After Mu Bei spoke out, the old concubine basically understood what he meant. However, the old concubine was not able to accept it. As a woman, she naturally knew that there was a big difference between whether a woman was affectionate or ruthless towards a man.

, if she is affectionate, then she will keep her husband in her heart and be considerate in every aspect, but if she is ruthless, she may just do superficial work.

This person's heart is inherently biased. The grandson and the grandson's daughter-in-law are naturally on the side of the grandson without a doubt. Her grandson can be ruthless, but she hopes that her grandson's daughter-in-law will be affectionate. I believe that people who have such thoughts will definitely

Not a few.

For example, this woman often has double standards when it comes to her husband and son. She hopes that her husband will be devoted to her, but she is afraid that there will be fewer people around her son to serve her, and she will not be considerate enough, and will be too busy.

What the old concubine was thinking didn't show on her face, but she couldn't help but sigh "injustice" secretly in her heart. She also had no intention of going her own way, and decided to follow Mu Bei's idea.

In this important matter of marriage, parents ordered a matchmaker, and this girl in purgatory has not come into contact with many foreign men. There may be some who are in love, but not many who have deep-rooted love. Most of them are just vague feelings.

Therefore, 99% of the time, her heart will be left to her husband in the end, so there is nothing to worry about. The final result will most likely be what she wants.

Due to some considerations, the old concubine finally chose the person whose family background was not outstanding, and of course not bad. The girl herself had good character. Her father was the Shaoqing of Taipusi Temple, a fourth-rank official, and there was another

My uncle was not appointed as Chief Secretary and participated in politics in the local area.

The decree of Taipusi in charge of herding horses was subordinate to the Ministry of War, which can be regarded as linked to Mu Bei, who was a military general.

Because of Mu Bei's request, their family letters have some ambitions, but seriously speaking, they are not the kind of people who are obsessed with interests. There are many people who pay attention to interests in marriage.

However, because two new orders have just been issued and will be officially implemented soon, and the girls’ families usually discuss marriage before and after they reach the age of hair, so they are almost fourteen or fifteen years old, and the old lady deliberately chose the older ones.

A little bit, even so, you still have to wait a year to get married.

——Although it is not true that there are no girls close to sixteen, it’s just that most of these girls broke off their engagements because of the new order, and they had more or less messy relationships. The old concubine simply chose one who had never been engaged.

She is really looking forward to her great-grandson, but she is not so anxious that she wants to get married right away and wishes she could get pregnant right before the wedding. If that were the case, it would be too ugly.

The Dingnei County Prince appointed a person, and Mu Bei did everything he had to do, at least in terms of etiquette, without making any mistakes.

However, because the woman's background is indeed not high compared to Mu Bei's, many people feel that she is just unlucky, and they are envious and jealous. However, the decision is made, what can be done? There are still ways to make this happen.

A marriage is ruined, and then you replace it? This kind of thing, just think about it, who really can't take action?

After Xu Tongdan knew the result, she felt very sad for a while, but she also knew that things could not be forced, and she could not do anything to cause trouble for others. As the saying goes, if you fail on one side, you must make up for it elsewhere, so Xu Tongdan also ran to the small

Cao Nali said that he also wanted to study medicine.

——Don’t ask if her family would agree. Would her father disagree with being able to get closer to Princess An Guo? Her mother is now effectively imprisoned, and her sister-in-law obviously has the power to feed her.

In fact, it didn't go well. There were too many people fighting for power in the family, and some had to be divided up so that some things could be completed. In this case, who would care about her? The previous things were not so much for her, but for the Xu Guogong Mansion.

After all, she never told her family about her crush on Mu Bei.

Now that she can no longer reach the Dingnei County Prince's Mansion, naturally no one cares about her.

However, if Xu Tongdan knew that he originally had great hopes but was rejected by Mu Bei because of Xiaocao, I don’t know what he would think.

It was originally a group of people, but now there is just one more person, so we can just go on our way.

Things are progressing in an orderly manner. It's June. The temperature was still acceptable. Everyone thought that summer started late this year. However, it suddenly soared in the past few days, making people unbearable. Even if they sit in the shade, they can't stop.

I was sweating all the time, let alone if something happened, I would have wanted to take off all my clothes.

Fortunately, because of Concubine Kou, the technology of artificial ice making was discovered, and this wealthy family had no shortage of ice in summer.

Even so, Xiaocao still asked people to prepare short-sleeved shorts. When not going out, she could do whatever she felt comfortable with. It was not in line with the rules and inappropriate, so Han let her go. She just told the people below to watch the courtyard door more closely.

, after all, Xiaocao is a relatively special place, and you never know when someone will come.

Throughout the year, the Ninth Five Supreme Beings always have some bright eyes to reward them. This is almost the time to test whether Jian is in the emperor's heart.

Xiaocao, needless to say, must be indispensable for her.
