Catching an adulterer at the beginning, the mistress of the Marquisate went crazy
Chapter 119 3 candidates
"grandmother……"
Liu Tianjia looked at Tian reluctantly.
Tian let go of Liu Tianjia and patted her hands gently.
"Go ahead. Grandma will take care of things for you."
"Thank you, grandma." Liu Tianjia responded respectfully and turned to walk out the door.
As Liu Tianjia left, all the servants serving in the room also left.
"Tell me, what is the matter with you two coming here together?"
Liu Lanqi glanced at Lin, wanting her to speak, but she just smiled faintly and sat there quietly.
Unable to wait for Lin to speak, Liu Lanqi had to go on his own.
"Mother, Jia Jie'er is not young anymore, and her marriage has always been on my mind and my wife's mind..."
When Liu Lanqi and Lin came over together, Tian guessed that the purpose of their visit was for Liu Tianjia's marriage. She didn't expect that the couple really wanted to marry her to a poor scholar, and her face immediately darkened.
"Boss, my family is from a poor family. No one knows better than you how difficult it is for people from poor families to climb up. I absolutely do not agree with the marriage you are talking about."
"Mom, can you please listen to what I have to say first?"
The other party was her own mother. She was interrupted in the middle of her words. Even though she was unhappy, Liu Lanqi could only patiently say: "Mom, Jia Jie has called me uncle for eighteen years. No matter what, I really love her..."
Tian interrupted again, "Our Jia Jie'er is born to be a young lady. I will never agree to her marrying a poor scholar."
"no……"
He was interrupted again and again before he could even finish his words, and Liu Lanqi's patience was running out.
"Mom, I have found three marriages for Jia Jie, and they are all good..."
"Three? Didn't she only marry a poor scholar?"
Tian interrupted again.
"Jia Jie'er is my niece. How could I, as her uncle, push her into this fire pit? I don't know where this girl heard these rumors from, but she actually came to my mother before anything was confirmed."
Hearing what Liu Lanqi said, Tian's eyes flashed with unnaturalness, and finally calmed down.
"Tell me which marriages you have chosen?"
"The first one is also the one with the highest status. He is Han Zhiqing, the Minister of Rites. He is thirty years old this year. His wife passed away last year, leaving behind two legitimate sons, three illegitimate children, and five concubines."
After listening to Liu Lanqi's conditions, Tian didn't even think about refusing.
"My sister Jia is only 18 years old. Not only does she want to marry an old man, but she also has to be a stepmother to several children. How can this be possible?"
Hearing Tian's refusal, Liu Lanqi was not angry and continued, "The second one is a sixth-rank military commander, 23 years old this year, with average looks, never married, and no parents or elders at home. Jia Jie'er can be the head of the family after she marries him."
In the minds of the older generation, not having parents and family means having weak kinship. Although life will be much easier without the pressure from parents-in-law, there is no one to help when something happens, especially when the other party is a military general and may not stay at home all year round. This leaves Liu Tianjia alone guarding an empty house. How is she going to survive?
However, this person's conditions were quite good, so Tian did not refuse it outright.
"What about the third person?"
"The third person is the son of a landlord in Zhuozhou City. He is not only handsome, but also of the same age as Jiajie. He passed the imperial examination step by step with his own abilities.
If he can pass the examination next year, he can become a Jinshi. Even if he fails the examination next year, with my arrangement, he can get a job as a county magistrate outside, and she can become an official wife from then on.
At the same time, his family is extremely wealthy. Even if Jia Jie'er doesn't become an official, she will be able to live a worry-free life if she marries him."
After hearing the three marriage proposals mentioned by Liu Lanqi, Tian couldn't make up her mind for a moment.
"Boss, can you tell me which one of these three people Jia Jieer should choose?"
"Mother, marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers. After all, I am only Jiajie'er's great uncle. The choice of marriage depends on my second brother and his wife and Jiajie'er."
After that, Liu Lanqi said calmly: "Mother, these three marriages can only be delayed for three days at most. You and my second brother and his wife must give me an answer within three days."
"It's a lifelong thing for a girl to get married, so she should find out everything about the marriage..."
"Mom, since my son dared to bring this up, he must have already found out about these three families. No matter which one she chooses, Jia Jie'er's future will not be too bad."
After hearing what Liu Lanqi said, Tian slowly felt relieved.
"I will tell your second brother and sister-in-law about this."
Lin looked at Tian, who seemed to be deep in thought, with a sneer on her lips.
These three people sound good, but actually they all have some problems behind the scenes. Those problems may not be a big deal in the eyes of men, but they are big problems in the eyes of women.
However, since Liu Lanqi had already made such a promise, she naturally would not pour cold water on him. It just depended on which fire pit Liu Tianjia chose to jump into.
Yes, in Lin’s eyes, these three people are all fire pits.
It would be bad enough that she would become a stepmother after marrying the first man, but she would also have to fight with all the concubines in that man's backyard. How could Liu Tianjia, a little girl in her teens, possibly defeat those old people?
The second is that his ordinary appearance actually beautified his features, because that man not only had a full beard, but also had a hideous scar on his face.
Although military generals do not care about their appearance, and even the scars on their faces are medals of their bravery in killing the enemies, which girl would like to face a ferocious face all day long?
The third one, he does look good, with his uncle Liu Lanqi, the Minister of Personnel, around, he can indeed get a government job. It would be good if he could pass the imperial examination, but if he could only pass the imperial examination, he could at most be a fifth-rank official in this life, and it would be difficult for him to return to the capital.
Lin didn't like any of these three men, but since it wasn't her daughter who was going to marry, she didn't care.
Although Tian didn't understand the twists and turns in the court, she could read people's expressions.
Although Lin sat there without saying a word, it was obvious that he did not value these three families. However, Liu Tianjia was getting older and older, and if he continued to delay, it would be difficult to find even such a person.
As for the young man from the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion who made her fall in love at first sight, he hasn't shown any expression until now, which shows that he is not a serious person.
At the same time, the Liu family already had two daughters married into the Marquis's Mansion, and sending another one over would just be icing on the cake. Tian was not very enthusiastic about this matter either.
"Lin, what do you think of the three candidates proposed by the boss?"
Hearing what Tian said, Liu Lanqi also set his sights on Lin...
