Chapter 279 Will You Listen to My Opinions?
Shi was totally unexpected for Tang Wensu's answer. Shi was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Just think about it, which woman would agree to bring several women to serve her man when she gets married?
This damn girl, why doesn't she play by the rules?
"Wen Su, you have to think it over carefully. I'm not kidding you."
"I know, auntie, you have your reasons for doing things. Besides, will you stop if I don't agree?
You won't stop, will you? So what does it matter whether I agree or not? "
A cold light flashed in Shi's eyes.
This damn girl sees through many things. Shi feels that she has no way to hide in front of Tang Wensu, and it seems that all her ideas can be seen through by Tang Wensu.
She didn't like this feeling.
Having said that, Shih decided to get straight to the point and not beat around the bush:
"Wen Su, you are well aware of the situation in our house. We have long been stretched to the limit and unable to make ends meet.
In order to maintain the dignity of our mansion and to make everyone's life better, we will accept your betrothal gift.
Of course, the mansion will prepare a dowry for you.
Don't have too high expectations about the dowry. It's not that your aunt doesn't care, it's just that our family is too poor.
Besides, you are marrying the son of Prince An. With your means and abilities, I believe your future life will not be too difficult."
Tang Wensu sneered in his heart, how dare you ask for a betrothal gift of 500,000 taels?
Even if the emperor were marrying off his daughter, he would only ask for a dowry of two or three hundred thousand at most.
The Yongning Earl's Mansion is the first in Tianhe to ask for 500,000.
You asked for a sky-high betrothal gift, but you didn't even bring me one ounce of it, yet you said that my life wouldn't be too difficult. Humph!
Tang Wensu answered calmly:
"It's up to my aunt to decide. I have no objection."
Will you listen to my opinions? So why should I waste my breath? Why not save some energy?
Shi always felt that Tang Wensu was too well-behaved today, and she suspected that Tang Wensu was planning something bad.
This damn girl is so righteous. In order to prevent any further complications, if Prince An's Mansion agrees to his conditions, he should marry this damn girl off as soon as possible to avoid having to worry.
Shih put on a motherly smile again:
"You are a good child, and your aunt will do her best to satisfy you.
Even though you are married, you are still a daughter of our Bofu. If anything happens, the Bofu will stand up for you, don't worry."
"Ah."
I don’t worry at all!
"Wen Su, I have a piece of red satin here, you can take it back to make your wedding dress.
The wedding date may be a bit rushed, so you can decide for yourself."
"Yes, thank you, aunt."
Soon, Tang Wensu left Shi's yard, followed by her personal maid holding a piece of red satin.
Inside the room, Mother Hu stepped forward and said:
"Madam, I always feel that Miss Wen Su is too cooperative. Will she be dissatisfied with your arrangement and secretly think of a solution? Madam, you better be careful."
Shi smiled and said, "Of course she is dissatisfied, but as for what to do, what can a young lady who never leaves her boudoir come up with?
I am just afraid that she will be too favored if she marries him. If Prince An is determined to stand up for her, it may be detrimental to our Earl's Mansion."
Mother Hu nodded: "What is Madam's plan? Is she really going to send three concubines to the palace to compete for favor?"
"I was just saying that you want to send some girls to the palace. If the palace agrees, then let's do it.
You go to the third sister later and warn Ping, asking her to persuade her good daughter.
If that damn girl dares not listen to me and obey my arrangements, their third room will not have a good life. I promise to make their life worse than before."
Shi looked at Mother Hu, who was looking at her with her head down and a troubled expression on her face, and asked angrily:
"What's that expression on your face? Why, do you think what I did is wrong?"
"No, madam. I have already threatened the Third Madam. It's just... it's just..."
"Just what, say it!"
"The Third Madam didn't seem to care. She said that her daughter was not a submissive child and she could do nothing about it. The Madam could do whatever she wanted."
Shi was so angry that he slammed the table:
"It seems that my suppression of the Third House was not harsh enough. Do they really think I won't do anything to them?
Or do they think that having a son-in-law who is a prince will give them something to rely on?"
When Mother Hu saw that Shi was very angry, she hurriedly advised:
"Madam, it's not worth it to get angry over these little things. How much ability can a maid have? Even if she is obedient, I'm afraid the role she can play is limited.
Madam, you might as well think about how to get more benefits from Prince An's Mansion."
"good."
Xiu Luoran overheard this, quietly left and went to Tang Wensu's yard.
