Shen Ying's words were well-reasoned and her tone was one of doing it for Su Qingyu's own good.
According to Shen Ying's idea, after she said this, Su Qingyu should refuse it as much as possible after knowing the origin of this headgear.
At that time, this set of headgear will be taken back by grandmother. No matter who it is passed on to, it will be better than giving it to Su Qingyu.
However, Su Qingyu did not become as apprehensive as Shen Ying had thought when she heard the origin of the headgear.
She was indeed surprised that such a valuable thing was suddenly given to her.
But the thing was given by the old lady and brought by Shen Zhixiu, which meant that the two heads of the Shen family agreed to give it to her.
If she insisted on refusing, she would probably offend the old lady.
In addition, the more Shen Ying said this, the more she didn't want to follow Shen Ying's wishes.
Su Qingyu thought for a moment and said, "So she came from the palace. No wonder she looks so exquisite and noble."
She didn't say yes or no, and planned to see what the old lady said first.
Just as she thought, the old lady glared at Shen Ying and said, “I gave it to you, so if I say it’s suitable, then it’s suitable.”
Then she turned to Su Qingyu with a smile on her face and said, "I told you to keep it, so just keep it with peace of mind. You've seen so many good things, you don't think much of this gift from an old woman like me."
Su Qingyu hurriedly said, "Thank you very much, old lady. Qingyu will listen to you."
As he said this, he told Feicui to accept the jewelry.
Shen Yue rolled her eyes at Shen Ying, then took Su Qingyu's hand and said, "Sister Su, this is what grandma gave you, so just accept it with peace of mind. Some people are just jealous, so don't take what they say to heart."
Shen Ying was so angry that she wanted to go forward and argue, but when she saw Shen Zhizheng looking at her coldly, she immediately swallowed the words that were on the tip of her tongue.
After they sat together and had lunch, Shen Zhixiu sent someone to send Su Qingyu back.
When only Shen Zhixiu and the old lady were left in the room, and the servants came in with tea and left, the old lady finally asked him, "Tell me, why did you change the golden hairdo I chose?"
Shen Zhixiu said seriously, "Hasn't the Crown Prince set his sights on her? I plan to have her wear this set of Dongzhu headdress when she enters the palace. The Crown Prince dislikes the extravagance of noble ladies."
The old lady looked at Shen Zhixiu inquiringly, "Is that the reason? If that's the reason, I have so many luxurious headpieces in my storeroom, why did you choose this one given by the late Empress Dowager?"
It's not that she's reluctant to part with them, she's old and doesn't care about these worldly possessions. When she's gone, these things will all be divided among the younger generations.
But Shen Zhixiu had chosen this approach, and she was curious about what he was thinking. This youngest son was too deep-minded, and she often couldn't see through him.
Shen Zhixiu subconsciously touched his chin and said, "If we wear this into the palace, everyone in the palace will know the attitude of our Shen family."
The old lady was startled at first, then burst out laughing.
"You actually came up with this idea. What's the matter? Are you worried that your unmarried wife will be bullied after entering the palace?"
"Don't worry, this girl is not weak and easy to bully."
Shen Zhixiu raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's not easy for me to marry a wife at my age, I have to protect her."
Old Madam Shen had just picked up the teacup and took a sip, but when she heard the words, she almost spit out a mouthful of tea.
Pointing at Shen Zhixiu, he said, "You, you, you dare to say such words."
Since he was eighteen, his family had been looking for a wife for him. However, he had been so absorbed in his career that he hadn't found a single partner. She didn't want to force her son, so she put it off.
After laughing, Madam Shen looked at Shen Zhixiu seriously again, "It seems that this marriage that happened by mistake has touched your heart."
"Perhaps this is fate. If you hadn't reported your death, this marriage would never have been possible."
Shen Zhixiu smiled but said nothing, neither admitting nor explaining, but there was a hint of tenderness between his relaxed brows that was rarely seen in his usual appearance.
After a while, Wen Zhu suddenly walked in and whispered, "Third Master, the banquet at the Duke of Wei's Mansion is over. The Marquis of Zhongyi sent a message saying he wants to see you for something."
The old lady looked at him suspiciously, "Didn't you say the banquet was rescheduled?"
Shen Zhixiu coughed lightly to hide the embarrassment in his eyes, stood up and said, "Son has something else to do, so I won't chat with my mother anymore."
The old lady looked at his back and shook her head slightly, a smile on her lips. In another two or three years, the little grandson will be able to run around everywhere, right?
--------------------
A few days later, Feicui asked someone to make a waterproof fire starter and showed it to Su Qingyu.
"Well done, just as I expected. Keep an eye on the young master for the next few days. Especially watch if he brings anything strange into the house, like a small bucket or something like that."
She remembered that in her previous life, Xu Liangping had even custom-made portable buckets for this very purpose, giving two to each of his friends. They all set out from their respective homes and gathered at the Xu family's warehouse where they set off fireworks at night.
I don't know if that loser Su Yuankai can be chosen by Xu Liangping. But seeing how happy Su Yuankai has been these past few days, I'm afraid he has become familiar with Xu Liangping.
Jade knew that the matter was of great importance, so she and Agate took turns staring at Su Yuankai for twelve hours.
On the day that Lin came out of confinement, Su Qingyu went to have dinner with her.
After dinner, the mother and daughter leaned on the kang and talked privately.
"Mom, when Mr. Zhou came to check your pulse yesterday, he said you've almost recovered. You can take a few more doses of the medicine and then you won't need to continue."
Lin held Su Qingyu's hand and said, "From today on, I will take care of all the trivial matters in the mansion. You can focus on preparing for your marriage."
