The Hickey of the Demon Lord: The Substitute Princess

Chapter 222

Sure enough, under the wooden box was a delicate golden toad with a copper coin in its mouth, which looked very pleasing.

"Old man, you don't have to be so polite. It's my luck to learn something in the Majiayao factory. Even if you want to give a gift, I should give it to you." Su Min's eyes flashed, but he didn't reveal any more. Emotions, like the golden toad, couldn't arouse her interest at all.

Master Ma knew that the power of the Su family was comparable to that of the Ma family. Su Min, who had lived in a pile of gold and silver since he was a child, of course would not be like a shallow city dweller, whose eyes glowed when he saw gold.He calmed down and continued talking, trying to persuade Su Min to accept it.

"Young master, please accept it. Since we have cooperated, we will make a fortune together in the future. This is not money, it's just a small gift to win the prize."

Su Min frowned, and the picturesque eyebrows felt a little burdened, and the doubts in his heart became heavier: "The old man asked me to come to discuss the matter, is it just to give me this generous dividend?"

"Little Master's eyes are really sharp. What I want to talk about today is not those in the mall, so please forgive me if I bother you." Master Ma's smile became slightly awkward.

At that moment, she felt that the current atmosphere was a little strange.

She didn't show it on her face, her expression was calm and her eyes were not happy. "Don't dare, please say. If I can help the old man in private, I will be happy to do it."

"I have inquired that Ms. Su is seventeen years old, but she has no intention of getting married. Originally, this matter should be discussed at the Su family, but considering that Master Su is no longer alive, Ms. Su personally handles all matters of the Su family. As the host, it's better to tell Miss Su personally." After a brief silence, Master Ma was finally willing to speak out about the important matter on his mind, and his expression became serious.

In Su Min's heart, a feeling of uneasiness suddenly flashed, and soon disappeared. "What's up."

A touch of sadness covered Master Ma's eyes, and when he talked about his son, his expression became different from usual. "I only have one only son, who is old and only 20 years old. Although he has no talent, his heart is not bad, so he said he likes Ms. Su. I am not afraid that Ms. Su will think this request is too abrupt. I wonder if you would like to think about it." , be my Ma family's daughter-in-law."

Su Min just listened quietly, without speaking.

Master Ma stood up suddenly, with a three-point excited expression, and anxious tone: "I know that Miss Su is not a snobbish and greedy woman, and I also think that you are knowledgeable, graceful, generous, thoughtful and decent, and I am very satisfied with the candidate. These days when you left the capital, my son doesn't think about tea and food, he really has lovesickness, I really can't see it, so."

Su Min smiled knowingly, speaking calmly and firmly. "I'm so sorry, I already have a man I like."

"What?" Master Ma opened his mouth wide, and his face suddenly became ugly. He felt that the answer was unexpected and disappointing.

More like, a huge blow like a bolt from the blue.

Su Min just smiled faintly, but didn't say much.

Thinking about it carefully, Master Ma thought she was just perfunctory, and asked in a hurry. "I would like to ask, as far as I know, Miss Su has never been in a sedan chair and married into any family, so that person is just Miss Su's favorite object, and there has never been any agreement."

Su Min's understatement and his steady demeanor made it hard to doubt, but he couldn't imagine that such direct words came from this seemingly graceful and reserved girl. "Even if there is no official marriage, and I am not officially married, I can still be like a husband and wife."

She gave him enough hints, and she kept room in order not to embarrass each other.

Master Ma's eyes sank, and he didn't give up so easily. "My son seldom falls in love with any young lady. He is very lonely, and I also hope that someone can accompany him. This time, he is serious. Miss Su, don't have any prejudice against him, can't you continue to think about it? "

"If it's for this matter, I'm not qualified to agree." Su Min stopped being indirect, and responded directly, still looking gentle and decent, but her tone became sharp, without leaving any room for it.

Hearing this, Master Ma was a little embarrassed, but he still acted patiently as a lobbyist. "Miss Su, although you have a good eye in shopping malls, it's hard to tell when it comes to people, let alone men. Dare I ask, is that man compatible with the Su family? Are the two families well-matched?"

"It's the wrong door, the wrong household." Su Min smiled lightly. According to the harsh rules, her status, even if she is the daughter of a wealthy businessman, is just a businessman, and she cannot climb up the royal family.

Master Ma thought of another situation, his emotions were much more intense, and he completely disagreed. "My guess is indeed correct, Miss Su. From my experience, there are indeed many men in this world who covet Miss Su and want to marry you, but they may be interested in the background of the Su family. How can such a man be reliable? And I Dare to pat my chest and assure you that if we marry the Ma family, we are only interested in Miss Su's character, and we are definitely not greedy for money."

"What the old man means is that the Ma family and the Su family are in the same family, and this is the only way to get married." Su Min's smile slowly faded from her face, and her impatience had already begun to germinate in her heart.

When she was here, the person she suddenly thought of was Nangong Zheng.

I want to leave immediately, end the fruitless conversation, and go back to the palace to see him.

Wanting to see him was so urgent, everything happened suddenly, and she couldn't get to the bottom of it.

He put forward a more attractive condition: "At least my son and I will not have any unreasonable thoughts about the Su family's property. If the Su family is in need, the Ma family will not hesitate to lend a helping hand."

"Thank you, old man, for your kindness. I don't have the idea of ​​marrying a rich family." Su Min's voice revealed reason, without any wavering.

"Miss Su, I ask you to think carefully again. After three days, no, I can reply after one day." Master Ma's eyes were almost on fire. He was looking forward to a turnaround for this matter.

If the Ma family can have a daughter-in-law like Su Min, then it will be complete.

Su Min stood up and said in a deep voice. "I can answer your question without thinking about it. If I hesitate, I can't forgive my wavering."

"It seems that there is no room for discussion." Master Ma had no choice but to smile wryly, and was silent for a while, as if he was in deep thought.

Su Min's answer was impeccable, very thoughtful, not at all cramped, and with ease. "It's the same as the rules in the mall. There is no righteousness in business. If the Ma family wants to break off the alliance because of my ignorance, I will accept it. If the Ma family wants to maintain their relationship with the Su family, then I am very happy." welcome."

Master Ma was in a hurry to defend, he was still thinking of delaying the attack, and he must not give up like this, after all, he had never seen such a suitable and deep favorite woman for his son in a long time, so he could take it step by step, step by step.

"Ah, of course I won't turn my face just because I can't get married. I'm not that kind of person. I can only say that there is no fate, and that's the only way to go. After talking so much, the dishes are going to be cold. After finishing the meal I'll send someone to take the lady back to the branch, this is not an excessive request."

"Okay, I hope this time I can make a lot of money for the Ma family." Su Min smiled and hurriedly ended the conversation, only to see Master Ma pour a glass of wine and greet him with a smile.

"No, our two families are advancing and retreating together. I will toast to Miss first."

"How can I afford it, I'd better offer you a cup first." Su Min returned a cup, thinking that although Master Ma made this ruthless request, the cooperation between the two parties is imperative, after all, the Ma family is Master Ma, the largest porcelain dealer in the capital, is so relieved, so she naturally has no reason to make a big fuss and magnify small things.

After lunch at Ma's house, Master Ma invited a maid to accompany Su Min, and poured a cup of tea. After drinking the tea, Su Min saw the manager whisper something into Master Ma's ear, as if something serious happened, his face changed , declined a few words and left, and asked the maid to take Su Min to the newly built garden.

It was a garden that was as exquisite as Suzhou and Hangzhou gardens. After walking around twice, Su Min felt footsteps not far behind her, but every time she turned around, she couldn't see anyone.

"Miss, what are you looking at? Did you leave something behind? Do you want the servant to go back and look for it for you?"

The maid is very enthusiastic.

"It's nothing." The corners of Su Min's mouth were raised, but there was not much smile from the heart, and she suddenly felt a chill.

like.

Someone was watching her, following her.

This feeling seems to have appeared before, not unfamiliar, very familiar.

"Miss, please sit down for a while, this servant is going to get some tea."

In broad daylight, she shouldn't feel afraid, not to mention that the newly built garden is so beautiful that there shouldn't be any dark corners.

It just felt weird all of a sudden.

Being left alone, Su Min walked across the Quqiao quietly, but suddenly a very soft voice came from behind, it sounded very strange, it was a very weak voice, not full of energy.

"Su Min."

She turned around, but before she could see the other person's face clearly, a layer of black mist suddenly appeared in front of her eyes.

Then, she fell to the ground.

The emerald jade bracelet on the wrist was smashed into pieces.

After a day.

At night, the moon is already hanging in the sky, and the warm orange color seems to be enough to dispel the chill in everyone's heart.

she woke up.

Drowsy, looking at the scene in front of him, this seems to be a cellar.

The cellar, which is used for all the dilapidated furniture in this world, is cold and damp, except for a lantern hanging on the wall and a quilt under her, there are no other decorations.

And she, like goods, was forced to be placed in this deserted basement.
