The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Whether you believe it or not, it all depends on you.

Seeing that what their mother said was so miraculous, Mrs. Lu and the others did not bring it up any further. They all hoped that the old lady would live to be a hundred years old.

This year, more and more elderly people have passed away in Beijing. After attending several funeral banquets, they began to feel a little worried, fearing that the old lady would leave without saying goodbye one day.

Especially Mrs. Lu, when she thought about the old lady leaving them in the future, she felt so sad that she couldn't hold back her tears.

She had been married for over twenty years, and the eldest and fourth masters of the family had their own things to do and were rarely with her mother. On the contrary, after so many years of companionship, this mother-in-law had become almost like her biological mother.

"Mother, please don't say such things. You should stay with us for a long time. When Kang Ge'er gets married and has children, you will have great-grandchildren to look after."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Lu has already started looking for a wife for Kang Ge'er.

Song Shengfu calculated that Kang Ge'er was not yet fifteen years old.

People in ancient times got married early, but fifteen years old was a little too early.

According to Mrs. Lu, if they start discussing marriage now, by the time the ceremony is over, she will be about seventeen or eighteen years old.

Some who got married early have children at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

When Kang Ge'er heard this, he became unusually shy.

"Mother, I'm only fourteen. There's no need to rush."

"Stop talking nonsense. What do you mean you're fourteen? You're already fifteen, and you're still fourteen."

Kang Ge'er curled his lips. It was always like this: his mother calculated his age based on his lunar age even though he had just turned one.

He doesn't want to get married yet. He has no future yet, so how can he get married so soon?

"Anyway, I'm not in a hurry. If you're anxious, go ahead and marry me."

After saying this, Kang Ge'er slipped away.

"Hey! This kid!"

Mrs. Lu was in disbelief, and felt that her son was becoming more and more annoying as he grew older.

When I was a child, I found everything about her a treasure, but now I find everything about her unpleasant.

Song Shengfu sat there, her eyes on her nose and her nose on her heart, in silence.

This scene has been played out almost every few days since Kang Ge'er turned fourteen.

"Mother, look at him. He's grown up now and isn't obedient at all. He's not as sensible as he was when he was little."

Song Shengfu thought about it and realized that he was also very ignorant when he was a child.

Ding Meishu was comforting her, and Lu was angry for a while before she continued to pick up the embroidery in her hands.

"Speaking of which, it's time to slowly plan Sister Wei's marriage. There are so many outstanding young men in the capital, we have to look for them in advance, otherwise, when we are left with those ugly ones, how can they be worthy of our sister?"

Now the Shen family has no mistress, so Sister Wei has been living in the uncle's house.

Then naturally, she, the aunt, would have to worry more about the marriage, and Mrs. Lu would rather the children stay at home.

When he said this, he had already sent the other children out.

Mrs. Lu was a little worried and mentioned Shen Xianli to her mother.

"Mother, what are your plans for Sister Wei and their father's remarriage? The two children are almost grown up, and especially Sister Wei, when she gets married, without a mistress by her side, she's bound to be looked down upon by her in-laws."

After all, their family is my maternal grandparents' family, so there is a level of difference in relationship.

It is said that one cannot marry the eldest daughter without a mother. This is a fatal flaw. Therefore, in order to find a good marriage for Wei Jie'er, Shen Xianli has to marry a mistress for Wei Jie'er even if he himself is unwilling.

"I've looked at a few before, but I just don't think they're suitable. Let's look around for now. You can also look around and see if there's anything suitable. We can discuss it."

Song Shengfu has also been keeping an eye on this matter, but the girls she likes are too young, and her son-in-law is probably in his thirties, so it doesn't seem suitable no matter how you look at it.

Song Shengfu always felt that the old man and the young wife were not a good match.

So it has been delayed until now. There was a promising company before, but Shen Xianli refused at that time. Now that he is getting older, it is getting harder to find a partner.

Perhaps in Song Shengfu's eyes, Shen Xianli is old, but in the eyes of others, he is a man in his prime with a bright future in the government.

"Before, my third brother-in-law was always reluctant. When he comes next time, we have to bring up this matter with him again. He can put it off, but Wei Jie'er and Xuan Ge'er can't."

Mrs. Lu really worries about this family.

Seeing Lu like this, Song Shengfu didn't say anything.

She rarely believed that there were people in this world who were deeply in love. As for Shen Xianli, he might love his wife in his heart and want to stay with her for the rest of his life.

But the reality makes it difficult for him to do this. He doesn't need a wife, but his children need their mother.

Song Shengfu pouted secretly in her heart. There was nothing she could do about the way the world was, but in her previous life she had never seen how good that "mother" was to Wei Jie'er and Xuan Ge'er.

Especially after having my own children, my heart starts to become biased.

The limitations of the world forced Song Shengfu to compromise on many things, and she could not impose her self-righteous ideas on them.

Did she tell them that women can live a good life without getting married, and can support themselves independently without relying on men?

Then we instill so-called concepts in them and give them ideal ideas, but we cannot create an ideal environment for them, which will only make them more miserable.

Instead of using words as a signboard, it is better to do it down to earth.

Letting them realize these truths on their own in a good environment is much better than having others tell them a thousand things.

Song Shengfu had already thought about the future of the two little girls in the family.

If they get married, I will find them the most perfect family and give them a generous dowry so that they can live a good life regardless of whether they love each other or not.

If they don't want to get married, she will respect their wishes and provide them with solid backup so that they can live a self-sufficient life.

Their freedom is in their own hands, and they blow the kite in the direction it flies.

She is the wind that holds them, allowing them to live their lives freely.

Now the kite strings of these children are still in their hands, waiting for the day when they want to leave, and then they will break free from them and fly away.

What Song Shengfu didn't expect was that one of the kites had loosened and started to float away.

"If you want to leave, pack your things. The decision is yours. If you leave, we will follow you."
