Hexi

Chapter 384 Thanks to you
Hearing her talk like beans in a bamboo tube, Han Mo became curious about the Huang family's affairs from the bottom of his heart: "Aren't you afraid that she will punish you if you arrange your new wife like this?"

"Don't be afraid," Aunt Cui said, "This new lady is no longer here!"

Now Han Mo was stunned, and Su Wei was also stunned.

Of course Huang's stepmother Su Wei knew about it, and she saw it every time she came to Huang's house!In my impression, Mrs. Huang was taciturn and she was not very old. When did she die?
On the other side, Han Mo first asked, "Why haven't I heard that the Huang family has had funeral affairs in recent years?"

"My lord, I don't know how many years ago the new lady passed away, at least fifteen or sixteen years ago. Moreover, this lady passed away within a year after getting married, so people outside heard about her There are not many. The current wife was remarried later. She is already the third."

Su Luo was stunned.Fifteen or sixteen years ago, Mrs. Huang was still working as a young lady in the Huang family. At that time, she was only thirteen or fourteen years old. Moreover, this lady was of bad character, and she had been in office for less than a year. It seems that Mrs. Huang directly put She was directly erased from the past family members.

She also knew her younger sister, Su Luo, who was seven or eight years younger than Huang Shi. She married a seventh-rank official two years ago, and she was also in the capital. She will still say hello without losing the ladylike etiquette. It turns out that she was not born to the current Mrs. Huang.

"Then which lady made the decision for your aunt's marriage?"

Aunt Cui probably felt that she had said enough and hesitated.

Han Mo took out two banknotes again, and put on a sincere face: "To be honest, my brother contracted a serious illness last year, and has been lying in bed for more than half a year. Because I like your aunt, I have also suffered from dementia for so many years. Never married.

"If I didn't feel really distressed, I wouldn't come here to do such absurd things to make people laugh. Just for the sake of my brother's lover, please tell me more. Thank you very much."

Aunt Cui took the bank note and sighed: "Actually, I don't know if you are real or not, but our aunt really paid by mistake. Seeing your clear eyes, you don't look like that treacherous villain, so I have the right to take it for you." Our aunt fights the injustice and says a few more words. But since you are willing to give up the money, I beg you not to talk about it, so as not to spread to the ears of the Su family and make our aunt look bad."

"Don't worry, I won't spread it to the outside world. Besides, these words will not damage your aunt's reputation. Even if outsiders know about it, don't they feel sorry for your aunt?"

Aunt Cui was persuaded, and continued: "This marriage was decided by my wife. In fact, many matchmakers came to the door at that time, and the Su family was just one of them.

"Our current wife is not like the previous one. She is a meek person, and she does not try to be aggressive in everything. In addition, she gave birth to a boy in her first child, and finally continued the incense for our master. She is also of high status, so she is even more non-competitive.

"At that time, my wife took all these matchmaking posts for the master to decide. Originally, marriage matters had to be obeyed by the parents. There was nothing to say about it. The words in the play, the aunt sighed with the wife, saying that she is a person of poor fortune, and it is better to be a leisurely young mistress than to marry into a high family and be the mistress that everyone is staring at.

"When the wife heard this, she asked her if she had any ideas about the marriage—I was standing by the side at the time, so I knew it. My aunt was too embarrassed to say it directly, but when she asked more closely, she said she didn't want to There are rules for entering a powerful family, and people like the Su family are fine.

"The madam turned around and told the master, it happened that at that time the elder of the Su family had solved major cases in a row, was rewarded by the emperor, and then the news came that he was promoted to the prefect of Quanzhou.

"The master thinks that although the second master of the Su family is not the eldest son, he cannot inherit the family business, but the Su family has a good family style, and the inner house is also harmonious. There is nothing to say about the friendship between brothers, and the eldest master of the Su family will definitely have many opportunities for promotion in the future. I had to help the second room, so I agreed to the Su family's marriage proposal without saying a word."

After all, he took money to do things, and the ins and outs were all laid out clearly.

Su Wei picked out the most important piece of information from it, that it was Huang's willingness to marry Su Zan!No, this is more than just "willing", it is directly voluntary!

Well, since this marriage was voluntary, why would she behave like that after getting married?

Isn't this a contradiction?

Han Mo seemed to be the roundworm in Su Yu's stomach, so he asked again: "So your aunt is also satisfied with Master Su Er. Then why did you say that she was married and had a bad life? Could it be that before the marriage happened again? What happened?"

"What happened? After the marriage was agreed, we got married in less than half a year. It has been calm and peaceful, and the two families are very harmonious, and there is not even a little extra talk. The aunt is not doing well, so it is not that the uncle is heartless and ungrateful." With such a lady of great family as his wife, he still doesn't know how to respect it."

Aunt Cui seemed really angry, so she immediately scolded her.

Su Luo frowned.Sure enough, just like her before, the world's disdain for their marriage was all directed at Su Yan.

"Do you have anything else to ask?"

Aunt Cui saw that Han Mo didn't speak, so she took the initiative to ask.

Han Mo said, "Do you have anything else to say?"

"No more. About our aunt's marriage, that's all, nothing else."

Aunt Cui asked curiously, "What's your surname, sir? Where do you live? What does your family do for a living? Is there someone who is an official in the court?"

She looked like she was going to ask about her family background and make a good comparison with the Su family, and then sighed: "It's a pity, if our aunt hadn't been young and picked the wrong family, it might be better to change to someone else."

Han Mo avoided the seriousness and said lightly: "Marriage is destined, these things are not good." Seeing that she was about to open his mouth curiously, he preemptively said: "By the way, why did the wife in front of you pass away so soon?"

"There was an accident. It rained heavily one night. She happened to go back to the room with a seven-month-old belly. She slipped and fell, and she was gone."

Hearing this, Su Luo frowned suddenly.So much so that they talked about something later, but she didn't listen to it anymore.

"Thank you!"

Han Mo watched Aunt Cui enter the mansion, and when he turned back, he saw Su Wei crossing his arms and thinking deeply. He stretched out his hands and waved them in front of her eyes: "What are you thinking about?"

Su Luo looked at him: "Have you asked clearly?"

"Didn't you hear it all?" Han Mo compared where she was standing with them before, "So close."

Su Luo put down her hand: "Sure enough, it's Donglin Weizhen Fushi, who asked me everything I wanted to know."

Han Mo's face was full of pride: "The Fushi of Donglin Weizhen is not a fairy, he knows everything. I just have a more careful mind. I asked you where I asked earlier. I can see your expression through this gap and guess what your question is. of."

Su Luo sincerely admired: "Thanks for having you."

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and thought about it, then straightened up and said, "I also promised my second uncle to visit Aunt Hu, so I'll go back home first."

Han Mo was taken aback: "Hey! I helped you, but you don't want to treat me to dinner before going back?"

"It's too late! Another day!"

Su Wei waved her hand back and pulled Aji into the carriage.
