After the system ran, I took off with my family

"Grandma... Dad... Mom, thank you, I..."

Su Jinyu's eyes were red and her voice was choked with sobs, unable to speak. With such family members protecting her, what else was there to be afraid of?

If anyone dares to gossip in front of her, she will do as she did to her brother and fight back.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but clench her fists.

Old Madam Su and the others had no idea what she was thinking, nor did they know that Su Jinyu, who was known as gentle and dignified by everyone in the future, would be associated with the word "shrewish".

.........

In the main room of Yarongxuan in the Marquis Xuanping's mansion, Lord Zhao Rang felt angry and distressed when he saw Zhao Qirong lying on the bed with a bruised face.

"Tell me, how are you going to explain this to me and the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion?"

Mrs. Zhao, the wife of the Marquis of Xuanping, who was sitting beside the bed and crying out of heartache, became anxious when she heard the Marquis blaming her son, "What explanation do you want? Su Jinxiao beat Qi Rong like this, what else do you want?"

Zhao Rang frowned, a little impatient, "Don't be unreasonable. According to Su Zhao's temper, he might be on his way here. You should think about how to calm his anger."

"Dad, Mom, my son and Shan'er are in love with each other. Why don't we take this opportunity to cancel this marriage?" Zhao Qirong lay on the bed and looked at Marquis Xuanping eagerly.

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Rang's face darkened and he said firmly: "No! I don't agree! You must marry the girl from Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion!"

Mrs. Zhao also tried to persuade him earnestly: "Rong'er, what's so good about the girl from the second branch of the Qin family? After all, she is just the daughter of a concubine.

How can she compare to Su Jinyu from Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion? Su Jinyu is dignified and beautiful, and she is also the legitimate daughter of the Marquis's Mansion. She is a perfect match for our Marquis's Mansion."

"But…"

Zhao Qirong thought of Su Jinyu's appearance and couldn't say anything bad about her against his will, but he had promised Shan'er that he would marry her.

Seeing that his attitude was wavering, Madam Zhao added fuel to the fire, "Rong'er, how about this? You listen to your parents and welcome Su Jinyu home first.

After Su Jinyu comes into the family, I will find an opportunity to bring Shan'er into the house. Although I cannot give Shan'er the position of the principal wife, I believe that Shan'er will understand you for her love for you."

Zhao Qirong thought carefully about her words for a moment, then said hesitantly, "My son is afraid that if Su Jinyu finds out, she will make a scene and won't agree to let Shan'er enter the mansion."

"What are you afraid of!" Madam Zhao sneered and said sternly, "There is no man in the world who doesn't have three wives and four concubines. She has no right to stop you.

If she dares to make trouble, she will be accused of being jealous. Besides, it is not her turn to make decisions in our Xuanping Marquis Mansion."

Zhao Qirong hesitated for a moment, then nodded reluctantly in agreement.

Seeing his son relax, Zhao Rang also relaxed his brows, thought for a moment, and then reminded him worriedly, "I don't care about Shan'er Shan'er, but the marriage with Jingyuan Marquis can't be lost.

But this matter has become too big, and I’m worried that the Jingyuan Marquis’ Mansion will return the goods.

So, Rong'er, you should write a letter of divorce to Su Jinyu now, be gentler, and say some nice words to coax her. As long as she doesn't agree to cancel the engagement, this matter will be easy to talk about."

"Yes, your father is right."

Mrs. Zhao nodded repeatedly, then turned around and told the maid waiting beside her to bring paper, ink, pen and inkstone. The couple breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Zhao Qirong lying on the table beside the bed and finishing writing the letter and sending it off.

After instructing the maid to serve Zhao Qirong well, the couple looked at each other and left the room.

As soon as they left Yarongxuan, Madam Zhao's face suddenly darkened, "The daughter raised by the second branch of the Qin family is really good. She even dared to instigate Rong'er to break off the engagement.

A mere daughter of a bastard, yet she still dreams of becoming the young lady of a marquis's mansion, she is too greedy."

"Alright, there's nothing to be afraid of about a woman in the harem. The most urgent task is to appease the Marquis of Jingyuan's mansion."

Xuanping Hou Zhao Rang didn't want to listen to her chattering and interrupted her coldly.

At this time, the housekeeper of the mansion came hurriedly, "My Lord, Madam, Marquis Jingyuan and his wife are here, waiting in the front hall."

Zhao Rang and Madam Zhao immediately looked at each other and then hurried to the front hall.

.........

As night fell, Lin Shuyue, who had just returned from the dental clinic, had dinner and then sat on a stone bench under the peach tree in the yard to listen to Qingsheng talk about what he had heard in the afternoon.

“It is said that Lord Jingyuan and his wife stayed in the residence of Marquis Xuanping for a long time, and when they saw them off, both of them looked unhappy.

What's even more bizarre is that just as Lord Jingyuan and his wife returned home, the mansion announced to the public that the marriage between the eldest daughter of Lord Jingyuan and the eldest son of Lord Xuanping had been called off.

Not only that, Marquis Jingyuan also sent someone to send the betrothal gifts that had been sent by Marquis Xuanping’s Mansion back to the Marquis Xuanping’s Mansion with great fanfare.”

Qingsheng took the tea handed to him by Qinghe and drank it in one gulp. Then he slapped his thigh with excitement.

"Miss, the Marquis of Jingyuan Mansion is too ruthless."

"They sent a smart-talking old woman to follow the people carrying the betrothal gifts. When they arrived at the gate of Marquis Xuanping's mansion, the old woman took the initiative to explain to the onlookers.

It is said that the eldest lady in the mansion saw that the eldest son of Marquis Xuanping and the second daughter of the second branch of the Qin family were deeply in love, and she really couldn't bear to be the one to break up the couple, so she took the initiative to cancel the marriage in order to make the eldest son of Marquis Xuanping and the second daughter of the second branch of the Qin family come true.

As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers praised the eldest daughter of Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion for her kindness and generosity.

Upon hearing the news, the wife of Marquis Xuanping rushed to the door with a gloomy face. Unexpectedly, the old woman was also very brave. She pretended not to see the expression on the wife of Marquis Xuanping's face and took the lead to respectfully bow to the wife of Marquis Jingyuan.

Before the wife of Marquis Xuanping could speak, she said in a loud voice: On behalf of Marquis Jingyuan's Mansion, I sincerely wish that the eldest son of Marquis Xuanping's Mansion and the second daughter of the second branch of the Qin family will finally get married, live happily together for a long time, and have a son soon.

I don't know who started it, but the onlookers also congratulated the wife of the Marquis Xuanping. Some brave people even followed suit and asked when the wedding would be held in the Marquis Xuanping's mansion. When the wife of the Marquis Xuanping heard this, her face turned pale and she fainted on the spot.

"Hiss...Is the Jingyuan Marquis' Mansion at odds with the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion?"

The clever Qinghe figured out the trick as soon as she thought about it and couldn't help but take a breath.

Qingzhi is a little younger and has more direct ideas. He thinks that the actions of Jingyuan Marquis Mansion are very satisfying.

Lin Shuyue thought the same way. The eldest son of the Xuanping Marquis's Mansion was engaged to the eldest daughter of the Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion, but he had a secret meeting with another woman and even made a joke of both of them falling into the water. This was simply stomping on the face of the Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion. Where did the eldest daughter of the Jingyuan Marquis's Mansion stand?

These are just the rich and powerful. If it were an ordinary family, I'm afraid the whole family would have come to the door long ago.

However, the most amazing thing was the words of the old woman, which not only minimized the impact of the incident on her young lady, but also made people praise her young lady's character.

In addition, her congratulatory remarks to the wife of Marquis Xuanping were also brilliant, as they directly made the marriage between the eldest son of Marquis Xuanping's mansion and the second daughter of the second branch of the Qin family known to the public.

The wife of Marquis Xuanping fainted at an inopportune time and was unable to refute the old woman's words in time. She was sure that within a day, the news of the upcoming marriage between the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion and the second branch of the Qin family would spread throughout the capital.

Ordinary people might treat this as a joke, or even think that it is just like what is written in the storybooks, where the lovers finally get married and it becomes a beautiful story.

But in the eyes of those dignitaries, the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion was a great disgrace. If the Marquis Xuanping's Mansion recognized the marriage with the second branch of the Qin family, others would laugh at them for being a marquis and marrying a concubine.

If they do not acknowledge this marriage, I am afraid that no noble lady in the Xuanping Marquis Mansion would be interested in him.

As for the second young lady of the second branch of the Qin family, her reputation had already been ruined regardless of whether her marriage with the Marquis Xuanping was successful or not.

"Miss, are we still going to the Qin Mansion tomorrow?" Qinghe looked at Lin Shuyue.

Lin Shuyue thought for a moment and nodded, "Since I've submitted the invitation, I must go."

In the morning, she asked Qingsheng to deliver a visiting card to the Qin Mansion. Now that this has happened, she doesn't know what the situation is at the Qin Mansion.

In addition to a son, Qin's two elder brothers each have a daughter. The two girls are the same age and had performed the ceremony of coming of age at the beginning of the year, which is the right age for marriage.

Although they had already separated from the second and third wives, they were blood relatives after all, and others would inevitably grumble when this happened.
