Being soft does not mean being stupid. His father in his previous life was the same. When they thought it was a secret, the mother and daughter of the Yu family already knew it. Zhen Yuan loved the Yu family and the children she had. However, she, the daughter who lost her mother at a young age, had always been dispensable. Perhaps in his eyes, she was more like a child of the Su family.

"You are father's daughter, father...how could father not protect you?" Zhen Yuan said.

People always put profit first and weigh the pros and cons. If my father was willing to protect my mother, she would not have died young.

Yu's tactics were so clever that my mother was poisoned and could no longer have children, but all of them were directed at another concubine. She killed the concubine and severely damaged my mother.

After my mother died of depression due to this, Yu was made the legitimate wife.

She would never believe that there were no tricks used by the Yu family here.

Zhen Su said: "I can guess what Yu said to my father. She must have avoided the important point and didn't mention the embarrassing incident of the eldest lady or the fact that I stole the limelight at the event. She only said that the engagement was lost.

Father, the Marquis Leda’s Mansion has investigated our family affairs better than we do. Put yourself in Marquis Leda’s shoes. If you were Marquis Leda, would you marry Miss Zhen or Miss Su?

If we were in the opposite position, I would choose Miss Su San. Miss Su San's mother is from an aristocratic family, and her family is also from an aristocratic family. Miss Zhen Da is better in terms of appearance, family background, manners, and conversation. "

Think about it, weighing the pros and cons, you think the Rong family is stupid, but the Zhen family's trivial matters have already been clearly understood by them.

Zhen Yuan felt that his face was exposed by his daughter, and he was quite embarrassed, "You are boosting others' ambitions and destroying your own prestige."

It is not a good mind to be unable to see your own weaknesses and always blame others.

Zhen Su did not argue any further, as her feelings for her father were never deep.

When Zhen Yuan finished speaking, he had already walked away.

Yu and Zhen Zhen planned to kill Zhen Su and seize the marriage contract, but he, the head of the family, was completely unaware of it, so Zhen Su decisively let go and gave the marriage certificate to the Su family.

Zhen Rong bowed and said, "Second sister, it's getting dark. I'm going back to my grandmother."

"On the first day of next month, I will take you to Mingzhu Garden. You should practice calligraphy more recently." Zhen Su said.

Zhen Rong immediately said happily: "Second sister, you are so kind! Then I will go back."

She brought her eldest maid Chunying with her.

Earlier, this girl was called Chunliu. Yesterday, she found out that her second sister's maid was Chunyan. Zhen Rong changed her maid's name so that she and her second sister were sisters, and the two maids' names were similar.

Chunyan supported Aunt Meng, and Zhen Su said to Chunyan, "Hire a carriage and take the nurse to the clinic to have a look. My father must have been seriously injured by that kick."

"Miss, I... I'm fine." Aunt Meng said.

"Your face has turned pale from the pain, how can you be alright? Go check it out, but don't let it cause any root of illness. Let Chunyan and I rest assured, pack some clothes and change of clothes, and you'll stay at the clinic today."

Zhen Su went back upstairs and took out a ten-liang silver note and stuffed it into Chunyan's pocket.

Chunyan helped Aunt Meng out.

There were two maids in Zhen Su's courtyard. They closed the gate early and had a simple evening meal. Tingyu Pavilion became increasingly quiet. Zhen Su changed into a neat black and gray short outfit, tied his clothes and pants tightly, and climbed over the courtyard wall.

*

Small ancestral hall.

Zhen Yuan left Tingyu Pavilion with a rage in his heart. The more he thought about it, the annoyed he became. He wanted to scold Zhen Su, but instead, Zhen Su scolded him instead, making him even angrier.

Zhen Zhen did not copy the "Women's Virtues", but wrapped herself in a cloak and slept on the small couch. When she felt someone was around, she saw Zhen Yuan standing in front of her with an angry face, "You shameless thing, you said that Prince Rong is yours, the engagement is yours, and the Prince's wife is yours. Do you still want to get married?"

When Zhen Zhen heard this, she called out "Daddy", knelt on the ground, hugged Zhen Yuan and said, "Father, you said that the marriage contract belongs to our family, can you help me get it? The marriage certificate is not in my second sister's hands, father..."

This is an admission that she wanted to force the engagement. How did she come up with this idea?

Zhen Yuan raised his leg and kicked Zhen Zhen in the stomach, "Shameless thing! You didn't discuss marriage for the past two years, but you have been planning to steal someone else's marriage contract?"

The pain was excruciating, but it was not as painful as knowing today that Rong Wei was going to marry Miss Su San. At that moment, she felt like she was going to die, suddenly falling into hell, and never seeing the light again.

Zhen Zhen said: "Miss Su San is not a member of the Zhen family. What good will her father gain if she marries him? Why can't she seize the Zhen family? Zhen Su was raised by the Su family. Is she biased towards the Su family?"

"Shut up! The marriage certificate says 'the daughter of Lord Su's grandson', do you count? Zhen Su is, the Su family girl is, do you have any relationship with Lord Su?"

There was no name on it, but it said "the daughter of Su Gong's grandson". Even if she was forced to marry, she could not marry into the Rong family.

A dark shadow passed by the roof of the ancestral hall, moved aside the glazed tiles, and watched the eldest daughter of the Zhen family hugging Zhen Yuan's legs.

"Daddy, I have fallen in love with Prince Rong Wei for three years, and I don't want to marry anyone else. I like him, and I can do anything for him, Daddy..." Zhen Zhen ignored the stomachache and just hugged Zhen Yuan tightly, begging and crying. She just wanted to marry the man she loved, and any method didn't matter.

Zhen Yuan wanted to break free, but Zhen Zhen had been holding him for too long. "Daddy, I have never begged you since I was a child. You work in the Ministry of Justice and you are naturally smart. Just bring out the evidence of threatening the Rong family, and as long as you help me..."

Zhen Yuan shouted angrily, "Shut up!" How did she know about such a big thing?

A delicate black shadow flashed into the ancestral hall, quickly slipped under the altar, and pulled the table cloth with her hands to hide her figure.

Zhen Zhen said, "Dad, if you don't use evidence, your daughter will. I just want to marry Rong Wei. As long as I can get what I want, I can use any method."

Zhen Yuan raised his hand and slapped her twice. How did Zhen Zhen know about the evidence? What he thought was a secret was discovered by others.

Zhen Zhen's eyes were determined. "In order to marry into the Rong family, I can do anything. Daddy is afraid of offending the Su family. How did Su die? Without your acquiescence, my mother would be angry to death. If Mr. Su knew that Su was angered to death by you and my mother, he would still stand on your side. As long as Daddy can produce evidence that can destroy the Rong family, the Rong family will definitely marry me."

Zhen Yuan slapped her again, but she didn't stop even after being beaten. "You want to die? The evidence has been missing for a long time, and we didn't know who did it before, but today your second sister told me something. More than two years ago, when Old Master Su left Beijing, the Rong family kept an eye on the Zhen Mansion and your second sister for more than two years in order to find out what kind of person she was.

How many bowls of rice does your sister eat and how many sips of water does she drink in a day? What I did and said, the Rong family knows better than we do. If you dare to threaten the Rong family, I will be chopped into pieces first!"

Zhen Zhen couldn't believe that the evidence that could put the Rong family to death was gone. "How could this happen? How could the evidence disappear?"

"How do you know the evidence?" Zhen Yuan asked.

Zhen Zhen buried her head.

Zhen Yuan shouted angrily: "Say——"

"Yes... Mother told me."
