Chapter 2 The Su Family

Half an hour later, the carriage stopped outside the Su family's mansion.

Before Su Junning got out of the car, she heard her mother's voice.

"Ning'er!" There was a slight cry in Cui's excited voice.

Su Yi stepped forward to support his wife, "Don't worry, madam, the carriage hasn't stopped yet." ”

And Su Junning in the car was also excited, and quickly got out of the car and threw herself into Cui's arms.

"Mother, my daughter misses you so much!"

I haven't seen my daughter for a year and a half, and Cui's is choked up at the moment.

"My mother also wants Ning'er, hurry up and show my mother, have you grown taller, have you lost weight." As he spoke, he carefully looked at Su Juning's whole body, and then sighed, "They have all grown into big girls." ”

Thinking that he hadn't been able to be by his daughter's side for more than a year, Cui's eyes were red again.

Su Yi, who was next to him, was also very happy when he saw his little daughter.

But as a man, he is still more reserved and restrained in his emotional expression.

only smiled and touched Su Junning's head, "Ning'er has grown a lot taller, and she is about to catch up with Zhiyi, do you miss your father?" ”

"I think, I can't sleep well, I'm hungry and thin!" Su Junning grabbed her father's arm and coquettishly.

Su Yi liked the appearance of his little daughter's ghost and elf, and his smile was even bigger for a while.

With a wave of his big hand, he said, "Then hurry up and eat, today I specially called the dining room to make your favorite dishes, and I must eat more!" ”

"Hmm!" Su Juning nodded with a smile, and beckoned to the brothers and sisters next to him, "Big brother, third brother, second sister, let's all go in quickly." ”

After speaking, he took his father's arm left and right and entered the mansion.

Second Miss Su Zhiyi looked at Su Junning's back, her eyes flashed, and then she followed with a cold face.

The eldest son, Su Yuhui, looked at his sister who was not very happy, and also sighed, and then greeted the third Su Yu'an, and the brothers also followed suit.

A lunch that catches the wind and washes the dust can be regarded as a happy use.

Then everyone sat and drank tea in the flower hall, and Su Junning beckoned Nan Su to take out all the gifts he had prepared for his family.

What gave Su Yi was a pair of authentic landscape paintings written by famous artists.

Su Yi is a civil official, and he loves books, calligraphy and paintings, and this gift is very favorable, and he can't put down the paintings given by his youngest daughter.

Subsequently, Su Junning gave Cui's a set of popular noodles in Lin'an.

Naturally, everything is good for her daughter, and Cui's is also smiling.

Immediately afterwards, Su Juning took out a pair of fine colored glazed vases and ordered Nanxu to send them to Su Zhiyi.

"This is for the second sister, when I was in Lin'an before, I saw that the second sister liked it, and I bought it back for the second sister."

Su Zhiyi saw the vase in front of him, and his eyes overflowed with a hint of brilliance, but he was immediately pressed down by her.

said lightly, "I don't like it much, it's rare that the fourth sister still remembers, thank you." ”

Su Yuhui, who was on the side, couldn't stand his sister's coldness, so he played a round.

"Zhiyi has always liked porcelain, this vase has a delicate style and bright color, I like it when I look at it."

Su Yu'an was also busy keeping up, "Yes, the second sister and the fourth sister are both good eyes." ”

The third child is the only one in the family, unlike the eldest son Su Yuhui, who speaks more like two bowls of water, and he can't be offended by either side.

"The eldest brother and the third brother have both, don't be greedy."

Su Junning smiled and took out all the things that were given to them.

This enthusiastic look doesn't seem to care at all about Fang Cai Su Zhiyi's deliberate coldness.

Su Yuhui and Su Yu'an accepted the gifts, and they both smiled and thanked them.

After sitting in the antechamber for half an hour, the crowd dispersed.

Su Junning took her mother's arm, and the mother and daughter went to the Jade Pavilion where she lived affectionately.

"It's all arranged according to the way you like, and the utensils in the house have been replaced with new ones, but I haven't made new clothes for you yet, but the cloth has been bought, and I'm waiting to measure the size, and I'll invite someone to come to the house another day." Cui Shi said with a soft smile.

She gave birth to such a daughter, who is more precious than anything else.

Su Junning pulled her mother to sit down, "It doesn't matter, I just remember whether my mother has been doing well for more than a year, I see that you have lost weight." ”

"You are alone in Lin'an, why don't my mother miss you." Cui Shi sighed, reached out and touched her face, "Bianjing has just stabilized, and your father and I are reluctant to let you be alone in Lin'an, and we are worried that it will not be good to take you back." ”

"Why did my mother say this?" Su Juning was puzzled.

Looking at her flower-like and delicate daughter, the sorrow in Cui's eyes was even stronger.

"The emperor intends to ease the relationship between the old and new ministers, let the high family of the court and the middle of the court pull out the officials of the cold family, and since last year, he has given marriage to the families of many ministers in the court, and now it seems that he also intends to point your second sister to the second son of the uncle Rui Guogong." Cui Shi said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Su Juning frowned, if for this purpose, wouldn't Su Zhiyi's marriage be completely reduced to a political tool.

Knowing this, she understood in her heart that what Cui Shi said was not good.

Then he asked, "So my mother is worried that after I make the ceremony, the emperor may also beat my idea?" ”

There are so many unmarried men and women of the right age in Bianjing, if Emperor Jianning really wants to resolve the contradiction between the ministers of the two factions through this means, it is indeed possible.

Although this trick has harmed others, it is beneficial to Emperor Jianning.

Soon after he ascended the throne, it was not a good thing that the dynasty was unstable, and the easiest way to make the two factions shake hands and make peace was to tie their interests together, and marriage was an excellent means.

It's really a dead friend who doesn't die and a poor way!

Su Junning couldn't help but complain fiercely in her heart.

Cui Shi nodded, and mentioned one person with a melancholy look in his eyes, "Do you still remember the young lady of the Qin family of Marquis of Jingchang?" ”

"Remember, Qin Wan, the granddaughter of Marquis Jingchang, has a good relationship with her second sister." Su Junning looked at her mother.

"She was assigned to marry by the emperor, and last year she married the new commander of Bianjingwei, the eldest son of Lord Wu, married to a husband and wife who were not in harmony, and her husband was newly married and took a concubine, and she was angry that she had a miscarriage."

Cui's tone was full of pity and sympathy, and after a pause, he continued.

"In my opinion, whether the marriage is given or the right family, both parties are reluctant, and there are always more women who suffer, especially those who are not well matched, like Miss Qin and the Wu family, and the conversation is not speculative, and the husband and wife are not harmonious."

This is not unreasonable, after all, the growth environment is different, the three views are different, and they are forcibly tied together, how can they be harmonious.

Su Junning lowered his eyes and was silent.

It's another day of fear of marriage.

Seeing that her daughter seemed to be depressed, Cui immediately realized that she had talked too much.

took Su Junning's hand and patted it.

"Don't think about it too much, my mother just loves to ponder, with your father here, your marriage won't have too many problems, I said these are also reminding you to be careful everywhere when you return to Beijing, and your second sister has been in a bad mood recently, a little cold, don't go to your heart."

Su Juning hooked her lips and nodded, saying in her heart that Su Zhiyi had always been very cold, and she had long been used to it.

"Don't worry, mother, I remember everything." Su Junning grabbed Cui's arm and leaned over as if she were coquettish.

Cui touched her daughter's head lovingly, and suddenly remembered something, so she held Su Junning's shoulder and asked her to sit upright.

"By the way, a few days ago, the Duchess of Ruiguo handed over a post, she held a poetry meeting in her house, and invited a lot of people, there is no shortage of unmarried Miss Gongzi, your second sister is going, since you are back, let's go together."
