Chapter 1154 Proposal
Early the next morning, Grandma Yu was ordered to invite a famous matchmaker in the capital to come over. Together with Xia Zihan, they went to the Lu family to propose marriage.
When the people of the Lu family learned that Princess Chu Yu was coming, the whole family was confused for a moment. They didn't know what was going on with Princess Chu Yu's sudden visit in person.
When the whole family rushed out to greet Xia Zihan, they actually saw the famous matchmaker Li in the capital standing next to Xia Zihan.
The Lu family hired many matchmakers to deal with Miss Lu. Matchmaker Li, who was well-spoken and well-known for her ability to protect matchmakers, was naturally one of them.
Matchmaker Li knew Mrs. Lu. After Mrs. Lu led her family to greet Xia Zihan, she said with a smile, "Congratulations to Mrs. Lu, congratulations to Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu, your family is very happy today."
"Happy? I wonder where this happiness comes from?" Mrs. Lu racked her brains and didn't know what happy events were happening in her family.
She has four children. Except for one daughter who cannot get married, the other three are already married. Of course, when she saw Matchmaker Li, she also thought that Matchmaker Li was here to propose marriage. However, looking at Princess Chu Yu, she felt impossible.
Matchmaker Li's face was as bright as a flower, and the look she looked at the girl from the Lu family became a little more flattering, "It's a big happy event, of course it's a big happy event, but let's go in and talk about it."
< br>
"Oh, look at me, I'm such an old fool, I actually let the princess stand outside. Princess, please sit down in the room." With that, he hurriedly led Xia Zihan into the house.
After entering the door and waiting to sit down, the maid served tea. Mrs. Lu blamed herself again, "Princess, you must not blame me. In the past two years, my head has become more and more confused every year. This person is old." If it doesn’t work, it will be useless and nothing can be done well.”
Mrs. Lu kept saying that she was old, but Xia Zihan knew that she was worried about Miss Lu's marriage.
Xia Zihan smiled and said, "I came too abruptly and didn't say hello to Mrs. Lu in advance."
There was no pretense of a princess in her whole body. She was as amiable and approachable as a young daughter-in-law from an ordinary family. Mrs. Lu was flattered, "What's so abrupt about it? It's an honor for my Lu family to have the princess come here."< br>
"It's a happy event. Princess Chu Yu is here to bring you happiness." Matchmaker Li said.
She looked at Miss Lu sitting next to Mrs. Lu with a smile.
In fact, Miss Lu is not ugly, but she is not good-looking either. She is just average. If she had a softer temper and had so many dowries, she would have been married off long ago if she found someone with a lower status than her. , It's a pity that Miss Lu is famous for her fierce temper in this area, and she also learned a lot of kung fu from her brothers. She is unreasonable, and ordinary men would not dare to marry her at all.
Even men from martial arts families dare not marry her because she is too aggressive and unreasonable. No one dares to marry a domestic troublemaker and live at home.
In fact, she really didn't understand why Princess Chu Yu wanted her younger brother to marry such a woman and go home.
No matter why, she has nothing to do with other people's affairs. She only cares about keeping the matchmaker and getting money.
When Matchmaker Li thought of this, she smiled and glanced at Miss Lu a few more times, but hesitated to speak.
When Mrs. Lu saw this, she immediately understood and moved Miss Lu away excitedly, and then asked, "Matchmaker Li, you keep saying you are very happy, where does the displeasure come from?"
"Of course there is a happy event, a big happy event." Matchmaker Li said with a smile, "Today I am accompanying the princess to propose marriage. The princess's biological brother is fifteen years old this year. Although he is younger, his daughter is Junior year, hold on to the golden brick..."
Okay, okay, matchmaker Li told Xia Zijiang's situation. Of course, the matchmaker only picked out the good things and didn't mention the bad ones. Xia Zijiang's character is not very good, but he is not so bad that he bullies good women on the street and robs ordinary women like the gangsters. He is just a little more playful, a little lazy, and a little nice.
What's more, Xia Zijiang also inherited the beauty of Xu and Xia Shiming. She looks like a dog, but just looking at her appearance, she is a talented person, like a tree in the wind.
Matchmaker Li praised Xia Zijiang for his good meal.
Then, he told Mrs. Lu, "The situation of the Xia family is like this. After the eldest young master of the Xia family gets married, he will be separated. From now on, they will live as a couple. Your girl will be the head of the family when she enters the house. Mrs. Xia Er I also said that it is divided After that, you don't have to spend time with her to sleep with her, or wait on her. You can also rest assured that when a girl gets married, she doesn't have to serve her mother-in-law, and she doesn't have to be chastised by her mother-in-law. This is a great thing that no one can even imagine. ”
What are the parents most worried about when their daughter gets married?
She was just afraid that her daughter would be tortured to death by her mother-in-law when she was in her husband's family, and her family could not interfere. Now, matchmaker Li actually said that her daughter would be the head of the family after entering the house, and she would not have to be tortured by her mother-in-law. Such a good thing, How could Mrs. Lu not be tempted?
Mrs. Lu plans to marry her daughter to a village man, but how can a village man compare to Princess Chu Yu’s biological brother?
Although she didn't know why Princess Chu Yu came to ask her brother to marry her daughter, this was a rare opportunity.
God knows, this is the first time someone has come to propose marriage to her daughter.
Mrs. Lu was very excited, but she did not lose her mind. After thinking about it secretly, she said to Xia Zihan, "Thank you very much, Princess, for your kindness. However, this marriage will have to wait until I discuss it with my master." Reply to the princess.”
Mrs. Lu did not agree to Xia Zihan immediately because of her identity. It was enough to show that Mrs. Lu really loved her daughter and did not sell her daughter immediately just because she could please Xia Zihan.
Xia Zihan smiled and said, "This is the right thing to do, and it should be like this."
When a man goes to the woman's house to propose marriage, the woman will find excuses to delay the marriage, and then secretly send someone to inquire about the man's character.
This is what most families would do, so Xia Zihan was not surprised.
Mrs. Lu ordered her three daughters-in-law to accompany the guests, while she went to discuss the matter with Mr. Lu.
As soon as Mrs. Lu came out of the hall, she ordered a mother beside her, "Hurry up and go out and inquire about the eldest young master of the Xia family. If he is a good person, then this marriage can be settled."
"Yes, madam, the old slave will go now."
Mrs. Lu also gave her mother five taels of silver. How could she get so much money by asking about things?
As soon as her mother left, Mrs. Lu hurriedly went to the backyard to find Mr. Lu.
Xia Zihan didn't know how Mrs. Lu and Master Lu discussed it. However, after she waited at Lu's house for about half an hour, Mrs. Lu gave her a letter saying that she agreed to the marriage.
However, Mrs. Lu still looked uncomfortable and said, "This marriage is also the first marriage of our family's Zhu'er, but I have one request."
