The fool has become a spirit, and she can speak

Ge Dongqing said, "No, except for the Marquis, the Wan family is very kind, especially Wan Lianxing's nephew and nephew's wife, who are upright and easy-going. They will never make things difficult for others. Your daughter will definitely not suffer any loss if she marries him."

For the sake of his son Hong Yunrang, Hong Zhekai used his daughter to please Wan Lianxing. However, Wan Lianxing looked down on his daughter and thought that his daughter could marry his nephew's grandson. No matter how he thought, marrying Wan Lianxing was better than marrying his nephew's grandson. But things had come to this point and he had no choice. If this was the case, he didn't know how to explain to his wife when he returned home.

"Let me be frank with you. If my daughter marries the Marquis's nephew, she will be his legal wife. I don't think this is too much to ask."

Ge Dongqing scratched his head and said, "It's not excessive, but I'm afraid it's impossible to do it."

"Why? My daughter is both talented and beautiful. She can't be subservient to others."

Ge Dongqing thought to himself, which wealthy family raises a daughter who is both talented and beautiful? Doesn't the young master of the Wan family need a partner? There is no age limit. When he reaches the age, the suitors will line up in front of the Wan family's door. Anyone with a discerning eye can see what kind of family business the Wan family has. Your daughter cannot be humble and submissive. Cheng Youning's mother would definitely not agree with your daughter. It's just that he couldn't say that.

"Although Cheng Youning is young, many people want to marry him. Before your daughter, Cheng Youning had already arranged two marriages. Your daughter Hong Jiutong can only be listed as the third wife."

"what?"

Ge Dongqing said: "This child is so popular."

Hong Zhekai said: "Then I have to go back and do something about my daughter's work. If she is not going to marry the Marquis, then my daughter will not easily agree to be someone else's concubine."

Ge Dongqing said: "The marriage of children is decided by their parents and matchmakers. In the end, it's just a matter of your words."

For the sake of his son, Hong Zhekai could only agree first: "My daughter is sensible and will definitely agree for her brother's sake. I'll discuss it with her when I get home."

"Brother Hong, this is your Hong family's chance to marry into a wealthy family. This is not the time for your daughter to be petty. You only have this opportunity now. Don't miss it. Whether you can see your son or not depends on this."

"I understand. I will try my best to persuade my daughter." No matter how obedient his daughter was, he still had no confidence.

Ge Dongqing said: "Then I will wait for good news from Brother Hong."

In the evening, Hong Zhekai called his daughter Hong Jiutong and said, "Jiutong, I have a marriage to discuss with you."

"My marriage?"

Hong Zhekai nodded: "It's your marriage."

"But my brother's marriage hasn't been arranged yet."

Speaking of her brother Hong Yunrang, Hong Zhekai's wife began to cry secretly. She had not seen her son since he was taken away by Wan Lianxing on the mountain. She was always thinking about Hong Yunrang, so she often shed tears. The depressing atmosphere at home also shrouded the entire Hong family all day long. Today, they had the opportunity to marry and save their son, and the couple did not want to miss it. After all, the Wan family was a famous family, and it was indeed a high-class marriage for the Hong family to marry into the Wan family at this time.

Hong Zhekai said: "Your brother's marriage can only be put on hold for now. Dad can only marry you off first so that your brother can have a chance to return to our Hong family."

Hong Jiutong said: "Which family does my father want to marry me to? What does this have to do with my brother?"

Hong Zhekai said, "To be honest with you, Dad wants to marry you to the Wan family of Wanxinhou Mansion. Your brother is in his hands. In order to let your brother return home as soon as possible, Dad has no choice but to let you suffer."

When Hong Jiuyi heard that getting married could save her relatives, she agreed immediately, "If it can help my brother come home, it doesn't matter who I marry. I am willing to marry into the Wan family."

Hong Zhekai knew that his daughter was sensible and would agree, but he didn't expect her to agree without crying or making a fuss. Although he married his daughter off to marry into a rich family, he was not happy about it. This daughter was the apple of his family's eye, and he was just sending her away as a transaction to reconcile the conflict with Wan Lianxing. How could the young master of the Wan family be worthy of his beautiful and talented daughter? Thinking of this, Hong Zhekai couldn't help but sigh with sadness.

Seeing his parents like this, Hong Jiutong comforted them, "Don't worry, Dad and Mom. I won't embarrass you when I go to the Wan family. I will definitely serve the elderly and my husband well and let my brother come back soon."

"Jiutong is a sensible child. His parents can feel at ease when he goes to the Wan family."

"When should I get married? Isn't it better for my brother if I get married sooner?"

Hong Zhekai said: "There is no rush to get married. If you are satisfied with this marriage, I will arrange it."

Hong Jiutong said: "I have no objection, Daddy is the one who makes the decision."

"Your mother and I have something to discuss. You can go down first."

"Yes."

Seeing Hong Jiutong leaving, Hong Zhekai's wife started crying, "It seems that our daughter didn't think highly of this marriage. We are the ones who harmed her."

Hong Zhekai said, "Madam, please don't cry. Didn't your daughter say no?"

"I felt bad because she didn't say no. She didn't even ask who in the Wan family she was going to marry or how old she was. It was obvious that she had accepted her fate."

Hong Zhe said: "My relationship with Wan Lianxing is not good. If I don't use my daughter's marriage, Yuner will suffer, and I will always be controlled by others. Who made me a banished person now?"

A daughter is best known by her mother. Hong Zhekai's wife was right. As soon as Hong Jiuyi left her parents' room, she covered her mouth and started crying. She ran to her room while crying. Her maid Jingjing kept chasing after her, "Miss, wait for me. Are you okay?"

As soon as she arrived at her own boudoir, Hong Jiutong threw herself on her bed and burst into tears. Feeling helpless and in pain, she did not dare to cry out loud. She could only bury her head in the quilt and cry suppressedly, for fear that other people in the house would hear her and her parents would hear it.

"Miss, if you don't agree to this marriage, why did you agree to it? Can't you just turn it down? There were so many young masters from noble families who came to our Hong family to propose marriage in the past, but they were all sent away. Why are you putting yourself in such a difficult position today?"

Hong Jiutong wiped his tears and said, "Silly Jingjing, do you know who the Wan family is?"

"Yes, there is only one powerful Wan family, and that is the Wan family of the tyrannical Wan Xinhou Wan Lianxing."

Hong Jiutong said: "My father works under him, and my brother is a hostage in his hands. How dare I not marry him? If I don't marry him, it's the same as roasting my father and brother on the fire. Our Hong family is in the hands of Wan Lianxing. How dare I not submit to him, even if I have to bite my teeth and swallow it."
