Mrs. Jiang looked at Shen Minghe's leaving figure and frowned slightly. She was very dissatisfied, but it was hard to express her dissatisfaction in front of Shen Yu. She smiled at Shen Yu and pulled him to sit down again. road:
"Your father has a lot of things to do, so you don't have to worry about it. In the future, you have to learn how to deal with the ministers in the court, how to deal with people in the clan and the palace. Furthermore, according to my opinion, the family members You should also be clear about the general affairs, otherwise in the future, if there are unfaithful servants who use old rice as new rice and east pearls as southern pearls, if you don't know them, you will be taken advantage of by these people. You are a You are a good boy, unlike other children from aristocratic families who spend all day fighting with dogs and walking around in an awkward manner." After a pause, he continued:
"After the New Year, you will be eighteen. I have never made arrangements for you to marry me before, because I am worried that you have not yet made me the crown prince. This is a great skill in proposing marriage. There is a huge difference between the prince and the prince. Now your father is Once it’s settled, we can start organizing.”
After hearing this, Shen Yu felt a little excited. The reason why he didn't dare to talk to Shu Yao in front of Mrs. Jiang was because he knew that such private exchanges were against etiquette and would not be allowed by Mrs. Jiang. But now since If you tell him that you are kissing her, will you have a chance to approach her openly?
Originally, things between young people depended on the orders of parents and the words of matchmakers. If she had the support of adults, would she be able to look at him again?
He twisted slightly, picked up the tea cup at hand, and asked casually:
"Does mother have someone she likes? If there is no one in the capital, the families of those officials who are working abroad can also consider it."
When Mrs. Jiang heard this, her anger suddenly rose. It turned out that he still couldn't forget that Li Shuyao and was still thinking about her in his heart! Who did he refer to as the official who was sent to the outside world? Does it need to be said? It's a shame for her. I thought this child was a sensible person, but why did he become like this when he met a vixen?
It must be Li Shuyao who has caused a strange change in her formerly obedient and gentle son. He is obsessed with a daughter of a fifth-rank official who cannot stand up to the stage!
She placed the beads in her hand heavily on the table and said sternly:
"My son is confused! How can the officials who are sent abroad have the status of the wealthy families in the capital? If I want to marry you, the girl's family must be of first-class status. Which of the daughters of officials who are not in the upper class can be worthy? Do you want to learn about my son’s character and talent?”
Mrs. Jiang's sudden anger shocked Shen Yu. He had never thought about Shu Yao's identity. Since Shen Yan could marry her sister, why couldn't he marry her? At this time, he regarded Shen Yan as a concubine. Forgot completely!
Although Mrs. Jiang was usually gentle to him, when she really lost her temper, he would never dare to disobey her. At this time, she was already a little trembling. She quickly stood up from the chair, lowered her head and said:
"Mom, calm down!"
Mrs. Jiang's anger could not cool down so easily. She stroked her chest and looked at Shen Yu again. In her heart, she blamed him for being obsessed with his appearance. But her son was getting older and was about to become the heir apparent. He could no longer be the same as before. She lectured him casually like that during the time. Some things were enough to stop them. He also had to learn to grow up and learn to understand that the world was difficult. Only when he figured it out could he understand the painstaking efforts of her mother.
Mrs. Jiang slowly picked up the Buddhist beads on the table and twisted them carefully one by one. After a while, she slowly said:
"You have to know that mother's heart for you is always to give you the best. The position of the Crown Prince's wife is an honor to others and a help to you. You must not give it to someone who means nothing to you easily.
You are a useless person. You go back and think about what your mother said. Tomorrow is the second day of the Lunar New Year, so you get up early, pay your respects to the old lady, and then we will go to your uncle's house."
