After rebirth, I win people's hearts by being cute
Chapter 101 Acting
Mrs. Xu took a sip of tea and disagreed, "First get married and then start a career. This is the rule set by our ancestors, and we should abide by it."
Chu Wan smiled with a fake smile, "Mrs. Xu is right."
Seeing that there was a play, Madam Xu hurriedly said to Xu Jiuyan: "Jiuyan, take Miss Liu out for a walk. I will talk to Madam Guan."
Xu Jiuyan enthusiastically climbed onto Liu Huan's hand, "Guyu, let's go out for a walk."
After saying that, he seemed to have just remembered and said, "Oh, sorry, I forgot that your name is Liu Huan now. Let's go."
Liu Huan let her pull him out.
After everyone left, Madam Xu asked someone to close the door and asked, "I heard that Lord Su is engaged?"
Su Wan couldn't stop smiling when she heard this: "Yes, the two of them have been engaged since they were young. They are childhood sweethearts. My mother personally found a wife for my brother."
Mrs. Xu's face turned a little unhappy when she heard this, but she recovered quickly. "It is true. In the countryside, parents only care about finding a wife for their son. In fact, in the capital, there is a lot of knowledge involved."
Su Wan pretended not to know, "Mrs. Xu, just say whatever you want to say. I am a country woman, I really don't understand these things."
Mrs. Xu then said, "Lord Su is a handsome man. Although he is the top scholar in the imperial examination, his official position is not good enough."
"If he has a good family to help him, he can move up in the official rank within two years. Otherwise, relying on his own ability, I am afraid it may take more than ten years for him to succeed."
Su Wan showed a surprised and shocked expression, "But are you serious?"
Madam Xu continued to persuade him, "It's true. All the officials in Kyoto are related to each other. Only in this way can you go far."
Su Wan was very embarrassed, "But, my family has already arranged a sister, Liu Huan, for my brother."
Madam Xu said seriously, "It's not difficult. Just give her some extra money and marry her to a good family. They won't treat her badly anyway."
Su Wan shook her head and refused, "No, a high monk once said that Liu Huan is a blessed person. My brother was able to pass the high school because of her. If we abandon her casually, everything will be gone."
Madam Xu didn't expect this to happen, and said reluctantly: "Then let's keep her as a concubine. We can't ruin Lord Su's future just because of a monk's words, right?"
Su Wan nodded seriously, "Madam is right, but I don't know which matchmaker Madam wants to secure?"
Mrs. Xu wanted to talk about her own daughter, but was afraid of other mishaps, so she said, "She is a niece from my mother's family. She has a good family background and good looks. Lord Su is a rare young man. They are really a match made in heaven."
After praising him a lot, he looked at Su Wan and said, "What do you think?"
Su Wan showed a very satisfied expression, "That's great."
Soon he showed a dejected look again, "Mrs. Xu, you may not know that my brother is very stubborn and I can't control him at all. How about this, I'll go back and talk to him. If he's willing, I'll give you a letter?"
Mrs. Xu was a little dissatisfied when she saw that she got this answer after saying so much.
"The eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister is like a mother. You should make the decision for him."
Su Wan smiled and waved her hands, "I dare not do this. My parents are still alive, so it's not my turn to make the decision."
All the proposals were disparaged, Mrs. Xu looked very unhappy, and Su Wan didn't want to continue acting.
He stood up and bowed, saying, "Madam, if everything is fine, I will go back first."
Mrs. Xu lost interest completely and waved her hand, "Go ahead."
Su Wan came out and found Liu Huan in the yard.
"Why are you alone? Where's Miss Xu?"
Liu Huan held a piece of straw in his mouth and said, "I don't know. He just took me out and left."
"Mrs. Xu has finished talking to you?"
Su Wan almost couldn't help laughing: "That's it, didn't you say you were going to see the princess? It's not appropriate for me to go, how about I go back first?"
Liu Huan took her hand and said, "No need, the princess is easy to get along with. I'll take you to meet her."
Led by the maid, the two of them went to the princess's courtyard, and Xu Jiuyan entered the house from outside.
"Mom, how is it?"
Mrs. Xu looked disgusted, "Your whole family is not presentable. You don't like so many outstanding men, but you like this one."
Xu Jiuyan said dissatisfiedly: "Mom, the Su family is not presentable. What does it have to do with Brother Su? I won't live with them after I get married. What will Sister Su say?"
Madam Xu recounted the conversation between the two, but Xu Jiuyan grasped the key point, "So, the Su family actually didn't object, it was just because of Liu Huan's identity?"
Mrs. Xu nodded hesitantly, "I guess so."
Xu Jiuyan smiled smugly: "I was wondering why Brother Su would fall for such a person. So it's because of this. That's easy to deal with."
Madam Xu said cautiously, "Don't mess around."
Xu Jiuyan gave her a reassuring look, "Don't worry, I will definitely let Brother Su see my good side and accept me."
Mrs. Xu was proud of it. "My son is not bad. If he were not blind, he would know how to choose."
The two were complacent, and Liu Huan had already brought Su Wan to the princess's courtyard.
From a distance, I could hear the maidservant's worried voice, "What should we do if we keep vomiting like this?"
Liu Huan approached and asked, "What's going on?"
Seeing Liu Huan coming over, the group bowed to her, "Sister Guyu."
A maid explained, "The princess is suffering from severe morning sickness. She throws up everything she eats. Even the imperial physician can't help her."
"Take me to see it"
Liu Huan entered the house, but Su Wan asked someone to take her to the kitchen.
The princess wanted to cry when she saw Liu Huan, and she stretched out her hand and said aggrievedly: "You are here."
Xu Zijin on the side felt embarrassed, he knew that he was being disliked.
Liu Huan stepped forward and held her back, "Why is it so serious?"
The princess sniffed and said, "I don't know. I felt so uncomfortable, but the imperial physician said it was normal." After saying that, she glared at Xu Zijin fiercely, her eyes full of resentment.
"Has the princess come to see you?"
"She comes every day, but she just left today. There's nothing we can do if she comes."
Wiping away tears, she said, "Being a woman is a torment. My mother gave birth to four children. I will never give birth to any more in the future."
The princess is only sixteen years old this year. Getting pregnant at such a young age must have been a little more difficult than for others.
The princess nestled in Liu Huan's arms, and Xu Zijin beside her said, "Why don't you let Liu Huan eat with you?"
Hearing this, the princess' stomach churned again and she said angrily, "Get out!"
"But……"
The princess is now at the stage where she feels sick even when she hears the word "eat", and her face has become as thin as an oval.
"Brother Xu, why don't you go out first? I'll sit with the princess for a while."
Xu Zijin nodded, "Thank you for your help."
After everyone left, the princess said dissatisfiedly: "You stinky man, you only know how to ask me to eat, but you don't care whether I can eat or not, you just worry about starving his son."
Liu Huan hugged her and comforted her: "Brother Xu is just worried about you..."
