The old Duke agreed: "Yes, anyone who dares to come to the Duke's Mansion and act wild must be killed."
[She has been killed. It was not Qingge, but Liu Yiyi's maid, who was sent by Prince Duan.]
The old lady frowned slightly. This Prince Duan would never stop. She had to be on guard against him in the future.
The old Duke sighed deeply. The Emperor really shouldn't have considered the relationship between brothers. It's not a good thing to raise a tiger to cause trouble! The Duke's Mansion also suffered.
If his little granddaughter had not been extraordinary, she would have been in danger today. The Duke of Huguo's Mansion cannot be without a little granddaughter. She is the little fairy who protects the Chu family.
The old lady was overjoyed to find her granddaughter again. She was reluctant to let go of her. However, Chu Xiaoxiao kept shouting, "I'm hungry."
After returning the little granddaughter to Yang, the old lady instructed her to take good care of her, and then went back with the old duke.
The Duke of Huguo's Mansion did not want the carriage outside the door. They were not interested in things of unknown origin.
Strangely enough, after the horse brought the child back, it seemed to know its mission was accomplished, so it turned around and walked away slowly.
No one knows where he went.
After this incident, Yang dared not leave Chu Xiaoxiao's side no matter day or night.
A few days later, Yang asked someone to go to General Weiwu's mansion to propose marriage. The general's wife naturally knew about this, and her daughter had already told her about it when she came back.
She never expected that the concubine's daughter whom she had always looked down upon would have such an opportunity. She actually fell off a cliff and was rescued by the eldest son of the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
Su Qinghui opposed this marriage: "Mother! You can't agree to the proposal from the Duke of Huguo's mansion. Su Qingran, that little bitch, is not worthy of her. The marriage was originally for me, but now it has become hers. I feel uncomfortable."
The general's wife stretched out her finger and tapped her daughter's head hard, expressing her disappointment in her daughter.
"How dare you say that? Wang Yuling has been visiting Su Qingran every day recently, but has she ever visited you once?
The old lady at the Duke's Mansion has already made it final about what happened that day. If we don't agree to this marriage, and anything happens to Su Qingran, it will all be the fault of the Mighty General's Mansion.
Hui'er! Isn't it enough that you have caused so much trouble? If Su Qingran's marriage is in trouble, who will dare to associate with our family in the future? Your father doesn't care about our life or death, we have to find a way out ourselves. "
Su Qinghui was furious: "I just can't stand that bitch stepping on my face to climb up. Why should she marry into the Huguogong Mansion? Why should I marry a son-in-law in my home?"
The wife of the mighty general is overwhelmed because her daughter is so willful. Fortunately, there are no grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins in the backyard.
Otherwise, with her personality, even marrying into the family might be considered a disgrace to the family, and she would have to be sent to the temple to become a nun.
"Hui'er! You and Su Qingran are sisters after all. If she gets better, maybe she can help us in the future.
Your father will come back eventually. We have not treated him and that woman's child badly. For the sake of this friendship, he cannot treat you badly.
At this point, mother really regrets it. Why couldn't she tolerate that woman? If I had always treated her very well, your father would have to respect me for her sake even if he didn't like me.
What is this like now? She is no longer an abandoned wife, nor a mistress. In the long night, I don’t even have anyone to talk to. Hui’er! You must never walk my path again.
Su Qinghui frowned and stood up to leave. She didn't want to see her mother talking to her aunt about Su Qingran. But she knew in her heart that she couldn't stop this.
Whether she likes it or not, Su Qingran will marry into the Duke of Huguo's Mansion.
The old lady and Yang prepared a generous betrothal gift and sent it to the mighty general's mansion. The general's wife was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She told everyone she met that Su Qingran had been hers since she was a child and was the second legitimate daughter of the general's mansion.
No one cares whether it is true or not.
Whether it's a concubine's daughter or a legitimate daughter, the old lady and Yang only want people and don't consider anyone else.
Chu Yifei's marriage was arranged, and next it was the turn of Chu Zhixi's daughter Chu Lianlian. She was the same age as Chu Yimo, but was born half a year earlier than Chu Yimo.
So she is the older sister.
Prince Duan was afraid of the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, and the old lady meant to marry someone of lower status, which was the same as Chu Yifei marrying someone of lower status.
As soon as the news of Chu Yifei's engagement spread, many of the old lady's former friends, including Yang's sisters, wailed collectively.
They all said that this marriage was inappropriate, that the disparity in status was too great, and that Chu Yifei was wronged.
Yang and the old lady had no choice but to explain that they had no choice, which brought up the story of the hill behind Baiyan Temple again.
Otherwise, I can’t suppress the tears of my friends.
The son of the Chu family has not grown up yet, and not only the emperor is watching him, but even the noble ladies of various aristocratic families in Kyoto are watching him. Who made the backyard of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion so clean?
The rule of the Chu family is to only marry one wife, not to take concubines, and to not allow having a concubine or anything like that.
Any daughter who marries into this family is blessed, but such a good thing happened to the concubine's daughter of the mighty general's mansion. They are so envious and jealous.
Regarding Chu Lianlian's marriage, the old lady also wanted to hear Chu Xiaoxiao's opinion to see if she had any good suggestions and opinions.
She now likes to stay with her little granddaughter very much. She talks to her about everything and listens to what she thinks. It is very interesting.
The old Duke also loved to be around his little granddaughter. There were several sick orchids in his orchid garden. When the little granddaughter went there and touched those orchids with her hands, all of them came back to life.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you would never believe it.
"The eldest daughter-in-law? Some people have proposed the second son of the Duke of Chengguo, the fifth grandson of the Grand Tutor, and the third son of the Prime Minister. Which one do you think is better?"
I think the prime minister's third son is better. I heard he is a steady man with good family education. What do you think?"
Yang knew that the old lady's question was quite meaningful, so she did not rush to answer and waited to hear what her daughter Xiaoxiao had to say.
[The second son of the Duke of Chengguo is not a good person. One of his concubines got pregnant, so he married to cover up the scandal.]
old lady:"......"
So that's how it is. No wonder the people from Duke Cheng's Mansion came the most frequently, having come three times already. The matchmaker's mouth was as sweet as honey, and she kept praising her granddaughter.
Yang: “…”
If that's the case, then we really can't keep it. It's against the rules to have a bastard before getting married.
[The fifth grandson of the Grand Tutor's Mansion is a good person, but his brain is not very good, and he is also a short-lived ghost. ]
What? Then I can’t marry this one either.
Wouldn’t a short-lived woman be a widow if she married him?
The old lady curled her lips and eliminated this.
Yang also thought so. It would be better not to marry a short-lived man as it would bring suffering to her eldest niece.
[Humph! The prime minister's third son is a bad man. When the Duke of Huguo's Mansion fell, he sold Sister Lianlian to a brothel. ]
The old lady frowned, her eyes suddenly stern. This prime minister's third son is really not a human being. He sold his wife to a brothel? How could he think of that?
Yang was also very surprised and felt even more sad in her heart. The Duke of Huguo's Mansion was gone, and although the daughters who married out would not be beheaded, their lives would actually not be much better than beheading.
