Chapter 227 "Minimum" Standards

The outsider who appeared in the main hall of the Ye family was none other than the former guard Zeng, the current guard commander of the imperial army, and Ye Erhua's immediate boss.

To say that both the Ye family and the Zeng family were military officers, and both were officials in the same dynasty and both were in the capital, it was reasonable for the commander to visit Ye Laoguo during the Chinese New Year.But will this kind of ordinary official visit bring so many things?

Didn't see Commander Zeng come here in previous years?

Their Ye family guards the west, and the Zeng family has commanded the imperial army for generations, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior.Seriously speaking, the Zeng family, which has always been in front of the emperor, has a higher status than the Ye family.

So, why did Commander Zeng come here with such great fanfare?

Ye Erhua's inflexible mind sent out a dangerous signal that it was on the verge of crashing.

Before he could figure it out or ask for it, he was kicked out by the parents together, hugging his cub, and even hesitated.

Then he was slapped on the face by his son and sprayed with two saliva bubbles.

Commander Zeng came here for nothing else, just to visit his girlfriend's family.Before Ye Erhua and the others came, he had already said almost everything. Now even if Ye Erhua and the others left, he felt that it was not suitable for him to stay any longer, so he said: "When the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, my parents will meet you." Formally come to propose marriage."

After speaking, he politely said goodbye.

Ye Yao got up to see him off.

A group of Ye family patriarchs sat in the warm hall, completely unaware of what happened just now.

The eldest girl of the Ye family has always had a weak sense of presence in the family. She was once taught by her aunt Ye to be a nondescript "every lady", and then brainwashed by her husband's family to become a fool. It's a wake up call.But after that, she spent more time living outside and less time at home.

Although everyone knows that Ye Yao has been reborn, and Ye Yao is the eldest granddaughter of the Ye family after all, so she still cannot be treated like other girls in the family.

If it were other girls, not to mention meeting such a bad family before, or simply killing her husband, I am afraid that the family would have already started to make trouble.How could she let a childless girl live alone for several years?

Now he still leads such young talents to come to propose marriage, oh, no, he hasn't officially come to propose marriage yet, but it's almost the same!

Married! Married!

However, when the matter was left to Ye Yao, even Grandma Ye, the head of the bandit village of the Ye family, would not directly say that Ye Yao should marry.

Aunt Ye, who was justifiably able to make an engagement for her daughter, was even more afraid to speak on this point.In her daughter's previous marriage, it was because of her arbitrariness that she met such a miserable family. Now...

"I... I don't care anymore, just listen to my daughter, as long as she is happy." My daughter travels a lot outside and has seen a lot more than her, an old lady who can't go out a few times a year. Divide horizons.

That's what I said, but seeing Ye Yao taking the initiative to send someone out just now, it can be seen that Ye Yao herself is willing.

The heart of being a mother is actually quite tangled.The daughter divorced at a young age.Of course she didn't like her daughter to be so lonely all her life, afraid of her daughter's objection, she could only secretly search for outstanding young men of the right age.

"Our family, Ayao, is beautiful and not very old. She is the daughter of a Marquis, and there is also a grandfather who is educated and sensible. He is especially good at making money and taking care of housework. It's just that once he met someone who was not nice. This man's The conditions cannot be set too high.”

When Aunt Ye talked to her sisters-in-law in private, she always said this, "I don't have high requirements. This man can be a little different in appearance, but he must not be short."

When the other aunts heard this, they nodded one after another: "That's the reason. A good man must be majestic. Don't say that our family is a general, just look at our uncle Tu and the little mouse. Even Xu Qilang, there is no one who is short." of."

There is a big age gap among the younger generations of the Ye family. There are a few girls who are still living in their boudoirs. As a mother, the requirements for a son-in-law are always not bad: "Although we don't value looks, we must always look dignified, have good facial features, and always look good. It can't be too bad. But after all, our family is all practicing martial arts, and the skin is darker, so we can't be too fussy."

Aunt Ye said again: "It's okay to have a lower family background, but it can't be too bad."

The sisters-in-law set the standards for the son-in-law of the Ye family by talking to each other.According to this "minimum" standard, Aunt Ye had already gone through all the school-age young men in the capital, and found that there was always a fly in the ointment, so she never mentioned this matter to her daughter.

Now Commander Zeng is here, with a good family background, good character, handsome and upright, he is already the Commander of the Imperial Army at a young age, and his age is also suitable. It seems that there is no more suitable son-in-law candidate than this.

But: "Didn't you say that... Ke wife?"

Ye Yao came back after seeing Commander Zeng off, and when she heard this as soon as she entered the door, she put on a pretty face and said, "They still say I'm Kefu!"

The rumors that the Zeng Commander's wife was restrained did not come for nothing.When he was young, he used to marry him with his fingertips, but the girl died before she was a year old.When he was old, he also married a wife, but after less than half a year of marriage, he contracted a serious illness and passed away.

After that, His Majesty gradually used him more and more, and he gradually became uninterested in marriage, so he kept procrastinating like this.The elders in the family mentioned it a few times, but seeing that he was so busy that he even had time to sleep, they gradually stopped mentioning it, thinking that it was his fate that didn't come.

No matter when it is, public opinion is always much more tolerant of men than women.

Ye Yao is aware of her "reputation" outside, compared to Commander Zeng, it is more than a little ugly.Even if Tu Hao had taken measures to deal with her reputation, people still knew in their rationality that she and Li Cuo were not her fault, and the cause of her ex-husband's death was not her fault.But in terms of marriage, if there are other options, she will never be the first consideration.

She knew her situation clearly, and she didn't want to be the second best choice at all, so she didn't think about remarrying.Let me say something that my parents may not want to hear. As a woman with money and status, she no longer needs marriage to bring her anything else. It is better to raise a few face heads to make her life easier and happier. .

She didn't expect to meet someone like Commander Zeng.Now that she has met, she will not belittle herself.

Ye Yao had made up her mind, and the parents couldn't say anything more, after all, Commander Zeng was a good candidate no matter what.They also put one last line in their hearts, and they had to see how the Zeng family formally came to propose marriage on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.

When the news reached the Tu family, Tu Hao was being supported by Xu Mingxu, sending a group of students away.

He saw Ye Erhua coming on horseback, he didn't care about anything else, he picked up a small ruler, pinned his cousin on the ground and whipped him.

No door let in!

Beat up in the street!

Ye Erhua, who had a huge psychological shadow drawn out by a small ruler since she was a child, did not even dare to run away, and she was especially useless for being smoked. While being whipped, she defended herself: "It's not good to eat too many snacks, really. It's not me. It was said by the imperial doctor. Don’t you remember? There are so many snacks, you can’t finish them all by yourself, and they will go bad after a long time..."

It’s okay if he doesn’t say anything, but when he opened his mouth, the little mouse almost turned into a Saiyan mouse state, gnashing his teeth: “Do I still have to thank you for eating all my food reserves?”

After a violent beating, Ye Erhua cried and looked at the broken little ruler on the ground: "The little mouse's body is really healed." The ruler could be pulled off immediately.

Xu Mingxu took the little mouse that had consumed a lot of energy back to the house: "Cousin, please come in." Well, the physical strength of his own little mouse obviously still has great potential to be tapped!

In fact, bamboo is flexible, how can it be easily broken?The main reason was that Ye Erhua seemed to hide from people, but at the same time, Tu Hao drew the ruler to the dagger pinned to his waist.

It's fine for the dagger to be inserted in the scabbard, but the handle of the dagger is inlaid with some precious stones, so it still has some edges and corners.Hitting it hard, Tu Hao was used to using a small ruler made of ordinary bamboo without any special processing. Although it was a few dozen times, it was not as serious as it actually looked.

He is just bullying and bullying weak chickens and mice.

Ye Erhua brought the news to him, and by the way, had a good meal at Tu's house.

The braised tendons are soft and glutinous in the mouth, and the freshly slaughtered beef is delicious no matter how you cook it.In fact, in their Ye family's village, some cattle were secretly slaughtered to eat, but the taste of the beef was worse than the one in front of them.

Ye Erhua's eyes lit up when she learned that this was a specially raised beef cattle: "If I go to Yangman, won't I be able to eat such delicious beef every day?"

Tu Hao didn't bother to talk to him, and concentrated on eating meat.It's a pity that this beef is too full to eat, and I feel like I can't eat it after a few bites.

Xu Mingxu knew that he was still a little angry, so he said to Ye Erhua: "When the second cousin returns later, let someone lead you."

Beef cattle are rare, let alone this beef is really delicious.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was so generous that he sent several cows, and the whole family couldn't finish them, so they had to share some.Anyway, the in-laws of the Ye family, Zheng family, and Xu family all had to give them away.

Ye Erhua was not too polite, and immediately responded with a smile. When the cold wind blew after leaving the door, she suddenly woke up and slapped her forehead: "Why did I forget to ask!"

In addition to reporting the news, he also wanted to ask his cousin for advice.If it were someone else, it would definitely be a good thing for his immediate boss to become his brother-in-law, but his immediate boss...he has heard how the Commander trains his own clansmen.The usual drill intensity is stronger than their imperial guards.

If the former commander became his brother-in-law... Eldest brother went to the border, grandpa is getting old, plus he didn't like to take care of these things, then they would fall into the enemy's hands... No, fall into the hands of the elder brother-in-law hand yet?If he practiced like Zeng's disciples, would he be able to survive this day?

"How about I go to Yangman to herd cattle?"

The author has something to say:

Big Sun (﹃”﹃): Eating too many snacks will make you fat.

Little mouse ╮(╯▽╰)╭: Anyway, I have lost a lot of weight, so I am not afraid of gaining two pounds.

Big Sun (→_→): Come here, stand on the scale, look at the numbers and talk.

Little mouse (#`盘?): ...This is the gross weight, no way!

Big Sun (= ̄ω ̄=): OK, take off your clothes, let’s weigh it♂
