The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 771 The best friend of the reborn daughter of the Duke's Mansion (42)

No matter what the situation in the Third Prince’s Mansion is, Zhou Tianyu is very worried at the moment.

He thought that after the book donation, the Su family would probably change their opinion of him, and at least they would not be too opposed to him getting close to Su Xiangran.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Su didn't say anything, and the two adults of the Su family began to be on guard against him.

Before, Zhou Tianyu basically did not attend court, but in order to gain favor with Minister Su, he would report for court during this period.

When leaving court, they would still talk to each other.

In fact, if it was any other third-rank official, Minister Su would be able to have a chat with him, but facing Zhou Tianyu, who was only interested in his daughter, he really didn't want to give him any good face.

It’s not that this guy is not good, the key is that Zhou Tianyu is unlucky in marriage.

The key point is that every time at this time, his neighbor, Yin Chengye, the Duke of Xing, would come out and say something sarcastic: "Master Su, why are you doing this! Master Zhou is actually quite good. Those little rumors should be stopped by wise men."

"Mr. Zhou, for such a great contribution, you can just fill in your name on the imperial edict of marriage. Why bother with all this trouble?" Yin Chengye turned around and "gave advice" to Zhou Tianyu.

Minister Su did not want this day to come, but what Yin Chengye said was true, so he stared at Zhou Tianyu warily.

The first few times, Zhou Tianyu was concerned about his image in front of his "future father-in-law" and didn't say anything, but just evaded the question with a few words.

But today, seeing that the other party's expression was not right, I felt that I should express my position: "This imperial decree of marriage can only be used as icing on the cake. I have always believed that marriage should be based on mutual consent. This forced melon is not sweet, and it is not a good deal to rush for it.

Marrying a wife is a lifelong thing, so of course you want the one that suits you best. Sometimes, it seems like she is perfect in every way, but you just don’t like her, and you don’t want to take a second look after the first glance.

It's hard to say, he might feel unhappy and take another concubine. But after a while, he might feel that this concubine is not good enough and want to find another one that suits his taste.

Little did I know that I was wrong from the beginning. It is said that flowers do not last forever, and no one can remain unchanged forever. In the final analysis, I am just willing to tolerate the people I like, but I cannot tolerate the people I don’t like, even if they are just a little bit bad. "

It sounded like a confusing passage, and Minister Su was confused. He felt like Zhou Tianyu was telling a tongue twister.

But Yin Chengye's face turned pale when he heard this. He of course understood that the person he was talking about was himself. After all, Minister Su had only one wife and did not even have a maid, let alone a concubine.

He was different. Not only had he just confined his wife to his house a few days ago and made a concubine his second wife, but a few days ago he took a fancy to a girl from a good family and brought her to the Duke's Mansion.

Zhou Wenyu was not talking about the arranged marriage, he was clearly pointing out to himself: after going around in circles for a lifetime, he would never get the person he really wanted.

Seeing that Minister Su didn't seem to understand, Zhou Tianyu was not in a hurry, but just said to him: "However, Lord Su, don't worry, my family doesn't have the habit of taking concubines. No one in our Zhou family has taken concubines for generations.

Even if I don't have many children, I will definitely not take concubines."

This expression of loyalty was so unexpected!

Minister Su was slightly surprised, but he immediately said, "Our family also has a rule that one can only take a concubine if he is forty and has no children."

As soon as these words came out, Minister Su felt that something was wrong. He shouldn't have said this to the other party, but seeing Zhou Tianyu's sincere look, he decided to give him a chance: "Master Zhou! You and I are familiar with each other.

How about this! It's still early today, why don't you come to my house and have a meal?"

"Okay!" Zhou Tianyu agreed quickly and loudly.

After saying this, the two of them walked out of the palace together.

Yin Chengye was left alone, feeling frustrated: this boy didn't know etiquette. When he found the chance, he would definitely teach him a lesson.

Thinking of Yin Chengye, he walked out of the palace gate. As soon as he sat in his carriage, he habitually asked, "What day is it today?"

The driver was obviously an old man who had followed him for a long time. He knew what his master wanted to hear, so he replied with a hint of deep meaning: "My Lord, today is the fifteenth day of the lunar month, and it happens to be the fifth day of the lunar month."

"Let's go to the dried fruit shop! We should finish the ones at home." Yin Chengye paused for a moment and continued to instruct, "Park the car farther away. I'll walk a few steps too."

"Yes." The groom responded.

Yin Chengye got out of the car half a street away and walked towards the dried fruit shop.

But this time, like many times before, he still did not see the carriage from the princess's palace.

When I walked into the dried fruit shop, the shopkeeper came up to me and said, "The Duke is here! What do you want to buy today?"

"Let's just stick with the old three!" Yin Chengye has been buying candied fruits according to his memory for many years.

Although this shopkeeper looks young, he is the son of the previous shopkeeper, so he knows some secrets more or less.

"My Lord, there are new products in the store recently." Before Yin Chengye could say no, he immediately said, "Many nobles have bought them back, saying they want to try them out!"

Noble? Yin Chengye immediately knew what the other party wanted to say. He glanced at the other party and said, "Then have some!"
