Chapter 30: The Matchmaker
Sun Yue had a headache for these eight sumo wrestlers, but Zhao Guangmei came before he could see him, and he came in person.
Zhao Guangmei did not reveal her real name, so Sun Yue pretended not to know, but just bowed and asked him Brother Zhao. Zhao Guangmei's guards carried half a basket of gold. They opened it and didn't need to check it. There were five thousand coins. Zhao Guangmei generously said that she didn't need to look for it. This made Sun Yue sigh at the favoritism of the old lady Du for her younger son. He also made three thousand dollars inside and outside.
You should know that in historical records, Zhao Kuangyin's daughter was scolded to tears by Zhao Kuangyin because she wore a beautiful skirt. It was impossible for her younger brother to spend money like this. But he probably couldn't control her because of the old lady.
"Brother Yue, there is one more thing I have to ask you for it."
"Brother Zhao, come and listen."
"Can these sumo wrestlers of mine be kept in your house for the time being?"
"Ha? What does it mean?"
"Brother Yue doesn't know that my eldest brother disciplines us very strictly on weekdays. If you want to take this kind of woman home, even if my mother spoils me, I'm afraid my eldest brother won't agree. Even if I agree, I will be beaten up. I originally thought that I would buy a house outside and place them. When will I split up with my eldest brother before taking them over?"
"Haha, your idea is really creative."
"I came home yesterday. After asking, I found out that you are the prodigy who has been praised by the government! You don't know that my elder brother and second brother praised you when they mentioned you. I think we brothers have come to this and like sumo wrestling so much. It's better to keep them in your house. If I want to watch sumo wrestling, I will tell my elder brother to ask you to review your homework. He will be happy. How about it? Help."
When Sun Yue heard this, his face felt bitter. Thousands of divine beasts ran past him. You are cheating!
At this moment, he was already 90% sure that the person in front of him was Zhao Guangmei. Can you hide this little cleverness from Zhao Kuangyin? I am a prodigy, the future prime minister. What kind of image do you want to establish in the official family? Watch women's sumo wrestling with the three kings? Is it a good story?
But no matter what, this is also a good opportunity to make friends with Zhao Guangmei. He often comes in the future. Even if they are childhood friends, they will agree after thinking for a while, but he will still have to worry about how to arrange these eight women.
So, Zhao Guangmei and Sun Yue watched the sumo wrestling with enthusiasm for the afternoon. Zhao Guangmei also asked the seven of them to have a big pounce, just to see them swearing and the white waves were rolling.
Why are there seven instead of eight? Because Xiao Sanniang has been taken away by Sun Chunming. Do you know if Sun Chunming will eat this fat and fishy bite. What if it is eaten? It will be bad if you look at it yourself.
They also played horseback riding war this afternoon, but unfortunately, there was no horse factor this time. Sun Yue lost more and won less. Until sunset, he was hungry and the two of them were slightly less interested.
As Sun Chunming said, facing a twelve-year-old young man who is not very scheming, it is not too easy to fiddle with Sun Yue's IQ at the age of 30. Besides, they are all grassroots, so Zhao Guangmei has no deep-rooted ideological barriers in her mind. In an afternoon, Sun Yue's status in his heart has changed from a good friend to a friend of life and death.
The etiquette of the Royal New Year is very complicated. The key is that it has nothing to do with him, so Zhao Guangmei is not happy to go home. The two of them rode around their respective sumo wrestlers to visit the temple fair while the night was dark. After watching the performances, playing, and then shut up. It was not until the night fell completely that Zhao Guangmei returned home reluctantly.
Before leaving, Sun Yue complained about the skills of those storytellers in an unintentional way and promised to wait until he came to tell him the "Tianzang of the Tang Dynasty's Buddhist scriptures" next time. It was far from comparable to those storytellers. It was left with a button, which aroused Zhao Guangmei's appetite.
On the third day of the first lunar month, on the day of the sheep, Cao Ni'er tore off the crooked dog at the door and put on another strange sheep. The sheep was painted by Sun Chunming himself. It is said to be a sacred sheep from the east of Taiyi and auspicious beast. There is a very auspicious name called Pleasant Goat, which looks very cute.
After a morning of tense, Zhao Guangmei did not come again, but the matchmaker came.
People call her Chun Erniang. She is in her thirties. Although she looks ordinary, she is a serious official media. She wears a purple hood, a red trouser, and a crown. She holds a cool umbrella in her hand all the time. She is familiar with her when she comes to her house. She comes every few days. Although she returns without success every time, she is never discouraged. She speaks quite appropriately, and the family is not annoyed her.
Sun Chunming was drawing with a brush. When he saw Chun Erniang coming, he didn't say hello, but just smiled and said, "Chun Erniang is here on the third day of the first lunar month. I want to introduce to me which lady from another family."
"Look at what you said, you must be your favorite lady. I have been fourteen times before and after, and I have introduced you to six young ladies. But who has made you have a high vision? Who doesn't know how talented and capable you, even your son is a little husband. The old woman still said the same thing. To the south of Dongshuimen, if there is someone you like, just say something, and the old woman promises to help you become this good thing."
Sun Chunming smiled and said, "My second mother is looking for happiness with me again. I am a businessman and I have a bottle of oil. How could I be as good as you said? Since Mr. Mother didn't tell me about her kiss, could she come to pay New Year's greetings?"
"That's not, it's just here to wish you a happy New Year."
"Yeah, then I'm thanking you. Don't hurry to leave, drink two cups of Tu Su."
"Haha, I don't dare to leave. This time, although I won't match you, I'm here to ask the eldest daughter of the Cao family for others. I'll say hello to you and go to the next yard."
"Ni'er? How old is she? What kind of kisses to her?"
"Oh, it's not young anymore. It's already thirteen this year. I'll be old next year. I can't book my dear first."
Sun Chunming frowned unhappily when he heard this. Song Shi's marriage age was usually sixteen and fourteen. Here it refers to Xu Sui, which means that Cao Ni'er was actually just twelve years old. In the future, she just went to the fourth grade of elementary school. This requires lifelong affairs. No matter how she thinks, it makes Sun Chunming feel a little uncomfortable.
However, following the customs of the Song Dynasty, this is the atmosphere of the Song Dynasty. Especially for women, men can not succeed in the reputation of not marrying. After the woman passed the eighteen, she became yesterday's yellow flowers. He couldn't stop him. However, although he did not dare to say that he regarded Cao Ni'er as a girl for more than a year, he was at least a niece. He heard this and put down his brush and said, "Since that's the case, I'll go and have a look with you."
Sun Yue also had some good news after listening to it. He was not willing to let Cao Ni'er marry out so early, so he deliberately pretended to jump and said, "I want to go too, I want to go too, go see my sister's official ~"
