Chapter 447: She can’t afford the current Su family
Madam Zheng's expression was a little unnatural, but Old Madam Su smiled naturally and said, "Madam, it is a great honor for our humble home to have you here."
After saying that, he took Madam Zheng's arm and said enthusiastically, "I'll show you my new home. Although it's not ready yet, it's much more spacious than before."
"Before, when Madam came, my house was too small and I felt embarrassed to invite her to stay for a while. But it will be different from now on. If Madam gets bored staying in the county town, she can come here for a while and relax and recuperate..."
"Madam, you know that we have beautiful mountains and rivers here. In spring, the mountain flowers are in full bloom, and in autumn, the wild fruits on the mountain are ripe. Whether you come here for an outing or to pick fruits, it is a pleasure..."
As Old Lady Su spoke, the unnatural look on Mrs. Zheng's face disappeared unconsciously.
The whole person became comfortable and happy.
"Hearing you say that, I can't wait to stay here right away." Mrs. Zheng said with a smile.
"That's great." Old Madam Su said with a smile, "The house is spacious now. If Madam doesn't mind, you can stay for a few more days..."
Old Mrs. Su and Mrs. Zheng were laughing and chatting happily, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Mrs. Zheng did not realize that from the moment she entered the Su family, the pace of the situation was controlled by Old Lady Su.
In the past, no matter how pleasant she appeared to be when she came to the Su family, deep down she still had a sense of superiority in her status.
Now that her status has changed, her sense of superiority is gone, and it has turned into resentment.
That unwillingness made her feel a little uncomfortable when facing Old Madam Su.
However, Mrs. Su was very tactful and courteous in her hospitality, which made the guest feel very comfortable and experienced what it meant to be at home.
As a result, I was sincerely convinced and no longer felt any resentment.
I even sighed in my heart that she was indeed the daughter of a wealthy family.
"Mom, where do we put those things?" Boss Su came over and pointed at the rewards on the ground and asked.
Mrs. Zheng stood beside Old Lady Su and subconsciously looked in the direction where Old Lady Su pointed.
Those things were blocked by someone just now, so she didn't notice them.
Only now do I realize how rare those things are.
Mrs. Zheng felt dizzy and her head felt a little lightheaded.
Jade screens, coral trees, large screens depicting beauties from the imperial kilns...
Mrs. Zheng's heart couldn't stop beating wildly.
Any one of these is worth a fortune.
Has the Su family become so wealthy?
"Put it in the easternmost room for now. That room will be used as a warehouse from now on."
Used to save up dowry for Tang Bao.
The last sentence was said by Old Mrs. Su in her heart.
"I understand, Mom." Boss Su agreed and took a few people to carry the things carefully.
Madam Zheng calmed her heartbeat and asked, "Are these all rewards from the palace?"
Old Madam Su nodded and said, "It's all thanks to the Emperor's grace. Originally, most of this was my late mother's dowry. The Emperor was so kind that he gave it to me."
Mrs. Zheng was amazed. No wonder she heard that the dowry of the Duke of England's wife caused a sensation in the entire capital.
"Hello, Madam." Little Tangbao came over obediently and greeted Madam Zheng.
When Mrs. Zheng saw Xiao Tangbao, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Fuya, do you miss your aunt?" Mrs. Zheng asked with a smile.
Little Sugar Baby, "...want to."
It's impossible!
However, this sentence seems to have become the Zheng family's signature saying.
Whether it was County Magistrate Zheng and his son, or Madam Zheng, the first thing they said when they saw her was this.
"It turns out that Auntie's love for you is not in vain." Madam Zheng said happily, "Come on, take Auntie to see your room. If there is anything missing, Auntie will buy it for you."
Mrs. Zheng excitedly went to Xiao Tangbao's room, and was shocked to find that -
There was a half-person-high glass mirror placed in Xiao Tangbao's room.
Mrs. Zheng's eyes widened.
"Is this glass mirror also a gift from the emperor?" Mrs. Zheng asked in surprise.
Could it be that this kind of glass mirror was included in the dowry of the British Duchess decades ago?
Oh my God! How rich is the family of that British Duchess?
Fortunately, the next moment, Mrs. Su said, "This was brought back by the third son."
"Third son? Your third son is back?" Mrs. Zheng felt like she had been hit by many shocks today.
In fact, it was not just her. The people of the entire Daliushu Village felt shocked.
Of course, everyone in the Su family felt the same way.
Old Mrs. Su smiled happily and said, "The third son is back, and he brought his wife with him."
Mrs. Zheng was stunned.
young married woman?
Doesn’t the third son of the Su family have a wife at home?
Mrs. Zheng naturally didn't know that Zhang Maila had left the Su family.
However, when she saw Mrs. Su's expression, she didn't dare to ask.
After all, it is normal for a man to have three or four wives.
I just don’t know who is the wife and who is the concubine.
Moreover, since the third son of the Su family was able to bring back such a rare item, he must have made a fortune outside.
Mrs. Zheng suddenly had a strange feeling, as if her family background and wealth would be surpassed by the Su family every time she hesitated.
For example, when he was going to marry into the Su family, he disliked Fu Ya because she was a country girl. However, not long after, the country girl became the village chief, and her status was higher than that of his own son.
For example, some time ago, I wanted to become sisters with Madam Su, but while I was hesitating, Madam Su became a sixth-rank Anren, which was higher than my status.
In the end, my son and Fuya couldn't get married, and I couldn't bring up the idea of becoming sworn sisters anymore...
When Mrs. Zheng thought about this, she couldn't help but feel a little horrified.
The Su family used to look down on me, and now I can’t even reach them...
Could it be that what my master said really came true?
"You're just like the people in your Ye family. You're shallow-minded! Short-sighted! Busy and calculating all the time! Your niece Mingyan is just like you! If I had known your Ye family had such a tradition, I shouldn't have married you! Humph! Sooner or later, the future of the Zheng family will be ruined by you!"
Mrs. Zheng's heart began to beat fast when she thought of what Magistrate Zheng had said.
Is she really wrong?
"What's wrong with Madam? Are you feeling unwell?" When Old Mrs. Su saw that Madam Zheng's expression suddenly became a little ugly, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Madam Zheng quickly collected herself and said with a smile, "It's okay. I'm probably a little tired from the bumpy ride."
"In that case, Madam, please rest in Tang Bao's room for a while." Old Madam Su said, "The other rooms haven't been tidied up yet, but Tang Bao's room was the first to be tidied up."
But that’s not the case. Not only does the Su family always put little Tangbao first in everything they do.
This is true for everyone in Daliushu Village.
Whether it was moving boxes or making beds and hanging curtains, a group of aunts and ladies all rushed to do it.
It seems like it is an honor to put a stool in Xiaotangbao's room.
So, Xiao Tangbao's room was the first to be cleaned up.
