Chapter 766: The Best of Both Worlds
"Select some good things from the warehouse and send them to the Su family as a return gift someday." The old lady ordered.
"I understand, mother." The eldest lady agreed quickly.
The eldest lady is in charge of the household affairs, so it is natural for her to take care of such matters.
What's more, the eldest lady originally had this idea.
The Second Madam looked at the Anti-aging Cream in her hand like a treasure and said, "Mother, how did a little girl from the Su family get these things?"
The old lady: "..."
How would she know?
"No matter how she got it, she is capable enough to get this kind of thing! Remember, you must never offend her in the future." The old lady warned.
Just two bottles of health pills, how many days will it take for her to take them?
I'll have to ask again in the future if I can buy some...
The eldest lady naturally saw through the old lady's thoughts at a glance.
Because she also had such thoughts.
Not only the first lady had such thoughts, but the first and second masters also had the same thoughts.
But I’m afraid they won’t sell it…
The eldest lady glanced at the second lady and said unhappily, "Second sister-in-law, your words and actions today showed that you looked down on the young lady and despised her for her low social status. You and your daughter have offended the young lady so much. I wonder if she has angered the Bai family..."
If you get angry, you may not be able to buy it even if you spend a lot of money in the future.
If it were an ordinary family, they would naturally not dare to offend the Bai family.
However, this little girl has the Third Prince and the Empress Dowager behind her.
There might even be an emperor...
The only thing that the eldest lady was thankful for was that her family was going to marry into the Xia family.
In this way, with the relationship between Mrs. Xia and Xia Siya, maybe I can buy some.
As soon as the first lady finished speaking, the second lady's face changed.
"I was just telling the truth. With our Bai family's status, how could the Su family be worthy of it?" The Second Madam said confidently, "I didn't know at the time that she had such a good thing in her hands?"
The Second Madam paused at this point, then complained with a hint of frustration, "Besides, who knew she was so lucky? Not only did the Empress Dowager want to adopt her as her granddaughter, but in order to help her, she even ignored her mother's family, the Bai family, and the Third Prince treated her like the apple of his eye..."
When the second wife finished speaking, there was a taste of lemon in her mouth.
Although everyone knew that the Third Prince was good to the little girl from the Su family, no one expected that he would be so good to her.
It has to be said that even the eldest lady and others were a little envious of Tang Bao's good luck.
Why doesn’t my daughter have such good fortune?
After the Second Madam finished speaking, she thought for a moment and continued, "Mother, you also said that we should befriend the young lady from the Su family. In my opinion, why don't we marry her into our family..."
Although the Su family is of humble status and not worthy of the Bai family, the little girl has good things in her hands.
Moreover, if the Third Prince finally gained power and ascended to the throne, just based on the Third Prince's attitude towards the little girl as if she were his own sister, his son would become the new emperor's brother-in-law...
The more the Second Lady thought about it, the better she felt this was.
So, the Second Madam continued excitedly, "Mother, fortunately, An'er's marriage hasn't been decided yet. Although the young lady from the Su family is younger, we can marry her first and consummate the marriage a few years later."
As long as he marries her, the little girl from the Su family will become his daughter-in-law.
When the time comes, won’t you use all the good things in your hands to honor your mother-in-law?
As soon as the second lady finished speaking, before the old lady could express her opinion, the second master again proposed to marry his daughter to Xuanyuan Jin.
"Mother, in my opinion, the Emperor must have chosen the Third Prince as the Crown Prince." The Second Master tried hard to act like a fool and said, "Think about it, the Third Prince lives in Fengqi County, and the Emperor sent General Shenwu to Fengqi County to guard the gold mine. Isn't that the same as using the entire gold mine as the Third Prince's money bag..."
When the second master thought about the gold in a gold mine that he could spend at will, his heart beat faster and his tone became eager.
"Mother, as the saying goes, it's easy to add icing on the cake, but it's difficult to provide timely assistance. The Third Prince is weak now, and if we take refuge with him, he will surely be extremely grateful... We just need to marry Qing'er to the Third Prince, and when he succeeds, our Bai family will have another empress, ensuring a century of prosperity for the Bai family..."
And he himself is the emperor's father-in-law!
When the second master thought of this, his blood boiled.
After hearing what the second master said, the second wife agreed very much.
"Mother, I think it's a good idea!" The Second Madam said excitedly, "Let's marry Qing'er to the Third Prince and bring the young lady from the Su family into our family!"
In this way, his daughter would become the queen and could support him!
The good things in the hands of my daughter-in-law can be used to honor me...
By then, what will the first wife matter?
Maybe the finances of the Bai Mansion will be handed over to me!
The second wife was already imagining how she would be able to hold her head high.
The first lady was very unhappy after hearing what the second lady said.
It seems that all the good things have been taken by the second wife!
Obviously, my son is the best!
Which lady from aristocratic families in the capital doesn’t want to marry her son?
As a result, his outstanding son could only marry the daughter of a small-time prefect!
That idiot son of the Second House, on the other hand, wants to marry the young lady from the Su family, who is favored by both the Empress Dowager and the Third Prince...
If that’s the case, why not let your own son marry her?
Anyway, the reason why I let my son marry the girl from the Xia family was because of the girl from the Su family.
The eldest lady thought to herself and almost said it out loud.
Fortunately, she still remembered that the Su family and the Xia family were sworn relatives.
My family and the Xia family are already discussing marriage, so I absolutely cannot break off the engagement and go to the Su family to propose marriage.
No need to offend both families!
The more the lady thought about it, the more upset she became.
"If the Third Prince succeeds, that's all that matters, given Second Sister-in-law's plan." The eldest lady looked troubled and said, "However, I think Mother is right. This matter can't be rushed. Given the Bai family's current status, it's not worth the risk. It's better to play it safe."
"With the Empress Dowager here, our Bai family will be safe no matter what!" The Second Madam said unconvincedly. She looked at the old lady and continued, "Mother, this matter cannot be delayed. The Empress Dowager is here. Let's ask her to arrange a marriage between Qing'er and the Third Prince first, and then ask her to arrange a marriage between An'er and the young lady from the Su family as well. Wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?"
As soon as the Second Madam finished speaking, the Second Master nodded repeatedly and said anxiously, "Mother, you can't hesitate any longer! The Third Prince is already old enough to choose a concubine. If the Emperor gets ahead of him and arranges a marriage for him, it will be too late!"
The second master and the second mistress all stared at the old lady.
The old lady was moved!
"Help me go and pay my respects to the Empress Dowager!" said the old lady.
