If Mrs. Shen were to say it herself, she certainly did not want Su Yao to marry Xiao Heng. It was certainly not because Xiao Heng was not good. On the contrary, it was because Xiao Heng was too good. He was so good that people would have to praise him as a young hero whenever his name was mentioned.
But because it is so good, it does not seem so easy to obtain.
Mrs. Shen couldn't say anything in front of her daughter. She was the one who brought up Su Yao, and she knew Su Yao's temper best. Her daughter was the type who would stick to her principles and would never turn back even if she hit a wall, let alone for someone she fell in love with for the first time.
Mrs. Shen waited until Su Yao left in the evening before she mentioned the matter to Mr. Shen with great concern.
She said softly, "I'm not saying that Yaoyao is not good enough, I just think it's too tiring. Marrying into the royal family is not that easy. No matter how smart she is, she is just a brain. If she and His Highness don't get along in the future, who will support her?"
Isn’t the ready-made example Queen Hu
Of course it was good when things were going well, and Emperor Yuanfeng also treated her as a virtuous queen, and they respected each other. But once something happened, Queen Hu was naturally at a disadvantage, after all, the world tends to support men more.
Mr. Shen also thought seriously for a while, but he had no choice but to shake his head sullenly: "It's useless to say all this. I also know it's inappropriate and too risky. But, can't you stop Yaoyao from liking it? From childhood to adulthood, there are really only a few things she likes, and she has never taken the initiative to ask for anything. Since she took the initiative to ask you, it means that she must like Your Highness very much. It's rare for her to like something so much..."
How many times in a person's life can he like something or someone so intensely
Since Su Yao likes it so much, then let it be considered as the price he pays for this love.
As for future changes, that will be a matter for the future.
Mrs. Shen was speechless after hearing what Mr. Shen said. In fact, she suddenly understood what Mr. Shen meant.
Money cannot buy my happiness. As long as Su Yao is happy, what is there to be afraid of
Seeing that she was silent, Master Shen smiled and said, "I know what you mean. You are just worried that we are not well-connected enough to support Yaoyao. But, what are you afraid of? Since the day when Yaoyao's background was exposed and she became a member of the Su family, we have not been able to help her in any way."
Although Mr. Shen was a little melancholy, he was still more relieved and proud in the end: "I know this child. If you don't let her do what she wants to do, she will feel uncomfortable. If you really want to do it for her own good, just trust her. We can't do anything else, but we can try our best to be her backing. No matter what happens, she will always have us."
Mrs. Shen was relieved.
The gift that the Shen family sent to Su Rong was very expensive. Even Mrs. Su was shocked. She personally asked about it and said, "It's too expensive. How can Rong afford it?"
Su Yao smiled and said, "It's a token of my godfather and godmother's love. Since they have given it to me, I'll see what Big Brother thinks."
Su Rong was not polite.
In his opinion, it would be impossible to separate from the Shen family in the future anyway - the Shen family meant a lot to Su Yao, and she was reluctant to give up anyone from the Shen family. In this case, it would be better to accept the things from the Shen family, so that the two families could get along like relatives in the future.
Since Su Rong said so, Old Lady Su had no objection. Instead, she instructed Su Yao: "Didn't we invite all the relatives to come over tomorrow to have some fun together? In that case, why not invite the Shen family as well so that we can have some fun together."
Su Yao smiled and nodded in agreement.
As they were talking, Li Ruijia came in in a hurry. Seeing that everyone was there, she hurriedly bowed and said anxiously, "An aunt came from the palace and said she had an oral order for the county lady."
Everyone in the house looked towards Su Yao.
Old Mrs. Su was unconsciously a little worried, but seeing that Su Yao was still calm as usual, she tried to calm down. When Su Yao went out to give instructions, she frowned and calmed down.
She knew that this was probably related to marriage.
Sure enough, Su Yao went away for a while and came back.
Su Xingyi hurriedly asked her what the instruction was.
Su Yao said softly, "The palace said that they were holding a flower banquet, and Her Highness the Eleventh Princess said that she missed me, so Her Majesty summoned me to the palace to apologize to Her Highness the Eleventh Princess."
Wang Yuerong held Su Yao's hand, and when everyone left, she comforted him softly, "Don't worry, the Eleventh Princess likes you to begin with, and since she asked you to enter the palace, it can't be a bad thing."
She and Su Yao are both friends and sisters-in-law. There are no secrets between them and they trust each other very much. For Wang Yuerong, it is natural to treat Su Yao as her own person with whom she can talk about anything.
Su Yao was also relieved, and nodded to Wang Yuerong with a smile: "Don't worry, I know everything, and besides, I'm really not worried."
Other things were fine, but she didn't want to go to great lengths to seek a marriage. Xiao Heng had said that he would take care of everything else, so she chose to wait quietly and trust Xiao Heng. Apart from trusting him, it seemed that there was nothing else she could do.
Since the only option is to trust Xiao Heng, there is no point in her being anxious.
Su Yao didn't intend to say too much, and asked Wang Yuerong: "Have all the posts been sent?"
The Su family invited only a few families this time, only the Princess Yongning's residence, the Wang family, the Shen family, the Song family, and finally the He family.
Wang Yuerong smiled and said, "Everything else has been delivered. I want to go to my house in person. My mother wrote to say that my father is ill. I am a little worried. It's a good opportunity for me to go and see for myself how he is doing."
The Wang family is a relative by marriage and has been very caring towards the Su family over the years. When they heard that Master Wang was ill, not only did Su Yao hurriedly ask if there was anything he could help with, but even Old Lady Su was alarmed and hurriedly asked Su Rong to go over and see her father-in-law.
Wang Yuerong was left in a state of confusion, "If my family knew I was making such a fuss, they would probably scold me for being too ostentatious. It's really not a big deal. When my mother sent someone over, she specifically told them it was just a minor cold and it would heal quickly. I've taken medicine."
Although she said so, Old Lady Su was still very determined to let Su Rong accompany her, and solemnly instructed him that if there was anything, he should send someone to the house as soon as possible to tell them. The Su family would never refuse to help if they could.
Wang Yuerong was so touched by her husband's family's kindness that she couldn't help but tell her mother and grandmother about it when she got home.
Hearing about the good things of the Su family, Old Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Wang were also happy.
