Only when the Xie family gets better and Xie Yanzhi establishes a firm foothold in the court, will the Su family truly have a strong support.
Business people, especially wealthy gentry, must have people who can protect them from behind.
Otherwise, some people will be jealous and want to get you easily.
They work together with local corrupt officials to find a crime and imprison you at will, which can make you bankrupt and ruin your family.
When Su Mingshan heard that Xie Yanzhi was fine, she felt reassured, and then a sincere smile appeared on her face.
I am happy not only for Li Yuan and her daughter, but also for my family!
"In that case, I would like to congratulate Sister Li and brother-in-law in advance. When the list comes out tomorrow, our Su family will set up several tables in Yunxiang Tower to congratulate brother-in-law."
"Sister Su, we are all our own people, so we don't need to be so outsider. That girl Caiwei has been preparing for a long time. Then we will set up a few tables at home for our own family to eat. For example, your brother-in-law's classmates and friends, let him go out Just please.”
Su Mingshan likes to hear her words, which means that Li Yuan intends to get closer to her.
Hearing this, the smile on her face became even brighter.
"Okay, is there anything you need my help with? Whether it's cooking or shopping, my Su family can provide it."
Li Yuan replied with a smile on her face: "Brother Xie left this job to Caiwei, and now the little girl and her cousin are taking care of it. I really don't know what you're asking about, you have to do it yourself Ask her. This is her first time doing this, and she doesn’t understand a lot. As a master, you can give some pointers. It’s hard for me to ask, otherwise the little girl will think that I don’t trust her. "
Su Mingshan knew that many matrons of wealthy families would take their daughters of the appropriate age with them and teach them personally when entertaining guests at home.
The older one, thirteen or fourteen years old. Those who are younger will start teaching when they are six or seven years old.
Caiwei is at the right age now.
The Xie family will only rely on their brother-in-law to enter the official career in the future, and they will only go higher and higher. Although Caiwei is not her biological child, with Sister Li as her mother, she is not far behind.
Her teachings cannot be neglected. You must understand everything you need to know, lest anyone talk about it in the future.
Her Su Mingshan's apprentices were not necessarily the best girls, but they were definitely among the best.
How can I be criticized for such a trivial matter?
Thinking about this, Su Mingshan said: "In that case, I will ask her later. Sister Li, my father has slowly transferred all the things in his hands to me recently, so he may be a little busy and not very free. By then Is it okay if I find someone to come over and teach Caiwei?"
"You have to ask Caiwei about this. As long as it's for her good, I have no objection, but it depends on her. Also, the other person's character must be good. Caiwei's age is just the time for learning. Don't learn any bad habits. Plus, Qingsha likes to follow her sister, and she especially likes to imitate her."
"This is natural! Caiwei is my apprentice, and I hope she will be well. Sister Li, you can rest assured."
When Su Mingshan said this, she stood up and said, "I'm just bringing someone here to show you, Sister Li. Since I've already seen it, I'll take a step forward. Before I leave, I'll take Caiwei with me. You'll be here on my engagement day in two days, is it okay to pick her up again?"
As she said this, she felt that it would not be a good idea to leave Qingsha alone like this.
Her sister Li had just come back, and she didn't even get together with her brother-in-law much before the autumn holidays began.
If she takes away the two children, won't Sister Li and her husband also have space to be alone?
After all, there are completely different things between having children and not having children!
Thinking this way, she changed her mind directly: "Sister Li, you said Qingsha likes to follow Caiwei, why don't I take both children there. It just so happens that my family is big, there are few people, and it is very deserted. My parents They all like Caiwei and Qingsha. My parents will be very happy if their sisters come over. After the fourteenth engagement is over, it will be the same for you, Sister Li, to take them away."
Li Yuan was a little hesitant. She knew that when a wealthy family got engaged, the house would be very busy and chaotic.
Although Su Mansion has few owners, it does not mean that there are few things to do.
At this time, it should be the busiest time, so how can it be said that it is deserted?
"Sister Su, your house should be the busiest now, so Caiwei and Qingsha don't want to bother you too much. In this way, if you have something to tell Caiwei today, then I will ask her to go back with you, and I will ask her to go back with you tomorrow morning. Uncle Li will pick her up. When you get engaged the day after tomorrow, can we, mother and daughter, go together?"
Seeing Li Yuan's persistence, Su Mingshan didn't hesitate and immediately agreed: "That's okay, sister Li, I'll see you the day after tomorrow!"
"good!"
Li Yuan said and personally pulled Su Mingshan out. As she walked, she looked sideways at her: "You will be happy, right?"
Su Mingshan did not laugh this time, but stopped and looked at Li Yuan seriously: "Sister Li, I have always known what I want. I think it is good now. Brother Ting is a good person and treats me well. He is my The best choice, I also believe that I will not make the wrong choice. There are many choices that a person will face in this life. I am not a child and I cannot do whatever I want."
When Li Yuan heard the words "Let your heart be your own will," she knew what she was referring to, and asked softly: "Really let go?"
Su Mingshan burst out laughing: "Look at what you said, Sister Li, there is nothing you can let go of. You can't let it go. I don't have much interaction with Chen Hao, so I fell in love with him because he is really good." He is a very excellent man. It is normal for excellent people to attract people, right? It’s just that I have a few pounds and a few taels, and I am well-connected, so there is no need. Chen Hao is probably the same. Our past, but It’s just a collaboration!”
Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she said these words easily and there was no trace of stubbornness or grievance in her eyes.
So, that’s pretty good!
If it's not suitable, it's better to let go, just like Yan Jiao now.
She didn't know what to tell her uncle and aunt when she returned. The house in Fucheng was given to her cousins, and she and her uncle and aunt left on the tenth day of the lunar month with simple luggage and money.
She didn't go out and Yan Jiao didn't say anything, so she didn't know. It was only after she left, on the afternoon of the tenth day of the lunar month, that her cousin came over to inform her.
Let's go. It's okay to go.
If there is no result, there is no need to interfere.
Leaving a familiar place and going to a strange place can start over.
*
On the day of Su Mingshan's engagement, Xie Yanzhi entered the examination room again.
After Li Yuan took him in with Qingsha and Caiwei, she asked Old Man Li to drive directly to the Su Mansion.
Today's Su Mansion is decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and it is full of joy.
As soon as the mother and daughter's carriage arrived at the door, Ou Kui, the hostess of the Su family, came over to greet them.
