Chapter 143 No matter how high a position a woman holds, she still has to get married and have children!
Over here, Su Xiuxiu saw that her mother's eyes were red, but she didn't know if it was because she was happy.
"Mother, look, now that we have money, can we help my eldest brother's wife, my sister-in-law, into our family? Then we can take her with us to the capital."
Brother Su hurriedly said, "But these were all bestowed upon my little sister by His Majesty."
How could he use his younger sister's money to get married?
Su Xiuxiu was displeased when she heard him say that. "Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by 'yours' and 'mine'? Although I was the one who suggested this heated kang, it was actually implemented and carried out with the help of my brothers and father."
"If it were up to me, I wouldn't be able to manage."
"Moreover, His Majesty also said that this reward is for our whole family, and it is clearly written in the imperial edict."
"Could it be that, elder brother, you don't want to marry Sister Qiu Rong?"
"I want to, of course I want to!" Brother Su said almost without hesitation.
Hu Qiurong is the beloved of the eldest brother of the Su family, and they are also childhood sweethearts, both from Xinghua Village.
Previously, when Su Li knew of her eldest son's feelings, she went to the Hu family to propose marriage.
However, Hu Qiurong is a good person, but her parents are not so good; they only care about money.
They only gave them one month. If the Su family couldn't come up with a dowry of 10 taels, they would have to marry Hu Qiurong off to a wealthy widower!
For the past month, the Su family has been trying their best to raise money, but it still isn't enough.
A month is about to pass.
The eldest brother of the Su family was almost in despair.
Unexpectedly, things have taken a turn for the better.
Madam Su knew that her daughter was a good person and was willing to give her three older brothers money. But while she was willing to give her daughter money, she also wanted her eldest son to be able to get married as he wished, but she couldn't let them take advantage of her daughter too much.
So Su Li said, "How about this, these things are divided into several portions. Your father and I will take one portion, and you three brothers will each take one portion. The remaining six portions are for Xiuxiu."
"OK."
In the eyes of the three Su brothers, one serving was already more than enough.
Su Xiuxiu said, "There are five shops in the shop. One shop will be for my parents, and one shop will be for each of us four siblings. As for mine, since I'm not married yet, I'll leave it to my parents for now. The house will be given to my parents."
"My brothers have started their own families and careers; having a shop would make things much better."
Su Xiuxiu's suggestion was agreed upon by Su Lishi and Su Dagang, but they disagreed with putting their names on the house deed.
In the end, only one change was made, and the house was settled with Su Xiuxiu.
If Su Xiuxiu gets married in the future, the house and shop will be her dowry.
As for the three Su brothers, after getting married, they can stay at home for a year temporarily. After a year, they will have to move out and make a living on their own.
Su Lishi naturally knew that her three sons were good.
But the wives they marry are another story, and people change.
Therefore, in order to avoid any future disputes, some things need to be agreed upon in advance.
Ultimately, this decision was agreed upon by everyone.
Su Xiuxiu, on the other hand, nestled her head on her mother's shoulder, feeling utterly ashamed of herself for being able to meet such wonderful parents and brothers after transmigrating.
She'd be willing to give her so much more than she could ever want from such a wonderful family.
The portion given to the eldest brother of the Su family is more than enough to help him get married.
Because the family was planning to go to the capital, Su Lishi intended to take a matchmaker and betrothal gifts to the Hu family tomorrow to propose marriage.
Let's set a wedding date as soon as possible so we can bring our eldest daughter-in-law to Beijing together.
The matter was settled.
Just then, there was a knock on the gate of the Su family's courtyard. "Who could it be at this hour?" Su Li muttered to herself, and then told her sons to carry the things inside first.
Su Li opened the door only after everything had been carried inside.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Grandma Xu outside, who was already getting impatient with the knocking.
Old Mrs. Xu felt that as the mother of Tong Sheng, she was fawned over wherever she went.
Now, she's been knocking on the door for quite some time before the Su family finally opens it.
They really do get rich overnight and then become arrogant.
However, Grandma Xu also knew why she was there today.
So his expression immediately changed.
Although her expression changed quickly, Su Li had already seen it.
Just ...
She was a little puzzled as to why this old lady Xu had suddenly come to her door at this time.
Meanwhile, the neighbors, who had already gone home after seeing Grandma Xu arrive, all came out to watch the commotion.
"Aunt Xu, is there something you need?"
"Oh, my dear mother-in-law, I came here specifically to congratulate you after hearing that your family received a reward from the Emperor."
Just then, Su Xiuxiu, who was helping her brothers move things, hadn't even come out yet when she heard the words "mother-in-law," and her eyes immediately widened.
The villagers who were watching were also stunned when they heard this.
"Mother-in-law? The Su family and the Xu family are planning a marriage? Could it be that Su Xiuxiu is going to marry Xu Tongsheng?"
"Oh my, this Xu Tongsheng has really struck gold! Su Xiuxiu has only just been appointed as a seventh-rank female official."
"Yeah yeah."
Su Lishi had a bad feeling when she heard Old Madam Xu call her "mother-in-law".
Hearing the villagers' comments would be even worse.
He immediately frowned and looked at Old Madam Xu, "Xu Tongsheng's mother, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by in-laws? I don't understand."
"Oh dear, mother-in-law, what do you mean? How could you not know? Isn't your Xiuxiu engaged to my Congwen?"
Su Li's eyes widened immediately.
She exclaimed in surprise, "What nonsense are you talking about? When did my Xiuxiu get engaged to your Xu Tongsheng?"
"Just a few days ago." Old Mrs. Xu's expression wasn't very good either. Could it be that the Su family, having received the Emperor's reward, looked down on her Congwen?
No matter how high a position a woman holds, she still has to get married and have children!
"I think you're spouting nonsense. You say my Xiuxiu and your Xu Tongsheng are engaged, then show me some tokens!"
Madam Su was quite certain that although she had previously intended for her daughter to marry Xu Tongsheng, they had not yet reached the engagement stage.
Moreover, at that time, Grandma Xu didn't even think much of her Xiuxiu.
Therefore, after discovering that Old Mrs. Xu didn't like her Xiuxiu, she completely gave up on the idea.
She hasn't even been engaged yet, and her potential future mother-in-law already disapproves of her. If she really marries into that family, will things be any better?
just forget it.
Her daughter is meant to be pampered, not abused by others.
She just didn't expect that this old lady Xu would be so shameless. Just today, her family had received a reward and Xiuxiu had even become a seventh-rank official, and this old lady Xu had already changed her attitude and shamelessly came to their door.
Old Mrs. Xu naturally had no token to offer.
"We only made a verbal agreement back then, there was no token of our agreement. Su Li, you wouldn't go back on your word just because you received the Emperor's reward, would you?"
