Chapter 104: Good Things Come in Pairs
It's the end of the day.
The women who came to Ruyi Lou lingered in front of the dazzling fabric racks, or stopped by stroking the bright and bright silk, or looked at the colors on each other's bodies.
As soon as Su Shi entered the Ruyi Building, a brightly dressed servant woman immediately greeted her from the side and led her up to the third floor with a smile on her face.
Mama Xu followed behind.
Ruyi building has a total of three floors, the first floor is to entertain ordinary guests, the price of the fabric is relatively cheaper, the grade of the second floor is raised again, most of the rich women look at the cloth place, the third floor is needless to say, naturally it is specially used to entertain princes and noblewomen, for this reason, there are several tea rooms in it.
It can be seen that King Jin is very good at doing business.
Without the introduction of the servant, Su Shi familiarly pushed open the door of a side room, walked in calmly, and saw the middle-aged man sitting in front of the window desk, he couldn't help but take a few quick steps, stepped forward, and called softly: "Big brother, why are you here so early?" ”
Looking at the steady and mighty man in front of her, a trace of warmth suddenly rose in her eyes, no matter what, this person is her dearest, and she can completely trust someone.
"I've just arrived, too." Su Congxu pulled the corners of his mouth slightly, stretched out his hand with a scar and knocked it on the table a few times at will, raised his eyebrows and said, "What is so important that you have to talk to me?" ”
Su Shi briefly talked about the Huangfu family's condition, and said in a low voice: "This time the palace went to the Western Regions Palace to ask for the Tianshan Snow Lotus, relying on the name of the Queen Mother, I think the Western Regions will definitely give up the Tianshan Snow Lotus, so in three or four days, that Snow Lotus will enter Beijing." After a pause, he glanced at Su Congxu resentfully, "Big brother, you know, over the years, Mrs. Tai has always disliked me, nominally I am in charge of the house, but in fact it is Mrs. Tai who is really in charge, and if she has anything on weekdays, she would rather discuss with Erlang than let me know ......."
"I see." Su Congxu nodded, seeing that Su's gaze had more meaning, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he said in a deep voice, "You don't want that snow lotus to enter Beijing, right?" ”
Su Shi nodded, lowered his head and stroked his fingers, and sighed: "As long as she lives for one day, it is impossible for me to really take over the Yongding Marquis Mansion, for so many years, no matter what I do, she has been wary of me openly and secretly, with her, Che'er is afraid that there will be no day when she will attack the lord." ”
It's better to take this opportunity to get rid of the old immortal.
Once.
"Don't worry, it's on me." Su Congxu's eyes swept a trace of ruthlessness, squinted at her, and said, "Ruyi's relationship with Gorou, although my father didn't nod, but he didn't shake his head, he must have been willing in his heart, but I don't know what Gorou means." ”
When he said this, of course, he didn't ask Mu Yunqi if he could take a fancy to Su Ruyi, but that he had a well-known incident with the prince of Jin who robbed a woman a few days ago, and there was no family in the past, he heard about the absurdity of this nephew, so he naturally just laughed it off, but now, since he wants to be his son-in-law, then he will never allow his daughter to marry such a person.
Su Shi understood, and hurriedly said good things for Mu Yunqi: "Brother, don't worry, since that incident, Wulang has changed his temperament, and he has studied hard all day long, and when he returns home, he has no distractions, just waiting for Ruyi to pass the door and help me discipline him." ”
Su Congxu frowned at this time.
The brother and sister discussed it carefully, and decided to cut through the mess with a quick knife, and marry Su Ruyi in the name of Chongxi to the Huangfu clan.
In the early years, in order to marry Mu Changyuan, the Su family did not hesitate to be kicked out of the house by General Su, and threatened that there was no contact with him since, although the Su family never returned to his parents' house, but he still had some dealings with this only brother in private.
It's just a few years ago, Su Congxu had a lot of complaints about her breaking up with her mother's family for a man, although the brother and sister came and went, it was also faint, in recent years, Su was corrected and became the head of the Yongding Marquis Mansion, plus many years have passed, and the two have gradually gotten closer.
Especially after the accident of the eighth prince recently, the two met more frequently, because the eighth prince Huangfu Chen once asked someone to come to the door to pass the mouth, saying that he was willing to marry Su Fu and ask to marry Su Congxu's only concubine, Su Ruyi.
At that time, Huangfu Chen had just been married by the Queen Mother, and the concubine had the master, so General Su didn't want his only granddaughter to be a side room, so he pretended to be deaf and dumb and did not let go.
Recently, the eighth prince had an accident because of the assassination of Mufu Sanniang, so that he repented of his marriage with Mufu, and was demoted to Bingzhou to patrol the territory on behalf of the Son of Heaven.
To the effect that if the eighth prince asks to marry Su Ruyi as a concubine, then how should the Su family express their position.
Su naturally did not agree with his niece marrying the Eighth Prince, but suggested that it was better to marry his niece to Wulang Muyunqi and make her a daughter-in-law.
In this way, the brother and sister have become in-laws, and it is naturally justifiable to get along, no matter how stubborn General Su is, it is impossible to break up this marriage.
Besides, the marriage between the two mansions of Mu and Su is tantamount to bringing a powerful force to the prince, and the Su family has military power in hand after all.
In short, no matter from which point of view, this family affair is beneficial and harmless.
After Su returned to the house, he immediately discussed with Mu Changyuan, saying that she went to the temple to ask for a sign of joy and misfortune, and looked at the abbot, saying that it was best to hold a happy event in the house, make it lively, and give Mrs. Tai Chong joy, and by the way, drive away the bad luck in the house.
Because the Su family had mentioned this family matter to Mu Changyuan before, at that time Mu Changyuan said that this matter had to be discussed with the Huangfu family, so he didn't take it to heart, right now, the Huangfu family was unconscious, so it was naturally impossible to know what she meant, and I heard that it was for the Huangfu family, so he naturally happily agreed.
At the end, Su Shi glanced at Mu Changyuan with a complicated mood, and said, It is said that good things come in pairs, and it is always good to have one more happy event in the house, so it is better to take this opportunity to bring the woman in the back street of the alley to the mansion as well!
Mu Changyuan held Su's hand at the moment, and said with great emotion, if you have a wife like this in this life, what more can a husband ask for?
That night, Cardamom Xuan ushered in a new owner, and the mysterious woman who had been silent in the back street for more than a month finally entered the Hou Mansion as she wished, and since then she has become Mu Changyuan's famous concubine.
Aunt Tian walked around the house, too anxious.
Why did the little slut in the back street of the alley enter the house so quickly.
What will she do with her life after that day?
However, Bailing persuaded: "Auntie must no longer be impulsive, as the saying goes, knowing each other and knowing oneself will not be defeated in a hundred battles, we must first find out what kind of person the new aunt is, in order to confront her, otherwise, the person who suffers is not himself." ”
Last time, the two of them went to the back street to make trouble, and the janitor's skills have been seen, if they only found the door this time, wouldn't it be boring to be self-deprecating?
Aunt Tian thought about it and thought so, so she had to soften her heart and ask Bai Ling to go to the shop to get some rouge gouache and the like, and said that she would give it to that woman tomorrow, try what kind of goods she was first, and then make plans.
Bai Ling immediately took the order and left.
However, when Xia heard that Cai Yan had entered the mansion, he made up for Aunt Tian's angry appearance, gloated, and couldn't help but think of Chun Tao, and went around in circles, or that girl came up with such a good idea to suppress that little slut, but now, Chun Tao can no longer see it.
I was so sad for a while, and then I sighed, it's all fate!
Who would have thought that a good person could stumble into a well!
"Madam Da Shao, the recent happy events in the house have been one after another!" Mama Yang carefully pulled her hair, and said with crooked eyebrows, "I heard that in three days, the fifth young master will also get married!" ”
No, all the maids and servants in the house are busy.
Especially the sewing room.
"That's not to make Mrs. Tai happy." Xia Shi gave a look to the little maid standing in the room, and after the maid retreated, he turned his head and said to Mama Yang, "Mama, don't you think this matter is too sudden?" We hadn't heard even a little bit of news beforehand. ”
She hadn't heard of it anyway.
"Young lady, do you know ......" Mama Yang looked out the window and said in a low voice, "Mrs. Tai has always disliked Mrs., so I am afraid that I will not agree to the fifth young master marrying Mrs. Madame's family as a wife, if Mrs. Tai does not agree, then this family business will definitely not be successful, but now it is different, now Mrs. Tai is unconscious, and this family matter is in the name of giving Mrs. Tai joy, and Mrs. Tai will not say anything in the future." ”
She naturally sees these things clearly.
Xia Shi suddenly paused, and asked again: "I just don't know what the temperament of this new brother and sister is?" ”
Although she is from her mother-in-law's family, her mother-in-law has not had any contact with her mother's family over the years, where would she know what Su Ruyi is.
"The slave maid heard that Miss Su is a straightforward person, but I don't know if she is a good match if she marries." Mama Yang didn't have much impression of Su Ruyi.
"Humph! What if she is her mother-in-law's own niece? I'm the eldest sister-in-law in the house, and she has to respect me." Xia said disapprehantly, "Anyway, we are concubines, different from Qingxinyuan." ”
"The eldest young lady is right, the eldest young master and the fifth young master are the brothers of the same mother!" Mama Yang hurriedly agreed.
Because Mu Yunqi's happy event was too hasty, most of the maids and servants in the house were dispatched to listen to the Yutang side to arrange the wedding room, and Mu Yingtang also became deserted.
Shen Qingli didn't believe what Chong Xi said, but this was the decision of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, let alone her, even Mu Yunting wouldn't say anything, not to mention, this was still a big joy.
Although Mu Yunting took a day off, but on this day, he was almost not idle, looking for him either for this or that, he originally wanted to stay with his daughter-in-law in Muyingtang and serve his grandmother for a day with tea and water, but Gong Si just left, and Feng Liu said that there was something important to report.
Shen Qingli simply asked him to go back to the study to deal with his messy things, otherwise, it would be very inconvenient for people to come and go.
Mu Yunting had no choice but to get up and return to the study.
"Shizi, there is news from the Western Regions, saying that there is no Tianshan Snow Lotus in the palace at this time, so ......" Feng Liu sighed, "My subordinates feel that the Western Regions are trying to use this to embarrass us." ”
Hearing this, Mu Yunting pinched his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, got up and took the rice paper, wrote a letter word by word, handed it to him, and instructed: "In this way, you immediately take someone to the black market in the Western Regions, find a woman named Greenwaist, and then give this letter to her, I think she will definitely help." ”
Green waist? Feng Liu couldn't help but look awkward. R1152
