Coming out of her grandmother's yard, the good mood Su Jin had before arriving was completely gone.
She lowered her head and went all the way back to her boudoir, then closed the door and didn't even eat dinner.
After Mrs. Yu found out, she immediately came over and knocked on her daughter's door. After waiting for a while, the door opened. The room was dark, Su Jin's eyes were red, and she had obviously just cried: "Mother."
Mrs. Yu felt pity in her heart, entered the house, and lit the candle first.
The door was closed again.
The candles were lit, and the exquisite girl's boudoir became brighter.
"Jin'er," Mrs. Yu held her daughter in her arms distressedly and asked in a low voice, "Did your grandmother say anything to you?"
"Mother, I don't want any wealth or honor. I don't want to marry the prince's cousin either."
Su Jin's voice was choked with sobs, and her eyes flashed: "I regard the prince's cousin as my biological brother. How can a younger sister marry her own brother?"
"But my grandmother didn't allow me to comment at all. My grandmother said that my aunt was unwilling to marry at that time, but later she married into the royal family, became famous, and lived a glorious life."
"Grandma also said that life-long matters must be decided by the elders, and there is no room for one's own willfulness."
"Mother, please go and beg grandma. Don't let me marry the prince. I don't want to marry him..."
Tears overflowed from the corners of my eyes.
Su Jin choked up and couldn't speak.
Mrs. Yu was heartbroken when she heard this, her eyes were red, and she hugged her daughter tightly: "Jin'er, don't you still know what your grandmother's temper is like?"
"Outsiders think she is kind, but in the Su family, she has always been right. Don't talk about me. Even if your father comes in front of her, he can only bow his head and obey."
In other people's families, when Mrs. Su is of age, she would have already left the housework to her daughter-in-law and enjoyed happiness herself. But Mrs. Su is not the case. She is almost seventy years old, and she still clings to the housework. She provides food and clothing for her daughter-in-law and granddaughters.
Mrs. Su has the final say on the cost.
Yu is now forty-seven years old. She is now a grandmother, and she still has to serve her mother-in-law every day. Mrs. Su often praises her daughter-in-law for her filial piety when she is away. Only Yu's sisters-in-law know how she feels.
Mrs. Su is determined to facilitate this marriage, who can stop her?
Su Jin felt miserable and raised her tearful eyes: "But, I already have someone I like in my heart."
How can a mother not know her daughter's thoughts?
Mrs. Yu asked in a low voice: "Is he your aunt's second cousin?"
Su Jin bit her lip and said nothing.
Mrs. Yu knew that she was right, and couldn't help but sigh again: "Siyuan comes from a scholarly family, and you and I are cousins and cousins who grew up together. We are considered to be of the same family. I originally thought about it.
, marry you to the Meng family, your aunt has always loved you, and you will live a good life as her daughter-in-law."
"It's just that your grandmother has told me three times, and also mentioned it in front of the Queen, that she wants you to be the Crown Princess. No one in the Su family can disobey your grandmother!"
Su Jin's shoulders kept shaking and tears fell like rain.
Mrs. Yu also shed tears.
The sick prince has no idea how many years he can live. How could she be willing to marry her precious daughter into a pit of fire?
…
Two days later, Queen Su from the palace sent someone to take Su Jin into the palace.
There were girls in the second and third bedrooms of the Su family waiting to be married, but Queen Su only summoned Su Jin. The implications of this move were known to everyone in the Su family.
Mrs. Yu felt very annoyed as she listened to her two sisters-in-law being sour in public and secretly.
The Su family is so prosperous, but it is her daughter who is unlucky. How can they, who are so privileged, have the face to say sarcastic words?
Su Jin reluctantly entered the Jinluan Hall.
Probably because her appearance is similar to that of her biological aunt when she was young, her aunt really likes her the most and treats her very well.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and Jin'er has become more and more energetic." The prince has been in a happy mood recently, and Queen Su is also in a good mood, with a smile on her face like a spring breeze.
Su Jin smiled shyly: "Jin'er is ashamed to be praised by the queen."
Queen Su smiled and held Su Jin's hand: "There are no outsiders here, so there is no need to be so reserved. Just call me aunt."
Su Jin then changed her title and called her aunt, chatting with Queen Su. She had to bring out the banquet the day before yesterday to joke about it.
Queen Su was very interested in hearing this and asked with a smile, "Is this Miss Zhao Liu really so beautiful and talented?"
Su Jin was also a proud and arrogant girl. She had never been so convinced by anyone before. She smiled and praised: "She is outstanding in all aspects of music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Especially calligraphy. She can actually write in multiple fonts."
Zhao Yuanming was famous for his calligraphy since he was a child.
It seems that Zhao Xiyan inherited her father's talent.
Queen Su didn't know what she thought of, and she looked dazed for a moment.
Su Jin did not notice the strangeness of Queen Su and continued to praise: "The most rare thing is that she speaks and acts with integrity and order, and is not afraid of power. That day, Murong Yan was left speechless."
Empress Su calmed down and said with a smile: "Jun'er and Prince Beihai will come later, and I have to tell them these interesting stories."
When Su Jin heard the name of the prince, his smile paused slightly and he lowered his eyelids.
After studying in the study room, the prince came with Xu Jing as expected.
In the past few days, three more princes and princes have arrived, and they have all settled in the palace.
The prince had a gentle temper and got along well with everyone. However, his favorite was Xu Jing. He invited Xu Jing to come to Jiaofang Hall for lunch every day.
Queen Su was very happy when she saw that her son had a playmate. The presence of Xu Jing in the slightly lonely Jiaofang Palace also added a lot of joy.
Su Jin stepped forward to greet him: "Su Jin has met His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Crown Prince."
The prince smiled and said, "Cousin Jin, please get up."
Xu Jing's eyes glanced casually and then moved away.
Since he was ten years old, he has only had Yue Yaer's sister in his heart! He has never cared about whether other girls are beautiful or not. Anyway, they are not as good-looking as Yue Yaer's sister.
Su Jin was very curious about Xu Jing and took a few glances quietly.
Well, he is quite handsome, barely worthy of Sister Zhao Liu.
Queen Su told the interesting story about the lotus appreciation banquet.
The prince laughed when he heard this.
Xu Jing looked proud and raised the corners of his mouth: "This is nothing. Sister Yue Yaer can also make preserved fruit snacks!"
The prince often heard Xu Jing praise his fiancée, and his ears almost felt calloused. He smiled casually and said: "One day I will leave the palace with you and meet Miss Zhao Liu."
Unexpectedly, Xu Jing immediately refused: "No!"
The prince was amused: "What? You are afraid that I will steal your fiancée!"
It can be seen that those who are close to vermillion are red and those who are close to ink are black. In the past, His Highness the Crown Prince never joked like this.
Xu Jing grinned: "I'm afraid that if I couldn't help but strike, it would be bad if I beat His Highness the Crown Prince."
The prince smiled again and looked at Su Jin naturally.
