The general took out a tael of silver and said, "I've booked the private room next to hers. Just serve her a pot of tea. Don't make a fuss."

A private room for two people is against business, but this person is a general and cannot be offended. "We have a lot of private rooms left here."

"Boss, if you don't tell us and we don't tell us, how can the girl know that there is someone next door? Just close the door. If they ask, just say that we have reserved that room a long time ago and you can give her another one."

Is it still possible to operate this way? The shopkeeper thought it made sense. If you don’t do business with people coming to your door, you’re a fool.

The master and his servant went upstairs. The servant directly poured a pot of tea, and the waiter brought two plates of snacks. The private room next door was closed, and one would not have known that there was someone inside unless the door was opened.

Chunyan called out, "Miss, you have sent all the letters to your cousins, but look at the time now. It's been more than half an hour and no one has come. Why don't you make an appointment at any other time? Why not today? And this place is so far from Jinghe that you can't even see the shadow of the dragon boat race."

"Chunyan, we didn't come out to watch the dragon boat race, we came here to do some business. Wait a little longer. If they don't come after a while..."

As we were talking, we heard the waiter outside say enthusiastically, "Young lady, please, this is the room."

Zhen Su took Chunyan out of the door and bowed slightly, "Hello, third cousin!"

Miss Su San was very unhappy and didn't want to come, but her cousin said, "Don't regret it if you don't come, there is something great to discuss." After all, she came to see what great news it was. "Su Su, what are you doing? You don't want to see the rare bustle of Jinghe today, but you asked me to come to this place. This is a place for spring outings and scenery, but you can't watch the dragon boat race."

The Jing River was very lively today, and she wanted to watch the dragon boat race, but she was attracted here by a letter from her cousin.

Zhen Su covered his mouth and coughed lightly.

Chunyan immediately understood and pulled Miss Su San's maid and said, "Sister Chunlan, you came at the right time. Please help me. Our girl saw that I was promised to someone else and wanted to marry me off. Can you take me to the government office to exchange my household registration certificate?"

Miss Su San narrowed her eyes. She thought her cousin was treating Chunyan too well.

Zhen Su gave Chunyan two indentures and wrote two documents for releasing slaves. Chunyan asked, "Miss, who is this Su Zhen? Is there a maid named Su in our house?" But the girl was mysterious and didn't want to elaborate. She only told her to exchange the two copies for documents for the household registration of good citizens.

Zhen Su whispered, "This is great news. Third cousin asked Chunlian to wait outside."

"I want to hear what good news it is. If it's not a good news, I won't forgive you." Miss Su San tapped her forehead coquettishly and left Chunlian waiting outside the door.

Zhen Su poured a cup of tea for Miss Su San and took out a marriage certificate from his sleeve, "Third cousin, take a look!"

Miss Su San took the marriage certificate and jumped up immediately after seeing the words on it. "This is the handwriting of my grandfather and the old Lord of Leda Marquis's mansion. He...he has arranged for you to marry the son of Leda Marquis?"

My grandfather is too partial. He gave such a good marriage to my cousin. He has three granddaughters. The eldest sister is married, so her marriage does not count. So the second sister is still to be married, so she is the one to be married.

But what was the purpose of the cousin looking at the marriage certificate and tokens with her? It was to show off. Everyone in the Su family knew that the grandfather, Old Master Su, was biased. He favored the children born to his second wife, Xiao Xie, the most. He even doted on Zhen Su, who looked like his second aunt and step-grandmother, to the sky. He was truly the apple of his eye and the treasure in his arms.

The general and the servant in the next room said: The second Miss Zhen is engaged, and the other party is a nobleman, what should the general do?

As expected, Zhen Su was engaged to Prince Rong Wei of the Le Da Marquis Mansion, just like in her previous life. Her marriage was taken away by her elder sister in her previous life. Perhaps she knew that she could not keep it this time, so she simply took action in advance?

Her life in the Zhen Mansion must have been not easy. She lost her mother at a young age, and her father took his childhood sweetheart cousin as his second wife. In front of her was her half-sister Zhen Zhen, in the back was her brother Zhen Bao who was the same age as her, and there was also a little daughter Zhen Zhu, born to her stepmother who was a year younger than her.
