Shen Zhiyi was about to turn her face away, but the sister-in-law of the Shen family held her back. She
shook her head.
It would not look good if there was a fuss on the day of the engagement.
She could not cause trouble. If she wanted to get angry, she had to wait until the engagement was over and
the guests had left.
But Shen Zhiyi could not bear it, and was about to explode, when she heard the gentle voice of a woman outside the house.
"With so many people, am I here at the wrong time?"
Shen Zhiyi's eyes suddenly lit up.
No, you came at the right time!
There were many people in the house, and Yu Tingwan was not in a hurry to go in, leaning against the door.
The girl was fair, with a teardrop mole at the end of her eye, and she was delicate and gentle. She was holding a gift wrapped in red paper in her hand, which looked very important.
Old Lady Ge didn't know her.
Yu Tingwan was dressed in silk and satin, looking particularly noble. But how many guests who came today were not noble?
They just wanted to make friends with Sister Yi!
Old Lady Ge didn't take it too seriously. She looked at Madam Shen next to Yu Tingwan and called her name.
"Chao Ru, you have to take care of your daughter-in-law. Otherwise, she will climb over your head in the future."
Madam Shen: "I chose my daughter-in-law. She is perfect and does not need anyone's advice." How could Mrs. Ge be happy when she was humiliated? "You just need to be trained by the elders!" She
turned her face black, and Madam Shen was still a little scared. Yu Tingwan said in a faint tone: "Shen Zhiyi, who is this old woman?" Shen Zhiyi:... You are still you. She smiled: "My grandfather's sister." Yu Tingwan knew it. Shen Zhiyi had complained to her many times. "I have an impression." "Before learning that you and Chu Liulang broke off the engagement, she came here specially to say that you can't even keep a man. She is the one who has no life of happiness." "It's her." The smile on Mrs. Ge's face froze. She also regretted it. How could she know that Shen Zhiyi would have such good fortune. Shen Zhiyi: "She set rules for her daughter-in-law in the early years, and finally caused one corpse and two lives." Yu Tingwan squinted. "Being an evil mother-in-law, she wishes everyone was as vicious as her. Look at her behavior and tone. I thought she was your biological grandmother. Otherwise, why would she come here to show off her power?" Shen Zhiyi said nonchalantly, "My grandmother is dead." Yu Tingwan: "Oh." Shen Zhiyi: "My grandfather is dead too." Yu Tingwan: "Oh." Yu Tingwan was puzzled: "Then why didn't she die?" Yu Tingwan looked at Old Lady Ge: "You are quite good at living." Old Lady Ge was furious:? ? ! "You!" Madam Shen: "Aunt, this is the general's wife." Old Lady Ge lost her temper immediately. "General... the general's wife." Yu Tingwan asked again: "What is she doing here?" Shen Zhiyi answered helpfully: "She brought a group of people here to help me find a way out." Yu Tingwan said softly: "You have just been engaged, and you are asked to beg your future husband's family? You are better at sucking blood than leeches in the fields. How can you, as a junior, not know what's appropriate?" Yu Tingwan: "The old lady also put down her old face to beg you because you married well." This made Mrs. Ge look a little better. She straightened her clothes, raised her mean face, and nodded: "That's right! What the lady said makes sense." Yu Tingwan: "Isn't it just a few official positions? Several relatives of the Shen family who have nothing to do with each other have spoken. If Xiao Huaiyan really cares about you, go and find a way." "If they want to be the loyal and brave marquis, your father-in-law should give up the position and let these dog-headed and ghost-faced things who came from nowhere climb on their heads." Who is as weird as you. Everyone's face changed. "Madam, please don't say that. We don't mean that." Yu Tingwan said she couldn't hear him. "Since you're asking for help, you have to be sincere." "What...what?" The girl said kindly, "Beggars on the street have to kneel down and kowtow when asking for help. Who is so rude as you?" "Are you still not leaving? Are you waiting for me to kick you out?" Shen Zhiyi smiled. She was really happy. After the annoying person left in anger, she walked over with the fan in her hand. "What are you holding?"
Yu Tingwan threw the thing to her.
Shen Zhiyi was caught off guard and almost lost her grip and dropped it to the ground.
Yu Tingwan: "I am a plain and simple person and I don't know anything about jewelry. But I can't come here empty-handed, so I gave you a gold bar."
Shen Zhiyi: ...
thicker than her neck...plain and simple?
————
On the other side, the people from the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion were ready to set off.
Xiao Huaiyan got on his horse and led the way, full of vigor and vitality. Behind him was a long betrothal gift that seemed to have no end.
But he was very nervous and talked to Ning Yunling beside him from time to time.
"Am I dressed okay today?"
Xiao Huaiyan: "Am I handsome?" You
are sick
. Ning Yunling frowned tightly.
"Let me ask."
Ning Yunling: "I have been hiding at home these days and have not gone out. How come you are getting along with that shrew Shen Zhiyi?"
Xiao Huaiyan: ?
"You are looking for death by talking about my people in front of me?"
Just kidding, Ning Yunling would be afraid of him.
"My cousin is right behind, you have the guts to deal with me!"
Ning Yunling really didn't understand.
"Did Shen Zhiyi force you? That shouldn't be the case, she shouldn't look down on you."
Xiao Huaiyan: ? ? ?
"You can go now."
"Why are you so anxious?"
Ning Yunling felt that he was right.
"You and I are not on good terms. But three years ago, Shen Zhiyi and I were drinking, and you came over to care about me and sent us back one by one..."
Xiao Huaiyan glanced at him: "You just came by."
Ning Yunling: ?
He didn't quite believe it.
"Once I had a quarrel with her, and she was about to hit me, and you came to persuade her. Wasn't it because you were afraid that she would hurt me?"
Xiao Huaiyan looked at him ridiculously.
"I hit you because I was afraid that her hand would hurt."
Damn you.
Ning Yunling was so angry that she almost laughed.
"And before, she came to my house to see me, and you also came over. Aren't you concerned about my marriage!"
Xiao Huaiyan didn't care: "Your mother likes her. If you two succeed, what does it have to do with me?"
Who is as unscrupulous as you!
It took nearly an hour to get there.
When they arrived, there were already many people waiting at the gate of the Shen family.
Among them was a man and a tiger.
It was the first time that Yu Tingwan saw a wealthy family propose marriage. It was strange to squeeze in the crowd.
She saw Xiao Huaiyan on a tall horse. He was wearing bright clothes and looked particularly festive.
Ning Yunling was angry at being ignored by Yu Tingwan.
She looked back.
Further back.
There was a sedan chair.
Rong Di was standing next to the sedan chair.
The matchmaker came over with the gift, bowed to everyone at the gate, and said loudly.
"The Xiao family of the Loyal and Brave Marquis Mansion is here to deliver the betrothal gift."
Yu Tingwan stared at her intently.
Jiashan came over and felt that Yu Tingwan was treated unfairly by looking at her expression.
Yaoyao didn't even propose marriage and make a big fuss about the wedding.
Then, Yu Tingwan turned her head and rarely took the initiative to talk to her.
"Do you think he looks like..."
"What does he look like?"
Yu Tingwan raised her hand and pointed at Xiao Huaiyan: "The groom."
Jiashan: "He is one today."
Yu Tingwan pointed at the sedan chair behind Xiao Huaiyan.
Slowly.
"The bride."
