In Mei Rui's gentle yet firm words and embrace, the originally tense and uneasy mood gradually began to ease.
At this moment, "Second Miss!"
Li finally arrived in a hurry with a smile as bright as spring breeze on her face.
As soon as she saw Song Wanwan, she immediately went to greet her with joy on her face.
"This is really a great thing worth celebrating!" As she said this, Li took Song Wanwan from Mei Rui's hands and gently wrapped her arms around her, as if to pass all the warmth to her.
Song Wanwan seemed quite bewildered by the sudden enthusiasm and the inexplicable claim of good news. She looked at Li with puzzlement and asked curiously, "What kind of good news is this?"
"The prince of the Duke of Anguo's mansion has formally proposed marriage to us, hoping to marry you!"
Li leaned over and whispered in Song Wanwan's ear, with an uncontrollable smile on her face. She was obviously really happy about this matter.
"Wow! This is so exciting!"
Hearing this, even Mei Rui, who was standing nearby and worried, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, with a strange light flashing in her eyes.
However, compared to the joyful mood of the people around her, Song Wanwan at this moment was just staring blankly at everything happening in front of her.
I couldn't help but think: How could there be such a coincidence?
It is as precious and rare as getting unexpected wealth at the most desperate moment!
But soon, this sudden surprise turned into deep worry.
"I wonder if mother will agree?"
Thinking of this, Song Wanwan couldn't help but bite her lips slightly.
Noticing this change, Li's eyes moistened. She looked at Song Wanwan with a gaze filled with affection and explained, "The Anguo Duke's son has already invited Madam Jiang to act as a matchmaker, and they also have the Prime Minister's wife's recommendation. With the Anguo Duke's strong background and these favorable conditions as guarantees, the princess will most likely not object. After all, this matter is also very beneficial to her, as she still needs the help of the Anguo Duke to rescue her eldest daughter."
As long as my daughter can have a good home, all the grievances I have suffered over the years are worth it.
Li's heart was filled with joy and anticipation, but she couldn't help feeling a bit tired and sad.
After all, as a mother, she has been silently giving and has almost given everything for her daughter's happiness.
But Song Wanwan was still nervous.
Although her mother has done her best to plan for her future, the uncertainty and unknown challenges of the future still make her anxious.
After all, marriage is no joke; it concerns a person's lifelong happiness, and she doesn't want to regret it for the rest of her life because of a momentary decision.
Not long after, Bi Tao came in hurriedly, seeming to have been crying: "Miss, I went to ask around, and I heard that the Princess of the County said she wanted to find a husband for you, so she rejected the proposal of the Prince."
There were still tears in her eyes, and her tone was filled with anxiety and grievance.
"What?!"
When Li heard this, she was so angry that she almost jumped up, and she wanted to go directly to the Princess to argue with her.
Over the years, Mrs. Li has always loved her daughter very much and naturally would not allow anyone to easily destroy all the plans they have made for their daughter.
Thinking of this, her brows furrowed tightly and her face turned ashen.
How can anyone who is willing to be a live-in son-in-law compare with Fu Yu!
In Li's eyes, Fu Yu was not only talented in both civil and military affairs and had good character, but also came from an extraordinary family. More importantly, he was deeply loved by her daughter.
How could such a match made in heaven be taken away by a mediocre person?
Bi Tao continued, "Miss, I was really holding back my anger, so I ran to the garden and deliberately ran into the prince, and he ended up giving me a note."
After she finished speaking, she handed over a thin note, obviously wanting to convey this important news to her lady as soon as possible.
Song Wanwan quickly took it and saw that it said: The Princess has politely declined this marriage.
Don't worry, I know what's going on.
Seeing these familiar lines of small regular script, Song Wanwan felt much calmer.
Although the situation seemed much worse than expected, she believed that as long as he was by her side to support her, nothing would be a problem.
For some reason, she just trusted Fu Yu.
Perhaps it's the sense of security the other person gives, or perhaps it's the trust built through countless nights spent together.
Anyway, in Song Wanwan's mind, there is nothing that Fu Yu can't do.
Since Fu Yu said there was a way, he would definitely do it.
With such firm confidence, the worries that had been lingering in my heart dissipated like smoke.
She breathed a sigh of relief and regrouped herself to face whatever might happen next.
Afterwards, the Princess called Song Wanwan to her side.
She had a sickly look on her face, and her cold eyes stared straight at Song Wanwan, making the latter's hair stand on end.
There is an indescribable pressure in the air, which makes people feel very depressed and uncomfortable.
No matter how hard she tried to stay calm, Song Wanwan couldn't help but feel a chill running down her spine.
"You still want to marry Fu Yu? Dream on! He is Yueyue's beloved, and he must remain chaste for her and wait for her to come back. Don't try to replace him!"
The Princess' words revealed an unquestionable attitude, and every word seemed to weigh a thousand pounds on people's hearts.
"Besides, your so-called Brother Jin is about to pass the imperial examination. How many daughters of powerful families want to marry him? I guess by then the door of the Duke's Mansion will be trampled by matchmakers..."
