Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Chapter 207 Hot



Chapter 207 Hot

In a short while, the threshold of Xu Yun's house was trampled down.

There are also people who propose marriage.

Xu Yun was so annoyed that he simply put up a sign at the gate: "Xu Yun is already engaged."

The gatekeeper Chen Ku was responsible for reading what was written on the sign to everyone who asked.

Out of ten matchmakers, eight gave up because of the difficulty.

There are two others... They are not professional matchmakers, but they do the work of matchmakers.

There are even some small families among them.

Xu Yun is fine, but Xie Wanqing is really almost numb.

In the past few days, she has met more matchmakers than in the previous half of her life combined.

She was familiar with the routine - she would praise Xu Yun first when she entered the door, and when she had praised him enough, she would then vaguely mention that there was a good young man of similar age in a certain family.

Later, Xie Wanqing had some experience, so when others praised Xu Yun for this move, she would smile and say, "Ah Yun is good in every way except that she is stubborn. She got engaged too early. If she could have waited until now, I don't know how good a marriage she could have arranged."

Looking at Xie Wanqing's smiling face and listening to her words full of regret, most people knew better and stopped talking.

But there are also those who are not tactful.

This time, a Mrs. Lu came.

As for this Mrs. Lu, her younger sister married into the Xie family.

Although it's just a branch of the Xie family, but...if you think about it deeply, they are still related.

At first, Xie Wanqing thought that this was a visit to make friends.

After all, these days, there are quite a few people who want to claim to be relatives of their family, and some of them are really close enough.

Therefore, Xie Wanqing also met him.

Mrs. Lu's husband now holds an official position in the Ministry of Rites. Although the rank is not high, it is a real job.

Therefore, Mrs. Lu was still very stylish and always brought two maids with her when she went out.

Behind Xie Wanqing, there was only one Hongyu. And both of them were not dressed luxuriously, but rather plainly.

Madam Lu looked at you calmly and then smiled: "I heard that you have suffered a lot since you got married. It must be more comfortable when you are at your parents' home, right? The Xie family is a big family. I heard that even if the family members are from a small branch, they are provided with food, clothing and other expenses by the family."

Xie Wanqing couldn't figure out where this came from, so she smiled and said softly, "It's not that exaggerated. It's just that the children's education, pens, ink, paper and inkstone are all provided by the clan. Moreover, during festivals, the clan does distribute rice, flour, meat, cloth and other things."

This is not false.

Even though the cloth could only make a set of clothes for the child and the meat was only enough for the whole family to have one meal, it was still a good fortune.

Moreover, every child can go to the tribal school.

This is true even for women.

Xie Wanqing actually had no resentment towards the Xie family.

Mrs. Lu listened with envy in her eyes: Such a style is indeed only available to the top big families. With so many people in the family, how much does it cost every year just for these!

So, she cleared her throat and said seriously, "We are all women, and we know the hardships of women the best. For a woman to get married... is no different from being reborn again!"

Xie Wanqing looked at Madam Lu quietly, and probably understood what Madam Lu wanted to say.

But she had a gentle personality, so even though she looked at people like that, Mrs. Lu couldn't sense her displeasure.

Madam Lu continued, "No matter how noble a family is, it is better than an ordinary family. How can others compare to their heritage of a hundred years? Now you are finally proud of yourself thanks to Ah Yun, so don't be foolish!"

Xie Wanqing frowned slightly, but couldn't help herself: "What does Madam Lu want to say?"

In fact, it wasn't that she couldn't bear it, but mainly because she felt Hongyu couldn't bear it anymore. For the sake of Hongyu's reputation and image, she decided not to continue to endure it.

Mrs. Lu was stunned.

After all, she felt that the time was not right.

But Xie Wanqing asked this...

Madam Lu lowered her voice and asked, "Are you and Xu Sanlang really divorced?"

Speaking of Xu Sanlang, Xie Wanqing's face turned cold this time, and she was clearly unhappy: "What on earth does Madam want to say!"

Hongyu's hands were clenched tightly, and she was thinking about how to chase the person away in the most embarrassing way - or should she use a broom?

Madam Lu also realized something and waved her hands repeatedly: "I am not a lobbyist for Xu Sanlang! The Xu family is completely under the Southern Court. I dare not associate with them!"

It is not really true to say that there is no interaction between the northern and southern families.

After all, there are countless in-laws between aristocratic families.

How can this be cut off just like that?

As long as it is not brought to light and communicated privately, no one will investigate further.

But if it is put on the surface——

Mrs. Lu was obviously afraid that Xie Wanqing would misunderstand her, so after taking a sip of water, she quickly said everything in one breath: "Look, Ah Yun is also engaged. She will have to get married in the future. What will you do then?"

"As women, we still need to find someone to rely on. You are still young, are you going to live like this for the rest of your life?"

"I have a brother-in-law, his surname is Li, he is from Zhao County, he has a brother, his wife died early, he didn't have any children, he was sentimental, and he delayed it until now-"

Mrs. Lu became more and more anxious as she spoke.

After all, Xie Wanqing's expression became more and more ugly.

Madam Lu made up her mind, moved her upper body closer to Xie Wanqing, and lowered her voice and said, "With your conditions, we can find someone who is in her twenties and unmarried. It's not impossible to find someone younger. But the younger ones, firstly, don't know how to care for others, and secondly, you don't know why they were picked out. It's better to find someone who knows how to care for others and knows you well."

"I have seen my brother-in-law's brother. He is handsome and gentle. He is a perfect match for you!"

Hongyu finally recovered from her shock and immediately took a step forward, biting her back teeth and forcing a smile: "Mrs. Lu, my mother is feeling a little unwell and wants to rest for a while."

That's pretty straightforward.

Anyone can understand that this means seeing someone off.

Mrs. Lu did not pretend not to understand. She smiled and said she was leaving. But when she was about to leave, she couldn't help but turned back and said, "Please think about this..."

Hongyu almost rushed forward to "see the guest off".

He was stopped by Xie Wanqing.

The reputation of Hongyu is still needed.

Xie Wanqing sat in the chair, feeling a little dazed: "What is going on——"

Hongyu gnashed her teeth and said, "Since they can't target Ah Yun, they are targeting you!"

If he couldn't marry Xu Yun, he could marry Xu Yun's mother. Wouldn't that be the same as winning over Xu Yun?

Hongyu was almost mad.

She ran out immediately, angrily saying, "How shameless! No, I can't bear it anymore!"

However, Mrs. Lu walked very fast.

There was no chance for Hongyu to take revenge.

He probably knew that he would be easily beaten for what he said.

Hongyu was so angry that she could only turn around and go into Xu Yun's room to complain to him.

Xu Yun really didn't know about this.

She is reading in the library.

Since there was no need to take exams, Xu Yun put down all the books of poetry and songs.

Concentrate on learning the important techniques for the people.

She felt that this book was very important.

Otherwise, Your Majesties would not have specifically brought it up for examination.

When Hongyu came in, she left the library. But as soon as she left, she saw Hongyu looking furious.

Xu Yun asked her, "Why are you angry? Who provoked you?"
