Chapter 65

Rong Lanxue looked at her sideways and smiled slightly: "Since you know this truth, I won't say anything about you."

Sister Xiang laughed loudly: "Then you were rude to Eldest Sister just now, isn't it the same as hurting others and benefiting yourself?"

Sister Jiang's face turned red, and she was about to rush forward again, scaring Yupan to step forward and stop her firmly.

Rong Lanxue had no choice but to break the words and said: "Third sister, fifth sister, no matter how you treat me, you will only hurt yourself. To put it bluntly, my marriage with the third son of the clan is already a certainty." It doesn't matter if you are rude to me or provocative, besides ruining your own reputation and preventing you from getting married, what good is there? If you still can't figure it out, then just keep making trouble. After a few days, I will go out in a good manner, leaving you in Linjiang County because of your bad temper and can't get married."

"What are you marrying? You are so shameless..." Sister Jiang muttered, but she started crying again, "Aren't you just relying on talking about a good marriage, are you proud of yourself? What is there to be proud of? Marriage, it was originally me—”

Before she could finish speaking, she asked Sister Xiang to cover her mouth. Sister Xiang called Yupan to help while scolding her: "Third Sister, you said you are ignorant, but you really are ignorant. You are thinking too much." It's all right if you don't get married with a reputation, but don't hurt me! You have to talk nonsense, go back to your aunt, don't go crazy here, you don't know, you think you have private affairs with the third son of the same clan, Could it be that you want to be a concubine with him?"

Sister Jiang's eyes widened, and she whimpered, "Why do I want to be his concubine?"

Sister Xiang laughed: "Girls who behave badly can't just be concubines with others?"

Sister Jiang was out of breath and kicked her, and the two had another quarrel.Rong Lanxue couldn't do it, so she had to have someone forcefully drag Sister Jiang out of the house, take a carriage to the second gate, and send her back to Rong's residence.

Seeing off Sister Jiang, Rong Lanxue wanted to put Sister Xiang into another carriage, but Sister Xiang refused to leave, saying: "Big Sister, you were wrong just now, I came today, did you I'm rude to you, and I'm not being rude, even if I'm having trouble with Sister Jiang, she was the one who provoked it first."

Rong Lanxue smiled and said, "Then what are you here for?"

Sister Xiang dragged Rong Lanxue into the room, but she didn't speak, only looked left and right.

Rong Lanxue retreated to the left and right, and said, "Speak."

Sister Xiang then said mysteriously: "Eldest sister, do you know why the wife is in such a hurry to marry you off?"

"Why?" I have to admit that Rong Lanxue was very interested in this question, so even though she knew that Sister Xiang probably had no good intentions, she couldn't help asking.

Sister Xiang lowered her voice extremely low: "I heard that because the second sister has a hidden disease and doesn't have much life expectancy, that's why I was in a hurry to marry her off."

It's not that Rong Lanxue hasn't guessed about this, but she is extremely skeptical: "It's not the first time we've met Sister Qing, so why does she look sick? Don't talk nonsense."

Sister Xiang said, "If you can easily see it, how can it be called a hidden disease?"

Rong Lanxue thinks about it too, otherwise, how can he explain Jiang's purpose in rushing to marry her and go out?I just don't know if the Li family knows about this.Rong Lanxue thought about it, and said, "Even if Sister Qing has a hidden disease, so what, let's do what we should."

"How can it be the same!" Sister Xiang was in a hurry, "Look at the kind of families that my wife picked for you because she was in a hurry, and she didn't plan for you at all."

"Why didn't you plan for me?" Rong Lanxue looked at Sister Xiang meaningfully, "The Zong family is right with our Rong family, and Mr. Zong San is such a talent, what am I not satisfied with?" If Zong Yunlong is not good How could you and sister Jiang go to the gate of Zhiyuan today?
Sister Xiang heard what Rong Lanxue meant, and her face flushed, but she didn't stop there, but continued: "Big sister, I just heard someone say that I'm afraid you will suffer in the future, so I just ran away Let me tell you, I have good intentions, so don't misunderstand me——I heard that the third son of Zong, Zong Yunlong, has a large family, and he is intriguing and deceitful. Yes, he is young and has not yet married, and he already has several common rooms in the house, and most of these common rooms are gifted by elders, let alone selling them, even if they are sold, they cannot be bought."

Is this hinting at her in a targeted manner? It seems that what she said at the beginning, no matter who is willing to get rid of the housemate for her, she will marry, has spread.At least, it has reached Sister Xiang's ears.

Rong Lanxue stood solemnly, looked at Sister Xiang seriously and said, "Fifth Sister, to tell you the truth, I had some doubts about marrying Mr. Zongsan in a hurry, but after hearing what you said, I think I must marry." .”

Sister Xiang was stunned: "Why? Isn't Big Sister the one who hates Tongfang the most?"

Rong Lanxue put on a look of hell who will go to hell if I don't, and said angrily: "I heard that the wedding date has already been set, and my wife told me to go to the mansion tomorrow, and it's too late to retire. Our family must have a wedding." A sister marrying the third son of Zong, if he is as unbearable as you said, as the eldest daughter, if I don’t take the lead, should I push the other sisters into the fire pit?”

"Big Sister..." Sister Xiang never thought that Rong Lanxue would understand her words like this. She wanted to cry for a while, but her breath was stuck in her throat, and she couldn't get up or down.

Rong Lanxue held her hand tightly, her face full of gratitude: "Fifth sister, thank you very much, if I hadn't reminded you, I would have resigned rashly, wouldn't I have harmed my sisters? This is what makes me a sister How can my conscience be at peace?" As she said that, she called Yupan: "Bring me the bracelet that my wife gave me earlier, and I want to give it to Fifth Sister."

Sister Xiang was on the verge of crying, how could she have the heart to ask for the bracelet Jiang Shi gave Rong Lanxue, it was Jiang Shi's makeup for Rong Lanxue, she took it and saw it every day, it would only be more embarrassing panic.So without waiting for Yupan to turn around, Sister Xiang stopped her, and said to Rong Lanxue: "Big sister, I'm here to persuade you not to marry. In fact, we don't need to marry this relative." Lan Xue resigned, and she was sure of the next thing.

Rong Lanxue was not fooled by her, and said righteously: "The marriage is already booked, how can I cancel it at will, I still want to be famous! Besides, it is a good thing for us to get married with the Zong family, don't think about yourself , we should also think about father's business, don't you think? We have been raised by the mansion for so many years, and when we should repay, we should repay..."

Sister Xiang didn't take it seriously, she thought to herself, it's not like you haven't divorced before, now you know about reputation?As for getting married with the clan, as long as it's a girl from Rong's mansion, it doesn't have to be you...

Rong Lanxue saw that she was crying, so she stopped talking, and talked to her about the truth, while winking with Yupan.Yupan stepped forward and said, "Miss, Tailor Wang from Qianjie is here and wants to measure Missy. I'm going to Guangzhou soon. If you don't hurry up, it will be too late."

Rong Lanxue immediately put on a guilty expression, and Sister Xiang had no choice but to leave.

As soon as Sister Xiang left, Yupan laughed: "Miss, when we were together, we still thought Mr. Zong San was good or bad. He was picked because there was no better candidate, but I didn't expect He is actually a favorite, even though Third Miss and Fifth Miss know that you are engaged, they will never forget him."

But Rong Lanxue sighed, and said: "Sister Jiang has a straight temper, and everything she says is angry, but that's all. Sister Xiang's words are not necessarily false. When I marry, the sky is high and the water is far away. Without a supportive person by my side, life is still so difficult. So sister Xiang is right, this is indeed not a good relationship."

Yupan was saddened by what she said for a while, then he raised his head to comfort her and said, "Miss, what are you afraid of? Since Mr. Zongsan agreed to your dismissal of Tong Fang, then you can dismiss him when the time comes. If anyone is dissatisfied, call She's going to find Mr. Zongsan."

Rong Lanxue thought for a while, and said: "Although things will not be so simple, but your attitude is right. The so-called road to the bridge is naturally straight. It's not a matter for me to think before and after, and I will go happily." Let’s talk about it after we’re in Guangzhou, no matter how difficult life is, we’ll have it, right? I’ve even sued my biological father, so what’s there to be afraid of?”

"Miss!" Although the jade plate was bought later, he knew something about the situation at that time, and cried out when he heard the words, "That was told by Aunt Ye, and it has nothing to do with Miss. Miss, don't say it again in the future. If you put on a hat of unfilial piety, you will die of injustice."

Yu Pan is right, this is not modern times, unfilial piety is a very serious crime, and it can crush a person for a lifetime.Rong Lanxue took the teaching seriously and thanked Yupan sincerely.

Yupan blushed, waved her hands repeatedly, and went to help Rong Lanxue pack the dowry.

Rong Lanxue's dowry mainly consisted of a set of headgear from the Jiang family, a set of furniture bought for her by the Rong family, and some pots and pans bought for her by the Ye family. And the make-up of the aunts, mainly jewelry and the like-they all said that although it is a distant marriage, there must be some dowry, otherwise the boat will be empty when taking the boat, which is too ugly.

Rong Lanxue had silver in her hands, so she could have freed up her hands to buy some gold and silver utensils, jade decorations, and then put them in the new house, and asked her husband's family to look at them.There are also clothes for the four seasons, rouge and gouache, which should also be fully prepared, so as not to cost the husband's family money.But Rong Lanxue thought to herself that even if the family was extremely rich, even if she exchanged the 2000 taels of silver for a real dowry, she might not be able to win people's eyes, so she might as well take another extreme route - pretending to be poor.When the time comes, write whatever is on the dowry list. As for her bank note, don't write it on it, and don't tell Zong Yunlong for now.

Although she was about to marry him, she didn't know him at all, only that he was a bad-tempered and difficult person.Because of this, the money should not be exposed, otherwise, if the days are difficult and they want to reconcile, it will be difficult to file a dowry lawsuit. It is better to hide it and leave a way out for yourself.In case the husband and wife get divorced and get divorced, she will return to Zhiyuan with the banknotes in her pocket, and she will still eat delicious food and drink spicy food, and her childhood is very comfortable.

The more Rong Lanxue thought about it, the more she felt that this plan was feasible, so she simply made only the clothes that were in season, and now even the Jiang family couldn't stand it anymore, so they sent a big box of Sister Qing's clothes to her as a prestige .

In the process of purchasing the dowry, the aunts of Jiang and Xiang stopped her at Rong's residence, and their words were full of sarcasm.The eldest aunt, the seventh aunt and the eighth aunt once sat in her blue garden and lamented that Zong Yunlong was not the most suitable candidate.Liu Yiniang once ran into her on the road, and when talking about Zong Yunlong's temper, she took pleasure in other's misfortunes.Rong Tiancheng was still angry and didn't see her at all.Mrs. Ye sees her every day, but her eyes are full of tears.

There is also the righteous master Zong Yunlong, who abides by the rules and has never shown up again. Lianxiang and Yupan lamented that they are people who have no emotional foundation. It's not impossible to come and see me.
