Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1446

Chapter 1446

Mrs. Ma was a little disappointed. She thought she could prepare for the wedding right away, but she had to wait three years.

But what Tang Chujun was thinking was, how come it also takes three years for a flower to bloom?

She said slowly, "I don't agree. One year! Three years is too long." She looked up and asked, "Madam Ma, if the two get married, will you restrict Zhao'er's travel and not let her show up in public?"

Madam Ma was stunned for a moment, "Mr. Chu means..."

Tang Chujun said, "I know you well. You are not a nagging mother-in-law. You are kind and friendly to others..."

"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't flatter me." Madam Ma didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "How did you learn this trick?"

Tang Chujun smiled, "I just think Ming Zhao is capable, and the Ming family can't do without her for a while. If you don't mind her doing business, you probably won't have to wait so long."

The rich and powerful have always loved money, but looked down on merchants. Not every family can tolerate a daughter-in-law doing business.

Madam Ma thought for a moment and asked her son, "Yier, have you ever told her that you want to go to the border?"

Ma Chuyi answered respectfully, "My son has told Miss Ming Zhao about this, and Miss Ming Zhao told my son that she is willing to accompany him to the border in the future."

Madam Ma sighed, "Miss Ming has agreed to accompany my son to the border, so why shouldn't I let her do business? It's not shameful to do business, and our Ma family doesn't have so many rules."

She looked at Ming Zhao sincerely, then at her son. "One year, is that okay? Three years is too long, I'm afraid I'll get sick from waiting. In one year, I can prepare first and go through the three books and six ceremonies. Jiangcheng is so far away from the capital, so it will take some time to prepare."

Now that it has come to this, if Ming Zhao insists on another three years, it will seem that she is not sincere in getting married. She raised her eyes to look at Ma Chuyi and asked with her eyes, "Is one year okay?"

Ma Chuyi also asked with his eyes, is one year okay?

The two looked at each other and then started laughing.

This small action of the two simply warmed the hearts of the elders.

Mrs. Ma, in particular, had never seen the slightest bit of shyness in her wooden son's eyes, so she immediately decided, "Then it's settled. One year! I'll go back to Beijing to prepare the betrothal gifts. It seems that I have to come to Jiangcheng several times this year. Haha! Jiangcheng is a good place, with nice people and beautiful scenery."

Ma Chuyi had never seen his mother so happy before, and he felt very relieved.

He had not been with his mother since he was a child, and there was always a gap between them. They were polite to each other. Sometimes he envied his younger brother who was as sticky as a dog-skin plaster in front of his mother, but he could never make his mother happy.

Now his mother was finally happy for him. He bowed deeply to her and said, "Son, I am sorry for causing you so much trouble."

Madam Ma waved her hand and said, "As for me, my whole life depends on taking care of you and your brother."

In her words, she was excluding General Ma. It was not that she was jealous and intolerant.

But the man acted first and reported to her later, and only told her the truth after they had a son and a daughter at the border. She couldn't get over this hurdle.

Moreover, she stopped contacting her natal family because of this man, and has been wholeheartedly managing the Ma family over the years.

Was she afraid of hardship and didn't want to go to the border? Of course not. No one knew that she was actually doing business secretly.

Otherwise, how could the Ma family have survived until now?
