Chapter 237: It turned out to be the Zhou family

Mrs. Bai looked carefully at the album of ladies in her hand and sighed. After all, peace is a small place. No matter how you look at it, you feel that these little ladies are not worthy of their perfect sons. She turned her head and looked at Xiaozheng, the big girl who had been following her for many years, and said, "Look, these little women are either not well-looking, or very charming at a glance. No matter how inconvenient it is, they can't read a few. Although women are virtuous, they can't go too far. Alas, no one is worthy of my son. Why don't we ask his aunt to listen again? This aunt is naturally the sequel of Wang Hui, the governor of Qingzhou, Wang Congmeng's mother, that is, Wang Conghan's stepmother.

Bai Yitian jumped over, grabbed the album, and shook his head and said, "Mother, did you hear what your son was saying? These little ladies, my son doesn't want it. Don't ask my aunt. The little lady in Qingzhou, my son has never seen it, is either pretentious, or bullying others. Son, don't want it!"

"Well, Xiaozheng, let's ask Wang's aunt to help. The little women who come to Qingzhou Prefecture are more generous and elegant, right?"

When Bai Yitian saw that Mrs. Bai answered the question at all, he was even more angry. "Mother, my son can tell you in advance that his son doesn't care about anything grand, beautiful and elegant. What his son wants is the same, and he must be what he likes!"

"It turns out that my son has a little lady he likes in his heart." Mrs. Bai smiled so blind that she couldn't see her teeth. Xiaozheng squeezed her mouth and laughed with her. She reached out and patted Bai Yitian's hand and asked in a low voice, "If this matchmaker hadn't stepped on the door every day, she wouldn't have forced me to think my son's true thoughts. Let's talk about it. It's a little lady. My mother told you that as long as you like it, she also likes it in her heart.

"What did mother say?" Bai Yitian muttered in a low voice, but the joy in his heart bubbled again and rose up little by little. My parents have always been more permissive to themselves, and now that they have said that they can choose a wife, it has become more than half.

At the door of the house, Wu Niang and Liulang had listened for a while. Originally, they wanted to come in and ask what was going on, but before they entered the room, they heard that they were talking about Bai Yitian's marriage. The sister and brother looked at each other in consternation and didn't know whether it was appropriate to go in or stand at the door.

The brother of the Bai family is naturally good, outstanding and talented. His articles and poems, his riding and shooting skills, and his humor are no less than his eldest brother. To be honest, he is a little stronger.

Bai Yitian and Zhou Bo made good friends. Later, they were almost inseparable, and the families of the two families were naturally close. Now suddenly heard that the brother of the Bai family was about to get married, and the fifth mother couldn't help but be stunned. It turned out that the white brother in it, who wore a mutton fat jade hair, wore a blue silk shirt and a romantic figure, would also become another Is Lang Jun, a little lady, no longer his brother of the Bai family?

Inside, Bai Yitian just complained, "It's only the beginning of May. Why is the weather so hot?"

Rokuro couldn't help looking at the sun. Although the sun is big, he can't stand the heat by shaking the folding fan, right? Thinking of this, he muttered. Xiaozheng hurried over and lifted the curtain and said with a gentle smile, "It turned out to be the fifth wife of the Zhou family and Liulang, but they came to find my son?"

"Sister Xiaozheng guessed right." Liulang said, coming in to salute Mrs. Bai first. Bai Yitian often guides the Zhou family's five-niang Liulang to ride and shoot in his spare time, which is well known to everyone. Mrs. Bai looked at the two children in front of her and praised them in surprise: "It's only been more than a month since you two have run over again. It's sunny outside, and it must be sunny on the road. Wipe your face with a cool handkerchief to get rid of the heat.

Bai Yitian also looked over. Sure enough, Wu Niang's face was blushing, and it turned out to be sunburned. Wu Niang approached Mrs. Bai and smiled shyly: "It's not so delicate. Auntie, you are too polite."

Mrs Bai smiled and pointed to Wu Niang and said, "This child has always been simple and funny. Today, she also looks like a little lady. Sure enough, she is very delicate. You two, sit down quickly. Let's have tea and talk together.

Liulang looked curious, "I just saw the fourth sister standing at the corner opposite the county government office and kept looking at it. Is there something new? Why did my fifth sister and I look at it for a long time, but I didn't see why.

"What's new?" Mrs. Bai squeezed her lips gently and said with a smile. Liulang also smiled and sat aside.

"Four ladies ran to the opposite side of the county government to watch the bustle? Mother, what do you think is going on? No, your fourth wife has always been the quietest and well-behaved. How can she have this kind of leisure? I understand. It must be your idle sister-in-law. She can't watch the fun by herself, so she cheated the honest four wives to learn stories for her. It's so hateful!"

Mrs Bai looked at her unscrupulous son with a smile. Liulang picked up the cup in front of him and tasted tea with his face full of enjoyment. Wu Niang slowly looked at Mrs. Bai, then at Bai Yitian and asked, "Brother Bai, what does this have to do with my sister-in-law?"

"Why is it none of her business?" Bai Yitian nodded and said hatefully, "Your sister-in-law, that is, Zhou Dalang, can be spoiled without limit. Look, where does she look like a lady? Every day is full of strange things, and I have to be a child's mother, and I haven't been honest yet.

"What? Brother Bai, don't you think the eldest brother should spoil him and coax his sister-in-law? Wu Niang frowned slightly and said, Bai Yitian looked at her and shook her head with a bitter face: "Your sister-in-law is enough to go to the house to expose the tiles without spoiling her!"

After saying that, Bai Yitian sighed, leaned back on the back of the chair, lit Wu Niang and Liulang with a fan and said, "You two, don't learn from your sister-in-law. If you want to learn, you have to learn from Er Niangzi and Sanlang."

"The second wife of the Zhou family is extremely virtuous, and Sanlang is even more intelligent, which is rare." Mrs. Bai smiled and nodded. Wu Niang also bowed her head and concentrate on drinking tea. Needless to say, the eldest brother's literary talent is recognized by the Bai County magistrate. Now he has resigned from the post of Mr. Pingshan Village. For more than a year, more than a dozen gentlemen have also been recruited. Sanlang is only dedicated to preparing for the autumn examination. The status of the Zhou family is all on Sanlang. Although the second sister and the fourth sister are not as good-looking as their sister-in-law, they are also like flowers and jade, and their temper and temperament are also praised by people. They really have nothing to do. No wonder my aunt often worries.

After drinking tea together and gossiping for a while, he and Liulang got up and said with a smile, "It's getting late. I wanted to come to find Brother Bai for guidance, but it seems that the time is not right. Then let's go back first and come back later when we have time."

Mrs Bai motioned to the woman standing at the door, "Give the fifth lady an umbrella before leaving, but you can't sunburn the little lady's delicate skin."

"In that case, Shu'er thanked her aunt."

Liulang's eyebrows moved and glanced at her. This was not Wu Niang's style. Then he turned his head and looked at Bai Yitian and said with a cheerful smile, "Brother Bai, then we will go back. If we have time some other day, Brother Bai will definitely come to guide me and the fifth sister."

Since I didn't find out any fresh and lively topics, it's better to go back. It seems that Mrs. Bai is going to marry the brother of the Bai family. I don't know what kind of little lady is worthy of the Bai brothers who are handsome and full of literature and martial arts. In short, my sister-in-law must be very interested in this matter. Liulang smiled excitedly and walked out of the Bai family with Wu Niang.

Bai Yitian watched the sister and brother go out and return to the house, and saw Mrs. Bai looking at him strangely, "Mother, what's wrong? What's the matter?"

"Well," Mrs. Bai picked up the tea and drank it slowly, sighed, looked up at her son, and said sullenly, "Son, you are not... You refuse each wife so much, and it's not right for your mother. Isn't the person in your heart the wife of the Zhou family?

Bai Yitian's face slowly turned red and motioned Xiaozheng to retreat. Then he waved his hand and said, "This is not something that can't be said. Mother, son really feels that he is with the wife of the Zhou family... Anyway, his son and Zhou Bo are familiar with each other. If they can become in-laws, it is not a bad thing."

"What do you and Mrs. Zhou have..."

"What and what! Mother, where did you go? The son and the Zhou family have a good relationship, and they really like the wife of the Zhou family, but there is absolutely nothing to receive private help! Although the Zhou family is a merchant, the Langjun and the little wife of the Zhou family are also knowledgeable. Besides, is your own son the kind of insignificant person?

Mrs. Bai looked at him silently and focused on eating tea. After many meetings, Bai Yitian left. Mrs. Bai immediately asked someone to call Bai and come over, whispered what had just happened, and then said with a bitter face, "The Zhou family... what the hell is a businessman..."

Bai Jianran was stunned and was about to answer. Mrs. Bai sighed and then said, "In the final analysis, the second woman of the Zhou family is very good-looking and gentle, not bad, but..."

The county magistrate laughed dumbly and answered, "Madam, I worry too much. What kind of businessman is not a businessman? We didn't mean to let our son be an official. Although the merchant's status is lower, as long as Tianer is satisfied, there is nothing wrong with it. Besides, Er Niang is also very familiar with her. After all, it is not a bad thing to know the bottom.

"Hmm." Mrs. Bai nodded. Her son was simply perfect, and it was not easy to find a match. It can be seen that sometimes it is not a good thing to give birth too well.

After dinner in the evening, Bai Jianran talked about this with Xu Cong'an, who came to chat. Xu Cong'an also strongly agreed to marry the Zhou family, but sighed that Xiao Qi Niang was too small, otherwise it would be Bai Yitian's good match. However, Er Niang's stability, coupled with Bai Yitian's spiritual escape, is also quiet and complementary to each other.
