Chapter 699 Three Mansions

After attending the banquet, Su Rui and his party went straight back to the princess mansion. Su Chenrui and Meng Mingxu sent Su Rui to the main courtyard. Just as they were about to say goodbye and go back to the courtyard, Su Rui stopped her.

"Chen Rui, you can leave later."

Su Chenrui, "..."

Seeing this, Meng Mingxu said, "Sister Rui, then I'll go back first..."

Su Rui nodded, "Well, let's go."

"Sister, what do you want to tell me?"

Su Chenrui thought to himself that he didn't cause any trouble today, ah, no, he didn't usually cause any trouble either...
Su Rui smiled and motioned him to sit down, and then said, "It's not a bad thing."

"Ming Xu is about to get engaged, do you know that?"

"know."

Su Chenrui nodded, he really didn't know at first, but after the Pei family brothers found Ming Xu that day, Ming Xu told him that he might be engaged to Miss Pei's family, at that time he even congratulated Meng Mingxu for coming .

Su Rui took the milk brought by the girl, took a sip before continuing, "Mingxu is about to get engaged, what about you? Don't you worry? You and Mingxu are within a few months."

"And Qiao'er is going to get married this year. You two are twins. It doesn't matter if you get married a few years later as a man..."

Su Chenrui looked surprised, "Sister, what do you mean?"

After Su Rui finished drinking the milk, she handed the bowl to the girl, wiped the corners of her mouth before continuing, "Elder Sister showed you a girl at today's poetry banquet."

"That Miss He?"

Su Chenrui is not stupid, he instantly remembered how special the eldest sister and the second princess were to Miss He at Linzhangyuan's house today...

Su Rui nodded slightly, "Well, it's her, her background and reputation are not very good, but the elder sister is looking for her, you saw it today, she does things generously, and she doesn't panic at all when things happen , Literary talent is not a problem..."

"You are different from Mingxu. Mingxu has his elder brother to worry about everything. He just needs to marry someone he likes and live their happy life. But you are different. You are the eldest son of our family. She doesn't need to be so beautiful, and she doesn't need to have such a good background, but she must have the ability to support a family and take good care of her siblings..."

Su Chenrui sat on the chair and listened to the elder sister's endless praise of He Yushu. Su Chenrui, who had no idea at first, gave him the illusion that if he missed it, he might not meet him in the future...
Seeing that Su Chenrui remained silent, Su Rui thought for a while and said, "Although the eldest sister and your second sister fell in love with this girl, if you don't, the eldest sister will not force you."

Su Chenrui said at this time, "Eldest sister, I understand everything you said. As the eldest son of our family, I really should take on the responsibility of the eldest son..."

"As for the engagement, Chen Rui listens to the eldest sister..."

Su Chenrui thought to himself, anyway, sooner or later, he would have to get engaged, and he would definitely not be wrong to make an appointment with his eldest sister. After all, he trusted her elder sister's vision. As for feelings?He believes that as long as the other party is a good person, he will definitely be with the other party until they grow old and stay together for a lifetime.

Su Rui nodded slightly, thought for a while and said, "But there's something Elder Sister also wants to tell you."

Su Chenrui was puzzled, "What's the matter?"

Su Rui looked at Xiaotao, "Xiaotao, show the young master what you got from the investigation."

Xiaotao, "Yes."

Su Chenrui took the brochure Xiaotao handed to him suspiciously, while reading it, he heard Su Rui say from the side, "It's said that the girl is celibate, but people's fate is determined by the heavens, how could it be that she wants her parents to die?" I've also inquired about the two so-called fiancés. The one who was thrown off the horse was purely caused by himself and others, and was framed. As for the one with a fever, it was also because of his own poor health. , and if you insist on going to appreciate the plum grove when it’s raining heavily, isn’t that just looking for something for yourself, because you think you’ve lived too long?”

"What does it have to do with Miss Su? I think it's just an excuse they made up for themselves..."

The investigation was very careful, and he recorded all the big and small things that happened to He Yushu from birth to Jiji, but even if it was 15 years of records, there were not many, so Su Chenrui finished reading it quickly, he put down the booklet, and looked at Su Rui .

"Sister, don't we know who we were before? How could I despise other girls' backgrounds?"

Seeing that Su Chenrui really didn't force her, Su Rui laughed, "Okay, since you didn't object, then I'll let your eldest brother-in-law ask the woman's opinion..."

Su Chenrui stood up, "Well, yes, then I'll go back to study first? Both Mingxu and I plan to go back to take the county exam next spring..."

Su Rui was stunned for a moment, "Are you going to take the imperial examination next year?"

Su Chenrui smiled, "Eldest sister, we just want to be admitted as a scholar first, after all, if we want to enter the Imperial College, we can't get in unless we are a scholar..."

After a pause, he continued, "As for Juren, we haven't even thought about it yet. We just want to be admitted to the Imperial Academy and study for a few more years, so we can settle down and talk about it."

Su Rui said "Oh", "Okay, as long as you have a plan, Chen Nan is still young anyway..."

She knew that Meng Tao and Meng Zhongshan made small plans for Su Chenrui and Meng Mingxu and made various personal plans. Because of their concern, Su Rui never paid attention to their studies since she came to Yuncheng. Of course, she doesn't plan to Never mind, what she should worry about in the future is their engagement, dowry, and other trivial matters...
Within a few days of waiting for Lin Zhangyuan's family to reply, Steward Wang also came to the main courtyard with the house deed.

"Ma'am, this is the deed of the house."

Su Rui flipped through the three deeds, not to mention the big courtyards with three entrances, and they were all in the south of the city. After a closer look, they were all in the same alley. She couldn't help but be surprised.

"Are there so many houses in the south of the city now? Do these three courtyards belong to the same family?"

Butler Wang explained, "It's not from one family, but all three are relatives..."

Su Rui nodded, "Then the three companies sold it together? Why would you want to sell such a good location?"

Butler Wang thought for a while and saw that Xiaotao was the only one in the hall, so he whispered, "My little man, after some inquiries, it seems that these three families are all relatives of Lord Sun's family, Minister of Rites. It is said that it is because Liu Guifei was punished by His Majesty, and Lord Sun Concubine Liu Gui, seems to have been severely punished by His Majesty recently, relatives were afraid, so they began to secretly sell their properties and prepare to flee to the clan..."

Su Rui raised her eyebrows, "Secretly?"

Steward Wang nodded, "Well, Mr. Sun has been locked up in the palace for several days, and no news has been sent back to the mansion, so..."
