Su Xinyi was thinking of Su Chu. It must not be her own fault that made Su Xixian so hesitant. She was afraid that Aunt Weng would threaten her with Su Chu. New Google Search Reading

Su Chu and Su Xixian are brothers and sisters from the same mother, and Aunt Weng must know how to control her.

"Fifth sister, is Aunt Weng threatening you with fifth brother?" Su Xinyi asked, staring at Su Xixian.

Su Xixian's expression froze slightly, and she raised her eyes to look at Su Xinyi, with a bit of panic and embarrassment in her eyes.

Su Jingmo looked at Su Xinyi and then at Su Xixian, and for a while he almost couldn't hold back and cursed.

Su Xinyi sighed, "Fifth sister, fourth sister is right, you are really smart and confused for a while. Think about it, your aunt can't even make the decision about your marriage, let alone fifth brother's. To put it bluntly, Wu Brother's marriage is more important than yours, even Third Uncle won't make a decision easily and will definitely discuss it with Third Aunt. Even Third Aunt is so cautious about your marriage, don't talk about Fifth Brother's."

"You are so stupid!" Su Jingmo finally understood the crux of the matter.

Su Xixian lowered his head and did not look at Su Jingmo and Su Xixian. He said slowly: "My brother was born to my aunt. Sooner or later, my aunt will take care of my brother in old age."

There was no beginning or end to this statement, but both Su Jingmo and Su Xinyi understood it.

Su Chu wanted to support Aunt Weng. If Aunt Weng didn't like the daughter-in-law he married, it would be troublesome in the future.

By the time Su Chu took Aunt Weng to take care of her in her old age, the family must have been separated. By then, the third lady couldn't take care of her all the time even if she wanted to.

Su Jingmo said angrily: "Even if this happens, it will only happen decades later. By then, Aunt Weng may not be able to survive our father. Our father is still here, and there is no way Aunt Weng will go to the fifth brother's place to take care of her in old age." Besides, if the fifth brother still can’t take care of Aunt Weng after decades, that’s really useless. It’s useless to be an official or read a book. If you’re worried like this, I’ll tell my mother to pick some for the fifth brother. A great wife."

Su Xinyi:......

Su Xixian:......

After being scolded, Su Xixian seemed to have suddenly enlightened. She looked at Su Jingmo for a while and said, "It seems that I have really made a mistake. Fourth sister, what you said makes sense. Our father will live a long life!"

Su Jingmo sneered, "You are stupid and you still don't admit it. I think you can't get up from the mud pit like Aunt Weng."

The words of the two sisters made Su Xinyi hold her forehead and couldn't laugh or cry. What was this?

She looked at Su Jingmo and asked, "Which young master did Third Aunt show Fifth Sister to meet?"

Su Xixian also raised his eyes and looked at Su Jingmo.

Su Jingmo glared at Su Xixian, "Aren't you going? Why are you watching me eagerly?"

Su Xixian immediately said: "Fourth sister, I know that I am wrong. You have a lot of money, don't know me. Good sister, please tell me which family the young master is from, and I will see if he is a good match. As long as there is a way to let my brother Without being dragged down by my aunt, I will admit it even if you scold me."

"You... are quite thick-skinned." Su Jingmo even laughed out of anger, but she finally spoke, "It's the Qianhu Yinru who is the most capable of my father's men. Do you remember this?"

Su Xixian thought for a while, "I heard my father mention it a few times, but I have never seen him. Who knows if he is tall, short, fat, and thin, or if he has a good temper."

"What do you know? My father told my mother about this marriage. My mother was afraid that my father would be unreliable and asked someone to inquire about it. Yin Ru's father died young and his mother didn't take care of things. There are three brothers and sisters in the family. He is the eldest and has a bad temper. A strong person must also make progress, otherwise he would not be able to achieve the position of Qianhu alone. There is no choice in character or talent. The only shortcoming is that he is seven years older than you, so he is a bit older."

Su Xinyi covered her face.

Su Xixian listened seriously, and when she heard this, she said: "It doesn't matter if you are older, but a widowed mother has three children. You know that widowed people rarely get along well with each other. How is his mother's temperament?"

"What do you think? You don't care about things at home, and you are not a competent person at first glance. With your mentality, if this marriage can happen, you will be able to trap the person in a few days after getting married." Su Jingmo said.

Su Xixian said with a straight face, "I take it as your compliment."

Su Xinyi smiled, looked at Su Jingmo and asked, "Since this Yin Qianhu is doing well in everything, why hasn't his marriage been settled yet? Speaking of which, he is also a young and talented man, so it shouldn't be difficult for him to get married."

Speaking of this, Su Jingmo had something to say, "I heard from my mother that although Yin Qianhu has good conditions, he can't handle having a younger brother and sister, and a widowed mother. He is not worthy of being a high-ranking family member, so she feels that he has no support. The family background is shallow. If you look further down, Yin Qianhu himself is a young talent and is unwilling to give in, so the marriage has been postponed. "

Su Xinyi thought thoughtfully, if this is the case, the marriage seems okay.

A widowed mother doesn't care about anything. If she gets married, she can run her own family. Her husband is capable. Su Xixian has the support of the Duke of Qi, so there is no need to care about whether Yin Ru has a backer. The Duke of Qi is the biggest backer.

Moreover, with Su Xixian's status, as long as Yin Ru's mother does not cause trouble, his younger brothers and sisters can only respect this high-born sister-in-law. This marriage suddenly seemed that Yin Ru was just a member of a thousand households, which made Su Xixian a little wronged, but upon closer inspection, it was indeed a good marriage.

Yin Ru is capable and will definitely make further progress in the future. He can be valued by his third uncle and his character can be relied on. It is better to marry a husband with real power than to marry into a noble family and become a bastard wife, no matter if it is the second son who cannot inherit the title. Or the younger son and daughter-in-law are better.

Because if she were to marry into a wealthy family, Su Xixian's status as a concubine would be a disadvantage. Facing a group of direct sisters-in-law, she would be a dwarf and lack confidence, and she would not be valued by the head of the family's mother-in-law.

Although the third wife will take care of Su Xixian and worry about her marriage, she will never remember Su Xixian as her legitimate daughter.

Therefore, although Su Xixian is a girl from the Duke's palace, because she is a concubine, she doesn't have to think about marrying the eldest son of a famous family. Even if she marries the second son or the youngest son, she does not need to inherit the family business, but Anyone who has children and grandchildren in the family who strive to make progress will not agree.

Just like Su Chaoyan was born as a commoner, and Tu Sijing was also married to a commoner. Tu Sijing's biological mother was Mrs. Tu's dowry girl. There was a deep bond between master and servant, and Aunt Zhang died in childbirth. Tu Sijing was raised by his aunt, so even so, he still Not recorded by Mrs. Butcher.

Su Chaoyan had an excellent reputation outside, and he was also raised under the care of the second wife. The situation on both sides was almost the same. Tu Sijing was motivated, and Su Chaoyan had a good reputation, so this marriage was so easy to facilitate.

But Su Xixian was different. She had a troubled aunt, which was a big hindrance. Fortunately, the third lady stood up for her because of the Weng family's marriage, which invisibly promoted Su Xixian. Su Xinyi felt that if the marriage with the Yin family could be successful, the advantages would outweigh the disadvantages for Su Xixian.

After all, in her previous life, she suffered a lot from being in the wrong family.

Thinking of this, Su Xinyi looked at Su Xixian and saw that Su Xixian frowned slightly and didn't know what she was thinking.

Su Jingmo did not rush her, but turned to Su Xinyi and said, "Xiao Liu, what do you think?"

Su Xinyi looked at Su Xixian looking this way. She pretended not to notice and deliberately sighed and said: "It's not bad. The fifth sister is outstanding in appearance and talented. It's a bit unfair to marry a martial artist."

Su Jingmo's eyes almost popped out of her head, but after she saw Su Xinyi's secret gesture to him, she immediately understood and nodded, "You're right, if the fifth sister doesn't like it, forget it." , In fact, it doesn’t have to be him. Speaking of it, the only thing I feel is a pity is that Yin Ru’s mother is easy to get along with, and she can be the head of the family after marrying her, which I envy. "

When it comes to the last sentence, Su Jingmo means it sincerely. Her marriage is naturally good. The prince of Changnan Hou sounds very beautiful, but Mrs. Changnan Hou is still in her prime. She will have to endure ten years of marriage under the hands of her mother-in-law. It took a few years to get ahead.

So sad.

Su Xixian knew that she had a stronger temper, probably because of her concubine status. She had liked to compare herself with Su Jingmo since she was a child, and didn't want to be looked down upon, so she always had to do her best in everything. new

She would feel bad if she thought that she would have to look at her mother-in-law's face all the time and swallow her anger when she got married.

Thinking about it this way, this marriage seems really good.

"Why don't we meet with someone first before we talk?" Su Xixian looked at Su Jingmo and said.

Su Jingmo nodded, "Of course you have to look at the person first. Although my mother said it well, Xiaoliu and I also think this marriage is good. The most important thing is that you have to like him."

Su Xinyi also felt that this was reliable, and nodded, "Isn't that the reason for meeting each other? Back then, the Fourth Sister and the Prince of Changnan met each other first before getting engaged."

Su Xixian took a breath, stood up, looked at Su Jingmo, and said a little embarrassedly: "Then you accompany me to make amends to my mother."

Su Jingmo rolled his eyes, "It's just a few steps, can't you just go by yourself?"

Su Xinyi chuckled lightly, "Then fourth sister, please accompany fifth sister. Fifth sister wants to make amends with third aunt. Third aunt has good intentions, and fifth sister is right to do so. I will go back first. I have something to do. Let’s talk about it later.”

The affairs of the third room can be dealt with behind closed doors. If Su Xinyi followed, the third lady might not be willing to let Su Xixian go easily because she would be embarrassed.

Su Xinyi came back from the third room, thinking that if Su Xixian's marriage was settled, she would be next.

She doesn't really want to get married, but looking at the situation in her family, it's impossible not to get married, so what kind of one is she looking for?

The family status should not be too high. It is best if the family has a simple population. If you can get in, it will be the best.

Thinking of this, Su Xinyi also envied Su Xixian.

Oh, it's so difficult.

Su Xinyi is very self-aware. Although she is named by her mother, she grew up in the countryside. On this point, many families may not agree.

Although she was named the head of Yong'an County by His Majesty, this county head also represented her strong military strength. What the big family longed for most was family harmony and a respectful daughter-in-law, which she was not good at.

Anyway, just like in her previous life, she didn't need to think about these wealthy and aristocratic families, and she didn't want to marry into such a complicated family again. The world was not worth the trouble and suffering.

It is best if the husband has a good temperament and is progressive, his family background does not need to be too high, and his population is simple and easy to get along with.

I envy Su Xixian again, what kind of magical luck does she have.

Su Xinyi returned to the study with a sad face, and she might as well continue studying. Anyway, her mother was in charge of the wedding, so she just waited to see the couple.

After thinking this way, people feel much more relaxed, pick up the book and continue studying.

Su Xinyi's guess was correct. The fourth lady had been worrying about her marriage for a long time. She was looking around for suitable families, and even asked her natal sister-in-law to help. Mrs. Bu Gao sent a letter to her sister-in-law, asking her to go to Gaofu.

The fourth lady was overjoyed, opened the warehouse and selected some gifts, got in the car and went straight to her parents' house.

Su Xinyi had been reading for a long time, but she always felt that she had forgotten something. When she was taking a break, she suddenly remembered what it was, it was about the caravan.

Su Xinyi immediately asked Forsythia to call Zhan Qiao, and asked him when he saw the person, "Have you received a letter from Yulin Guard?"

Zhanqiao shook his head, "Not yet, Miss Six."

Su Xinyi frowned slightly, looked at Zhan Qiao and said, "His Royal Highness has received the news, why are we so slow?"

Zhan Qiao said: "His Royal Highness's letter is probably specially delivered by the imperial inn, so the speed will naturally be faster. If it is a letter written by Cao Qing and Young Master Biao, it will be delayed for a few days if it cannot be sent to the inn."

Su Xinyi thought the same thing, "Even if it's a few days late, it should be here in a day or two. You should pay more attention."

Zhan Qiao responded immediately, looked at Miss Six and asked, "Girl, are everything okay over there at Yulin Guard?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "The details are still unclear. His Highness only said that everything is fine. We will only know when the letter comes."

Zhan Qiao was happy, "As long as everything is fine, it will be fine."

Su Xinyi thought the same way, and said to Zhan Qiao: "Did I ask you to send the banknotes to Tian Zao and Bao Datong after the new year?"

"Don't worry, girl, it's already been sent. Counting the days, their reply should be here soon after Master Cousin and the others." Zhan Qiao said.

Su Xinyi nodded, "There is no war at the border now. Tian Zao and Bao Datong are two young men who are growing up. They have no additional military merit and can only fill their stomachs by relying on the little production in the fields. If they want to eat something good, they can only It’s money spent.”

"Girl, you are so kind-hearted. These two boys are lucky to meet you." Zhanqiao said, there are many soldiers at the border, and some of them have family members who can send money to them.

Some poor families have to rely on their children serving in the military to support their families.

Su Xinyi had suffered a lot herself, so she tried to make Bao Datong and Tian Zao suffer less. It was not easy for these two children. Not everyone could insist on avenging their parents at such a young age. Not everyone could have such perseverance. and courage.

On the other side, the fourth lady was stunned after hearing her sister-in-law's words, "Sister-in-law, who are you talking about? The young master of the Xiang family?"

Mrs. Gao smiled and nodded, "Mrs. Xiang asked someone to pass a message to me, saying that she met Xin Yi when she accompanied the third lady to visit the Prince of Changnan last time, and she liked him very much."

The fourth lady said: "Sister-in-law, you didn't even say that you want to see each other with us Xinyi."

"You are also confused. There is no news in the palace yet, so the Xiang family naturally has to be vague. Mrs. Xiang likes Xin Yi very much. I am asking you in a roundabout way. What do you think?"

The fourth lady couldn't tell for the moment, she just said hesitantly: "The third lady in our house is from the Xiang family, but in fact, the government and the Xiang family don't have much contact. Except for weddings and funerals during the holidays, the two families Basically, we have no other contacts. Sister-in-law, you want to say that Mrs. Xiang is attracted to our Xin Yi, but... what exactly does she like? "

When Mrs. Gao heard her sister-in-law ask this question, she nodded, looked at her and said with a smile: "I have always thought about this problem, but it's really hard to say. Mr. Xiang was in Dali Temple before and now he has just been transferred to Taipu Temple Minister. It's too difficult to talk about it. The Minister of Pusi is not as good as the Minister of Dali Temple. He is just a third-rank servant and is really nothing in the capital.

However, the yamen of Taipu Temple is different from other yamen. It is the last yamen among the five temples in the capital. Although its grade is not as high as that of Dali Temple, it has its own independent treasury. The emperor has no control over the money of Taipus Temple. The money there is called "horse price silver". I heard that when the late emperor was here, Taipu Temple had hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a year at its richest, which was equivalent to one-tenth of the national treasury. "

The Fourth Madam really didn’t know this, so she couldn’t help but be surprised when she heard what her sister-in-law said, “That’s amazing.”

"Yes, I don't know how many people want to enter Taipu Temple, but Master Xiang can go to Taipu Temple, which shows that he is very popular with the emperor." Mrs. Gao said softly.

"This makes it even more confusing why she fell in love with our Xin Yi." The fourth lady felt that this marriage was not appropriate, "Sister-in-law, what do you think Mrs. Xiang thinks?"

"I'm not Mrs. Xiang, so I don't know what she's thinking, but think about it from another angle. The Xiang family has a simple population, and Mr. Xiang holds an important position. I heard that his eldest son is also outstanding in literature and has already won the imperial examination. Wait until he wins again. The future of being a Jinshi will naturally be bright."

The fourth lady couldn't help but nod her head when she heard her sister-in-law's words, "Yes, if you look at it this way, the Xiang family is indeed a good family, and Mrs. Xiang's reputation has always been good."

"Yes, the family is innocent, the population is simple, Lord Xiang is in the emperor's heart, this marriage is a good one." Mrs. Gao said with a smile, "However, we Xinyi are not bad either. You can tell Mrs. Tai when you get back. , listen to Mrs. Tai’s opinion. If the government is interested, let’s meet in private, not in the name of seeing each other. Anyway, the two families are related by marriage, so even an outing together is nothing. Now that spring is here, it’s time to It’s a good time for an outing.”

The fourth lady nodded slightly, "Anyway, we are just looking at each other first. If Xin Yi likes Mr. Xiang, we can talk about the marriage slowly. If he doesn't like it, that's it."

Mrs. Gao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You, as a mother, you have to help your children think carefully about marriage. How can you leave it to your children? What does Xinyi know about marriage at this age?"

The Fourth Madam shook her head, "Sister-in-law, our Xin Yi has an idea in mind. Anyway, she has to like her marriage. The Dowager Madam said that if there is really no suitable one in the end, she is willing to recruit a son-in-law for Xin Yi."

Mrs. Gao: ...

"Really?" Mrs. Gao was really shocked, "Your wife really has some ideas."

If this spreads out, the ladies in the capital may have something to talk about. Is this pampering of children a bit too much? It may not be a good thing.

The Fourth Madam could tell that her sister-in-law was a little confused, so she explained carefully: "The Madam Tai said that this child Xin Yi is strong, has a fierce temper, and has great skills. I am afraid that this marriage will not be successful in the future. The family does not want to be wronged. Children, and Xinyi is the only bloodline of our fourth master, recruiting a son-in-law can be regarded as leaving a trace of incense for the fourth master."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Gao sighed, "No wonder, does Xin Yi know?"

"I mentioned it to her as a joke, but I don't know if the child took it seriously." The fourth lady said, not sure.

Mrs. Gao thought about it carefully and then said, "It would be great if Xin Yi is willing. You will have someone to rely on in the future, and the branch of Sifang will not break the bloodline. But, recruiting a son-in-law is not easy. , as long as any promising man is willing to be a door-to-door son-in-law, this person is not easy to find."

The Fourth Madam nodded, "No, so we don't dare to let the news out in the family. I told my sister-in-law that if you go, don't spread the word. If Xin Yi can find a marriage that suits her, I will happily marry her off." ."

Mrs. Gao naturally knew the importance, "If this is the case, what will be the response from the Xiang family?"

"I'll give my sister-in-law a reply after I go back and discuss it with the Madam." The Fourth Madam didn't dare to make up her mind alone, so she still wanted to talk to the Madam and listen to what the Madam had to say.

The fourth lady came out from Gao's house and sat on the carriage going back to the house. She thought about what her sister-in-law said over and over again. She felt that her sister-in-law's words were somewhat reasonable. The Xiang family is indeed a good family. Although they are not a noble family, they are Xinyi's. The temperament may not be suitable for those big families, and a scholarly family like the Xiang family is also an excellent choice.

Mrs. Xiang took the initiative to invite someone to come and mention this matter, which shows that she really likes their Xinyi family. If the marriage really happens, it will be easier to marry someone whose mother-in-law likes her than if she doesn't.

When the Fourth Madam returned to the house, she went straight to the Madam Tai. She didn't know that the Madam Tai had guests here, so she couldn't rush in, so she went to the side hall to wait.

Yao Huang served tea, and the fourth lady stopped her and asked, "Madam, who is here?"

Yao Huang said with a smile: "Mrs. Jiang is here to visit."

"Which Mrs. Jiang?" asked the Fourth Madam. There were many people named Jiang in the capital.

"She is Jiang Shangshu's wife."

The Fourth Madam was stunned, "Our family doesn't have much contact with the Jiang family, why would Mrs. Jiang come to visit suddenly?"

Yao Huang shook his head, "I don't know this."

The fourth lady nodded, looked at Yao Huang and said, "Go and do your work. I'll wait here."

After Yao Huang went down, the fourth lady could faintly hear voices coming from the main room, but she couldn't hear clearly what was said. However, the laughter continued, which showed that the discussion was pleasant.

After waiting for less than a cup of tea, Mrs. Jiang left, and then the fourth lady went to the main room.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw a smile on Mrs. Tai's face. She stepped forward to salute An and asked with a smile: "Mother, what makes you so happy?"

The wife looked at the fourth lady and said, "It's a coincidence that you came here. This matter is related to your fourth room. Sit down and talk."

The fourth lady was a little surprised. It had something to do with them. What kind of relationship did it have?
