Chapter 9 The Su Family
Su Jun’s wife is Lin Murou, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo. Su Jun is twenty-two years old this year, two years older than Lin Murou.
The couple had twins, a boy and a girl, one year after their marriage. They are four-year-old sister Su Yao and brother Su Yixuan.
Su Yu is twenty years old this year. He went to the border two years after getting married and has not been back for almost three years.
He married Gu Hanyue, the daughter of the Minister of Works, who is twenty years old this year and has a two-and-a-half-year-old son, Su Yizhou.
During the day today, Gu Hanyue took her son back to her mother's home and returned shortly after the imperial edict was read.
Lin Murou went to the farms around the capital to check the harvest and returned home in the afternoon.
Anyway, the two brothers Su Jun and Su Yu are not going to get off duty so soon, and Su Yu has just returned to Beijing and is very busy.
But they didn't expect that just half a day after leaving the mansion, their sister-in-law would become the future Princess of Yan!
Su Zhenzhen asked Bai Zhi to arrange Luo Tang'er in the guest house and specially arranged a courtyard of neither too big nor too small for her.
She had no intention of making Luo Tang'er her best friend. The only reason she had coveted her man was that it was impossible.
Just treat him as a subordinate, it's impossible to be too close.
Luo Tang'er followed Bai Zhi tactfully, looking at the magnificent and tasteful five-courtyard house along the way.
She was shocked. This was much more upscale than the taste of the nouveau riche three-story house in her house.
In such a big mansion, the guest house allocated to her is several levels more expensive than her stepfather's main house.
Baizhi did not follow into the teahouse. She was waiting outside the carriage.
She arranged four second-class maids for Luo Tang'er, as well as several servants and cleaning women.
"Miss Luo, these are the servants who serve you. Please wait for the lady's instructions for the specific arrangements tomorrow. You should have a good rest for the next two days."
Luo Tang'er also experienced the enjoyment of the landlord class, which was indeed very luxurious.
She didn't enjoy anything in the Luo family during the few days she traveled through time. How could a bastard daughter of an unpopular merchant family be treated well?
Walking into the main courtyard dining room, Su Zhenzhen saw Yuxue's adorable nephew Su Yizhou. She couldn't help but hug him and asked, "Brother Zhou, do you miss your aunt?"
The plump white Su Yizhou grinned with his small teeth showing, "I thought about it, auntie, give me a kiss ^3^"
He put his arms around his beautiful aunt's neck and kissed her cheek with his pouting lips.
Su Zhenzhen was so happy holding the little glutinous rice dumpling that she gave Su Yizhou a big kiss.
Seeing that their aunt's younger brother was unwilling, the twin brother and sister got off their grandmother and mother one after another.
"Aunt! Aunt! And Brother Xuan and Sister Yao!"
Ye Mingyan couldn't stop smiling as she watched her daughter playing with her grandchildren.
"Look at you, you're about to get married, why are you still so childish?"
Su Zhenzhen deliberately showed off, "Dad, look at Mom, isn't my daughter no longer your daughter after she gets married~"
Su Qiyang stroked his beautiful beard, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking handsome and elegant.
"I won't get involved with you and your daughter. Zhenzhen will always be the apple of Daddy's eye."
Lin Murou and Su Jun were talking, and Gu Hanyue also pulled Su Yu aside to talk in private.
Looking at the sister-in-law who was spoiled like a child, I couldn't help but smile and look envious. How could their family be so warm?
The skills of backyard intrigue and house fighting have been learned since they could read...
Qiu Shui Pavilion.
Su Yiyi silently thought of the present in her previous life.
Second brother Su Yu returned triumphantly, and everyone in the Su family gathered together for a family dinner.
They completely forgot about her, their half-sister...
All he could think about was Su Zhenzhen, the eldest daughter of the Su family...
She really hated her maid mother. Why did she climb into bed and give birth to her?
Without any ability or means, you are not even qualified to be a concubine.
She, Su Yiyi, must climb up and become the most noble woman in the Qin Dynasty!
Let the Su family kowtow to her!
Although her stepmother Ye Mingyan did not abuse her, she gave her the share she was entitled to and managed the household strictly, not allowing the servants to deduct her share.
But human greed is insatiable. Every time she heard that Su Zhenzhen had received a gift worth a thousand taels and how favored she was, her heart felt as if it was being pricked by needles.
Why are they treated so differently even though they are all daddy’s daughters?
She also tried hard to get her father to pay attention to her.
I sent him snacks, tea, embroidered sachets, and clothes, but he never accepted them.
He said lightly that he should stay here and cultivate his sentiments with the female teacher, and not to come to the front yard if he had nothing to do, as he was very busy.
As a result, she hid outside the yard and saw Su Zhenzhen, who was wearing Shu brocade, entering her father's study without notifying him.
How could she not hate him?
Su Qiyang really disliked this daughter who was designed to be here. He always felt guilty about recognizing the wrong person.
He was half drunk at the time and lost consciousness, thinking it was his wife...
He broke the oath he made to his wife. Even though they have lived in harmony for more than ten years, he knew that broken mirrors cannot be mended.
The lady did have a scar in her heart. Although she didn't say it, her actions were no longer as loving as they had been in the first few years of marriage.
While the Su family was having dinner, the butler Qi Bo announced that Gu Heng, the general manager of Prince Yan's Mansion, had arrived.
Su Zhenzhen pretended to be nonchalant and took a bite of the crispy duck nuggets. "Why are you looking at me? Let him in."
Su Jun slowly picked up a piece of forget-me-not for her with chopsticks.
Su Zhenzhen blushed with shame, and she muttered, "Daddy, Mommy, my brother is making fun of me!"
Zhou Ge'er asked doubtfully: "Dad, what is Auntie saying? I don't understand~"
Su Yu suppressed a smile and said, "Forget-me-not is also called daylily. Uncle Zhou Ge'er wants your aunt to eat the daylily first, so that she won't have to wait for news from your future uncle until the daylily gets cold!"
Su Zhenzhen pouted so much that she could hang an oil bottle on her mouth.
Everyone else at the table was laughing so hard they were holding their stomachs. Su Zhenzhen said magnanimously, "Forget it, forget it. Just think of it as me making colorful clothes to entertain my parents!"
Gu Heng led two rows of servants to pay their respects to Su Zhenzhen. The servants were all holding lacquerware boxes inlaid with gold and gems, and the exquisitely shaped lacquerware figures were lifelike.
The leading servant was holding a heavy lacquer jewelry box in his hand, which was filled with various kinds of top-quality jade stones, pearls, agates and jadeite.
The Su family's eldest daughter-in-law Lin Murou and second daughter-in-law Gu Xiaoyue were both shocked by the wealth of His Royal Highness Prince Yan.
The annual salary of the prince of the current dynasty is only 20,000 taels.
How rich is His Royal Highness Prince Yan?
Next to it is a complete set of precious filigree headpieces inlaid with gemstones, a white magnolia headpiece made of mutton-fat white jade, and velvet flowers made of floating luster brocade...
Not to mention Yunjin, Shujin and other colorful fabrics...
This is the prince's salary for several years...
Is His Royal Highness the Prince of Yan taking it a little too seriously?
Ye Mingyan was of course happy that His Royal Highness Prince Yan cared about her. Where a man’s money is, there is his love.
Gu Cheng also carefully took out a black jade tiger pendant made of warm jade from his arms and handed it to Su Zhenzhen under the ambiguous and teasing eyes of the Su family.
"This is the jade pendant His Highness has worn since childhood. He said it was a token of love."
"These gifts are from His Highness to you. There are still many in the storehouse. You can wear them yourself when the time comes."
Before she could speak, Gu Heng continued, "This is the golden blood bird's nest that His Highness prepared for you. Please try it."
He then asked another servant to bring out a bowl of golden blood swallow's nest with excellent color from a lacquered wood food box inlaid with gems.
Su Zhenzhen: This, this, this Chenchen, is he too obsessed...
Or was it that the jade pendant she gave me was too powerful?
