Chapter 15 The Marriage of the True Daughter and Shumei
Chapter 15 The Marriage of the Really Rich Concubine
Zhao Xuexin was also very unhappy when talking about the marriage of the third-bedroom concubine.
Aunt Zhou and Aunt Cui teamed up to exchange her child. The child she had pampered and nurtured for more than ten years was not her biological child. How could she let go of the person who had plotted against her?
But the fifth girl, Chen Ruolai, is also Chen Wendong's child. Zhao Xuexin can attack Aunt Zhou and Aunt Cui, but not Chen Ruolai.
As a legitimate mother, she had to find a good marriage for Chen Ruolai, and she could not ruin the reputation of their Hou family, nor the reputation of other girls in the Hou family.
Zhao Xuexin was really itching with hatred. In the past, Chen Ruolai, a concubine, and her aunt had often caused trouble for her, but she couldn't do anything to her now.
But Zhao Xuexin also knew that she could also find a marriage for Chen Ruolai that would cause her unspeakable pain to take revenge and relieve the hatred in her heart.
"Mother Liu, have you understood what I asked you to inquire about?" Zhao Xuexin asked the grandmother who was waiting for her after returning to her yard.
"Madam, I have inquired clearly. Mr. Sun has now passed the examination and has a bright future." Grandma Liu replied respectfully.
Zhao Xuexin nodded, "That's good."
Zhao Xuexin raised her lips and smiled. Of course, she would not just find a man who was rich and beautiful, but a corrupt man for Chen Ruolai's marriage. She would find a man who seemed to have a bright future, but in fact, his family was not simple.
Take the Sun family for example. The young master of the Sun family has already been admitted as a scholar at a young age before he was even crowned as a weak official. His father is also a sixth-grade official. It seems that their family must be very good, right?
But the situation of the Sun family is not that good. The family is poor. The men can maintain their dignity when going out to socialize, but the lives of the women in the backyard are not so good.
In addition, the wife of the Sun family is not easy to get along with, and there is an old lady in the Sun family who is not easy to get along with. When Chen Ruolai marries in, she will face two mothers-in-law who are not easy to get along with.
There will be a good show to watch.
When Chen Wendong came back, he also told Zhao Xuexin about the marriage of the two concubines.
"On Ruolai's side, although she doesn't know what her aunt did, I know that you are not in a good state of mind. As long as it doesn't go too far, I will turn a blind eye." Chen Wendong said to Zhao Xuexin.
Zhao Xuexin smiled and said nothing. This guy is like this. He looks affectionate but is actually quite ruthless. He respects her as his first wife, but he is not close enough to love her. As for the concubine? He loves beauty, but the concubine in the backyard
But it is impossible for him to be favored for a long time, and it is impossible for him to favor his concubine and destroy his wife.
This kind of Chen Wendong is not much different from other men. Most men are like this. They only respect their first wives. The concubines in the backyard are not that important to them. They can never surpass the first wife.
Zhao Xuexin did not follow Chen Wendong's words, but said with a smile, "Speaking of the fifth girl's marriage, I really found out about a good candidate."
"Master, you should know that Mr. Sun from the Ministry of Industry, right? He is the Mr. Sun who is in charge of the sixth rank." Zhao Xuexin said, "I have found out clearly that the eldest son of Mr. Sun's family has already passed the scholar examination before he even got the crown.
.”
"Both his talents, knowledge, and appearance are good, and Mr. Sun's reputation is also very good. I heard that Mr. Sun has not yet been engaged, and I think he is a good match for the fifth girl."
"Master and Mr. Sun are both colleagues in the Ministry of Industry. It would be a good story to marry them, wouldn't it?" Zhao Xuexin looked at Chen Wendong with a smile.
Chen Wendong's originally frowning brows relaxed after Zhao Xuexin finished speaking. He recalled that one of the directors of their Ministry of Industry did indeed have a surname named Sun. His eldest son had indeed a very good reputation and was talented and knowledgeable.
Chen Wendong has met the eldest son of the Sun family several times. He is indeed good-looking and has a good character.
"Do you really want to choose Ruolai as the eldest son of the Sun family?" Although Chen Wendong doesn't hate this daughter as much as he hates Aunt Zhou and Aunt Cui because Chen Ruolai has his blood, in fact, his feelings are not deep at all.
He has many children, and the ones he values most are of course his legitimate sons. His legitimate daughters may not be as valued as he values his concubine, let alone his concubine.
In Chen Wendong's eyes, Chen Ruolai is just his child and doesn't have much emotion.
Therefore, instead of assigning Chen Ruolai, the eldest son of the Sun family, who was both talented and good-looking, it would be better to assign him to another concubine, Chen Ruoling, who was almost old enough to get married.
"Ruoling is almost the same age..." Chen Wendong said.
Zhao Xuexin smiled when she heard this, and did not interrupt Chen Wendong angrily to express her intention to let Chen Ruolai marry the Sun family's young master. Instead, she followed his words and said, "Indeed, Miss Qi has reached her age.
You can also decide on the marriage."
"But I saw that the seventh girl has a lively personality, so she might not be suitable for joining such a relatively rigid family. I asked about it and found out that the fifth son of Zhaowu's captain Yang family is planning to meet her."
"The seventh girl has a lively personality, so she is suitable to join a military general's family, isn't she? The Yang family of the Zhaowu School has a good family tradition, and the seventh girl can live a good life if she marries there."
Zhao Xuexin didn't even mention whether Chen Ruolai was suitable to marry into the Sun family. She only said that the seventh girl Chen Ruoling was suitable for the fifth son of Zhaowu Xiaowei's family.
Chen Wendong frowned. Their marquis family was born as a military general. His father, Marquis Pingyang, had earned his title by actually fighting on the battlefield, so Chen Wendong did not mean to look down on military generals.
but……
"The fifth son of the Yang family of Captain Zhaowu is a concubine, right?"
Zhao Xue said without changing her expression, "The seventh girl is also a concubine. Isn't this very appropriate?"
Chen Wendong thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, the Yang family's family tradition is indeed good, and it would be good for Ruo Ling to marry into their family."
"So, I have spoken to the Sun family and the Yang family?" Zhao Xuexin asked.
Chen Wendong nodded, "You make up your mind."
He only needs to worry about his son's marriage. Whether he is a legitimate son or a concubine, he will ask about their marriage, hoping that his son can marry a good wife.
But when it comes to his daughter's marriage, he only needs to tell his wife about it, especially when it comes to the marriage of a concubine. He just needs to know who his daughter is going to marry and doesn't interfere so much.
Zhao Xuexin also knew what kind of person her husband was, and she did not ask him to discuss her daughter's marriage with her.
After talking about the marriage of the concubines, Chen Wendong thought of the legitimate daughter he had just found. He looked at Zhao Xuexin and said, "That girl Chen Yu just came back. After all, she has been in the country for more than ten years. Some etiquette must be
She doesn’t understand. You should be more careful and find someone to teach her."
"She will marry into Prince Ning's Mansion in a few months, but she must not behave vulgarly and embarrass our Prince's Mansion." Chen Wendong said, earnestly telling Zhao Xuexin, "I don't want her to behave as elegantly as the other girls in the manor."
