My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

Hu's trusted maid Bai Lu came out and secretly gave Yue Jie'er a wink.

Sister Yue had the three children taken to the side and asked quietly, "What happened?"

Bai Lu whispered, "The Marquis heard about the engagements that Duke Dingguo had arranged for two young masters, so he came to look for Madam. He wants to find a marriage for his son that is better than the two young masters of the Duke Dingguo's mansion—"

Bai Lu didn't say the rest of the words, but Sister Yue understood it immediately.

His face darkened, but he quickly managed a smile.

Fortunately, Fu Zhijian still has some dignity in front of his daughter and grandson.

Knowing that his daughter had returned with her grandson and granddaughter, his furious expression disappeared.

When Sister Yue brought the child in to pay their respects to him and Mrs. Hu, if Bai Lu had not just said it, no one would have been able to tell that the couple had just had a fierce quarrel.

Fu Zhijian smiled and said a few words to the three children, then made an excuse and left.

As soon as Fu Zhijian left, Yue Jie'er arranged for the maids to take the three children to look for Bo Ge'er.

The three children really liked their uncle Bo Ge'er and went there happily.

Only Mrs. Hu and Sister Yue were left in the room.

Mrs. Hu looked at Sister Yue and said, "You knew the house was in such a mess right now, why did you bring the child back?"

Sister Yue's eyes reddened: "Of course I know, but I feel sorry for myself. If I come back, I can help me with some advice. Otherwise, I won't even have anyone to complain to."

After hearing this, Mrs. Hu couldn't help but feel her eyes turn red.

Let out a long sigh.

Sister Yue asked, "What did father say?"

Mrs. Hu rolled her eyes. "Your father's ambitions are too high. He heard that the families your fourth uncle and his family arranged for your two cousins ​​were just ordinary, and he was happy for a while, saying that he thought your fourth uncle would arrange for two beautiful women to come home for your two cousins."

"What are you talking about? Your fourth uncle and your fourth aunt, after so much selection, couldn't even find the princess. And now, after so much selection, they chose these two families. Their vision is really very limited."

"They also said that before, Brother Bo was never as good as your four uncle's two cousins. Now, your two cousins ​​haven't found a good girl. It's just right for me to find a good match for Brother Bo, to make him better than your four uncle's two cousins—"

When Mrs. Hu finished speaking, her face turned red with anger.

Although there were no outsiders around, Sister Yue felt her face flushing after hearing this.

This is a bit shameless.

Even though Fourth Uncle has separated from the family, as an elder, it is really unethical for him to comment on the marriage of two younger generations in this way.

Furthermore, it is really chilling that one is so eager for quick success and instant benefits in the marriage of one's own son.

Although Sister Yue has been disappointed with her father Fu Zhijian many times over the years, Fu Zhijian seems to be able to cross the line every time, making people even more disappointed in him.

"Mom, we can't be careless about Bo Ge'er's marriage, and we can't listen to father." Yue Jie'er really feels sorry for her younger brother Bo Ge'er.

Mrs. Hu waved her hand. "I'm his biological mother, I know what's going on. A few years ago, I had my eyes on several girls from different families. Although their social status was a little lower, their conduct and character were indeed good. But your father insisted on comparing everything to your fourth uncle's family, and he was forcing your brother to not marry."

"He doesn't even consider that your fourth uncle's two children are two or three years younger than Bo Ge'er. To be frustrating, your fourth uncle's family is such a prestigious one that princesses are waiting for their children to choose. They won't have to worry about not finding a good daughter-in-law."

"But our family has been doing well these past few years, even though your father hasn't done well. The only reason we've been able to maintain our status is because your great-grandmother is still alive. How can we compare with them? We are daughters from good families, and we may look down on them, but they won't look down on us."

"Your father is putting pressure on you, so your brother's marriage is uncertain, and the girls he favored are all married. Now you suddenly have the urge to find a good match. Are good matches like cabbages on the street, easy to find?"

"As a mother, how could I not want to find a reliable and suitable marriage for your brother? But now, don't even think about the civil servants. Those adults are more cunning than sieves. I'm afraid any of them who have some ambition or ability would not consider marrying into our family."

"Those who wish to marry into our family all have ulterior motives. Among the nobles, those of suitable age have already been chosen, and those who remain all have more or less flaws."

"I only have one son, Bo Ge'er. Marrying a wife is a serious matter and cannot be taken lightly. I was worried that your father would know nothing about what's going on outside and would just start talking..."

The more Mrs. Hu spoke, the angrier she became.

Fortunately, Yue Jie'er was arranged to marry early and she married back to her parents' home.

Otherwise, with Fu Zhijian's brain that is full of ideas, I'm afraid Yue Jie'er's marriage will be a mystery.

How could Sister Yue not know the difficulties that Mrs. Hu was facing?

I also know that what Mrs. Hu said is the truth. It is really difficult for Bo Ge'er to get married, as he is neither too high nor too low.

The mother and daughter sat facing each other worriedly for a while.

It was not until they heard the voice of greetings to Bo Ge'er outside that the two of them perked up.

The door curtain was lifted and Bo Ge'er walked in.

Bo Ge'er is now over 20 years old and has been suppressed by Fu Zhijian for many years. There is always a hint of sadness between his brows.

However, he himself has a gentle temperament. Although his expression is not cheerful, he has a kind of melancholy and cold air.

After coming in, I said a few words to Sister Yue.

Sister Yue didn't see the child, so she asked and found out that the child had been sent to Jin's house.

The mother and her two children in the room looked at each other.

Bo Ge'er was ashamed. "I'm sorry for worrying about my son's marriage. Actually, there's no need to look for someone from a wealthy family. I'd rather find someone from a lower-class family. As long as he has good character and personality and is filial to me, that's enough."

Bo Ge'er also knew what kind of person his father was, and he also listened to the news conveyed to him by his confidant.

Then he hurried over to comfort Mrs. Hu.

Mrs. Hu was in tears. Such a good child was delayed by his father.

The thought that had been lingering in my heart for a long time became stronger.

She didn't show it on her face: "Don't worry about this, I'm here for you! Just focus on studying."

Bo Ge'er met Hu's expectant eyes and could only nod in response.

Sister Yue, on the other hand, recalled the preparations made by her fourth uncle when he was going to take part in the Autumn and Spring Examinations. Although she could not remember much, she did remember a joke made by her fourth aunt at the time, saying that whether it was the Autumn or Spring Examinations, apart from anything else, the candidates had to have a good body first. Otherwise, no matter how good their knowledge was, if they were not in good health and could not get through those few days, everything would be in jeopardy.

She still remembered that her fourth uncle practiced martial arts and had always been in good health.

He then said, "Although studying is important, health is more important! I think it would be better for Bo'er to follow the old people left behind by his great-grandfather and pick up the lost skills. Otherwise, he will be tortured during the days of the Autumn Examination."

This sentence reminded Mrs. Hu. She still remembered when Fu Zhiyi took the imperial examination. He was in such good health, but he was so haggard after the exam that he had to recuperate for several days.

Life was the most important thing, so Mrs. Hu quickly added, "Your sister is right. I'll send orders to find you a martial arts master. I don't ask for anything else, just enough exercise every day to keep you healthy."

Bo Ge'er naturally nodded in agreement.

After hesitating for a moment, he glanced at Mrs. Hu and Sister Yue'er's expressions and asked, "My fourth uncle's cousin is getting married. Has Mother prepared the gift for him?"
