Chapter 504: Change

After Yao Wang left, Yao sat alone in the house for a long time.

Although the Yao family has long been proud of the status of the Cheng'en Hou Mansion, and often looks down on others with their own identity, in the early years, the prominence of her maternal ancestor Wang's family was too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and she still habitually felt that the Qin family had many shortcomings. And because the Qin family room is not outstanding except for the title of Marquis of Chengen, the Qin family now really has power, and only the Qin Bai in the third room is the Qin Bai, so the Yao family's thoughts are quite contradictory now, on the one hand, they are proud of the Qin family's "holy family", and on the other hand, they are inferior to the weakness of the long house. Under such entanglement, she naturally couldn't see the changes in the status of the Qin family.

The Qin family is indeed a relative who does not have real power, only one Yongjia Marquis Qin Bai is respected in front of the emperor and the prince, and the future of others is limited, and the real power is limited, and it seems that it is not worth a topic in the eyes of outsiders.

However, the Qin family's current in-laws should not be underestimated. In addition to the royal family, whether it is the king of Suning County, the king of Qin, the Marquis of Yunyang, the Bofu of Shoushan, the Siqing of Dali, and the Jiangmen of the Min family...... All of them are real power. If you add to the fact that Wang Fuzhong, the most trusted servant in the imperial front, is the protégé of Qin Bai, Marquis of Yongjia, and there are several disciples who are orthodox jinshi who have already stepped into the official career, the influence of the Qin family in the dark is far beyond what the world can see. With these helps, not to mention the stable position of the Qin family, future generations want to seek development, and there is no shortage of help at all. This is the saying that muffled makes a fortune.

Yao couldn't help but be in a trance, thinking of the Wang family, which was prominent back then. At that time, the royal family had influence in the circle of officials in the government and the opposition, right? In the court and in the localities, there were many connections, but they were relatively scattered and relatively empty, and most of the allies were united by interests, and once they were attacked by the royal family, the Wang family quickly fell. This is still because the Tang family is low-key and does not compete with the Wang family for power. However, the Wang family's marriage to the royal family is not as influential as the current Qin family. Why did everyone think that the Wang family was very great at that time, but now few people brag about the Qin family?

Yao thought of Qin Bai, who had always acted inconspicuously, Niu who was unsociable, and the others in Sanfang, and then thought of her husband Qin Zhonghai who had been much more low-key in recent years, and finally understood something. Many of her ideas and practices are indeed contrary to her husband and the third room. She has never been able to wake up, her husband persuaded her, but she couldn't listen, no wonder her husband became more and more impatient with her, and she was not even allowed to interfere in the affairs of her children.

Yao's heart was a little sneering, but after thinking about it, he felt that Hengzhu had not made any big mistakes, and although the children's family affairs were not her own master, the results were quite satisfactory. Yu Xinlan's temperament does not suit her mind, but her family background is strong, and Tang Hanmen is a little second, but she is also the grandson of King Qin. In other words, she went to see each other for the two children, and she didn't know if she could get along better, so she didn't have to worry about it. Anyway, the children are so close, and her face is bright. Outsiders don't know the inside story, they won't gossip about her, she just enjoys the scenery that comes with peace of mind.

The Yao family regained their spirits, and thought in their hearts that the aunt of the Yao family wanted to marry her daughter to Qin Su, but she still had to refuse. If the Yao family wants to seek benefits from the Qin family's marriage, it is enough to have her. If her niece wants to talk about good family affairs, she can help find a candidate, as for Qin Su, it is better to find a daughter from a small family, or to find a concubine who is not favored by the official eunuch's family. In the past, the Yao family didn't take the concubine to heart, and it was also determined that it was impossible for him to enter the eyes of the high-ranking families, but now the Qin family is not as good as before, what if any official eunuch family would rather sacrifice a concubine in order to climb the Qin family, just like the uncle and aunt of the Yao family? Wouldn't that be cheaper for the rabbit cub? Qin Su's family affairs, she still held it in her hand better, and she must not let him jump out of the palm of her hand.

Yao made up his mind and was about to call Yulan over to discuss which people's daughters in Beijing met her requirements, so that she could tell Qin Su, but Xu's side sent someone over and called her over to talk.

Yao was puzzled and didn't know what her mother-in-law was going to do, but she still passed obediently. She would not openly violate this basic etiquette.

However, Yao's eyes and ears are installed in the Songfeng Hall where his in-laws live. Before she could enter the main hall of Songfeng Hall, someone secretly reported to her the Xu family's possible plan - the purpose of Yao Wang's visit had already reached Xu's ears.

Yao's brows furrowed. She didn't have to guess to know that her mother-in-law would definitely mention the Xu family again.

In fact, recently, many daughters of big families in Beijing have decided to marry, and some girls may be because they are too hasty to say that they are married, and they will even be a little matched. Some children of eunuchs who are in a similar situation to Xu Zheng can even be matched with the daughters of high-ranking officials of the third rank because they are famous for their own talents or talents. The Xu family once complained to his confidant in private, saying that the Xu family was too unlucky, and Xu Zheng was too unlucky! If he hadn't decided that Miss Lu was his fiancée early on, and he was currently in the period of filial piety, maybe he would still be able to marry a powerful daughter! But the Xu family can't do anything now! And because the young talents in Beijing have marriage contracts one after another, after the Xu family is full of filial piety, it will be even more difficult for Xu Xiu to say a decent and good family affair. And Xu Rong and Xu Lan's relatives don't know where they are. Xu complained about the eldest sister-in-law again, and secretly cried.

Yao's listening to the gossip was secretly happy, and he only saw that he was watching a joke in his heart, and felt that the Xu family thought too highly of himself. But now that Xu suddenly called her over to talk because Yao Wang came to the door, it made her vigilant again. Could it be that the mother-in-law saw that the juniors of other people's families were difficult to make up their minds, so she couldn't make up the Yao family's idea? Their Yao family is also a decent official eunuch family, and they absolutely can't look down on the two daughters of the Xu family! Not to mention Xu Rong's white body!

Yao decided to strike first.

When the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law met the ceremony, Xu's greetings paved a few words, and then mentioned the matter of the in-law Yao Wang's passing house, and when he was about to get into the main topic, Yao preemptively opened his mouth: "My mother was forced to come over by a concubine, and the Tao is an aunt who has taken a fancy to Su Ge'er and plans to marry one of my nieces." I thought that these two children were not compatible, and they were different in age, so how could they be relatives? My mother blamed me, saying that it was a good thing to be close to each other, so why should I refuse? What could I say? I had to talk about it, and I didn't dare to tell my mother, in fact, I had already planned for Su Ge'er's family affairs. Of course, it's a good thing to be close to each other, but after all, the niece and daughter of the Yao family are separated from each other, where can she be closer to Madame's maiden family?"

Xu Shi was stunned, and some didn't react: "What do you mean by this......"

Yao said with a smile on his face: "The two cousins and nephews of the Xu family, whether they are Sister Xiu or Sister Lan, are close to Brother Su and have the same appearance as Brother Su, if they can achieve marriage, wouldn't it be a match made in heaven? As long as the lady nods, the second master will wrap around me. As soon as the Xu family is filial, I will personally invite the big media to come to the door to propose my relatives!

What did Xu think? Xu was about to vomit blood.

Xu Lan is up, if it weren't for the marriage of the concubine and the concubine, it would not be of much significance to strengthen the relationship between the two families, maybe it could have been decided two years earlier, and now I will mention it again, although it is a little bit more chicken, it is better than nothing. However, Xu Xiu is the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and she almost married the prince of Yunyang Hou, and almost married Qin Jian, the heir of the Cheng'en Hou Mansion. How could she marry Qin Su?! Daughter-in-law Yao's words are clearly stepping on the face of the Xu family and the face of the mother-in-law of the Xu family!

However, Xu couldn't reprimand his daughter-in-law in words. Because the Yao family is willing to marry Qin Su as the daughter of the six-rank official, how can she say that Qin Su is not worthy of the daughter of the Xu family? The Qin family is no longer the Qin family of the past, and the Xu family is no longer the Xu family of the past. She can no longer look at the marriage of the two families with the same old eyes. At the beginning, for the sake of Qin Jian and Xu Xiu, Qin Jinhua and Xu Zheng's family affairs, she was caught in the middle, and she was not pleasing on both sides, and she ended up in the end now, she has suffered a big loss, where do you dare to be good at advocacy? Even if you want to refuse, you must use a more tactful method. She still wants to marry Xu Xiu Xu to Lu Chuming, she can't belittle Qin Su too much, in case she arouses her son's disgust, how can she open that mouth?

Therefore, Xu reluctantly smiled and said to Yao: "You will also say that the Xu family is keeping filial piety, where is the time to talk about these things now? You can concentrate on the marriage of Brother Jian and Jinhua girl, you don't have to pay attention to the others, and it will save Brother Su and his aunt from being ignorant and making you angry. ”

Yao's smiled: "This is all a matter of daughter-in-law, how can it be pushed to the second master?" She just wanted to stop Xu's mouth from making requests, but she didn't really want Qin Su to marry the daughter of the Xu family, so she wouldn't insist on anything. Of course, if Qin Su really married Xu Xiu back, she would be very happy in her heart.

Xu Shi cleared his throat and asked Yao: "Is there a letter from Changlu's side in the past two days? Chu Ming's illness doesn't know what's going on?" Last time you Zhen sent a letter, saying that his illness had been cured, but he would cough a few times from time to time, but he was afraid that he would hurt his vitality, and he had to stay in Changlu to recuperate. I was so worried. What kind of good doctor can Changlu have? Where is it more convenient than Beijing? Anyway, the two places are not far apart, and now that the weather is getting warmer, it is not tight to get on the road. You write a letter to the past, talk about the happy event between Brother Jian and Jinhua, and let Youzhen take Chu Ming back to Beijing. Chu Liang has lived alone in the house for a long time, and he doesn't even care about being a father? ”

Yao Shi was a little puzzled, and muttered in her heart that her mother-in-law could do this kind of thing by herself, why did she have to write a letter? But this was not a difficult thing, she still agreed to come down: "Madame, don't worry, I will send a letter to Changlu when I turn back." Anyway, for the good things of Brother Jian and Jinhua, the eldest aunt and grandmother still have to come back for a glass of wine. ”

Xu Shi smiled and nodded slightly: "You are right. ”
