The wealthy tycoon wants to be the white moonlight of the little village girl

Late that night, after Deng Ziyun packed a few clothes and jewelry, she originally planned to escape to the Shen family and stay there for a few days when no one was around.

Unexpectedly, when she quietly opened the door, she found two maids guarding the door!

She was so scared that she quickly closed the door again. After thinking for a while, she decided to escape during the chaos.

She poured the hair oil on the mirror cover and the musical instrument cover, then lit them with a candle, and the fire quickly spread!

Pearl and Agate, who were dozing off outside the door, were awakened by the thick smoke and ran to the upper room in panic to report the news!

When Deng Ziyun wanted to escape, it was too late and she was quickly driven back by the thick smoke.

In desperation, she had to find a place with less smoke, lie down, cover her mouth and nose with a wet towel and wait for someone to rescue her...

As a result, the fire burned more and more fiercely. The servants and guards came in and could not see or speak. They shouted twice and then retreated.

At this point, Deng Ziyun regretted her rash thinking...

Not only did he fail to escape, but he ended up dying in the fire!

Just when she was filled with regret, Zhao Cheng risked his life to rush in, which finally made her feel at ease!

And she swore secretly in her heart: "As long as I can get out alive today, I will convince my parents to let me marry Brother Zhao no matter what!"

……

More than ten days later, when Deng Ziyun was finally out of danger, she asked Mrs. Deng that she wanted to go see Zhao Cheng.

But Mrs. Deng avoided the question and didn't respond directly...

Deng Ziyun immediately became suspicious and wondered if Brother Zhao was in danger.

She said in a hoarse voice: "Mom, why don't you let me go see Brother Zhao, what happened to him?"

Mrs. Deng hesitated for a long time, then sighed and said, "He has a serious fever...Mr. Jiang has taken him away..."

"Ah?" Deng Ziyun's eyes widened in shock, "Why? He was injured because he was trying to save me, why should we send him back to Jiang's house?"

Mrs. Deng said helplessly, "It's not that your father and I were unwilling to take him in, but he insisted on asking..."

Deng Ziyun shouted in a hoarse voice with anger: "I don't believe it! I don't believe it! You must be afraid that he would use this to blackmail our family, so you found an excuse to send him away! I heard from the maids that Dad promised that whoever could rescue me would be given half of the family property! You must have gone back on your word, so you found a way to force him away!"

Mrs. Deng looked at her seriously and said, "Ah Zi, although our family is not a famous family, it is also a prominent family. How could we do such a despicable thing! He really insisted on asking for it, and he didn't want any money in return. He even left a letter for you before leaving!"

Deng Ziyun was stunned for a while, then suddenly asked anxiously: "Where's the letter? Give it to me quickly!"

Mrs. Deng walked to the dressing table, opened the drawer, took out a letter and handed it to her.

Deng Ziyun couldn't wait to take out the letter and take a look. There was only a short line of words on it: Miss Deng: Take care, don't worry!

Deng Ziyun looked at these words again and again, tears gradually falling and wetting the words, she leaned on the quilt and cried bitterly...

Mrs. Deng couldn't help but feel relieved when she saw this, and then she also wiped away her tears...

In fact, this is already the best ending. The guard Zhao was seriously injured and is no longer as handsome as before.

Although Master Deng had promised to give half of his family property to whoever rescued Ah Zi, Master Deng, who was always open-minded and charitable, hesitated when he thought about his beautiful daughter having to spend the rest of her life with a half-disabled ugly guy...

However, all the servants present heard what he said, and he could not go back on his word, so he had to discuss the marriage with Zhao Cheng with trepidation.

What Mr. Deng never expected was that Zhao Cheng not only rejected the proposal to share half of the Deng family's property, he even rejected the request to marry into the Deng family!

He endured the pain and said: "It is my responsibility to protect Miss Deng... My mission has been completed... Send me back to the Jiang residence..."

Mr. Deng had no choice but to go to the Jiang residence in person to discuss the matter with Jiang Yaonian.

Finally, the injured Zhao Cheng was sent back. Mr. Deng gave him generous gifts and a large silver note, and promised that the Deng family would pay for his medical expenses in the future.

Jiang Yaonian said calmly: "Master Deng, you don't have to be polite. I sent Zhao Cheng to protect your beloved. I will be responsible for any injuries. Please take back the banknotes and gifts..."

Master Deng said very embarrassedly: "Mr. Jiang's words really make me feel ashamed... Please give me some face and accept the gifts and banknotes, otherwise the Deng family will not be able to gain a foothold in the capital..."

Jiang Yaonian pondered for a moment and said calmly, "Master Deng, I heard that your daughter likes Zhao Cheng very much, but you don't agree with this marriage, right?"

Mr. Deng was startled, then he looked up and found Jiang Yaonian looking straight at him...

He smiled awkwardly and said, "That's true... Ah Zi is young and ignorant. It's our fault for not disciplining her well. I hope Guard Zhao will forgive her..."

Jiang Yaonian said calmly: "Why don't you agree to this marriage?"

After Mr. Deng laughed dryly twice, he said awkwardly, "Well... Ah Zi was originally going to enter the palace to be selected. We only have this one daughter, so naturally we hope that she can marry well and bring honor to the family... Although Guard Zhao is handsome and has great martial arts skills, he is not our ideal son-in-law. I hope Mr. Jiang will forgive me!"

Jiang Yaonian interrupted him calmly, "You may not know that Zhao Cheng is not from a poor family. The Zhao family is also a wealthy business in the capital. He was sent to learn martial arts since he was a child and then came to the Jiang Mansion to do business. If he also likes your daughter, I hope Master Deng will make this marriage come true!"

……

In the blink of an eye, it was Mid-Autumn Festival.

In the evening, a bright moon rises quietly from the east mountain.

There was a lively and cheerful scene in the Jiang Mansion. Moon cakes, fruits and incense were set out in the courtyard of the upper house, and incense burners were burning. The maids and old women gathered around Old Madam Jiang and chatted and laughed, looking very happy.

Liu Dongzhi smiled and said, "Aunt, in previous years, my cousin always celebrated the festival with you. Why didn't I see him today?"

Madam Jiang said lovingly, "He's already married this year, so I agreed to his wish to spend the holiday alone with your cousin's wife at Lin Wanting."

Liu Dongzhi said coquettishly, "It's more fun when we are all together! It's boring for two people to be alone. I'll go call them over!"

Madam Jiang hurriedly stopped them and said, "Forget it! Let the young couple enjoy the moon together alone. I believe Nian'er has something to say to Qinghe. Don't bother them. Just ask the maid to bring some of these fresh fruits to them later."

Liu Dongzhi could only agree verbally and sat down again, but in her heart she was indignant and said, "Humph, ever since that little village girl used her charm to serve my cousin once, my cousin has become more and more obsessed with her! He even wants to be alone with her on such an important reunion day. I heard that he also wants to propose marriage for the injured guard Zhao. I'm sure he did this to completely cut off my cousin's wife's thoughts!"
