Chapter 1737 Skills at the Dinner Table

Before Xu Yujin got married, one Zhu San and Zhu Qi were studying in the state school, and the other was running around outside. It was impossible to deal with the backyard of Pushou City.

If you don't interact with them, you won't be able to enter the circle of women, and you won't be able to get involved in things like in-laws.

What's more, although Zhu San is of marriageable age, he is an "errand runner (outsiders do not know the person behind some of his events)" and cannot catch the attention of those ladies.

As for Zhu Qi, he has not reached the age of weakness and is not yet of marriageable age.

Therefore, no one noticed the two brothers at all until Zhu San married Xu Yujin. She successfully broke into the social circle of Pushou City despite her status as the daughter of the Xu family in Luanzhou.

As for Zhu San, he has also changed from an "errand runner" to a scholar who is studying with Mr. Xu and is preparing to take the imperial examination next year. Although he has no results yet, he can get into it just by studying with Mr. Xu.

The major families in Pushou City were eyeing him, not to mention that he and Zhu Qi had close contacts with Yan Hean, Xu Jingqi, Jiang Jingtong and others, so just because of these connections, everyone would look high on them.

What can we talk about in a women’s circle?

Apart from rouge and gouache, there is only gossip among each family. If any family has a marriageable partner, they will not forget to ask around and exchange information.

Xu Yujin didn't notice this at first, but recently many people asked her about Zhu Qi, and gradually she became interested: Yes, there seems to be someone in our family who is of marriageable age.

After returning home, Xu Yujin told Zhu San: "Someone is asking me about Seventh Brother, saying that there is a girl in their family who is waiting to be married. She is gentle and virtuous, and has an IKEA family."

Zhu San laughed as soon as he heard this and said: "Our family rules are that everyone's marriage must be witnessed by my mother. If others inquire, you can openly reveal it, but if you want to marry, you have to go through my mother's test."

"Of course." Xu Yujin said with a smile, "Everyone who wants to see each other has to pass the old lady's test? But before preparing to see each other, everyone needs to get to know each other to see if they have this intention. If they have this intention,

That's the next step. As a sister-in-law, I can't make the decision over my mother's affairs regarding my seventh brother, but I still have to ask what I need to know. If there is a suitable candidate but I miss him, it would be a pity.

"

When Xu Yujin mentioned this, she actually wanted to ask Zhu San what standards his family looked for when marrying a wife. As long as there were such standards, she could help take a look at them when they had tea with the ladies.

"Don't worry about the seventh brother's matter. You also know the seventh brother's situation. Mom should stay for two more years until he matures." If possible, Zhu San also hopes that Zhu Qi will talk about it after they have further progress in their family.

When it came to marriage, the choices were wider at that time, and the Zhu family had more autonomy.

What's more, Zhu Qi's situation is quite special. Whether Zhu Qi wants to get married or not remains to be said.

Zhu San just nodded a little, but was not sure, and then talked about another thing, "If you want to be a matchmaker, you might as well consider the third sister and the fourth sister first."

"Third sister, fourth sister?" Xu Yujin was stunned for a moment. She had an impression of the girl raised in the Zhu family. Although she didn't have much contact with her, judging from the casual contact, she was a very smart girl of two years.

It's just that Lin Sanmei and Lin Simei's surname is "surname" and not Zhu. It's not her turn as a daughter-in-law who married into the Zhu family to make the decision for them, right?

Zhu San nodded: "Both of them, like the eighth sister, were taught by my mother step by step. Although they are not as proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, they are also not as good as a rich lady like you, who is full of poetry and calligraphy, but she

They are both proficient in literature and writing, good at business management, and both are good stewards."

Zhu Sandao did not hide anything and told the situation of Lin Sanmei and Lin Simei.

Lin Sanmei is more active and has a bit of a strong temper, but she has not fallen behind in studying or settling accounts, and she is definitely no worse than other girls.

Lin Simei is smarter, but she doesn't show it to the outside, but she is actually the one who makes the final decision between the two of them. She plans carefully and likes reading and playing chess.

"I haven't thought about it coming from a wealthy family, but if it comes from a small wealthy family with a small fortune, or a scholar from a poor family, I think the two of them can make a good match."

"As you know, our family's dyeing workshop was run by them and Eight Sisters. My mother only helps as a consultant, and all other matters are handled by the three of them themselves."

"There is also the elementary school in the village, which is also operated by the three of them."



After hearing Zhu San's words, Xu Yujin also made some calculations in her mind. Although Lin Sanmei and Lin Simei did not have their natal family, they grew up in Zhu's family, and the Zhu family was equivalent to their natal family.

When they get married in the future, the family they want to leave will also be the Zhu family.

In other words, anyone who marries them in the future will actually marry the Zhu family.

Just like what Zhu San said, they are not worthy of a wealthy family because of their low background. But a wealthy family with a small income, or a scholar from a poor family with lofty ambitions can all consider it.

even……

Xu Yujin smiled and said to Zhu San: "Actually, you can set your sights higher."

"Oh? Do you have an idea?"

Xu Yujin nodded: "Aspiring scholars, limited by their family background, unless they are as outstanding as you, it is very difficult to marry a high-ranking daughter, but if you just focus on family members, you can have some success

I hope that as an individual, I actually do have a few candidates..."

She had only been married to Zhu San for half a year, and they were still looking at each other. She knew better than he did how many marriageable men there were in Pushou City and how many scholars from poor families there were in Pushou Prefecture School.

The family with a low birthrate was not Xu Yujin's target at all. She was not sure about this and needed to inquire again.

But in addition to these two, Xu Yujin also has another target, and that is the son of an aristocratic family whose "family situation is in decline".

"Children of aristocratic families?" Zhu San frowned, "Not quite appropriate, right? It's not that I have low self-esteem. Generally speaking, children of aristocratic families are more proud. Even if their family is in decline, they won't marry a village girl, right?"

It's not that Zhu San was self-deprecating. In fact, people at that time paid attention to a "well-matched" person when getting married. Of the two things he mentioned, he could still barely mention them and get the other party to nod by relying on "farming, studying and inheriting the family" and having a scholar in the family.

Prince...

No matter how miserable it is, you won’t marry a village girl, right?

Xu Yujin laughed softly: "What kind of serious family do you think I'm talking about? Our ancestors were once there, but their descendants have failed to live up to their expectations, and they have fallen into decline a long time ago. By this generation, they are no different from the small rich, or even

Even colder."

No need for Xu Yujin to explain, Zhu San understood why such a family may be more "poor", because the aristocratic family must pay attention to the style of the aristocratic family, even if they have no money, they will try their best to show that "I am rich"

Look.

So it looks good from the outside, but no one knows what it's like on the inside.

Xu Yujin said: "I don't have to let the two sisters fight, and I have to go through the trouble of marrying into a family that is destined to suffer hardships. The two sisters are smart, must have a long-term vision, and know what they want. We

We just provide them with a choice and tell them what step we can take for them, but whether it can be done and what kind of life they will have after marriage depends entirely on themselves..."

It is difficult to marry into a wealthy family, especially a family that has declined and has long since lost its aristocratic style. The wealth is beautiful but the wealth is poor. If you marry into a family, you may be in a lot of trouble.

What such families most want to marry is the kind of girl who can support their family and restore their family to its past glory. However, the real daughter of aristocratic families will not like them at all. They will either be forced to marry a good-looking girl for the sake of face.

Yes, either the picture is realistic, but the face is not very good-looking, but you will get benefits.
