Chapter 123, Zhong Lishu's temptation
After the personnel arranged the rest of the things, they could solve it in Chang'an, Su Xizhu was mainly worried about Xiaobai, Xiaobai had not left Su Xizhu for too long since he was so old, Su Xizhu didn't think about taking Xiaobai with him.
But this trip is not to visit the door, but to visit the seriously ill grandmother, how can there be a visit to the sick and a pet, so Su Xizhu can only leave Xiaobai at home.
"Xiaobai, I'm going to visit my grandmother this time, it will take a little longer, you have to listen to the words of joy at home, you know, you can't be naughty." Su Xizhu combed Xiaobai's hair, and instructed it while combing.
"Meow." What, shoveling and you want to go out without yourself? Xiaobai screamed.
"It's not good to take you with me, and I'm not going out to play, but I promise, when I come back, as long as you are obedient, my brother and I will take you out to play, and bring you a lot of delicious dried fish, don't disagree."
"Meow." Xiaobai obviously has no energy.
"Good Xiaobai, I will be very reluctant, and I will miss you, really." Su Xizhu kissed Xiaobai's little paws, and Xiaobai also rubbed Su Xizhu, a person and a cat were quite reluctant.
When Zhong Lishu came in and saw this kind of scene, he couldn't help but smile, "Cousin, what are you doing?" ”
"It's nothing, I'm not going to my grandfather's house, I'm just telling Xiaobai not to tear down the house."
"Don't worry, Xiaobai won't be so obedient, I will come to see it often." Zhong Lishu touched Xiaobai's head, and Xiaobai heard the other party praising it and meowed.
"By the way, why is my cousin here, is there something wrong?"
"Well, it's nothing, I'm just here to see you off." Zhong Lishu looked at Su Xizhu's clear eyes and couldn't say anything.
Jin Yi once said that his cousin and cousin were born as a pair, and Zhong Lishu used to feel very happy when he heard it, but now that Su Xizhu is going to her grandfather's house, I heard that the Jiang family has a lot of boys in this life, and when the time comes, Zhong Lishu will feel very uneasy.
The key is that Su Xizhu's grandmother is in very bad health, in case she has a last wish before she dies that she wants her granddaughter to marry a granddaughter from the Hou Mansion, what will the third uncle and the third aunt do?
The third uncle's family didn't expect Su Xizhu to marry in the first place, if the other party's conditions were very good, it would be difficult to ensure that the third uncle and the third aunt would not be tempted, and although the Jiang family was only a merchant, it was really rich.
Su Xizhu married into the Jiang family, and the third uncle and third aunt can also support her, maybe this is a good relationship in the hearts of the third uncle and the third aunt.
Zhong Lishu has always liked Su Xizhu very much, and when they grew up, they didn't want to come to the Hou Mansion to propose marriage, and his grandmother and father also had this tacit understanding, but now his mother is in Zhuangzi, and once he becomes a parent, his mother must come back, and his father is not in a hurry to marry himself because of this.
Originally, Zhong Lishu was not in a hurry, after all, Su Xizhu was still young and she had not yet opened her mind, but now Zhong Lishu regretted it, even if she was not in a hurry to get married, she should first set her name, and he could wait for his cousin to open up and like him.
"What's going on?" Su Xizhu looked at Zhong Lishu and asked with a look of wanting to say something.
"Cousin, are you familiar with all the brothers and sisters of your grandfather's family?" Zhong Lishu looked at Su Xizhu and asked cautiously.
"I'm not familiar, so I listened to the gifts prepared by my mother during the New Year's Festival, but my grandfather's family has a concubine and a concubine in this generation, and my grandson and grandson are plus
Up to seven or eight, typical yang flourishing and yin decaying. "Su Xizhu seems to have only seen the eldest cousin of his grandfather's family when he was a child, and the others have no impression.
"What about someone about your age?" Zhong Lishu continued to ask.
"Well, the two cousins are one year older than me, the second cousin of the eldest uncle's family and the third cousin of the second uncle's family are of the same age as me, and the two cousins are both from the same age, so I should be right."
Su Xizhu thought about it and said, but it was very strange for her to look at Zhong Lishu's increasingly ugly face.
"Cousin, aren't you afraid that I will be bullied when I go to my grandfather's house? No, my mother is my grandmother's only daughter-in-law, and besides, I am Miss Houfu and will not be bullied. ”
Although it is a little bad to say this, but my grandfather's family is a merchant, how can he offend the Hou Mansion, it is too late to curry favor, because of such twists and turns in the mother's family affairs, they dare not have any objections.
"Cousin, there are some things I want to tell you, don't blame me for being too careful."
"What, say." Su Xizhu was a little amused by Zhong Lisu's solemn appearance.
"Cousin, it is an indisputable fact that your grandfather's family benefited from marrying into the Hou Mansion because of the third aunt, but the relationship between the third aunt and her mother's family is average over the years, your grandmother is critically ill, once she dies, your grandfather will pass away again in the future, only with your two uncles, I am afraid that the relationship with the Hou Mansion will become weaker and weaker.
The Jiang family should also take this situation into account, so what will they do? It's not that I think too much, it is their best choice for you to marry back to the Jiang family, and your uncle's son is the same age as you, if your grandmother begs the third aunt in danger, do you think the third aunt will agree? ”
"No, my mother will definitely ask me about my family." Although Su Xizhu said so, if it was really as Zhong Lishu said, what if her grandmother threatened her mother that she would die if she didn't marry her to the Jiang family?
When the Jiang family poured, they would say some more assurances, why not take concubines, live in separate houses or something, maybe the mother will really agree.
If it weren't for the fact that the Jiang family was Su Xizhu's maternal grandfather, in fact, the Jiang family would still be hiding that it met Su Xizhu's criteria for choosing a family.
"Cousin, don't worry, I'll tell my mother, and I won't marry my cousin." Su Xizhu felt that she needed to give her mother a preventive shot.
"Why?" Hearing Su Xizhu say that she was unwilling to marry the Jiang family, Zhong Lishu was very happy, but Su Xizhu directly denied his cousin, who was also a cousin.
"Because there is a blood relationship, and it is not good for the children in the future, I don't understand this, anyway, as long as you know, don't choose any aunt and cousin in the future, it's best not to choose any of the blood relatives within five generations."
Su Xizhu had no way to tell Zhong Lishu about biology, so he could only say this to Zhong Lishu, and he didn't find that Zhong Lishu's face was ugly, and he looked like he was shocked.
"What's wrong? Scared? I know everyone likes to marry cousins, but it's not good for future generations, and you just listen to me anyway. ”
Su Xizhu thought that Zhong Lishu was frightened by his opposition to the conventional world, so he comforted him so much, and didn't realize that saying this was a denial of him for Zhong Lishu.
"Cousin, I'll leave first if it's okay." Zhong Lishu needed to think about it calmly, so he could only leave first, anyway, his purpose today was achieved.
Su Xizhu watched Zhong Lishu leave and thought about it and went to find the Jiang family, and Zhong Lishu was because of Su Xizhu's
The whole person was in a trance, until he met Jin Yi on the road.
"Ashu, what's wrong with you?" Jin Yi looked at Zhong Lishu and stopped him in a trance, what happened to Zhong Lishu was so unruly, and he was not afraid of accidents.
"Jin Yi, it's nothing." Zhongli smiled, and suddenly thought of something and asked Jin Yi if he was free.
"Yes, what's wrong?"
"Let's go, I'll treat you to dinner." Jin Yi looked at Zhong Lishu and nodded in agreement as if he wanted to chat with him.
"Jin Yi, do you say it's not good for cousins to get married?"
"Why? How many cousins have married in this world, and I haven't heard anything bad. "Jin Yile is happy.
"Yes, a lot, why can't my cousin say it well?" Zhongli muttered softly.
"Cousin? Su Xizhu? Your marriage proposal with her was denied? "Jin Yi came to the spirit.
"No, don't talk nonsense, I didn't ask my cousin for marriage, that is, when it comes to this matter, my cousin is very optimistic about the marriage between cousins." Zhong Li denied it again and again.
"What's the matter, Su Xizhu is denying that cousins are married, not denying you as a person, if you are really good, Su Xizhu likes you, she won't care about this."
Jin Yi was a little strange, how could Su Xizhu object to such a thing. But that doesn't matter, it's more important to comfort Zhongli Shu now.
"No, my cousin and I don't, we don't." Zhong Lishu blushed.
"Know, know, rest assured, I won't say anything." Jin Yi smiled evilly, Zhong Lishu's whole heart was on Su Xizhu's body, and he was not blind, how could he not see it.
Zhong Lishu blushed more and more when Jin Yi said, but his mood was much better, Jin Yi was right, as long as he was good enough and sincere to his cousin, his cousin would like him. I don't deny myself because I am a cousin.
Jiang Shi looked at Su Xizhu coming in and asked, "Why are you here?" Got everything packed? ”
"Pack it up, mother, there's something I want to tell you."
"Say." Jiang looked at his daughter amusedly and asked the others to go down first.
"Mother, if your grandfather's family wants your daughter to marry into the Jiang family, you must not agree, even if your grandmother threatens you and begs you, you can't know?"
"Why do you think that?" Jiang looked at her daughter's serious little face and was happy, but soon her expression became more solemn.
"You don't want to marry into the Jiang family? Could it be that Sister Zhu has a sweetheart? ”
"No, it's not that I look down on my grandfather's family, I don't want to marry into a relative's family, I don't like the behavior of kissing and kissing." Su Xizhu emphasized her concept.
Jiang doesn't take his daughter's words seriously, isn't Brother Shu Sister Zhu's cousin? However, the Jiang family did not plan to marry their daughter to the Jiang family, so they agreed with their daughter's point of view.
"Mother, when I get to my grandfather's house, if someone asks about my daughter's relatives, you will say that my grandmother has shown me a good family, and the two sides have passed the clear road, in short, my family affairs should listen to my grandmother."
Su Xizhu felt that he should not give the Jiang family a chance to speak from the beginning, although Cousin Dashu was a little worried, but it was not easy for his grandmother to really make some last words as the daughter of the Jiang family.
Su Xizhu is very solemn, just think that she is worrying, but it is related to her lifelong happiness, and it is impossible to be too careful.
