My husband is sour every day

Chapter 1161 Prime Minister

Everyone said something to each other.

At this time, Mrs. Xu saw Tu Chenyu sitting in front of her.

Although his son had married in these years, because the engagement with the Tu family was cancelled at that time, his son Xu Bolin finally married the second daughter of a third-rank minister as his wife.

People of the same class are simply unwilling to marry into their own family.

It was only after Chu Yan lost her child that the marriage was arranged.

If the illegitimate son is born first, he may not be able to marry the wife of a third-rank official.

She also hated Chu Yan in her heart, but she hated Tu Chenyu even more for disregarding the overall situation.

It’s all Tu Chenyu’s fault. If she wasn’t so narrow-minded, how could her son marry the daughter of such a small family?

Isn't this nothing?

His son is now a small commander in Wuchengsi.

But she was actually in the Education Department. Before, they looked down on what the Education Department was.

Now I understand that the Education Department manages the appointment of all students and teachers in Dajin.

This power is extremely great!

I heard that the salaries of the Imperial Department and the Education Department are no less than those of other officials.

even more.

The salaries of the heads of the Imperial Department and the Education Department are comparable to the income of a first-rank minister.

There is also additional income.

Thinking of this, I feel depressed.

Why would a woman go to a man's place instead of marrying and having children?

It's obvious that she doesn't observe the virtues of a woman.

Looking at Tu Chenyu, he slowly said, "Today's Qionglin Banquet for the top three is held. There are many young and talented people. I think Miss Tu is not young anymore. It's a good opportunity for Miss Tu to see a few of them. After so many years of selection, don't be so picky!"

Tu Chenyu didn't expect that everyone was chatting happily and suddenly talked about himself.

Suddenly everyone turned their eyes to him.

After all, since Tu Chenyu went to work in the Education Department two years ago, many aristocratic families in the capital have sent messages to the eldest brother.

He was interested in getting married, but he already had someone in his heart, so he refused.

After all, they had previously felt that she, a girl who had broken off an engagement, had a bad reputation.

It was only after she entered the Education Department that he thought about getting married. To put it bluntly, the nobles were all about marriage arrangements, not love.

Although the ones who got married were all legitimate sons, most of them were the second legitimate sons.

The official position of the eldest son is not very high.

She is not the man of the family.

No need to bear the family honor.

She hopes to find someone she loves to spend her life with. If not, she might as well be single.

After all, she has had a smooth life in the Education Department over the years.

There is no need to compare food and clothing with those short-sighted young ladies from aristocratic families.

What she cares more about is how many children still have no education to go to.

How to encourage people to open their minds and send girls to academies.

Over the years, although the college has been open, most of the students sent there are boys, and there are very few girls.

She looks forward to love, but career is also important.

When Shen Xia heard this, the tea in her hand paused slightly, and then acted as if nothing had happened.

He glanced at Tu Chenyu and continued to take a sip.

Tu Chenyu looked at Madam Xu: "Madam Xu has been too idle recently and has started to act as a matchmaker."

Mrs. Xu didn't expect that this little girl Tu Chenyu would be so rude in her speech.

At this time, Madam Liu beside her also said slowly: "Miss Tu, no matter what, Madam Xu is your elder. How can you be so rude to your elders?"

Tu Chenyu said calmly: "I have elders in my family, and I don't need others to pretend to be me." Then he looked at Madam Liu and said: "If you want others to respect you, you must respect others first. I wonder if Madam Liu thinks this makes sense."

Madam Liu swallowed her words and said, "Madam Xu wasn't disrespectful! If it weren't for some strange coincidence, Madam Xu would still be your mother-in-law. How could Miss Tu not appreciate her concern?"

Tu Chenyu smiled: "It wasn't a coincidence back then. Do you want me to tell you all about what happened from beginning to end?"

Mrs. Xu heard this and said, "It's all a misunderstanding. It's over now. Xiaoyu! You can't be so petty."

No wonder she hasn’t been able to get married for so many years.

"Besides, I was thinking that your parents are not in the capital, and no one cares about your marriage. Today is a good opportunity to help you arrange it."

Tu Chenyu was about to say.

Then, Madam Liu looked at Madam Su and said, "It seems that Miss Tu has high standards for the children of other noble families. I heard that Miss Tu likes the eldest son of the Su family."

Mrs. Su was stunned.

You two old hags are bullying a little girl and discussing her marriage in front of her. Have you lost your shame?

You are so unreasonable and yet you expect others to be reasonable.

He actually pulled her down, how could he have the nerve to do that!

It’s none of your business whether they get married or not.

Mrs. Su looked at Tu Chenyu. She heard that this girl had worked very hard to get into the Education Department.

She and Yan'er were roommates, and over the years, she had really worried a lot about Yan'er's marriage.

ask him?

Say nothing?

He also didn't say whether he had a girl he liked.

Besides, this Miss Tu San is very good in terms of family background and personal abilities.

She actually appreciated it.

No matter how eloquent Tu Chenyu was, she saw Madam Su looking at her.

I was also a little panicked.

Will Mrs. Su care about her past and dislike herself?

Just when Tu Chenyu was daydreaming.

Madam Su smiled slightly: "Really? Our Yan'er family is so lucky. Miss Tu is beautiful and intelligent. If she could marry into our Su family, I would be very happy."

Madam Xu and Madam Liu were stunned. They had never expected Madam Su to say this.

Madam Liu smiled and said, "Madam Su is so generous! She doesn't even mind others breaking off an engagement."

Madam Su smiled and replied, "The one who should mind is the one whose engagement was broken off."

These words could be said to be a slap in the face of Mrs. Xu.

Mrs. Su was too lazy to beat around the bush with them.

Tu Chenyu looked at Madam Su with gratitude.

Mrs. Su actually spoke up for her in such an embarrassing situation.

Mrs. Su's character.

This made Tu Chenyu even more determined to pursue Su Yan to death.

Mrs. Xu looked unhappy and was about to say something.

As a result, Shen Xia coughed twice: "Cough cough cough..."

Ruyi handed the teacup over again.

Shen Xia took a sip and put it down.

Seeing everyone looking at him.

Then he slowly said: "I suggest that girls should read more and understand the affairs of the world. It seems to make sense."

"If you read more, you can serve the country like Miss Tu. You won't have any extra time to worry about other people's private affairs, and you can spend all your energy on making people's lives better."

What Shen Xia said was really heartbreaking.

Although she also gossips, she takes advantage of her seniority to bully others.

But she can't come.

When everyone heard this, they understood His Majesty's meaning very clearly.

He has his eyes on Miss Tu.

I heard that the Tu family and Your Majesty are related by marriage.

The second wife of the Tu family is the cousin of the Song family.

The second lady and Miss Tu, one in the Imperial Department and the other in the Education Department, were the first two women to take up these positions.

The key point is that the second wife works as an accountant in the Imperial Court. I heard that this accountant is in charge of all the accounts of the Imperial Court.

Comparable to the Minister of Revenue!

Whenever the Ministry of Revenue didn't have enough money, it had to go through her.

Although he has no official position, he has great power!
