Chapter 456: Is it possible to arrange a marriage for my brother?
As soon as Sun Manniang finished speaking, Madam Zheng was stunned.
Then, he patted Sun Manniang's hand soothingly.
"After all the hardships, happiness comes. Now you are the daughter-in-law of the Su family. Everything is fine." Madam Zheng said, "Your mother-in-law is a good-natured person with a kind heart. She treats her daughter-in-law very well. From now on, you will live a good life in the Su family."
Sun Manniang glanced at Madam Zheng gratefully and said, "Thank you for your kind words, Madam. My husband has told me many times that parents-in-law are the most generous and mothers-in-law love their daughters-in-law the most. Meeting you and marrying into the Su family is the greatest blessing in my life."
Mrs. Zheng nodded in agreement.
Old Mrs. Su never treated her daughter-in-law harshly, so she naturally knew this.
Moreover, she also knew that the men in the Su family loved their wives.
For an orphan like Sun Manniang who has no parents, marrying into the Su family is definitely a blessing.
Because many families would say that such orphans have a tough life and would be a little taboo about it.
Any family that is well-off will not marry such a daughter-in-law.
Xiao Tangbao said with a smile: "Third sister-in-law is right. Being able to marry Third Brother proves that Third Sister-in-law is blessed."
How can an unlucky person be her sister-in-law?
Little Tangbao is so confident!
All the men in the Su family love their wives. Just based on this point, marrying into the Su family is proof of blessing!
"Fuya is right!" the village chief's wife exclaimed, "Anyone without good fortune, like Zhang Maiya, could never become Fuya's sister-in-law!"
After saying that, he looked at Old Madam Su with a flattering expression and said, "Sister-in-law Su, your fifth son..."
Old Mrs. Su, “…”
She has said it many times that the fifth brother is not getting engaged for the time being.
The village chief's wife patted her chest and vowed, "I promise that my niece will definitely not look like me. My niece is much prettier than me..."
Old Madam Su said helplessly: "Aunt, my fifth son has achieved neither success nor fame. He is devoted to studying and has no intention of getting married..."
"Why haven't you achieved success or fame?" Grandma Sanzhu said, "The fifth son is now a scholar, and it's just the right time for him to get married! My relative said that her daughter doesn't want a penny of betrothal gifts from the Su family, and she also wants to bring a dowry of four quilts and four mattresses..."
"What's four beddings and four blankets? Aren't they just four mattresses and four quilts?" Eighth Aunt said disdainfully, "Mr. Wang from this town has said that if the Su family agrees to this marriage, not only will he not ask for a betrothal gift, but he will also give his daughter a house in this town, two shops, three old yellow cows, a large wardrobe with four doors, and five pieces of gold and silver jewelry with the meaning of good fortune, longevity, and happiness..."
The eighth aunt's chatter shocked the village head's wife and Grandma Sanzhu back.
Third Grandma glanced at Eighth Aunt and said slowly, "What does it matter if Mr. Wang's family gives a large dowry? Although the Fifth Brother is a scholar now, with our lucky girl by his side, he will definitely pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar in the future. By then, I'm afraid even the daughters of wealthy families will be vying to marry him. Who knows how much the dowry will be?"
As soon as Third Grandma finished her words, Eighth Aunt stopped arguing.
There was no way around it, everyone agreed with what Third Grandma said.
It is precisely because of this that they can't wait to arrange a marriage for Su Laowu.
If they wait until Su Laowu graduates from high school, they will be too embarrassed to propose marriage to him.
"I wonder who will be lucky enough to marry the fifth brother in the future?" The village chief's wife sighed and said with some regret: "I'm afraid my niece won't have this blessing..."
"I'm afraid my relative doesn't have this blessing either." Grandma Sanzhu said with some regret.
When Mrs. Zheng saw this situation, she couldn't help but think of her niece Ye Mingyan.
Could it be that... Mingyan is also an unlucky girl?
Prince Zhai of the Yongning Marquisate had personally promised Mingyan that he would marry her as his co-wife.
The status of a concubine of a marquis's son is much higher than that of a wife of a top scholar...
Although she thought so, for some reason, Mrs. Zheng suddenly felt uneasy.
"Then, where is your Xiaoliu?" The village chief's wife suddenly looked at Old Mrs. Su, her eyes lit up, and asked without giving up.
"Yes, yes, where's your Xiaoliu?" Grandma Sanzhu became excited again and said hurriedly, "My relatives have many daughters, and there are some who are the same age as Xiaoliu..."
"Your relatives have many daughters, but not as many as mine." Someone interrupted Grandma Sanzhu and said proudly, "I have twelve nieces and twenty-one nephews in total. Sister Su can choose whatever you want..."
"Good things should be kept within the family. Sister Su, what do you think of the girls in my family?" This is more direct. For the sake of the Su family's marriage, the girl's modesty is no longer a concern.
People gathered around Old Lady Su, talking about their relatives or daughters.
Old Madam Su rubbed her head and said, "My little six is still too young. There's a hierarchy of seniority. It's impossible for little six to get engaged before the fifth brother is engaged."
"Xiao Liu isn't taking the imperial examinations, so at worst we can just arrange a marriage and not get married..."
“That’s right…”
Old Mrs. Su, “…”
My son is so popular that it gives me a headache.
Sun Manniang watched all this in amazement.
It turns out that the men of the Su family are so popular!
It seems that if I had not met my husband by chance and received his promise, I would not have been able to enter the Su family with my current status.
Su Laosan was also surprised.
He didn't expect that his fifth brother had become a scholar and a talented scholar at that.
Given time, maybe I can go further and enter the official career...
Su Laosan's mood became excited.
Life at home is getting better and better, and his brothers are also successful. What could make him happier than this?
"Fuya, who do you want to be your sister-in-law?" The village chief's wife looked at Xiao Tangbao and asked eagerly, "Is the sister you saw at my door that day pretty? Can she be your sister-in-law?"
The words of the village chief's wife seemed to have ignited new skills.
People looked at Xiao Tangbao with burning eyes and bright eyes.
"Fuya, can you please bring a little sister over someday so you can take a look at her?"
"Fuya, what do you think of Sister Xinghua from my aunt's family?"
"Fuya..."
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
She is just a baby, can she arrange a marriage for her brother?
"Mom, the table is ready. Please take your seat, Madam." Mrs. Su came over and said.
Mrs. Su's words saved little Tangbao.
Little Tangbao quickly looked at his mother.
Old Mrs. Su said quickly: "Let's go eat quickly."
After saying that, he looked at Madam Zheng and said, "Madam, please."
Mrs. Zheng naturally took Xiao Tangbao's hand and followed Old Lady Su to the table.
Everyone's face was filled with regret that they couldn't get a positive answer from Xiao Tangbao.
However, it is also exciting to be able to sit down and eat meat.
So, that little regret was quickly dispelled by the aroma of meat.
