Faced with the slightly twisted expressions of Xu Wen and Xu Ji, Xu Hao first smiled but said nothing, and then used the marriage of a man as a marriage. The reason why he guessed the cause and effect was actually not difficult.

Over the past few days, he was able to find that the Xu family was not a rich man, and he had followed his parents to several noble families in the capital. The food, food, clothing, and clothing were far inferior to that.

Next is the cheap father who is responsible for managing the family's land. The Xu family has two manors in the local area, with paddy fields and dry fields totaling 500 acres. There are two manors in Fengyang's hometown, but the output there is much worse than that in Jinling.

Therefore, the Xu family has a poor family, but the Xu family not only has relatives from a royal family, but also from the Zhu family of the Ming Dynasty.

The second grandfather Xu Dagui was Duke of Wei, and his eldest daughter married King Yan Zhu Di, the second daughter married King Yu Zhu Gui, and the youngest daughter married King An Zhu Ying.

With this reason, the old lady had long thought of marrying a granddaughter into the royal family. Not only did she become so noble in her family, she could be considered a marriage kinship.

The problem is not only difficult to operate the marriage, but also the generous dowry required is enough to make people scratch their heads. The brothers Xu Wen and Xu Ji who were over 18 years old have never married.

Now taking advantage of the third uncle's official position, the old lady took the opportunity to acquiesce the fourth brother in secret to accept gifts. The excuse to the outside world was to prepare for a marriage for the two grandchildren. In this way, even if the second grandfather Xu Da knew about this, he would probably not say much.

It's really hard to make the old lady. She just seeks medical treatment in a hurry and is not afraid of being reported.

Xu Hao shook his head while drinking wine. Sure enough, what his mother said was true. The Xu family was full of air and empty-hearted. The annual investment could barely offset the expenditure, and there was no surplus for many years.

Young people are naturally full of endless imagination about their future daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, this era is not aroused the style of free love. For the Xu Wen brothers who yearn for their wife, even if they find out the old lady’s favorite candidate in advance, they can at least hire a matchmaker to inquire.

Xu Wenbai Ruyu's face added a little burgundy, and he said half expectantly and half worriedly: "Who do you think grandma can choose from? I don't know if it matches my temperament."

Xu Song said with a smile: "Brother is afraid, so he ignores her aside if he doesn't like her. He buys her three or five beautiful dancers, haha!"

"Nonsense." Xu Wen laughed and sighed with annoyance, "I can't compare to you. The elders are destined to pay attention to this marriage. Even if I am not happy, I have to respect each other in person. Not to mention buying a dancer, even taking a concubine will have to be postponed for three or five years."

The few of them did not use servants to serve them and spoke without any scruples. Xu Ji put the wine cup on the table in a gentle manner. Xu Songguang was quarreling with Xu Wen. Seeing this, Xu Hao picked up the wine pot and added wine to his second brother Xu Ji.

Xu Ji looked at the milky white wine pouring down and said, "It's better for your third brother to live."

"How do you say this from Brother Third?" Xu Hao asked in confusion.

Xu Ji reached out and picked up the wine cup, shook the cup, and said, "All the marriages of our brothers cannot come true. Who knows what the girl looks like for the suitable family? What kind of character! Alas, I have seen many similar things. The so-called equality of the family often gives birth to countless resentment, but it is God's will torture people. Your third brother does not have such troubles. According to me, your future wife should be from the Xiao family. The Xiao family has produced beauty since ancient times, which is really enviable."

Xu Wen sighed, "I also envy the third brother. Who doesn't know that the daughter of the Xiao family is beautiful and talented? During the Chinese New Year, I saw the little girls of the Xiao family who came to visit each other from afar. They are all very good-looking, especially one of them is wearing white fox fur, who is born like a fairy. It is said that the second mother intends to betroth her to you, and you are so lucky."

"Really?" Xu Song suddenly widened his eyes, and his expression was full of envy.

"Maybe." Xu Hao smiled faintly, and a beautiful face rose in his mind. "The eldest brother and the second brother don't have to worry about it. I've seen the old lady's intentions."

"Hey, can you tell the old lady's thoughts?" Xu Ji stared at the smiling third brother, very surprised, "Sir, tell me."

Xu Wen, who was drunk, shouted with great interest: "San, you said, if you are right, I will give you the snow."

"I dare not say it." Xu Hao still shook his head with a smile.

"San brother, why are you keeping me?" Xu Song shouted dissatisfiedly, thought for a while and said, "I will pay twenty taels of silver to add a pair of saddles to my third brother, how about?"

Xu Hao nodded with a smile and looked at the second son Xu Ji. Xu Ji stretched out his hands and said with a wry smile: "I am a poor scholar, what do you want?"

Xu Hao originally wanted to say that you should be proud of your second child when you take the exam, but doing so would seem a bit unfair, so he said, "You don't have to spend money on your money, I'm tired of staying at home. When you go to the capital, you will also bring me along. I also want to meet some noble people, see the appearance of the Imperial College, and meet the next few masters."

"That's not simple." Xu Wen slapped his palm, and Xu Ji nodded, "A word is certain."

The three brothers stared at Xu Hao attentively. This involved a lifelong event. They couldn't help but treat them as living horses, even if the person sitting in front of them was a famous and unreliable third brother who spoke unreliable.

"hehe."

Xu Hao smiled lightly and said confidently: "This marriage must be based on the literary and military affairs of the eldest brother and the second brother. For the sake of family considerations, the eldest brother may want to marry the daughter of a noble family, while the second brother will marry the daughter of a civil servant. This not only takes into account the ambitions and personalities of the two brothers, but also best suits the long-term interests of the family. How about it?"

"It's reasonable, third brother, you have really made progress." Xu Wen slapped the table excitedly.

"A family of civil servants, a family of civil servants." Xu Ji breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appeared on his face, but he disappeared randomly. "The third brother, your guess is exactly the same as I expected, but I have not passed the scholar exam yet, so I am afraid it will be difficult for me to be the eyes of a sixth-rank official or above in the capital."

Xu Hao smiled and said, "It's not that we got married at the same time. We still have more than a year left. With the talent of our second brother, we will definitely pass the scholar next year."

"Haha, thanks to the third brother's words." Xu Ji felt it helpful and laughed confidently.

Xu Song was the youngest and was a little confused. He was actually not very concerned about what kind of wives his two brothers would marry. He just followed suit and just grabbed a chicken leg and put it in his mouth to chew it.

"Whose family could it be?" Xu Wen frowned and thought hard. Unfortunately, there were countless nobles in the capital, and there were fewer than dozens of people who had friendship with the Xu family, which could not be predicted at all.

Xu Hao laughed and said, "What's hard to guess? It's far away from the sky and near in front of you."

Xu Wen was confused when he heard this and said anxiously: "Tell me clearly, don't imitate your second brother's poor habit."

Xu Ji looked at Xu Hao incredible. He couldn't help but look at the third brother with admiration. He thought to himself that the third brother had become smart after a short time. Could it be that someone mentioned him?

Xu Hao laughed, stood up and walked out with his hands behind his back, and said with a smile: "Brother, you are the eldest son and grandson, how can the old lady look far away?"

The three brothers watched the third brother leave casually and looked at each other. Xu Song scratched his head and said, "Why is the fucking third brother talking tonight? It's like a charlatan who travels around the house in the capital."

Xu Wen scratched his ears and said to his contemplative younger brother Xu Ji: "You have always been smarter than the third brother, have you guessed it?"

After a long time, Xu Ji smiled in a complicated expression, stood up leisurely, and said slowly: "Boss, you have nothing to do, you can go to the Duke's Mansion more often. I remember Yu Zhen is about to get out of the box, haha!"

"What do you mean? Hey, don't leave. It's not too late to get out after you make it clear." Xu Wen was shaking and about to stand up and hold his younger brother. Xu Song hurriedly reached out to support him, but Xu Ji, who was not drunk, had already walked away.
