The Love of Passerby A

Chapter 539: A Survival Guide for Women in the Old Republic of China (78)

As expected, nothing in this world is difficult as long as it can be solved with money.

What's more, Cao Wanning is rich and Cao Ce is powerful.

On the fourth day that Su Xiangran had lived in Cao's mansion, when Cao Shixun had not yet figured out how to approach her, the house had already been tidied up and in order.

The Su family will move back to their own house tomorrow.

Cao Shixun also raised his concerns about the safety of the Su family. Without saying a word, Cao Ce waved his hand and directly dispatched several fully armed soldiers with guns to protect the Su family.

Cao Ce hasn't been having a very good time lately!

In fact, when they were having dinner together two nights ago, when he saw Su Xiangran sitting not far from him, he would unconsciously slow down his eating pace, and even involuntarily kept pace with her.

When Su Xiangran picked up the bowl, he also picked up the bowl; after Su Xiangran put down her chopsticks, he also put down his chopsticks.

However, these behaviors often occur subconsciously, and by the time he realizes that something is wrong, it is already too late.

So starting from the third day, Cao Ce chose not to go home for dinner, because the feeling of sitting on pins and needles and having a thorn in the back was really unbearable.

Having been in power for such a long time, Cao Ce would always follow the dining etiquette of his "mother" without thinking when he suddenly saw it was almost the same as his own.

This is something that is engraved in his bones and cannot be abandoned, but it is also the thing Cao Ce wants most.

So since he can't change it, he might as well not change it. Anyway, as long as he doesn't see Su Xiangran, he won't be affected, so he will just try to see his niece as little as possible!

In fact, Cao Wanning also noticed her brother Cao Ce's abnormal behavior these days, and she was not much better.

In recent days, she often dreams of her brother and aunt holding a cane and scolding her for etiquette in the middle of the night.

As a woman, she often had more to learn than just a few strategies, so that severity was something she would never forget.

Not long after returning to the Su family, her husband Su Weicheng told her that he wanted their daughter to get married next year.

It was quite difficult to say this, for fear that Cao Wanning would not agree. Unexpectedly, this time she agreed immediately and even urged Su Weichen to set the wedding date as soon as possible.

Song Chengjing originally thought that it would take some effort to get the Su family to move out of Cao's Mansion, but he didn't expect that on the fifth day after returning home, he was invited to the "Su Mansion" to discuss the wedding date.

This turn of events happened too fast! How could all the problems be solved before he even understood the situation?

Su Xiangran also thought that this matter was strange and always wondered if there was some conspiracy behind it!

Later, it was Nanny Hong who told her some inside information.

Nanny Hong was a member of the Cao family. She was about ten years older than Cao Wanning, so naturally she had seen this legendary "Princess".

"Actually! In terms of appearance, the young lady is more like Miss Fangning." After explaining the whole story, Nanny Hong said, "When you were a child, you had a heroic look in your eyes, but it's gone this time when you came back.

And it has a more girly feel, that kind of ladylike feeling, and she looks like that girl."

Is it the heroic spirit between the eyebrows?

Thinking of this, Su Xiangran suddenly understood something. During her years of studying abroad, although she was very independent, Song Chengjing never let her worry about anything.

All she had to do was study, and that person would help her arrange the trivial matters in life.

From small things like the charcoal stones in hand warmers used in winter to big things like the data that may be cited in a paper.

He would deal with anything that might cause him trouble in advance.

Su Xiangran would sometimes protest: if he spoiled her like this, one day she would become a "waste" and he would despise her.

However, Song Chengjing also accepted her "protest". From then on, when dealing with these matters, he would try his best to bring Su Xiangran with him to let her know the handling methods and procedures of the matter.

"My Xiaoran will never be a waste." Song Chengjing once said to her, "As long as you can do everything and know how to do it, that's enough."

It was because of this that Su Xiangran's brother Su Yanqing disliked Song Chengjing at the beginning, but later gradually accepted him.

Otherwise, given his temper, he would never agree to let these two people return home on the ship together.

That day, Mr. Song and Song Chengjing visited the Su couple together and picked a date for the wedding.

Unlike Xie Wanru, Su Xiangran chose a Chinese wedding style, and even planned to wear a traditional dragon and phoenix cheongsam as her wedding dress.

"Great! I thought you would choose Western-style dresses after going abroad." Mr. Song nodded with satisfaction, "It's a good thing to remember your roots! Remember, no matter where we go, we are Chinese."

Because it was a cheongsam, it took a lot of effort to make, so she had to quickly ask a craftsman to come to her house to take measurements for Su Xiangran and tailor the clothes.

Of course, when making clothes, the master will deliberately make them a little bigger to leave room for the clothes. When it is time to wear them officially, they still have to try them again.

After all, the "bride" is only fifteen years old and there is still a year before the wedding. What if there is still a long time to go?
