After hearing Su Changsheng's wild words from Su Liu, Chen was not furious, but rather calm in a way that made people feel a little weird.
Su Liu and Su Xiao looked at each other, and a question flashed in their eyes. Could it be that they were mad?
"Mom, are you okay?" Su Liu asked cautiously.
Mrs. Chen smiled faintly, lowered her head and said, "Nothing, that's the kind of person he is. I can see through it."
"Mom, aren't you angry?"
"If he says he's not angry, that's a lie, but he's not as angry as he imagined. He has a mouth on his body. If he wants to say something, can others stop him? What can he do now? All he can do is talk.
That's all." Mrs. Chen sneered and said, "What he said is just big talk. Am I really stupid enough to go back to that place?"
When Su Liu heard this, he smiled and said, "Mom, you are right to think so. If you are really serious with this kind of person, you will be the only one who is in trouble. Let's not be stupid."
Mrs. Chen nodded, pursed her lips and said, "It does cause trouble for the Cao family."
"Mom, don't worry. I've asked Xueluo to prepare a generous gift and send it to the Cao family. I believe Uncle Cao will understand." Su Liu smiled to appease him and said, "Mom, what do you think?
, we all hope you are happy, find another partner."
"That's right, mother, if you married Uncle Cao, I wonder if that man would still dare to gossip?" Su Xiao snorted and said, "He really thinks that he is a treasure trove of gold and gold, and everyone is in awe of it!"
Mrs. Chen blushed slightly and said, "This matter is not urgent. Let's finish your haircut ceremony first."
Su Liu's eyes lit up, and he relaxed after saying this.
As long as Mrs. Chen doesn't resist remarrying, then Cao Kui still has a chance. They really hope that Mr. Chen will find another home. Not to mention getting rid of the scumbag's thoughts, they should also find another companion for themselves.
Sensing that Chen had relented, Su Liu quickly gave Cao Mingzhu some relief. Cao Mingzhu would naturally tell Cao Kui. As for what he would do, that was his business.
On the tenth day of July, the weather continued to be hot and it had not rained for a month, but it did not affect the holding of Suliu and hairpin ceremonies.
Before dawn, Su Liu was picked up by Mrs. Chen to bathe and change clothes. Surrounded by several girls, he soaked in fragrant soup for half an hour before changing into Jifu. At dawn, Su Liu drank a bowl of fragrant soup.
Bird's nest soup was made for breakfast, and the servants came to announce that the guests attending the ceremony were gradually arriving.
Cao Mingzhu was the first to arrive. She was on good terms with Su Liu, so she was naturally invited into Su Liu's boudoir to keep her company, while Mrs. Chen went to greet the guests.
"Are you nervous?" Cao Mingzhu looked at Su Liudao nervously.
"You're not nervous, why should you be nervous?" Su Liu expressed confusion.
The corner of Cao Mingzhu's mouth twitched, she punched her lightly, and spat: "Are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid? Now that you have haircuts, you can marry and become a mother. Are you pretending not to understand or something?"
?”
"Hey, maybe someone is thinking that spring is here?" Su Liu teased teasingly.
"You..." Cao Mingzhu felt very depressed, and said with a wry smile: "Is it you who has the hairpin, or I have the hairpin? Why do I look more nervous than you?"
Su Liu chuckled and said, "I'm already engaged, so there's nothing to be nervous about. In my heart, I've already got my haircut."
After two lifetimes, she was already in her thirties after two lifetimes. She didn't know anything else, so why should she be so nervous about it? It was just a ritual.
However, having said that, Su Liu still couldn't help but feel a little excited when Mrs. Song put the jade hairpin that represented adults' hair into a bun on her head.
Being an adult means that it will be easier for her to act in the future. At least people will not look down on her because she is a child who has not yet grown her hair.
The haircut ceremony was both solemn and solemn, and every step was very rigorous, including the words of thanks. Su Liu also did a particularly good job, showing great grace and propriety at such a young age, which made Mrs. Song's eyes flash with admiration.
It is really rare for a six-fingered peasant girl to be so grand and generous in her movements, without any of the rudeness or pettishness of a country girl.
"You raised her very well." After the ceremony, Mrs. Song looked at Su Liu, who was wearing a new lake blue dress, and said to Mrs. Chen sincerely.
The first daughter he had cared for and protected since she was a child had grown into a graceful and beautiful girl. Mrs. Chen was excited and her eyes were red. Hearing what Mrs. Song said, she hurriedly wiped away her tears and said: "
Madam, I am so complimentary, she is just a wild girl, Miss Song is the real well-educated lady."
"Look at you, good is good. In the future, she will be a very lucky person, so just wait and enjoy the blessing of a daughter." Mrs. Song gave a scolding look and said in a double tone: "Stop crying, today is your daughter.
It’s a good day, I also have good things to tell you, please wipe away your tears.”
"It's rude of me. Madam invites you to sit at the banquet." Mrs. Chen said with a busy smile.
At this time, Su Liu was dressed like a girl. The emerald jade hairpin on her head was crystal clear and very eye-catching, making her look even brighter than before.
She didn't invite many people to watch Su Liu's haircut ceremony. They were Mrs. Song's mother and daughter, the county magistrate's wife, girls of the same age, just her, Su Xiaocao Mingzhu, Song Yingzai and the magistrate's daughter.
As for the male guests, Song Fei and the others naturally came, as did Cao Kui, who was accompanied by Chen Ye and opened another table.
After the ceremony, it was time to sit down. Several girls of about the same age opened a table in Su Liu's room, and served the fruit wine that Su Liu had brewed himself. The table was chatting and laughing, and it was very lively.
"Girl, girl." Shuang Ningxing came over in a hurry and whispered a few words in Su Liu's ear. Everyone was very confused, what was going on?
Su Liu's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he said: "Are you serious? Hurry, go and hear the news again, and come and report it as soon as possible."
"Hey." Shuang Ning went happily.
Su Liumei smiled happily, but everyone couldn't stand it anymore. Song Ying couldn't hide her worries, so she was the first to ask: "Sister Liu, it's better to be happy alone than to be happy together. What good thing can you say to me?"
Let’s listen.”
"Yes, you are not allowed to hide it." Cao Mingzhu stared at her with bright eyes, as if you would look good if you dare to hide it.
Su Liu looked at her, raised his eyebrows and asked, "You don't know?"
"What?" Cao Mingzhu was confused.
Su Liu pursed her lips and smiled, saying, "I heard that Uncle Cao asked Mrs. Song to be the matchmaker to propose marriage to my mother."
"What?" Cao Mingzhu's eyes widened in surprise.
"How come I didn't know about this?" Song Ying pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Mother is very secretive."
"I don't know when dad asked for this favor." Cao Mingzhu was also very puzzled.
"I wonder if my mother agrees." Su Xin felt itchy.
"We can just eavesdrop." Song Ying rolled her black eyes and winked at Su Xiao slyly.
"right."
The two hit it off immediately, and before they stood up, Su Liu stopped them.
"Mom is thin-skinned. You are also a little girl. It's not nice to hear about this. Sit down quickly to avoid getting into trouble. I've sent Shuang Ning to inquire about it. There will be news soon."
Cao Mingzhu also chimed in and said a few words. Although the two girls were itchy, they were afraid of the majesty of the two eldest sisters, so they had to suppress their anxiety.
In the main hall, Mrs. Chen looked at Mrs. Song with a surprised look on her face: "Proposing marriage?"
Mrs. Song smiled and said: "Cao Kui has not married again since he got his wife. In these years, there is only one old Tongfang serving him. Don't think that he only cares about getting his wife, but doesn't this prove that he
Is he a passionate person?"
Chen's face was getting hotter and hotter, almost burning up, and he hesitated: "This, I..."
Mrs. Song held her hand, patted it comfortingly and said: "Since he can ask me to be his matchmaker, it shows that I am caring about you. Sister, don't think of me as the prefect's wife.
As you are my biological sister, is it okay to say something heartfelt to you?"
Mrs. Chen lowered her head, her heart was in a mess. That day Cao Kui said that a matchmaker was coming to her door. She thought he was just talking, but who would have thought that he would secretly beg Mrs. Song.
She was not an inexperienced girl, but it was the first time in her life that a man asked her to come to her in such a serious and serious manner.
"Madam, you can tell me." Mrs. Chen said in a sincere voice.
"We women only have two chances to be reborn in our lives. The first time is when we were born. When we were reincarnated, we were cast into a good family with good parents. This second time is when we chose the right husband.
Man, love you, cherish you, cherish you, and have a few more children, then you will be complete. I have to say something unpleasant, sister, you came here with a drink of bitter water. The hardships you have endured in your previous life, I will
Even if you don’t say it, you know it yourself, right?”
Mrs. Chen's face turned gloomy when she heard this, because Mrs. Song was right, she didn't have a good family background, and she chose the wrong husband. The only good thing was that she gave birth to two good daughters.
"You are at your current age, that is, in your thirties. Although you have children, you will not have to worry about food and drink in the future, and there are people who will take care of you until the end of your life. But your children will eventually grow up, and they will eventually spread their wings and fly high. You can't protect them for the rest of your life.
You can’t take care of us for a lifetime. When your children grow up, they will have their own world. In fact, the one who stays with us in the end is still the one beside you. That is the one who stays with you until the end. Do you think what I said is true or not?"
Mrs. Chen was slightly startled and nodded.
"The most important thing for us women is to have a good home. Raising children to provide for old age is all vain. The most important thing is to have someone around you who knows both hotness and coldness." Mrs. Song said sincerely: "Cao Kui said, you
When you get married, you will be the mistress of the Cao family. Although she is a stepwife, she is also a legitimate wife. If you are lucky enough to have children in the future, they will also be legitimate children. What is yours will not be lacking. The key is, he said, if you
If you don’t like it, you won’t even accept a roommate. What do you think?”
Mrs. Chen was really upset, it was so sudden. Although Su Liu and Cao Mingzhu had made fun of her and Cao Kui, and their two daughters had always said that they wanted her to marry again, she really hadn't thought about it.
"Madam, this is too sudden. I, I really..." Mrs. Chen was a little worried, frowned and pursed her lips and said: "I have only been divorced for a year, so I really haven't thought about getting married again.
Yes, do you see it?"
Mrs. Song also knew that haste makes waste, so she patted her hand and said: "Don't worry, if he really wants to, why can't he wait? However, I am talking about it as your sister, Cao Kui, I
It seems like he's not bad, how about you think about it carefully and give me an answer?"
Haste makes waste, especially for someone with Chen's temperament, Cao Kui will have to go through a lot of trouble if he wants to win the beauty back!
