When Mrs. Chen heard this, she couldn't sit still. How dare those ladies tell lies? The third lady's marriage has not been decided yet, so how could she be promised to some merchant? At that time, she wondered,
What kind of person can't afford the daughter of a noble Marquis, but she wants to marry a businessman? Now I understand, someone deliberately made things difficult for the third young lady!
Su Xiyue saw that her expression was a little bad, and she immediately sneered again, "Here comes someone!"
Qinglong, who was guarding outside the door, came in and said, "I wonder what the princess has ordered?"
"Go and investigate this matter carefully. How come I don't know that this sister is actually engaged to be married? Find out who is chewing this behind her back. Isn't it going to ruin my sister's reputation?
"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Qinglong retreated, and Mrs. Chen stood up again. She was about to kneel down again when she saw Su Yu'er and Aunt Yun coming back.
"What's wrong with sister? Who made sister angry again?" As soon as Su Yu'er walked in, she looked at Su Xiyue's face and said anxiously, "You are in good health, don't get angry again. If
If my second brother-in-law finds out, I still don’t know how to punish the servants in this other courtyard."
Su Xiyue's expression softened slightly, and she patted the back of Su Yu'er's hand, "It's okay. I just chatted with Mrs. Chen about some talkative women who didn't understand the rules, and I felt a little depressed for a while." After saying that, she turned around again.
He looked at Mrs. Chen and said, "Come here, change the tea for Mrs. Chen."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Mrs. Chen saw that the princess was no longer so angry, so she dared to sit back again. She couldn't help but think that this third lady was really loved by the princess. She suppressed the princess's anger with a few words. It seemed that this third lady,
It’s really a good one!
Although she is a concubine from the Hou family, her etiquette and rules are very good. I heard that she grew up by the old lady's side, and her calligraphy and painting were taught by the princess herself. The Marquis is quite considerate towards this daughter.
Value it. If you can get this marriage, in the future the Chen family will no longer be those country people that everyone looks down upon!
After all, Mrs. Chen is somewhat vain. She always feels that if her son can marry a noble girl, it will be considered as supporting the Chen family! Furthermore, they can slowly integrate into the Chen family in the future.
Once you reach the upper class society, you will no longer be shunned by others at will.
"Yu'er, please send this small box to Mrs. Chen."
"Yes, sister." Su Yu'er took a small brown box and placed it on the table next to Mr. Chen. Then she returned to the lower left position of Su Xiyue and sat down, lowering her head and saying nothing.
Looking at Su Yu'er's series of actions, Mrs. Chen's eyes were filled with satisfaction and satisfaction! This is what a lady looks like! Every move and gesture, although not as noble as the princess, is still full of satisfaction.
Everything is very measured and without losing etiquette. If I can get such a daughter-in-law, I will be much better in front of handkerchiefs like before!
"I wonder what the princess means by this?"
"Mrs. Chen, please open it first and take a look." Su Xiyue's face returned to its previous gentleness and gentleness, making it impossible to detect any clues.
Mrs. Chen opened the box with some curiosity. It contained Xiao Tao's birthday and her biological mother's birth date. In addition, there were also every detail of Xiao Tao's life in southern Xinjiang in the past few years since Vice General Chen's death. Although
There are no details about what she ate or used, but she still remembers her annual expenses very clearly.
"In these years, the prince has no time to take care of her, so he sends five hundred taels of silver to southern Xinjiang every year. To put it bluntly, how can she get enough of this money from a girl's family? It's just that the prince has Vice General Chen's face in mind.
That's all. Today, I will hand over all her things to you. As for the future, I don't care. After all, her surname is Chen, not Su. Mrs. Chen, do you think so?
Isn’t that true?”
"Yes, yes! Xiao Tao is already a great blessing to have the prince take care of him for a few years. How dare he work for the prince and princess anymore? They are all servants. If we don't check for a while, if we can bring her back to the house earlier,
Come on, I won’t let the princess have such a childlike heart for her anymore.”
"Mrs. Chen's words are a bit out of line. What did I mention about Mr. Chen just now?" Su Xiyue half lowered her eyelids, and her long eyelashes covered more than half of the brilliance in her eyes, let alone Mrs. Chen.
I didn't dare to look directly, even if I did raise my eyes, I might not be able to understand what the princess was thinking!
However, based on the previous conversation, Mrs. Chen probably understood what was going on here, "This, everything depends on the princess! The fact that Quanzi's marriage has the princess personally intervening is a blessing he has cultivated over many lifetimes.
Of course, my wife is also happy to share it, uh, no, I am grateful."
The stone in Su Xiyue's heart was finally relieved. This Mrs. Chen was indeed a sensible person. It seemed that her favor was not sold to her in vain! However, she naturally had to deal with Xiao Tao again.
If you try to beat it and it doesn't work, then don't blame yourself for being cruel!
"Liangchen, please tell Mrs. Chen carefully about some of Xiaotao's journey. Be realistic and don't exaggerate and talk nonsense. I'm a little tired, so I won't accompany Mrs. Chen."
"Princess, please." Mrs. Chen stood up quickly and bent over. How could she dare to say no?
As soon as Liangchen waited for the princess to leave, he began to tell everything about Xiaotao's arrogance and domineering these days. Of course, it also included what happened in Xiaojia Town before. However, when it came to Liangchen's mouth, it was naturally the prince.
He gave her the house in the outer courtyard to live in, and he and the princess lived in the backyard together. After all, it was a private house with few rooms. However, the prince also specially ordered guards to guard the door to prevent anyone from ruining Xiao Tao's reputation.
After listening to this, Mrs. Chen felt that this old face was almost unbearable! What was going on? Why did she get involved with such a concubine who didn't understand the rules! She simply lost the Chen family's face!
Finally, Liangchen took out another banknote from his sleeve and said, "Mrs. Chen, our princess said that the prince should not have passed over Mrs. Chen to take care of Miss Xiaotao. Isn't this a slap in your face? After returning to Beijing,
, the princess heard that you are a kind-hearted person and treat the concubines and servants in the house very well, so I feel relieved to leave them in your hands. Here is a thousand taels of silver notes, the princess said
, This is what the prince agreed to with Vice General Chen. Now it is appropriate to hand over the payment of this agreement to your upright mother-in-law."
