Chapter 238: Lack of Greed
When Su Xiyun came out of Su Lao's house, she suddenly felt an inquiring gaze, and she turned her head. Then he faced a bewitching face.
It is Hunan embroidery.
She wore a big red shoulder today, a long skirt that dragged the floor, very close to the waist, just standing there, it was already reminiscent of the willows swaying in the wind. With a smile on her face, she saw Su Xiyun stop and look at her, so she bent down and saluted: "Hello, Miss." β
Su Xiyun said lightly: "Get up." β
Xiang Xiu thanked him and straightened up.
"Your mother's health is much better, isn't she?" Su Xiyun asked.
The expression on Xiangxiu's face remained unchanged: "Thank you Miss for your concern, it's indeed much better." β
Su Xiyun nodded, didn't say anything, and turned to leave. When she walked away, Xiangxiu's eyes suddenly shot strong resentment. But soon. The resentment vanished without a trace......
In Chunhui Courtyard, Su Lao was talking to Mama Lin.
"Did you see clearly, I personally took Xiyun's hand and sent her to the carriage last night?"
Listening to Su Lao's words, Mama Lin immediately cursed and swore: "This matter is true! The slave swore that the man was indeed His Royal Highness King Rong! The slave and maid recognized the clothes he was wearing, it was absolutely impossible for ordinary people to wear that material, not to mention that the young lady directly shouted his name, how could this be wrong? β
Su Lao heard this. But there was still a skeptical look on his face: "That's what you say." They should be very familiar with each other, but if you look at Xiyun, she never told me the truth. β
Mama Lin didn't dare to say that Su Xiyun was not, how Mama Li stepped down, she was clear in her heart, for this young lady who was not welcomed in the past, she was now in awe except respect.
"Old, yes or no, you don't have to worry about it, anyway, this is a good thing, when His Royal Highness King Rong opens his mouth, our young lady will be able to marry as a side concubine." Such a glorious thing. You should be happy. β
Su Lao's brows furrowed even tighter, and she scolded angrily: "What is there to be happy about? Didn't you see the eight characters sent by the princess of Lijun yesterday? β
Mama Lin was stunned.
"Old, then you meanβ" It's been a long time. She plucked up the courage to ask.
Su Lao sighed and said, "The princess of the county understands very clearly, she is here to propose marriage to me for her son." But you see, Xiyun now has such a good relationship with His Royal Highness King Rong, how dare I agree to Princess Jun? But if you don't agree, won't you offend her? β
Mama Lin said: "But old, you promised the princess of the county, what if His Royal Highness King Rong is unhappy?" Our Bofu can't afford to toss. β
Su Lao sighed and said, "Who said it wasn't! But if you refuse the princess of the county, in case His Royal Highness King Rong fails to agree to marry Xiyun in the end, won't we just fail at both ends! β
Mama Lin was dumbfounded when she heard this, how did she think that Su Lao didn't want to let go on either side?
Su Lao was still talking over there: "Hey, you say, why am I only a granddaughter?" How good do you think this is one more? Now you don't have to worry about it so much. β
Mama Lin suddenly spoke: "Old, you still have a granddaughter, have you forgotten?" β
As soon as Su Lao heard this, he immediately cast an inquiring look: "What do you mean?" β
Mama Lin hurriedly said, "Old, have you forgotten, aren't there still a few in Dongfu?" The slave maid looks at Miss Fei Yun and Miss Qiang Yun well. β
Su Lao immediately turned from joy to anger, and she said with a straight face: "Okay, what are you doing in Dongfu?" Whether they are good or not, what does it have to do with us? Besides, what kind of Fei Yun, Qiang Yun's, can it compare to one toe of my Xi Yun? β
Mama Lin hurriedly said flatteringly: "It's not comparable, it's not comparable." β
Su Lao's expression finally improved.
Seeing this, Mama Lin hurriedly took the opportunity to say: "Old, although those granddaughters are from Dongfu, but when they come here, they still want to call you 'grandmother', aren't you worried about missing a granddaughter?" This is not simple, you discuss with the old man in Dongfu, if she is willing to succeed one to our house, we will find her a happy marriage. We still call Miss Bofu to the outside world. The slave believes that such a good thing, Qi Lao will definitely cry and beg us to agree. β
"But what do we get out of it?" Su Lao said uninterestedly: "Even if you recognize our house, it is not close to us, and if you marry in the future, you may not be able to help, why should I cheapen them!" "In the final analysis, Su Lao still doesn't want Qi Lao to take advantage of the slightest. Even if it's cheap, she doesn't want it herself.
How could Su Lao's problem not be known to Mama Lin? She has also served the old people of Su's older generation, but Mama Li was really shining before, she could only avoid her edge and have been doing her own things silently. If it weren't for Mama Li's brain cramps to marry her stupid daughter-in-law, and provoked Su Xiyun, she might not be able to have such a scenery today, speaking of which, she would also be grateful to Su Xiyun.
"Old, you should think like this, there is only one young lady left in our house, no matter how good she is, she can only marry one in the end. Of course we'll let her marry the best. But the rest of it is not bad, it is still a hot item. However, that person has nothing to do with us anymore, we don't have a girl to marry him, and in the end, we can only watch him marry someone else's young lady. β
"But the meaning of marrying a girl from Dongfu is different, no matter what, Dongfu is surnamed Su, and they are all part of our uncle's mansion, and they also recognize our mansion, whether this uncle is close in his heart or not, on the surface he still has to do enough, if there is something in the uncle's mansion, he has to contribute. This is the same as a serious uncle, as for Qi Lao, won't she have to stick to you from now on? Old, think about it, isn't this reasonable? β
After Mama Lin's bitter words, Su Lao's face really relaxed.
"Well, you're right, it's really better to be cheaper than a few cheap outsiders." Su Lao nodded and said.
Mama Lin smiled: "Isn't this the reason! β
"But this matter can't be known to the Dongfu side in advance." Su Lao muttered: "If the surnamed Qi knows that we are choosing between His Royal Highness King Rong and Qi Shi, she will not take the opportunity to let her granddaughter seduce His Royal Highness King Rong?" No, we have to wait for Xiyun's family affairs to be settled before we talk about it. β
Mama Lin hurriedly served tea and said with a smile: "You are still wise!" β
"Less poor mouth!" Su Lao took the tea from Mama Lin's hand, took a sip, and said to Mama Li: "You are also a good person, the method is good, and you are very considerate of the house." It's embarrassing for you, you have been wronged by my side for so many years, you won't blame me, right? β
As soon as she heard this, Mama Lin hurriedly said, "Old, what are you talking about!" Wherever you serve, it's the same, the slave and the maid are willing, and they have not suffered any grievances, don't you make the slave and maid ashamed when you say this? β
When Su Lao heard this, she loved Mama Lin more and more in her heart, and at this time, she had completely forgotten what Mama Li had been.
No one knew about this conversation in Chunhui's courtyard.
Su Xiyun went back and told Su Qianyun what Su Lao said, and the sisters were relieved. To be honest, neither of them was willing to face Du Ruoyun.
Su Xiyun always felt that it was no accident that Du Ruoyun suddenly asked them about Su Daiyun's news that day. She always felt that something was going to happen.
Sure enough, her guess was confirmed a few days later.
On this day, Su Xiyun received an invitation from Du Ruoyun again.
This time, Du Ruoyun invited their sisters to watch the big drama in the Seven Emperors' Mansion, and the Seven Emperors specially invited the most famous opera troupe in the capital to sing in the Seven Emperors' Mansion for seven days and seven nights. Du Ruoyun just did a favor. Inviting their sisters is just to be a companion for themselves. Zhen Huan throws skills.
Feelings: Du Ruoyun thinks that on the day of the wedding of the Seven Emperors, the two sisters did a good job of following her as followers, right? So this time you want them to be your followers?
Su Xiyun has never scolded, but this time when she received the invitation, she couldn't help but scold: "Damn!" β
Although Su Qianyun didn't know what Su Xiyun scolded, she knew that this was definitely not a good word based on Su Xiyun's tone and the expression on her face. This time, Su Xiyun was angry, but she was unexpectedly not angry at all, just said calmly: "We shirked once, do we want to shirk this time?" β
"How do I know? This Du Ruoyun is really idle, she just gave birth, won't she take care of the child at home? Don't all of her children need to breastfeed? Curse her child for malnutrition! Su Xiyun snorted angrily.
Su Qianyun glanced at her and said, "Malnutrition? What kind of curse is this? If you want to curse, why don't you make a ruthless one? β
Su Xiyun leaned back heavily, leaned the weight of her whole body on the back cushion, and said lazily: "The child is always innocent, no matter how angry we are, don't talk about the child, it's not good." β
Su Qianyun said helplessly: "Then who was cursing other children's malnutrition just now?" β
Su Xiyun said lightly: "That's not a curse, what I'm saying is the truth." You see Du Ruoyun running around all day long, and the milk has not overflowed, which means that she has returned to milk. In this way, her child can only eat the milk of the nurse, but the milk of the nurse is the most unnutritious, and it is strange that her child is not malnourished! β
Su Qianyun said curiously: "You even know this?" What's wrong with the milk lady? Aren't they all the same? β
Su Xiyun said lightly: "I read from the book that people's milk can only be eaten for half a year, and after half a year, there will be no nutrition, and most of the women who go to the rich and noble families to be nurses are half a year old." β
Su Qianyun let out an "oh" and said, "This statement is fresh. β
Su Xiyun said: "Anyway, if I have a child in the future, I will insist on feeding it myself, unless I have no milk myself, I will not let my child eat other people's milk." It's not as nutritious as eating porridge. β
