Reborn Concubine, Be Respectful First

Chapter 40 She is still too high

The first day of the eleventh month of the lunar calendar is a good day for Su Xinya to marry into the Prince's Mansion.

The main wife, Jiang Xinyan, has been married for more than three months. Su Xinqing has heard a lot of news about the Eastern Palace in the backyard.

After all, Jiang Xinyan is obviously ambitious. She was able to surpass the heroine and marry into the prince's mansion, and also won herself three months of exclusive favor. Now she is successfully pregnant.

At this time, even if Su Xinya married into the family again, it would not affect her status at all.

As Lady Song Guogong said, Jiang Xinyan was content with having a son. Moreover, during this period of time, she also discovered that the prince's heart was not on her at all.

As a person with modern thinking, Jiang Xinyan quickly adjusted her mindset. As long as her position as Crown Princess was stable and she had the support of the Duke's Mansion, no one would be able to shake her position in the future.

Even Su Xinya and her child are not allowed to do so.

Therefore, she did not pay too much attention to the backyard and opened a restaurant in a high-profile manner.

As soon as day broke, the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion was immersed in a festive bustle.

In front of the mansion gate, lights and decorations had already been hung, and red silks were fluttering.

Teams of maids and servants in red were busily shuttling back and forth, their faces filled with joyful smiles. On the trays in their hands were loaded all kinds of dowries, gold, silver, jewelry, silks and satins, all of which looked extraordinarily luxurious.

As the auspicious time approached, a melodious and joyful sound rang out, breaking the tranquility of the early morning.

A group of musicians dressed in bright red clothes, playing suona and beating gongs and drums, walked at the front of the team.

Their steps were steady and powerful, and the music was loud and passionate, as if telling of the grandeur and joy of this wedding.

Next, there was the ten miles of red makeup, with red silk, gold thread and gems sparkling in the sun, dazzling.

It includes all kinds of daily necessities, as well as precious jewelry, jade, furniture, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, fields and real estate. These properties not only represent Su Xinya's financial strength, but also serve as a guarantee for her married life.

All in all, there are a total of 108 units, and each one of them requires four people to lift it, and it looks like they are having a lot of trouble lifting it.

In this way, many large pieces of furniture were delivered to the Prince's Mansion early on.

Surrounded by the crowd, Su Xinya, wearing a phoenix coronet and a bridal bridal gown, slowly walked out of the mansion.

The wedding procession set off in a grand manner. People along the way stopped to watch, making it a very lively event.

The team marched slowly on the street, with red makeup stretching for miles, like a giant red dragon swimming.

The sunlight shining on this red makeup makes it even more dazzling and eye-catching.

Because she was a concubine, the prince naturally could not come to welcome the bride in person. However, the wedding procession that came out of the prince's mansion was said to be the procession that was going to marry Jiang Xinyan, the prince's consort, that day.

Su Xinqing naturally didn't see it. It was Banyue who went out to join in the fun and came back to tell about it.

Su Xinqing followed behind the Li family and only stopped at the gates of the front and back yards.

Su Xinyan followed behind Su Xinya's dowry, and a sedan chair was carried away.

At this point, the Earl of Yong'an's Mansion became completely quiet.

After a peaceful and lively New Year, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Su Xinqing sat quietly at the back and ate the reunion dinner.

Su Xinqing, who was in a daze, heard her own name.

When he looked up, he saw everyone looking at him, especially Li, whose eyes were full of undisguised disdain.

"Lezhen, when you go out recently, ask around. If you find someone suitable, come back and tell me so that I can choose a better husband for your third sister. Got it?" Li was extremely unhappy. For the sake of her daughter's reputation, she could not let a concubine's daughter affect her daughter's reputation, as well as the reputation of the entire Yong'an Earl's Mansion.

Fortunately, now that I have a capable daughter-in-law, if there are things I don’t want to get involved in, I can leave them to her.

"Yes, daughter-in-law understands." Yuan stood up and saluted.

"Okay, it's not a big deal, sit down quickly," the old lady was in high spirits now. She glanced at the talkative Wei and continued to explain to her granddaughter-in-law, "Lezhen, the Su family is not like the Yuan family. They are friends with families of scholars. When you are looking for a man for your third sister, please also look for your seventh sister. Your third aunt has not studied for many years, so she doesn't need you to judge a person's bottom line. You can also help your seventh sister to find a suitable family."

"Yes, grandmother, I understand. But Seventh Sister is still young. I guess Third Aunt wants to keep Seventh Sister for a few more years. Grandmother, there is no need to rush. There are many men from aristocratic families in the capital. If you want to understand their character and knowledge, you still need Cheng Yi and Third Uncle to find out more. There is no need to rush."

"Okay, okay, Lezhen is still very thoughtful. Okay, no rush."

Hearing what the old lady and Yuan said, everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Among them was Mrs. Li, who felt relieved when she heard that her daughter-in-law remained calm and turned down the matter of the third room, and that the old lady was not angry.

Although Mrs. Wei didn't want others to interfere in her daughter's marriage, she couldn't say anything when the old lady asked.

Fortunately, Yuan was smart, otherwise I don’t know how much effort I would have to put in to turn down this marriage.

In fact, her daughter had already set her eyes on him a long time ago. She had originally thought of asking her best friend to send someone to the Earl of Yong'an's mansion to propose marriage in half a year. But now, it seems that she has to put it on the agenda quickly.

Fortunately, my daughter has reached the age of 15.

Yuan acted quickly and soon helped Su Xinqing look for three families.

"One is a candidate in Beijing. He just passed the imperial examination last year. His family has a few acres of good land and can make a living. He will take part in the Spring Examination in more than a month. If he passes the examination, he will have the Earl of Yong'an as his in-laws, so his future will not be bad. The second is the imperial merchant Li family in Beijing. The eldest son of the Li family is in the silk cloth business, which is the owner behind Caiyun Pavilion. The business in Beijing is just the tip of the iceberg. The Li family is mainly entrenched in the Jiangnan area. The third is the illegitimate son of the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion. He works in the North Pacification Division of Beijing and is a thousand households. It turns out that he has a fiancée who he was engaged to since childhood, but she suddenly died of illness last year. Third sister, do you like anyone?"

After Yuan finished speaking, she saw that Su Xinqing was still keeping her head down and said in a deep voice, "The Marquis's Consort is my cousin from my aunt's family. She once said that although Qi Lang doesn't like to talk and is in the Jinyiwei, he has a gentle nature. Third sister doesn't need to be afraid."

Su Xinqing lowered her head and listened to Yuan's selection of candidates. She didn't know anyone else.

But as a fellow businessman, how could she not know about the Li family? The Li family's current assets are not controlled by the eldest son, but by the second son.

The reason why the eldest son is in the capital is because of his poor health. There are many famous doctors in the capital, and the eldest son of the Li family has been recuperating in the capital all year round.

He is in poor health and should be taken good care of, but the eldest son of the Li family just likes to play with flowers.

Because of his poor health, he began to have some abnormal demands, which were heard in the streets and alleys of the capital, and even resulted in deaths.

If the Li family did not have strong connections, the eldest son of the Li family would have had a bad reputation long ago.

Su Xinqing didn't know whether Yuan Shi really didn't know or was pretending not to know by finding such a family for her.

"I...sister-in-law...I will listen to my stepmother and sister-in-law in everything." Su Xinqing saw clearly that she couldn't escape marriage after all.

However, to be fair, these three families are more than enough to match her, a concubine's daughter, especially the concubine's son of the Zhenbei Marquis's Mansion.

She was a concubine's daughter of the Earl's family, so in a sense, she was marrying above her station.
