New widow

Su Qiao let out a long sigh. What was the reason for this sigh? Little Sister Song did not dare to ask, and she could not ask.

"It's dinner time, let's go have dinner." Su Qiao only said this and walked out. Little Sister Song whispered to Su Qiao's back: "At this time, I feel that with the protection of my wife, It doesn’t matter whether you marry or not.”

Your own asylum? There was a touch of bitterness on Suqiao's lips. She could only protect a few people in the courtyard, and if she tried to protect a few more people, she would be blamed.

Su Qiao could even imagine how furious Lord Kuang would be when the news of Wan Dequan's innocence reached his ears, and she would even receive a letter of accusation from Lord Kuang.

But Su Qiao only whispered to Little Sister Song: "Then I will try my best to protect you."

Protecting Suqiao, who should be protected, when Suqiao was young, she hoped that her father would appear and protect herself countless times. Since no one is willing to protect yourself, let yourself protect others now.

That night, Su Qiao didn't fall asleep for a long time. The summer night wind carried a hint of heat, and the moon hung in the sky, so round and white. Suqiao sat by the window and looked at the moon. Like or dislike, protect or not be protected, in fact, it is not up to you to choose, nor is it up to everyone in this house to choose.

Suqiao smiled faintly, no matter what, she had come this far, so let's keep going.

Mother-in-law and sister-in-law Wu told each other their thoughts, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law inevitably cried again. Mother-in-law Wu also found the matchmaker and formally rejected the marriage.

Although the matchmaker feels that she did not do it

She became a matchmaker, but when she saw Nanny Wu taking out a silver hairpin as a thank you gift, the matchmaker suddenly smiled and said, "Sure enough, the things done in your house are different from other places. This hairpin always has one or two weights."

"This is what my wife rewarded me in the past." Nanny Wu said, pointing to Chai's feet: "Here, do you see, there is also the sign of the Capital Silver Tower?"

"Tsk, tsk, such a good thing." The matchmaker couldn't wait to put the silver hairpin on her hair, smiled at Aunt Wu and said, "Your house is different from others. Look at this hairpin. It's really the best in this city." That silver shop’s craftsmanship is much worse than this one.”

"The silver houses in this city, presumably they learned the craftsmanship from the capital?" Nanny Wu asked with a smile. The matchmaker has traveled to thousands of houses, so she naturally knows the details of these silver houses: "You say you learned the craftsmanship from the old master in the palace. Return it to the old master in the palace, who probably won't even recognize him."

"This hairpin is an imitation of the one made inside." Aunt Wu pointed at the hairpin. The matchmaker couldn't help but take it off, and allowed Nanny Wu to talk for a long time about this one being made inside.

"No wonder it's so exquisite." The matchmaker exclaimed, and Aunt Wu also smiled: "In our family, there were so many things like this."

"They say that Madam Kuang was kicked out?" the matchmaker asked with a smile. Aunt Wu patted the table and said, "Fart."

He actually said bad words, and the matchmaker shrank her neck: "This is not what Wang Shangshu said."

A sneer appeared on the lips of Aunt Wu, and the matchmaker said flatteringly: "Now that you have said it, we will know that this Madam Kuang has a distinguished status. No one will dare to bully her in the future."

Grandma Wu was just about to say who dares to bully

, but after thinking about the current situation, I could only suppress my anger and said to the matchmaker: "You are going out today, and when you meet people, you must say these words to them properly."

"Naturally," the matchmaker promised again and again before taking the silver hairpin and saying goodbye.

The matchmaker left, and Nanny Wu couldn't help but sigh. Little Sister-in-law Wu had already walked behind Nanny Wu: "Mother-in-law, you are walking outside, I think you have heard a lot of these rumors."

"Who in the world is not being talked about?" Mother Wu only replied. Sister-in-law Wu frowned slightly. Mother Wu knew that her daughter-in-law had different ideas about this matter, but Mother Wu He just smiled and said, "You are still young and haven't gone through much."

"Although I am young, I also know that words can kill." Sister-in-law Wu's words made Grandma Wu smile: "Yes, words can kill, but it depends on what kind of words and what kind of person."

If it were a person like the mason, others would instigate him and let him die. But in a family like the British Government, those words from outside cannot enter. The words that can kill people are also the words at home.

"Okay, let's go cook. This matter is over. From now on, let's live a good life." Aunt Wu came back to her senses and said to Sister-in-law Wu with a smile. Sister-in-law Wu responded softly and went to cook by herself. .

Aunt Wu looked at the sun on the horizon, and she thought that the rest of her life would be like this, calm and indifferent. As for the rumors, just don't care.

"The rumors outside are all very weird." Zhang Qing walked into Su Du's study, reached for the tea on the side, drank the tea in one breath, and muttered.

"What rumors?" Su Du looked up at Zhang Qing.

The smile did not change: "What else, just talking about Mrs. Kuang, how she was kicked out, and..."

"Old Minister, why bother?" Su Du said this before Zhang Qing could finish. Zhang Qing also nodded: "That's right, why bother."

Manager Wang is dead, Aunt Du is now honest, and the one who can spread rumors is of course Wang Shangshu.

"After so many years of showing off on this ground, the old minister has forgotten those days when he was walking on thin ice." Su Du said lightly, Wang Shangshu can get a high position, and he has been in the officialdom for many years, but accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger. Su Du also heard about the fights between ministers.

Hearing what Su Du said, Zhang Qing laughed again: "Yes, like me, I don't think about these things. I just want to be an ordinary official. It's best if I can be promoted. If I can't be promoted, I'll wait for five years." Ten, submit a letter to become an official."

"You can do this, but I can't." Su Du sometimes envied Zhang Qing and his unrestrained attitude. Su Du was born in the Nanyang Marquis Mansion and grew up surrounded by brocade. What he was taught since childhood was to strive for success and study for success so that the Nanyang Marquis Mansion could reach a higher level.

Being a Jinshi at a young age put a heavier burden on Su Du's shoulders. After Su Du was a Jinshi, Mrs. Nanyang Hou was very happy that Su Du's marriage was not going well. In this way, Su Du could marry a wealthy official who would be helpful to his career, instead of having to choose among noble families as before.

"You look much more mature when you say this." Zhang Qing watched Su Du's expression change and couldn't help but patted his shoulder. Su Du smiled: "Otherwise, this is my life.
