After being married off, she was favored by the powerful official
Chapter 151 Seeing Old Friends Again
Gu Jin had just learned the story of how Su married into the Marquis' Mansion a few days ago, but he didn't expect to meet the "person involved" so soon.
There was laughter and conversation in the room, but Gu Jin could see the unnatural look on Su's face.
"Mother." Gu Jin called softly.
Su was immediately relieved, and hurriedly pulled Gu Jin over and said, "Jin'er, this is Madam Feng, and she is also my cousin. According to seniority, you should call her aunt."
"Hello, aunt." Gu Jin knelt down and bowed, then looked up and took a close look at Mrs. Feng, Su Wanwan, in front of him.
Su Wanwan's eyebrows and eyes are somewhat similar to Su's. Her eyebrows are rounder than Su's, so she looks more shrewd and sophisticated than Su. Although her pair of almond-shaped eyes are smiling, there is a scrutiny in her eyes.
"This child is Ran'er's wife. She is really bright and beautiful, and she is pleasing to the eye!" As she spoke, Su Wanwan took off a heavy gold bracelet from her wrist and gave it to Gu Jin as a gift.
Gu Jin glanced at Su, and when he saw Su nod, he took it with a smile.
Su Wanwan's eyebrows twitched slightly. It seemed that Gu Jin's behavior was not as greedy for money as people said.
Gu Jin sat down next to Su, looking completely obedient.
Hearing Su Wanwan praising Gu Jin, Su showed a sincere smile on her face, "Jin'er is my lucky star. As soon as she married into the family, all of Ran'er's illnesses were cured.
Now Jin Er not only manages her own business very well, but can also help me manage the household."
Gu Jin hurriedly said, "Mother, you are too kind. You are the one who manages the household well and controls people well. I am just a fox taking advantage of the tiger's power."
Gu Jin deliberately praised Su Shi and took the opportunity to glance sideways at Su Wanwan's expression.
Su Wanwan lowered her eyes and drank tea, so she didn't notice anything.
Su Wanwan put down her teacup, sighed, looked at Su with a sad look and said, "Sister, it's been more than ten years since we last met.
I have had trouble sleeping since I married into the Feng family because I was afraid it would affect our sisterhood.
I wanted to find an opportunity to explain this to you, but after Feng Lang passed the imperial examination, he was arranged to be an official outside the capital, and we were separated for several years.
Sister, are you still blaming me? "
Mrs. Su was stunned. She didn't expect Su Wanwan to mention the old things in front of Gu Jin.
She did feel a little uncomfortable at the time, but so much time had passed that she had long since let it go.
Just as Su was about to speak, Gu Jin said slowly, "Aunt didn't have the chance to explain it to mother back then, but I think she must have explained it to mother in a letter.
The love between sisters is so deep, how could they become enemies because of a misunderstanding? "
Seeing the surprise in Su Wanwan's eyes, Gu Jin covered his mouth and asked in surprise: "Could it be that my aunt has never exchanged letters with my mother for so many years?"
Gu Jin pretended to be annoyed and said at a loss: "Mother, did Jin'er say something wrong?"
Su didn't understand Gu Jin's little thoughts, and just said: "It's okay, it's all in the past, no one will care about it anymore."
Gu Jin smiled at Su Wanwan.
If a person feels guilty and indebted, there are ten thousand ways to make up for it. Stop talking nonsense here!
Su Wanwan wanted to say something when Marquis Yongchang happened to return from outside.
Looking at the majestic and powerful Marquis Yongchang, Su Wanwan's eyes clearly flashed with surprise and astonishment.
Seeing that there were guests, the Yongchang Marquis did not stay long. He just put the food box in his hand on the table and said to Su in a gentle voice, "Yesterday I saw that you had eaten all the candied fruit, so I bought some for you on the way back home today.
You guys chat, I'll go back to the study first."
Su nodded and stood up to see Marquis Yongchang off.
For Su, this was a routine respect between husband and wife, but in Su Wanwan's eyes, it was more like a loving relationship between husband and wife.
Gu Jin had been staring at Su Wanwan and found that the smile on her lips had faded a little since Marquis Yongchang appeared.
Su Wanwan ate a piece of candied fruit and found it very sour, so she drank a sip of strong tea to suppress the sourness in her mouth. She casually asked, "I remember that the Marquis has a concubine, who is the younger sister of the Marquis's first wife. Is she respectful to you?"
"Don't worry, Auntie. Auntie Xu is now placed by my father in the Buddhist temple next to my eldest brother's yard to take care of my eldest sister-in-law's pregnancy."
"She is my aunt, how can she do the work of a servant?" Su Wanwan blurted out in surprise.
Gu Jin smiled and replied leisurely: "My aunt is not considered the master of the mansion. She offended my mother with her words before, so my grandmother and father ordered her to stay in the courtyard.
If it weren't for the fact that her eldest sister-in-law was pregnant and needed her care, she would still be locked up in the yard and not allowed to go out!"
Su Wanwan's mouth twitched, "As expected of a marquis's mansion, the rules are stricter than those of our ordinary mansions."
"Of course. Not to mention her, even our second wife was sent to the Wanfo Temple to reflect on her mistakes for being disrespectful to our mother."
Su Wanwan's calm expression was obviously beginning to wear thin, and she said perfunctorily with a fake smile, "I'm relieved that the Marquis' Mansion values you so much."
After drinking a cup of tea, Su Wanwan resigned on the grounds of having something to do at home. Gu Jin watched her leave and gradually confirmed Xie Ran's previous guess.
Regardless of whether Su Wanwan did what happened back then, at least it can be seen that she didn't want to see the Su family live a good life.
Su Wanwan stepped onto the carriage of the Feng Mansion without a trace of smile on her face, "What a bargain, Su Xiuxiu!"
She had clearly arranged for a ruffian to rescue Su Xiuxiu, but she didn't expect that it was Marquis Yongchang who rescued her in the end.
Marquis Yongchang was older than them and was a military general. They had originally thought that he would be a ferocious old man, but today they saw that he was quite heroic.
When she thought about how that fool Su Xiuxiu could live a prosperous life in a powerful family like the Marquis' Mansion, while after marrying into the Feng family, she had to serve her parents-in-law cautiously and face the troubles from her sister-in-law, she felt that God was really unfair!
When Su Wanwan returned to the Feng family, she saw Feng Shenghao flirting with the maid.
Feng Shenghao was also a handsome man when he was young, but now he has grown older and his waist has become much thicker, and his hair is also becoming thinner.
Seeing him exuding charm towards the little maid again, Su Wanwan felt as if a piece of lard had stuck in her throat, making her feel greasy.
Feng Shenghao saw her coming back and asked, "Are you back?"
After a pause, he chose his words carefully and said, "How is Xiuxiu? Is she doing well? Is she... still blaming you and me?"
Su Wanwan felt a surge of nameless anger in her heart, and said unhappily: "My husband, you are joking. Xiuxiu is now the wife of the Marquis's Mansion, living a life of luxury and luxury. Even when she drinks tea, she has a special maid to serve her.
The Marquis of Yongchang is also handsome and treats her like a treasure. Now she is the mistress of the Marquis's mansion, so majestic that she has no time to think about you and me."
Feng Shenghao felt a little disappointed after hearing this. After all, they had been engaged. If he was just forgotten about like that, wouldn't it make him seem completely unattractive?
Su Wanwan originally thought that she had married well, after all, Feng Shenghao was young and promising. But now that she had seen the wealth of the Marquis's Mansion, she suddenly felt that it was all boring. Even the man in front of her, whom she had worked so hard to snatch away, was no longer pleasing to her eyes.
"I forgot to tell you that we are going to stay in the capital. The Ministry of Personnel has temporarily assigned me to the Ministry of Revenue as an assistant minister."
"Really?" Su Wanwan's eyes lit up. While pouring tea for Feng Shenghao, she asked for details. Suddenly, she felt that her man was still quite good-looking.
Feng Shenghao didn't say much. Su Wanwan only knew that the Ministry of Revenue was a good job. Only he knew that after this, he had completely boarded Prince Yu's ship, and from then on, he had no choice but to do what he wanted...
