Chapter 5: Favoritism

"Mother."

Su Jixu walked in from the outside, and after standing still, he said in a somewhat helpless tone: "Don't listen to him, Wan'er has been taken by him to climb the dog hole, if you protect him like this, he will have to poke a hole in the sky next time." ”

As soon as this remark came out.

Su Tao's shoulders shrunk.

He is naughty and naughty, all out of nature, but in fact, the rules of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion are quite strict, every move, and demeanor are all recorded in black and white on the family motto.

The second uncle's family has Su Heng and Su Qi brothers and sisters.

They have Su Juan as the faΓ§ade, and the three of them take one out casually, which is enough to be the template of the prince and the noble girl in the capital.

Even if the idea of climbing the dog hole today was proposed by my sister.

But even Su Tao himself felt that he had led Su Juan astray, and he muttered a few words, but he didn't dare to refute it, his eyes looked at his nose, his nose looked at his heart, and he hid behind his grandmother more and more as if he had softened his bones.

The more he hid.

The more angry Su Jixu became.

hatefully scolded: "Why did I give birth to such a son as you, look at your cousin Su Heng, that is a real good man, you, you, you were also born in the Hou Mansion of Wu'an, why is it like losing a bone?" ”

If he scolds something else.

Su Tao's left ear went in, his right ear came out, and the hippie smile passed, but when he mentioned Su Heng, Su Tao hated what he hated the most was that someone compared himself to his cousin, and one wanted to hold it to the sky, and the other wanted to step into the mud.

His face sank.

Suddenly, he sat up straight, looked at his father's yin and yang and said, "If you really like your cousin, just take him as a son, anyway, you have always looked down on me, and I am very tired of giving your son." ”

"What are you talking about, little bunny?"

Su Jixu was already angry.

It's just that because the mother and daughter are present, it's not easy to teach a lesson, so I was angry on my mouth, but I didn't expect Su Tao to dare to fight back, the more I grew up, the more disobedient I became.

He was angry, but also disappointed.

Seeing that Su Tao also hated and stared at him, he was even more distressed, shook his head and said: "Rotten wood can't be carved, how did I give birth to such a son as you?" ”

Su Jixu was completely disappointed.

He didn't have the intention of continuing his education for Su Tao, as if he had completely given up on him, he sighed three times at his son, flicked his sleeves, and simply strode out of the inner room.

After he left.

Mrs. Su sensed that something was wrong, pushed her grandson, and urged: "Where is the overnight feud between father and son, bow your head to your father, admit your mistake, and his anger will disappear, why don't you go quickly?" ”

"No, no."

Su Tao refused simply.

The man stood up, looked at the back of his father leaving, hesitated, but finally hugged his arms and said with a cold face: "Anyway, in his heart, Su Heng's fart is fragrant, and what I do is a waste, in this case, why do you use a hot face to stick to his cold ass?" ”

He turned to his grandmother and said, "My grandson still has a banquet to eat, so I won't accompany you, let my sister talk to you more." ”

After speaking.

Su Tao also turned to leave.

"Hey, hey."

Mrs. Su didn't finish her words, so she had to put down her hand dejectedly and sighed: "This father and son really had a feud in their previous life, and they were wronged. ”

Su Juan served the tea.

After the grandmother drank it and calmed down a bit, she took out the jade pendant and said, "Grandmother, I don't want to divorce the eldest prince." ”

"Huh?"

Old Madam Su glanced at her in surprise.

showed a look of disapproval, but did not immediately refute, but after a moment of silence, he took her hand and asked: "Do you know the current situation of the eldest prince, if this marriage contract is not returned in time, the Houfu will keep you for another three or four years at most, and then you should be married." ”

Su Juan is still a year away.

Kyoto is rich, and the slightly more decent nobles want to keep their daughters for an extra year or two to show their favor and dignity, but the age of a woman's marriage is generally not more than seventeen or eighteen.

In addition, before the real wedding, the mother's family needs to prepare a dowry, notify the guests, set a banquet and other trivial things, with the size of the Wu'an Hou Mansion, it is a joke not to prepare for this for half a year.

If you withdraw from the marriage in time this year.

Wait for a year, let the limelight pass, Mrs. Su can choose a good son-in-law for her granddaughter again, and the dowry banquet can also be prepared decently, but if it is delayed until next year, in order to wait for the limelight to pass, it will be delayed for another year, whether Su Juan is considered an old girl is two words, the main thing is that the son of the capital of the right age, at that time, there is a high probability that others will be decided.

And if you really choose not to divorce.

Old Mrs. Su thought of this possibility, and couldn't help but feel worried, since ancient times, the heavenly family has little family affection, and the brothers of the same mother and compatriots can fight for your life and death, not to mention that the eldest prince and the fourth prince are still half-brothers.

One day, the four princes ascended the throne.

What kind of attitude will be towards this eldest brother who used to be a prince, and what will be disposed of, you can imagine.

"Grandmother."

Su Juan sat upright on the other side, pondered the words and said: "No matter what the eldest prince says, he is also the emperor's son, even if he is disgusted, but we are so bold in withdrawing from the marriage, isn't it a slap in the face of the royal family?" ”

Hear the words.

Old Madam Su was taken aback.

She only thought that the emperor favored Concubine Yao, and in order to promote the fourth prince Zhou Xiuhong, she did not hesitate to abolish Zhou Xiuyan's crown prince, so she must not like this eldest son.

But after being reminded by Su Juan, I remembered that the prince who was not favored was also the son of the emperor.

The emperor can take it from life or death.

Not with outsiders.

"Wan'er, it's still thoughtful for you, I'll discuss it with your father when I go back, since I got this jade pendant back, let's put it in your hands first." Old Madam Su nodded, and only then did she feel afraid.

She wanted to test the attitude of the eldest prince by returning the token.

But he didn't take into account one thing, if the big prince was angered by this move, he directly broke the net and complained to the emperor, even if their Wu'an Marquis Mansion was not punished, its reputation would be greatly damaged.

We still have to think twice about this.

Seeing that her grandmother had a change of heart, Su Juan put away the jade pendant, took a deep breath, and then brought up another matter: "By the way, grandmother, I want to learn housekeeping." ”

"Butler?"

Mrs. Su took a sip of tea, and her face showed embarrassment: "I only promised the girl in the second room last year, and when she is married this year, she will learn the art of housekeeping, why do you also think of this stubble?" ”

The girl in the second room in her mouth refers to Su Juan's second uncle's daughter, Su Qi, but just from the title, it can be seen that although they are all granddaughters, it is obvious that Su Juan, who was raised single-handedly, is more preferred by her.

But preference is preference.

Mrs. Su is not confused, Su Qi only started to learn housekeeping this year, so she stuffed a Su Juan into it, didn't she deliberately slap Su Qi's face, and no one would feel comfortable in her heart.

So he didn't let go.

Su Juan didn't know this.

In her previous life, before the fall of the Marquis of Wu'an, she lived a carefree life, she was not very close to the second uncle's family, and she didn't care about what her cousin Su Qi was doing, so she didn't know that Su Qi had actually started to learn housekeeping.
