Ye Mansion

Ever since Jiang Qingluo asked last time, Ye Ronger knew that the Jiang family was coming to propose marriage.

She also told her mother quietly that Madam Ye did not object, and even Lord Ye, who was always strict, liked Jiang Chuyuan very much.

He has outstanding looks, a distinguished family background, is the top scholar in the imperial examination, and is the prince's companion. Such a man is a rare golden son-in-law in the capital.

More importantly, Jiang Chuyuan is a man of clear mind and upright character, and Lord Ye is very satisfied with him.

Since both her husband and daughter were satisfied, Mrs. Ye was naturally satisfied as well.

Therefore, when she heard that the third wife of the Jiang family, Su Wu, was coming, although she was a little confused, with Yu Shulan's status, even if she didn't come in person, she shouldn't have found someone of such a low social status as Su Wu.

But then he thought about how Yu Shulan had always been close to her two sisters-in-law, so it was understandable for Su Wu to come, so he happily welcomed her over.

Ye Ronger was hiding in the room, her face also flushed.

"Mrs. Ye, I came to your house today because I have something happy to discuss with you."

Su Wu didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"I wonder what happy event Madam Jiang San is referring to?"

Since the man didn't explain clearly, Mrs. Ye naturally had to pretend that she knew nothing.

Su Wu smiled and said, "I have come here specifically to ask Miss Ye to marry my nephew. They say that one's wish is to pass the imperial examination and have a happy wedding night. Now that one of these wishes has been fulfilled, it is natural that I should also think about starting a family."

"My nephew fell in love with Miss Ye at first sight, and my sister-in-law is also satisfied with Miss Ye. So, she sent me here to discuss it with you. If the Ye family also likes my nephew, it is naturally a destiny."

When Mrs. Ye heard that Jiang Chuyuan had just passed the imperial examination, she thought it was correct. This was because Jiang Chuyuan was the only one from the Jiang family who had won the top spot.

"Mr. Jiang, you have outstanding looks and good character. You are a rare good husband. We are naturally happy to have such a son-in-law."

"Then Madam Ye has agreed. Why don't we make it a decision today?"

Su Wu's eyes lit up and he spoke impatiently.

"good…"

Before Mrs. Ye could utter the word "good", she heard the servant coming to deliver the message.

"Princess De'an has arrived."

"The eldest princess?" Mrs. Ye was shocked. She had never had any contact with the eldest princess. Why would she suddenly come to the Ye family?

But despite her doubts, she hurried out to greet him.

Su Wu's heart skipped a beat. The eldest princess had the best relationship with Yu Shulan. Could it be that she came here at Yu Shulan's request?

Sure enough, the eldest princess came in and said that she was there to act as a matchmaker.

"Uh...what a coincidence! Mrs. Jiang San is also here to propose marriage for my daughter."

Mrs. Ye didn't expect her daughter to be so popular, but no matter who the eldest princess was talking about, she was afraid that she would not get what she wanted.

"Really?" The eldest princess looked at Su Wu and smiled contemptuously, "I wonder who Madam Jiang San acted as matchmaker for?"

Su Wu bowed politely and said, "Princess, he is my nephew."

"Nephew?" The eldest princess raised an eyebrow. "This is quite a coincidence. I came here today to act as a matchmaker for your nephew."

"What?"

Now it was Mrs. Ye's turn to be confused. Why did they find two matchmakers?

The eldest princess continued, "Mrs. Jiang San has two nephews. I wonder which one you're talking about?"

"I did this for..." Su Wu had no choice but to grit her teeth and say, "It's my nephew Jiang Yilang."

"Jiang Yilan?" Madam Ye almost fainted. Although both were young masters of the Jiang family, there was a world of difference between Jiang Yilan and Jiang Chuyuan.

She questioned, "Since it's Jiang Yilang, why do you say he passed the imperial examination?"

"Lang'er passed the imperial examination this year and was on the list of successful candidates." Su Wu's voice became lower and lower.

"You obviously did this on purpose." Mrs. Ye was angry. She almost ruined her daughter's happiness.

"Mrs. Jiang San is the matchmaker for Jiang Yilang, and I am the matchmaker for Jiang Chuyuan."

Princess De'an finally understood why Yu Shulan was so urgent in the letter. It turned out that someone was trying to snatch her daughter-in-law from her.

In the name of Jiang Chuyuan, I have never seen anyone so shameless.

She said in a cold voice, "Mrs. Jiang San, you will go to jail for marriage fraud."

"Princess, please understand. I did not commit marriage fraud. I was talking about Jiang Yilang all along. It was Madam Ye who misunderstood."

Su Wu was not afraid at all. Every word she said was carefully considered, so as to avoid misunderstandings while making it impossible for people to find any flaws.

It was after realizing this that Mrs. Ye became even angrier, she said with bloodshot eyes.

"Rong'er will never marry Jiang Yilang. Madam Jiang San, please go back."

"Miss Ye didn't like Lang'er, so it's okay if this marriage doesn't happen. We can only say that they are not destined to be together."

"Chu Yuan is also a good person. After all, she will marry into our Jiang Mansion and we will be a family in the future."

Su Wu didn't feel the slightest bit ashamed of being exposed, and continued to speak calmly.

"Third Madam, before you act as a matchmaker in the future, you must make it clear. Don't let people misunderstand you and ruin someone's lifelong happiness. You will suffer retribution if you do so."

The eldest princess couldn't stand her hypocrisy the most.

Su Wu blushed, "Yes, then I'll take my leave first."

Staying any longer would only lead to boredom, so Su Wu just got up and left.

Seeing how scheming she was, Mrs. Ye couldn't help but feel frightened.

"What kind of den of wolves is this Jiang family?"

Madam Jiang Da is ignorant and stupid, and Madam Jiang San is so two-faced. If her Rong'er marries him, will she be able to live a good life?

And just now, the Third Madam deliberately hinted that if she married Rong'er, she would never be able to escape from the Jiang family.

"Madam Ye, the second branch of the Jiang family is a good one, different from them." The eldest princess explained hurriedly.

"Princess, Young Master Jiang Chuyuan is a good husband. We were originally satisfied with him, but I heard that Second Madam Jiang seems to obey the old lady's orders. The Jiang family is also headed by the eldest lady. If Rong'er marries him, will the second wife be able to protect her?"

The eldest princess was silent for a moment. Madam Ye was right. Yu Shulan was indeed too submissive when dealing with the Jiang family.

No matter how rude the request was, she would agree.

Even though I have reminded her many times, she only replied with "A harmonious family brings prosperity."

Thinking of what she had just said to Xia Tong outside the mansion, she sighed and decided to trust her cousin again.

"Madam Ye, Shulan is not someone who doesn't know what's going on. She's good to the Jiang family, but this has to be done without affecting her children. Otherwise, she won't give in."

"Besides, she has already told me that she will find a way to divide the family before Miss Ye comes into the family."

"real?"

Mrs. Ye's eyes lit up. Su Wu's behavior just now really scared her. Now that she heard that they wanted to divide the family, it was perfect.

"If that's the case, then I'm relieved."

"Does Madam Ye agree?"

After completing the task assigned by her friend, Princess De'an was immediately delighted.

Madam Ye nodded and said, "I agree."

"Okay, then I'll notify Shulan and ask her to pick a good day to formally come to the Ye family to propose marriage."

"Thank you, Princess."

The fact that Yu Shulan was able to ask Princess De'an to act as a matchmaker is enough to show how much she values her daughter.

Mrs. Ye was very satisfied.
