Chapter 54: Self-Marriage
"If the father and mother really think about their daughter, can they let their daughter marry into the Lu family." Su Zijin looked at Su Guangtao and Fahrenheit, his eyes were firm, without the slightest timidity, obviously these words had been brewing for a long time.
Su Guangtao didn't answer when he heard this, but Hua looked at Su Zijin in shock: "Zijin, do you know what you're talking about?" ”
The daughter knew that this was exactly what her daughter wanted to say. Mother, you think about your daughter in every way, but you still didn't expect to meet such a person, the Lu family and the Su family are good friends in the world, and Uncle Lu watched his daughter grow up, if her daughter marries into the Lu family, she will naturally never be treated badly. Instead of picking a thousand choices and finally picking an unsatisfactory one, why not choose what is in front of you? Su Zijin said and glanced at Su Guangtao.
"Dad, my daughter knows that Yun Jun and the Lu family have a marriage contract, but now Yun Jun is the Xiangjun of Guangchang, and Brother Song Qiao is a long-term ill person. Yun Jun categorically will not marry the Lu family, even the Lu family will have to withdraw from the marriage contract. But the daughter is different, the daughter is just the daughter of the Su family, if the daughter is allowed to marry into a family that does not know the roots, the daughter is willing to go to the Lu family. At least for the days to come, the daughter has a plan in her heart. Su Zijin said all the words in his heart in one breath.
Su Guangtao didn't expect his eldest daughter to think like this, looking at this eldest daughter who has been lacking care, his heart is indescribable.
Su Zijin is the eldest daughter of the Su family, the first child in the Su family's generation, and should have been the most favored, but when Hua gave birth to her at that time, only the old lady and Hua were in the capital. Su Guangtao and Su Yanyan are both outside, and Su Zijin has less time with his father and grandfather when he is young. When Su Guangtao and Su Yanyan returned to Beijing, it was the time when their official fortunes were prosperous, and they devoted themselves to serving the country and missed her growth.
Then Fahrenheit became pregnant again.
When Su Yunjun's brother and sister were born, Su Yanyan was awarded the Zhongshu Order on the same day, which was a good omen of double happiness. The entire Su family said that the young master and the second lady had brought blessings, and they liked the two brothers and sisters even more. When he was older, Su Yunjun was a little clingy to people, and he would be a coquettish child to attract people's pain. The Su family went up and down, and they favored Su Yunjun even more.
Su Zijin is young and sensible, he lets his younger brothers and sisters do everything, he has never fought for it, and he has never said it even if he has been wronged. Slowly became too sensible, but was ignored. Although Su Guangtao saw it in his eyes, he didn't say it, but he didn't expect his daughter to have this thought now. For a while, he was speechless, not knowing what to say.
Hua's distress was for his daughter: "Zijin, you get up first." ”
said that she went to help Su Zijin, but she struggled to block it, and she resolutely didn't get up without the consent of her parents.
Seeing this, Hua sighed: "The Lu family naturally knows the roots, but there is only one Song Qiao in the main house of the Lu family, and I don't know what it will be like if I marry a side branch." Daddy really can't bear it, Song Qiao's child is good, but who knows how long he can live, my mother doesn't want you to put your whole life into it. ”
I was a little choked up when I said that.
Hearing this, Su Zijin raised his eyes and his eyes were already hazy with tears: "Mother, you have loved Yunjun since you were a child, and my daughter is envious, but my daughter knows that she is my sister and I should also hurt her, so I let her do everything." Because she's my sister, I can't fight with her for anything. When I was a child, I heard my father and mother say that I wanted to marry Yunjun to Brother Songqiao when I grew up, and I knew that I didn't dare to play with Brother Songqiao, because he was Yunjun's future husband. But now that Yunjun is no longer going to marry Brother Songqiao, why can't I? ”
As she spoke, two tears came from the corners of her eyes.
Su Guangtao and his wife were shocked to find that Su Zijin had long been happy with Lu Yuanjin.
I didn't expect it to be so hidden, I didn't even see it as their biological parents, if it weren't for Su Zijin's words today, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to see it in this life.
"Zijin...... It's Daddy I'm sorry for you......" Fahrenheit looked at his daughter, speechless.
After thinking for a while, Su Guangtao looked at Su Zijin and said seriously: "You go back first, let me discuss this matter with your mother, and then make a conclusion." ”
Su Zijin knew that his father said this, and he was by no means perfunctory to her, and there was no point in kneeling here again. stood up obediently at the moment: "Daddy, my daughter is over the distance today, please forgive me, and my daughter will go back first." ”
With that, he turned and walked out of the main house.
Su Guangtao and Fahrenheit looked at their daughter's back and were speechless for a long time, and Zhang's mother didn't expect that the eldest lady would say such rude words, and she couldn't wait to keep bowing her head without hearing it.
It was still Fahrenheit who remembered that Mother Zhang was still in the house and ordered: "Mother Zhang, go down, don't let others in." ”
Zhang's mother was pardoned and withdrew.
When there was no one, Hua looked at Su Guangtao and said, "Master, how is this good." ”
Although Su Guangtao has been up and down in the officialdom for a long time, he has never encountered such a thing, and he just shook his head when he heard this: "Don't worry, madam, let's rest first, let me think about it." ”
After speaking, he was afraid that Fahrenheit would still be worried, so Su Guangtao instructed Zhang's mother, who was waiting outside, to bring the maid in and wait for washing.
The main house was now busy inside and out, and it was back to its usual state.
Watching the maids in and out of the main house, Su Zijin, who was hiding outside the courtyard gate, breathed a sigh of relief, and took advantage of the night to go back to the lotus flower in the corridor.
Walking to the end of the corridor, a little maid was waiting behind the rockery with a lantern, and watched Su Zijin come over to greet her: "How is Miss?" ”
Hearing this, Su Zijin saw that it was his maid Luping, so he just whispered: "Go back first." ”
Luping immediately lit the lantern for her young lady, and the master and servant walked towards the lotus.
When passing by the pear garden, Su Zijin looked at the faint candlelight in the pear garden and couldn't help but stop. Seeing this, Lu Ping asked tentatively, "Miss, are you going to find the Xiangjun?" ”
"Let's go back." Su Zijin just glanced at it a few times, and then said softly.
Lu Ping immediately responded obediently: "Yes, Miss watch your feet." ”
When she went to the main house tonight to say this, Su Zijin also used all her courage, although no one saw it at that time, she knew that her heart had been trembling. Even now that they are out of the main house, the hands hidden in their sleeves are still shaking. It's just that when I thought of Lu Yuanjin standing under the tree, dressed in white and talking to her gently, I didn't feel so afraid in my heart.
Su Yunjun didn't know what was going on in the main house, and he just thought about what his grandfather would do in Hangzhou.
At noon the next day, someone came to the palace.
