqian rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's not like the old patriarch is getting married. It's Gu Yi who wants to spend his whole life with her, so naturally he has his own preferences.
If you haven't asked, it's better to ask. At least tell me the conditions so that I can have a general idea.
We should help him find out everything before he is dissatisfied."
This is the brother-in-law from the next room. As his cousin, Jin Qianqian naturally can't ask him directly. If it were any other boy, she could just call him over and ask.
Besides, Jin Qianqian would never do such a nonsensical thing as getting married without any clear reason.
Gu Wenheng, "Okay! I'll go ask later."
Jin Qianqian, "Don't wait any longer. It's still early. Go to the front yard and take a look. They should not have rested yet.
The sooner I understand, the better I will feel.”
"You are such a hothead. There is no rush. Let's take our time."
"I'm afraid you'll turn around and forget about this again." Jin Qianqian pushed him out. If it weren't for the conversation today, Gu Wenheng might not have remembered this.
&
The ten boys in the front yard thought that Gu Wenheng called them together for something important.
Unexpectedly, a direct question would confuse them all.
"What kind of wife are you planning to find?
Now write down the conditions on paper, and you can’t go back on your word once you’ve made them.”
The young man of the Gu family: "..."
Seeing that they hadn't reacted yet, Gu Wenheng asked again.
"Uncle, I'm still young." Gu Leshun held his head high. At the age of 11, he was a little short, and only reached Gu Wenheng's armpit.
Gu Wenheng lowered his head and glanced at him, "Although she is a little young, marriage should be arranged from childhood.
It just so happens that your brothers are here too, so please list your requirements and if there is a suitable one, you can ask your seventh aunt to help you decide first."
Gu Leshun, "...Isn't that an arranged marriage?"
Gu Wenheng looked at him and said, "You are not a doll, you have nothing to do with a doll.
You can arrange the engagement first and then get married a few years later. It’s the same.”
