I fought back after reselling my engagement

Su Shao said: "Father, is there a high chance that Wen Jiang and Su Mo's marriage will be successful?"

Su Jingzhai snorted, "Before Su Mo left Jiangnan, the Sect Master's wife was arranging a marriage for him with the daughter of Jiangnan Governor Yao. Although she said she had seen a noble lady, with the Sect Master's wife's mind, she would naturally prefer to marry her niece from her natal family as her wife."

Calculating the horoscope is just a lie to fool people.

Su Shao sighed, "Since they have been seeing each other since early in the morning, why did Su Mo stay around Wen Jiang? Now that Wen Jiang is in love, this matter is..."

If it doesn't work out, it will be Wen Jiang in his family who will suffer from love.

Wen Jiang lost her mother at a young age, left alone and helpless, and attached great importance to her family. How could they bully a weak girl?

Su Jingzhai said, "When I came back from the government office today, the housekeeper told me that Su Mo had received a letter from home in Jiangnan."

Su Wulang replied: "Grandfather, I know about this. It is said that the old lady is seriously ill and wants Brother Mo to come home to see her for the last time."

Su Shao was silent for a moment, "The old sect master's wife is over seventy years old this year?"

"seventy two."

I heard that she was over 70 years old, but she was a famous beauty in Jiangnan when she was young. She was good at taking care of herself all her life, so she looked to be in her early 50s at most. This branch of the Jiangnan Su family not only had disciples who were proficient in medicine, but also offered two imperial doctors who had retired from the palace.

Su Jingzhai was a little skeptical about the fact that he was seriously ill.

Su Wulang said: "Brother Mo is going back to Jiangnan."

If an elder is seriously ill, he must stay away from home.

The three were just talking about this when the servant outside reported, "My lord, Third Master, Master Mo wants to see you!"

"welcome!"

Su Mo entered the study room, and when he came over, he saw three members of the Su family discussing matters in the study room.

"I've met my clan uncle."

Su Jingzhai nodded. "It's so late, why haven't you gone to bed yet?"

He did not rest, but was busy packing his luggage, and ordered Su Qiye to go to the dock to buy a boat ticket, and he would return to Jiangnan early tomorrow morning. The old master's wife was seriously ill, and this letter was written by his grandmother. He was the only male in the eldest son's family, and he was loved by his grandfather and grandmother since he was a child. Before his grandfather passed away, he promised his grandfather to be a good young master.

"My grandmother is seriously ill. I will be going back early tomorrow morning."

I really have to go back.

The old clan leader's wife is already in her seventies. Su Jingzhai couldn't tell whether this was a real illness or a fake one. Going back to her hometown to honor her grandmother was something that no one could stop or talk about, and even if he had doubts, he couldn't express them.

"I'll ask the cook to prepare some cakes for the journey." Su Shao called out "Someone come here" and gave a few instructions to the servant outside the door.

Su Jingzhai said: "The old sect master's wife has taught more than a dozen girls, and after they got married, they were either wives of noble families or wives of famous families, and they were quite praised.

You will set off tomorrow and take my seventh daughter to Jiangnan. I will personally write a letter and ask your grandmother and mother to teach her.

We have spoiled the Seventh Girl to the point of being lawless. Not only does she love to compete with others for material possessions, but she can also scheme against and harm her own family just for a piece of jewelry promised by someone else."

Su Mo heard today that Su Qinniang was admitted to the Mingzhu Society in Beijing. He also heard the servants talking about how Su Qinniang was going to return to Beijing with Princess Changle.

"Sister Seventh Clan won't return to Beijing?"

Su Jingzhai said, "We are both in Yueyang Prefecture, why would a little girl like her return to the capital?"

The Seventh Girl is simple-minded and has no scheming. If she returns to Beijing and is plotted against by those cunning noble ladies in the capital, she will have to help others and pass the knife.

I didn't realize it before, but now the difference between aristocratic families and small families is revealed in educating their children. Cui Shi didn't manage the dowry, family property, farm, and shop well, and I only expected her to teach her daughter well, but she didn't do well in this regard. Su Qinniang was taught by her to be vain and betray her family for a hairpin.

Although Su Jingzhai knew that Su Qiniang had many problems, they were all minor ones in the past. But this incident reminded him. A rich girl cannot make things happen, but she can ruin things. The Su family does not need girls to add icing on the cake, but they will never allow another woman like Su Qi to appear.

Su Wan's life was ruined by the Su Qi siblings.

The loved ones hurt, the enemies quick.

Even though they found out the truth later, they were still disappointed and in pain. Moreover, after Su Wan passed away, the old couple felt guilty towards her and could not bring themselves to harm their own children. However, they could not forget the disappointment and sadness.

Su Jingzhai absolutely did not want to see another Su Qi.

Su Qi harmed Su Wan, and he couldn't let Su Qinnan make the same mistake again.

Su Mo clasped his fists and said, "Uncle, my sister from my seventh clan will not join the Mingzhu Society in Beijing. I wonder if this membership card can be transferred to a girl from the Jiangnan Su family?"

Su Shao looked surprised.

Su Wulang said, "Grandfather, I heard that Lou Erniang from the Dahongxi Restaurant in Yueyang Prefecture passed the needlework test of the Mingzhu Society, but earlier, the Lou family had agreed that after Lou Erniang got the test card, she would pass it on to Lou Yuanniang from the eldest branch. The eldest branch transferred the Dahongxi Restaurant in Tanzhou to the second branch."

Su Shao said: "Can the name card be transferred?"

"The Imperial College admission card can be transferred, let alone the Pearl Society's admission card."

The estimated value of Tanzhou Dahongxi Restaurant is not low. The second branch of the Lou family is a concubine's daughter, and the eldest branch is a legitimate daughter. For the sake of a restaurant, they let their own daughter get the business card, but then sold it to someone else.

Su Shao said: "Will Princess Changle and the nobles in the palace allow it?"

"As long as their status is equal and their strength is not too bad, everyone will turn a blind eye. I heard that this was also a common practice in the capital earlier."

The name card that the Fourth Prince's wife used to join the society was originally from her elder sister. If her elder sister had not passed the Mingzhu Society, the Fourth Prince's wife would not have been chosen by the Fourth Prince and Concubine Wan. Since there is a precedent, others will follow suit.

At the Mao family, the old lady and the first wife wanted Mao Liuniang to give the name card to Mao Yuanniang. But Mao Liuniang took the name card and filled in her own name, which made the old lady so angry that she almost vomited blood. A girl can only participate in the Mingzhu Society's entrance competition once in her life. If she fails, she can't participate again.

Because Mao Yuanniang was defeated by Mao Liuniang last time, the girls of the Mao family who failed the test earlier cannot take part in the test again. You know, there is another competition later, and the Mao family has to be placed in the next round.

None of the girls from the Mao family who took part in the second batch of competitions passed. There will be poetry and calligraphy and painting competitions tomorrow. It is said that the poetry competition will be in the morning and the calligraphy and painting competition will be in the afternoon. Princess Changle has five name cards in her hand, and it is yet to be determined who will win.

The Su family girl had also wanted to take part in the Mingzhu Society competition, but she was unable to make it. Although there were noble ladies from Jiangnan participating in the competition, they were either relatives or their ancestral home was in Hunan Province.

Su Shao said: "Qiniang's temper needs to be tempered. Father, I asked her to give the name card to the young lady from the Jiangnan Su family, she will definitely not refuse!"

This may not be the case.

If Su Qinnan knew that the business card she obtained after passing numerous tests would be given to the girl from the Su family in Jiangnan, she would jump up and down and scream.

Su Jingzhai said, "Just talk to the Seventh Girl and ask the Third Madam to pack her belongings. You will personally escort the Seventh Girl to the Jiangnan Su Clan."

Su Shao responded.

Su Mo showed a satisfied smile. With the invitation card from Mingzhu Society, the Jiangnan Su family would have a girl marrying the prince. Even if she was to be a concubine, it was still a big step forward.
