Chapter 363: Father and Son Quarrel
Good man, it turns out he had been planning this for a long time.
As smart and resourceful as he is, he knew the interests involved early on, so he was unwilling to enter the officialdom at first. He just asked the emperor for a big pie in case of emergency, and he is waiting here.
What the emperor promised in the Hall of Supreme Harmony was his golden word, and he had to accept it.
Duke Jiang was stunned by his action. He said that when he did that, he knew that the boy had bad intentions.
"Nonsense! The Emperor did agree to your request. Some estrangements and suspicions are built up invisibly. How can I allow you to do such nonsense, including the hundreds of people in the Jiang family's branch branches and the entire Jiang Guo Mansion?"
Everyone can see that Minister Su has talent, and he will definitely not stop at the position of Minister in the future. I am also aware of Su Chen's ability, he is the best among the younger generation, and he will not stop at the position of Lieutenant General of the City Defense Battalion. The Su family will be glorious in the future. If you marry into their family now, with the power of 100,000 soldiers in my hands, what do you want His Majesty to think?
"Let's not talk about the Duke of Jiang's Mansion, you have to consider the Su family too! The Su family has just risen to prominence, are they going to give up their future glory just because of this marriage?"
Duke Jiang was also considering the long-term benefits, and he was not forcibly breaking up the couple.
If he were the emperor, he might think that they were plotting a rebellion.
Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger. Since ancient times, those in power have been suspicious. The lives of hundreds of people depend on him, so how can he not take it seriously?
"My marriage is my own decision. At worst, I won't become the prince of the Duke's Mansion. I still have Fengyue Villa anyway, but you can't stop me from marrying anyone."
Jiang Yu knew everything, so he didn't need to explain himself.
But he was determined to marry her, and no one could stop him.
When Duke Jiang heard what he said, he angrily slammed the table and pointed at him and cursed:
"Unfilial son, listen to what you are saying. You are the only legitimate son of the Duke of Jiang's family. In the future, only you can hold this position. Now, for the sake of your own love, you are willing to disregard the lives of your entire family. You are simply unreasonable. I indulge you for your mother's sake, not to allow you to act so unreasonably."
Speaking of Jiang Yu's mother, Jiang Yu snorted coldly:
"Are you worthy of mentioning my mother? Now you're talking about me like this, but back then, you ignored the opposition of the entire clan and insisted on marrying my mother?
After you got married, you ignored your promise to my mother, married that woman, and even had a child with her. Are you worthy of her?"
"It was an accident. I was forced to do it." Duke Jiang was in the wrong, but he did not forget to refute, but his voice became weaker.
"Were you forced to do this? If you hadn't indulged your grandmother in her mischief, crying, making a fuss, and even threatening to hang herself, and been blindly filial, none of these things would have happened." Jiang Yu said, standing up excitedly.
His mother is his Achilles' heel, and he holds a great grudge against Duke Jiang because of his mother.
At the beginning, Madam Jiang cried, made a fuss, and even threatened to hang herself, and then went on a hunger strike before forcing Duke Jiang to surrender.
Originally, he thought that she would just be a decoration in the mansion, but the old lady used the most disgusting method to send Ning Wei to his bed, and they got pregnant.
In fact, as long as he stood firmer, with Madam Jiang's personality, could she really starve herself to death?
Because of these things, Jiang Yu's mother had many conflicts with Duke Jiang, but later she let it go for the sake of her children. However, her health deteriorated and she only reported good news to her grandfather, but not bad news. In the end, she died of old age and was unable to recover.
Jiang Yu has always suspected that Ning Wei and the old lady were involved in his mother's death, but the old lady has passed away and many things cannot be verified.
At first, she disliked Jiang Xinrou very much, hated her, mocked her, and praised Ning Wei. If a person dislikes someone, everything that person does is wrong.
In the end, the father and son parted ways unhappily. Duke Jiang was so angry that he overturned the table, and Jiang Yu finally left in anger.
The spies arranged by Ning Wei only knew that the father and son had a big quarrel, but they knew nothing about the content of the quarrel.
Jiang Yu did not leave the Duke of Jiang's Mansion, but just returned to his own courtyard.
He was determined about this matter. As he said, he would rather not be this shabby prince and marry Su Wan.
Moreover, the reason why Duke Jiang flipped the table was because Jiang Yu said in a fit of anger:
"Even if you don't agree, even if you don't agree with me becoming a live-in son-in-law, I still want to be with her."
Regarding the self-cultivation of a qualified love-brained person, he always remembered what Su's mother said, that she was reluctant to let her daughter get married, and if possible, she would find a live-in son-in-law.
However, he drank too much tonight, so it was partly due to the alcohol.
What would happen if Duke Jiang heard this?
What magic did Princess Xuanle have that could make her usually calm, self-possessed, and aloof son so obsessed?
But he seemed to have forgotten that he had been through the same thing himself. Fate is cruel and there is no medicine for regret.
…
The next morning, in the main hall of the Su Mansion.
All the red silk in the mansion had been removed, leaving only the red lanterns.
Su's father and mother waited for their daughter-in-law to come and serve tea all morning.
However, they also sympathized with the newlyweds and thought they might arrive a little late.
So, he asked the children to have breakfast first, but unexpectedly, the couple arrived at the dining room on time.
Su Jing supported his newlywed wife affectionately, and Shen Qingli leaned on his shoulder softly.
My eldest brother looked rosy and refreshed, and my eldest sister-in-law had a pair of beautiful eyes, but there were dark circles under her eyes. She had covered them up with powder in the morning, but the effect was not obvious.
Her temperament also became more charming overnight, like a peach that has finally ripened in season.
Everyone understood, Su Wan was grinning from ear to ear, and so was Su's mother.
It seems that her wish of becoming a grandmother is about to come true.
"Dad, Mom, your son and Elder Qingli are here to serve you tea."
The servants brought up hot tea, and Su's father and mother sat on the high hall, having already prepared red envelopes.
There was a red paper with the word "happiness" written on it, and some silver notes were wrapped inside, a small token of appreciation for the daughter-in-law as her own pocket money.
Shen Qingli held the tea and called them dad and mom one by one. Father and mother Su smiled so hard that their eyes narrowed into slits.
I'm so happy to have a good wife.
Su Wan looked at this scene. His parents looked happy. Now they were healthy, and his eldest brother's face was filled with happiness.
It’s great that she changed their fate.
After serving tea, the family sat down to have breakfast, with laughter and joy throughout the meal.
The eldest brother and the second brother each picked up some food for their wives.
Su Mu had a hangover the night before. When he woke up in the morning, he found Sun Ling'er sleeping next to him. He felt ashamed of his behavior towards her last night.
This was the first time he pressed her down and kissed her like this.
As a result, Su Mu didn't dare to look Sun Ling'er in the eye this morning.
Sun Ling'er didn't think there was anything wrong. The more unnatural it was, the more likely it was something fishy.
However, she was also relieved that the child finally got it.
