[Chapter 2125 Tie Kui Fanwai (49)]
Ning Zhan spent two years observing the teenagers around him, and it seemed that Peng Kangtai, the second son of Gong Changhou, was the most suitable for Ruyi.
“Fourth prince, what do you think of Peng Kangtai?”
Qiyou said with a smile: “The ability is not particularly outstanding, but people are motivated and act in a measured manner. It’s just that your sister is the eldest daughter of the family. If you give it to him, it will be considered a low marriage.”
Although Ruyi has studied with Mammy Dai for three years, Ruyi has grown a lot more than before, but human nature cannot be changed.
Ning Zhan said: “My sister’s temperament can only marry into a family with a simple population. If the population is too complex, she can’t handle it. Gong Changhou did not take a concubine, and the family consists of six people, and Gong Changhou The lady is also easy-going.” Not only Peng Ya, but also many generals in the Ming Dynasty did not take concubines.
Seeing how thoughtful Ning Zhan was, Qiyou said, “You write a letter to your uncle and ask him to decide, don’t come forward.” As for Xiao Shi’s urination, he definitely disliked Peng Kangshun.
Ning Zhan nodded and said, “I know.” Ruyi’s temperament is too soft and scheming, otherwise he wouldn’t have bothered so much. Like Ruhui, he is not afraid anymore. With Ruhui’s temperament, no matter who you marry, you can live well.
Ning Hai has been paying attention to the outstanding young generals in the army all these years, but he fell in love with a young man in the middle. However, when he learned that there was an old mother who had been a widow for 14 years and six siblings, he gave up the idea. The widow’s son is difficult to marry, let alone with so many brothers and sisters, and the wishful temper can’t handle it.
At this time, Ning Hai received a letter from Ning Zhan. Although Peng Kangshun’s conditions are not the best, it has to be said that it is the most suitable for Ruyi.
Ning Hai didn’t even think about using his daughter to marry, and after thinking about it, he wrote to the Xiao family and asked her to give the Peng family a message. If the Peng family is interested, they will invite a matchmaker to come to propose marriage. If they are unintentional, their daughters will not worry about marrying.
After Xiao Shi inquired about Peng Kangshun’s situation, he was a hundred dissatisfied with him. But she didn’t have the courage to resist Ning Hai, so she told Ning Zhan about it: “The second master of the Peng family is average in appearance and ability, and he is the second son. In the future, the family will not be divided into any property. Zhan’er, you write Write it to your father, and let him put this thought away.” Xiao Shi is a girl from a scholar family, and hopes to find a good-looking and talented husband for Ruyi. For Peng Kangshun, he naturally disliked him.
Ning Zhan said, “Mother, it’s useless for me to persuade Dad to decide what to do. And I believe that since Dad has a crush on the second master of the Peng family, he must have something special about him.” Fortunately, I heard what the Fourth Prince said. , I didn’t tell Xiao Shi first about this. Otherwise, this marriage will definitely fail.
No matter how reluctant Xiao Shi was, he would not dare to disobey Ning Hai’s intentions.
When Mrs. Peng got the middleman’s word, she did not ask the official media to come to propose a marriage, but sent someone to inquire about what happened to the Ning family recently.
At this time, Ruyi also knew that Ning Hai had fallen in love with Peng Kangshun, the second son of Gong Changhou. You can hear what Xiao’s words mean, this Peng Kangshun is not only mediocre in ability, but also ugly in appearance, and his mood drops to the bottom in an instant.
Ruhui, however, held a different opinion and said, “Sister, don’t listen to your mother’s one-sided remarks. Since Dad chose this Peng Kangshu, he must have his own advantages. Sister, don’t worry, we will let Ah Zhan help us find out. .”
Coincidentally, that night, Ning Zhan went home.
Knowing Ruyi’s worries, Ning Zhan said, “Peng Kangshun is sixteen years old this year, and he is already the deputy lieutenant of the seventh grade. Big sister, he got this position on his own.” This means that Peng Kangshun’s ability is not bad. Of course, someone like the eldest princess is incomparable.
“Mother said she looks ugly.”
Ning Zhan frowned and said, “Peng Kangshun looks very decent.” His appearance was not particularly outstanding, but he definitely had nothing to do with ugliness.
Ruhui added, “How does he compare to his father?” Ning Hai looked rougher, if he was rougher than his father, he couldn’t bear to look directly at him.
“How can he compare to Dad!” Seeing Ruyi’s face down, Ning Zhan said with a smile, “Don’t worry! Peng Kangshun is not bad looking.”
Ruyi asked, “Really?”
Ning Zhan thought for a moment and said, “If eldest sister is not at ease, I will arrange for you to meet. If eldest sister is not satisfied, I will write to father and ask him to dispel the idea.”
As long as it’s not ugly, Ruyi said: “Marriage is a major event, and the parents’ life matchmaker’s words.” Since this meaning was set by Ning Hai, the children can’t go against it.
Ning Zhan hummed and said, “Eldest sister, although the Peng family’s conditions are not particularly good, their family is simple, and Mrs. Gong Changhou is easy-going. You don’t have to worry about being troubled by your mother-in-law when you marry into the Peng family.”
Ruhui was a little puzzled and asked, “Azhan, how did you know these things?”
Ning Zhan smiled and said: “Of course I have inquired about it. Big sister, Mrs. Peng has given birth to two sons and two daughters; the eldest daughter is married, and the fiancée of Gong Chang’s eldest son is a cheerful girl; the youngest daughter is still young, but innocent. Lively. I believe that if you marry, you will definitely get along well with them.” With a wishful temper, if you meet a cunning concubine or sister-in-law, you will definitely be bullied.
The wishful heart just fell back to its original place. She does not seek glory and wealth, but only wants to live a peaceful and happy life.
Mrs. Peng’s people did not find anything after inquiring. In particular, the eldest girl of the Ning family seldom went out, and there were no bad rumors.
After thinking about it, Mother Peng found Peng Kangshun and told him about it.
Peng Kangshun was a little dumbfounded: “You mean, Mrs. Anyang Uncle wants to give me her eldest daughter?”
The Peng family is a marquis, speaking higher than the earl of the Ning family. But the Peng family is only a marquis of three generations, and there is no special background, and Peng Kangshun is still the second son and cannot be a marquis. And Uncle Anyang was the queen’s uncle, and Ning Zhan was the prince’s companion, so the Ning family still had a lot of room for improvement. If he could marry the eldest girl of the Ning family, it would be no less than a pie in the sky for him.
Seeing that her son was so happy, she felt a little silly. Mrs. Peng said, “If there is no problem, this is a good marriage that you can’t find. But I’m afraid that this is not a pie, but a discus.”
Peng Kangshun immediately woke up from his excitement: “Mother, what do you mean, is there something wrong with the eldest girl of the Ning family?”
If there is no evidence, Peng’s mother dare not say nonsense: “I just have this worry.”
Peng Kangshun said, “Mother, have you sent someone to inquire?”
Mother Peng said with a sigh, “I sent someone to inquire, but I only said that Mrs. Anyang and the two girls rarely go out.”
“anything else?”
Mother Peng said: “Three years ago, Uncle Anyang hired a nanny from the palace to teach the two girls. The rest is gone.”
Hearing this, Peng Kangshun immediately said, “Mother, tomorrow, the official media will be sent to the Ning family to propose marriage.” With the guidance of the nanny in the palace, the eldest girl of the Ning family will definitely not do anything overstepping.
Mrs. Peng hesitated, and said, “Kangshun, I’d better let my mother inquire about it.”
Peng Kangshun said: “I’m afraid that when we find out, the Ning family thinks that we are not sincere and unwilling.” After this village, the store will no longer exist. He would never even think about marrying such a helpful wife in the future.
“Have you thought about it? Don’t regret it?”
Seeing that Peng Kangshun did not change her mind, Mrs. Peng sent the steward’s wife to invite the official media.
On the second day, the official media went to the Ning family to propose marriage.
The Xiao family did not promise but did not refuse, just said to think about it. As soon as the official media heard it, they knew that this was a story, and the so-called consideration was also a manifestation of the woman’s restraint.
Two days later, Mrs. Peng invited the Ning family to propose marriage on the official media. The first rejection is reserved, and if you reject it again, it is not sincere. Xiao Shi was unwilling, and still promised a marriage.
The day after the engagement, Ning Zhan invited Peng Kangshun to the Fortune Restaurant for dinner, accompanied by Qiyou. When he came out of Fortune Restaurant, Peng Kangshun shuddered. I was so nervous just now that I was sweating. When the wind blows, it naturally feels cold.
When he got home, Mrs. Peng saw him and asked, “The Prince Anyang asked you for a drink? What did you say?”
Peng Kangshun said softly, “Anyang Bo Shizi said that the eldest girl of the Ruoning family has a soft temperament, and I hope I will treat her well in the future.”
“What about other than that?”
Peng Kangshun hesitated and said, “The fourth prince was there at the time, and he wouldn’t allow me to take a concubine in the future.” As for Qiyou’s threat to say that if he dared to take a concubine, he would make his three legs become two, and he would hide it. I didn’t say anything.
Mrs. Peng was not unhappy when she heard this, but said with a smile: “In this way, the relationship between Uncle Anyang and the fourth prince is very good.” Otherwise, she would not be meddling.
Peng Kangshun thought about the way the two got along at that time: “Well, the relationship is very good, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are brothers.”
Not long after the marriage was decided, Mrs. Peng heard a rumor that the eldest girl of the Ning family had an affair with someone. It was only because Uncle Anyang disliked the poor and loved the rich to beat the mandarin ducks, and the two of them failed.
I had doubts about this marriage, but when she heard this rumor, Mrs. Peng’s face turned blue with anger.
However, she was still sensible, and did not run to the Ning family to withdraw from her family in a fit of anger. Instead, he went to Peng Kangshun and told him about it: “You go to the Prince of Anyang, and ask what is going on? If it is true, even if Anyang is the uncle of the empress, we have to retire from such a marriage. ”
Peng Kangshun didn’t believe it, and said, “Mother, I think this is a rumor spread by someone with a heart. If not, why did it come out after I got married to the Ning family.”
“It’s better for you to ask.” There’s no truth to it, why did other people arrange her without arranging it! Of course, she will also send someone to inquire secretly. I just hope this isn’t true.
Peng Kangshun found Ning Zhan and asked, “Azhan, did your family offend anyone?” This was a rather euphemistic question.
Ning Zhan asked strangely, “What’s wrong?” His father has offended many people, and Yan Wushuang has always wanted to kill his father! However, these are the disputes of adults, and they should not be asked by Peng Kangshun. I’m afraid there is something else.
After talking about the rumors outside, Peng Kang said: “I suspect that the person who spread this rumor has ulterior motives, and the purpose is to separate me and Ruyi.” This also showed his attitude.
This rumor was only in a small area and did not spread widely. After all, the Ning family had the support of the queen. I don’t dare to say nonsense without any evidence, otherwise I will offend Uncle Anyang. Ning Zhan was always in the palace, and the Xiao family seldom went out, so the Ning family didn’t know about this rumor.
