Reborn Concubine, Be Respectful First

Chapter 42: One person attains enlightenment and ascends to heaven

Su Xinqing's marriage went smoothly. The next day, Yuan brought people to tell her that the Zhenbei Marquis' Mansion had agreed.

After choosing an auspicious time, he sent someone to propose marriage.

At the same time, Su Xinqing also heard Yuan say that the marriage of Su Xintao and Su Xinru was also settled.

Su Xinru married the second son of the second branch of Duke Zhang's mansion. Wei has been smiling happily these days, and even the old lady has praised the girls in the mansion.

Fortunately, Su Xinqing also received a set of fine red coral and kingfisher feather headdress because her marriage was finalized.

The paper money was very valuable, but it looked colorful and not very elegant. Finally, it fell into Su Xinqing's hands.

Although Su Xintao's husband's official position was not high, he was indeed a powerful one. He was the eldest son of the prefect of Jingzhao Prefecture. There was nothing he could not take care of in the capital, big or small.

It is also a factor that considers emotional intelligence and one’s own background and position.

Su Xintao's mother-in-law was an aunt from Duke Zhang's mansion. Although she was a concubine's daughter, she was also related to the Zhang family.

Listening to Yuan's casual topic, Su Xinqing sighed inwardly.

It is true that when one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit!

If it weren't for Su Xinya, she would have married the prince and was very favored by him. He would have brought Su Xinya with him every time he entered the palace.

Otherwise, in the capital city where the imperial power is concentrated, who would know that their Su family is just an earl's mansion?

It was actually thanks to Su Xinya that Su Xinqing was able to climb to the position of the legal wife of the illegitimate son of the Marquis of Zhenbei.

"Third sister, although you are not a talkative person, you are probably smart. I heard from the old people in the mansion that your aunt was also a smart woman when she was alive. What's more, your cousin was the top scholar in the previous session. I have something to hide from you. My younger sister has fallen in love with your cousin three years ago and has not married yet. When you get married, your aunt and her family will definitely come back. At that time, let your aunt meet your younger sister Jingzhen in your yard. Third sister, can you still do me a favor?" Yuan had lowered her tone to the lowest level and was watching Su Xinqing's reaction while speaking.

"Sister-in-law... I... my cousin and aunt's family are not rich... they opened a teahouse..." Among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants have always been at the bottom.

Su Xinqing still didn't think that the Yuan family, as a grand councilor, could tolerate having such an in-law.

Moreover, the sister who could make Yuan Shi spend so much time and effort must be a legitimate daughter of the Yuan family.

Regardless of whether the other party knew it or not, Su Xinqing still told him the truth.

She had also been taught by Nanny Zhang, so she still had the right sense of right and wrong.

Sure enough, after Su Xinqing finished speaking, Yuan did not answer immediately. She sighed and said, "How about this, after some time, let your aunt and uncle hire a few more servants and shopkeepers, let them show their faces in the store, and they will not go to the teahouse anymore. The losses will be borne by our Yuan family. When my sister goes there, she will naturally bring maids and housekeepers to take good care of your uncle's family. In this way, you don't have to worry about them. Third sister, what do you think of this?"

Oh, how about it? I have already thought of everything. I want to start with myself and control my uncle's family, including my cousin's marriage. It's really too good to be true.

"Sister-in-law...Sister-in-law, you have thought it through, but my cousin's marriage still needs the decision of my uncle and aunt. Xinqing, I dare not take the initiative to speak for my uncle and aunt. They should come down."

Su Xinqing didn't say whether it would work or not, nor did she say whether she would help or not.

Just say that everything depends on the wishes of my uncle and aunt.

Hearing Su Xinqing say this, Yuan was not angry, because it was similar to the answer she had imagined, and she did not expect the other party to become the head of the Song family.

Originally, the third young lady was a dispensable person in the mansion. Even the old lady, such a kind person, did not like this girl who was always timid.

Even Nanny Zhang and Master Qian were unable to correct the Third Young Lady's character.

It can be said that even if Su Xinqing was sent to someone else as a concubine, the Su family could not afford to lose this person.

Fortunately, the third girl's aunt's maternal family had a top scholar, otherwise, the Su family would really make the third girl disappear in the backyard, or send her directly to the capital, and then spread the news of her sudden death.

A helpless concubine's daughter will die if she dies.

But things have been different since someone from the Song family entered officialdom.

The gifts bestowed by the old lady also began to be sent to Muxueyuan.

"Yes, third sister, you just need to agree. On the day of your wedding, your sister-in-law can bring Jingzhen here. Then your sister-in-law will personally send you off and watch you leave." Yuan took Su Xinqing's hand affectionately and asked her about some things she would need to buy for the wedding.

When Yuan saw Su Xinqing's helpless look, she knew what was going on.

After promising that the mansion would prepare everything for Su Xinqing's wedding, he left in a hurry.

Seeing Yuan leading people out of the yard, Su Xinqing looked up and looked at Banyue with curved eyes.

Let’s talk about it first. You see, someone will automatically provide the things your daughter needs for her wedding. Why bother buying them yourself?

What's more, isn't it a waste of your own money?

That night, Yuan brought the dowry lists of the three girls in the mansion to Li.

Li didn't care much about it. She just glanced at it and stepped aside.

She gestured to Xi's mother to continue removing her makeup.

"Since this household has been handed over to you, the dowry that the public household will give to each girl, excluding the things given to me and the old lady, will depend on the man's preference. You can make your own assessment and write down the list, and show it to me tomorrow. As for the dowry of the seventh girl, since she is the legitimate daughter of the third house, the public household will give 10% more. As for how much Wei wants to give to the seventh girl, that is the third house's own business. You don't have to worry about it. It has nothing to do with our second house," he said, and then he sat upright with his eyes closed, looking very tired.

"Yes, I know what to do. Mother-in-law, please take a rest. I'm leaving now."

After Yuan had left for a long time, Li finally opened her eyes: "Oh! Just because you have married into the Zhang Guogong Mansion, you think you can sit back and relax. If you don't know, you might think you are marrying into the eldest wife's house. After a hundred years, you will have to move out of Zhang Guogong's house obediently."

"Madam, you are right. Mrs. Wei is also short-sighted, just like our old lady. Let me tell you, our Yong'an Earl's Mansion will still depend on our eldest son and daughter in the future. The third son and the seventh daughter have been raised badly by Mrs. Wei, and they haven't even married into the mansion yet, but the seventh daughter has already started to plot against our eldest daughter in the yard. I almost couldn't help but say this when the little maidservant said, Madam, Mrs. Wei and the seventh daughter are too rampant now. What do you think, do you want me to do it?" Mother Xi has been humiliated many times by the old woman from the third room in the backyard recently.

He kept calling her "concubine" and "feizong" and almost spit blood on her face.

It happened that either Mrs. Wei or the Seventh Miss were present, and he really couldn't lose his temper and could only bear it.

Now that she heard Yuan talking about the third wife's pretense, how could she not say it and let her master know the third wife's shameless face?

Eat their food and use their things.

After gaining the upper hand, he turned against me.
