223. Family Affairs

The Su family was taken aback by Jian Fengyang's eager look, and hurriedly said: "The concubine body was originally to see that the Xia family was not visible in the court, and she wanted to set a strong wife for Brother Jie, so she didn't take it down, didn't Hou Ye also say that it was best for our family not to get involved in the situation in the court, although the Xia family is hot now, I don't know when it will be ......."

Jian Fengyang interrupted: "You ignorant woman! Didn't you hear the two holy decrees issued by the emperor in the palace today? Let the crown prince and the three princes go to the northwest together, this shows that the emperor attaches great importance to the three princes, and the daughter of the Xia family was rewarded by the queen mother. ”

Su Shi was disgraced by Jian Fengyang's words, thinking that Xie Shi had been dull and boring since he was a child, she couldn't help but feel a little irritable, she was able to give birth to such a daughter, so that the Xia family instantly became a high-profile family in Yunfu City, she felt a little tired in her heart, when did the Xie family, who was timid and could only hide behind people, instantly become so dazzling?

Although she thought so in her heart, she didn't dare to say a word about what her husband explained, so she had to accept it.

On the second day, Su Shi went to Xia Mansion, she didn't rush to Baoshan to come to the door, but just picked some New Year's gifts.

Because there was no contact between the two families in previous years, and Xie had been ill for a long time, she didn't know what to send, so she picked up some things to replenish qi and blood, and when the carriage approached Xia's house, she unexpectedly found that a carriage made by the Internal Affairs Office was parked in front of Xia's house, the carriage was very magnificent, and the horse pulling the carriage was also a famous horse, and it was parked at the door of Xia's house with high spirits, lining the Xia family's exquisite house more chic.

Su's carriage had to stop behind the carriage, and when Su saw the car through the gap in the hanging cotton door curtain, he couldn't help frowning and thinking, I don't know which royal relatives came to the Xia family as a guest, and it was such a big show.

It wasn't until the carriage was pulled into the Xia Mansion by the groom that her carriage approached the gate of the Xia Mansion.

After getting out of the carriage, Su asked the accompanying maid to take the New Year's gift and send it in, followed by himself, and followed the maid in the inner courtyard to Fushoutang.

At this time, the Fushou Hall was very lively, Su Shi saw at a glance that Mrs. Xia was pulling a young man who was only thirteen or fourteen years old to speak, the young man's appearance was very exquisite, his eyes were very bright, as if he had dissolved a piece of amber into it, and a red cinnabar mole was born under the corner of his eyes, which broke the coldness in the young man's eyes, and lined with that shocking appearance with an indescribable gorgeous and dazzling appearance.

Su Shi felt a panic in her heart when she glanced at it, such a good look, no matter who saw it, she would not be able to forget it, she was guessing the identity of this young man, but was interrupted by Xie Shi's laughter.

"Why does Sister Lan have time to come over today?"

Xie Shi saw Su Shi and hurriedly greeted her, Su Shi smiled and said to her: "The family is almost busy, so I thought of coming to see you, I didn't know that your house had guests today, and I was a little presumptuous......

The Su family hadn't come to the Xia Mansion for many years, and the Xie family felt a little strange in his heart, but he still smiled and introduced her: "This guest has lived in our house for many years, and he is not a serious guest to say. ”

With such a sentence, the Su family reacted, and the young man in front of him turned out to be the third prince!

With a surprised expression on her face, she hurriedly knelt down and saluted, but was stopped by Chu Shaoyuan, "Madame doesn't have to be polite, Zi'an and I are also very good friends, Madame should treat me as a junior." ”

Su Shi was resentful in her heart, Zi'an, the emperor gave that little word to the concubine, she never thought that such a concubine whom she had worked so hard to squeeze out would unconsciously attract everyone's attention, and she couldn't help clenching her fists.

She gritted her teeth and replied with a smile: "It is his blessing to be valued so much by His Royal Highness the Third Prince. ”

Chu Shaoyuan nodded, and did not talk to her again, but said to Xie Shi: "Does my sister's injury matter?" I think Zi'an's medical skills are very good, I turned around and told him, let him come over and take a look, the injury is in such an important place as the neck, and he is not afraid of leaving a scar, my sister really doesn't know the severity ......of her attack at all."

Xie Shi's tone was a little helpless: "She can't do it, she has no way to meet such a thing, and she will be so ......ruthless when she is desperate" Xie Shi said, remembering that the two of them have not dealt with each other since childhood, and admonished, "Her wound is hurting these days, and she fell asleep in the middle of the night yesterday, and you see her for a while, but don't mention it, she will bully you when she hits Xiaoai, and you will annoy her for a while, and you will make a little sex again." ”

The corners of Chu Shaoyuan's mouth pursed a bright smile, "Mother don't worry, I won't say anything about her." ”

When Su Shi heard this, he looked at Xie Shi in surprise, and the whole person was almost frightened by the words of the third prince, he actually called Xie Shi "Mother"! He was so close to Xie Shi!

No wonder the Hou Ye wants her to marry the Xia Mansion no matter what, seeing that the emperor loves the three princes so much, the future of the three princes will definitely not be bad, he is so close to the Xia family, and his son will marry Miss Xia in the future, with such a relationship, he is close to the three princes, is the son afraid that he will not have a good future?

Su Shi thought like this, the smile on his face was a little more sincere, when he saw Xia Chanyi enter Fushou Hall, his eyes lit up, and he praised her with a smile from Xie Shi: "Your sister's fate is getting better and better, yesterday Hou Ye also said that your sister has a good temperament, and I think about it, I can be liked by the Queen Mother, where will it be mortal." ”

Chanyi was very strange, it wasn't the first time that Su Shi had seen her, why did he still praise her as a flower? Listening to Su Shi's tone, was it for her own marriage? She couldn't help but look at Su Shi a few more times.

Chu Shaoyuan heard such words in his ears, his heart jumped suddenly, when he looked at Mrs. Cheng Bohou, his eyes crossed a little scrutiny, he looked sideways at Chan Yi, and found that Chan Yi was frowning at Mrs. Cheng Bohou, with some doubts on his face, but his heart was not happy.

He put away his feelings and asked Xie, "I don't know if the second brother is at home." ”

Xie Shi smiled and said: "Yes, the Hidden Autumn Courtyard is far away from Fushou Hall, it is estimated that it will take a while to arrive, you can wait for ......."

Chu Shaoyuan got up with a smile, "There are guests coming, I'd better go directly to the Hidden Autumn Courtyard with my sister to talk to the second brother." ”

Xie nodded, "It's okay, you little dolls must have something to whisper about, remember to come to lunch after a while, mother has prepared your favorite food." ”

Chu Shaoyuan responded, and walked out of Fushoutang Hall one after the other with Chanyi.

Su Shi looked at the backs of the two of them, and said to Xie Shi with a smile: "The relationship is really good, even the brothers and sisters in the children of ordinary families may not be able to get along so well." ”

There was some inquiry in Su's words, and he wanted to ask about the situation of the third prince in the mansion.

Xie Shi smiled, stopped talking about it, and found something else to say: "At the end of the year, every family is busy, how can you have the time to visit the door?"

Su Shi knew that the Xie family didn't want to talk about the matter of the third prince, and he was a little annoyed at the moment, but he couldn't express himself, so he had to endure it and said, "Actually, I came here today because I want to tell you something." ”

Xie Shi looked at her and asked, "What's the matter?"

Su Shi pursed the corners of his mouth, and finally raised a smile, and his voice was soft: "The thing you mentioned to me before, I talked to Hou Ye and finally got Hou Ye to agree, so I wanted to ask you, is what you said at that time still serious?"

Xie Shi opened his eyes, came back to his senses, smiled and let her to the seat, and said to Mrs. Xia: "Mother still has to make up her mind about this matter." ”

Old Madam Xia's eyes can be described as fiery eyes, and she saw Su Shi's reaction just now, and her voice was a little indifferent: "Wanwan is still young, and her two elder brothers have not yet made a family appointment, so it is not too late to discuss this matter in a year or two." ”

Su Shi gritted her teeth with hatred, she lowered her body to discuss marriage with them, but they actually took it up, and they didn't look at what their identity was, a small fourth-grade official, especially Xia Shijing, who is an official like Xia Shijing, is such a daughter worthy of being the son-in-law of the third-grade marquis's family?

Thinking like this, the expression on his face stiffened.

Xie Shi was afraid of hurting the feelings of the two families, so he was busy playing the round: "What my mother said is that in the past two days, we are going to go around for the two brothers' relatives, and when the two brothers' relatives are decided, we will discuss it later, but it will be twelve after the New Year, and the girls in our Yunfu City will be married early, and it should be discussed at this time." ”

A few words opened the scene again.

Su Shi smiled and nodded yes, " Our family Brother Jie is too, the son of the world has decided on the daughter of the Zheng family, Hou Ye asked me to find a door for Brother Jie to find a person with a comparable door, to follow me, although there are a few people in Yunfu who are equivalent to our family portal, but there are few daughters in the family I like, either the temperament is perverse, or the number of people who are raised is not polite, since I saw Sister Chan last time, I feel that I have a fate with her, look at this child, how to see how I like it, I mentioned this matter to Hou Ye when I turned around, saying that it doesn't matter how the family background is, as long as it is a virtuous and generous person, the future days will be lived, and Hou Ye should be。 ”

Su's words were very measured, first pointed out that his family is a noble family in Yunfu City, which is not comparable to ordinary people, but he did not blindly belittle the Xia family, only metaphorically said that the lintel of the Xia family is too short, and she only likes the character of Chanyi, so she will grind her mouth with her husband, and finally get such a result, if the Xia family misses it, there will be no such a good opportunity.

Xie couldn't help but be a little moved, and looked at Old Madam Xia.

Old Madam Xia smiled and said to the Su family: "It's rare that Madam values my family so much, and this matter has to wait for her father to come back and discuss it before deciding." ”

Su Shi also knew in his heart that this was the case, so he didn't dwell on it at the moment, and after talking again, he went back to Chengbo Houfu.

And Chu Shaoyuan and Chanyi walked out of Fushoutang Hall and walked on the path of Fushoutang, but Chu Shaoyuan walked faster and faster, until he saw the warm pavilion, he stopped, and ordered the little chamberlain with him to let him go to the Hidden Autumn Courtyard to say first, turned around and pulled Chanyi into the warm pavilion.
