The Pretty Eldest Daughter of a Scholar's Family

Chapter 421 Preparations and Rituals ([-])
Ning Shi really wanted to tell Su Yunduo her guess, but thinking of what Old Madam Lu said, Ning Shi hesitated again.

Today, when Mrs. Lu left Ning's talk, she mainly talked about Su Yunduo and Yanli. Old lady Lu was so anxious to value Su Yunduo's Jili, Ning was very happy.

Mrs. Lu instructed the Ning family on how to handle Su Yunduo's wedding ceremony, who to ask for help from the clan, and who to invite to be the guest of honor, almost every detail was clear.

The Ning family was also mentioned by the Shi family a few days ago, and the Shi family also promised to help the Ning family organize Su Yunduo's wedding ceremony. It's about Erfang's face, so the clan needs to help more.

After Mrs. Lu mentioned Ning Shi, she talked with Ning Shi about her concerns about Su Yunduo's marriage.

As soon as the girl reaches Jiji, she is considered an adult, and the next step is to get engaged. Even if she is reluctant to part with the girl, she can stay at home for a year or two at most, which is exactly the time to prepare for the marriage.

"I know that you are reluctant to part with Sister Duo as parents, but you should be engaged when you reach the end of the marriage. Even if the dowry is prepared at home, the preparations before marriage will take a year and a half. I will let Chenghao's wife take you more Go to a few banquets, visit a few families, there are so many children from aristocratic families in Beijing, there will always be a child suitable for our sister Duo."

Although the old lady Lu only said a few words about Su Yunduo's marriage, the meaning revealed in her words was very obvious, that is, she hoped to find Su Yunduo a family member with a good family background in the capital.

Ning didn't dare to say much, but just nodded repeatedly.

No matter how dull Ning Shi is, she still understands the purpose of Mrs. Lu always asking Shi Shi to take her to dinner parties these days.

Mrs. Lu asked some more about Liu Yushu's situation. Ning naturally knew Su Chengzhi's plan, but she didn't dare to leak a word. She only said that when her family was in Geshan Village, she had been helped by Liu Donglin and Wei's, and now she accepted Liu Yushu. The purpose of coming to the capital to study is to repay the kindness of the Liu family.

The old lady Lu nodded straight after hearing this: "If you know your kindness, take it as a graphic report, and you ask Huayang Street to take care of those little talents, and you must not ignore it."

What else could Ning say, she just nodded her head.

Now that Mrs. Lu has stated that she wants to find a son of a family for Su Yunduo in the capital, the Ning family can no longer reveal Su Chengzhi's desire to make Su Yunduo and Liu Yushu a pair. What I mean is to explain clearly to Su Chengzhi.

The Ning family has always thought that Liu Yushu is a good child. If they were still in Geshan Village, they might not look up to Su Yunduo, but now that Su Yunduo is the second daughter of the Su family in the capital, they still have to be married, like Liu Yushu Such a poor family boy is only a scholar, so he must not be able to win the eyes of Mrs. Lu.

Su Chengzhi took Liu Yushu to study in the capital, although he had a little bit of intention to make Liu Yushu and Su Yunduo a pair, but he only got through with Ning Shi.

Even the Liu family only said that because Su Chengzhi could bring a place to study in the Imperial College, and Su Chengzhi was optimistic about Liu Yushu, and was grateful for the support of the Liu family when his family was in Geshan Village, so he proposed to let Liu Yushu come to study in the capital.

That being the case, I still persuade Su Chengzhi to stop thinking about it. Although the parents ordered the matchmaker to say, but if Mrs. Lu can find a better husband-in-law for Su Yunduo, Ning will naturally wish for it.

Regarding Su Yunduo's marriage, naturally, he had to discuss it with Su Chengzhi before making a decision. As for who would be the official guest of Jiji, it had to be decided earlier, so that he could greet people in advance and make a post.

Ning simply didn't tell Su Yunduo the feelings that Old Madam Lu gave her, but only expressed some of her own experience: "The Da Furen once reminded me that my daughter's family and Ji Li Zhengbin are both virtuous and dignified. Shangjia, Princess Dachang and Mrs. Zhen Guogong are among the most virtuous and noble people in the capital. Whoever invites you to be your official guest is a high praise.

Mother is just worried about one thing. No matter which one of them is invited to be your guest of honor, I'm afraid it will make people think we are too frivolous. Although you are a girl from the Su family, after all, your father just returned home Dr. Guozijian. "

Su Yunduo couldn't help but frowned after hearing this, wondering if Mrs. Ning said such things in front of Mrs. Lu.

But judging by Ning's appearance, he probably didn't say anything.

If she really said such things in front of Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu would probably mention something to her, and she would have no chance to say such things in front of herself.

Although the old lady Lu became Su Ling'an's successor in the end, she couldn't change the fact that she came from a noble family. In her bones, the old lady Lu always behaved like a noble daughter of an aristocratic family.

Given Ning's background, what she said was not wrong.

It's just that she forgot that she is now the second wife of the Su family. Although Su Chengzhi's current official position is indeed only a doctor of the Imperial Academy, Ning can't always position herself as the wife of a doctor of the Imperial Academy.

Today's Su Chengzhi is first of all the master of the second wife of the Su family, the oldest scholarly family in the capital, so Ning family has to remember that he is the wife of this family.

Did not hear Su Yunduo's voice, Ning raised her head to look at Su Yunduo in doubt, seeing Su Yunduo's brows were tightly frowned, otherwise her heart tightened, and she asked a little uneasy: "What's wrong, but what mother said is wrong?"

"Mother, if daddy is only a doctor of the Imperial College, what you said is absolutely right. But, mom, don't forget that daddy is still the master of the second wife of the Su family. Although there are not many people in the Su family, there are not many officials. It's not high, and the honor in the capital is no lower than that of ordinary aristocratic families. I will discuss with grandma later on who the main guest will invite, and I don't need to worry about it." Su Yunduo pursed her lips, looked at Ning seriously and said.

As Su Yunduo came slowly, Ning's face turned slightly pale.

No wonder the old lady looked at her a little unkindly just now, and there was always a sense of hatred in her expression, which should be blaming her for not recognizing her new identity so far.

No wonder the old lady suddenly asked about Liu Yushu, the old lady must have seen Su Chengzhi's thoughts.

Regardless of whether Mrs. Lu or Mrs. Shi have mentioned her many times, even if no one in the Su family is an official, the girls in the clan are inferior to any girl from a noble family.

This is obviously to remind her to remember that Su Yunduo is a girl of the Su family, even if she marries the grandson of the emperor, it is okay, but their husband and wife have always felt inferior because Su Yunduo was born and raised in the countryside, and their eyes are always looking for a son-in-law. It's looking at poor scholars.

Liu Yushu is Su Chengzhi's proud disciple, and he knows the basics, so he naturally became the son-in-law's first choice.

Looking back now, Liu Yushu is not bad, but he is still only a young scholar. If Su Yunduo is really married to him, and when he has a future, Su Yunduo may have to suffer for more than ten years.

Although Su Yunduo is capable and not afraid of suffering, but it can let her live a prosperous and peaceful life, why must she suffer?
Thinking about it this way, Ning felt that the whole thing was done wrong!
