Chapter 9: Resignation
Su Xiaoxiao saw that she didn't ask her anymore, so she silently looked at the people in this room, and Shen had mentioned everything about Su Mansion to her.
In her last life, she developed the habit of seeing more and not talking much.
Su Xian's appearance is outstanding among people of his age, and his temperament seems to be a person who can read.
According to the ancient seating order, sitting in the first place closest to Su Xian should be the eldest lady Lin, with phoenix eyes and melon seed face, looking at it makes Su Xiaoxiao feel embarrassed, it is said that the mother's family is a salt merchant and is very rich.
The second aunt Lu Shi, Shen Mo said that the Lu family only entered the house one year earlier than his own mother, and his mother's father was still a general, but it was a pity that he died early. Jia Zhongluo was carried into the Su Mansion at this time, his appearance is quite standard, but his temperament seems to be different from his daughter Su Manning, he is relatively quiet, and he has never spoken from beginning to end.
Next, the third aunt Qiu Shi, whom Su Xian just brought in, used to be the top brand of a certain Fengyue Building, and she looked like she was in her early twenties, with apricot eyes and peach cheeks, but she was beautiful.
Then there was Su Manning, who was sitting next to Su Xiaoxiao, since she entered the house, she had been playing with the handkerchief in her hand, which would be very well-behaved.
On the opposite side sat the eldest brother Su Ming, and when he saw Su Xiaoxiao looking over, he also nodded politely.
The third brother, Su Zhe, is very active when he looks at it, he is not sitting particularly upright, and he is leaning sideways to tease the youngest brother Su An next to him.
Except for Su Xiaoxiao, who was surprised when she first came in, no one would pay attention to her anymore.
In this era of male superiority and female sorrow, it must be a good thing that a girl without a backer is not good-looking, and the best ending is to marry a famous nobleman as a concubine, and I don't know how many rooms it is.
As far as Su Xiaoxiao is concerned, he is still a little unclear, and there is no hope.
Su Xiaoxiao silently retracted her gaze, she knew that in this Su family, she was just a dispensable little transparent.
didn't have any ideas, and learned from Su Manning next to him to play with the handkerchief in his hand.
"Okay, let's go back if it's okay, I have something to tell my mother."
Everyone seemed to be very used to this kind of ending, and they just saluted and didn't say anything to each other, and then they dispersed.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't think that it would end so quickly, and on the way back to the hospital, she was thinking about what she was going to do while walking.
"Su Xiaoxiao! Don't go yet, I have something to tell you! ”
Su Xiaoxiao turned around, only to see Su Manning running up in a hurry, grabbed her hand, and pulled it to the rockery next to her.
She was almost dragged and stumbled, but fortunately, Xiao Yuyan quickly held it up, and then bent Su Manning fiercely.
Su Manning didn't care, and pulled Su Xiaoxiao to sit on the stone bench at the rockery in the garden, and she sat facing each other at this time.
"Hey, Su Xiaoxiao, didn't you notice that someone didn't come today?"
Su Manning's whole body was lying on the stone table, and when she moved forward, Su Xiaoxiao saw a face magnified several times, staring at her with a thief expression.
"Is it the third sister?"
Su Manning sat back on the stone bench, clasped his hands on his chest, and squinted at Su Xiaoxiao.
"Doesn't look like you're stupid!"
You're stupid! Su Xiaoxiao muttered in her heart and didn't speak.
"Forget it, I'll tell you about it, I see that you are quite pitiful, just like you. I don't know anything, I can't tell the difference between the bad guys and the good guys, and I'm careful that there are not even bones left after being eaten. ”
Su Xiaoxiao: "..."
"You haven't seen Su Yingxue, you love to act, you are at home and you are the same when you go out. Last year's Lantern Festival made her meet the eldest son of the Wu family, who was the eldest son of the famous academy family! Do you know about prestigious colleges? ”
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head, how could she know.
"You don't know! That day, Su Yingxue hooked up with Wu Gongzi, Su Yingxue would recite poetry for a while, paint for a while, and give her handkerchief to others. ”
As soon as he thought of the events of that day, Su Manning became angry! She was next to her that day, and she couldn't do anything, so she could only do it in a hurry!
Su Xiaoxiao saw that Su Manning was about to break the handkerchief in his hand......
She kind of knows, and the two of them have fallen in love with that Wu Gongzi.
The fire of gossip in my heart is burning!
"And after that?"
Su Manning came back to his senses and then continued indignantly:
"Huh, then? They are looking at each other, but who is Wu Gongzi, and she is also worthy of Su Yingxue? People have long had a marriage contract with Miss Yan of the Prime Minister's Mansion. ”
Prime minister? That's a big official, Su Xiaoxiao was surprised.
Xiao Yu next to her asked for her: "Is Shengming Academy very powerful?" The concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion should be able to marry the prince, right? ”
Su Xiaoxiao gave Xiaoyu an approving look.
Su Manning glanced at Xiao Yu and did not dwell on her faux pas, and said:
"Awesome? That is the Royal Academy, where the royal relatives go to school, they will not accept it if they are not well-educated, and Su Xueying still wants to marry Wu Gongzi, which is simply whimsical. ”
Su Xiaoxiao was a little confused: "Who is the third sister?" ”
Xiao Yu inquired about the affairs of the house yesterday, and it is said that his third sister was divorced and is thinking about it behind closed doors...
"My father set her a family affair in Nanping Houfu as early as when she was ten years old, and I am really ashamed to go out to hook up with other men even though I know that I have a marriage contract!"
Su Manning smiled disdainfully and continued:
In the end, of course, the matter was revealed, and within a few days, he came to the door to give him a leave. The eldest lady spent a lot of money to put things down, and it's good to have a rich grandfather, don't you say? ”
Su Xiaoxiao understood that Su Yingxue could not be a high-ranking concubine, and she was divorced, and it is estimated that she was grounded.
"If you come to me tomorrow, I'll take you to see Su Yingxue, remember! I'll go back first. ”
After Su Manning finished speaking, he hurried away with his maid.
Xiao Yu looked at Su Manning's back as he walked away, and said worriedly:
"Girl, I always feel that these four girls have to make some noise, or you will pretend to be sick tomorrow or something, don't go?"
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head and replied helplessly:
"I'm afraid they'll carry me."
Because of the relationship in her previous life, she has some insights in observing human nature.
Next...
After hastily having lunch, Su Xiaoxiao took out the small porcelain bottle that she took out from the attic yesterday, and went to find Su Manning with the small fish.
"Huh? The courtyard of the fourth girl doesn't seem to be very good. I thought it would be much better than our stay! ”
Su Xiaoxiao nodded, except that the courtyard in front of her was a little larger than the courtyard where she lived temporarily, it was indeed a little old.
"Why did you come, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Before Su Xiaoxiao had even stepped into the courtyard with one foot, the people inside ran out first, and when they saw her holding her hand, they walked outside the courtyard.
"Let's go, hurry up, I'm a little impatient."
Su Xiaoxiao didn't say a word, and obediently followed Su Manning to the front of the cherry blossom courtyard.
Cherry Blossom Courtyard, the name is matched with Su Yingxue, two in and two out of the courtyard, three rows of houses in front and back, and the yard is also full of various flowers.
It seems that the third sister's status in Su Mansion is quite high, otherwise this ancient woman was dismissed, and in the future, I am afraid that it will be difficult for even those who are almost open, but Su Yingxue was only grounded.
It's just that Su Xiaoxiao didn't know that when Su Xian gave Su Yingxue this family matter, he was still a six-rank official.
The Houfu with real power are all in the capital, and although the Nanping Houfu is a Houfu with little real power, it is at least a Houfu.
It's just that I didn't expect Lao Nan Pinghou to die a few years ago, this is really an empty shell Houmen, and it is not as good as his current promoted Beijing official, who has been thinking about retiring from this family business.
In addition, Su Yingxue's maternal grandfather's family was rich, so the matter was quickly settled.
This grounding is fundamentally because Su Yingxue wants to marry Wu Ping, and the young lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion has not yet married, and the Su family does not dare to offend the Prime Minister.
