The words had already reached her lips, and she suddenly thought of the way Xiao Yu looked at her, clearly filled with disgust.
Xie Songhua was already sitting on the bed and quietly flipping through the pages of the book in his hand.
This picture suddenly shocked her, and she suddenly woke up a little bit.
Do you really want to?
"I want to marry Mr. Su."
This time Xie Li heard her own affirmative voice.
But Xie Yuncang's voice was full of suspicion, "Have you thought about it?"
Xie Li clenched her fists hard again, and her words became smoother, "Father, in your eyes, I have always been a dispensable existence.
Even when I was old enough to get married, you probably never thought about what kind of political resources you could use my daughter to get you.
Aunt Huang came to the Xie family with my wife. She has always been very cautious, afraid of making her father unhappy or making my wife disgusted with anything. When the time comes, my aunt and I will live as you please.
It’s just this marriage…”
At this point, Xie Li's throat couldn't help but choked up, and she couldn't speak directly. She waited for a while and then said: "But this marriage is, after all, a major event in my daughter's life. My parents may not pay much attention to it, but I myself
But there is no way not to think too much.
They are all your daughters, let alone the third sister, but Jiang Shuhua can marry into the East Palace and become the imperial concubine. I, my biological daughter, can only marry casually.
When I go outside, who doesn't say that I am the daughter of Ge's hometown? Now that Mr. Zhang Ge is in poor health, my father will become the first assistant under that person... Daughter... Daughter is a boudoir girl with limited vision and some
It’s normal for me not to be reconciled, right?”
She expressed her thoughts clearly and clearly, sentence by sentence, which surprised Xie Yuncang.
In his eyes, he really had no feelings for his concubine.
Just like her mother, she was just an object in the right place, without causing any trouble or anything surprising.
No tricks, no ostentation.
Xie Yuncang had never thought about how to treat such a concubine. This was naturally the responsibility of the inner house wife, and he had his own outside affairs to be busy with.
This was the first time that he heard her thoughts and demands from the mouth of his concubine.
But it just made him feel dumbfounded.
After a while, he hesitated and said, "Is this why you decided to go to Prince Chen's Mansion?"
"How is that possible!" Xie Li denied without hesitation, "I just set my mind on the third sister."
Seeing the confusion on Xie Yuncang's face, she suppressed the fear in her heart, twitched her lips, and acted as if it were natural, "Grandma will never take care of me anymore, and my father won't have the time to care about my future life.
Not to mention my wife, she doesn’t worry about anything in the house now, and I can’t see her, so what can I do? Who else can I turn to?
Except for my third sister, no one can speak for my marriage. She is so courageous that she dares to say no to my grandmother in front of everyone. If I can persuade her to arrange my marriage,
Just say a few words, with the prince’s connections, it will always be easy to find someone with a better family background than the Su family!"
"Is this what you think?"
"Otherwise, what do you think father is?"
Xie Li didn't dare to say anything else, but Xie Li was sure of this. Xie Songhua definitely didn't expose that matter. No matter whether it was Xie Songhua's position or Xiao Yu's position, they couldn't tell Xie Yuncang directly.
She went to the palace to seduce Xiao Yu.
Therefore, even if Xie Yuncang had some conjectures in that regard due to the notification from people in the palace, he still had no way of confirming it.
Sure enough, when he heard her rhetorical question, Xie Yuncang was stunned for a moment.
Xie Li then added: "However, I also understand that the third sister is not willing to help me at all. In her eyes, there is no difference between me and Jiang Shuhua. She has never really regarded me as a sister. Naturally
So they don’t want to bother for me.”
"So you still decided to marry into the Su family?"
Hearing Xie Yuncang's question, Xie Li quickly said: "Can father still plan a better marriage for me?"
"What is better?" Xie Yuncang sneered, "Do you think that marriage is a business? Both parties weigh their weight on the scale to see who is worth more?"
Seeing that Xie Li was silent, Xie Yuncang's expression became serious, "If you are willing to believe in being a father, then live a good life with Mr. Su in a down-to-earth manner.
Others think that the Su family's family background is low. If you also hold such thoughts, your life will be miserable in the future no matter how easy it is. You also said that Zhang Shoufu's health is dying, and now is the critical moment.
If you regret your marriage to the Su family right now, what will the people outside think of you? How will they think of my Xie family? Then whoever comes to marry you at this time, what kind of good family can they be? You feel good in your heart
Think about it!”
After saying that, he still went behind the desk, no longer looking at his concubine, "You said that I never care about what you mother and daughter think, so now I will give you another chance. Before night, you send
Come here personally and tell me your answer, do you want to go to Su's house?"
Xie Li knelt beside the chair, her legs and feet almost numb. After hearing these words, she raised her eyes and glanced at her father. She finally responded in a low voice, then stood up slowly while holding on to the chair, and bowed before retreating.
Go down.
It wasn't until she reached her room that she felt that her whole body was a little weak, and she simply leaned on the bed.
Her back was so cold that she was so frightened that she broke into a sweat.
If she hadn't seized the opportunity to present her excuse today, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been a question of questioning.
Even if she was unwilling to do so, she had to admit that if there was no comparison, the Su family was indeed a pretty good marriage.
If she accidentally exposed her traces today, I'm afraid Xie Yuncang would be able to ask her to leave the capital tomorrow, and then properly arrange the marriage between the Xie family and the Su family.
But after passing today's test, she didn't feel relaxed at all.
After today, she won't have any chance.
Staring at the tent ceiling blankly, Xie Li felt her chest was so tight that she couldn't breathe.
At this moment, Aunt Huang walked in happily, "I said it was a good thing that your father asked you to come over, right? When did you ever see him caring about us mother and daughter like this?!"
Xie Li felt very irritated when she heard her voice, and her brows immediately wrinkled.
However, Aunt Huang didn't seem to notice at all. She came forward and patted her daughter's arm, "Stop lying down and go out and take a look. These people will be your right-hand man in the Su family in the future!"
Hearing this, Xie Li was stunned, "Who is it?"
As he said that, he quickly got up from the bed and hurried to the door. Sure enough, he saw a housekeeper outside followed by a group of people, all standing there with their heads bowed.
When the housekeeper saw Xie Li, her face smiled like a flower.
"Fourth girl, this is what the master just asked the slave to find. He is going to bring the girl to the Su family. Miss, let's take a look. If there is anything you don't like, just tell the slave, and the slave will find it according to your request.
