Su Yueling was not surprised at all by this kind of thing. After all, the female officials around Ning Ning were people with real power. Moreover, they could contact Ning Ning and her at any time, making it easier for them to reach Tianting directly than others. You know, right?
I know how many officials spent their whole lives, but they may not be able to leave any impression on the emperor's mind.
She nodded slightly, looking into her daughter's complicated expression, "They should have accepted these marriages."
Those who propose marriage to them should have some good conditions. If they are not female officials, they will not be able to access these marriages.
Su Youning nodded, and his tone became more depressed, "So in recent years, more and more people have applied for the exam, and their thoughts have become less pure. For some people, my place should be a good Qingyun Ladder." Especially for her, only
Look at ability and virtue, not background. After all, no one has a strong background like hers. Even a local gangster in Yaozhou is nothing compared to Su Youning's family background.
Su Yueling knew that her family Ning Ning was indeed very smart, but no matter how smart she was, she was still young and more idealistic. She definitely felt uncomfortable.
She said: "If you think about it, many people just want to improve their lives. Not everyone is like you, born to be at the top, and don't need to worry about these. So you have the capital to fail and can pursue your ideals without distraction. On
No matter what their intentions are, no matter what their purpose is, as long as they can do their job well."
Regarding this aspect, Su Yueling is very thoughtful, "I think they are much more diligent than those men, and they have indeed put in hard work and sweat."
"I know you definitely prefer Jingzhu and Yuewei, but you can't show your preference too clearly. You have to let them know that you only care about contribution."
Although Su Yueling usually doesn't like to work, as the eldest daughter of the Su family, she is taken care of by her elders and has always received an elite education. Just because she doesn't do some things doesn't mean she doesn't know how to do them.
Su Youning thought thoughtfully, "I know, I'll pick two more and ask for credit for them."
It is the emperor's business to decide whether he will pass or not, but as a superior, her attitude of treating everyone equally must be clearly shown.
After Su Yueling mentioned her daughter, she asked her again, "Which families proposed marriage to Jingzhu?"
Generally speaking, Yin Yuewei will be more popular. Before, the Yin family was thinking of getting Yin Yuewei engaged, but Su Youning came forward to suppress the Yin family. Most of the Yin family would have been demoted to white men. If it weren't for Yin
If Yuewei was here, he would have been stepped into the mud. If Yin Yuewei showed that he wanted to completely sever ties with the family, the Yin family really couldn't afford the Sun family. Therefore, the Yin family finally compromised.
Su Youning said: "The second son of the highest-status Yaozhou Tongzhi, the second son of the Guo family also has the reputation of being a civil servant."
Su Yueling snorted, "Then he must have some other problem. He shouldn't be thirty years old, right? A Juren who is less than thirty years old can be considered young and promising."
Moreover, he is from an official background, so it will be easier for him to get married.
Su Youning frowned, "I asked someone to check it out, and found out that this man had a marriage that was almost settled, but he ended up with a concubine's eldest son. And his concubine's eldest son was married to his cousin.
out."
When Su Yueling heard this, she just wanted to laugh. No wonder the conditions seemed good, but she was still kicked. A childhood sweetheart's cousin was a concubine, and she gave birth to the eldest son, heirs, affection, and maybe the support of her elders. She has a soft personality. When a girl enters the house, she may be crowded to the point where she has no room to stand. Of course, she loves her daughter so much that she cannot bear it. Who would want to marry her daughter into such a family?
With Shen Jingzhu's temperament, she won't suffer any loss even if she gets married. But why should she wrong herself?
Su Yueling's expression turned cold. If it were Yin Yuewei, would the Guo family dare to propose this marriage? It was simply because they felt that Shen Jingzhu had become a defective product in their eyes after that experience, so they dared to come to propose marriage. This move revealed The meaning behind it made Su Yueling particularly disgusted. No wonder Ning Ning was also very annoyed.
"Does Jingzhu know about this?"
When she met Jingzhu just now, she couldn't tell whether she knew about this.
Su Youning said: "Of course they sent the news to Jingzhu first, but Jingzhu ignored them. She has been busy recently."
Su Yueling said: "Try to finish writing this book in the next few days, and I will send someone to send it to the capital as quickly as possible."
It's hard to say about Yuewei, but due to Jingzhu's contribution, it is safe to change her title. Her previous female inheritance law was implemented the year before last, and the effect was quite good. This can be regarded as Jingzhu's political capital. .
Su Youning was a little tired at first, but after chatting with her mother, she felt much better.
…
Guo family.
Mrs. Guo couldn't help but sigh to her confidant, "The door of this princess's mansion is really difficult to enter."
They had sent invitations frequently over the years, but they were like a stone ox entering the sea, without any news. The only thing that made her feel better was that not only the Guo family, but also other people in Yaozhou could not enter the princess's mansion. At this point, , Princess Qionghua treats everyone equally.
"That bastard really pissed me off." Mrs. Guo started to have a headache when she thought of her second son. What a great marriage she had arranged for Ashu. The woman was a young lady from a scholarly family, and they were a good match. When Ashu entered the official career, everyone She could make use of the other party's connections. Who knew that Ashu secretly communicated with her niece, and even killed her? Not only did the good marriage fall through, but no decent family in Yaozhou was willing to marry their daughter into the family. Mrs. Guo is not willing to follow the wishes of her big-hearted niece and let her become a head wife - her aunt came from that place and raised her to only know how to hook up with men. She would rather choose a small family for her son. people...
When she was choosing a suitable marriage for her son, Guo Jianshu took the initiative to tell her that he wanted to marry Shen Jingzhu.
Among the female officials around Su Youning, Shen Jingzhu is the most famous. On the one hand, it is because she is highly regarded by the princess, and on the other hand, it is because of her past. People have both praise and criticism for her.
From a woman's point of view, Mrs. Guo admires Shen Jingzhu very much, but she is not very happy to ask her to be her daughter-in-law. She is afraid of attracting ridicule, and is also afraid of being said that the Guo family is too ugly. However, Ashu He had a very tough attitude on this matter, saying that if the other party was not Shen Jingzhu, he would rather not marry anyone else and set his cousin right.
Mrs. Guo had no choice but to propose marriage.
As a result, nothing has been said yet, and I don’t know what the other party thinks. Normally, the Guo family’s family background is not something to choose from, and Shen Jingzhu is more than enough, so why should she be dissatisfied?
Her confidant said: "Maybe Mr. Shen plans not to get married in this life."
Mrs. Guo said disapprovingly: "It's impossible for her to stay away from marriage for the rest of her life, right?"
She gritted her teeth and said, "Go and find out about Shen Jingzhu's possible route in the next few days. I will go and tell her in person." This sincerity should be enough, right?
