I have a role in the heavens

Sheng Hong could see the inner thoughts of his happy wife at a glance, shook his head a little, and said again.

"Don't always be obsessed with petty profits. Zhan'er is only seventeen now, and he will only be eighteen next year. If he is named on the gold list, do you know what this means?"

Wang Ruofu came from a well-known family, and his father and brother also came from the imperial examination. Naturally, he knew how difficult the imperial examination was. When he heard this, he froze on the spot and looked at Sheng Hong with wide eyes, asking for confirmation.

"He entered the officialdom before he was crowned a weakling. In the future, he can be at least a third-grade official. If we don't repair the relationship with such a person while the iron is hot, we have to wait for him to become prosperous in the future, and then we can lick his face and flatter him?!"

Wang Ruofu slapped herself in the face. Although it was not too loud, it could be seen that Wang Ruofu felt a little regretful in her heart. She never thought that this poor relative she looked down on would actually turn around. It was really beyond her. As expected, she originally complained about Sheng Hong for helping Li Zhan study, but now it seems that she is too short-sighted and lacks foresight.

"The official is right. We must treat Zhan'er well from now on. After all, he is our relative. How can we get along with each other!"

Seeing that Wang Ruofu had understood the stakes, Sheng Hong nodded and expressed satisfaction. After all, he was a teachable boy and not stupid.

Sheng Hong suddenly remembered the good idea he had just thought of, and asked Wang Ruofu for advice with some uncertainty.

"I remember that Shulan from Youyang's hometown has reached the age of marriage. What do you think about introducing her to Zhan'er as his wife? In this way, the Sheng family and Zhan'er will become more intimate and inseparable. Got it!"

Wang Ruofu thought about it for a while but also expressed his approval and supported it.

"This is a good idea. I remember my eldest aunt wrote a letter asking us to help look out for good people. Now that Zhan'er has achieved fame, his hometown will definitely not object, but?"

When Wang Ruofu said this, he was a little hesitant, frowned in embarrassment, and said uncertainly.

"Zhan'er lives in Sheng Mansion, so the mother will naturally make the decision on marriage. If you want this marriage to happen, I think you still need your mother's nod!"

Sheng Hong nodded in understanding, which was consistent with his idea, so Li Zhan's marriage still needed Mrs. Sheng's nod. After all, these days, parents' orders and matchmakers' words are all important. As for the so-called elopement between a man and a woman, that is an elopement. It will be reviled by others and will not be able to hold it up for the rest of its life.

Li Zhan's parents have passed away, and the only relative who can really make the decision is Mrs. Sheng. As for Li Zhan's own opinion, it is not important. He will definitely not go against the words of his elders.

Sheng Hong changed his clothes, thought about it and said to Sheng Hong: "I will go to Shou'an Hall to congratulate you, and test my mother's intention by the way. You can go with me. After all, you are the head of the Sheng Mansion. You must show up when the time comes!"

Wang Ruofu responded, feeling very happy in his heart. This is the status of the principal wife. Even if that little bitch Lin Sushuang is favored again, she can only take part in such important matters. She has no qualifications at all, she is just a concubine. That's all, if the officials hadn't protected that little bitch, she would have sold Lin Sushuang to Goulan Washer to see if she still dared to seduce a man.

Sheng Hong and his wife came to Shou'an Hall together. After greeting Mrs. Sheng who was sitting in the main hall, they chatted for a while and then took advantage of Mrs. Sheng's excitement to mention Li Zhan's marriage.

Sheng Hong quietly raised his eyes to measure Mrs. Sheng's reaction and asked tentatively.

"Mom, Zhan'er is seventeen years old, and now she has married Xie Yuan. Isn't it time to kiss her?"

Old Mrs. Sheng glanced at Sheng Hong and his wife, who were staring at her nervously, and her heart sank. She understood that the two of them had an idea of ​​Li Zhan's marriage. She was about to get angry, but she thought that Li Zhan was really not old enough. He was young. The children of ordinary families were already fathers. It was time to get married. You suppressed his anger forcibly and wanted to hear what Sheng Hong and the two were thinking. He frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice.

"Zhan'er is getting older and it's time to start a family. What do you think?"

When Sheng Hong saw the anger on the old lady's face at first, his heart skipped a beat, fearing that this matter was going to be over. Unexpectedly, things took a turn for the worse, and his mother changed her mind. She immediately knew that Old Madam Sheng had also considered this matter, so she hurriedly said.

"Youyang wrote a letter from his hometown, asking me to help Shulan's child pay more attention to some suitable and good families. I think Zhan'er is good. Why not add happiness and kiss to make Zhan'er and Shulan get married? how?"

Sheng Hong said cautiously, while carefully observing Mrs. Sheng's face, and seeing that she was not unhappy at all, he boldly asked.

Wang Ruofu was also helping the officials speak, nodding in agreement. Seeing that Mrs. Sheng had no intention of objecting, he continued to talk peacefully.

"If Zhan'er and Shulan become husband and wife, then he will be the son-in-law of the Sheng family and your grandson-in-law, wouldn't he be even closer? Besides, Shulan's family has a lot of wealth, so the dowry must be generous, and Zhan'er is alone. One person has no property, so isn’t this the best of both worlds?”

Wang Ruofu was talking happily, dancing and twirling the handkerchief in his hand. He didn't notice at all that as she finished speaking, Old Mrs. Sheng's face became gloomy. She even stood up and looked at her angrily. I thought that Mrs. Sheng was excited, so she kept confirming to Mrs. Sheng.

"Mother, do you think this is true?"

Unlike his wife, Sheng Hong grew up looking at people's looks. Knowing that his wife's words had angered his mother, he quickly stood up, grabbed Wang Ruofu's sleeve, shook it vigorously, and said with a serious face.

"Shut up. If you can't speak, don't speak. No one will treat you as a mute!"

Wang Ruofu didn't know why, and looked at his serious husband in confusion. Didn't he mention this? What happened? He turned to look at his mother-in-law, and then he realized that Mrs. Sheng had an angry look on her face. She understood. I got into trouble and said the wrong thing. I immediately lowered my head, didn't dare to say anything, and apologized directly.

"Mom, it's my daughter-in-law who can't speak. She's too talkative. Please calm down, mother!"

Mrs. Sheng snorted coldly and sat down on the chair angrily. She stared angrily at the couple below. Seeing that Wang Ruofu still had a trace of dissatisfaction on his face, she sighed helplessly. Then he said.

"I know what you are thinking. Now that I have seen Zhan'er's success, I feel that his career is far-reaching and limitless, so I am anxious to tie him to the Sheng family's carriage to help us in the same boat, so that we can help Brother Bo and Brother Feng in the future. We have to look after each other!”

Sheng Hong and Wang Ruofu nodded in agreement, indicating that what Mrs. Sheng said was absolutely correct.

"Mother's guess is good. This is what her son thinks, but it's not wrong. I didn't harm Zhan'er, I just wanted to kiss him more!"
