Marrying into a poor family

Chapter 443

"It's obvious that the Du family took action." Yao Xiang said lightly. It's not like she cared much about this kind of thing.

If she didn't care about Lu Jiu, she might not even bother to pay attention.

The Du family first snatched the child away, but the child was snatched back on the same day. On the surface, the child was still Yaoxiang's adopted son, so it was not easy for the Du family to snatch him openly.

The Empress Dowager is now busy fighting with the Emperor and has no time to care about these things. The things happening in the palace are already making the Empress Dowager extremely upset.

Seeing Qin Sui's worry, Yao Xiang comforted her instead, saying that she could solve the Du family's problem, but the Lu family still needed Qin Sui's help to put in a few good words.

Qin Sui agreed and went to the Lu family after leaving.

"Shan'er is here. Come and help your godmother to take a look at the new jewelry and fabrics."

Mrs. Lu happily invited Qin Sui to see the betrothal gifts.

Qin Sui looked at the betrothal gift and found it to be more attentive than before, so she asked the reason.

"I had never met Yao Xiang before, so I was unsure. But after meeting her, I felt more confident. As long as she really wants to live with your ninth brother, I will welcome her from the bottom of my heart."

As he spoke, he stroked a jade pendant and sighed, "Lu Jiu is a playboy. There are very few people who can control his heart. I think Yao Xiang can control him. That's all."

"Well, that's true." Qin Sui thought about it and believed it: "I wonder if godmother has heard any messy rumors recently?"

Mrs. Lu rolled her eyes at Qin Sui and said, "You should just say what you want to say. Why are you beating around the bush?"

"Hehe!" Qin Cui smiled at Mrs. Lu in a flattering manner.

"Are you asking about the rumors about Princess Yaoxiang?" Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lu not only knew about it, but was also so frank about it. She was much more straightforward than Qin Cui.
Qin Sui did not hide anything and asked, "I just came from the princess. She is a little worried that the recent rumors will affect your opinion of her."

"It's impossible to say that I don't care at all." Mrs. Lu put down the things in her hands and sat down aside. Qin Sui also came over and sat opposite to listen to Mrs. Lu talking.

"However, Lu Jiu told me about Princess Yaoxiang's experiences from childhood to adulthood, and I can understand it."

"Besides, you know how ridiculous your ninth brother was before. The Huang family I chose for him couldn't calm his heart. The two of them were just a couple in appearance, and it hurt me to watch. If everyone is so cautious, there will always be problems after a long time."

"We women have a harder life than men. The world requires women to live a clean life and abide by the rules, but men can have three wives and four concubines and countless female confidants outside. If they don't have literary talent, people will just say they are romantic. But once they have some literary talent and write about those dirty things in a romantic way, they will be crowned as elegant and interesting stories, and there will be stories of romantic talents and beauties that are widely circulated."

"It's a pity for the wife at home. She is forgotten. If she dares to speak out, she will be laughed at as immoral. With a woman like that at home, it's no wonder that the husband loves the woman outside and is unwilling to go home."

"But can anyone say a word for the woman? She has a husband, but she has to stay alone in the empty room every night. How should she deal with it?"

It is a beautiful story when a talented and romantic man meets a beautiful woman. But it is actually a bullshit story. It is nothing more than some sneaky things between men and women.

If two people live together for a long time, after being wrapped up in the daily necessities of life, they will become ordinary people. How can they have the good mood of having a beautiful woman by their side?
"Don't look at Yaoxiang's high status. I feel bitter when I see her." Mrs. Lu finally sighed, "As for me, after they get married, your godfather and I will take our grandson back to Dancheng. We will not care about your ninth brother's future affairs."

No matter what, Mrs. Lu still had some concerns, but she was very generous. Qin Sui held her hand and said, "Actually, I also think it's better for you to go back to Dancheng. This capital is very chaotic, and there is no benefit in staying. Moreover, after a while, Yaoxiang and Jiuge will definitely go back to Dancheng to settle down together, so don't worry, godmother!"

"Will they really come back?" Mrs. Lu asked subconsciously, revealing her reluctance to part with her son.

"Yes, I will." Qin Cui couldn't help but laugh.

After settling everything here, Qin Sui went home. As soon as she got back, Li Siniang told her that Jiang Yue had sent a letter with a valuable gift attached.

Qin Su opened the letter first. The general meaning of the letter was to thank Qin Su. Although the decree was issued by the emperor, she understood that Qin Su and his wife had helped a lot.

"Accept the gift, and give her another generous gift when she gets married. She will be the princess in the future, and we should curry favor with her." Qin Sui said half jokingly, half sincerely.

Li Siniang understood and said, "The old lady has sent people to ask Madam several times whether she has returned. Madam, go and take a look. I wonder what happened?"

Qin Sui was stunned: "Let's change clothes and wash up first. It's too hot today. My back is all sweaty."

Li Siniang followed in to help, and heard Qin Sui ask, "Did anyone come to see mother today?"

"No, but the old lady went to the general's mansion, but she came back soon, unlike before when she always had lunch at the general's mansion before coming back."

Qin Sui was washing her hands. She was startled when she heard this and frowned, "Did she get angry in the general's mansion?"

"I don't think so. The people in the general's mansion treat the old lady very well. She is respected every time she goes there. Even our servants are taken care of politely. No one dares to bully the old lady."

Su didn't take care of much of the household chores. After giving birth to her younger daughter, she focused on taking care of her younger daughter and eldest grandson, and even left all the household chores to Li Siniang.

It was the first time that she was so anxious to find Qin Su. Qin Su changed her clothes and hurried to see Su.

The flowers in the garden were blooming beautifully, especially the wisteria in Su's yard, which had climbed all over the trellis. However, it was not yet the flowering season, so there were only green leaves on the tree.

The children were playing in the side rooms. Qin Su looked at the children first, but didn't see Su. The maid told Qin Su that Su was alone in the room and didn't want anyone to disturb her.

Qin Sui pushed the door open and walked in. There was a large screen in the middle of the room. Before Qin Sui walked over, she heard Su's low sobs.

"Mom, why are you crying? Have you been wronged?" Qin Su walked over quickly and saw her mother lying on the chaise longue, wiping tears with her back to her.

When she heard Qin Su coming, she turned around and sat up, looking at Qin Su with her red eyes with a very complicated look.

"Mom, who bullied you? Can you please tell your daughter?" Qin Sui lowered her voice and coaxed her with rare gentleness.

"I have a very capable daughter and son-in-law, a husband who is always elusive, and a father who is a prince and doesn't recognize me. Who else can bully me?"

"Mom, are you mad at me? And are you also mad at your favorite son-in-law?" For a moment, Qin Cui was more curious than concerned.
