The scumbag ran away from marriage, I remarried on the spot

"Oh no!"

"Madam, it's not good!"

Zhang was just about to go to Gu Xuanyi's yard, and Meng Jinyao was about to leave when the urgent voice of the maid suddenly came from outside, as if something big had happened.

Hearing this voice, Meng Jinyao paused.

Zhang's heart was pounding and beating very fast, and her intuition told her that it would not be a good thing. In an instant, many things that could happen appeared in her mind, and she was instantly panicked.

After the maid hurried in, Ms. Zhang calmed herself down and said in a deep voice: "What's the matter? So reckless and without any rules. Fortunately, there are no guests here today."

After hearing this, the maid was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly bowed to Meng Jinyao and her, and replied: "Madam, it's the eldest lady. Something happened to the eldest lady."

After hearing this, Ms. Zhang's vision went dark and she almost collapsed on the ground. Fortunately, Meng Jinyao was close and quickly reached out to help her. The maid next to her also reacted quickly and stepped forward to help her, which prevented her from falling to the ground. .

Meng Jinyao and the maid helped Zhang sit down.

At this time, Ms. Zhang's face was pale and she looked panicked. She had just learned that her daughter was swimming in the lake with Prince Wu'an, and now she was told that something had happened to her daughter. If something happened to her daughter while she was with a man, how could that be a good thing?

She asked with a trembling voice: "What happened to Xuan Yi?"

The maid replied: "The eldest daughter fell into the water while going to the lake today. It was Prince Wu An who rescued her. Now Prince Wu An has sent the eldest daughter back."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Zhang's mind was buzzing. She was really afraid that something might happen. She just thought that something might have happened between her daughter and Prince Wu'an, but it turned out that it was true. If a girl goes swimming in a lake with a man and falls into the water but is rescued by the man, her reputation will be lost. In this case, the only choice is to marry the man.

Meng Jinyao's face froze. She only found out about this in the morning. Why did it happen in the afternoon?

When she saw Mrs. Zhang, she was completely stunned, but with the maid present, she couldn't say anything. She just reminded her tactfully: "Sister-in-law, why don't you go check on Xuan Yi first? Xuan Yi should be fine."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang slowly came back to her senses and nodded dully: "Okay, I'll go take a look. Third brother and sister, please go back first. We'll talk some other time."

Meng Jinyao responded and returned to Wei Ruixuan.

Prince Wu'an was now being received by Gu Jingsheng. He saved his daughter, so he had to say thank you, both emotionally and logically. After thanking Prince Wu'an and sending Prince Wu away, Mrs. Zhang went to her daughter's yard angrily.

Seeing that her daughter was fine and had put on clean clothes, she was holding a bowl of ginger soup with a smile on her face, as if she was very satisfied with what Prince Wu'an Bo was doing.

Mrs. Zhang was so angry that she took two steps forward, raised her palm, and hit her daughter on the face with a "pop" sound.

Gu Xuanyi was stunned. She dropped the bowl of ginger soup in her hand without holding it. The ginger soup spilled on her skirt. Her face was burning with pain. She raised her head blankly and looked at her mother in disbelief: "Mother, you , you hit me?"

The maid on the side was also shocked. The eldest lady always doted on the eldest girl. She usually held it in her hand for fear of falling, and held it in her mouth for fear of melting. Why did she suddenly do something?

Mrs. Zhang looked at her hands and then at her daughter's face. She felt a little regretful, but more annoyed. She asked all the maids to step back, staring at her daughter with angry eyes, and angrily reprimanded: "Xuan Yi, I wasn't the one before. I told you that Prince Wu An is not suitable for you? Why would you go swimming in the lake with him? "

Gu Xuanyi was stunned, then turned to smile and said matter-of-factly: "Mother, I think Prince Wu An is very good. My grandmother said that Prince Wu An is not good. Is it because I am not her granddaughter and she doesn't want me to marry well? When I marry him, I will be the crown prince’s wife, and from now on I will be the countess, what’s wrong with that?”

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang almost fainted from anger and asked: "Xuan Yi, tell your mother, is there someone instigating you in front of you? You promised well that day and you would not have any thoughts towards Prince Wu'an. Why did you suddenly change your mind?"

A flash of panic flashed across Gu Xuanyi's eyes, and then she firmly denied it: "No, no one is instigating it. I think Prince Wu An is very good. She is handsome, has a good family background, and she likes me."

Mrs. Zhang was so angry that her head was dizzy, and the fingers she pointed at Gu Xuanyi were trembling slightly: "Xuanyi, you, you are confused!" As she spoke, her tears couldn't stop falling, and she blamed herself, "I also blame my mother. , it’s mother who promised Mrs. Wu Anbo to let you meet, otherwise you wouldn’t have fallen in love with him, it’s all mother’s fault.”

Gu Xuanyi disagreed: "Mother, I think you did the right thing. I think Prince Wu'an is very good. Now that something like this has happened, I must marry him. Could it be that mother wants me to marry him?" Like Gu Xuanling, a lowly concubine, marrying into a petty official's family is so shabby?"

Don't think she doesn't know that her cousin's marriage has been decided. Her fiancé is the son of an eighth-rank official. It is said that the three generations above are scholars and they come from a clear family, but none of them are high-ranking officials. They are all low-ranking officials. The petty official.

The person who has done the best is Mr. Liu's deceased father, who has become a fifth-rank official. It can be seen that generations of the Liu family have been useless. Don't think about Mr. Liu's future.

But a lowly concubine is just right for such a family, unlike her, who wants to be the wife of the crown prince.

Mrs. Zhang angrily scolded: "Shut up, your father is also a concubine!"

Gu Xuanyi was stunned. After a moment, she turned her face away and said with a pinched neck: "Mother, it's a done deal anyway. There are still people I know who saw Prince Wu'an rescue me, so I have no choice but to marry him. You can figure it out." , if you don’t let me marry, then I, I will elope with him, just like Third Brother and Aunt Li did!"

Mrs. Zhang did not expect that her daughter would talk to her like this, and even say such shocking things as wanting to elope with a man. She was disappointed and angry: "Are you, are you trying to make me mad to death?"

When Gu Xuanyi saw her mother crying, she also regretted that her tone of voice was too much, but she still said stubbornly: "My mother said it, saying that I am the legitimate daughter and the eldest granddaughter of the Hou family, which is different from the concubine Gu Xuanling. I should marry into a rich and prosperous family. My mother also said before that Wu'anbo's house is very good. As long as I behave well and marry Prince Wu'an, I will be the crown prince's wife. I don't want to marry into a shabby family like Gu Xuanling."

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhang's face turned pale, and she vaguely felt that it was not because of herself that her daughter was so obsessed with Prince Wu Anbo and wanted to be the glorious wife of the crown prince.

Gu Xuanyi glanced at her and then continued: "Mom, he was seen when he rescued me. Maybe he promised me that he would go back and tell Mrs. Wu Anbo today that he would come to propose marriage in two days."
