Chapter 920: Caught by you?
After hearing Tang Bao's words, Madam Xia's happy expression disappeared. She sighed and said, "The Bai family's intention is to set a date as soon as possible. After the palace examination, the Bai family's son-in-law will have achieved fame and honor. It will be a good story to get married at that time."
To be honest, how could Mrs. Xia be willing to marry her daughter off in such a hurry?
In particular, the daughter and the son are straightforward and have no scheming.
Mrs. Xia was afraid that her daughter would be laughed at for being rude and unstable in the Bai family.
However, since the two families have already become married, they cannot let things get out of hand.
Otherwise, it will be your daughter who suffers.
It has to be said that marrying off a daughter is much more troublesome than marrying off a son.
Tang Bao understood immediately after hearing what Mrs. Xia said.
The Bai family wanted to live up to the saying - the wedding night is when one's name is on the list of successful candidates.
However, shouldn’t this be the good story of his fifth brother and sister Ning?
Xia Siya snorted twice and said, "The Bai family is so arrogant. Do they really know that Bai Shuzhi will definitely pass the high school entrance exam?"
When Xia Siya said this, she recalled the scene during the autumn examination.
He continued, "Back then, the Bai sisters kept saying that Bai Shuzhi would definitely be the top scorer in the exam, but in the end, didn't Fifth Brother still take the top spot?"
After saying that, he muttered softly again.
"Maybe I'll fail this time."
As soon as Xia Siya finished speaking, Mrs. Xia wished she could shut her daughter up.
Look at this, how does this look like someone getting married?
No! How could someone curse their fiancé like that?
"If you can't speak, then don't say anything!" Madam Xia said with a headache, "Isn't it an honor for you that your son-in-law passed the high school entrance exam? You know, a wife's status depends on her husband!"
After hearing what Madam Xia said, Xia Siya said unconvincedly, "Mother, you haven't seen how cocky he was back then. He was just a scholar back then! If he really succeeded in the palace exam and made it into the top class, he wouldn't be so proud. I just can't stand his arrogant attitude, as if he were the most capable person in the world!"
"What's wrong with being arrogant when young?" Madam Xia didn't complain much. She said, "My son-in-law is well-educated, so even if he's a little arrogant, it's understandable."
"Fifth brother is more knowledgeable, but he is not as arrogant as him!" Xia Siya said.
Madam Xia: “…”
This girl is hopeless. She contradicts me whenever I say something.
However, she couldn't find any words to refute her daughter's words.
The fifth son of the Su family is not only well-educated, but also humble, elegant and polite. He is truly a gentleman.
Fortunately, the carriage arrived at the gate of Shou'an Hall at this time.
Old Man Su and Old Lady Su were welcoming the Xia mother and daughter at the door.
After everyone got off the bus, they naturally greeted each other.
Old Man Su said hello and went to the front yard.
Old Lady Su greeted Madam Xia and her daughter and went into Shou'an Hall to talk.
"I've finally got you here," Madam Xia said happily, "If I hadn't been afraid you'd be reluctant to leave, I would have brought Fuya with me when I first came to Beijing..."
Old Mrs. Su was naturally reluctant to let her go. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "I know you love her, but if she's not at home, I'm afraid our whole family won't be able to eat the New Year's Eve dinner."
When Mrs. Xia heard what Old Lady Su said, she couldn't help but think of the scene when Tang Bao accompanied Old Lady Su to the provincial capital to take the exam, and the whole Su family rushed over with tears in their eyes.
"That's true." Mrs. Xia sighed.
If she had such a caring and sensible daughter, she would definitely not want to leave her.
I’m afraid the Su couple came to Beijing this time because of Fu Ya.
Mrs. Xia and Old Madam Su were talking, but Xia Siya couldn't sit still and kept winking at Tang Bao.
It means: Let’s go out and play.
Tang Bao looked at Old Lady Su and Madam Xia, and said with a smile, "Mother, godmother, you two can talk. I'll take Sister Siya to my yard to sit for a while."
Mrs. Su smiled and said, "Go ahead, you ladies, just go and talk privately."
Of course she saw it, and Xia Siya winked at Tang Bao.
Mrs. Xia naturally knew that it was her daughter's intention.
He could only helplessly remind her: "If you go out to play, be sure to dress well and don't catch a cold."
"Don't worry, mother. Sister Fuya is the apprentice of a miracle doctor." Xia Siya said with a smile, "I, your daughter, also have some medical knowledge. Even if she catches a cold, there's nothing to worry about. It's just a pill!"
Madam Xia: “…”
How could she feel at ease marrying a daughter like this into the Bai family?
Mrs. Xia breathed a sigh of regret and married into the Bai family.
My daughter's temper is simply impossible to change, so how can she adapt to a family like the Bai family who are so particular about rules?
Old Madam Su smiled and said, "Even so, we can't be careless. If we provoke a cold, we will be the ones who suffer."
After hearing what Old Lady Su said, Xia Siya quickly said, "Aunt Su is right. I just said that. Don't worry, I will take good care of Sister Fuya."
Upon hearing this, Old Mrs. Su nodded with satisfaction.
"Take good care of yourself too. None of you sisters should get cold."
"Yes, Siya will follow my aunt's instructions." Xia Siya giggled and bowed to Old Lady Su.
Seeing this, Mrs. Xia shook her head and smiled.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, if the young master of the Su family had not joined the army, and I had married my daughter into the Su family, why would I be so worried now?
After Tang Bao and Xia Siya left Shou'an Hall, they did not rush to Tang Bao's yard, but strolled around slowly.
The two people, one wearing a goose yellow cloak and the other wearing a lilac cloak with a hood, walked in a world of white, like two flowers blooming in the wind.
"Sister Fuya, are my nephews all right?" Xia Siya asked excitedly, "Did you miss me?"
"Everything is fine. I miss you too." Tang Bao said with a smile, "Especially Da Pan. He found me before I came here and told me that if you were upset in the capital, you must write to him and tell him. He will come to help you vent your anger."
"As expected, my eldest nephew is the best." Xia Siya said with emotion: "It's worth the friendship we've built since we were little by climbing trees together."
Tang Bao glanced at Xia Siya, her expression indescribable.
Then, he continued, "Sister Siya, have you seen Bai Shuqing, the fifth daughter of the Bai family, these days?"
"I've seen her a few times." Xia Siya smiled. "Come to think of it, I think she's much more pleasing to the eye now. Although she's still so arrogant, she's actually quite nice to me."
Tang Bao understood that she had made the right decision to make friends with Bai Shuqing.
I just don't know how the undercover work is going?
"What about your cousin? Have you seen her?" Tang Bao asked again.
When Xia Siya heard Tang Bao mention Zou Shuqin, she immediately curled her lips and said, "How could I not have seen her? I have never seen such a shameless person!"
Tang Bao immediately asked, "What happened? Did she go to see the Third Young Master of the Bai Family again? Did you catch her?"
Xia Siya: “…”
He gave Tang Bao a strange look.
Why does she feel that Sister Fuya seems very happy?
