From an old woman back to a young girl, she vowed never to marry into a marquisate

Changfeng Courtyard.

Tang Wanru followed the prescription written by Yun Ting, and went to the small kitchen of Changfeng Courtyard with Wu Ling to boil the Chinese medicine, and personally brought it to Lin to drink.

When Lin woke up from her lunch break, she smelled a lingering aroma of medicine. She had taken some medicine before, but this time the aroma was particularly good. She looked up and saw Tang Wanru holding a porcelain flower medicine bowl and holding a small cloud fan with her slender white fingers. She walked in while gently applying medicine and fanning the air.

Lin felt warm in her heart.

In the past, Tang Wanru seldom came to see her, let alone personally boil medicine for her. Now, she saw a girl in a bright yellow skirt walking in from the door curtain filled with sunlight.

Lin couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips in relief.

"Miss." Lin's personal maid Xu Qing hurried over to take over, "Let me do it."

"Aunt Xu, be careful, it's hot!" Facing Xu Qing who was coming forward, Tang Wanru carefully reminded her. Instead of giving her the medicine in her hand, she placed it on the table beside the bed and said, "I'll do it."

I saw Tang Wanru also sitting beside the bed.

Xu Qing felt comforted. In the past, because of the estrangement between the Madam and the Master, the eldest daughter and the Madam were very unfamiliar with each other.

The lady was very sad about this matter.

Now the eldest daughter seems to have grown up and knows how to care for others. Looking at the two people, Xu Qing smiled.

Lin Yunrou had been taking medication for her palpitations before, but because the attacks were not frequent, she did not take the medication on time.

Tang Wanru came here today to remind her and ask her to take this matter seriously.

Seeing Tang Wanru sitting down, Lin Yunrou's expression became even gentler.

"Ru'er, are you getting married?"

Tang Wanru was just scooping up a spoonful of medicine and fanning it with a small fan to cool it down. She was a little surprised when she heard this, but she didn't stop her movements. She just raised her dark pupils and asked, "What did mother say?"

Lin Yunrou smiled calmly and said, "She changed the medicine for me and even prepared it herself and sent it to me today. Could it be that she is preparing to get married and has some instructions for my mother's health?"

Tang Wanru couldn't help laughing when she heard this. Her mother's idea was quite unique: "Mom, what are you talking about? Who said I'm getting married?"

"Not getting married?" When these words came out, it was Lin who was surprised.

"Will you not marry someone from the Yongning Marquisate?" Lin smiled at her expression and asked tentatively, "Will you not marry someone from the Bai family?"

Bai family?

Tang Wanru was stunned. Well, even though her mother stayed in this small courtyard all day, she knew everything about what was happening outside.

Lin naturally knew about it.

Although she seldom went out, the shop owners of the shops outside would come to her house regularly to report their revenues.

Naturally, the news about Tang Wanru spread quickly.

Lin didn't find it strange that the Bai family proposed to marry Tang Wanru.

What she found strange was Tang Wanru's attitude.

The last time the Yongning Marquis’ Mansion came to propose marriage, Tang Wanru simply turned her head and refused.

Now the Bai family proposed to marry Tang Wanru instead, but she seemed to be fine. When she came to see her today, Lin originally thought that this girl wanted to talk to her about this matter, but she didn't expect that she actually came to make medicine for her.

No word was said about the matter.

Tang Jiang told Bai's family that he would discuss the matter with her when he returned. Now Tang Wanru didn't show any attitude at all, and Lin was really unsure of her thoughts.

So since she didn't mention it, she has to ask.

After Lin asked this question, she waited curiously for Tang Wanru's answer. Unexpectedly, instead of getting an answer, she got a mouthful of extremely bitter medicine.

"Hmm." Tang Wanru handed the prepared medicine into Lin's mouth. Her face immediately turned black with bitterness and her brows furrowed.

Tang Wanru seemed not to have heard the question she had just asked, and instead said, "Mom, you never took your medicine properly before. I worked hard to prepare this prescription, and it also contains precious medicinal materials bought from Jiangnan, specifically to treat your palpitations. You can't be careless again."

Lin Yunrou swallowed the medicine and felt the bitter taste in her mouth dissipate a little. She ignored her words and continued to ask, "Did you have contact with the second son of the Bai family when you went to the Prince of Wei's Mansion last time?"

This rumor was the reason why the Bai family wanted to marry Tang Wanru instead, so of course she had to get to the bottom of it.

Tang Wanru answered while stirring the medicine: "That's a rumor. It was exaggerated by others. Someone spread it maliciously."

Malice?

Lin Yunrou paused and asked suspiciously, "So, the second son of the Bai family said he wanted to marry you, which broke the bad intentions of others. In fact, he is really responsible for you and wants to protect you?"

Tang Wanru: ...

She put another spoonful of medicine into Lin's mouth: "Mother, although your palpitations don't occur frequently, the doctor said that this disease is very sensitive to the elements. You must take the medicine on time and not skip it."

"I see." The bitter Lin's face darkened. She nodded and asked again, "So, you have never thought about marrying into the Bai family?"

Tang Wanru did not answer this question directly, but said in a calm voice: "Just protecting me by the way."

"Although the Bai family did this to stop the rumors that were unfavorable to me, didn't they also use me to stop Tang Yue'er's marriage?"

"Given Tang Yue'er's current reputation, the Bai family naturally didn't want to marry her. So they took advantage of the situation and found an excuse to marry me instead. They knew that my father's heart was on the Yongning Marquis' Mansion and he would never marry me there."

"Then this marriage will be over."

Tang Wanru raised her eyebrows: "The Bai family is a business family, they won't do business for nothing."

Oh, that's how it is.

Lin was not surprised by the Bai family's idea. What surprised her was... why did this girl just avoid her question so casually?

Lin was not a pushover, so she grasped the main point and asked again: "So, you are not planning to marry into the Bai family?"

As the words left her mouth, another mouthful of medicine was put into her mouth.

"It's so bitter!" Lin Yunrou couldn't help smacking her lips. This girl really knew how to prepare the right time to feed medicine.

"Not only is it bitter, this medicine also tastes bad!" At this moment, a cold male voice came from outside the door, and at the same time the door was pushed open. The two looked up and saw Tang Jiang standing there.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold.

Tang Wanru had almost finished giving her the medicine, so she put the bowl on the table and stood aside.

"What are you doing here?" When Lin Yunrou saw him, she immediately felt the medicine in her stomach churning, as if she was about to vomit.

Tang Jiang did not answer, but walked in with his hands behind his back, coughed lightly and sat down at the table. Smelling the smell in the air, he frowned and asked, "Did you change the medicine?"

Lin Yunrou had been taking the medicine for several years, and Tang Jiang knew it.

"Your illness is not serious." Tang Jiang said, "You just feel uncomfortable in your chest occasionally, but it's not frequent. You are a healthy person, but you have to make yourself like a medicine jar. Whenever you enter this room, your nose is choked. How can you be the wife of the Tang family?"

He starts to give orders as soon as he arrives.

Lin Yunrou was really convinced.

Lin Yunrou sneered: "I don't want to be the first lady, why don't you divorce me, Master Tang?"

Tang Jiang's face suddenly turned gloomy.
