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

Chapter 568: It’s delicious if you rush to eat it

Although she had already expected that this would not be possible, Hongmian still cried in disappointment.

Her mother sighed, "I'm afraid the matchmaker didn't tie the two of you together. Don't be so focused on him. It's not a bad thing if the marriage doesn't work out. I think his mother is very capable and loves his brother. You are young, and it will take several years before you can get married and have children. This sister-in-law is really frustrated."

Hongmian sobbed, "What do you know?"

Her mother said, "Well, I didn't know. You know best. I told you that day to just make a scene and call it a day. It was clearly his family that was dishonest, but you threw your face on the ground and let them step on it. Now you're fine. Fortunately, not many people know about this, so don't bring it up so much. No one will say anything about you when we discuss marriage in a few years."

"I see. I still have a lot to do. I'll go back to work first."

Hongmian couldn't stand it anymore and just wanted to find a place to heal her wounds.

"Okay, don't be so stubborn. Why did you go to the sewing room to help? Who did you offend? This job is not easy and it's very demanding on your eyes. You are still young and don't know how important it is. You need to take good care of it, otherwise you will go blind when you are old."

Her mother couldn't help but give her a few more instructions.

Hongmian responded perfunctorily, turned around and left, leaving her mother sighing behind her.

Back in the sewing room, Mother Li and Mother Lu were arguing again, arguing over which stitches to use for the edge of the curtain, with such intensity that it seemed as if they were going to punch each other's brains out.

The Hongmian people sat quietly working on the side, feeling as if their hearts were being tormented by a knife.

Pian Huiming came over and said, "I wanted to come earlier, but Gu Shiliu's parents came to pay their respects suddenly, so the lady asked me to wait on them, so I'm late."

In a moment of carelessness, a drop of blood appeared on Hongmian's hand.

These days, her fingers are already covered with needle holes.

My eyes were bloodshot.

Two big dark circles fell onto the cheekbones.

"It's not too late, it's not too late, it's just a small matter," both Mother Li and Mother Lu said with a smile.

Then Mama Li asked, "Why are Gu Shiliu's parents coming to pay their respects at this time? Is there something wrong?"

Although Gu Shiliu was needed, his parents had no status in the mansion.

He suddenly came to pay his respects to his master, so there must be something important.

Hui Ming smiled and said, "It's just for Gu Shiliu's marriage."

"Oh, a man like Gu Shiliu still has to worry about it. I wonder how many girls want to get married." Mother Lu curled her lips and said, "Is he interested in a maid from some courtyard and came to ask Madam for her hand in marriage?"

Hui Ming smiled and said, "It's about the same. Once Gu Shiliu finishes his work, the marriage will probably be finalized."

Everyone was talking about it: "I don't know who it is that has such a good fortune."

Hongmian couldn't sit still any longer, so she stood up and went to urinate.

After leaving the house, I heard Huiming ask, "How is her work here? Is she doing well?"

Hongmian's eyes went dark. She had tried her best to show off in front of the lady. She was about to be on equal footing with Huiming, but for a man, she fell into this situation. Moreover, it was obvious that her future days would be very difficult.

We have to find a way.

Hongye was naturally very happy and thanked Qin Yuan profusely: "It's all thanks to you, Miss, otherwise I don't know what I would have done."

Qin Yuan smiled and shook her head: "You are too concerned. Didn't the Marquis say long ago that this marriage will be smooth sailing? You will have to worry about the rest after you marry her."

Hongye sighed, "Miss, you don't know. I originally thought it was a done deal, but who would have thought that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway through, and the cooked duck almost flew away. I really never dreamed that I would be tricked by Hongmian. These past two days, I have dreamed that Hongmian suddenly changed her face, and Gu Shiliu also said that he and I can't get married."

Qin Yuan asked curiously, "Could it be that you are deeply in love with Gu Shiliu and have decided to marry him?"

Hongye blushed and shook her head. "At first, I thought this marriage was a good one. He and I are in love, and we both happen to be close confidants of the master. Marrying him would help me quickly gain a foothold in the mansion, killing two birds with one stone. But after what Hongmian did, I feel that if Gu Shiliu was snatched away, I would never be able to get over this."

It turns out that it tastes better when you rush to eat it.

Qin Yuan understood.

In his previous life, when Lin Ziqi was serving in Zhejiang, he confronted the seventh son of the governor for a tofu beauty. He worked so hard to get her, swore and vowed countless times, but after she entered his backyard, he didn't care about her for long after the excitement.

When the Tofu Beauty was in favor, even Aunt Yu had to keep her distance.

At the time, Hongye had said that while Tofu Xishi was beautiful, she wasn't considered outstanding in Lord Lin's harem, let alone his wife. Yet, Lord Lin was so captivated by her that he almost put his future on the back burner. He didn't cherish her, despising her vulgarity. It was obvious that she only enjoyed it when someone else was fighting for it, and when no one was fighting for it, she let it go.

Qin Yuan couldn't help but smile.

Hongye said angrily, "I'm telling you my true feelings, why are you laughing?"

Qin Yuan said, "I'm just glad that you don't have to worry about not being able to get over this hurdle in your lifetime. I'm happy for you and smiling for you. If you're not busy right now, go find Eighteen."

Hongye ran out with a smile.

After a while, Gu Shiba arrived, standing outside the beaded curtain with his hands hanging down, and asked, "What do you want, Madam?"

Qin Yuan said, "The Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion has sent us an invitation, saying that they're hosting a banquet for Madam You's birthday in a few days. Ask someone to find out what they're planning for the birthday banquet. Why do they want to hold it a few days before the Queen Mother's birthday? And who are they inviting? The sooner the better."

Gu Shiba agreed and said, "I will immediately ask someone to tell you if Madam has any other instructions."

Qin Yuan thought for a moment and said, "Ask about the background of the martial arts master that Sister Cheng's family hired for Brother Cheng. Find out who he often associates with and whether any of them are from the Yelu clan. Be careful when investigating and don't alert anyone."

Gu Shiba was shocked when he heard this: "...this...this...I'll do it right away. Madam, you're suspicious..."

Qin Yuan said, "I have my reasons for being suspicious. Just go ahead and do it. If the Marquis asks, you don't have to hide it." Gu Shiba finally said, "Yes, I will do it right away."

After leaving the hospital, Gu Shibafang let out a heavy sigh. He knew how powerful Qin Yuan was, and for that reason, he understood the weight of those words.

If the martial arts master beside Cheng Ge'er has any dealings with the Yelu clan, then it's no wonder that they have been making no progress with the fake Yang woman recently.

Is it true that the Zhao family is colluding with the Yelu family?

What was Zhao thinking? Was it for the future of these two children? But everyone knew that Lord Gu was a man of loyalty and loyalty. As long as these two children grew up peacefully, everything would be arranged for them.

This only shows that the Zhao family has great ambitions.

Thinking about Pang Hai's unknown background, Gu Shiba felt very unwell.
