Chapter 1098: If I had known this, I would have married Da Pan
Several ladies heard the noise here and turned their heads to look over. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but nod secretly.
She is indeed the eldest daughter of the royal family. Such demeanor is not something an ordinary lady can possess.
It has to be said that compared to Xuanyuan Min, Xuanyuan Hui seems to know how to advance and retreat appropriately, and has the demeanor of the eldest daughter of a royal family.
However, the meaning behind these words is very thought-provoking.
Unfortunately, Princess Linghua didn't hear it.
"Forget it. In terms of seniority, I am also her aunt, so I won't bother with her, a junior." Princess Linghua waved her hand and said, "It's just that she is not young anymore. She speaks and acts so arrogantly, rudely, recklessly and impulsively. She really needs to be disciplined!"
As soon as Princess Linghua finished speaking, even Xuanyuan Hui's expression changed slightly.
There was no way. If Princess Linghua's words were to spread, Xuanyuan Min's reputation would definitely be greatly affected.
By then, Xuanyuan Hui's reputation will also be tarnished.
After all, the girls in the family share the same fate.
"The princess is right." Xuanyuan Hui said with a somewhat unnatural expression: "Hui'er will definitely discipline her sister well in the future."
"Sister?!" Xuanyuan Min widened her eyes in disbelief.
Tang Bao was also a little bit unbelievable.
Isn't this too much to bear?
Tang Bao clearly discovered that Xuanyuan Hui was about to lose control.
But between breaths, he endured it again.
Although Tang Bao felt that what Princess Linghua said was absolutely right.
However, from Xuanyuan Hui's perspective, she would definitely save her sister's reputation.
After all, when she apologized just now, her words were very technical.
Tang Bao looked at Xuanyuan Hui and then at Xuanyuan Min.
I was wondering in my mind, but I wondered which of these sisters the old concubine of Prince Rong's Mansion originally wanted to marry into my family?
Xuanyuan Hui?
Unlikely...
Tang Bao shook her head secretly.
The most important thing for wealthy families is to marry someone of equal social status.
My family is not of high status. Although my fifth brother is the top scholar, the Su family has no title and no family background.
If there is no one to support you, it is very easy to disappear in the workplace.
Not only that, the fifth brother is not the eldest son.
When wealthy families marry, they not only pay attention to the matching of family backgrounds, but also pay attention to the words "legitimate" and "eldest".
In a family, most of the property is inherited by the eldest son...
What's more, considering the status of Prince Rong's Mansion, they would probably not marry their eldest daughter to a family of unknown status.
Based on this inference, the person that Prince Rong’s Mansion wants to marry should be the second daughter Xuanyuan Min.
After some deduction, Tang Bao had a rough idea in his mind.
In this case, Xuanyuan Min must be unhappy if he knows about this.
That's why he specifically targeted Princess Linghua, who was close to him...
Tang Bao figured out the reason behind this, and when she looked at Princess Linghua, she couldn't help but feel a little apologetic.
It can be seen that Princess Linghua was caught in the crossfire.
Here, Xuanyuan Hui glanced at Xuanyuan Min coldly. Strangely, Xuanyuan Min looked aggrieved and shut his mouth.
The storm ended just like that.
Princess Linghua was like a victorious peacock, holding her head high as she glanced at the girl in red clothes, Song Xiangyan, and the girls who were secretly laughing at her.
Song Xiangyan's face looked grim. She glared at Princess Linghua and turned her head away.
The other girls were obviously Xuanyuan Min and Song Xiangyan's followers.
Seeing that Xuanyuan Min and Song Xiangyan were defeated, he naturally didn't dare to say anything.
"That Song Xiangyan is the niece of Consort Shu." Xia Siya whispered to Tang Bao, "The one in the pink dress is Zhou Mi, the legitimate daughter of Minister Zhou, and the one in the yellow dress is the concubine's daughter of Marquis Dingyuan..."
As soon as Xia Siya finished speaking, Princess Linghua said disdainfully, "These people are just minions. They only know how to flatter Xuanyuan Min all day long!"
After saying that, he looked at Tang Bao again, with a gloating expression on his face.
"Su Tang, your fifth brother is so good, but it's a pity that Xuanyuan Min doesn't like him. Just wait and see, she will definitely cause trouble for you soon."
Princess Linghua finished speaking, looking as if she was waiting to see a show.
Tang Bao: "...I can see that you have noticed it too."
Then should I apologize to you for getting you into trouble?
"Humph! I'm not stupid, how could I not see that?" Princess Linghua said proudly, "She knows you and I are good sisters. If she was happy with it, she would have come over to curry favor with me long ago. Why would she be so mean to me?"
Tang Bao: “…”
As expected, you can’t judge a book by its cover.
In this era, none of the young girls from wealthy families are simple.
Xia Siya was unhappy when she heard that.
"She looks down on Fifth Brother, and Fifth Brother looks down on her too!" Xia Siya said protectively, "How can she be worthy? If she were her sister, it would be a stretch..."
"Her sister is already discussing marriage with the Zheng family," Princess Linghua said. "I heard that Zheng Ziqian, the legitimate son of Prime Minister Zheng, has been appointed a scholar by the Emperor and will soon be appointed to the Imperial Academy. Both families are eager for a double celebration, so I'm afraid the marriage will be finalized in a few days..."
After hearing what Princess Linghua said, Tang Bao looked towards Xuanyuan Hui.
I saw Xuanyuan Huizheng and Zheng Suxin sitting together, talking about something with slightly red faces.
Well, this should be because I love the person and the dog, and I want to improve their favorability.
Princess Linghua continued, "My elder sister married the son of the Prime Minister of the dynasty, whose family background is prominent. She also has the support of the Imperial Concubine who is in charge of the six palaces. My younger sister must be unwilling to marry into the Su family, whose family background is not prominent..."
When Princess Linghua said this, her thoughts jumped and she looked at Xia Siya.
"By the way, isn't Zheng Ziqian, the son of the Zheng family, good friends with your fiancé, the Third Young Master of the Bai family?" Princess Linghua asked, "Who knows, will you be friends with Xuanyuan Hui in the future?"
"But then again, someone like Xuanyuan Hui is the first choice for an excellent daughter-in-law. In comparison, if you associate with her, I'm afraid you can only be a supporting role, making you look even less impressive than her..."
"So, I suggest you stay away from her in the future, lest you become someone else's stepping stone without realizing it."
Princess Linghua had a few more words to say. After she returned home, she heard Concubine Liu mention that the person the Rong Palace had originally wanted to marry was actually the third young master of the Bai family.
However, the Bai family suddenly discussed marriage with the Xia family, so Prince Rong's Mansion gave up the idea and instead chose Zheng Ziqian from the Zheng family.
It has to be said that the sudden marriage proposal between the Bai family and the Xia family shocked many wealthy families in the capital.
Bai Shuqing didn't brag.
At the beginning, Bai Shuzhi was indeed the son-in-law candidate that many wealthy families in Beijing were vying for.
Even after the news spread that the Bai family had decided to marry Xia Siya, many people secretly felt sorry for Bai Shuzhi.
Tang Bao didn't know the reason, and was stunned after hearing what Princess Linghua said.
She didn't expect that Princess Linghua could see things so clearly.
How could such a talented person get so stuck in such a dead end that he had to practice seclusion in Tianlong Temple for three years?
On the contrary, Xia Siya looked indifferent after hearing what Princess Linghua said.
"It's the same whether she's here or not. Our family isn't as well-off as the Bai family, so we'll always be looked down upon." Xia Siya said, "I'm not someone who can be bullied. It's okay if I'm being bullied behind her back."
Xia Siya paused and continued, "If anyone dares to pick on me in person, I don't care who she is. I will never tolerate it!"
Xia Siya spoke clearly and concisely, but she felt vaguely uneasy in her heart.
Especially today, after seeing the prosperity of Prince Rong's Mansion and so many young ladies from aristocratic families, I felt even more uncertain.
Can she really handle this kind of situation where there are so many intrigues and one sentence can take seven or eight turns?
Alas! Life in the Su family is still comfortable.
If she had known this earlier, she would not have been able to become a widow to Sixth Brother, and it would have been better for her to marry Da Pan...
Bah! What the hell is she thinking?!
Xia Siya was startled and woke up suddenly.
