Chapter 1756: Sorry, I Cannot Comply 1
Jiang Yun’s words made Su Junshu a little unhappy.
"Old Jiang, if you don’t want to help, then don’t, but you can’t say it like that. Don’t I just like Lu Tianmao?"
Jiang Yun sneered. Whether he truly likes Lu Tianmao or wants to use the guise of marriage to thoroughly bring this destined talent into his own fold and strengthen the Su Family’s power, only he knows best.
Whether it’s daughters, sons, nieces and nephews, or grandchildren, which of the Su Family’s children have a poor match?
Even if the family background is somewhat lacking, they are talented enough to achieve success on their own.
Su Meixiang divorced Shen Qing and, shortly after, under Su Junshu’s arrangement, married an old man over fifty. He was a former subordinate of Su Junshu’s who had recently been in favor and had done several things for the Su Family. Su Meixiang wore a flowered dress at the ball, appearing with all her elegance—when some old acquaintances saw her, they frequently shook their heads and sighed in private.
When it came to big matters, Su Junshu was impeccable, but he grew increasingly muddled over small ones. Whether it was due to a lack of successors in the Su Family or some other reason, Su Junshu always wished for his descendants to marry well, to always be among the elite.
Su Jiaojiao’s father, Su Chang, wanted to marry Xiu Jiaojiao from General Xiu’s family back then. Bai Xue married Su Junlin partly because Su Chang intended to promote her. Su Junshu had plans for this son early on, and the couple naturally wouldn’t allow Bai Xue’s presence to have an effect. However, for various reasons, the Xiu Family withdrew from the marriage agreement, and Bai Xue quietly settled into a modest life with Su Junlin.
Xiu Jiaojiao married someone else, Su Chang took another wife, and they had a daughter named Su Jiaojiao. The Su Family gave their daughter this name, perhaps to disgust the Xiu Family. General Xiu complained to Jiang Yun many times about it.
