Chapter 166 Song Rouxi is making trouble again
Zhang Ziming couldn't understand what his mother said. He just thought that everything about the Zhang family was good and his parents were easy to get along with.
Others were eager to marry into the Zhang family, but when he thought of Song Ci's face, he became hesitant and unwilling to give up.
At dinner that night, Qiao Xianglan mentioned this matter vaguely. Song Lao San was stunned. "I'm afraid this is Madam Bai's idea. Brother Zhang didn't mention it to me."
Qiao Xianglan glared at him and said, "Whether it's mentioned or not, if you ever mention marriage again, reject it."
"Okay, okay, whatever you say, ma'am." Seeing that his wife was angry, Song Lao San put some food into her bowl in a flattering manner.
Seeing their parents like this, Song Lan and Song Ci looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.
...
The eldest wife of the Song family.
Boss Song was overjoyed. Yesterday, the head of the Ministry of Rites came in person to announce the news. He has now been promoted to the Ministry of Rites.
His promotion was put on hold before, and he was looked down upon by his colleagues because of the sunset incident. Thinking of the surprised and envious looks of those people yesterday, Boss Song felt extremely happy.
"My son, you have finally overcome all the hardships and finally enjoyed happiness." Old Mrs. Song said as she was about to wipe away her tears.
"Grandma, today is a good day, please stop crying." Song Rouxi persuaded.
“What you said is that today is a good day for your father and a good day for our Song family.”
Song Lao Er said with an envious tone: "Big brother has also risen to a high position." As he spoke, he glanced at Song Rouxi. Everyone knew that the mastermind behind this was the prince. In order to save face for Song Rouxi, the prince promoted Song Lao Da's official position.
Thinking of his daughter Song Ying, Song Lao Er couldn't help but get angry. It's really true that comparing yourself with others will only make you angry.
"What are you talking about, second brother? No matter who of us becomes successful, we must help each other." Boss Song said politely, and the atmosphere was very good for a while. No one mentioned the third family, as if they were not considered members of the Song family at all.
Song Rouxi smiled and said, "The prince said that we can go and bring mother back in a few days."
Old Mrs. Song fell silent for a moment, and neither did Old Master Song. Song Rouxi was immediately displeased, "Grandmother and Father, don't you want Mom to come back? What happened back then was originally a misunderstanding. It was Song Ci who framed my mother. Mom suffered so much in the temple, she should have come back long ago. Besides, if the prince and I... had a mother in the temple, how embarrassing it would be if the news got out."
After thinking about it, Boss Song agreed, but he was still a little unwilling. Li Yao had been away for so long, and he had been promoted again and again. Many people knew that his wife had gone to the temple. Someone tried to matchmake for him in a roundabout way, and he was tempted.
If Li Yao came back, he would have to give up these thoughts.
Song Rouxi: "Dad, don't you want Mom to come back?"
“Of course not!”
Even though he objected, Song Rouxi still saw the impatience that flashed across his face and forced herself to suppress the discomfort in her heart.
"Then my sister and I will go pick up mother in a few days."
The person who was speaking was Song Han, and he was also thinking about his mother.
"Speaking of which, after this year, the girl from the third room will be old enough to get married." Old Mrs. Song suddenly interrupted and brought up this matter.
The speaker may not mean it, but the listener may take it seriously. Song Rouxi thought for a moment and said, "Grandmother is at home, so naturally she has the final say on this marriage."
"Will the Third Brother agree?" Old Lady Song didn't care. Thinking of Song Ci's strange energy, she felt unhappy. "Song Ci is also a disobedient and unfilial person. The whole family is disobedient."
"Grandma." Song Rouxi climbed onto Old Lady Song's arm and said coquettishly, "It's said that having an elder in the family is like having a treasure. If you are willing to find her a husband, you will be honored by their third branch."
After hearing this, Boss Song and Song Han both looked at her, thinking that she must have some new ideas.
"Then tell me, to whom should you marry your third sister?"
Song Rouxi thought about it and suddenly smiled: "There is a good choice for granddaughter. A good match for the third sister."
"who."
Song Rouxi looked at the eldest brother Song and said, "Dad, the Minister of Rites has a little son. So, if we consider it, we are still marrying up."
"Are you talking about that idiot..." Boss Song coughed hastily, "Third Young Master?"
"Yes." Song Rouxi smiled and said, "Although the Third Young Master is young and has no rules for doing things, he is the youngest child and has been spoiled by his parents since he was a child. He has two older brothers. If my third sister marries him, she will be destined to a life of happiness. Besides, didn't Dad say that the Minister of Rites will be the next Minister of Rites? Isn't it a great blessing for our two families to marry each other?"
These words shook Boss Song's heart. If Song Ci could be married, it would be a good thing if she could honestly take care of her husband and children.
I can also take this opportunity to become relatives with the family of the future Minister of Rites. Wouldn't that make me feel more comfortable in the Ministry of Rites in the future?
"But will the third room agree?"
Song Rouxi: "Dad, you need to inform the Minister of Rites and his wife about this matter. As long as they agree, is there any room for the Third House to refuse?"
Song Yong, who was dozing off and distracted just now, woke up suddenly and looked at Song Rouxi coldly, as if he wanted to eat her.
The rest of the Song family were naturally willing to do so.
The third son of the Minister of Rites is a fool, with an IQ of only two or three years old, and he likes to beat people. But he has a good family background.
In their eyes, it is more than enough to match Song Dynasty porcelain.
After leaving the house, Song Rouxi's face was still full of pride.
Thinking that Song Ci was about to marry the foolish son of the Minister of Rites, she was happy. Ling'er saw her thoughts and said flatteringly, "Miss, you are so kind to find her a man with such a good family background. How can they be a good match for her?"
"So what if he has a good family background? Which stupid son of his would beat people up? I heard that he beat several maids to death. If Song Ci goes, how long can he hold on?"
The two were walking back talking and laughing when a person suddenly rushed out from the shadows on the side, scaring them both.
"Second brother, why are you here?"
"Why am I here?" Song Yong's expression was sinister, his eyes dark and unclear. "You promised to help me, but now you want to send Song Ci to someone else's house. What are you thinking?"
"So, second brother is here for this." She continued with a smile, "Second brother, don't you think about it? How could the third room possibly give Song Ci to you? But the son of the Minister of Rites is a fool. Even if Song Ci marries him, second brother still has a chance."
"You pretend to be gentle and kind outside, but you hide your shameful thoughts behind the scenes."
Song Rouxi stopped pretending and spread her hands, saying, "Second brother is not very kind to have dirty thoughts towards his own cousin. Second brother should not care about these things. A fool who knows nothing, how can he bring happiness to third sister? When the time comes, second brother can coax her and win over Song Ci easily."
