Su Xubai laughed: "I didn't think too much in that direction. Although you are cynical, you are not that unreasonable. Since I can't help with the Hao family's case, then you should be more considerate!"
"Just be more at ease. Anyone who dares to stumble us on the road, I won't let them go at all!" Meng Shaoqing put his arms around Su Xubai's shoulders, "Just have a good rest these days.
Ichiban, if you have nothing to do, don't go to the other courtyard. People from the Hao family might follow you. I'm not in the other courtyard every day, so I can't protect your little wife!"
Su Xubai nodded: "I understand!"
In the past, two people who rarely greeted each other even if they met face to face, now walked out of the palace arm in arm, and everyone who saw them couldn't help but take a second look.
After leaving the palace, Su Xubai did not stay outside for a long time and went straight back to the mansion. As soon as he arrived at the door of the mansion, Su Xubai saw the carriage parked in front of the house. The carriage was gorgeous and was specially used by the Hao family.
Su Xubai stood there and watched for a long time, until the nanny next to Mrs. Su ran out to look for him: "Fifth Master, Mrs. Hao is here. You go back to the yard first. If nothing happens, don't come out!"
Su Xubai naturally understood what Mrs. Su meant, nodded, and then said: "Tell your mother about the current situation and don't let go, otherwise it will not be good for our family!"
Grandma responded and left.
Su Xubai went straight back to his yard, avoiding Mrs. Hao who came to the door.
Mrs. Hao came to visit at this time, just to inquire about the marriage between the two families. His Majesty granted marriage. According to the rules, the Su family should have hired someone long ago. However, because Su Xubai was unwilling, the Marquis was out fighting again. This matter
Things just dragged on, going back and forth, and here we are now.
Hao Jiaojiao's age is considered to be an older one in the family of her daughter-in-law. In a typical wealthy family, the daughter will have haircuts when she is fourteen years old. When she is sixteen or seventeen years old, she will see each other. If she is more precious, she will get engaged first.
She was raised by her mother's family until she was eighteen years old before getting married. Hao Jiaojiao is now eighteen years old. Although she is engaged, the Su family has been reluctant to hire her, and Hao Jiaojiao's age has been delayed.
Go down.
Now, in addition to age, it is more about the Hao family. Mrs. Hao is not a fool. It is impossible for him not to know about the things her son is doing outside. Now, they have to find someone who can support their family as soon as possible.
People, and the Su family, who had already been engaged to their family, naturally did their part.
Madam Su looked at Madam Hao sitting in front of her with disgust from the bottom of her heart. This lady of the Hao family was just the legitimate daughter of a small official family, but she married Prime Minister Hao when she was young.
Prime Minister Hao has been promoted all the way to his current position. Compared with Mrs. Su, he was not born in a good place, but he just doesn't know where he got the confidence and always looks up at others.
"Do you mean, do you think we should wait until your Lord Marquis comes back to discuss this marriage?" Mrs. Hao put down the teacup in her hand, her eyes gradually becoming cold.
Mrs. Su still had that faint smile: "As you know, Lao Wu is the youngest child between me and our Lord Marquis, so we are very important to him. Naturally, our Marquis has the final say on his marriage.
!”
"So, you don't take His Majesty's will to heart at all?" Mrs. Hao narrowed her eyes slightly, her eyes full of threats.
"I didn't say that!" Mrs. Su looked at Mrs. Hao in front of her and laughed, "I'm not like Mrs. Hao, who has the final say at home. In our family, we, the Marquis, still have the final say.
If my wife feels that we have violated your will, you can go to His Majesty and file a complaint. You may be beaten or scolded, and we will admit it. However, we cannot pay this betrothal gift!"
Mrs. Hao had the courage to come to propose marriage today. The prince and his entourage arrived in Beijing smoothly. Hu Sheng and Li Shufei have been detained by Dali Temple. Sooner or later, Hu Sheng and Li Shufei will drag the Hao family into trouble. Right now, the Hao family needs someone who can reconcile with the aristocratic family.
The competing upstarts were behind the scenes, so she put aside her dignity and came to the Su family to propose marriage.
But Mrs. Su was too lazy to understand what she was saying. No matter what she said, she used threats, inducements, and all the methods she needed. She just refused to agree with a smile, and pushed everything to that who-knows-who-is-who-is-being.
On the body of the Marquis who was fighting in the local area.
Mrs. Hao looked at Mrs. Su in front of her and felt a suffocation in her chest. The more she thought about it, the more she became angrier.
Mrs. Su had been listening to Mrs. Hao for a whole afternoon, and she was a little tired now. She got up and said, "Madam, if you have nothing else to do, just take a good rest here. I sent someone to prepare dinner. On weekdays, I
We all eat alone, why don’t you stay and eat together, Madam!"
"That's all!" Mrs. Hao stood up, "Since Mrs. Su said that you can't make the decision on this matter, I can't force anyone to make things difficult for me. Let's wait until the Marquis comes back to discuss this matter!"
Madam Su naturally responded with a smile: "Madam, won't you sit down for a while?"
"No, I'm going back!" When Mrs. Hao raised her head, her eyes were inevitably a little frustrated.
"I recently got some new tea. Madam, take it back and try it. They are all the latest teas from Jiangnan!" Madam Su looked at Madam Hao and said politely, "I'll give it to you!"
Mrs. Su personally escorted Mrs. Hao out of the house, and stuffed her bags into her carriage with all due etiquette. However, just when Mrs. Hao was about to get on the carriage, Mrs. Su suddenly said:
"By the way, Mrs. Hao should spend more time on disciplining the girls in the house. Don't always run to our house when there is nothing wrong, and let people watch, and inevitably they will gossip!"
As Madam Hao listened, she felt like she was holding back her breath. She couldn't hold back the smile on her face anymore, so she turned around and left without being able to say another word to Madam Su.
Mrs. Hao was in a rage when she left. Mrs. Su was not much better either. She laughed all afternoon and her face was almost stiff: "They want to drag us into trouble even when the disaster is approaching. When their family is at its peak, Lao Wu
I didn’t even look down on their daughter, and I look down on them even more now! If you insist on hanging on, all my good tea will be wasted!”
Seeing that Madam Su was angry, Mammy could only comfort her and said: "Madam, if things are sorted out here, Fifth Master can do his official work well. If Madam works harder, just think of it as paving the way for Fifth Master!"
Mrs. Su sighed: "I don't know what happened to the woman he was rumored to have saved among the refugees!"
