Chapter 131
The banquet at Cao's house ended with this farce.
After Luo Chaoyan and others left Cao's house, they saw Su Yi rushing towards them on horseback.
He first looked at Su Qian and Yin Miaoshan, and then heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that they seemed to be uninjured.
"Are you all right?"
Su Qian looked at him and smiled, "Brother, why are you here?"
Su Yi said, "Jiang Chao told me." After hearing what Jiang Chao said, he felt like his heart was about to stop. He didn't care about the injuries on his body and hurriedly rode over on his horse.
He looked at Yin Miaoshan.
Yin Miaoshan lowered her eyes, feeling a little flustered.
Luo Chaoyan looked at the two of them, raised the corners of her lips, and said, "Mr. Su, are you healed?"
Su Yi nodded at her and said, "It's almost done."
He thought for a moment and said, "Can I talk to Miss Yin alone?"
Luo Chaoyan looked at her cousin with questioning eyes.
Yin Miaoshan paused, glanced at his back, and nodded slightly.
Looking at the backs of the two people leaving, Su Qian said: "Sister Luo, do you think they can succeed?"
"Maybe!" Luo Chaoyan said with a smile. In fact, she could see that her cousin also had intentions, but there was a hurdle in her heart that she couldn't get over.
…
Su Yi took Yin Miaoshan to the side of a bridge.
He resisted the urge to hold her in his arms.
"Are you really okay?"
Yin Miaoshan shook her head, seeing that he looked worried and had complicated thoughts.
"Your back injury?"
Su Yi said: "It's okay now!"
Yin Miaoshan nodded.
There was a sudden silence between the two.
"you……"
"you……"
Yin Miaoshan pursed her lips and said, "Why do you want to marry me?"
Su Yi said sincerely: "I like your frankness."
Yin Miaoshan said, "I don't know poetry or literature, nor do I know household affairs, let alone embroidery. Don't you care about these?"
Su Yi said: "Is this why you don't want to agree to this marriage?"
"I... I won't be a good wife." Yin Miaoshan said with her eyes lowered.
She was very self-aware. She had an unstable personality and after marrying into the Shangshu's mansion, she did not have the confidence that she could help him manage the harem.
Su Yi was stunned for a moment, then a surge of ecstasy surged in his heart, and he smiled and said, "So, you don't hate me and don't agree to this marriage?"
Yin Miaoshan raised her eyes and looked at him. In fact, when she was at Cao's house, she thought she was going to be harmed by Gu Xinyu, and she felt a little regretful. She has always dared to love and hate, so why did she turn herself into an ostrich because of He Yuanshan?
Under his burning gaze, she nodded gently.
Su Yi excitedly held her hand and said, "I don't care about what you said. I only care whether you have me in your heart."
Yin Miaoshan looked at his hand and felt a little sad. Maybe she should be bolder. Her cousin said that life is short and there is no need to make things difficult for herself. Since they like each other, who cares about the aristocratic family?
"Su Yi, I like you!"
Su Yi just felt that he was hallucinating. He raised his hand and pinched his face. It hurt! Woohoo... This heartless woman finally responded to him. It was well worth the beating he received.
"I... heard it, you... you are not allowed to regret it!" he said incoherently.
Yin Miaoshan couldn't help but burst out laughing. She didn't expect that the peacock, who was always eloquent, would stutter one day.
…
The next day, rumors spread in Kyoto that Mr. Cao and Miss Gu were in love, but were afraid that their elders would not agree, so they made it a fait accompli.
Cao Mansion
Mrs. Cao looked at her son lying injured in bed. She felt distressed and angry at his failure. She also hated Gu Xinyu, the jinx, for instigating her.
Duke Cao walked in with a sullen face and shouted angrily, "You bastard, look at what you have done! You have completely disgraced me."
"Father, I was wrong." Cao Qian said tremblingly.
Madam Cao comforted him, saying, "My dear, Qian'er has realized his mistake."
Duke Cao said angrily: "It's all because of you. Loving mothers often spoil their children!"
"My dear, what should we do now? Should we really marry that unlucky Gu Xinyu?"
Cao Qian looked up at his father, feeling a little uneasy.
Duke Cao said, "They are lying together in dishevel. If I don't marry them, do I have to wait for the civil and military officials to report me for not disciplining them properly?"
Madam Cao said, "But, my dear, this is not entirely Qian'er's fault. Someone deliberately framed him."
Cao Qian wailed, "Yes, father, this is all caused by Su Qian and that ghost-faced man."
Hearing this, Duke Cao couldn't help but pick up the cup on the table and threw it at him, "How dare you say that, you idiot, you have the guts to do things, but you don't think it through, and instead it consumes yourself, what great things can you do?"
Madam Cao said with some dissatisfaction: "My dear, then we can only accept Qian'er's loss?"
Duke Cao sneered, "What else? The incident happened in our house. Are you going to sue the government and say that it was your son who wanted to harm others but was harmed instead?"
"Tomorrow you will send a letter to the Gu residence to propose marriage!"
Seeing her husband's determined face, Mrs. Cao had no choice but to agree.
Gu Mansion
At this time, Gu Ling was about to go out angrily with his sword in hand.
The servants quickly stopped him.
"Second Master, where are you going?"
"Get out of my way! I'm going to chop that fat guy Cao Qian into pieces! How dare he bully my sister?"
As he said that, Gu Ling pushed away the person who was blocking him regardless of anything.
"Stop right there!" Gu Hou yelled at him angrily.
Gu Ling blushed and said, "Father, are you really going to watch my sister marry Cao Qian?"
"She has done such a thing. Who else can she marry if not Cao Qian?" said Marquis Gu.
Gu Xinyu stumbled out of the house. She looked at Gu Hou with a pale face and pleaded, "Father, I don't want to marry Cao Qian! I don't want to marry Cao Qian!"
"Father, my daughter begs you!"
Gu Hou looked indifferent and said, "Xinyu, for the sake of the Gu family, you must marry him."
"Father, are you planning to abandon your daughter?" Gu Xinyu looked incredulous!
