Chapter 1695: Afraid of death, marrying

The next day.

When Mr. Weng returned home, he could not hide his anger and inevitably began to complain:

"Madam, your niece-in-law is too petty. He won't even let me have a laurel tree. We should stop associating with each other in the future!"

"Master, don't be angry. Perhaps those laurel trees are of great significance to Master Su, and he can't bear to part with them!"

Mrs. Weng tried to persuade him, but when she saw that the man was still angry, she frowned and started to laugh:
"In fact, if the master really wants the laurel tree, there is a way. It depends on whether the master is willing to exchange it for a treasure of equal value!"

"Baby of equal value?"

Mr. Weng asked in confusion:
"Madam, what treasure of equal value do we have in our house?"

"It's your two precious daughters!"

Mrs. Weng did not hide anything and said frankly:
"You may not have noticed that Master Su kept looking at your two precious daughters at the banquet. I guess the young man Mu Ai had some feelings for you. If you are willing to be his father-in-law, a few laurel trees can be easily exchanged for them!"

After hearing this, Mr. Weng shook his head repeatedly:

"He already has a wife at home, and your nieces are concubines. If Changting and Hongting marry him, they can only be wives at best. It's not right, not right!"

Even if he doesn't consider his daughter, he still has to save face.

After all, the Weng family has always been a scholarly family that has passed down poetry and literature. If they let their two legitimate daughters become concubines, they would definitely be laughed at.

"Master, there is something I didn't dare to tell you before!"

Seeing that her husband would not listen to her advice, Mrs. Weng decided to use her ultimate move:

"Master, you should know that my three nieces are all fox fairies. Aren't you curious why my three fox fairy nieces are willing to be concubines of Master Su?"

"why?"

Mr. Weng was naturally very curious, and it could even be said that he had been curious for a long time.

However, because it involved the reputation of his wife's family, he didn't feel comfortable asking.

Mrs. Weng said bluntly:
"That's because Mr. Su is not a simple person. My three nieces told me that Mr. Su has already become an immortal and is just playing around in the mortal world! Once he ascends to heaven, he will surely ascend to heaven with his whole family. Even if our daughter becomes his concubine, she will be a concubine of an immortal. By then, your father-in-law will have an immortal son-in-law."

……

Become an immortal and achieve immortality.

This is the obsession of so many people!
Mencius also said: "If people want nothing more than life, then why not use everything that can help them live?"

Judging from the meaning of this sentence, it is necessary and desirable for a person to use some immoral means in order to survive.

Is it immoral to find a good husband for your daughter?

It definitely won’t violate that!

……

Mr. Weng quickly completed his psychological construction and ordered his wife to call his two daughters to his side.

Because it is already late autumn, the weather in Bianzhou is getting cold quickly.

The naturally beautiful Weng Changting wore a snow-white thin jacket, but her graceful figure was still visible.

When I arrived at my parents' room, I saw my sister had already arrived. I quickly bowed to her and then asked:
"Dad, do you have something to ask me?"

"It's something."

Mr. Weng looked at his eldest daughter and for a moment, he didn't know how to start talking.

You know, less than three months after his first wife passed away, he remarried.

Although the eldest daughter had been provided with food, clothing and other necessities over the years, her care and concern were definitely not enough.

Now, he has to rely on his daughter to fight for the chance of immortality, and he can't help feeling guilty.

Seeing that her husband didn't speak, Mrs. Weng was afraid that the plan might change, so she quickly said:

"Changting, it's like this. Your father and I saw that you and your sister had grown up, so we wanted to arrange a marriage for you. After all, men should get married when they are old enough, and women should get married when they are old enough. As your parents, we can't let you stay with us two old people for the rest of your life."

Weng Hongting knew what his mother was going to say, so he spoke first and said:

"Mom, since ancient times, marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers! Parents have the final say on their daughter's marriage. My sister and I definitely have no objection!"

Weng Changting was interrupted, but he could only nod to show that he would obey his parents' decision.

After hearing this, Mr. Weng heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Don't worry, your father and your mother will definitely find a good son-in-law for you."

……

This evening.

Su Mingzhe came to Bai Susu's place to rest and heard Mrs. Weng's message, saying that she had persuaded Mr. Weng to let him ask Weng Changting to marry her. He was surprised:

"Your aunt is very efficient. She's only been home for two days and she's already done it?"

"They are from a family of scholars, and they believe in the Three Obediences and Four Virtues. Mr. Weng and my aunt have both spoken for it, so Miss Changting will definitely not object!"

Bai Suzhen felt a little upset when she thought about having two more women around her man.

Su Mingzhe heard the jealousy in the woman's mouth and quickly hugged her in his arms to comfort her:
"Susu, don't worry, I will always remember the kindness you sisters have shown me, and I will never forget the old ones when I have a new one!"

"We naturally believe in our husband, but when will we do what our husband promised our aunt?"

Bai Huahua has had a good relationship with her aunt since childhood, and now she is helping her aunt to ask for benefits.

"Don't worry, I'm a man of my words. I'll catch that playboy tomorrow and fry him in oil!"

As he said this, Su Mingzhe was afraid that the woman would not believe him, so he quickly demonstrated it with practical actions.

Suddenly, the bedroom was filled with the warmth of spring and blooming flowers.

……

the next day.

Su Mingzhe really rushed to the Weng Mansion, captured the playboy, and ate him alive.

Because he didn't want to alarm the Weng family, Su Mingzhe remained hidden while doing all this.

Except for the little fox fairy Weng Hongting who had a keen sense of smell, no one else in the Weng mansion, including Mrs. Weng, noticed anything.

Turn around.

Su Mingzhe asked a prestigious local squire to act as a matchmaker and went to the Weng family to propose marriage.

Because Weng Changting married into the Su family, she became a lady-in-waiting (Lady Ru), in other words, a concubine, so there were fewer etiquettes.

Rao is so.

Due to some specific conditions, it also took Su Mingzhe a month.

For example, when Su Mingzhe went to the government to report for registration, the chief clerk saw that Su Mingzhe was a provincial resident and asked him to change his household registration.

It was also made clear that according to the regulations, if a man wanted to marry a lady of the same level (such as Madam), he had to be at least 40 years old and could not have children.

When Su Mingzhe settled in Mojia Town more than ten years ago, he reported his age as 25. Now that he calculated it, he was old enough.

And indeed there were no children.

Therefore, he is qualified to take a concubine.

However, there are many complications in changing one's household registration to an ordinary household registration.

In order to avoid trouble, Su Mingzhe directly used money to pave the way.

After spending nearly five thousand taels of silver, the chief clerk finally relented and registered Su Mingzhe in a new household registration.

Apart from spending some time on handling affairs at the government office, everything else went smoothly.

……

A month later.

Su Mingzhe went to the Weng Mansion and married the Weng sisters.

"Sister, are you nervous? I don't know why, but my heart keeps beating wildly..."

Weng Hongting and her sister were sitting in a sedan chair, and she kept chattering, which made Weng Changting very annoyed.

Although Weng Changting was dissatisfied with marrying as a concubine, he did not strongly oppose it.

After all, under the premise that she has no lover, she is still willing to abide by the 'parents' orders and matchmaker's words'.

However, being willing to get married doesn’t mean she has no emotions.
