Zhong Lishu looked at Su Rou indifferently, Su Rou was a little unbearable by Zhong Lishu's expression, but thinking that Prince Minglan heard that he was not feeling well and actually sent someone from the palace to reward the medicinal herbs, Su Rou's originally softened attitude became firm again.

"Brother Shu, a marriage that is not blessed will not be happy, you may think that Sister Zhu is important now, but in a few years, when the people around you who are not as good as you are prosperous because of the help of your in-laws, will you not regret it?

Your father is an example, didn't he quit and married his mother because of the Zhu family's crime, even now, his mother is still Mrs. Hou of the Hou Mansion of Changping, it can be seen that in your father's heart, what kind of love is not comparable to the glory and future of the family, so Brother Shu, you believe in your mother, give up Sister Zhu, you will not have a good result. ”

Zhong Lishu shook his head, he is not his father, his cousin is more important to him than the future, he will not give up his cousin, Su Rou looked at Zhong Lishu's expression and worked harder, Zhong Lishu's eyebrows jumped, and he was suddenly knocked out by the people behind him.

"Tie up the son, and don't allow him to come out without my permission." Su Rou has arranged the people to marry in the mansion in the past few days just in case.

"But what should the people left behind by the Hou Ye find out?"

Before, because the prince didn't want others to know about Su Rou's collision with the pillar, the news was restricted, but once the prince didn't appear, Hou Ye's people would soon find out that something was wrong, and they wouldn't be able to stop Hou Ye's people at that time.

"It's okay, I believe my mother won't delay it for too long, and the third brother's family is reluctant to ask my brother to stay in prison for too long." Su Rou didn't want to do this either, but she believed that Zhong Lishu would be grateful to her in the future.

Su Xizhu looked at the time, no one from the Hou Mansion came, Su Xizhu's originally expectant eyes gradually extinguished, and Chang'an, who had been waiting for news outside, only shook his head vaguely at joy when he returned to the courtyard.

"Okay, don't be so careful, I'm actually mentally prepared." Although Su Xizhu said this, there was also a faint sourness in his heart.

Although Su Xizhu has regarded Zhong Lishu as her brother since she was a child, since she gradually discovered that Zhong Lishu likes her, since she knew that the family intended to let her and Zhong Lishu kiss each other, Su Xizhu has changed her mind, she accepted the marriage of her cousin and sister, and accepted the fact that Zhong Lishu would be her future husband.

Who knew that when she accepted everything and began to gradually convert her relationship with Zhong Lishu from family to love, she was suddenly told that she and Zhong Lishu had no future, which is funny to think about.

Su Xizhu touched the corner of her eyes, it was a little wet, maybe she didn't fall in love with Zhong Lishu, but she liked it really, but the flower of love between her and Zhong Lishu had just broken the ground and had withered before it bloomed.

"Don't wait, I'm going to rest, you guys go down."

"What's going on? Why didn't Master Cousin come? He obviously likes Miss so much? Could it be that the likes of the young master in the past were all fake? Chang'an said with tears streaming down his face.

"No, it's true that my cousin likes me, but maybe in my cousin's heart, no matter how much he likes me, he can't compare to the mother who gave birth to him and raised him, and my cousin couldn't get my eldest aunt to agree, so he really gave up on me."

Su Xizhu comforted herself, it's not that she is not good enough, it's not that Zhong Lishu doesn't like her, it's just that there is always something more important than love in this life, and she was just given up

That's it.

That night, Su Xizhu lay on the bed thinking about the bits and pieces she had been with Zhong Lishu since she was a child, and she found that she didn't complain about him, because they had never been together in the first place, and even compared to herself, Zhong Lishu had paid more, there was no right or wrong between her and Zhong Lishu, only missing.

"Daddy, I have something I want to tell you." Su Xizhu went to his parents' yard early in the morning, and looking at his parents, who were obviously in poor spirits, Su Xizhu was even more convinced of his decision.

"Sister Zhu, we don't agree." Su Che guessed what his daughter wanted to say and refused directly, although he felt sorry for his son, he didn't want to use his daughter to compromise, and Su Che was already thinking of a way, maybe he could save his son without relying on the Hou Mansion.

"Daddy, I made a decision after careful consideration, don't object to it first, listen to me." Su Xizhu interrupted what Su Che was about to say and sat opposite his parents.

"Aside from anything else, the eldest brother-in-law's character father and mother also know that no matter from birth or talent and appearance, it is actually the eldest brother-in-law who has been wronged when I give my eldest brother-in-law as a step-room, so I can marry into the Dingguo Mansion, in fact, it is really as my grandmother said, it is to burn high incense.

In fact, think about it, if the eldest brother-in-law's wife is not the eldest sister but another noble daughter, if he wants to continue the string, and my grandmother wants me to go, then my father and mother should not object, right? ”

Su Che and Jiang glanced at each other, indeed, if Han Zhan's wife was not Sister Mei but someone else, the two of them would not object, because Han Zhan was worth it.

"Sister Zhu, you are right, then you must be able to understand why your father and mother are so opposed, not because of Han Zhan, not because he has children and daughters, but because his wife is your lobby sister.

If you marry in the past, then Sister Zhu, you are not a simple stepfamily, Brother Chen needs your care, your uncle's family does not want you to replace Sister Mei's position, and even as a mother's family, once you and Brother Chen's interests conflict, I am afraid we will not help you.

Sister Zhu, if someone else marries Han Zhan as a steproom, she is just a steproom, she can even be vicious, but if the girl from our Annan Hou Mansion goes to be a steproom, it will be a tool, and even her mother's family will guard against you. ”

How difficult it is for a woman to marry without the help of her mother's family Su Che can guess even if he is a man, so he is reluctant, reluctant to live like that with his pampered daughter.

Su Che looked at her daughter and shook her head, Jiang Shi was also full of distress, but she didn't speak, because she didn't know what to say, and strongly objected? What about the son? Agree? How difficult is the daughter's road in the future, the palms of her hands and the backs of her hands are full of meat, and Jiang's heart is like being cut by someone's knife.

"Dad, you don't know how smart I am, no matter who I marry, I will live a good life, and I don't covet the title of Duke of Dingguo, and I have no stake in Brother Chen, I will be good to that child, and I won't make it difficult for my mother's family."

When I have biological children in the future, I will teach them well, and I will let them get everything they want by virtue of their own ability, and I will get along well with the prince of Dingguo, and I can be filial to my parents and take care of my children, so I can live a very happy life, so don't worry, father, mother, go and tell my grandmother, let my brother come out. ”

Su Che wanted to say something but was stopped by the Jiang family, she looked at Su Xizhu and asked, "Sister Zhu, will you really be very happy?" ”

My daughter didn't like it since she was a child

The concubine also made it clear that the husband in the future is not allowed to take concubines, but the prince of Dingguo even has a concubine and a concubine, and a noble concubine, can the daughter really live well?

If it is Zhong Lishu, with years of affection, he will not take a concubine, if it is not Zhong Lishu, then she and her husband will choose a low-status daughter for her, and she will not be allowed to take a concubine at that time, but if the other party is the prince of Dingguo, where can they help their daughter, it is useless for them to be parents.

"Yes." Su Xizhu nodded, she would work hard for her happiness.

"Sister Zhu, it's your father and mother who are sorry for you, and it's your brother who is sorry for you."

Jiang covered her face and cried, she obviously had so many worries, but now she couldn't ask, she was sorry for her daughter. Su Che didn't speak, just looked at his painful wife and the daughter who smiled and promised him, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

Old Madam Qi already knew that they had made a decision when she saw Su Che, but after watching her youngest son turn around and leave after finishing his business, Old Madam Qi still sighed.

"Sister Zhu's dowry, we are preparing a copy in private."

Zhang was overjoyed when he heard the news from his mother-in-law, and immediately asked people to pass the news to Su Ximei.

Zhong Lishu woke up soon after being knocked unconscious, he didn't make a lot of noise as Su Rou guessed, but was uncharacteristically silent, he just looked at the ceiling quietly, without any reaction to the outside world, and didn't drink water to eat, although Su Rou was worried, but he didn't let Zhong Lishu go.

The next day, Su Rou received news from her mother's family that the Hou Mansion of Annan had decided to let Sister Zhu give the prince of Dingguo as the stepmother, as long as Sister Mei said that the prince of Dingguo would be the prince, this marriage would be a certainty, even if the prince of Dingguo did not agree, after so many things, Sister Zhu would not marry her son again, Su Rou was finally relieved.

"Brother Shu, your third uncle has agreed to Sister Zhu's future marriage to the Dingguo Mansion, you and Sister Zhu are impossible, Brother Shu, you listen to your mother's words, I let you go, you eat and study well, don't go to Sister Zhu, when you marry the princess, you will know that your mother is good for you, and you will be grateful to your mother."

Su Rou looked at Zhong Lishu and asked him to loosen his ties without reacting, but he also prevented Zhong Lishu from suddenly breaking up and leaving, but Zhong Lishu still didn't react, and only after a while did he get up and wash and eat under the service of Xiao Si, who had just been released from the firewood room, but he didn't say a word or glance at Su Rou during the whole process.

Did Zhong Lishu hate Su Rou when he heard that Su Xizhu might marry the prince of Dingguo? Do you hate your cousin for using the matter of asking your brother to calculate your cousin? Do you hate your grandmother's partiality?

hate, but he hates himself even more, he is very cowardly, he hates himself for being stupid, he hates himself for giving up, and he hates himself for cutting off his marriage with Su Xizhu.

Su Rou watched Zhong Lishu go to the study to read after eating, and felt that it was really her son, and he would not be hit because of his little love.

On the other side, Su Ximei received a long sigh of relief from her mother's news, she could persuade Han Zhan with a definite candidate, Su Ximei knew that she couldn't wait long, her energy was getting less and less recently, and she had to settle things before she died, and she must not let He Ruge take her place.
