Chapter 103 Marriage
Mrs. Lu didn't expect that the head of the family would invite all these people to save face for his eldest daughter. She felt very jealous.
But she was not confused. The reputation of the Su family today was her reputation. She couldn't be unhappy, and she had to play the role of a loving mother in front of others.
This girl is just too lucky. She was rewarded by the eldest princess, the empress dowager, and the emperor, and was also given the title of a princess. She is truly unique in the capital!
She is so dazzling, doesn't that make Yao'er look useless?
In the future, her family will inevitably compare Yao'er with her.
She felt uncomfortable, but she kept putting on a fake smile while greeting guests all day. At night, she didn't want to say anything and felt bored and didn't want to move.
"Madam, there is no need to be so. Your blessing is yet to come. The young lady has a princess to back her up. This is a real benefit. I think the princess is a protective person and she always loves her two little ones.
Take the young master's academic prospects for example. They are unique in our Jing country and his future career may not be worse than that of the head of the family.
Maybe the young master will be able to ask for a title of imperial consort for you in two years."
Madam Liu, Lu's confidant, persuaded with a smile.
Old Madam Su of Qingqiu Hall is particularly happy today. Seeing the grand ceremony of her granddaughter's coming of age today, she is afraid that many wealthy ladies will come to propose marriage to her tomorrow.
She saw the way the concubine looked at her granddaughter, and that was the same look she gave her future daughter-in-law!
I wondered in my heart, maybe this child already has a lover.
Thinking of this, the old lady smiled so much that her wrinkles were smoothed out.
In the evening, the old lady asked Su Yuejian to go to her place for a small gathering and chat.
In fact, it was just a roundabout way of asking what the Toffee's plan was.
"Granddaughter, I also know the Queen Mother's intention today. However, I am about to go to Zhongli, and I don't want to get engaged for the time being. Otherwise, I will be restrained by the title of Princess Rong's daughter-in-law who has not yet married."
"Since you returned home, you have been different from other girls. Your achievements now are not inferior to those of ordinary princes. If their family cannot allow you to continue practicing medicine, what do you think?"
"It's hard for me to put down what I'm doing and spend time in the back house.
The prince didn't ask for anything, he just promised to wait for me.
As for his mother, she naturally hopes to get married and have children as soon as possible, but all this is too early for me.
If she cannot be completely sure that the other party is a good person to entrust her life to, and if their family cannot unconditionally tolerate her actions, then she will not marry. "
"You have been a person with your own ideas since you were young. It seems that it is not easy for their family to marry you! Aren't you afraid that the prince will run away impatiently?" Old Lady Su joked.
"If I get it, I'm lucky. If I don't, it's my fate. If I'm destined not to get it, I will let it go and live a good life. Are you still worried that your granddaughter can't live a good life? Your granddaughter will never treat herself badly."
After hearing what Su Yuejian said, the old lady felt relieved.
This granddaughter doesn't need anyone to worry about her. She has thought everything through very thoroughly. I don't know who this child looks like.
Su Yuejian smiled and said, "Grandma, don't worry about it. Take good care of yourself! By the way, I'll give you another checkup and measure your blood pressure. Have you been doing what I said recently?"
The housekeeper beside the old lady replied, "The old lady does walk seriously, but she gets tired after walking for a while. She can only walk about 2,000 steps a day. She doesn't put enough salt in her food, so she always complains that it has no taste."
"Blood pressure is around 150! At your age, if you can keep your blood pressure at this level and not let it rise any further, that's good enough.
It is best to stick to a light diet, reduce salt intake by half, and gradually increase the number of steps to 6,000.
Grandma, you must listen to me. High blood pressure can be a serious or minor disease. If it is well controlled, it will be fine. But if it is not well controlled, it can be fatal.
So Mammy must help and supervise Grandmother to do this, this matter is of great importance!"
Seeing her granddaughter's serious instructions, Madam Su smiled and said, "When you get old, you will inevitably have all kinds of illnesses and disasters. Don't worry about me. I know that I have to be well so that this family can be well."
Seeing that the old lady was exhausted after a day's work, Su Yuejian said hurriedly, "You should take a rest first. I will come to see you another day!"
Su Yuejian had just returned to her own territory, so she quickly changed into her home clothes. Her eyes were afraid of light and had been sore for a day. She didn't know how long it would take to heal.
Could it be that this special ability has a limit on how many times it can be used? Yesterday I was too curious and used it too much.
If I control the frequency of use, will I no longer experience eye pain in the future?
Su Yuejian didn’t understand it for a moment and thought about verifying it later.
"Elder sister, elder sister! You are so beautiful today!"
Little Su Yao ran over happily, "I've never seen you dressed like this before! You look like a fairy from heaven!"
Su Yuejian poked her little head with her finger in amusement, "Then both of us are fairies, I am the big fairy, and Yaoyao is the little fairy!"
......
Over at the Rong Palace, the Concubine called Nangong Li over as soon as she got back, "What exactly do you mean by that with Princess Zhongli?"
"I like her, and she also has me in her heart."
"Then why are you still hesitating? I'll go find the princess as a matchmaker and ask for her hand in marriage!"
The concubine looked anxious, afraid that if she was too slow, she would be overtaken by other families attending the ceremony today.
"But I don't want to get engaged yet. The princess has made so many achievements that benefit the country and the people at such a young age. Do I, a man of five feet tall, have to live an idle prince? I want to marry her after I have made some achievements."
"Are you trying to piss me off to death? The emperor favors you because you are idle. If you were to get involved in the court and show off too much, would we still be able to live like this?"
"I didn't say I wanted to get involved in the court, I just wanted to try it, secretly!
What you are worried about will not happen. Believe me!"
Nangong Li knew that the requests made by Su Yuejian would probably be difficult for the Concubine Dowager to accept for the time being.
He needs to take it step by step. He has thought about those problems countless times and he can accept them all. Even for the last question, he is thinking about protecting Yue'er. Even if an unfortunate event really happens, he is not willing to change his original intention.
But it is not easy to convince the concubine.
So Nangong Li wanted to delay it for a while on the grounds that he wanted to make great achievements.
If it drags on for a few more years, the concubine will probably accept him unconditionally as long as he is willing to get married and the other party is a woman.
Is there any parent in the world who can compete with their children?
The so-called parents’ disagreement is just using parents as a shield.
Now that there are finally no obstacles between the two of them, he doesn't want to ruin the current atmosphere. Yue'er is still young anyway. As long as he can delay for a few years, many problems can be solved by then.
At the Wang family, after Wang Zongyuan's wife and daughter returned, they gave a vivid description of the grand occasion of the eldest princess's three hairpin-cuttings today. Even the Crown Princess came to praise her.
This was the first time that the Wang family met their sister's daughter.
It is enough to know that she grew up well and is favored in the Su family.
Wang Wenjun said, "My cousin gladly accepted the ten guards we sent over, saying that they were just the right amount of help. She also said that although the two families don't often visit each other, if you need any help, don't hesitate to ask her. My daughter thinks she doesn't have the airs of a princess and is a girl who is easy to get along with."
In his generation, the Wang family had another son, Wang Chuanmeng, who was serving in the military.
My daughter Wang Wenjun is not engaged yet.
"You and the princess are cousins, so you should interact more often. You are always alone on weekdays, so why don't you send a letter to the princess and invite her to come and play. There is nothing wrong with you young people getting to know each other."
"Then I will invite her tomorrow. She will be going to Zhongli soon. If we don't meet again, we won't be able to see each other again."
Wang Wenjun was very happy to get her father's approval, and immediately wrote a letter and sent it to the Su Mansion.
She knew from a young age that her body was different from others, and that no female in her family could escape the curse.
She doesn't have many friends, and she finally met a cousin who seemed to be a good match for her, but she's leaving soon. What a pity!
