Chapter 874: I am from the Su family in Beijing
"Mom, let's not talk about those skins for now. Among these things Sister Ning sent, there must be a share for our whole family."
Tang Bao said with a smile, and directly took out the pairs of gold bracelets.
"These must be for my sisters-in-law, don't you think?"
Old Madam Su thought about the matter between Princess Huaning and her fifth son, and naturally understood that Princess Huaning valued the Su family, which was why she did this.
"Since it was given to you by the princess, if you have the chance to meet the princess in the future, you must thank her sincerely." Old Mrs. Su said to her daughters-in-law.
I didn't have the courage to say that I should get along well with my sisters-in-law.
After all, Old Madam Su had no idea about the matter between Princess Huaning and Su Laowu.
So what if your son is outstanding?
She is a royal family.
"Mom, don't worry, we will definitely see the princess again. She will definitely call us sister-in-law in the future." Qian Yuemei took a pair of gold bracelets with a beaming face and put them directly on her hands.
It’s great to have a princess sister-in-law!
A pair of gold bracelets can be seen through the gaps between the fingers.
Old Mrs. Su glared at Qian Yuemei.
"Second brother's family, stop talking nonsense outside!" Old Madam Su scolded: "The princess is of noble status, and we are only giving you some face for Tang Bao's sake. If you can't remember this, don't go out in the future!"
Lest that mouth bring disaster and trouble!
"Second sister-in-law, mother is right. There are some things that cannot be said casually." Sister Su said quickly: "If it gets out, it might bring trouble to the princess's reputation."
Mrs. Su said this while winking at Qian Yuemei.
Qian Yuemei: "...Um, Mom, don't worry, I'm not stupid, I won't say anything outside."
Old Mrs. Su nodded.
As expected, two pieces of letter paper were taken out from the letter from Princess Huaning of Tang Baozong.
One of the letters was addressed to "Sister Fuya".
There was nothing written on the other letter.
Tang Bao thought, I will give it to my fifth brother in the evening.
In addition to some daily instructions, Xuanyuan Jin's letter also mentioned the Princess Mansion that was given to her. It was very close to the Imperial Examination Hall, and several famous scholars lived nearby...
Tang Bao became happier the more she looked at it.
After all, this is a school district house.
So, after watching it once, Tang Bao couldn't help but watch it a second time.
"...You are not allowed to stay up late making clothes, you are not allowed to run around, and you must have someone accompany you when you go out...You must practice calligraphy every day. You don't have to copy the characters from the copybook, just write down what you did each day...To encourage you not to be lazy, you must submit your practiced characters to me for inspection every day..."
Tang Baoshou looked at it and couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.
The little brother is becoming more and more awkward. Wouldn't it be better to just ask him to write a letter every day?
Why take such a long detour?
However, writing a letter every day is too time-consuming and costly.
You know, it is very expensive to have the post station deliver letters.
Tang Bao was secretly complaining but feeling happy at the same time.
The little brother is so nagging at such a young age. Won’t he become a nagging king when he gets old?
Oh my, thinking of the little brother with white beard, like a chatterbox, constantly mumbling, is quite interesting...
Tang Bao naturally knew that Xuanyuan Jin did this because he cared about her.
So, when she replied, she was particularly well-behaved and said a lot of words to show her concern for Xuanyuan Jin.
To the extent that Xuanyuan Jin had to read Tang Bao's letter every night before he could fall asleep.
The days flow like water, gentle and peaceful.
Until a carriage from the capital arrived at the gate of the Su family.
"Excuse me, is this Su Wuhu's home?" A middle-aged man in a green brocade robe got off the carriage and stood at the gate and asked loudly.
Old Man Su and Old Lady Su went to the farm, leaving only Tang Bao and a few sisters-in-law at home.
Tang Bao heard the shouting in the house, put down the embroidery in her hands and walked out.
"Excuse me, who are you?" Tang Bao asked.
The middle-aged man seemed to have not expected that the girl who came out was such a beautiful and delicate girl, and he was stunned.
Then, with a smile on his face, he said, "Oh, I'm from the capital. My surname is Su, and I'm from the Su family, a century-old family in the capital. Is this the Su Wuhu family?"
"Oh, what do you want to talk to my fifth brother about?" Tang Bao blinked and said, "Although our family also has the surname Su, we have no relationship with the Su family in Beijing. My fifth brother doesn't know anyone from the Su family in Beijing. Did you find the wrong person?"
"Haha... little girl, I didn't know you before, but I know you now." The middle-aged man asked with a smile, "Is Su Wuhu here?"
As soon as this person finished speaking, Boss Su happened to come over from the academy.
"Brother, what do you want to talk to Su Wuhu about?" asked Boss Su.
The middle-aged man looked at Boss Du Su and his expression was slightly stunned.
Why does this person look familiar?
"You belong to Su Wuhu..."
"I'm his elder brother." said Boss Su.
"Oh, that's right..." The middle-aged man paused and glanced at the yard. "How about we go inside and talk about it in detail?"
Boss Su naturally wouldn't say not to let people in.
After all, even if a passerby was tired and wanted to go in to rest and ask for a bowl of water, he would agree.
"I'm sorry for being rude. Please come in." Boss Su said honestly.
Then, he said to Tang Bao, "Sister, ask your sister-in-law to boil some water and make a pot of tea."
Tang Bao glanced at the man and nodded.
The man followed Boss Su into the yard and glanced around casually.
His eyes fell on the colored glaze inlaid on the window.
The expression that originally seemed enthusiastic but actually had a hint of arrogance could not help but change.
There was a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
Even in the Su family, only the old man's house and the head of the family's study were inlaid with colored glaze.
Now, he actually saw Liuli in such a remote place!
The man's mood was a little complicated.
Boss Su brought the man into the main room and politely asked him to sit down.
"Have you heard of the Su family, a century-old family in the capital?" the man asked.
You know what, I've actually heard of it.
When the people from the Duke of Yingguo’s Mansion came to propose marriage, they arrogantly mocked the Su family, saying that they were not the Su family, a century-old family in the capital.
However, Boss Su simply shook his head.
“Never heard of it!”
The middle-aged man did not feel offended. After all, it was normal for people from such a small mountain village to have never heard of the noble families in the capital, even if they did not know why the windows were inlaid with colored glaze.
"Our Su family in the capital has been passing down poetry and literature for hundreds of years." The middle-aged man mentioned the glory of his ancestors and began to talk at length, "Back then, our Su family had three successful Jinshi scholars, enjoying immense glory and fame throughout the world..."
Boss Su listened silently without interrupting the man until Mrs. Su brought tea over, then he invited the man to drink tea.
The man was a little surprised that he didn't show any admiration towards Boss Su.
