Chapter 1300: Chapter 1300: The Daughter-in-Law Personally Chosen by the Parents
“Indeed?”
Another woman joined in, “Having a son is precious, but having a daughter is worthless. No matter how good she is, she belongs to another family. It’s better to have a son to rely on.”
Several won discussed how Su Yunjin having a daughter was not valuable. Su Yunjin did not agree; a daughter was also her and Gu Ya’s treasure, and she even wished for a daughter!
Just as Su Yunjin was about to speak, the Consort of Prince Rui, who had been sitting quietly at the side, spoke up first, “Who says that Lady Su’s daughter is worthless?”
As soon as the Consort of Prince Rui spoke, everyone at the table fell silent simultaneously. They instinctively looked towards her, and seeing her defend Su Yunjin, those who had spoken of the daughter being worthless internally regretted their words, hoping they had not inadvertently offended the Consort.
The Consort glanced at Su Yunjin and then addressed everyone slowly, “Lady Su is my sworn sister. No matter what Lady Su gives birth to, I will love them as my own child. If it’s a son, I will acknowledge him as my sworn son, and the Prince Rui Residence will provide him support in the future. If it’s a daughter, I want to make a declaration before you all as witnesses.”
With that, the Consort returned her gaze to Su Yunjin.
“Lady Su, you and I share a bond. Now, before all, let discuss a matter with you. It happens that I have a son. If the child you bear is a daughter, then she can be my daughter-in-law in the future. The official wife position in the Prince Rui Residence will be my gift to her upon our eting!”
What?
The Consort of Prince Rui intended to engage Su Yunjin’s unborn child as her son’s wife?
Everyone present was stunned upon hearing this.
Not just the ladies present.
Even Su Yunjin was shocked.
She could never have imagined that the Consort would publicly arrange for her unborn child to be her own son’s primary wife. Su Yunjin’s face was filled with disbelief.
She couldn’t recover her senses for a long while.
Only when the Consort spoke again did Su Yunjin co back to reality, “Sister, my son suits your daughter, don’t you think?”
The Consort was smiling.
Su Yunjin, knowing what was proper and not wanting to embarrass the Consort in front of so many people regardless of her own agreent to the matter, responded respectfully, “Your Highness, to receive your favor is a blessing for and my child.” In such a setting,
Su Yunjin could only agree.
The Consort smiled and looked around again, “Now, let everyone witness this; if Lady Su’s unborn child turns out to be a daughter, she will be the rightful official wife of the Prince Rui Residence, possessing a most prestigious status.” With these words from the Consort,
No one present spoke lowly of Su Yunjin’s unborn daughter again. The status and position as the future official wife, a prestige even ten sons might not achieve, made everyone at the eting envy Su Yunjin even more.
Not only had she beco the sworn sister of the Consort, but her yet unborn child also secured such a noble status and future as the Consort’s daughter-in-law.
This was not sothing just anyone could imagine.
