Chapter XXVIII

"Brother and sister, look at my sister-in-law, she is obviously only in her twenties, but she looks older than she actually is, it can be seen that life is not very satisfactory, even if it is Mrs. Hou, what can she do, her husband doesn't like it, no matter how beautiful her face is, only she knows what the lining is like, hehe."

In fact, Su Rou does not look old, after all, she is a noble lady and does not have money, so she is also very willing to spend money on maintenance, but she is never slack off, but her expression is a little mean, and there is always a sense of depression and anger when the relationship between husband and wife is not smooth.

Jiang listened to Zhou's more and more unreliable words, and he couldn't even say it, and he didn't even dare to look at Zhou, Zhou also reacted, his face was a little ugly, after all, she was also the kind of person that her husband didn't like.

"My sister-in-law is filial, for the sake of my father-in-law's filial piety, it is normal to be haggard, just raise it." Jiang Shi gave a step.

"Hey, Su Rou's temper hasn't changed at all, I see that except for my sister-in-law and Sister Mei, she probably doesn't look down on us, although Brother Shu looks very good, but who will be the daughter-in-law as a daughter-in-law in the future is estimated to be the only one who knows."

At the intersection, Zhou left with a smile, she intended to marry her daughter to Zhong Lishu, but it is estimated that the resistance is not small, especially Sister Zhu is also the right age, so she has to ring the alarm bell for Jiang and try to eliminate a potential enemy.

As for Zhou's Dan, is he worried that Sister Lan doesn't like Su Rou? Zhou is not worried, she believes that as long as her daughter can grasp Zhong Li's heart, then Su Rou will not matter, after all, Su Rou only has one son, and she is no better than her only son.

Zhou looked at Jiang from the corner of her eyes, didn't she always say that her daughter just had to marry someone who loved her and didn't care about her family background? Now let her see if Jiang is really as high as she said?

Listening to Zhou's words, Jiang was a little stunned, but soon understood, her face showed embarrassment, she really didn't want to kiss her sister-in-law, after all, after a woman gets married, getting along with her mother-in-law is no less important than her husband, and her daughter is like that, it is estimated that her sister-in-law will not look down on it, and it will not be too easy for her mother-in-law to grind her daughter-in-law at that time, but it is a pity that Brother Shu is indeed outstanding.

Jiang shook his head, feeling that they were all thinking too far, there were still five or six years before Sister Zhu could say that she was married, she was not in a hurry, anyway, she didn't expect her daughter to marry highly, she was rich, and her daughter was the daughter of the Hou Mansion, so it would be better to marry a small family.

Jiang thought about her husband and felt that it was better to ventilate with him, and the daughter of the province would be inexplicably married in the future.

After all, Su Rou wanted to go back to the Hou Mansion of Changping, so after dinner, she heard that the Hou Mansion had cleaned up and went back with her son, although the old lady wanted to leave Zhong Lishu behind, but Su Rou didn't want her son to be in her mother's house, although the nieces and nephews were not very old, but they still had to take precautions.

When Changping Hou returned to Beijing, he came to visit Annan Houfu, Su Xizhu had no impression of this uncle, but looked at his uncle who was a little cold, Su Xizhu was very emotional.

Cousin Big Tree has grown like this, and it is indeed the result of his own efforts. From the womb, he took all the advantages of his father and mother, so his appearance and his outstanding appearance. Under the influence of the cold father and the arrogant mother, the long and moist jade is his own credit.

The old lady mentioned that she was worried about her daughter and hoped that her daughter would have another child, but Chang Pinghou only responded politely, but she didn't think so. Although he hopes to borrow the power of the Dingguo Mansion, it is not the only way, Su Rou can be so decent because she gave birth to a good son, but that's all, let Chang Pinghou and Su Rou have a child, he feels that he can't do it.

The old lady looked at her uncle's cold and favorable face, and felt a little unhappy in her heart, but she felt sorry for Su Rou in the end, so she said that she would try her best to help Changping Houfu, although Changping Hou was dissatisfied with his wife, but he didn't have too many negative emotions about the Yue family, so it was a success.

The old lady watched her aunt's family leave worriedly, and sighed again and again in her heart, but she really had no choice, in the early years, she also wanted her daughter to choose someone who believed in her aunt to be her aunt, and let her deal with others, but unfortunately her daughter refused, and now she has no way to intervene, and the old lady can only pray that Brother Shu will inherit the Changping Marquis Mansion smoothly.

Soon, Su Ximei's ceremony arrived, and the Hou Mansion began to get busy again. Su Xizhu couldn't help much when she was young, so in addition to watching everyone work every day, she ate and drank well and hugged Dabai to play, until she heard about something.

Because of Su Ximei's marriage contract, there are many people who want to participate in this ceremony, especially some jobs that can show their faces at the ceremony, and many people want to get it. This originally had nothing to do with Su Xizhu, but he couldn't stand the pot from the sky.

The reason is that the Zhou family in the second room fell in love with Su Ximei and the position of the praiser on the ceremony, so he brought it up on the spot when he asked the old lady to say goodbye in the morning.

"Mother, Sister Mei's ceremony is almost ready, it stands to reason that my aunt shouldn't interject, but isn't it a little bad to not choose any sister in the family for all positions? I don't know, do you think that our junior sisters in the Hou Mansion are not compatible? ”

Thinking of this, Zhou's heart suppressed her anger, she had told her sister-in-law about it before, saying that she wanted Sister Lan to be a praiser for Sister Mei, who knew that the sister-in-law would deal with the past on the surface, but in fact, the sister-in-law was selected for the praiser, but the sister-in-law was set to be a niece, which made Zhou how capable.

Sister Mei's ceremony and its scenery, Zhengbin is the Duchess of Dingguo, Sister Mei's future mother-in-law, Yousi is Sister Mei's handkerchief, the daughter of the Shangshu family of the Ministry of Rites, how should the praiser be left to his own sisters, what does it mean to give a cousin with a foreign surname?

Although her sister Lan is still young, it is good to be able to leave a good impression on other ladies on this occasion, who knows that the sister-in-law is dedicated to her mother's family, Zhou feels that the old lady can turn a blind eye to other things, but the married daughter-in-law must not bear this matter towards her mother's family. Sure enough, after Zhou finished speaking, the old lady above had a bad face.

Mrs. Hou's face turned cold when she heard Zhou say this, but she did not reply to Zhou's words, but directly turned her eyes to the old lady to reply.

"Mother, it's not that I miss my mother's family, it's just that Sister Mei and Lu Li are big things after all, especially Zhengbin is Sister Mei's mother-in-law, I'm afraid that there will be flaws, try to be perfect, if Sister Zhu is a few years older, I will definitely choose her, but Sister Zhu is only eight years old, once something is wrong, it will affect Sister Mei and Lu Li, not to mention, it will not be good for her reputation.

That's why I chose my niece, after all, she is fourteen years old, the right age, and my niece has reached the age of marriage, she has a good relationship with Sister Mei, if she can marry a good family, she and Sister Mei can also help each other in the past few years. ”

Although the cousins are not as good as their cousins, they are also real relatives, the key is that the other party is just the right age, and it is really powerful to Sister Mei if they get it right, so Zhang's words made the anger in the old lady's heart disappear a lot.

Jiang Shi was stunned when he listened to it, didn't he say that he was talking about Sister Lan, how could he mention Sister Zhu? She hasn't touched this heart. Zhou glared at Jiang, okay, I thought she really didn't care about anything, so she also found Zhang in private to talk to her.

"Brother and sister, why didn't you tell me about Sister Zhu's intention to be a praiser, otherwise I would never have gone to my sister-in-law to dislike people." In the face of Zhou's cynicism, Jiang put down his teacup.

"I didn't mention it."

"Yes, the third brother and sister didn't say it, but Sister Mei wants to bring her own sisters, of course it should be the daughter-in-law, the second brother and sister, don't you say?" Zhang sneered, even if Sister Lan is a few years older, it is impossible for her to choose her, a concubine who is a concubine is also worthy of her daughter to be a praiser?

"Just like Sister Zhu, sister-in-law is not afraid of guest jokes." Zhou's brain blurted out, this is also the reason why she was confident, after all, she thought that Zhang had to choose a sister of her own, and her daughter was much better than that fat girl.

Sister Ju is too young is not a threat, Sister Lan and Sister Zhu will choose Sister Lan personally, although her husband is a concubine, but she is indeed an official body, and the future is immeasurable, how can it be much better than the third brother who is only obsessed with calligraphy and painting, especially Sister Zhu is eight years old, and she is still round, Zhou doesn't believe that Zhang will choose her, so Zhou is confident, who knows that Zhang is so desperate?

"Zhou, is this what you should say as an aunt? Hmph, after Sister Mei and the ceremony, you will copy the female precept a hundred times, and you are not allowed to leave the house until you finish copying. The old lady looked at Zhou coldly, Zhou shrank for a moment, didn't dare to respond, just looked at Jiang with hatred.

The third lady Jiang sighed, knowing that she was angry, and Sister Zhu also became the eldest sister-in-law's knife to deal with the second sister-in-law, although Jiang had a good temper, but she couldn't be bullied, so she looked at Zhang and said.

"Sister-in-law, don't worry, since you are optimistic about Sister Zhu, then I will thank Sister Zhu for Sister Zhu, sister-in-law, don't worry, Sister Zhu will definitely not lose the face of our Annan Hou Mansion."

Zhang's face stiffened, how could she have already told her mother's family, how could she change it, how could she go back and tell her sister-in-law?

"Brother and sister, I've already talked to my mother's family about this." Zhang's voice was a little weak.

"Oh, it turns out that my sister-in-law didn't think about Sister Zhu at all, it turned out that I misunderstood what my sister-in-law meant, and I thought your niece was the next best thing." Jiang took another sip of tea, and Zhang pulled the corners of his mouth without speaking.

"Since it's already booked, you don't need to change it, your sister-in-law in the province has no face in her mother's house." The old lady glanced at the eldest lady, although she was a little dissatisfied with her wanting to make a face for her mother's family, but in the end she still agreed with Zhang's words.

"I still have a box of Dongzhu there, let's make some clothes for Sister Zhu." Mrs. Qi considered that her eldest granddaughter Su Ximei couldn't lose the face of the eldest lady because of this incident, but Sister Zhu was also her granddaughter, and she was sweet and likable, so the old lady also gave her some compensation.

"I still have some tribute satin there, the color is too tender, Sister Mei can't wear it, and giving it to Sister Zhu is also a little bit of my aunt's heart."

Although Zhang was a little reluctant, he also knew that the old lady was giving her face, even if the matter was over, but when she looked at Zhou, her face was full of sarcasm.
