  Chapter 89 Congratulations (one more)

   Su Rong was taken aback for a moment, Zhou Gu went back to Beijing, she followed him into Beijing?

  She looked at Zhou Gu, isn't that okay?

  When Zhou Gu blurted out this suggestion, he was also in a rush. Seeing Su Rong froze, he also calmed down instantly, and was speechless for a while.

  He remembered that before he left Beijing, he told his grandfather that he was unwilling to marry Su Rong in every possible way, and even threw face at his grandfather, and was scolded by his grandfather. Now, in just one month, he actually invited Su Rong to come to Beijing with him.

  Seeing that he was silent after he finished speaking, Su Rong suddenly smiled, "Brother Zhou, did you just say it casually?"

  Zhou Gu looked at her, pondered for a moment, a little unnatural, "I just said it casually, but it's not impossible." He found a reason for Su Rong, "Anyway, your elder brother is going to Beijing to catch the exam, so it's not unusual for you to accompany the exam as a younger sister, isn't it?"

  Su Rongcai won't accompany Su Xing to accompany the exam. She is afraid that she will accompany the exam. Su Xing is worried that she will play around and cause trouble, and she will not be at ease in the exam. She shook her head, "I won't accompany the exam."

   "Why?" Zhou Gu didn't expect her to refuse so simply.

   "My elder brother won't rest assured that I will take the exam with him." Su Rong pointed to his forehead.

   Zhou Gu remembered that she had a scar on her forehead just before he came, and thought of her ability to make enemies everywhere and fight with others, and was speechless for a while, "That's right. If you follow to Beijing, your elder brother will probably have to **** you with more than half of his heart."

  Su Rong nodded, "So, there will be a chance in the future!"

  Zhou Gu also nodded, he knew that most of the opportunity she mentioned was that he was discussing marriage with her, and if he married her, she would go to Beijing. It may also be that Su Xingze stayed in Beijing to report on her work after high school, so she might also be able to come to Beijing.

   It will take a year at the earliest for him to marry her, but if Su Xing can stay in Beijing to report on his work after high school, it will be a little faster.

  The excitement in his heart faded, and just as he was about to say something, someone came hurriedly outside and stood at the door and asked, "Miss Seven, is Young Master Zhou here with you?"

   "Yes." Su Rong replied.

  The visitor immediately bowed his hands inside the door, "Master sent a servant to invite Young Master Zhou to go to the front."

  Su Rong looked at Zhou Gu.

  Zhou Gu put down the travel journal and stood up, "Sure enough, I can't hide, I'm going to the front, you..."

   "I read by myself." Su Rong waved to him.

  Zhou Gu nodded, turned around and left the main room, and went to the front yard with the visitors.

  After Zhou Gu left, Su Rong continued to read the picture book, thinking that he could avoid laziness, but Yue Wan quickly ran back and called her, "Miss, Da Furen asked you to go to the garden to accompany the elders to have a meal. The men's side opened the table first in the front hall, and now the women's table is about to open, waiting for you to go."

  After she finished speaking, she complained to Su Rong, "Look at you, you took off your makeup too early, right? Are you going out so clean now? Why don't you put on your makeup quickly? I'll call Mother Zhao again?"

   "Don't call Zhao Nanny." Su Rong put down her drawing book, sighed, very helpless, knowing that the eldest lady would not let her be lazy, she turned and went into the inner room, "I will do it myself."

  There was no need to change the clothes, and a new make-up was put on her face. Compared with Mammy Zhao's delicate, careful and appropriate technique, she did it herself, which was extremely simple and rough. After putting on the makeup on her face, she put the peach wood hairpin that Zhou Gu gave her on her head.

  Yuewan doesn't have a pair of dexterous hands, and Su Rong never uses her, so she hasn't learned this skill, so she can only stand aside and watch Su Rong do it himself, but it doesn't prevent her from having a pair of admiring eyes. After Su Rong cleaned it up by herself, she showed an admiring expression, "Hey, miss, you look good-looking, and you look good when you tidy up casually. Ladies who are here today, even if everyone is dressed up, I can't overwhelm you."

  Su Rong looked at herself in the mirror, and she was also very satisfied. She was attractive when she was dressed up, and she was smart and beautiful when she was dressed in simple and elegant. In short, she is a uniquely blessed beauty, the kind who can rely on her face to make a living even if she doesn't know anything.

  So, this is why she has always been very concerned about protecting her face. Even if she asks for food, she always asks for a bowl more than others.

  The two master and servant left the Dongkua courtyard and went to the garden. Sure enough, they saw that the female relatives were already sitting, and the meals were all on the table.

  As soon as Su Rong appeared, all the female relatives looked at her. Seeing that she had changed her outfit in such a short period of time, the eldest lady glared at her. It was probably because her current attire was a little different, but she was good-looking and just as good-looking, so she didn't say anything.

  The elders who came here today are all kind, none of them dislike Su Rong, so the atmosphere is very good.

  Su Rong only needs to be well-behaved in front of others, so based on her performance today, many elders praised her for growing up, sensible, stable, etc., all of which are good things.

  When the eldest lady saw that Su Rong was being praised, it was as if she was being praised, and her waist was straighter than before.

   Someone asked the eldest lady, "Is Xiaoqi's marriage completely settled? What does the Huguo Gongfu say?"

   After all, everyone has seen the situation where Zhou Gu gave Su Rong a hairpin today. Everyone sitting there at that time had sharp eyes. The hairpin that Young Master Zhou took out was not bought anywhere, it was very rough, and it looked like it was made by hand.

  The eldest lady smiled and said: "It hasn't been fully settled yet, such a big matter needs to be discussed with the old Duke in detail."

  Everyone nodded in agreement.

  The eldest lady glanced at Su Rong, changed her voice, and said with a smile: "Although the lintel of the Duke Huguo's mansion is high, our family is not the kind of family that likes to cling. Although the marriage contract has already been made, it still depends on Xiaoqi's own wishes. Her father and I are mainly based on her wishes."

   The implication is that if Xiao Qi is not happy, this marriage will not be possible, and it is not the intention of taking care of the Duke.

  An old lady sighed when she heard the words, "It's always the words of the matchmaker at the order of the parents, you and her father are too fond of the child."

  The eldest lady smiled and said: "How can I not spoil my own children?"

  Everyone sitting here is looking at the eldest lady, and no one can match the aunt's role as the eldest lady. She dotes on Su Rong, and she is really famous in Jiangning County. It's not just Su Rong, she has never treated the other concubines in the Su Mansion harshly.

   Someone asked in a low voice: "Xiao Qi is the youngest one, and she is already old enough. Is there a conclusion about the eldest brother's marriage?"

   "There is no rush if you do it."

   "Hey, I'm not talking about Xing Ze, I'm talking about your eldest daughter."

  The eldest lady shook her head, "It's not in a hurry."

   "Aren't you seventeen? How can you not be in a hurry?" The lady didn't know why the eldest lady hadn't planned to choose a relative for the concubine daughter. In general, marriage discussions started on the 13th and 4th.

  The eldest lady will naturally not talk about her own plans, and blame the prefect Su, "My master said that after the examination of the rules of conduct, we will start choosing relatives."

  As soon as the words came out, everyone understood. Su Xing has great talents. If he is in high school this year, the threshold of the Su family will have to be raised a step higher, and the marriage of the younger sisters will naturally rise accordingly.

   "What you said makes sense. You won't be afraid to stay for two more years. Naturally, you should be more cautious about the important event of your daughter's family's lifelong marriage." An old lady who is well-informed nodded repeatedly.

   All the ladies talked about the golden autumn scientific research on this topic.

   Someone asked: "When will Xingze enter Beijing?"

   "They say they plan to go with nephew Zhou Xian. After Xiaoqi and Jili are over, it won't be more than three or five days!" said the lady.

  The old lady nodded, "There are still two months for the scientific examination, and many candidates have already set off last month, so it is time to leave. Go early and get used to the climate of the capital."

  The eldest lady nodded, "Exactly."

   On this day, the entire Su Mansion was bustling until about 3:00 p.m., when everyone dispersed, the Su Mansion became quiet.

   Xie Lin drank too much, and was helped back to the courtyard by someone. Zhou Gu also drank a lot, but he was thinking about the travel book that was thrown in Su Rongtang's room, so he came to Dongkua courtyard to get it.

  The eldest lady is holding the gift book in Su Rong's room and checking the gift list with her. Wang Ma and Yue Wan are responsible for reading and copying.

  Because Su Rong was caught by Su Xingze to practice calligraphy since she was a child, Yue Wan also practiced good calligraphy as her servant did as her master did.

  The eldest lady smiled from ear to ear, and said to Su Rong: "Your Jiji gift is not bad. Jiang Sheng alone gave a big gift, five thousand taels, plus three shops, a farm in Nanshan, and fifty acres of orchard. The compensation confiscated last time was sent as a gift this time. I will accept it for you bluntly."

  Su Rong was very satisfied, and leaned lazily on the chair, "Fortunately, I received my gift before my birthday. If my gift was postponed for another two days, I might not be able to receive these things. It shows that I have good fortune."

   Two days later, when the Jiang family will be punished by the nine clans and their property will be confiscated, won’t they be able to receive it?

   "Why?" The eldest lady was puzzled, she didn't know that the Jiang family was going to be cleaned up by the prince.

  Su Rong thought it was too late to make a statement, so she smiled at the eldest lady, "You will know in a few days."
