No. 1 Girl in the Imperial City

Chapter 387 Su Rui's Thoughts

The sudden bloody incident really made people speechless, Luo Junyao could only be thankful that the Luo family did not intend to discuss marriage with the Liu family.

It's not that the Luo family dislikes the fact that the eldest daughter of the Liu family is not a real daughter, it's that just thinking about the latter matters gives me a headache.My second brother's character doesn't seem like a person who can deal with these situations patiently.

These days, as long as the family is not pursuing marriage, the criteria for choosing a marriage between a man and a woman are actually very simple.The girl and son are good-looking, healthy, have no problem with character and character, and have a simple and harmonious family. Who would like to have scheming in their in-laws' house every day?

"What is the Liu family going to do?" Luo Junyao asked curiously.

Song Xie sighed and said, "It's only been two days, how do you know what the Liu family is going to do? No matter what, people always have to pick it up. I heard that the Liu family has sent someone to pick up that girl. The distance between the nurse's sister-in-law's Shangyong is about 200 miles away. If you go with a carriage, it will take six or seven days to go back and forth, right? If the Liu family go on horseback, they can come back in two or three days."

"Who will the Liu family send to pick them up?" Luo Junyao asked.

Song Jue said: "Mrs. Liu fainted from the anger on the spot. The Liu family is in a mess right now. I heard that the eldest son of the Liu family brought a steward and a few servants there."

The eldest son of the Liu family is only two years older than the girl of the Liu family and less than three years old, and he has just reached the crown.But in this era, 20 years old is already an adult, so it is appropriate to let him do this.

Song Jue sighed and said, "That girl is also pitiful, I hope she will be fine in the future."

Su Rui said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult."

"How to say?" Song Jue and Luo Jun shook their heads and looked at Su Rui.

Su Rui said: "The nanny from the Liu family is still fine and hasn't been dealt with yet."

Luo Jun shook his head: "I guess you want to wait until the girl comes back to deal with it?"

Su Rui shook her head and said: "Obviously, the Liu family has no intention of sending Miss Liu away. It's not difficult to understand. After all, the relationship that has been raised for more than ten years is not fake. But precisely because of this, it should be before the girl comes back. Dispose of that nanny. Even if she is sent far away, it is better to keep her from appearing in Shangyong for the rest of her life. After all, this matter is not Miss Liu's fault in the final analysis. What did she know when she was an infant? The Liu family disposed of the nanny, and took the girl back to take good care of her. Even if the two girls have some conflicts, after all, they are already sixteen or seventeen years old, and they should talk to each other soon, and they don't have much time to get along .”

Su Rui frowned and said, "What does the Liu family mean by keeping someone here? If the girl came back and insisted on severely punishing the nanny, would others say she was cruel? Would Miss Liu feel resentful towards her? Then The nanny has been in the mansion for decades, and she has no relatives or old friends? Will these people have problems with the girl and make her trip up? If Miss Liu begs her, should she respond? Also, it is also important for the girl to be raised in the country. I don’t know what kind of temper it is, it’s fine if you’re tough, but if you’re weak…”

Luo Junyao thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Sister Su is right, it is really inappropriate to leave it to two young girls to deal with matters that should be dealt with by adults."

Song Xi said: "Don't forget, this matter has already exploded. Since the Liu family wants to keep Miss Liu, they can't let her have a biological mother who committed a crime. What else can the Liu family do with the nanny? Send it to the official? Kill it? Is it still sold? Miss Liu's face is not good-looking. It's hard to say what the real girl looks like. Although Liu Shangshu is listed in the Minister of the Ministry of Industry, he used to have some friendship with King Ning. Although he was not involved this time, but in the future I'm afraid that's the case. The rest of the Liu family are not promising, and the sons are either mediocre or young. I heard that Princess Changzhao doesn't like their family very much. To maintain the status of the Liu family in Shangyong, I'm afraid they can only rely on marriage gone."

Speaking of this, Song Juan smiled, "I guess, the nanny was beaten up in the end, and she was fined to go to the Zhuangzi outside the city or to see the Zhuangzi in the Liu family's property outside the city. But don't forget, that nanny is not a People, there are still many relatives in the whole family."

Luo Junyao remembered what Princess Changzhao had mentioned and the appearance of Mrs. Liu and Liu Ruxia in Princess Changzhao's mansion that day, and had to admit that what Song Jun said made sense.

"Actually, the Shangshu is considered the most powerful official in the court, right? The Liu family is not good enough?" Although there is always a saying that the Ministry of Industry is the last among the six departments, it refers to the influence on the situation in the court and the noble status. In fact, The Ministry of Industry is the most lucrative yamen among the six ministries, so the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry is still very enviable.

Su Rui laughed and said: "Power is also like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. The Liu family is not welcomed by Princess Changzhao, and the regent probably doesn't like their family very much. Now Liu Shangshu is naturally a first- and second-rate family in Shangyong among them. Once Liu Shangshu retires, the Liu family will not even have a single person who is an official in the court, and it will be completely useless." Liu Shangshu's retirement may not necessarily mean that he has reached the age to become an official, but it may also be that he was directly raped by someone.

"Is this all the idea of ​​the man from the Liu family? What does Mrs. Liu say?" Men naturally value benefits more. A daughter who is both talented and beautiful and can be married off immediately, and a daughter who was raised in the country since she was a child and doesn't know what it looks like Daughter, naturally choose the former.

But Mrs. Liu may not think so.

Su Rui sighed: "Mrs. Liu is sick, she's still lying in bed and can't get up."

Luo Junyao could only sigh, "Forget it, it's still the Liu family's business, we are outsiders and we can only watch."

"Can't you just watch?" Su Rui smiled and said, "Who dares to go to Liu's house these two days? I'm afraid I'll run into bad luck. But you're not in the city, Ah Ning took Princess Huaiyang and Huihui everywhere After inquiring about news indiscriminately, she stayed at home obediently after being cleaned up by Princess Changling."

Luo Jun shook his smile and said, "Ah Ning has never been idle."

After chatting about gossip, the three started discussing business matters.

Although Song Yuzhi was not in Anlan Academy, he still gave great support to Luo Junyao's ambitious plans.

The three girls sat in the study and discussed the plan that Luo Junyao had written. Luo Junyao carefully wrote down any better ideas.

There was also the weaving workshop they were about to open. After this period of time, all the looms Luo Junyao needed had been built.The weaving workshop has also been tidied up, and it is not far from the place where the homeless women are taken in. It can start work after the Chinese New Year.

These things were all arranged by Song Ju and Luo Niangzi. Liang Shufeng had a good relationship with Song Ju, and would come to help from time to time.

These things are very cumbersome and complicated in the first place, if it is for an ordinary woman in a boudoir, I am afraid that I don't know where to start first.Song Jue was not too fast or too slow, and he acted in an orderly manner, obviously quite talented in this regard.

Luo Junyao felt that if Song Jun hadn't been born in this era, he might have become a very successful businessman.

When the girl came with tea and fresh fruit, Song Xuan was still at his desk figuring something out, without even raising his head.

Luo Junyao and Su Rui didn't bother her, they simply asked someone to send the refreshments to the small hall next to them, they got up and went there to rest, leaving the place for Song Yu to use.

"Just now I saw that Sister Su seems to be distracted, what's the matter?" When they were discussing the affairs of Anlan Academy, Su Rui suddenly lost her mind several times, not only Luo Junyao noticed it, but Song Juan naturally also noticed it.

Su Rui was startled, the hand holding the teacup paused for a moment and did not speak.

Luo Junyao smiled slightly: "Is it not convenient to tell us?"

Su Rui shook her head and said, "No, I promised Mr. Zhang to become a teacher at Anlan Academy this year."

Luo Jun shook his eyebrows and his heart skipped a beat, "Sister Su's plan has changed now?"

Su Rui saw that Luo Junyao did not speak, her expression was obviously a little conflicted, as if she was considering whether to speak or not.

How could Luo Junyao not know why she was in trouble?
He secretly said in his heart: Big brother is quite fast in handling things, and now it seems that Su Rui is not without heartbeat.

So she directly pointed it out, "It's... because of my elder brother?"

Surprised, Su Rui stared blankly at Luo Junyao, her face couldn't help showing a blush.

"Shake, you..."

Luo Jun smiled and said: "Don't be embarrassed, don't people say that a family of good girls is asking for help? My elder brother loves Sister Su, which means he has good eyesight."

"You already knew?" Su Rui said, suddenly remembered that Luo Junyao and his grandfather had asked her what she thought of the eldest son of the Luo family, how could they not understand the mystery?
For a moment, her beautiful cheeks became more and more red.

Luo Jun shook his face and said: "Sister Su, no matter what decision you make, we will always be good friends. In matters of marriage and relationship, you still have to listen to your heart."

Su Rui looked moved, nodded and said softly: "I know, thank you for shaking."

Luo Junyao asked curiously: "Since Sister Su hesitated, does that mean you still don't hate my elder brother? Does it mean that I might call you sister-in-law?"

Su Rui was a little helpless, and after a moment of silence, she said in a low voice: "I am really tempted by what Mr. Luo said to me. But... I also faintly feel that if I agree to him because of this, I will really feel sorry for him."

"What did my brother tell you?"

Su Rui told Luo Junyao the conversation between her and Luo Jinyan in detail.

Luo Jinyan was obviously very sincere, he said that Su Rui would go to the south with him, and he would not interfere in whatever he wanted.If after a few years they are still not sure that they want to spend the rest of their lives together, he will also be responsible for resolving their marriage on the basis of not damaging Su Rui's reputation.

Su Rui had to admit that she was very moved when she heard Luo Jinyan's words.

Just the fact that she can leave Shangyong with Luo Jinyan, and that Luo Jinyan doesn't interfere with her affairs is enough to make her heart move.This is the freedom that Su Rui could not get if she married any powerful family in Shangyong.

Staying away from Shangyong means that there will be a lot less constraints. Su Rui is so excited.

However, in the final analysis of such a marriage, Luo Jinyan paid for it alone, and she almost enjoyed it.

In fact, she didn't know Luo Jinyan very well, it was really hard for Su Rui to let a strange man pay her so much.

Although she is not self-important, she will not belittle herself either, saying that she doesn't understand why Luo Jinyan is like this is pretending to be stupid.

Because of this, Su Rui didn't dare to agree easily.

Luo Junyao sighed, and said: "It seems that my eldest brother still lacks some charm, not enough to make sister Su's heart beat."

Su Rui helplessly looked at the girl sitting across from her, "Master Luo is both civil and military. He is only in his 20s and he is about to become an official in the frontier..."

"But sister Su doesn't like it."

Su Rui smiled bitterly. Women like them don't really care much about whether they like it or not, because you can't be sure that the person you like will definitely become your partner.

Just like her, if Xiao Hong hadn't done those things, no matter whether she liked Xiao Hong or not, this marriage would not be dissolved.

Does she like Xiao Hong?Of course I don't like it.

So Su Rui never thought of liking a certain man. Her engagement has already been made, so what's the use of liking him?
But now she suddenly knows that there is such an excellent man who likes her, and is even willing to do so many things for herself. There are joys and shyness in her heart, but more fear.

And, the fear of not being able to reciprocate.

If she agreed to Luo Jinyan's marriage, and finally got everything she wanted, Luo Jinyan would have nothing...

Luo Jun shook his chin and said: "Sometimes feelings are a gamble. If you decide to leave, you are willing to admit defeat. I believe my elder brother still has the courage to bear the failure, right?"

Su Rui was helpless, raised her hand and rubbed her brows and said, "How can you do that?"

Luo Jun shook his hands and said, "Why not? He likes you, but you still don't like him. You are free, and even if you solve the marriage without damaging your reputation in the future, it will take a few years for you to get married. Is it the price? In addition, although you have gained freedom, you may not achieve anything in the end, and it may not be smoother than it is now. He got the opportunity to get along with you, but the price is that the result may not be as he wished, and it has been delayed for a long time. years. It's fair."

"Besides, Sister Su, you don't plan to never marry for life. If you hesitate, it means that you can't accept my elder brother at all, right? Then you can still live like ordinary people for the rest of your life." Luo Jun said: "My father and mother, Your father and mother, and many others, didn’t they all live like this? The worst is to return to most marriages, right? Even in this world, there aren’t any couples who reconcile because of emotional discord, right? "

Of course, it's also possible that the eldest son of the Luo family didn't get any emotional response and then turned black.

Luo Junyao's heart trembled: Her elder brother won't be blackened casually.The eldest brother is too scary, and it will be even more terrifying if he is blackened.

Su Rui hesitated so much because he was worried that he would not be able to give Luo Jinyan an equal return.If she didn't know Luo Jinyan's feelings, the simple transaction between the two would be much easier.

But what Luo Jin said was based on his liking for Su Rui.Otherwise, what kind of wife does Mr. Luo want?Why bother to choose a woman who has no feelings for him and does not intend to be a good wife and mother?

In this way, Su Rui became even more entangled.

Not everyone can enjoy the contributions of others with peace of mind.
