"Stop dreaming!"
"If it was Yunxi you were going to marry, it would be a beautiful story of deep love between the couple, but if you're after my Shuer, don't blame us for being rude!"
"Mr. Du, in the past year, you have gone from being a scholar preparing for the imperial examination in Beijing to now serving in the Hanlin Academy. My Bai family has also provided a lot of help. As for your future career, it is entirely in your own hands."
Jiang, who had been accumulating anger, finally exploded at this moment.
She didn't want to talk about the past year anymore. Her baby daughter was like a possessed woman and no one could persuade her.
All the money flowed into his Du family, otherwise how could a poor scholar like him have such a smooth life?
What she got in return was Du Wenqing's cold face. How noble was her daughter?
How can you tolerate such abuse from others?
So no matter what, her daughter would not marry into the Du family!
As for the betrothal gift, she almost forgot about it if Du's mother hadn't mentioned it.
Are those trivial things that are not presentable worthy of her daughter?
She thought it would be more comfortable for Du's mother to dream on the spot!
At least, there is everything in dreams!
"You, the Prime Minister's Mansion! You are going too far!"
Du's mother was stimulated by Jiang's words. What did the Bai family do to help her son?
Du Wenqing’s current status is entirely due to his own hard work and has nothing to do with the Bai family!
Now they dare to abuse their power to oppress others. If she reports this to the government, she will definitely put their family in jail!
"Mom, please stop talking."
Du Wenqing now understood Bai Shu and Jiang's determination.
If he forced Bai Shu to marry him, not only would his career be ruined, but his reputation would also be ruined!
Du Wenqing clenched his hands. He didn't understand how things could turn out like this.
Clearly a month ago, Bai Shu was still the little follower who always put him first in everything, and clearly a month ago he was confident about the future,
How come in the blink of an eye, the past feels so far away...
"Wen, Wen Qing brother?"
Su Yunxi in Du Wenqing's arms also slowly woke up at this moment.
But she looked at Du Wenqing who was so close to her, and was a little surprised. What happened to her? What just happened?
"hiss--"
Before Su Yunxi could think about it, she felt a sharp pain in her arms, waist and knees.
I felt like I was beaten with a sack, and I felt weak all over.
Su Yunxi felt dizzy and felt like she was going to faint at any moment. She could only cling to Du Wenqing.
When Du's mother saw this, she was so angry that she jumped up and down. She stepped forward and pulled Du Wenqing's already sore arm.
Let him "accidentally" put Su Yunxi down,
It didn't matter if she didn't move. As soon as she moved, Su Yunxi fainted again. She still held Du Wenqing in her arms for support.
"How shameless!"
Mother Du was so angry that she spat at Su Yunxi. Everyone present frowned slightly.
At this moment, Du Wenqing no longer struggled. He couldn't offend the Bai family. He had to stabilize the Bai family first, and then he would think of a way.
He looked at Bai Shu with red eyes, thinking secretly in his heart that the root of everything was Bai Shu. If he wanted to succeed, he had to start with her...
Bai Shu was naturally not afraid of Du Wenqing's gaze. She looked back generously, but her aura was not inferior at all.
"It is my honor to marry your cousin."
Du Wenqing expressed his stance to the Bai family, "As long as there is green mountain, there is no fear of running out of firewood."
"It's hot, please move inside the room."
Du Wenqing ignored Du's mother's anger and dissatisfaction, and directly picked up Su Yunxi again and walked towards the room.
Jiang and Old Lady Bai looked at each other and followed.
Du's mother only dared to curse in a low voice, and the matchmaker ignored her. From now on, she would not get involved in anything related to the Du family!
Only the Regent remained in the courtyard. He looked at the contented Bai Shu and said,
"Doctor Bai, do you have time to change the medicine for me now?"
Xiao Moqing was in a good mood, and he didn't even feel the injuries on his body.
Upon hearing this, Bai Shu looked at Xiao Moqing. He was standing not far away, and he was smiling!
Not to mention how captivating this smile was, it also made Bai Shu dazed for a moment.
He smiled slightly under the sunshine, and suddenly the cold aura around him was gone.
He really lives up to the saying, "The man on the street is as beautiful as jade, and the young man is unparalleled in the world."
"Yes! Come on, let's go change the dressing!"
Bai Shu was frightened by Xiao Moqing's deep eyes, but she still pretended to be calm.
[I'm not afraid of bad men, I'm just afraid of handsome men! ]
[But if a man isn't bad, women won't love him. Why are these statements so contradictory?]
Bai Shu has never really been in love. She occasionally talks to the system, but that's just talk.
If she really met a boy she liked, she would be at a loss as to what to do.
"Walk!"
Xiao Moqing's smile deepened, reaching his eyes. He followed behind Bai Shu.
Listening to her mumbling something like scriptures in her heart, I suddenly felt that the years were quiet and good.
…
In the evening, Su Yunxi finally woke up.
But the matter was settled, her marriage with Du Wenqing had been finalized.
Old Mrs. Bai even wrote a letter and sent it to her hometown. It is estimated that it will be delivered to her father in a few days.
"Did Brother Wen Qing really say that?"
Su Yunxi still couldn't believe it. She asked Cuiguo repeatedly and no longer cared about the pain in her body.
"Miss, it's true. Although the process was rather bumpy, the Du and Bai families finally reached an agreement. The old lady gave the order herself."
Cuiguo knelt at the head of Su Yunxi's bed, trembling with fear. She had explained many times,
She understood Bai Shu's intention. If she didn't want to be beaten, she could only put the blame on Du Wenqing.
After all, no one expected Su Yunxi to faint, and she had clearly woken up, but then fainted again.
Even the court doctor couldn't figure out the reason. There must be some shady plan.
She'd better protect herself...
"Impossible! How can my grandmother arrange a marriage for me?"
"Since ancient times, marriage has always been decided by parents and matchmakers. Before my father came, she had no say!"
When Su Yunxi heard the old lady's words, she immediately felt a bloody taste in her throat.
He wanted to cough but couldn't, and his voice was hoarse from being angry.
She had been trying to please the old lady in this house, hoping that she could give her some shelter.
I never expected that she would not be confused when she should be, but would be extremely confused when she shouldn't be!
"Miss, please be careful with your words!"
Cuiguo was so frightened that she kowtowed repeatedly, wishing she could cover Su Yunxi's mouth.
How dare she!
The master and servant had been in the prime minister's residence for six years. Honestly, the Bai family had never looked down on her or treated her unfairly.
Moreover, her father had said long ago that Su Yunxi's marriage was entirely decided by Old Lady Bai.
If someone with ulterior motives heard what they just said, their good days would probably be over!
