Chapter 233: No Choice
As soon as Suning'er returned to Su Mansion, Shuang'er came over in a panic to lead the horses for her, and muttered: "Yiniang, you go in quickly, the eldest lady and Ah Lang are waiting in the guest hall." ”
Suning'er felt a pang in her heart, looked at Shuang'er, and asked a little uneasily, "Old lady Zhao is gone?" ”
"Old lady Zhao is gone", Shuang'er pouted: "But the eldest lady and Ah Lang seem to be a little unhappy." ”
Suning'er nodded hesitantly and slowly walked towards the courtyard.
When they arrived at the guest hall, they saw Qi and Su Jingduan sitting in the hall, with gloomy faces and not saying a word.
Suning'er pressed her steps and moved closer, but before she could reach the two of them, Su Jing suddenly made a voice and stopped her: "A-Ning, you stop." ”
Suning'er's body trembled slightly, and she immediately stood in place, not daring to move.
Su Jing said in a sullen voice, "Where did you go just now?" ”
Su Ning'er deliberately put her hands behind her back and replied calmly: "Back to the second uncle, Ning'er has been in this courtyard for a long time, and only then did she go out to breathe." ”
"You still have to quibble", Su Jing stood up suddenly, his eyes bulging: "Do you think that now that you have been canonized as a saint, you won't dare to discipline you as an uncle?" ”
Su Ning'er smiled stiffly, and looked at Qi again, but she didn't expect that she, who had always been amiable, was also solemn at the moment, and had no intention of exculpating herself at all.
Su Ning'er had to answer truthfully and obediently: "Second uncle, where does Zhao Yuanbai want to come to the mansion to propose marriage sincerely, he just wants to take advantage of the danger of others to be ashamed." ”
"Hu Jacket", Su Jing reprimanded angrily: "Old lady Zhao personally came to the door to ask for this family business, and she was sincere, but you want to accuse others, this is not your temperament." ”
"He's sincere?" , Su Ning'er was very angry when he thought about his words: "I didn't see it, he just felt that I was now an abandoned woman and wanted to deliberately humiliate me." ”
"Don't talk nonsense", Su Jing's eyebrows frowned, and he looked even more annoyed: "You have been withdrawn from the Qingwang Mansion several times, although other families respect our Su family on their faces, but no one dares to come to the door to discuss marriage, Yuan Bai has been single-minded to you from beginning to end, what are you not satisfied with, a daughter's family ran out of the house by herself in front of the elders, it is really too unorthodox, I still praise you as the most knowledgeable on weekdays, and you set an example for your younger brothers and sisters like this?" ”
Suning'er was speechless for a moment.
She did something wrong in this matter, but the Zhao family came to propose marriage without warning, which completely confused her, and she made this move in a hurry, and was questioned by Su Jing, she knew that she was at a loss, and she could only bear it.
But in any case, she didn't want to agree to a family affair in a daze.
Su Jing said again: "A-Ning, you have also done the ceremony, you should understand the sophistication of human feelings, now your uncompetitive sister can only be stuffed in the yard all day long, and we have been so worried that we can't sleep all night, do you also want to be like your sister, stay in this courtyard for the rest of your life?" ”
Su Ning'er muttered: "If you can do this, Ning'er thinks it's not bad." ”
"You ........"
"Second uncle", Su Ning'er said coquettishly: "Although the Zhao family is not a noble family, it is also a prestigious family, Ning'er is in such a situation now, marrying into the Zhao family, there is nothing to live in peace in the future." ”
"You don't have to quibble anymore", Su Jing said sharply: "This family matter, your mother and I both think it is very appropriate, although you have the canonization of holy rao, but you are not a royal family after all, those official eunuchs we can't afford to climb, but to be able to marry a family like the Zhao family is also a good match, you can enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of your life, so that your mother can be relieved, and your father's spirit can rest in peace." ”
Seeing that he was so decisive, Suning'er seemed to have no room for negotiation, and there was nowhere to vent the pain in her stomach, so she could only look at Qi with pity and pleaded: "Auntie, you promised Ning'er that you would no longer force Ning'er to get married." ”
Qi Shi stared at her and shook his head with a firm gaze.
Su Jing waved his hand impatiently: "Sister-in-law, Ah Ning's girl is really getting more and more unreasonable now, you have looked at this family matter carefully, it's not that I want to make it difficult for her, sister-in-law, you can also persuade Ah Ning, I will send someone to Zhao's house to reply to the letter in the next few days." ”
With that, he resolutely walked towards the door.
Su Ning'er was still unwilling to beg: "Second uncle, let's discuss this matter again, you are now a royal clan, how can you show favor to Natian Shelang." ”
"Ning'er."
Hearing Qi's call, Suning'er immediately turned her head and saw that she was looking at herself deeply, her eyes full of dissatisfaction.
"Ning'er, what's wrong with you now, you have been looking forward to marrying Yuan Bai earlier, why are you so reluctant now that your second uncle is in charge of you?"
Qi stood up, pulled her to him, sat down again, gently stroked her palm, and said softly: "A-Niang is not trying to force you this time, after so many things, A-Niang can see that Yuan Bai is sincere to you, and put you in his hands, A-Niang can rest assured." ”
"But, Auntie, Ning'er and I ......", Suning'er was hesitant, and it was really difficult to talk about some hardships in her heart.
Qi said with a smile: "I'm afraid you're really like your second uncle, you're getting more and more naughty, Yuan Bai is smart, and considerate to you, and now he's only twenty years old, but with his own wisdom, he just broke through in Chang'an City in just one year, but it's really young and promising, you will marry in the future, let's persuade him to fight for fame, it will not be a problem." ”
After a pause, she continued: "Just now, you are worried about the elders of the Zhao family, you don't have to worry about this matter, Ning'er, A-Niang has also thought about it carefully, although the Zhao family has several rooms, but now in the entire Zhao family, the old lady Zhao is the one who can really be the master, as long as Yuan Bai is facing you and has the acquiescence of the old lady, your marriage will only be more successful." ”
Suning'er knew that this matter was not good and then refuted Qi's.
At the beginning, she stubbornly insisted on sticking to her agreement with King Qing, and finally ended up like today, which not only added to her worries, but also made the entire Su Mansion a laughing stock.
What kind of face did she have to reason with this woman?
Maybe Zhao Yuanbai did come to ask for marriage out of sincerity, but she was very angry when she thought of his proud posture today.
If she had to marry the Zhao family, she didn't think it was a big deal, but she felt that Zhao Yuanbai's way of expressing herself made it a little difficult for her to adapt.
And the Qi family strengthened the idea in his heart, and he had to obey his daughter to accept this family business no matter what.
But she was worried that her daughter would not understand her hard work, and no matter how bad the mother and daughter cared about, she said patiently:
"A-Niang has never hoped that Ning'er will be able to marry any prominent door, I only hope that A-Niang will not be there in the future, and there will be someone by Ning'er's side who can know the warmth and take care of you in place of A-Niang, so A-Niang will be content."
Su Ning'er's heart suddenly soured, she pursed the corners of her lips, and almost burst into tears.
She is naturally clear about Qi's original intention, and she is by no means like Zhou's, who only thinks about climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, and completely ignores her own feelings.
"In the past, although Ah Niang thought about letting the Lang family Lang in, but it was just a helpless move, if there was a better portal, who would think about this way, your second uncle's is also reasonable, now the saint is lifting you, after all, Ning'er, you are not his blood relative, he can't protect you all his life, having a husband who can rely on is the thing that our women's family looks forward to the most in their lives."
The Qi family tried their best to explain the truth as clearly, and Suning'er listened to it, even if she was unwilling in her heart, she could only accept this family business.
