There is Room For the Poor Daughter

Daohua has always been very resistant to getting married.

Even though she has lived in ancient times for twelve years and has long been accustomed to and familiar with the rules of this era, some concepts are still unacceptable.

In ancient marriages, it was important to pay attention to the words of a matchmaker, and the most important thing was the exchange of family and family interests.

When many people get married, they may not even meet each other.

Daohua shuddered at the thought of living with a complete stranger for most of her life.

In these ancient times, people who dote on their children a little bit, at most, when talking about kissing, let both men and women meet or something, what she wants to pursue is the harmony of the three views and the likeness of temperament, it is simply a daydream.

Moreover, she has no dedication. For the so-called husband, discipline concubines, educate concubines, such things are impossible for her.

Not to mention, there is a relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that cannot be avoided.

Can she live a good married life like this?

Fifteen-year-old cousin Zi Xuan has already started talking about kissing. She is 12 this year. Does that mean that she will face such a situation in three years?

In modern times, marriage is independent, people can choose to marry later, choose the object of marriage, or choose to live alone, but in ancient times, if she dared to say that she didn't want to marry, even the old lady Yan who doted on her the most would jump out and strongly oppose it.

Daohua became irritable. She was a little dazed and a little uneasy about her future life. She didn't want to compromise, but she didn't know where to go.

On the side, Mrs. Li was still chattering. Suddenly, her eyes swept away, and she found that her daughter was distracted, and she felt helpless: "Are you listening to Wei Niang?"

Daohua turned her head and nodded dazedly.

Seeing this, Mrs. Li had a headache. She found that every time she mentioned marriage, her daughter seemed to be out of the state, not like other little girls, either shyly avoiding the problem, or Showing her longing for the future, her daughter is a little afraid to avoid it.

Hey, my daughter is still young, let's talk about it later.

Daohua asked at this time, "Mother, is cousin Zixuan getting married next year?"

Mrs. Li smiled: "Not so fast, your second uncle and second aunt are people who love children. It is estimated that it will take a long time. After the family is settled, there will be six ceremonies, at least one or two. You can go out after a year."

Daohua's expression was slightly relaxed: "You must let the second uncle and the second aunt see each other well, and don't choose the wrong person."

When the ancients got married, for a woman, it was really the second reincarnation. If the husband is good, the life will be smooth and beautiful.

Although it is possible to reconcile in this era, the procedures are very cumbersome, and even if the reconciliation is successful in the end, the woman will have a bad reputation, not only will it not be easy to remarry, but it will also affect the family.

Seeing her daughter's worried look, Mrs. Li laughed a little: "Your second uncle is so shrewd, why do you need to worry about this girl?"

Daohua sighed, the second uncle is shrewd, but how can you say things like this?

After being silent for a while, Daohua said again: "I also invited two cousins ​​to come to play at home before, but neither the eldest aunt nor the second aunt agreed. This time I agreed to let the two cousins ​​live in our house for a while, because of my cousin Zixuan. We're getting married, right?"

Mrs. Li nodded: "Your eldest uncle and second uncle are afraid of causing trouble to your mother. This time, I also want your cousin Zixuan to relax before going out. After all, after marriage, you will not be so free. "

Daohua pondered for a while: "Do you want me to bring my two cousins ​​to the party, do you want the ladies from each family to see each other?"

Mrs. Li shook her head: "Your second uncle and the others still have self-knowledge, they know that the official family looks down on businessmen and attends various parties, and they just want your two cousins ​​to see more of the world, and they won't be able to meet the official family's wife in the future. Stage fright and jokes."

Daohua nodded: "I see. However, I still won't go to the Zhu family. Zhu Xiuyun and I really have nothing to say. Anyway, it will be the end of the year, and there will be many parties. The two cousins, let's go out."

Mrs. Li didn't say much. For the Zhu family now, they only need to have a decent face, and there is really no need to grieve their daughter.

Since getting Mrs. Li's instructions, Daohua has gone to each family's party at the end of the year almost every time, taking two cousins ​​to shuttle between the young ladies.

No matter what you think in private, everyone is happy on the surface anyway.

Li Zixuan and Li Zixin can see it even if they occasionally encounter a few sour words. They know in their hearts that it is very difficult for them to really get along with these official and noble ladies.

Daohua did not interfere much in the communication of the Li sisters. After introducing people to them, they often let them move freely.

Whether it's being looked down upon or ridiculed by others, it's not a bad thing to have experienced a lot of these.

Only with a strong heart can you calmly deal with everything that happens in life.

Zhou Jingwan saw Daohua sitting alone in the pavilion drinking tea, and walked in with a smile, looking at the Li sisters who were joking with other ladies in the garden, and said with a smile, "You are cruel, and you are not afraid of your two cousins ​​being bullied. ."

Daohua smiled lightly: "Your family holds a banquet, and they are all from aristocratic families. These people value a reputation most, and they want to be strict in the upbringing of their children."

Saying that, he looked at the girls in the garden.

"Even if those girls have any thoughts in their hearts, they won't show it on their faces. Knowing that the two cousins ​​are my relatives, they won't be too embarrassed."

Zhou Jingwan suddenly laughed: "You think it through, too, the noble family in Xingzhou City has to sell your father a bit of face no matter what."

Everyone knows that Mr. Yan will go to Beijing to report at the beginning of next year. Who would not give face to the Yan family at this time?

"By the way, my brother wrote back and said that the academy was on holiday on the 17th day of the twelfth lunar month this year, and also said that the Laba porridge you sent was delicious, but the quantity was a little smaller, which made Brother Su call you eccentric."

Daohua was puzzled: "What am I partial to?"

Zhou Jingwan: "Of course you are partial to the little prince. My brother and the others have a bowl of Laba porridge, and the little prince has a big cup, so they can't stand it."

Daohua was speechless: "Why don't you just eat a little, you're too old, and you're still fighting for things." She didn't take it to heart at all.

Zhou Jingwan also felt the same way: "That's right, it's okay for our daughter's family to fight for food and clothing. If a man is like this, he will be a little petty."

Daohua agreed with a face: "Isn't it, Big Brother Su too, I always like to compare with Xiao Yeyang, my relationship with Xiao Yeyang is better than others, give him something more, what's wrong? Who else can No one is far away from each other!"

Zhou Jingwan felt that this was too right, she also gave things to her brother, and every time she would give a little to others, but it was more for Yan Sange than others.

There is no other reason. Brother Yan San treats her better than others. Isn't that what it should be?
