Su Xun didn't think that marrying a wealthy family or a promising young man would be a good destination. He himself had not made any achievements, and he had relied on his father's shadow all his life, living and waiting to die.
Therefore, in his opinion, his daughter is not short of money, Li Linsheng is well-educated, and is a careful and meticulous person. It is okay if he treats his daughter wholeheartedly.
As for the future of future generations, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, so he doesn't want to go so far.
Of course, if ordinary people promised not to have concubines in their lives, he would not believe it. There were many people who abandoned their wretched wives and married darling wives and took concubines. But Li Lin said it was the ancestral teaching, so he believed it.
If you violate the ancestral precepts, you will be unworthy of your descendants and will be stabbed in the back by the world.
Li Lin didn't dare.
Su Wan came to her senses and said, "There is nothing my daughter doesn't want to do. All she needs to do is obey her father. The father will never harm her daughter."
When Su Xun heard this, she was very satisfied. She felt that her daughter was really considerate and gentle. If other girls knew that she was going to marry a poor and humble boy, they would jump up. She was so gentle and gentle. Tell your father.
"Then if your grandparents bring up this matter, father will accept it for you, but don't worry, father will definitely not let you suffer." Although he thinks that this young man Li Lin is pretty good, but the timing is just right, always I want to get more benefits for my daughter.
"If others say anything in the future, don't take it to heart and just live your life happily."
"My daughter knows."
Su Xun looked at his delicate daughter and sighed in his heart. In a blink of an eye, his daughter was older and it was time to get engaged. He thought he was still a young and energetic young man.
"Okay, you're not feeling well yet. Go back and have a good rest. Father will make the decision for you."
"yes."
Su Wan drank a cup of tea, then took Xiao Sang to say goodbye and left. Su Xun here was drinking tea and was in a good mood.
Mrs. Li on the side felt that something was wrong, and she was worried for a long time before asking him: "Third Master, do you really think that Mr. Li is good?!"
"Of course." Su Xun was quite satisfied with Li Lin, "Young man, he is very knowledgeable and good-looking, how can he be so bad? What's more important is the ancestral motto of his family. Ah Wan has a gentle temperament and will not fight. If she were to live in a high-end mansion instead of robbing her, she might be killed, so it would be better for her to get married and live a peaceful life."
Li asked, "But if A-Wan is married to someone worse than her sisters, and if she grovels when we meet in the future, she will feel happy."
Marrying is like reincarnation. The first half of your life depends on your family's parents, and the second half of your life depends on your husband's family. If you marry poorly, you will have to bow and kneel when you meet others in the future. How many people can tolerate that?
It is precisely because of this that the girls all climbed up on tiptoes.
Su Xun said: "He told me that he has no intention of pursuing an official career, and he will not have much time to return to the Imperial City in the future. Locally, A Wan is married and is still the aunt of the Marquis of Jinning. Who dares to bully her? .”
Ms. Li disagreed a little, but she felt that marrying well was really good.
Her natal family was originally a wealthy businessman. Because she had no power, she received a lot of criticism. People here and there wanted to come over and make a fortune. That is to say, she married Su Xun and had a relationship with the Jinning Marquis Mansion. Only then did those people I didn’t dare, and my family easily got the Huangshang brand.
Therefore, Mrs. Li married Su Xun as her stepmother. Both she and her family could not be more satisfied.
However, she did not dare to say these words to Su Xun. Su Wan was not her biological daughter after all. If she said this and something happened in the future, she would be blamed.
Marquis Jinning and Wang thought about it and finally made a decision. The next day they sent someone to invite Su Xun to Fupingyuan to talk about the matter.
Mrs. Wang sat on a rose armchair and took a sip of tea: "The promise made by your father cannot be broken easily. After careful calculation, only Ah Wan is suitable now. If you are unwilling, try to find a way to compensate Li That’s it, young master, it’s me and your father who can’t stand up to you and Ah Wan.”
It would be good to use other means of compensation, but I am afraid that people outside will say that the Jinning Marquis Mansion is ungrateful and does not keep its promises, and I am also afraid that if Li Lin disagrees, he will cause trouble. His reputation is not good. If your Majesty hears this, I am afraid he will be dissatisfied with the Marquis of Jinning.
When people are in this world, keeping their promises is a good conduct. No one dares to believe an ungrateful person.
Marquis Jinning was also helpless: "It's my fault. I shouldn't have made such a promise in the first place."
Su Xun was not as angry as Jinning Marquis and Wang expected. He just smiled and said: "What are you talking about, father and mother? I think Mr. Li is pretty good. Besides, it is also A Wan's duty to share the worries of my grandparents." Of course, I have nothing against internal affairs."
"Yesterday I went out and met Mr. Li by chance, and drank a few cups of tea with him. He told me about this." Su Xun slowly talked about the events of that day, "I think this marriage is good. Yesterday I also asked A Wan, and she is also willing."
"It's just that Ah Wan has been wronged after all when she marries Mr. Li. My father and mother have to pay more in the dowry."
High-end mansions also have this unwritten rule. Generally, a concubine's dowry is only one thousand taels to three thousand taels of silver when she marries. When she got married, she was given a lot of dowry, and Li also brought a lot of dowry when she married into the Su family.
Wang didn't expect that Su Xun thought Li Lin was good. She was stunned for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses.
"Of course, I have discussed with your eldest brother and sister-in-law before about the dowry for Ah Fu from the palace. Ah Fu is the legitimate daughter, and she will be married to Prince Zhao's palace. The Duke plans to pay 20,000 taels of silver. If Ah Wan is willing, the Duke will pay. Forty thousand, as a grandmother, I will give her another ten thousand."
"I also selected some of the things I have saved over the years to give to her. These are all things that Afu doesn't have."
Mrs. Wang now hates Mrs. Yang and Su Fu so much that she naturally won't leave anything to her. Some of her things will be given to Su Wan and some to Su Ling Su Luo, but not to anyone else.
"As for what supplements you want to make for her, that's your business. We don't care. Some of the things Yue brings are in my care, and some of them are in Li's care. They will be handed over to her when the time comes."
After careful calculation, when Su Wan gets married, the family fortune will be comparable to that of the Jinning Marquis Mansion. The Jinning Marquis Mansion has only been rich for twenty years and has not accumulated much. The marriage of the grandchildren has been completed. , it is estimated that the family will be drained.
When Su Xun heard this, he was indeed very satisfied: "Then the son will thank his mother."
