Chapter 285 Young Master Zhao hurt Xiangsi
"What's the matter?" Lu Lingyun became curious.
Li Niyue whispered in Lu Lingyun's ear, "I heard a few days ago that the eldest master of Duke Zhao's mansion was hurt by Xiangsi!"
"What?"
"It is said that the eldest son of Duke Zhao's mansion fell in love with a concubine's daughter who had just arrived in Beijing and wanted to marry her, but her mother disagreed. She thought that she was a concubine and was not worthy of the Duke's mansion, so she was only willing to accept her as a concubine. His family sent someone to propose, but she refused. So the eldest son of Zhao fell in love with her!"
Lu Lingyun: "......"
"Do you know what's the most interesting thing?"
"What?"
"I heard from my mother's family yesterday that the young lady may have felt humiliated and jumped into the lake. When Master Zhao heard that the young lady had jumped into the lake, he also went on a hunger strike at home, saying that he would never let her down and that he must marry her, and as her legal wife! His mother forced him into no choice but to go find someone to propose marriage again today!"
Lu Lingyun looked at Li Niyue and felt that the world was unpredictable and absurd. She took a sip of tea and said, "I know the lady you are talking about. She is my cousin."
"What?" Li Niyue widened her eyes.
At this time, the nanny beside Old Lady Lin came in with a message, "Cousin! Old Lady asks you to go to our Second Master's residence when you are free. The Duke Zhao's residence has come again, and this time they want to marry Miss Nanxia as his principal wife!"
When Li Niyue heard this, her eyes widened.
Lu Lingyun went to Mr. Tong's residence that day.
The people from Duke Zhao's mansion really came to propose Tong Nanxia as his wife.
This time, no one in the Tong family refused.
There is really no reason to refuse. She is not asking to be a concubine, but a wife.
The family of Master Tong Er had always been happy to see their daughters marry into the imperial family. When Master Wang Peirong, the second aunt, heard that Tong Nanxia was chosen as a concubine by the eldest son of Duke Zhao, she was already very happy.
This time, she asked to be his legal wife, which really meant that Tong Nanxia had turned into a phoenix!
The Tong family is so powerful that they can marry their daughter into the Duke's Mansion as his principal wife. What a great marriage!
Tong Nanxia will never be able to marry into a higher-class family in her lifetime!
With such sincerity, Mrs. Lin fell silent. She had previously refused because she disdained to ask Tong Nanxia to be a concubine. Now with the incident involving Qin Shaojing, Qin Shaojing was pushed into trouble by Tong Nanxia and lost his reputation. How could she ask Tong Nanxia to marry into a wealthy family?
But now that Duke Zhao's Mansion came with such sincerity, it was hard for her to refuse.
She went to Lu Lingyun and asked, "Yun'er, what do you think of this marriage?"
"The Zhao family is wealthy and powerful. Young Master Zhao is the only son of the eldest wife. He will definitely inherit the titles of Crown Prince and Duke in the future. Marrying Nanxia as his wife is a good match." Lu Lingyun sat next to the old lady.
"I know it's a good match," Old Lady Lin grabbed Lu Lingyun's hand and sighed, "But Nanxia pushed Miss Qin from your family into the water, damaging her reputation. This matter hasn't been resolved yet, but Nanxia married into the Duke Zhao's mansion. It's not appropriate."
When Lu Lingyun heard what Old Lady Lin said, her heart suddenly felt warm.
Her grandmother was worried about her.
She was afraid that she would be hated by her husband's family because of Tong Nanxia's marriage and would have a hard time.
"Just do it, don't worry about me, I can handle it." Lu Lingyun smiled calmly.
"How can that be possible!"
"Whether Shao Jing was pushed into trouble by Nanxia is still a matter that has not been determined. Besides, my eldest son said that he will handle Shao Jing's affairs and I don't need to worry about it." Lu Lingyun said bluntly.
After hearing this, Mrs. Lin was still very worried. She said slowly, "How about this, your eldest uncle's youngest son is still unmarried, you go back and ask Miss Qin if she is willing to marry into the Tong family in Jinling. As long as she is willing, our Tong family is willing to give a million as a betrothal gift and travel thousands of miles to welcome her. After she marries into the Tong family, she will never be wronged in the slightest."
When Lu Lingyun heard Mrs. Lin's suggestion, her heart warmed.
Her grandmother really thinks of her all the time.
She is the only one in the world who truly cares about her well-being.
Lu Lingyun smiled and said, "Grandma, there's really no need."
"Ms. Qin is of high status, but our Jinling Tong family is not much worse, and is one of the best in Jiangnan. We have given a generous betrothal gift, and will not bury Miss Qin."
"Shao Jing will not go to Jiangnan." Lu Lingyun smiled and told Mrs. Lin the truth directly, "Besides, my parents-in-law have been looking for candidates for her these days, and my uncle Cheng Qi is willing to marry her."
Qin Shaojing would definitely not choose to go to Jiangnan. Jiangnan is no match for the capital, no matter how prosperous it is!
People are trying their best to get into the capital.
Then there is her background. The power of the Duke of Qin's Mansion is all here. Why would she marry far away?
Is it just for the sake of a leisurely and good life?
No, what Qin Shaojing wants is glory, top-notch glory, and he also wants to serve in the Duke of Qin's palace and be filled with glory.
The remote and mountainous Jiangnan could not satisfy her at all, and it had nothing to do with her Qin Mansion.
She would rather stay in the capital and marry Cheng Qi than marry far away in the south of the Yangtze River.
At least if she marries Cheng Qi, she will be tied to Qin in the future. Because of this incident, she can get a lot of benefits from Qin and Ningyang Marquis' Mansion.
Even if the worst happens in the future, we can still hold on to the Ningyang Marquis Mansion tree.
After all, the interior of the Duke of Qin's Mansion is not as good as the Marquis of Ningyang's Mansion.
After she finished speaking, Mrs. Lin's eyes lit up, "Is your uncle willing to marry her?"
"Well, Cheng Qi said he was willing to marry her."
Just then, the thick curtains in their room were lifted and Tong Nanxia came in.
"Grandma."
"Nanxia is here." Mrs. Lin smiled when she saw Tong Nanxia. "How are you?"
Tong Nanxia raised her head and said, "It's nothing serious."
"I'm glad you're okay," Old Lady Lin called her over and said, "Don't do anything stupid in the future. There is no hurdle that you can't overcome. Tell me about your grievances and I'll help you out."
"Nanxia knows." Tong Nanxia nodded obediently.
"By the way, since you are here, I want to ask you what you think." Old Madam Lin pulled Tong Nanxia, ​​"Are you willing to stay in the capital and marry into the Duke Zhao's mansion?"
When Tong Nanxia heard this, she raised her head and looked at Lu Lingyun, and suddenly asked, "Cousin, is Mr. Cheng going to marry Shao Jing?"
Lu Lingyun didn't notice the difference in her tone at this moment, she just said, "Well, you don't have to worry about Qin Shaojing, Cheng Qi said he is willing to marry her."
After hearing this, Tong Nanxia lowered her eyes slightly, "My granddaughter is willing to marry into the Duke Zhao's mansion."
Tong Nanxia came out of the old lady's yard and walked outside where the weather was beginning to turn cooler, when a man rushed in front of her.
"Nanxia, ​​you are going to marry into the Duke's Mansion and become his legal wife. You will be the Duke's wife in the future!"
"I have finally waited for this day. I know you are different. You can bring me a good life! No one will look down on me anymore!"
"You must take mom with you and live a good life with her. Don't ever forget her!"
Tong Nanxia looked coldly at the woman who rushed out in front of her, "Aunt Zhao, I remember that you like to serve people. When you return to Jiangnan, remember to continue to serve your masters well."
