Hearing him say this, Qu Lingyuan felt deeply sorry for Chu Yin. If Chu Xiaoer suffered the same fate as Chu Yin, she would definitely deserve it.
Qu Lingyuan looked at Shu Jin expressionlessly and asked him, "The people who wanted to abuse me that day were all hired by Chu Xiaoer. Are you still willing to help her?"
"Ah?" Shu Jin was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect her to say that suddenly.
Qu Lingyuan frowned and smiled bitterly: "I just don't have any evidence. If you don't believe me, forget it."
Shu Jin said seriously, gently kissed her forehead, and said with a gentle look: "I believe you, how could I not believe you."
No wonder she was so sad. Chu Xiaoer was determined to harm her, but she still had to help Chu Xiaoer.
Fortunately, I came to see her today, otherwise, I don’t know how long she would feel uncomfortable about this matter.
Chu Xiaoer is so shameless that she tried to harm Qu Lingyuan and still wants his help?
Qu Lingyuan stared at Shu Jin in a daze.
The male protagonist's paranoia is always so serious. If he likes you, he will believe everything you say.
No matter how many tricks you have, one of mine is enough.
After squinting her eyes and thinking for a while, Qu Lingyuan decided to tell him, "Don't think too highly of Chu Xiaoer. She was so cruel to me, so maybe she had something to do with Chu Yin's affairs as well."
Shujin hadn't thought of this and nodded blankly.
Qu Lingyuan then gave him a satisfied kiss. Even if you throw a tantrum, you should know when to stop. It's not good to make people angry.
After solving the problem, Shu Jin changed the subject and squinted his eyes and asked, "What's the meaning of wearing so little?"
Qu Lingyuan suddenly felt awkward and stammered, "No...it's nothing."
——
After receiving Shujin's affirmative answer, Chu Xiaoer no longer felt panicked. She stopped struggling and waited for his good news with peace of mind.
But she was destined to be disappointed this time, as Shu Jin had decided not to help her.
Chu Xiaoer didn't wait for good news, but received a betrothal gift from the Huang family.
The Huang family did not attach much importance to this daughter-in-law, and the betrothal gift they offered was extremely meager, but Chu Shishan still kept smiling and accepted the betrothal gift.
It’s good enough that Chu Xiaoer can get married now. If the Huang family doesn’t want her, then the person who is willing to marry her will probably be even poorer.
Chu Xiaoer thought Shu Jin had just delayed her, and had been waiting for him to save her. However, on the day of her wedding, Shu Jin did not show up.
What is Shujin doing? He is also preparing for the marriage proposal and betrothal gifts.
The news that the young marshal wanted to marry an actress was a hot topic in Fengcheng. Everyone was waiting to see if the Shu family would strongly oppose it.
But Lin Shuangxue agreed wholeheartedly, and Shuying and his wife did not dare to object.
The pair of blood jade phoenix bracelets that symbolized the daughter-in-law of the Shu family had already been given to Qu Lingyuan, and there was absolutely no reason to take them back.
After learning the origin of the bracelet from Shu Jin, Qu Lingyuan was surprised for a long time.
So from the very beginning, Madam Lin had already determined that she would get Shu Jin? She was truly a master of prediction.
As a result, the marriage proposal and betrothal gifts, which seemed difficult to everyone in Fengcheng, were solved smoothly without any surprises.
Chu Xiaoer's family was not much better off than Chu Yin's. She was tied up and carried into the bridal sedan. Since the betrothal gift was not much, her dowry was also very meager.
Even when entering the bridal chamber, their hands and feet were tied.
The hemp rope was completely invisible under the cover of the wide wedding dress. Huang Qiu carried her wherever she went. The people of Fengcheng who were watching the fun thought that the son-in-law loved his new wife very much and kept sighing that Chu Xiaoer was so lucky.
Chu Xiaoer spent the first day after her marriage in grief. Only then did she understand why Chu Yin had ended her life so decisively.
But she didn't have the courage of Chu Yin. She didn't dare to die and was still greedy for life.
Although the Huang family treated her badly, they did not restrict her from going out.
Chu Xiaoer saw with her own eyes the betrothal gift that Shu Jin gave to Qu Lingyuan, which was carried from Shu's house to Feng Xi's theater.
The first box was carried into the theater, and the last box had not yet left the Shu family's door.
Compared with the two small boxes Huang Qiu gave her, it really... makes people feel sad.
She returned to the Huang family in a daze. Now that she is married, it is too late to say anything.
——
After the betrothal gifts from the Shu family were delivered, the person who was most surprised was Qu Yuanxiang.
I thought Qu Lingyuan wouldn't have a good status if she married a warlord, and it would be good enough if she wasn't bullied, but looking at Jin Ye's attitude... he seems to treat her like a treasure.
Since she was going to get married, Qu Lingyuan's time in Feng Xi's class would not be long. Qu Yuanxiang came to her room and was speechless for a long time.
"As expected, we Lingyuan people are beautiful and kind-hearted, and we will always be blessed by God." Qu Yuanxiang looked at her lovingly and reached out to stroke the top of her head with soft hair.
That cute little girl back then is about to get married in the blink of an eye.
Qu Yuanxiang never married in his life and only raised this one child. The feeling of reluctance he felt was beyond words.
"I'm married not far away, so I can come back often." Qu Lingyuan comforted him and told him not to be so sad.
Even after getting married, she has no intention of giving up opera.
This is not a tool she uses to attract attention, but a career she wants to promote throughout her life.
Opera is the future national treasure, and its performers should not be looked down upon.
Qu Yuanxiang was still old-fashioned. He shook his head and said, "Since you're going to marry Master Jin, then you should just stay peacefully in the Shu family. They won't want a daughter-in-law to be out in the public eye, especially when it comes to...Alas."
Knowing that it would take a while to correct these old ideas, Qu Lingyuan just smiled and said nothing.
Qu Yuanxiang just thought that she had heard him and stopped nagging her.
Unexpectedly, when Qu Lingyuan performed on stage for the last time before getting married, a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner came to the audience.
"Oh, my God, you are truly a treasure from heaven! (English)"
He excitedly pulled Qu Lingyuan and said a string of words that no one could understand.
But Qu Lingyuan was not a native woman of the Republic of China after all, so she could understand and even speak fluently.
Everyone was stunned by the conversation between the two.
Qu Yuanxiang even pulled her aside and asked quietly, "When did you learn to speak foreign words?"
Qu Lingyuan smiled sweetly, placed a white finger on her red lips, and said mysteriously, "Secret!"
He really couldn't get angry at this face, so Qu Yuanxiang had no choice but to let her go.
Qu Lingyuan told Qu Yuanxiang and Shujin what Mr. Ambrose had said truthfully.
Ambrose said that he has always liked Chinese opera culture and wanted to invite Qu Lingyuan to perform on the other side of the ocean.
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was in an uproar, and the whole Fengcheng was boiling. No one had expected that an actor could win the favor of a foreign master.
Mr. Ambrose knew some Chinese, and occasionally he would call Qu Lingyuan "Master Qu" in Chinese.
Foreigners have a high status in the hearts of the Chinese people. Even Mr. Ambrose calls him that. Fengcheng is also more polite to the people in Fengxi's class.
Qu Lingyuan felt relieved. This was also her first step in correcting the prejudice against actors in this era.
