Since Sun Shaozu discussed this matter with Jia She that day, he looked happy for several days, which made his mother very curious. After asking her, she found out that there was going to be a big wedding in their Sun family.
However, even Old Lady Sun had heard about what kind of family the Rongguo Mansion was. Would their family agree to this marriage?
Not to mention that they are not a good match in terms of family background, they are not even a match in terms of age.
When Sun Shaozu heard that the second daughter of the Jia family was 28 years old, beautiful and talented, Old Lady Sun felt that this matter would not succeed.
Sun Shaozu said, "Jia She has already agreed to my request. It is the parents' order and the matchmaker's words. How dare the second girl disobey her father? Mother, don't worry too much. Just wait for good news from your son."
Sun Shaozu knew very well what kind of person Jia She was. In his eyes, a daughter was just a vassal and nothing special.
Old Lady Sun pondered for a moment and then said, "But I heard that his old lady is a very shrewd person. It is true that the second young lady should listen to her father, but doesn't Jia She also have to listen to his old lady? As long as the old lady doesn't agree, I think he can do nothing."
This made sense. Sun Shaozu knew Jia She very well, but he didn't know the old lady in Rongguo Mansion very well. Hearing this, he couldn't help but frowned, "I'll get Jia She together in a few days and feel out his reaction before making any plans."
Old Lady Sun was very confident in Sun Shaozu. When she thought that her future daughter-in-law would come from a Duke's mansion, she smiled so hard that her teeth were visible.
"He is really a good son of my mother. He is more capable than them all. He even managed to marry into the Duke's Mansion. When the new daughter-in-law gets married, I will have a good talk with those relatives who look down on others."
"Those villains used to bully us because we were in trouble. Now that a girl from the Duke's Mansion has come to our house, they are probably going to bite us to pieces."
“It makes me happy just thinking about it.”
Old Lady Sun suddenly remembered something and pulled Sun Shaozu to worry, "But if we want to marry the girl from the Duke's Mansion, if our betrothal gift is too little, she will definitely not be willing."
But the Sun family had only gradually risen in the past two years, and that little bit of family wealth was saved by her through frugality. If she were really asked to take it all out at once, she would really feel reluctant to do so.
Sun Shaozu smiled, his rough face full of disdain.
"What do you mean by betrothal gifts or not? Just get something casually."
"Jia She still owes me several thousand taels of silver, so I will consider this daughter-in-law as one I bought. I have never heard of buying someone and asking for a betrothal gift."
"If our family contributes something, it can be considered as giving face to the Jia family."
Sun Shaozu's words clearly implied that Jia Yingchun could be bought and sold at will. The smug look on his face was disgusting. There was no trace of the heartbroken look he had shown in front of Jia She.
When Old Lady Sun heard this, she felt secretly excited. No matter how noble the second daughter of the Jia family was, when she came to their Sun family, she was just a bought thing, no different from those maids who served others.
Thinking of this, she was so happy that she wanted to jump three feet high. "When the new daughter-in-law comes home, I will train her well. She can't be the same as when she was a girl. A daughter-in-law should behave like a daughter-in-law, be filial to the elders, be considerate to her husband, and take care of the big and small things at home. Nothing can be missed."
Old Lady Sun had never seen many rich girls, but she thought that girls from large families must be spoiled, unable to lift a needle or thread, and so fragile that they would be blown down by the wind.
This won't do. As long as you enter their Sun family, you must abide by the rules of the Sun family. If you dare to act like a young lady, it's time for me, as the mother-in-law, to step in.
Old Lady Sun warned Sun Shaozu, "I will teach your wife a lesson when the time comes. You can't forget your mother after marrying her. If you dare to take her side, I won't be happy."
Sun Shaozu helped his mother sit down, his strong body was very scary, "Mother, how could you think like this? You gave birth to me and raised me, and she is just an outsider. How could you help her and not you? What kind of person do you think your son is?"
These words made Old Lady Sun very pleased, and she clapped Sun Shaozu's hand and praised him repeatedly.
"This is my good son. We are a family. Your wife is here to continue the family line."
"It's just that my son is too ambitious. He actually found a girl from the Duke's Mansion. She is a hundred times or a thousand times better than those relatives."
Moreover, the dowry of the Duke's Mansion will certainly not be small by then. If they can't present it well, outsiders will definitely laugh at them.
Those things will belong to their Sun family from now on.
Old Lady Sun held her hand in front of her and examined it carefully for a while before she smiled and asked, "Son, do you think my hand looks better with gold or jade?"
It is said that Sun Shaozu and she are biological mother and son. As soon as she heard this, she knew what he meant. Greed flashed in her eyes, "Whatever mother wears will look good. When the time comes, let her take out the things and let mother choose."
Old Lady Sun looked proud, but pretended to be pitiful, and asked again: "What if your wife doesn't want to? I don't want you two to quarrel over these things."
After she finished speaking, she put her hand down angrily without waiting for Sun Shaozu to speak, "I'd rather not take care of you. As long as you two are doing well, it doesn't matter if I suffer a little."
"She dares!" Sun Shaozu patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, mother. If she dares to say no, I will make her suffer. A woman should regard her husband as her heaven. Even if I ask her to die, she can't say no, not to mention that I just ask her to give something to the elders."
Sun Shaozu looked at his mother's wrinkled face, which was the result of working so hard for him. He couldn't help but say with heartache: "Mother has worked so hard for her son for most of her life, it's time for her to enjoy a peaceful life. When she gets married, I will ask her to honor you well. You can choose any gold, silver or jewelry you want, and you can use any maidservants or boys you want."
Old Lady Sun was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. "Mother knows, mother knows. My son is the most filial. Mother is just waiting to enjoy your blessing."
Sun Shaozu made many promises, which made Old Lady Sun very happy. She was touched and sad at the same time. "Mom, go pack up our belongings and see what you can come up with. Don't worry, although our family is not as good as the Duke's Mansion, it is better than other families. Mom will definitely do her best to marry you a daughter-in-law in a grand manner."
But Sun Shaozu knew very well how much stuff his family had. Even if he emptied out the family fortune, the Duke's Mansion would probably not be interested in it.
But his mother's heart is more precious than mountains of gold and silver.
If the Jia family dares to say something behind his back and hurt his mother's feelings, don't blame him for not giving face to the Jia family. He knows everything that Jia She has done, and if he reveals it all, it will be enough to make the Jia family suffer.
