Chapter 1677: Chapter 1677: Confirmation
Fang Qiongyu nodded, "Alright, I’ll tell my father tomorrow, I guess the other two won’t go either."
"Hmm, Xiao Yu, just for Su Wanshan not marrying for two children is worthwhile, if you treat him sincerely, he will be good to you."
"Mother, I understand."
"Heart for heart."
Fang Qiongyu returned to her own courtyard, lay on the bed, actually she was willing.
Already seventeen years old now and still haven’t found a family for herself, that sweet-faced bitter-hearted woman just doesn’t want her to be well.
Su Wanshan is older, about the same age as her father, but at least he is upright, not a sanctimonious person.
Fang Pengfei actually knew only the eldest daughter should go, she was the most suitable.
Sorry to her and her mother, now he doesn’t want to force his daughter.
In the evening, Fang Qiongyu couldn’t sleep well, it was all about uncertainty for the future, half asleep and awake, she felt sympathetic to her mother.
Men at forty are like that, marrying someone is the same.
Not caring about him is the best, otherwise it’s oneself who gets hurt.
Actually still unwilling, at the age of youth and beauty, marrying someone about the same age as father.
The next day, she woke up without energy, needing to pay respects to the stepmother. No matter how uncomfortable, still needs to go, so she always kept her head down.
The stepmother above looked at the state of the three concubines below with great delight. She couldn’t stand any being better than her own daughter.
Fang Pengfei called his three daughters after returning from court.
"Have you thought it through? If none of you are willing, I won’t force you."
Looking at the daughters all with heads down, Fang Pengfei interpreted that none agreed.
"Go back then." Such a good marriage can’t be grasped.
Yesterday knowing Su Wanshan had thoughts of going to the border, today paying special attention to the Emperor’s attitude towards him, definitely closer than others.
Fang Qiongyu stayed last.
"Go back, don’t force yourself, it’s okay."
Fang Qiongyu thought, you’re really unnecessary, who would be willing to sacrifice for you? Are you worth it?
"Father. If you are too troubled, I’ll go."
"You go?"
Fang Qiongyu knew that marrying into the Su Family had benefits for the Fang Family, what benefits unknown, but surely there are. Otherwise, father wouldn’t want to marry.
Fang Pengfei looked at his eldest daughter’s complex expression.
"If you marry over, father won’t treat you poorly."
"Father, don’t prepare too much dowry, it’s also uncarryable. Just prepare more gold and silver for me." Mother won’t communicate with father, so only she spoke.
In the morning, mother and daughter discussed this matter, will certainly get compensation, nothing is more practical than true gold and silver.
"Alright, I’ll secretly supplement you with one thousand taels of silver, one hundred taels of gold."
Fang Qiongyu said nothing, though felt not much, it’s just like that, better than none.
Let the servants notify the matchmaker, the woman changed to the eldest daughter.
Fang Pengfei alone dazed in the study, now recalling past wife’s matters.
Went until meal time, invited by his wife.
After meal, he returned alone to the study, waiting for the matchmaker’s news.
Should be possible, southern requirement just to follow to the border.
Su Wanshan knew Fang Pengfei’s situation. Also known before, the Emperor let him see all ministers’ investigation results.
Even if Fang Pengfei still felt nothing happened, actually the Emperor already denied him.
"Okay, I’ll go propose the day after tomorrow."
This is in accordance with procedure.
The matchmaker was very glad, though General Su just gave ten taels of silver, Mr. Fang would surely give more.
Indeed guessed right, Fang Pengfei gave fifty taels of silver, civil servant having more money than military officer.
On the proposal day, the matchmaker’s glib tongue spoke extravagantly.
Fang Pengfei’s wife also saw Su Wanshan, not appearing like a middle-aged man, seemed less than thirty.
Fang Qiongyu also peeked at Su Wanshan through the curtain, still fairly satisfied. Appeared with decent gaze, it’s fine.
A secondary wife certainly hasn’t higher status than the primary, but already good, now the residence has no concubines.
Both parties were willing, procedure completed very quickly, wedding date set for the tenth of March.
The two’s situation really can’t be mentioned, but many came to offer congratulations.
Precious things weren’t accepted by Su Wanshan. But after being summoned into the palace by the Emperor, whatever given was accepted.
The gift-giving gradually increased more. All knew the Emperor had met Su Wanshan. Now sending gifts with more energy.
Can say his wedding received almost one hundred thousand taels.
Su Wanshan looked at so many gifts feeling uneasy, didn’t know the Emperor’s thoughts.
Su Yuanyuan also knew the convenient father’s marriage was settled, didn’t know how it would be afterward? Really going to border?
The Empress specially because of this matter let her come over once.
The implied meaning in words was about having children in the future if affecting Su Xing.
Su Yuanyuan responded with perfunctory agreement, thinking this woman really didn’t work, what’s her business? Excess management too much. Really underestimated ancient women.
Empress looked at this fool, still young, also without mother care when young.
On this day Su Yuanyuan got the news. The maternal aunt came to pay respects.
Su Yuanyuan really wanted to say neither family interacted, is it seeing oneself as Noble Consort came over?
However it may be, still invited in. Truly unfamiliar.
Later Su Yuanyuan understood, originally brainwashed to her same as Empress spoke.
These people really eating full had too much free time, must not really know last chat contents.
Su Yuanyuan instantly understood, this was the Emperor protecting them.
Now outside all rumored Su Yuanyuan was just a fool.
She inside the palace didn’t know this news, but Su Wanshan knew. He was very angry.
Su Yuanyuan truly indifferent, saying fool just a fool then.
Su Wanshan’s marriage was advancing vigorously. Now Fang Pengfei also became a sensible person. Many also gave him gifts.
His wife at first was quite happy. But few days later informed these gifts must be taken away by that bitch became unwilling. So many things for her?
"Master, in future also need to repay favors, attend ceremonies."
"No way, I realized, Su Wanshan accepting gifts was under Emperor’s orders, if we don’t express, won’t benefit."
Most delighted was Fang Qiongyu’s mother, this good. Daughter has assurance, future can stand straight.
All the ceremonies completed, the next day was the tenth of March.
This day can say half of the Imperial City was bright and cheerful.
Su Yuanyuan already applied with Empress, to reward the family.
Empress also a sensible person, also saw the Emperor’s favor towards Su Wanshan, naturally followed with substantial reward preparation.
Su Wanshan was a remarriage, but still arranged quite formally, definitely gave the woman face.
