Chapter 394 Orb as Matchmaker
"There are quite a few beauties here today. I wonder if Brother Jiang Cheng is interested in them?"
The three brothers and sisters stood upstairs with Jiang Cheng, looking down from a high position at the ladies across the lotus pond.
Bao Zhu asked Jiang Cheng straightforwardly and seriously.
The protagonist Jiang Cheng is embarrassed to come.
"Brother Jiang Cheng didn't say anything. It seems he's just trying to pick a trick."
Baozhu covered her mouth and smiled.
She looked at him jokingly, with slightly red cheeks.
Mingzhu has already made a marriage arrangement with Ye Yunzhou, and Jiang Dongsheng has already chosen a candidate for the crown princess.
Now when it's time for him to choose a wife, he has three younger brothers and sisters to accompany him.
"There are so many ladies, do you know Brother Jiang Cheng?"
Bao Zhu asked with a smile.
Mingzhu covered her mouth and snickered, which really stumped Jiang Cheng.
Jiang Cheng said in embarrassment: "Indeed, I don't even know Baozhu. Do you have any opinions?"
Mingzhu and Jiang Dongsheng were both stunned. He was the one marrying a wife, not Bao Zhu, but he actually asked Bao Zhu.
"Brother Jiang Cheng, do you really want to hear my opinion?"
Bao Zhu raised her little head and asked.
Jiang Cheng nodded. For him, marrying a wife was just to complete the task and satisfy Granny Hao's wish.
"Just tell me the pearl."
He really wanted to hear Baozhu's opinion.
Since you can't choose the one you like, it's better to choose the right one.
Originally, marriage was a major matter decided by his parents, and he had fantasized about his future wife.
"What do you think of the sister in green?"
Bao Zhu pointed to the dignified and elegant girl sitting by the lotus pond and asked.
Mingzhu and the others looked in the direction she pointed. The girl in green had a delicate appearance, not particularly beautiful, but not ugly either.
But his demeanor is somewhat graceful and graceful.
"she is?"
Jiang Cheng looked at the woman, frowned consciously and asked.
He didn't know this woman, but... the person Baozhu specifically pointed to must have something extraordinary about her.
"This is the eldest daughter of the Gu family. Gu Shilang is in the Hanlin Academy and is compiling classics for her father. The eldest daughter of the Gu family is also good at poetry and calligraphy. After marriage, she can make you, brother Jiang Cheng, live a prosperous life."
Red sleeves add fragrance?
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but blush.
Baozhu is becoming more and more bold when speaking.
He doesn't have any of the restraints of a younger daughter's family. Instead, he is more like a boudoir girl who was brought here by her parents to see her future husband.
"However, this Miss Gu is also a poor person. Her biological mother died early, and Mr. Gu married a step-in-law. This step-in-law is not very good to Mr. Gu's sister and brother. But he has such a graceful and generous temperament, thanks to Mr. Gu
The teachings of men.”
"If I remember correctly, Miss Gu's brother will also take the scientific examination this year."
Bao Zhu patiently analyzed with Jiang Cheng: "Don't look at Miss Gu who looks gentle and demure, but she is actually a person with good ideas. It is said that she has taken care of the Gu family in an orderly manner since she was the housekeeper at a young age."
"However, there is one thing that may not meet Granny Hao's criteria for choosing a daughter-in-law, and that is that the Gu family is not the legitimate daughter of an aristocratic family. Mr. Gu has achieved his current official position step by step. However... he is upright and offended.
He killed many ministers in the court."
This was the reminder given to him by Baozhu.
Once he chooses a girl from the Gu family, it is very likely that he will not get help from his in-laws.
After all, Mr. Gu is famous for his uprightness in the court.
"Did you see that one? The woman in pink clothes."
Baozhu pointed at another woman who was covering her mouth and smiling sweetly in the pavilion.
The clothes she wears are much more gorgeous than Miss Gu's.
The beaded hairpin worn on her head would cost an ordinary person half a year.
"That's the concubine of the Wu family. The Wu family is considered a moderately aristocratic family in Shangjing, and Mr. Wu is in the household department. In addition, the Wu family is also considered a concubine. Although the Wu family is a concubine, at first glance
She is pampered, but in terms of appearance, she is more delicate than Miss Gu."
"Miss Wu shouldn't need me to tell you, but Granny Hao should also mention it to you, right?"
Jiang Cheng nodded.
Grandma Hao was particularly concerned about his marriage. During this period, she spent a lot of time inquiring about ladies from various families about his marriage.
Bao Zhu would never tell him this for no reason. Both girls have their own merits.
But Baozhu's words are more supportive of the legitimate daughter of the Gu family, whose mother's family is weak.
"Does Baozhu think that the direct daughter of the Gu family is better?"
Jiang Cheng asked with a smile.
Baozhu pursed his lips and stared at him with big eyes: "You are the one to get a wife, not me. This is just my suggestion. If you like it, you can ask my father to grant you a marriage, and you won't be allowed to marry me."
The wedding looked shabby.”
Jiang Cheng glanced at Miss Wu and Miss Gu in the crowd.
I don’t know what happened by the lotus pond. Miss Wu’s family seemed to have had a little quarrel with another Miss Liu’s family, but they were quickly pulled away.
On the contrary, Miss Gu's family stood far away from the beginning to the end and did not get involved in the quarrels between the ladies.
When speaking, he always wore a decent smile, neither far nor near.
Behave gracefully and gracefully.
"Although getting married is a woman's second reincarnation, if a man marries the wrong wife, it will harm three generations. This is related to your career and the future of your lineage. Brother Jiang Cheng not only wants to like him, but also if he chooses
If you love the other person, you should treat the other person's girl well and don't let the other person's heart be cold."
"If you can't help each other, then you have to give the other party the dignity of a real wife, and treat each other as guests, which is better than sharing the same bed with each other and being divorced."
Baozhu truly treats Jiang Cheng as a big brother.
That’s why I’m willing to say so much.
After all, as long as Jiang Cheng doesn't go astray, his future is bright.
Jiang Cheng obviously listened to Baozhu's words.
"Miss Gu's temperament is stable and she is well-read in poetry and books. She is indeed the best candidate. Then I ask you, Baozhu, to get a marriage decree for me and my uncle."
The emperor grants marriage, which is a supreme honor.
It was also for the eldest daughter of the Gu family.
Let her hold her head high and chest high in the Gu family.
When she gets married, the Gu family will not be confused about her dowry and will not be demanding about her dowry. At the same time, she will feel more confident when she gets married to her husband's family.
"Decided so quickly?"
Bao Zhu asked with a surprised look on his face.
Jiang Cheng smiled and said: "The people Baozhu likes will naturally not be far behind."
Bao Zhu nodded with a smile: "Okay, in that case. After the banquet is over, I will go and get the imperial edict for you and go to the Gu family in person."
Jiang Cheng was a little surprised. Baozhu looked like this. It was not like he was just optimistic about Miss Gu's family, but he was very optimistic about her.
She could be so considerate that she would go to the Gu family with the imperial edict in person.
For the first time, Jiang Cheng had expectations for his marriage.
Although Baozhu, a young lady, was born in Daxia, most of the women were immature. Even when they walked on the street, they wore bonnets to hide their appearance.
Many couples get married and can't see each other's faces until their wedding night.
This is not a blind marriage.
Jiang Cheng's marriage was finalized, and Bao Zhu felt very beautiful. In fact, she had already spotted Miss Gu at an accidental poetry meeting.
Miss Gu looked weak, but there was a sense of stubbornness and resilience in her poems, so she was naturally willing to help her.
