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

Wei Ruixuan.

Gu Jingxi returned to the courtyard. It was already noon, just in time for lunch, but he didn't see the little girl, not even the two maids Qingqiu and Ningdong.

He felt strange, so he asked Chunliu: "Madam, did you go out today?"

Chunliu replied respectfully: "Madam has an appointment with someone today and left about an hour ago." After saying that, she thought about it for a while and then asked, "Master Marquis, do you want to have lunch at noon?"

Hearing this, Gu Jingxi frowned slightly, feeling that there was something wrong with the usually smart maid. It was already lunch time, and she asked if she wanted to have lunch. If she didn't have lunch, how could she have dinner?

Chunliu saw that his expression was wrong and quickly explained: "Before going out, Madam said that she would not come back for lunch, so that the kitchen did not need to be prepared. The servant asked again if she wanted to prepare the Marquis' lunch. Madam said that you were going out to visit friends today and would not be back at noon. , there is no need to prepare, it will save you a lot of preparation and waste, I never thought you would come back so early."

Gu Jingxi was stunned.

So, he came home without food?

Chunliu quietly raised his head and glanced at him, unsure whether he was unhappy or not, and asked anxiously: "Master Marquis, I will go and order the kitchen to prepare. I wonder what you want to eat today?"

It's already this hour, and Gu Jingxi doesn't want to bother anymore, so he says: "No need to bother, I will go to the old lady's place today to have lunch with her."

Chunliu nodded: "Yes."

Before Song Xinning arrived, Meng Jinyao was already waiting in the private room of the restaurant.

However, Song Xinning, who had always been punctual, was late today, half an hour late. Meng Jinyao felt strange, but she waited patiently.

Song Xinning hurriedly rushed to the appointed restaurant, took a deep breath, calmed down the resentful and sad expression on her face, opened the door of the private room, and saw Meng Jinyao still waiting patiently. She stepped into the private room and said apologetically: "Ayao, I'm really sorry. I encountered something and got stuck. Have you been waiting for a long time?"

Meng Jinyao shook her head slightly: "I've just arrived, so I'll sit down and see what I can eat."

Song Xinning responded and sat down next to her.

The two chose a few signature dishes and asked the maid to take the menu cards to talk to the shopkeeper.

Song Xinning looked at her friend calmly, with a look of amazement flashing in her eyes. She had known A Yao for so long, and she had never seen A Yao dressed up like this before. She was so bright and dazzling, and her beauty was unparalleled, making people unable to take their eyes away. Previously, A Yao All the clothes and jewelry were prepared by Mrs. Meng, which directly covered up 30% to 40% of Ayao's beauty.

Seeing A Yao's face with a smile, no trace of gloom, and a carefree look, she put her mind at ease and asked with a little hesitation: "A Yao, are you okay?"

Meng Jinyao was stunned for a moment, then turned to smile and said, "It's okay. The Changxing Marquis Mansion didn't treat me badly. It's good to eat and live well. What can happen to me?"

Hearing this, Song Xinning pursed her lips and smiled, stretched out her hand to pinch her cheek, and giggled: "It can be seen that the Changxing Marquis Mansion did not treat you badly. Your complexion is rosy. Not only is you not thin, but it seems that you have gained some weight. Look at you. In this outfit, compared to the last time I saw you, now you finally have the style that Mrs. Hou should have. Our A-Yao still looks good dressed like this, and I am moved when I see you."

Meng Jinyao smiled playfully: "Don't worry An Ning, I'm fine. If I'm not doing well, I'll probably go to you overnight."

"I don't hope that one day you will defect to me. We A-Yao will always be fine." Song Xinning said and gave her an angry look. Seeing that she was still smiling with a silly look on her face, she snorted softly, "I'll go. I went to my maternal grandfather's house in Tongzhou. I heard about your falling out with your parents' family just the day before yesterday when I returned to the capital. But I was so frightened by you that I immediately asked you to meet me today. I originally wanted to see you yesterday, but I had other plans yesterday. thing."

Meng Jinyao said: "It's only a matter of time before I fall out with them, but they gave me the chance earlier."

Song Xinning gritted her teeth and said indignantly: "Your stepmother is so brave, she even wants to steal your biological mother's dowry."

Meng Jinyao's eyes darkened and she smiled mockingly: "How could she dare to do this without the permission of my father and my grandmother? However, they are all the same, but there is no evidence that their mother and son were involved, and the finger pointed at Sun. That’s it, so what’s being said now is that Mrs. Sun embezzled her stepdaughter’s dowry, and they, mother and son, pretended they didn’t know anything and passed the responsibility on to Mrs. Sun, leaving Sun alone to take the blame.”

Song Xinning was stunned, then nodded after a moment and said, "Yes, the most important thing is your grandmother and your father." She said with a sarcastic smile, "Your father likes your stepmother so much, but when something happened, he didn't hesitate. Pushing her out to block the knife, it seems that the man only likes her more than that."

Meng Jinyao shrugged: "Selfish people, if nothing happens, they are just a loving couple. If anything happens, they will be a shield."

"Maybe all men are so heartless."

Song Xinning said, a hint of sadness flashed in her eyes, and she looked up at A Yao. She felt heartbroken: "A Yao, after this incident happened, you really fell out with them, and you will really have no family in the future. Your grandmother, you are her eldest granddaughter, but those who don’t know think you are the granddaughter of her enemy. If she hadn’t treated you like this, your stepmother wouldn’t have dared to treat you like this. Even if your father ignored you, you wouldn’t. As for suffering so many sins.”

Meng Jinyao smiled bitterly: "Even if this incident didn't happen, it means that there is no natal family, so it doesn't matter anymore. But now it seems that she is probably not the granddaughter of the enemy." She paused in her voice, and opened her red lips slowly. He said, "He is directly an enemy."

Song Xinning agrees with this. When things have developed to this point, as far as the Yongchang Mansion is concerned, Ayao is their enemy, an enemy who wants to eat flesh and blood.

She sighed inaudibly. A-Yao clearly did nothing wrong, but the elders in the family treated her as an enemy and targeted her, as if A-Yao's life was a sin.

It's really ridiculous. If A Yao is really the disaster star, after so many years, all the people in the Yongchang Mansion still can't be killed?

After a moment, she asked curiously: "Ayao, I heard that she and your stepmother are both sick. Are you really angry that you are sick?"

Meng Jinyao asked back: "They have weak bodies, how can they withstand the hardships of things? Isn't it normal for them to get sick when something happens?"

After hearing this, Song Xinning suddenly realized that she was not really sick, but was pretending to be sick.

Meng Jinyao said warmly: "Aning, we won't mention them anymore. It's very unlucky." After that, she took the initiative to change the topic, "Speaking of which, our Aning will also leave the cabinet at the end of the year."

As soon as these words came out, Song Xinning lowered her eyes, the look on her face dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and said softly: "Ayao, I'm afraid my wedding won't be held as scheduled."

Meng Jinyao was stunned: "Why?"
