Chapter 30 You come and I go up

After Su Yiqing met the eldest young master, she suddenly had an idea. No wonder Su Jinfeng wanted to study abroad.

The reason is that Su Jinfeng's appearance is really hard to judge. It's not ugly, just a bit ordinary. Not only compared with the former Su Jinming and Kangjun Prince Zheng Yu, but also compared with Su Yiqing's somewhat dull-witted relative.

Even my elder brother Su Jinxu cannot compare.

This Su Jinfeng has a completely unremarkable appearance from a passerby, the kind that makes people forget it at a glance. He is fifteen or sixteen years old, wearing old-fashioned navy blue clothes, and has a rigid expression.

My sisters are also very formal and reserved when they meet, which makes their plain appearance a bit ugly. Of course, as long as a man doesn't look disgraceful to the city's appearance, generally speaking, it doesn't matter. If he is ordinary, he will appear honest. I heard that some old scholars

I like Su Jinfeng's appearance and down-to-earth person.

There was also an episode in the middle. The concubine Su Yixi wanted to please her eldest brother, so she told a joke about flowers and beauties, and then grinned. As a result, Su Jinfeng immediately put on a straight face and taught the concubine a lesson.

In other words, women should smile without showing their teeth, let alone tell such frivolous jokes.

Just talking about it made Su Yixi almost cry, and tears kept rolling in her eyes.

In the end, it was the eldest sister Su Yirong who came out to smooth things over and bring the topic to light.

However, the scene suddenly turned cold. After all the sisters looked at each other, no one dared to speak, for fear that if they made a mistake, they would be lectured for a long time.

After finally making it to the end, Su Yiqing heard all the sisters let out a sigh of relief when they came out.

Of course, this matter is not a big problem. Anyway, Su Jinfeng lives in the outer hospital and we don't see each other very often.

Soon, the day of appointment to the Yongxiang Marquis Mansion came.

As soon as the betrothal gift was brought out, Mrs. Cen and Mrs. Qu's faces immediately turned dark.

There is a miscellaneous pile of old things, and a few new jewelry styles are too old-fashioned. It seems that the gold shop has reduced the price. It is worth at most two thousand taels of silver.

You know, Su Yirong's dowry is 20,000 taels, and the dowry list has been sent to her a long time ago. Logically speaking, there shouldn't be much difference between the betrothal gift and the dowry.

The wealth of the Yongxiang Marquis Mansion is well known to everyone. Just look at the Xu family's dowry. How come the wife is so shabby?

Mrs. Cen's heart skipped a beat as she recalled the past. The Yongxiang Marquis Mansion had already been defeated when the old Marquis passed away in the early years. The current Yongxiang Marquis Mansion was supported by Mrs. Zhou alone.

Mrs. Zhou obviously holds the financial power. If she is really unhappy and takes away the family property and gives it to the Xu family privately, no one else can say anything, especially since there was such a commotion in the Yongxiang Mansion before, and there are some cases where she is in the wrong.

Next, besides, giving it to Mr. Xu is not the same as giving it to the third room, that is, to Su Jinxu. The palms and backs of the hands are full of flesh. Helping out is like asking for money from the left hand to the right hand. Maybe there will be quarrels among the people in the uncle's house.

One game.

The Marquis of Yongxiang arranged the marriage in such a hurry, maybe he wanted his wife to supplement the dowry, right?

I suspect so, but the betrothal gift has been given, and the bride will be married in three days. It would be better if Su Yirong had not made trouble before. Now it is the second engagement. If something goes wrong, he can enter the nunnery directly.

.

Even if he knew it was a fire pit, he could only grit his teeth and jump down.

Mrs. Qu had no choice but to cry and tell her daughter over and over again to hold the dowry tightly and not let her husband's family take advantage of her.

Su Yirong was very calm and comforted her mother. There were still three nails in the broken ship. The Marquis Mansion had a title and property. No matter how difficult it was, it wouldn't necessarily be that difficult. This might be a good thing. The Marquis Mansion was short of money, which proved that the future mother-in-law Geng would be the housekeeper.

Wu Fang, when the time comes, she can take the opportunity to hold the power of the housekeeper in her hands.

The population in the mansion is simple, and there is nothing that requires too much money. She has a rich dowry and a title, and the palace is well managed. She can still live a comfortable life. In a certain aspect, at least it is not worse than the Kangjun Prince's Palace.

If you don't have money, you won't be able to keep so many aunts and concubines.

Just like the third wife, how can a husband be so adamant when he reaches out to ask his wife for money? It's really unreasonable, just pick more strong companions just in case.

Ms. Qu still felt that her daughter had been wronged, but her daughter could see it openly, and the marriage could not be changing, and she could not say anything.

When Su Yirong got married, Mrs. Zhou came back and presided over the wedding. Without waiting for Mr. Xu to say anything, she hurried away again, but ordered her personal maid to secretly give Su Yirong three thousand silver notes.

On the second day of the wedding, Mr. Geng handed over the housekeeper's power to Su Yirong, but did not give her any money or teach her anything. He only told her to ask the housekeeper if she had anything to do.

Su Yirong's wet nurse, Mrs. Yang, was very aggrieved by this and said to Su Yirong: "It is said that this lady comes from a small family. It is true. Miss, you are really going to suffer."

But Su Yirong scolded: "Mom, please don't say that. Madam is my mother-in-law. There is no daughter-in-law in the world who can talk about her mother-in-law. If mom continues to speak out loud, I will have no choice but to seek legal action."

Mother Yang shut her mouth.

Su Yirong lowered her voice and said: "Mom, please don't make things difficult for me. I am already the daughter-in-law of the Xu family, the young lady of Yongxiang. If you are satisfied, you should live this way, and if you are not satisfied, you should live this way. Instead of complaining, try to find ways to live your life."

Mother Yang said with tears in her eyes: "Yes, Miss, no... Young Madam, I will go out to find people in the mansion to find out what is the current situation in the Marquis Mansion."

Su Yirong ordered: "Go to the old man who Mrs. Zhou used before and don't ask anyone she trusts."

"I know." Yang's mother said and then left.

Su Yirong touched the three thousand taels of silver notes given by Mrs. Zhou in his sleeve, and thought to himself, in fact, Mrs. Zhou could have given it to her in front of everyone to get a favor, why would she do that without anyone noticing?

Mrs. Zhou is definitely a character who can prop up the declining Yongxiang Houfu. Someone who can fight her way out of adversity will not have too much sympathy, especially because she is married like this.

It’s already good that the madam didn’t stumble her.

What else does Mrs. Zhou need to do now?

The answer is really simple.

On the day when Sanchao returned home, after meeting her sisters and elders, Mrs. Qu took her daughter back to her room to whisper.

After learning that Mrs. Zhou had given Su Yirong three thousand taels of silver, Mrs. Qu curled her lips and disapproved of it. After taking away all the property of the Yongxiang Marquis Mansion, she gave another three thousand taels of silver. Who would be grateful?

Seeing her mother's disapproving expression, Su Yirong said anxiously: "Mom, you can't be confused at this time. Mrs. Zhou took the initiative to show her kindness, and we have to show some kindness."
