Chapter 278 Miss, please don’t agree.
A well-dressed, slightly plump woman walked in.
Facing the smiling Tang Wensu, the woman was very arrogant. She looked serious and said in a serious tone:
"Miss, our lady wants to see you."
Tang Wensu smiled without changing her expression: "Thank you for making this trip, Mom. Wensu will be there soon."
The woman said "hmm" and turned away.
Tang Wensu's personal maid Rongyue said worriedly:
"Miss, the eldest lady may want to bring up the old matter again, so please don't agree."
Tang Wensu nodded: "I know what's going on."
Tang Wensu brought Rongyue to the room of Shi, the head lady of the Bo Mansion:
"Wen Su meets the great aunt."
Shi looked at the beautiful and dignified Tang Wensu and sighed in her heart, no wonder Prince An liked her so much, with such looks and demeanor, she was qualified enough to accompany the emperor into the palace.
Shi smiled kindly:
"Good boy, sit down quickly, let's chat casually."
Tang Wensu slowly sat down, and Shi didn't beat around the bush and said directly:
"Wen Su, what do you think about what I told you last time?"
Tang Wensu said solemnly:
“Aunt, Wen Su feels that some things are better done slowly.
If we are too radical and cause the Prince An's Mansion to be disgusted and reject the marriage proposal, then wouldn't it be more harm than good?"
Shi pondered for a moment and said with a smile:
"I do this not only for the sake of the Bo Mansion, but also for your sake.
If your brother has a promising future, your third branch will have made it through, and you will have someone to back you up, so your life in the palace will be easier."
"My brother is not good at studying. I'm afraid he will disappoint my aunt."
Shi felt that for her generation of men in the Bo's Mansion, being able to become a fifth-rank official was already the limit, but there were a few men in the next generation who were good at studying.
Therefore, she wanted Tang Wensu to promise that after she got married, she would ask Yi Jingxiao to send several young people in the Bo's Mansion who were capable of studying to study in the Imperial College. If one of them could rise to prominence, there would be hope for the revitalization of the Bo's Mansion.
Among the younger generations that Shi wanted to send to the Imperial College was Tang Wensu’s younger brother.
Tang Wensu's younger brother has average qualifications and is not good at studying.
"Wen Su, if your brother enters the Imperial College, maybe he will study hard and get his name on the list of successful candidates."
how is this possible.
As far as Tang Wensu knew, the few people that Shi referred to as "good at studying" were just able to sit on a bench and study seriously.
As for qualifications, they are not very outstanding.
Shi really put a lot of effort into the prosperity of the Bo Mansion.
She hoped that there would be a few pillars of the family, but unfortunately, they were all dead wood.
"Aunt, I still feel that this matter is inappropriate. Please think about it again."
"Okay, let's talk about this later. Wen Su, you're going to marry into Prince An's mansion, so you need someone to support you.
I plan to send Wen Qing and Wen Shu to the palace to help you.
They sisters are from our eldest family, I just let them go and explore the way first.
If Prince An has no objection, send your concubine sister in. You sisters can share a husband, and you can gain a firm foothold in the palace."
Tang Wensu was shocked. She didn't know that Shi had such a plan, and Yi Jingxiao had never mentioned it to her.
She secretly hated that Shi really had a good plan.
She refused to send anyone to the Imperial College, and Shi wanted to send three concubines' daughters to the palace.
Whether it is the first wife or the third wife, it can be said that they are all close to Shi.
No woman would agree to get married when there are other women coming in to compete for favor, even if they are sisters.
In fact, Shi didn't really want to send three concubines' daughters in. She was just testing Tang Wensu's bottom line.
I want to send someone to the Imperial College, but you don't agree.
I want to send three concubines to the palace. If you still don't agree, then I will send two. If that doesn't work, I will just send one.
If she could get one of them in, her goal of monitoring and manipulating Tang Wensu would be achieved.
Tang Wensu refused once, twice, and if he refused three times, it would be embarrassing for Shi.
If Shi is unhappy, life will definitely be difficult for the third branch of their family, especially Tang Wensu's mother.
Tang Wensu smiled: "Thank you, aunt, for making this plan for me. I have no objection."
Not to mention three, even if you want to give me thirty, I have no objection.
I agree, can you send it in?
joke!
