As soon as this idea came up, Zhou Gu shook his head in his heart.
Making medicine was already very hard. She didn't sleep last night, and it looked like she would be busy for another day today. If she were to write letters and strategies for him later, she would have to work for several days, so she might as well forget it.
Especially, he can't stay in her yard all the time. It's okay for a short time, but for a long time, there is no airtight wall.
So, he shook his head decisively, "No need."
Su Rong turned to look at him.
Zhou Gu explained, "I will set off tomorrow. There is no rush for the notes and strategies. You can give them to me when we meet next time. Anyway, I have read them all and I am not in a hurry."
Su Rong nodded, "Okay."
Su Rong Pharmaceutical's techniques are skillful and flawless. Just from the strong taste and aroma, you can tell that the medicine produced is superior to the medicine Zhou Gu and Su Xingze jointly researched and prepared.
The day flies by.
In the evening, after the sky darkened, the eldest lady did not see Su Rong's shadow and asked Su Xingze. Su Xingze said that Qimei hadn't finished her work yet. The eldest lady sighed and said to the eldest lady closest to him: "You see?"
No? Who said your sister is heartless?"
The eldest lady whispered: "Mother, you said this yourself."
The eldest lady was choked and couldn't refute, "Indeed, it was me who said it, but how could I have expected that when she grows up, when she meets someone she cares about, she will rip her heart out like this?"
He didn't even take a break. He stayed in the house night after night making medicine. He didn't seem to come over for dinner.
"Hey." The eldest lady sighed, "It's true that women are not allowed to stay in college."
She looked at the eldest lady and said, "Think carefully about the person you met yesterday. Tomorrow your Aunt Shen will arrange a date for you. According to your Aunt Shen's wishes, if you don't like these two, who is suitable?"
There is another candidate for you."
The eldest lady blushed and whispered: "Mom, I don't think I need to see each other tomorrow. Let's just let Mr. Feng see me yesterday. Let the second sister go to see him tomorrow!"
She can't be dazzled by herself first. After all, there are so many sisters waiting behind her. If she looks around and her eyes are too high, how should she choose the sisters behind her?
The eldest lady saw what she was thinking, "You don't have to think about your sisters. You still have to marry someone who suits your taste. There are so many young men of the right age in the capital. If you can't choose, we will choose from outside Beijing. Although
I have always said that I want you all to stay in the capital, to be closer to your eldest brother, and to help each other, but how can I be sure about marriage? What's more, your eldest brother no longer plans to stay in the capital and is going to Hebei Province.
Bei, in this case, it won't be that important whether you marry in the capital or not."
"The eldest brother will not stay in Northern Hebei for too long. He will eventually return to the capital." The eldest lady blushed and said, "I think he is very suitable. Although Mr. Feng is smarter, only smart people know the pros and cons.
She knows how to do stupid things, but will not make mistakes easily. My daughter is stupid and not as smart as her sisters. The Feng family is not that different from ours in terms of family status. Now the Feng family has just entered Beijing and has not yet established a firm foothold, but it is precisely because of this that
She will choose our family and use our family to get to the crown prince. Mrs. Feng also seems to be shrewd. Her daughter would rather choose a shrewd mother-in-law than a stupid husband and mother-in-law, so as not to worry about the whole family in the future. "
The eldest lady smiled when she heard this, "The Feng family is indeed suitable, otherwise your Aunt Shen would not have scouted out the Feng family for you first. There are no stupid people in this family, the house is clean, and there is no mess. It is indeed a good choice." She changed her voice and whispered: "That's Mr. Feng, he's a little bit worse looking."
The eldest lady pursed her lips and said happily, "Mother, you are used to seeing the eldest brother and the seventh sister. You have also seen Mr. Zhou and Mr. Ye. Even the young prince Xie of Ruian Palace is a jade tree. Now look at Feng The eldest son is naturally worse in appearance. But the daughter is not as focused on appearance as the younger sisters. After all, the daughter's appearance is not that outstanding."
The eldest lady looked at the gentle and gentle face of the eldest lady and said, "I am not praising you for your appearance. Although you are not outstanding in the capital, you will definitely not be inferior to other noble ladies."
She nodded, "Okay, it's easier for Feng Cheng."
She has a neat temperament. Since the eldest lady has taken a liking to the eldest son of the Feng family, she no longer holds back, and calls for someone to go to the Shen Mansion to send a message to Mrs. Shen. The meeting will continue tomorrow, but the eldest lady will If it is the second young lady, the eldest lady will stop seeing each other and inform the Feng family so that the two families can sit down to discuss the marriage.
She didn't even consider that the Feng family would look down on the eldest daughter, because now her daughter was a hot commodity and they would definitely take a fancy to her.
Mrs. Shen quickly received the message and said with a smile to Mr. Shen: "The eldest lady of the Su family is indeed as neat and tidy as the rumors say. Although the daughters of the Su family are all concubines, the girls who were carefully raised by her are indeed neat and tidy." With a straightforward temper, the eldest lady of the Su family said that she has taken a liking to the eldest son of the Feng family, and if she doesn't continue to see him, it's up to him. The eldest lady of the Su family doesn't have any objections, so I don't want to spread the word."
Shen Xian nodded, "That boy from the Feng family is called Feng Cheng, right?"
"It's him."
Shen Xian commented, "A good young man."
Mrs. Shen laughed, "Of course he is good, otherwise I wouldn't be able to choose him for the Su family. I thought that the eldest lady of the Su family would definitely shop around, so I first looked for three candidates for the eldest lady. Feng Cheng is the most suitable one. Unexpectedly, the eldest wife and the eldest daughter of the Su family were so happy that the people behind them ignored each other and directly chose Feng Cheng. It means that the second young lady took the top spot."
Shen Xian nodded, "It's the Su family's style not to be sloppy. Compared to this lady, Su Xu has a softer temper."
Mrs. Shen said: "Now that the eldest son of the Su family has won the first place in the competition, and because of the relationship between the East Palace and you, the future is bright for those who want to marry the Su family, the threshold is almost broken. I heard that I am Mrs. Su." There are so many people who have sent messages to me regarding the selection of a son-in-law from the advisor, not to mention the Su family. I heard that people visit Dongsi Hutong every day, but the eldest wife of the Su family comes early every day with her daughters. When they left the house, they all avoided it. Someone even intercepted the eldest lady of the Su family on the way and wanted to act as a matchmaker for Xingze, but the eldest lady said that Xingze had no plans to get married for the time being, and that the man should first establish a career and then start a family."
Shen Xiandao: "You are still young in practice. It is not too late to get married after two years of hard work."
Mrs. Shen also agreed, "I really haven't found any of the little girls of the right age today who are worthy of Xingzhi. He is not in a hurry. He can just wait for the younger girls to grow up."
Shen Xian looked at Mrs. Shen speechlessly, "A younger one? Isn't the age difference too big?"
"It doesn't matter if the difference is too big. After all, the older a man is, the more valuable he is." Mrs. Shen said: "In the future, if you have a high position of power, there will be a lot of girls to choose from. But his sisters can't afford to wait. Women are as young as they are. , only a few years, otherwise if we could wait a few years, the options for marriage would be much better than now."
