Chapter 42: I want to get married
Su Rong sighed, "In this way, my mother set me a marriage for the Protector Mansion, not because the Protectorate Mansion can protect me, but basically wants to give me a good marriage, right?" After all, the little concubine of Jiangning County, even if she stepped on the roof, she couldn't reach the son of a first-class protector from the Protector's Mansion. β
Lan Niang nodded, "Su Taishou's life has already been cleaned up by us, but your mother's side is like a fog, your mother's identity must not be simple, but for some reason she is willing to be Su Taishou's concubine." β
"There's always a reason to force it." Su Rong didn't believe that her mother was a concubine for his father was true love, she remembered for a long time, and since she could remember, she knew that even if her father stayed overnight in Nuanxiang Pavilion, he only slept on his feet and never slept with her mother.
Lan Niang's expression was solemn, "Even the people who protect the country and the mansion are not afraid, who is it?" β
"In short, it's someone you can't mess with." Su Rong poured another sip of wine, "Do you know why my father, obviously having the ability, has been nesting in this small place in Jiangning County all these years?" Probably to protect me, he can't move, if he leaves Jiangning, I'm afraid he won't be able to protect me. β
Lan Niang was taken aback, "So, Su Taishou knows?" β
"He's not stupid, how can he not know who the person he brought into the house is? My mother's person, although I don't have much memory of her, but I know that she is the person who is most afraid of involving others, since she is a down-to-earth concubine and stays in the Taishou Mansion with peace of mind, at least, she will not let my father be affected by her in a daze, and she will definitely tell him. β
Lan Niang immediately said: "Since this is the case, isn't it enough to ask Su Taishou?" β
"He's pretending to be stupid." Su Rong was helpless, "Every time he mentions my mother, he has a heartache, even how the marriage contract of the Protectorate Mansion was made, he said that he didn't know, and it was all pushed on my mother, I can only forget it, as a child, don't embarrass him, it's filial piety, right?" β
"Does the eldest lady know?"
"I shouldn't know, maybe I know a little, but I also pretend not to know, who knows." Su Rong also felt that this family was not very normal, so it was not surprising that she was not a normal person.
"But you've been hiding it tightly all these years, and Su Taishou doesn't know that you've been assassinated from time to time, right? If that's the case, then he thinks he's protecting you, but he doesn't know that you're not at peace. Lan Niang wanted to sigh again.
"Not necessarily, after I burned the Warm Incense Pavilion that year, no one sneaked into the Taishou Mansion to kill me. The people who have assassinated me over the years have all appeared unexpectedly when they were out of the Taishou Mansion. Su Rong said: "He should know something about the events of the year, after all, although the bones of the people who were burned by a fire in the Nuanxiang Pavilion were burned to ashes, if they were carefully screened, there were still traces to be checked, but he never asked me, probably because he was afraid that once he asked me, I would ask him to understand." β
Lan Niang nodded, trying to break her head, but she couldn't figure out what the mystery was, and sighed, "We are nested in this small place in Jiangning, it is still too small, these years, you don't let us move, we can't go out and follow the clues to investigate, so we don't know anything so far." You said that you spent a lot of money and a lot of effort to let us learn a basket of things, did you raise us in vain? β
"Not really." Su Rong smiled, "Aren't I waiting to see if the marriage of the Protectorate Mansion will be successful?" There is a plan to succeed, and there is a plan to succeed. It's better not to take the wrong road. β
"Now, is it or not?"
"Of course, I wanted to do it." Su Rong put down the empty wine jar and said the purpose of coming to Lan Niang today, "I don't want to let go of Zhou Gu, from this month onwards, you are going to drive all the shops to the capital!" In addition, through the shop, the news network is quickly rolled out. β
Lan Niang's eyes lit up for a moment, "Finally, I don't have to stay in Jiangning all the time!" "You know, the big guys have been waiting for years." β
Su Rong nodded, "I know!" β
Lan Niang was a little excited, "I will convene them overnight today to discuss together, and the charter will be made tomorrow." Will you come to see the charter tomorrow? β
Su Rong shook his head, "I'm not free, you guys can do it yourself, I want to accompany my fiancΓ©." β
Lan Niang: "......"
She calmed down a little, "Didn't Zhou Gu just come to Jiangning, didn't you just get along with him for two days?" How? In just two days, you really like him? β
"Sort of!" Su Rong had already drunk an empty jar of wine while speaking, put down the empty jar of wine, and whispered: "People who are likable are always reluctant to let go!" I want to marry him. β
When Lan Niang heard this, she immediately listed Zhou Gu as a key person, "What about him?" How is it for you? Want to marry? β
Su Rong was a little depressed, "It looks like I'm not very happy, but I don't seem to be so resistant." β
Lan Niang seriously suggested to Su Rong, "Then you have to be serious and use some means, the little prince of the Gaomen Mansion, especially the people who go in and out of the palace as a common thing, what beauty has not been seen since childhood?" You have to make him like you first, and you don't want to marry. Otherwise, such people who came out of Xuanhemen were raised very proudly in their bones, and if it weren't for their soft personality, the elders might not be able to be his master. β
Seeing that Su Rong didn't speak, she said again: "There are really a lot of such things, those who run away from marriage, those who jump to death and don't marry, and it doesn't work to beat and scold the family law and kneel in the ancestral hall, unless he is willing, otherwise, some will make a fuss." β
Su Rong was taught, "By what means?" β
Lan Niang was embarrassed, "I don't know this, is it a woman's means to seduce men?" You have to understand his preferences first, see what he likes, prescribe the right medicine, and take it step by step. β
Su Rong thought for a moment, "Okay, I'll go, bring me two altars to take away." β
"Do you even take it with you? a jar of a hundred taels of silver. Lan Niang glared, "I broke two jars, drank another jar, and took away two jars?" In one night, did it make you lose five hundred taels? Little ancestor, this wine is not easy, thirty-six processes, don't you know how difficult this wine is? Out of Jiangning, a jar costs two hundred taels and may not be able to buy it! After we get out of Jiangning, we have to use money everywhere, so let's save a little and keep it to make money. β
Su Rong looked at her, "You know, didn't you just say that I should prescribe the right medicine?" Zhou Gu seems to like to drink this drunken flower drink, so I will bring it back to him. β
Lan Niang suddenly had no reason to object, so she took out two more jars, tied them together, and handed them to her, "Be careful on the road, do you need me to send you?" β
"No, just get me another set of gold needles." Su Rong took the wine, remembering that the golden needle was gone, if the golden needle was in hand today, that person would have to die under her hands, bury it under the laurel tree in the backyard of this smiling guest, and make flower fertilizer for the laurel tree, which is his fate.
Lan Niang immediately found a set of golden needles and handed them to Su Rong.
Su Rong put away the golden needle, no longer stayed, carried two jars of wine, and walked out of the wine shop.
