My younger sister insisted on marrying me and made me the Marquis' wife.

Chapter 2 What are you and my sister doing?

When Qin Yuan saw that his father looked thoughtful, he knew that he was moved.

As expected, my father made the decision: "We will open the ancestral hall tomorrow and register Yuan'er under Madam's name. I will then sacrifice my old face and discuss it with the Gu family."

The stepmother looked disapproving, but she also knew that he was reluctant to let Marquis Dingbei have such a good marriage, so she resisted the urge to spoil his fun.

Qin Heng uttered a disdainful "tsk".

Qin Yuan ignored him, took her maids and left, returning to her own courtyard.

Hongye said angrily, "Your Excellency is so biased. Can't you marry the Second Miss off to a distant place? Why do you have to ruin the Miss's marriage?"

Cui Ming was very worried: "Miss, you have spent so much time on Mr. Lin, but it's all in vain. I don't know who the matchmaker has tied the red string for you."

Qin Yuan slowly washed off the white powder on her face, revealing a beautiful face.

I haven't seen myself look so good in a long time.

If I could start over again in this life, I would let Qin Wan live this busy and frustrating life.

She snorted slowly, "On Marquis Dingbei."

The two maids didn't dare to believe it.

Gu Jinghui, Marquis of Dingbei, had made many military achievements and was favored by the emperor. The reason he fell in love with Qin Wan was because Old Madam Gu felt that the Gu family had been fighting on the battlefield for generations and their life was too hard, so she wanted to find a daughter from a scholarly family to change their family's situation.

The second daughter, Qin Wan, was a legitimate daughter. Her biological mother, Cui, was from a branch of the Qinghe Cui family. Her father was the chief academic officer of the Imperial College and had many students under his tutelage. Although the two families were very different in status, the marriage was arranged.

The biological mother of the eldest daughter Qin Yuan, Chen, was a concubine. Her ancestor was an imperial physician in the Imperial Medical Bureau. She was demoted to a commoner because of a crime. Chen's dowry was meager, and there was nothing left when it was passed down to her.

No matter how you look at it, Marquis Dingbei will not arrange a marriage with the eldest lady.

Qin Yuan calmly eats when it’s time to eat and sleeps when it’s time to sleep.

Hongye and Luming were very worried and were asking around for news. Qin Yuan saw it but ignored them.

The next day, Qin Yuan was listed in the family tree under the name of her stepmother, Cui.

Lin Ziqi came to cancel the engagement letter, and then exchanged tokens with Qin Wan.

Qin Yuan avoided suspicion and did not go to the front hall. She just rested in the pavilion with a round fan in her hand.

Land in the capital is very expensive, and the Qin Mansion is not big, so they can only build a temple in a snail shell. Qin Yuan doesn't want to stay in the small and simple boudoir, so she can only stay in the pavilion to enjoy the fresh air.

Not long after sitting there, Lin Ziqi found her. He spoke tenderly, "I knew you would be here, Yuan'er."

Qin Yuan half covered her face with a round fan, her brows slightly furrowed, as she looked at her husband from her previous life.

Lin Ziqi has not gained weight yet and has a thin face. Perhaps because he came here to get engaged, he wore a newly made green gown, which made him look elegant and handsome.

Qin Yuan said solemnly, "Mr. Lin, what can I do for you?"

Lin Ziqi is already engaged to Qin Wan, so she has to avoid suspicion.

Fortunately, when she was with Lin Ziqi, she was very cautious and only sent some charcoal, soup and snacks. The two of them often met at Qin's house and never exchanged letters. Although she had helped Lin Ziqi copy a few policy articles, she couldn't say anything when they fell into the hands of others.

Seeing Qin Yuan avoiding him, Lin Ziqi stretched out his hand, then retracted it, and sighed, "Yuan'er, I... I had no choice, you, don't blame me."

As a couple for more than ten years, Qin Yuan certainly knew what kind of person Lin Ziqi was.

Qin Wan wanted to marry him, and Lin Ziqi had no choice but to agree. After all, Qin Wan was the legitimate daughter, and the Qinghe Cui family was an aristocratic family with a strong financial background.

The reason she was able to get close to him and get engaged to him was because Qin Wan looked down on him.

Otherwise, her stepmother would not allow her to make careful plans for herself.

Qin Yuan whispered through the round fan, "Mr. Lin, please be careful with your words. You are my brother-in-law now, so let's not talk about the past."

She wanted to leave, but was stopped by Lin Ziqi.

"Mr. Lin, please respect yourself."

Qin Yuan wanted to leave, but Qin Wan hurried in with an unhappy look on her face, and said in a sarcastic tone: "So you are here, sister. I wonder what you and Brother Lin are talking about. Can I listen?" As she spoke, she pulled Lin Ziqi's sleeve with one hand.

Qin Yuan paused, put down the round fan in her hand, revealed a charming face, and smiled softly: "Sister, what are you worried about? It's yours and no one can take it away. Master Lin just apologized to me. He is now my brother-in-law. I am also an educated woman who knows etiquette, morality, and shame. How can I steal my brother-in-law?"

Qin Wan, who had snatched her brother-in-law away, was so ashamed and angry that she couldn't speak.

"I won't bother you two any more. Goodbye."

Qin Yuan walked away.

Behind her, Lin Ziqi's gaze followed her like a shadow, making her feel very uncomfortable.

Then, Qin Wan said in a sweet voice, "Brother Lin, I am going to marry into the Dingbei Marquis's Mansion. I don't care about you or me anymore. I am the only one who is sincere to Brother Lin. I don't want such a good marriage, but I must marry you."

very good!

Qin Yuan clenched the round fan in her hand.

Qin Wan fell into the water yesterday, and it turned out that she had discussed it with Lin Ziqi in advance.

Qin Wan is such a vicious fool.

In order to exchange marriage with her, he completely disregarded his own reputation and that of the Qin family, and he will suffer a lot in the future.

Watching Qin Yuan's graceful figure disappear at the second gate, Lin Ziqi felt lost. He lowered his head and asked Lu Wan, "Is your sister going to marry into the Dingbei Marquis's Mansion?"

Qin Wan said confidently, "If I don't marry into Dingbei Marquis's mansion, then naturally my sister will marry into it."

Lin Ziqi didn't know what he felt, so he smiled and said, "Cousin Dingbei is determined to marry the daughter of the Qin family? Qin Yuan's status is different from yours."

These words easily made Qin Wan happy. The slight worry she had before disappeared. She smiled sweetly and said, "My mother feels guilty about her because of us. She is afraid that she will have trouble getting married in the future, so she has decided to recognize her as her legitimate daughter."

"Mrs. Qin is really kindhearted. You can treat your sister like this. I think you will be a generous and good wife in the future."

"Of course, Brother Lin, you are going to do great things, so I will follow your lead."

Lin Ziqi smiled happily.

Although he didn't understand why Qin Wan, who had always been so arrogant, suddenly fell in love with him and spoke sweetly to him, this was indeed an excellent marriage.

After a few days, Qin Yuan's marriage was settled. Just as Qin Wan said, it was to the Dingbei Marquis Mansion.

Hongye urged Qin Yuan to change clothes in surprise and was busy combing her hair.

"I never thought that Miss would be so blessed."

Cui Ming also said: "This time, God is on the young lady's side. Yue Lao must have heard my prayers."

They were happy because they wanted their master to have a good home. Qin Yuan smiled and said, "If you go to the Marquis' Mansion, your income will also increase. Maybe the monthly salary of the Marquis' Mansion will be two taels more than ours."

The two maids were overjoyed and helped Qin Yuan to the front hall.

Seeing her coming, her stepmother Cui came forward and held her hand affectionately, saying, "Yuan'er is really lucky. When you marry, you will be the Marquis's wife. The Marquis is almost a generation older than you, and he will definitely give in to you in everything. You must remember your family in the future."

Qin Yuan just smiled with a red face and said nothing. Her father, who was sitting at the top, also had a red face and was happy to have such a good marriage.

"The letter has been sent to my hometown. The clan leader will change the family tree for you after receiving it."

Once the family tree was changed, she became the real legitimate daughter.

Qin Yuan immediately bowed and said, "Thank you, father, and thank you, mother."

"You are my daughter, so I should consider you more.

"Your dowry will be prepared according to the share of the legitimate daughter, and the dowry left by Aunt Chen will also be handed over to you. Your mother has also prepared a separate share for you."

Qin Jijiu was beaming with joy as he watched his eldest daughter obediently agree to all the requests. He suddenly felt that this marriage was indeed better for his eldest daughter than for his second daughter.
