Jiang Qingyao said calmly, "Prince, I'm kind to you only because you jumped into the icy lake last year to save me. I must repay you for saving my life."
The servant beside He Huaixuan was surprised when he heard this, "That's not..."
But he was interrupted by a warning look from He Huaixuan.
After Jiang Qingyao walked away, He Huaixuan said to the servant fiercely: "Don't let her know about the ice lake. If you dare to tell anyone, I will break your legs."
The servant was trembling.
As it entered the main street, the carriage began to slow down.
Zhitao's eyes were red. "Obviously, the He family's first and second branches have two unmarried young men, why did the young lady choose the Marquis?"
He Huaixuan had secretly engaged to someone before marriage and had bad behavior, so he was indeed not a good match. However, the other two gentlemen were both good-looking and talented, so they could be considered.
Hearing this, Jiang Qingyao was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, "You're crying about this?"
"Relax, I made this choice after careful consideration. If I cancel the engagement, my grandmother, stepmother, and father will not let me go. If I choose He Huaixuan's cousin, he may not be happy. If I am forced to marry me, my mother-in-law will not like me, and my husband will not love me. What good will it be for me?"
"It's different if I choose the Marquis. I'll become the Marquis's wife, He Huaixuan's mother. Everyone will respect me for the sake of the Marquis and Old Madam He. At least I don't have to live under the guise of others. It's pretty good."
Compared to the bad things in her previous life, the start of this life is much better. Jiang Qingyao breathed a sigh of relief as she no longer had to be squeezed dry.
The worry on Zhitao's face disappeared, and she nodded gently, "Miss, you are right. I am narrow-minded. If the Marquis doesn't come back, if you want to have your own child in the future, you can choose a child from the He family's side branches and adopt him as your child. That way, you will have someone to rely on when you are old."
In the future, in the entire Anguo Marquis Mansion, apart from Madam He, the young lady will be the most noble woman. If the prince is not filial, he will be punished according to the family rules!
Jiang Qingyao lifted the car window curtain to get some fresh air. A casual glance caught her eye and a cold, handsome face.
