Chapter two hundred and twenty seventh matchmaker

The entrance of the alley was still very lively, neighbors and Lin Gao congratulated each other, and uncle also had ordinary colleagues to congratulate him.

Lin Yanchao invited the magistrate to enter. The two big characters "Lin Mansion" were engraved outside the house, and a plaque with the golden characters "Xie Yuan" was erected in the house.

As for the newspaper, it is still there. The good news. The man in the mansion was named Jie Yuan, the first place in the Fujian Bingzi Academy provincial examination in Yanchao High School, and the Beijing News was ranked in the Yellow League!

At that moment, the two sat opposite each other and drank tea in the lobby where the newspaper was hung.

County Magistrate He smiled when he saw Lin Yanchao's house, "I didn't look closely on the day the results were released. It was really exquisite when I saw it today!"

Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "But he is laughing at me when he lives."

County Magistrate He said: "But the house is smaller now and it is not up to the status of Jie Yuanlang. If Jie Yuanlang is interested, I have a house with three entry in Yijinfang, which is still open, so I will give it to Jie Yuanlang!"

Lin Yanchao said: "He County Magistrate He was kind to him, Yanchao was very grateful. However, although this place is small, I am used to living with my family. The tall house is comfortable."

He Magistrate He smiled and said, "Why should Brother Zonghai be so poor? I said something that I can't read? It's not just to change the family and become a farmer in the morning and climb to the emperor's hall in the evening. I have seen many scholars who passed the imperial examination and sent to the fields, recruit slaves, build large houses, and adopt beautiful concubines."

"Brother Zong Hai is the young Jie Yuan. He is the time to be proud. Why should he be so mean to himself?"

Lin Yanchao smiled. He actually didn't want to accept the favor of Magistrate He. In the future, he was short-speaking and said 'righteous and stern': "It is precisely because of the success of his youth that he realized that he has lived up to the truth. Compared with today's achievements, Fang Side still paid less. Yanchao was trembling every day, like walking on thin ice, and did not dare to take a wrong step."

Lin Yanchao's polite words, but it sounded unusual to He Magistrate He. He immediately said: "Jie Yuanlang has ambition to be Qingyun, and He has short-sighted eyes."

Lin Yanchao hurriedly said, "Where is the magistrate He? Yanchao is ashamed of it."

The night was noisy and the bustle of the day was over, and Lin Gao was washing his feet with a basin of water.

At this time, Lin Gaozhi saw someone outside the window and couldn't help but ask, "Who? Come in."

Soon the door opened, and both uncle and aunt walked in.

Lin Gao picked up his cigarette pier and asked, "What are you two sneaking around?"

The aunt said, "Dad, Matchmaker Xu from Dongmen Street is here to see you."

"Matchmaker Xu?" Lin Gao asked with a frown.

The aunt said, "Yes, it's the big matchmaker in the east gate."

"What did she do when she's so late?"

"Dad, you will know it as soon as you see him."

Lin Gao said immediately: "Then come in!"

The young woman walked in and it was Xu's matchmaker. As soon as she saw Lin Gao, she said, "Officer Lin is very blessed."

Lin Gaozhao said, "It's already late at night. What's the matchmaker Xu doing in our house?"

Grand Matchmaker Xu smiled and said, "Master Lin, there is a happy event in your family!"

"What kind of happy event?"

"There are many wealthy families who have been matchmakers to your family."

"What's wrong? Someone has proposed a marriage for our family's longevity?" Lin Gao said while smoking a cigarette.

"That's not the case, it's a matchmaker for your Jie Yuanlang."

"Oh, that's the son-in-law." Lin Gao walked by.

Grand Matchmaker Xu smiled and said, "Master Lin, what is the catching of a son-in-law? It's a marriage that can be tied up in a thousand miles!"

Lin Gao smiled and said, "You are not the only matchmaker Xu in the past few days. There are also matchmaker Zhou from the West Gate, matchmaker He from the North Gate, and matchmaker Ge from the South Gate. They have all secretly joined the four matchmakers in our provincial capital. They can all gather together to hang up the horse."

The uncle said: "It's not stopping yet. The matchmaker Zhou also matched the two families."

The matchmaker Xu was drunk after hearing this. There was also a matchmaker who was talking about the matchmaking for the two families. It was really a shame for the Iceman generation.

"As the saying goes, matchmakers. Infinite fight..." Lin Gao said.

"But there is another saying that you can't get married without a matchmaker," Xu Damn Matchmaker interrupted Lin Gao and said, "In this provincial capital, all the marriages I have matched are beautiful, the children are full of beds, the family is harmonious, and the marriage is prosperous, and the marriage is good. Master Lin should not be an ordinary matchmaker. Besides, Master Lin, do you know who came to propose marriage to Jie Yuanlang?"

"Don't say anything else. If you say goodbye to our Yanshou family, I will open the door to welcome you, and Yanchao will forget it." Lin Gao said.

"Master Lin, please listen first. It's Gong's Mansion of Tongxian, and Gong Zhuangyuan, today, I'm talking about her niece!"

The uncle said, "Is this really the case?"

"Can you still cheat you?" said Xu Da Matchmaker, "This young lady of the Gong family, a famous young talented woman, is not only not as flirted as a lady of the official family, but also well-educated. She is a good match for Jie Yuanlang! I heard that she has lived a life since she was a child and has great luck in her husband. Whoever wants to marry her is a great blessing."

"On weekdays, people who ask for marriage have broken through the threshold, but the Gong family has never agreed. This time, the Gong family has fallen in love with your family Jie Yuanlang, and even asked me to say, if you agree to the marriage, not to mention the makeup, just give you a street in the city! Master Lin thinks this is the Gong Mansion! If two families get married, it will be beneficial to Jie Yuanlang in the future. I heard that Mr. Gong has appointed a priest for the Imperial College and his disciples are all over the world! He said one thing, isn't it easy to become a Jinshi in Yanchao?"

The aunt was quite moved when she heard this, but the uncle's vision was much higher now, and instead said, "Matchmaker Xu, don't mess around. If it weren't for Mr. Gong's words, it would be like our Yanchao would not be able to win the Jinshi."

Matchmaker Xu said, "Oh, I just want to say that quickly, but marriage is not about being a good match. Let me tell you the truth, the Gong family is the first in our provincial capital, and there is no such store after passing through this village."

Lin Gao took a sip of smoke and said, "Our family already has a bride. He has been suffering with Yan Chao and shared the same bride. The eldest wife of the Gong family came in. Where can we put our bride?"

The matchmaker Xu said, "This is easy to deal with. The Gong family doesn't mind your bride-raising daughter-in-law being a concubine. The Gong family is a wealthy family and must be very stubborn. If the official lady gets married to the Lin family, she will not make things difficult for your bride-raising daughter-in-law."

After hearing this, the uncle was a little intentional and said, "Why not do this? We don't want these betrothal gifts from the Gong family. What if the lady of the Gong family marrys us as a concubine? This method can be the best of both worlds!"

The matchmaker Xu rolled his eyes and said, "Little official, you don't know what to do. Where can the official lady be a concubine? Even the innocent girl of a scholar will not be a concubine!"

Lin Gao knocked on the table with Yan Guo and said, "What you said, Miss Gong's family cannot be a concubine. Isn't our Qianqian a woman in Qingbai? Can she be a concubine?"

The matchmaker Xu said in a daze: "I just said that."

Lin Gao said immediately: "Don't say anything, I'll leave you alone. You want to say kinship to my eldest grandson. I welcome you. If you give your second grandson, you will not be able to talk to him. A real man is rich and not changing his wife. Please come late at night!"
