Mind Reading: Koi Cub brings script to save the whole family
Chapter 229 Xu Ning's Marriage
The surprise was not only because today's soup was not poisonous, but also because the soups for more than four months were just ordinary tonic soups.
Although Xu Tianru doesn't drink it every time, he has become very familiar with the taste of this soup over the past few months.
If Madam Yu really held a grudge in her heart, even poisoning her once would be enough to kill me.
Thinking of this, Xu Tianru couldn't help feeling a little strange.
In this huge Prime Minister's Mansion, such a gentle atmosphere is rarely seen.
Thinking of this, Xu Tianru couldn't help but add one more sentence: "No matter how senior or junior we are, we are still one family. We need to work together in the future."
"You should also restrain yourself. If you don't get married, there are other sisters in the mansion. Ning'er is also at the right age to get married. Don't affect her."
After saying that, he didn't care about Xu Liya's reaction and drank the soup in the bowl.
When the noise from the study reached Xinyuan, Madam Yu was sitting in front of the window in a daze.
"Where is the lady?"
Fang Zhi said, "I'm copying Buddhist scriptures in my room. This is the second batch this month. They said they want to send them to the palace to pray for the Queen."
Madam Yu nodded: "As sisters in the same family, this is what Ning'er should do."
After saying that, she stood up and walked out: "I'll go over and take a look."
In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Xu Tianru hardly cares about the affairs of the rear house.
When the Prime Minister’s wife was around, she was in charge.
After the Prime Minister's wife passed away, Madam Yu took over the management for several years.
When one of the two beauties of the Xu family entered the palace to become the queen, the power to be the head of the family was tacitly given to the other.
But Xu Liya was a girl who was brought up in a boudoir and had no idea how to manage the household, so when she encountered problems that could not be solved, she still had to rely on Madam Yu.
Xu Liya was domineering and overbearing, and Madam Yu had to endure it silently most of the time.
Xu Ning's courtyard was not far from Xinyuan. When Madam Yu arrived, she saw Xu Liya just leaving.
She pursed her lips and entered Xu Ning's yard.
"Miss, Miss is going too far! You haven't even finished copying the second chapter yet, and she's already arranged something else for you! How can she bully others like this!"
Chunqiao looked indignant; she really felt sorry for her young lady.
"Her behavior has caused complaints in the mansion, even the eldest young master..."
"Shut up!" Madam Yu scolded sternly.
"How dare you make irresponsible remarks about the master's affairs? The young master made a mistake and should be punished. Stop saying irrelevant things!"
Chunqiao said with a pale face: "Madam is right. I know I am wrong."
Xu Ning remained unmoved and continued copying Buddhist scriptures.
"Since you know you are wrong, go kneel outside and get up on your own after half an hour."
Chunqiao said nothing and went out and knelt.
Everything that happened in the room was seen by the person outside. After waiting for a long time without any further movement, the person left in a hurry.
"Madam, he's gone." Fang Zhi said in a low voice.
Madam Yu and Xu Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Chunqiao is a very honest girl, she doesn't have any ulterior motives, and to put it bluntly, she is stupid. If we let her speak out today, I'm afraid our lives will become difficult again."
Xu Ning said, "Mother, you are worrying too much. I am afraid that my elder sister will not dare to touch us for the time being. My brother's affairs have not only spread throughout the mansion, but also the whole capital is talking about it. Father values his reputation the most. For this reason, he will not leave my elder sister alone."
"The Prime Minister's Mansion is no longer the same as it was before."
Thinking of the news coming out of the study, Madam Yu nodded and said, "You are right. Your father reprimanded the eldest lady today and mentioned your marriage. I am sure he will ask me to discuss this matter soon."
Speaking of marriage, Xu Ning frowned in disgust: "Mom, I don't object to marriage, but I will never become a pawn of my father. If this is the case, I would rather live in seclusion."
Madam Yu patted her hands and motioned her to be at ease: "Don't worry, if it was in the past, mother would still persuade you, but now we have other ways, and we will never sacrifice you again."
The mother and daughter talked for a while, and then Madam Yu left.
"Are you really saying that? They have no complaints?" Xu Liya was a little unconvinced.
The servant replied, "We made Chunqiao kneel down, and then there was no more movement."
Xu Liya felt a sense of suffocation in her heart and felt uncomfortable, so after coming out of the study, she went straight to Xu Ning.
In the past, the other party would have made some arguments, but now they are becoming more and more obedient.
"It must be because the eldest young master was imprisoned. They have no one to rely on in this mansion, so they act cautiously."
When Xu Liya heard this, she felt that it made some sense.
She felt very annoyed when she thought of the warnings her father had given her.
"Okay, you go down."
As Madam Yu expected, when she went to deliver the soup the next day, she was invited into the study to discuss Xu Ning's marriage.
Madam Yu was not concerned about her daughter's marriage. She was secretly observing the situation in the study.
"Ning'er is also of marriageable age. I called you here to ask your opinion."
Madam Yu replied, "Everything will be arranged by the master. The master will definitely choose a good son-in-law."
Xu Tianru was very satisfied with her attitude. He said, "That being said, as an elder, you should also take a closer look."
Madam Yu was not polite and went straight to the point: "Then I'll say it, Ning'er is my only daughter, so naturally I hope she can marry well and help the master. Besides, Ning'er's elder sister is the queen, so I have to be more careful and not let the queen down. Master, am I right?"
Xu Tianru paused, obviously thinking of something.
"You are right. I will be cautious. You can go back first."
Madam Yu bowed and left the study.
Xu Tianru's face darkened instantly: "Call the young lady over!"
He looked at the names on the table and felt more and more annoyed.
After Madam Yu left the study, her face was also gloomy.
The name on the table was actually Shen Siwei!
They caused her son to be thrown into jail, and now they want to harm her daughter. How vicious!
However, she did gain something from this trip to the study.
At least she has already achieved half of her goal by agreeing to the other party's request.
"Shao Bo, Ning'er, mother will never let anything happen to you!"
For several days in a row, Madam Yu was allowed to enter and leave the study, which gave the servants in the mansion a hint.
I’m afraid that Madam Yu is not far from the position of Prime Minister’s wife.
Until the arrival of a visiting letter, this was confirmed.
"The fourth master of the Qian family is seeking the marriage of the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion for his eldest son Qian Jinnian, with countless gifts."
What makes people excited is not the countless betrothal gifts, but the position of Mrs. Qian Jinnian.
There are four brothers and sisters in the Qian family. Qian Wei is married, and the remaining three are only the fourth master of the Qian family who has a son and a daughter. In the future, the Qian family's foundation will definitely be handed over to Qian Jinnian.
If you marry Qian Jinnian, you will be the mistress of the entire Qian family.
Could the betrothal gift be more than what the lady of the house has?
When thinking of this, Xu Tianru instantly thought of Xu Liya.
But Xu Liya refused to marry, and there was chaos in the mansion.
