The Imperial Concubine Chef

However, Su Wenlan really could not let this matter go so easily. After all, this was her daughter's life. How could she not be frightened when an ordinary village woman suddenly let her know that the man who had always been on good terms with her daughter and also that they were in love was the current prince of the dynasty, the empress dowager's own son?

In the end, Madam Liu still knew about this matter. But Madam Liu's attitude was far less anxious and worried than Su Wenlan's. However, she still asked Su Xinyu: "Xinyu, are you really certain that other than the Young Master Wen, you won't marry anyone else?" Even though he knew that the so-called Young Master Wen was the current Prince Ling, and he did not have the surname Wen either. But Madam Liu was still used to calling him that. She could not connect him with the Prince at the moment.

Su Xinyu sighed: "Grandma, I can only tell you that before I get his answer, I won't consider anyone else. It is impossible to say that I would not marry anyone other than him, because aside from him, I have never thought of marrying anyone else. "

"…" That's the same thing. Madam Liu could not help but frown. Your choice is something that Grandma wouldn't interfere with, but since you've already decided to leave before walking forward, is that alright for Wen Ling? "

Su Xinyu was startled. She hadn't really thought about it before. It was probably because he could be considered to be independent in his previous life and could decide on many matters on her own. Therefore, she did not share any of her emotional issues with her family. Besides, she hadn't been in love in her previous life. Furthermore, with her previous life's experiences after being reborn, she instinctively protected herself. This kind of protection applied to her feelings as well.

In this world, however, women were at a disadvantage in terms of marriage and emotions. But Shangguan Lin had never made her feel that it was unfair. He truly respected himself and made himself more confident. To put it bluntly, for him to have such a large restaurant, processing factory, and a few properties to collect rent, to be able to live in such a large courtyard, to be able to honor his mother and grandmother, and to have his servants call on him, he definitely couldn't do without his hard work and the golden fingers he brought with him in his previous life. But most of all, it was the opportunity Shangguan Lin had given him and the protection he had always given him.

Then what right did he have to rely on others, like them, and not give them any confidence while he himself did not work hard?

Grandma's words made Su Xinyu ponder deeply. "This caused her to have a different thought." Grandmother. Am I... Very bad? "

Madam Liu shook her head. You just made the choice that seemed best for you. But little girl, have you ever thought about using the fact that even if he doesn't give you a satisfactory answer in the future, you can use the excuse that I've gotten the answer as an excuse to prepare. Humans don't feel anything just because they're prepared. On the contrary, would you regret standing there and watch him fight without doing anything? "

Su Xinyu lowered her head, her eyes a little red. Grandmother. You said... I can really try to fight for it, can't I? "

Madam Liu took his granddaughter's hand and patted the back of her hand, "Silly child. Love is your own, like or not like is your own. Apart from you, no one else is more qualified to fight for it. My good grandson is no worse than a man. Competent, smart, beautiful, kind, responsible. Even if he's a royal or a noble, it's the same. There's no difference between you and him. Since he said that the Emperor had already promised him, with only one empress dowager, how could you know that you couldn't win against her likes? Even if you don't like you, as long as you make Wen Ling forever like you, what need do you have to force him? In the end, life was still for the husband and wife pair. Being a woman and having a husband's heart were actually more important than being loved by a parents-in-law. Do you think your mother wouldn't understand? Look at me again. Even if my parents-in-law doesn't like me that much, your seventh grandfather treats me well, and they can't do anything to me. As long as I don't do anything out of line, no matter how much they torment me, the fault lies with me. Your Seventh Grandpa will only feel even more heartache. "

Sounds like... "It really makes sense." But, isn't this the same as provoking a relationship between mother and son? "

The Madam Liu laughed, "Foolish child. Weren't mother-in-law's many criticisms of daughter-in-law about the relationship between husband and wife provoking that of son and daughter-in-law? As a daughter-in-law, it was only right to filial piety and filial piety. However, he had to learn to make his husband cherish him even more. Don't tell me that Grandmother has never left our village, but she knows quite a lot of things. Not to mention the palace, even the backyards of those large houses had a lot of shady matters. Since you have a relationship with such a person, you should learn how to deal with it early on. We can't always think of other people to adapt to us, so how can there be so many good things in the world? "

Although her words were heart-piercing, Su Xinyu knew that her grandmother was simply saying "good" to him. I understand what you're saying. Although … Never thought of it that way. However, the matter between two people couldn't be resolved by just one person. Furthermore, how can a person whom I have set my eyes on let go so easily? There has to be something that I have to do so that I won't fail. "

Madam Liu nodded: "I knew you were the smartest. As for your mother, I will go and persuade her. Although we will not force them, we cannot just let them do as they wish. "

Su Xinyu straightened her back, "Un! The first thing I have to do is to make the restaurant bigger and open branches all over the country in the future. Earned a lot of silver. No matter what the Emperor said, he needed silver. I know that the Ling Ge itself is collecting silver for the Emperor. If I had a lot of money, even the Emperor wouldn't dare to look down on me! And I can give them a lot of useful ideas, and I believe that there is no one in the world who can help him more than I can! When everyone was convinced that I was the best fit for him, he was sure of it. I believe that even if Her Majesty was not satisfied with my birth, she would not do anything to arouse the public's wrath. That's what you mean, right? "

Although this was not what Madam Liu meant originally, the conclusion was indeed pretty much the same. Madam Liu thought so too. This girl had never seen a loving couple before, nor did she have any tender feelings towards them. Ever since he was young, he had always strived for his own survival. He had to do everything by himself, and that just meant he saw his own strength and ability as his greatest asset. The gentleness and benevolence of a woman, making her husband unable to bear with her. These were things the little girl had never come into contact with before, and she truly could not think of such things. My good grandson is the smartest, you know. "

After thinking it through, Su Xinyu's previous mood changed. Even though she didn't look that different before, she was the only one who knew. Ever since she knew that Wen Ling was the Prince Ling, the depression in her heart and her instinctive resistance towards the future couldn't be ignored.

Shangguan Lin visited the Su residence in the afternoon of the next day. I paid respects to Madam Liu as a junior. The Madam Liu did not treat him like a prince and accepted his bow. Young Master Wen, you don't blame this old one for calling you that, right? "

Shangguan Lin hurriedly replied, "At this moment, I am Wen Ling's identity. Moreover, you are Xinyu's grandmother, her savior. Naturally, any form of address was fine. I should be sorry if you and your aunt had parted from me. "

The Madam Liu laughed: "When I first met you, you were only a small boy. But now, he was a man that could support both heaven and earth. "Looks like the military is indeed a place for people to grow up."

Although Madam Liu was a village woman, Shangguan Lin knew that this village woman's knowledge was no less than the wives of noble families. Furthermore, she truly loved her dead husband and was not a woman who was restrained by etiquette. Therefore, he admired and respected them even more. A girl could live a good life by relying on her own conviction, and she could even save someone who had suffered. Just by her character and moral character alone, it was unlikely that even men would have her. It was only natural that they would be able to bring up an independent, strong and capable child like Su Xinyu. Yeah. She had learned a lot in the military, and she had seen a lot as well. There were both good and bad ones, but she had to make herself more clear. It's better than not paying attention in the depths of the compound, not knowing about the matters of the world, and not knowing about the hardships of the people, how can you be able to do what you have to do? "

Madam Liu nodded: "This old one is not seeing things wrong, we, Xinyu, are not seeing things wrong either."

Shangguan Lin was startled and turned to look at Su Xinyu. Su Xinyu laughed, "What? Do you still think I have to hide these things from my mother and grandmother? You have to know, the three of us have no secrets. Furthermore, if you and the others do not like you, I will not agree to it. "

Shangguan Lin became nervous all of a sudden. "Although I wasn't completely at a loss as to what to do, my expression did reveal it all." I... I'll be good to you. "

Seeing that Shangguan Lin was suddenly a little foolish, Su Xinyu laughed: "Why did you speak so frankly before, now you are so foolish."

Su Wenlan could not take it anymore. Even though there were only the four of them in the room, not even a servant was left behind. But in her heart, regardless of whether or not her daughter and Shangguan Lin could be together in the future, a woman shouldn't speak to her lover this way. "I don't like it." Xinyu, don't be rude. "

Su Xinyu said in a heartless manner, "Mother. I'll tell you the truth. "

Shangguan Lin hurriedly nodded with a smile. Xinyu was right. I'm a little silly now. Aunt, Grandma. I will truly treat Xinyu well. I will definitely agree to her request. But I need some time to fulfill Xinyu's request. I hope you can trust me too! "

Madam Liu asked: "Then what if your mother really doesn't like girls?"

Shangguan Lin said firmly: "She will agree."

Su Wenlan frowned, "But our family background …"

Shangguan Lin said: "Aunt, your family background is pure, and Xinyu is kind and capable. There was nothing to be picky about. Although I am a prince, I cannot be relied on by the Yue Clan. Although I am my mother's biological son, I am not the person my mother loves the most. Royal Brother and his mother were both the widow of his sister and the support of his family. As long as I don't threaten Royal Brother, she won't make things too difficult for me. Furthermore, Xinyu is such a good person, I believe that my mother will also like her in the future. "

After hearing Shangguan Lin say that, Su Xinyu immediately asked, "Then just in case your mother doesn't like me, you will make things difficult for me. What are you going to do when I'm not wrong? "

Shangguan Lin didn't even think before replying, "It doesn't matter if you did the wrong thing. I'll always be on your side."
