"What do you mean?" Ren Yaohua looked at Qiu Yun and said coldly.
Qiu Yun breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the maids didn't come over. She smiled and said, "It seems my third cousin also knows about the Ren family's marriage with the Qiu family. The Qiu family's choice is naturally me. Do you know who the Ren family's choice is?"
Qiu Yun and Yun Wenfang are indeed a pair of good friends. He did this kind of thing of stopping a girl from talking about marriage without batting an eyelid and without any pressure.
Ren Yaoqi's impression of him grew worse. Just as he was about to pull Ren Yaohua away, Ren Yaohua stopped him, looked at Qiu Yun and said with a sneer, "A real man, yet he keeps talking like a woman in the backyard, hesitant to speak. Third Master Qiu, how about I have someone build a tent and put on a show for you?"
Want to... want to speak but can't? Sing an opera?
Qiu Yun's face shuddered, and he thought furiously: This kind of woman really can't be married into the family! Otherwise, wouldn't I be losing my power as a husband?
He took a deep breath, trying desperately to maintain his composure, but it only made his face distort further. "It seems Third Miss Ren is very dissatisfied with me."
Ren Yaohua snorted lightly.
Qiu Yun nodded and said angrily, "It seems we're destined to be together! How about Third Miss Ren go and tell the elders to call off this marriage? I'm sorry, I simply can't handle a woman as sharp-tongued as Third Miss Ren."
Ren Yaoqi's heart moved when she heard this. Seeing that Ren Yaohua was about to speak, she put her hand behind her and gently pinched her lower back. Then she smiled at Qiu Yun and said, "What is Qiu's cousin saying? We don't understand."
She felt something was wrong. Qiu Yun was not Yun Wenfang. Even if he was really angry, he would not say anything without thinking. The third young master of the Qiu family was a smooth person.
Now, after hearing him instigate Ren Yaohua to reject the marriage proposal in front of the elders, she understood a little. It seemed Qiu Yun's visit to the Ren family wasn't simply to deliver a letter to Yun Wen, as he had just said. He knew about the proposed marriage between the Qiu and Ren families, but he didn't want to marry Ren Yaohua.
Qiu Yun should also know Ren Yaohua's temperament and know that she is proud, so she wanted to provoke Ren Yaohua to make a fuss first.
He probably didn't really want Ren Yaohua to avoid him when he asked her to. He knew that given her personality, she would never meet him alone. He just wanted to make her wary and dissatisfied with him. Then he deliberately handed her the letter and revealed its contents after she didn't take it. He just wanted to provoke Ren Yaohua's anger step by step.
As long as Ren Yaohua makes a fuss, Old Lady Qiu and Mrs. Qiu, who are dissatisfied with the marriage, will have the opportunity to make trouble behind the scenes.
Qiu Yun looked at Ren Yaoqi for a while, then suddenly laughed out loud: "Oh no, I've been discovered... Fifth cousin, you're so smart!"
He was very angry and annoyed by Ren Yaohua's scolding, but it really didn't reach the point where he lost his composure. As the eldest grandson of the Qiu family and the future patriarch of the Qiu clan, Qiu Yun had learned to control his anger very early on.
However, even though Ren Yaoqi saw through her plan, Qiu Yun didn't seem embarrassed at all.
Ren Yaohua also realized that she had just been plotted. She couldn't help but think that if Ren Yaoqi hadn't stopped her, she might really be so angry at Qiu Yun that she would have to beg her grandmother not to let her marry into the Qiu family. It wasn't because she was provoked by his words, but because she really looked down on Qiu Yun's character.
