After the prince enters the play

Chapter 181 Chapter 181: Su Xinyi's Marriage

What Su Xinyi thought of was Su Chu, and it was definitely not her own fault that could make Su Xixian hold back like this. I'm afraid that Aunt Weng might still threaten her with Su Chu.

Su Chu and Su Xixian are brothers and sisters of the same mother. Aunt Weng must know how to handle her.

"Fifth Sister, is Aunt Weng threatening you with Fifth Brother?" Su Xinyi stared at Su Xixian and asked.

Su Xixian's face froze slightly, and she looked up 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 almost couldn't hold back his curse for a long while.

Su Xinyi sighed, "Fifth Sister, Fourth Sister is right, you are really smart and confused for a while. Think about it, Aunt Weng can't decide your marriage, let alone Fifth Brother's. To put it bluntly, Fifth Brother Brother's marriage is more important than yours, even third uncle will not make a decision lightly, he will definitely discuss it with third aunt, even third aunt is so cautious about your marriage, let alone fifth brother."

"You are so stupid!" Su Jingmo finally knew where the crux was.

Su Xixian lowered her head and didn't look at Su Jingmo and Su Xixian. She said slowly, "My brother was born by my aunt, and sooner or later my aunt will take care of my brother."

The words were endless, but both Su Jingmo and Su Xinyi understood.

Su Chu wanted to support Aunt Weng, if Aunt Weng did not like his daughter-in-law, it would be troublesome in the future.

When Su Chu took Aunt Weng over to take care of her for the elderly, the family must have been separated. At that time, the third lady would not be able to take care of her all the time if she wanted to.

Su Jingmo said angrily: "Even if this is the case, it will be decades later. By then, Aunt Weng may not be able to outlive our father. With our father still alive, it is absolutely impossible for Aunt Weng to go to the fifth younger brother's place to retire. Besides, if the fifth brother can't control Aunt Weng after decades, that's really useless. It's so useless to be an official and read some books. I see that if you are so worried, I will tell my mother to choose the fifth brother. A great daughter-in-law."

Su Xinyi: ...

Su Xixian: ...

Su Xixian was scolded for a while, as if suddenly enlightened, looked at Su Jingmo for a while and said, "It seems that I really missed it, Fourth Sister, what you said makes sense, our father will live a long life!"

Su Jingmo sneered, "Say you're stupid and don't admit it, I think you can't get up in the muddy pit of Aunt Weng."

What the two sisters said made Su Xinyi dumbfounded while holding his forehead. What's the matter?

She looked at Su Jingmo and asked, "Which family's son did Third Aunt show Fifth Sister?"

Su Xixian also looked up at Su Jingmo.

Su Jingmo glared at Su Xixian, "Don't you want to go? What are you looking at me for?"

Su Xixian immediately said: "Fourth sister, I know I'm wrong. Your lord has a lot, don't be as knowledgeable as I am. Good sister, tell me, which family's son you are from, I think it suits me. As long as there is a way to let my brother Don't be dragged down by my aunt, you'll admit it even if you scold me."

"You... have a thick skin." Su Jingmo laughed out of anger, and she still spoke, "It's the most capable Qianhu Yinru under my father's command. Do you have an impression of this?"

Su Xixian thought for a while, "I heard Dad mention it a few times, but I haven't seen it before. Who knows if you are tall, short, fat and thin, and have a good temper."

"What do you know, this marriage was told by my father and my mother. My mother was afraid that my father would be unreliable, so I asked someone to inquire about it. Yin Ru's father died early, and his mother didn't care much. There are three brothers and sisters in the family. He is the eldest and has a temper. A strong person is also motivated, otherwise he would not be able to achieve the position of Qianhu by himself. There is nothing to choose in terms of character and talent, and the only shortcoming is that he is seven years older than you and a little older."

Su Xinyi covered her face.

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

"What do you think? If you don't care about things at home, you can't be competent at first glance. With your mind, if this marriage can be achieved, you will be able to trap people within a few days of marriage." Su Jingmo said.

Su Xixian said with a straight face, "I will take you as a compliment."

Su Xinyi smiled, looked at Su Jingmo and asked: "Since this Yin Qianhu is good at everything, how come the marriage has not been settled yet? Speaking of which, he is also a young talent, so marriage should not be difficult."

Speaking of this, Su Jingmo had something to say, "I heard from my mother that although Yin Qianhu has good conditions, he can't stand a pair of younger siblings and a widowed mother. He doesn't get along with a wealthy family. He feels that he has nothing to rely on. The family background is shallow. If you look down, then Yin Qianhu himself is a young talent and he is not willing to give in, so the marriage has been delayed like this."

Su Xinyi was thoughtful, if this is the case, the marriage seems to be okay.

The widowed mother doesn't care about things, if she gets married, she can manage her own family, her husband is capable, and Su Xixian relies on the Duke of Qi's mansion, so she doesn't need to pay attention to Yin Ru's own backing. The Duke of Qi's mansion is the biggest backer.

Moreover, in Su Xixian's capacity, as long as Yin Ru's mother doesn't cause trouble, his younger brothers and sisters can only respect this sister-in-law from a noble family.This marriage suddenly seemed that Yin Ru was just a thousand householders, and Su Xixian was a little wronged, but it was indeed a good marriage after careful consideration.

Yin Ru is capable, and will definitely be able to go further in the future. He can be valued by his third uncle, and his character can be trusted. Marrying a husband with real power is better than marrying into those aristocratic families and being a bastard daughter-in-law, no matter if it is the second son who cannot be a prince. Or the youngest son and daughter-in-law are good.

Because if she married into a wealthy family, Su Xi's status as a concubine would be flawed. Facing a group of concubines, she would be like a dwarf, lacking confidence, and would not be valued by her mother-in-law.

Although the third wife will take care of Su Xixian and worry about her marriage, she will never record Su Xixian as her daughter-in-law.

Therefore, although Su Xixian is a girl from the Duke's Mansion, because she is a concubine, she doesn't even have to think about marrying the eldest son of a famous family. Anyone whose children and grandchildren in the family strive to make progress will not agree.

Just like Su Chaoyan is also a concubine, and Tu Sijing who married is also a concubine. Tu Sijing's biological mother is Mrs. Tu's dowry girl, and the relationship between master and servant is deep, and Aunt Zhang died of dystocia. Tu Sijing was brought up by his aunt. It was not recorded by Mrs. Tu.

Su Chaoyan has a very good reputation outside, and she was raised under the care of the second wife, the situation of both sides is almost equal, Tu Sijing is motivated, Su Chaoyan has a good reputation, this marriage is so easy to facilitate.

But Su Xixian is different. She has an uneasy aunt, which is a hindrance.Fortunately, because of the Weng family's marriage, the third wife stood up for her, which invisibly elevated Su Xixian. Su Xinyi felt that the benefits of this marriage with the Yin family would outweigh the disadvantages for Su Xixian.

After all, in her previous life, she was the one who had suffered a great loss from being in the wrong household.

Thinking of this, Su Xinyi looked at Su Xixian, only to see that Su Xixian frowned slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.

Su Jingmo didn't urge her, but turned to Su Xinyi and said, "Xiao Liu, what do you think?"

Su Xinyi watched Su Xixian look this way from the end of her eyes, she pretended not to see it, and sighed deliberately, "It's okay, Fifth Sister is outstanding and talented, marrying a martial artist is a bit wronged."

Su Jingmo's eyes were about to pop out, but when she saw Su Xinyi gesturing quietly to him, she immediately understood and nodded, "You're right, it's fine if Fifth Sister doesn't like it." In fact, it’s not that he’s the only one. Speaking of it, the only thing I feel sorry for is that Yin Ru’s mother is easy to get along with, and she can be the head of the family after marrying, I’m even envious.”

When it comes to the last sentence, Su Jingmo is sincere, her marriage is naturally good, Changnanhou's son, it sounds very beautiful, but Changnanhou's wife is just the right age, she will have to live under the hands of her mother-in-law for ten years when she gets married. Only a few years before the beginning of the day.

So sad.

Su Xixian knows that she has a strong temper, probably because of her concubine relationship. She likes to compare with Su Jingmo since she was a child, and she doesn't want to be looked down upon by others, so she has to do her best all the time.

If she thought about being married, she would have to look at her mother-in-law's face all the time and swallow her anger, she would feel bad.

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

"How about meeting someone first?" 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, Xiao Liu and I also think this marriage is good. The most important thing is that you have to see him."

Su Xinyi also felt that this was reliable, and nodded, "Isn't that the reason for meeting each other? Didn't Fourth Sister and Changnan Hou Shizi meet first before getting engaged?"

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

Su Jingmo rolled his eyes, "It's just a few steps, can you go by yourself?"

Su Xinyi chuckled, "Then Fourth Sister will go with Fifth Sister. Fifth Sister wants to make amends to Third Aunt. Third Aunt has worked so hard, and Fifth Sister is right. I'll go back first. I have something to do." Let's talk about it later."

It's fine to deal with the matter of the third room behind closed doors. If Su Xinyi followed, I'm afraid the third lady would be embarrassed, so she might not be willing to let Su Xixian lightly.

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 marry, but looking at the situation at home, it's impossible not to marry, so what kind of person is she looking for?
The family status should not be too high. It is best to have a simple family population. If you can enter the family, it is best to be the head of the family.

Thinking about it this way, Su Xinyi also envied Su Xixian.

Hey, it's too difficult.

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

Although she was named the Lord of Yong'an County by His Majesty, this County Lord also represents her strong force. What the big family expects most is family harmony and submissive daughter-in-law, and she is not good at that.

Anyway, just like in her previous life, these rich and powerful families don't have to think about it, and she doesn't want to marry such a complicated family again, it's not worth it to work hard and be wronged.

It is best if the husband and son-in-law are good-natured and motivated, the family background does not need to be too high, and the population is simple and easy to get along with.

Once again, I envy Su Xixian, what kind of fairy luck is she.

Su Xinyi went back to the study with a bitter face, and continued to study. Anyway, the marriage was arranged by her mother, so she just waited to go to the photoshop.

Thinking about it this way, I felt much more relaxed, so I picked up my books and continued my studies.

Su Xinyi's guess was right. The Fourth Madam had been worrying about her marriage for a long time. She searched around for a suitable family, and even asked her natal sister-in-law to help. It is not that Mrs. Gao sent a letter to my sister-in-law, asking her to go to the Gao Mansion.

The Fourth Madam was overjoyed, opened the storeroom to choose some gifts, got in the car and went straight to her mother's house.

Here, Su Xinyi has been reading for a long time, and he always feels as if he has forgotten something. When he was resting, he suddenly remembered what it was. It was about the caravan.

Su Xinyi immediately asked Lianqiao to call Zhanqiao, and asked him when she saw anyone, "Have you received the letter from Yulin Wei?"

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

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

Zhan Qiao said: "The letter from His Royal Highness is probably sent by the imperial post, so the speed is naturally faster. If the letter from Cao Qing and Master Biao cannot reach the post, it will be a few days later."

Su Xinyi thought about it too, "Even if it's a few days late, it should be here in a day or two. Pay attention."

Zhanqiao responded immediately, looked at the sixth girl and asked, "Miss, is Yulinwei all right?"

Su Xinyi nodded, "I don't know the details. Your Highness only said that everything is fine. We will only know when the letter arrives."

Zhanqiao was happy, "As long as people are fine."

Su Xinyi thought the same way, and said to Zhanqiao: "Did I ask you to send the bank notes sent to Tian Zao and Bao Datong after the next year?"

"Don't worry, girl, it has already been sent. Counting the days, their reply letter should arrive shortly after Master Biao and the others." Zhanqiao 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 extra military achievements and can only fill their stomachs just by relying on the little produce in the field. If they want to eat something good, they can only It cost money."

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

Some poor families have to rely on their children who serve as soldiers to subsidize their families.

Su Xinyi himself has suffered a lot, so he wants Bao Datong and Tian Zao to suffer less. It is not easy for these two children. Not everyone can have such perseverance to persist in avenging their parents at such a young age. and guts.

On the other side, the fourth lady was stunned when she heard what the sister-in-law said, "Sister-in-law, who are you talking about? The son of the Xiang family?"

Mrs. Gao smiled and nodded, "Mrs. Xiang sent me a message, saying that she met Xin Yi when she accompanied the third lady to visit Changnan Hou Shizi last time, and she liked it very much."

The fourth lady said: "Sister-in-law, you didn't even say that you want to see us Xin Yi."

"You are also confused. There is no news from the palace yet. Naturally, the Xiang family has to be vague. Mrs. Xiang likes Xin Yi very much. This is what you mean by asking you around the corner. What do you think?"

The fourth lady couldn't say anything for a moment, but said hesitantly: "The third lady in our mansion is from the Xiang family, but in fact, the Duke's mansion doesn't have much contact with the Xiang family. Basically, there is no other relationship. Sister-in-law, if you want to say that Mrs. Xiang has a crush on our Xin Yi, what...is she looking at?"

Mrs. Gao nodded when she heard her sister-in-law asking this question, looked at her and said with a smile: "I have thought about this question too, but it's really hard to say. Master Xiang was just transferred to the Minister of the Taipu Temple in Dali Temple before. It's too much to say. Pu Siqing is not as good as Dali Siqing, but he is only a third rank, which 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 good as that of Dali Temple, it has its own small treasury. The emperor has no control over the money of Taipu Temple. The money there is called 'horse price silver'. I heard that when the first emperor was there, Taipu Temple had tens of 10 taels of silver a year when it was the richest, which was worth one-tenth of the national treasury. "

The fourth lady really didn't know this, and she couldn't help being surprised when she heard the sister-in-law say this, "That's a big deal."

"That's right, I don't know how many people want to enter the Taipu Temple, but Mr. Xiang is able to go to the Taipu Temple, which shows that he is very pleased with the Emperor." Madam Gao said softly.

"That's why I can't figure out why I fell in love with our family Xin Yi." The fourth lady felt that the 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 Master Xiang holds an important position. I heard that his eldest son is also outstanding in writing. He has already won the Juren, and he will win again later." Naturally, the future of Jinshi is also very good."

The fourth lady couldn't stop nodding when she heard what the sister-in-law said, "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 background is clean, the population is simple, Master Xiang is in the heart of the emperor, this marriage is a good marriage." Mrs. Gao said with a smile, "However, our Xinyi is not bad, you can tell Mrs. Tai about it when you go back. Listen to Mrs. Tai's meaning. If the mansion is interested, we can meet in private, not in the name of seeing each other. Anyway, the two families are also in-laws, so it is nothing to spend time together. Now that spring is here, we are It’s a good time for outings.”

The Fourth Madam nodded slightly, "Anyway, it's just a look first. If Xin Yi likes Mr. Xiang's family, then talk about the marriage slowly. If you don't like it, that's all."

Mrs. Gao didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You, as a mother, you have to think carefully about marriage matters for your children. How can you let your children do it? What can Xin Yi know about marriage at this age."

The Fourth Madam shook her head, "Sister-in-law, our family Xin Yi has an idea in mind, anyway, she likes her marriage. Mrs. Tai said that if there is really no suitable one in the end, she would still like Xin Yi to recruit a son-in-law."

Mrs. Gao: ...

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

If it gets out, the people and wives in the capital may have something to talk about again. Isn't this spoiling the child a bit too much? It may not be a good thing.

The fourth lady could hear that her sister-in-law didn't understand, so she explained carefully: "Mrs. Tai said, Xin Yi is a strong kid, with a strong temper, and he has a lot of kung fu. I'm afraid this marriage will be too high or too low in the future. The family doesn't want to be wronged." Son, and Xin Yi is the only blood of our fourth master, so recruiting a son-in-law can be regarded as leaving a line of incense for fourth master."

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

"I mentioned it as a joke with her, and I don't know if the child listened to it or not." The Fourth Madam said with some uncertainty.

Mrs. Gao thought about it carefully, and then she thought about opening her mouth, "It would be great if Xin Yi is willing. In the future, you will have support, and the branch of Sifang will not lose its blood. But ah, it is not easy to recruit a son-in-law. , but any promising man who wants to be a door-to-door son-in-law is hard to find."

The fourth lady nodded, "That's not it, so the family didn't dare to leak the news. I told my sister-in-law that you go and don't spread it. If Xin Yi can find a marriage that suits her, I'm still willing to marry her happily." .”

Mrs. Gao naturally knew the seriousness, "If this is the case, how will the Xiang family respond?"

"I'll talk to my sister-in-law after I go back and discuss with Mrs. Tai." The fourth lady didn't dare to make up her mind by herself, so she still wanted to talk to Mrs. Tai and listen to what Mrs. Tai had to say.

The fourth lady came out of Gao's house, sat in the carriage returning home, thought over and over again what the sister-in-law said, and felt that what the sister-in-law said made some sense, the Xiang family is indeed a good family, although it is not a noble family, but Xinyi's 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 to mention this matter. It can be seen that she really likes Xin Yi of their family. If the marriage is really done, it will be easier for her mother-in-law to like her than not to like her in the future.

After the fourth lady returned to the mansion, she went straight to Mrs. Tai, but she didn't know that Mrs. Tai happened to have guests here, so she couldn't rush in, so she went to the side hall to wait.

Yao Huang brought tea, and the Fourth Madam stopped her and asked, "Who is Tai Madam here?"

Yao Huang smiled and said, "Mrs. Jiang is here to visit."

"Which Mrs. Jiang?" The fourth lady asked, there are quite a few people with the surname Jiang in the capital.

"It's Jiang Shangshu's wife."

The fourth lady was taken aback, "Our family doesn't have much contact with the Jiang family, why did Mrs. Jiang come to visit suddenly?"

Yao Huang shook his head, "Your servant doesn't know now."

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 make out what was said, but the laughter continued, showing that the discussion was pleasant.

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

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Mrs. Tai smiling all over her face. She stepped forward to pay her respects and asked with a smile, "Mother, what are you so happy about?"

Mrs. Tai looked at Mrs. Fourth and said, "It's a coincidence that you came. This matter has something to do with your fourth wife. Sit down and talk about it."

The fourth lady was a little surprised, it has something to do with them, what's the relationship?
