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

The other side of the flowerbed.

"Ah!" A woman's cry caught Bai Yanli's attention.

At this time, he and Zhou Zhuoqi had already separated. He was in the white peony garden at the foot of the mountain to see if the flowers here were suitable for making peony water.

Hearing someone calling, Bai Yanli turned around subconsciously.

His eyes passed over the overlapping flowers and saw a woman in a bright red dress sitting on the ground not far away.

It was Tang Yueer.

A cold light flashed in Bai Yanli's pupils.

Tang Yue'er's face flushed, she lowered her head and stood up by herself: "I'm sorry, Mr. Bai, there was a pit here just now that I didn't see, and I accidentally fell down, and I disturbed you."

She didn't fall down. She had been squatting here waiting for a long time. The flowers here were the best, and she bet that Bai Yanli would come.

Fortunately, she made the right bet, which gave the two of them a chance to meet alone.

Her mother said so.

Private contact is the first step in initiating a relationship between a man and a woman.

Bai Yanli looked at her, his eyes devoid of any emotion, even as if he could see through everything, making people feel cold under their feet.

There was no ambiguity in the atmosphere. On the contrary, Bai Yanli's gaze made her a little scared, and she couldn't help but clench her hands.

Bai Yanli didn't even look at her, just turned and left.

She was a little anxious and said hurriedly: "Mr. Bai, we have met before. I am Tang Yueer, the daughter of the Tang family."

Bai Yanli acted as if he heard nothing and continued walking forward.

Tang Yue'er didn't expect him to do this. She shouted in panic, "We are engaged! Our engagement is a fate that is destined to happen. How can you ignore our fate like that? And turn a blind eye to me?"

Bai Yanli paused, but continued walking forward.

"Bai Yanli!" Tang Yue'er couldn't help but yelled, "Do you think this is fair to me? You've broken off my engagement again and again in front of me. Did you give me a chance to explain? I'm your fiancée, are you so cruel to me?"

Seeing Bai Yanli disappear in the flowers, Tang Yueer almost collapsed, her voice even tinged with tears: "Bai Yanli!"

Finally, Bai Yanli stopped.

In the center of the flower garden.

The ladies were sitting in the Hundred Flowers Pavilion in the middle of the flower garden and chatting.

"Yes, we accepted his marriage proposal." Yang Lingling, the eldest daughter of the Yang family, stood in the middle of the crowd. She blushed and glanced at Chen Tang, the son of the Chen family, who was standing in the group of noblemen not far away and looking at her. She said delicately, "We have known each other since childhood. It would be bad to refuse."

"Childhood sweethearts." Miss Li and the others laughed.

Tang Wanru and Miss Wu Ying sat there laughing. The servants picked a plate of peony stamens for them. The two of them listened and ate them at the same time.

"That's not the case." Yang Lingling hastily denied, "We just know each other. Apart from the two families meeting, we have never met in private."

"I know, I know." Miss Li said with a smile, "You are a clean person, we all know it."

The eldest daughter of the Yang family blushed when she was told this.

"But the young master of the Chen family is also a man of integrity. Over the years, you are the only one who has been rumored to have such a thing. Unlike some men..." Miss Li stopped talking halfway and looked at Tang Wanru hesitantly.

"What man? Do I know him?" Tang Wanru took over the conversation calmly.

Miss Wu motioned for her to stop talking.

Tang Wanru was waiting for her to speak.

Tang Wanru's calm eyes frightened Miss Li, and she blurted out, "It's that Prince Zhou. There were rumors about him and Miss Tang before, and now he's asking for her hand in marriage..."

"Oh, then I don't know him." Tang Wanru made a conclusion before she finished speaking.

Look at her attitude. All the noble ladies admire Tang Wanru so much. Even the Yongning Marquisate has asked her to marry him, but she still dares to say so firmly that she doesn't know Zhou Ziyue.

Gee tut.

It seems that the Yongning Marquis Mansion still has a long way to go in its pursuit of marriage.

A few people were chatting, but suddenly a male voice came from behind: "Tang Wanru."

The noble ladies turned around and saw Zhou Ziyue standing behind them!

Everyone was shocked. In the past, noble sons and daughters attended banquets separately. It was very rare for a noble son to openly come to the girl.

It's too much of a scandal.

The noble ladies stood up one after another and looked at Tang Wanru.

"Come with me, I have something to tell you." Zhou Ziyue stood there and ordered calmly.

Tang Wanru still sat there without moving, and didn't even respond to him.

The scene was awkward for a moment.

The noble ladies felt they could no longer sit there, so they all followed Miss Wu's instructions and moved away.

It provides a place for two people to communicate.

Soon, only Tang Wanru and Zhou Ziyue were left there.

Tang Wanru didn't even look at him, but casually picked up the pistil and ate it.

Zhou Ziyue sneered self-deprecatingly: "Miss Tang, you don't know me, so let me formally introduce myself to you. My name is Zhou Ziyue, the prince of Yongning Marquis's Mansion. Do you recognize me now?"

Tang Wanru was too lazy to look back at him.

Zhou Ziyue was getting anxious. He lifted his shirt and sat in front of her. "Wanru, I can explain what happened at Longquan Temple that day. It was windy at the time, so I went to the side room to avoid the wind. My clothes were messed up by the wind, so I looked a little disheveled. It was not what you imagined."

"Prince Zhou." Tang Wanru raised her eyes calmly, "You don't have to explain so much to me. Didn't we just meet?"

Zhou Ziyue: ...

Tang Wanru looked at him with a pair of pure and innocent eyes, and that look choked Zhou Ziyue so much that he couldn't say a word.

"Tang Wanru!"

"Prince Zhou, it is not polite to call a girl you just met by her name!" Tang Wanru said coldly.

Zhou Ziyue was about to explode with rage.

A few days ago, she said that she would reconsider their marriage. Because of her words, he pushed all the responsibility for falling into the water in the Prince of Wei's Mansion onto Tang Yue'er. Later, the incident at Longquan Temple happened. He knew that Tang Wanru saw his embarrassed look when he came out of the wing room. Later, he sent Tang Wanru letters to explain many times, but she confiscated them. Now she said she didn't know him anymore.

Zhou Ziyue was really anxious: "Tang Wanru, what do you want me to do to forgive me?"

forgive?

"What am I supposed to forgive a man I just met?"

"you!"

What's her attitude? Is she just throwing in the towel?

Zhou Ziyue was so angry that he took a deep breath and said, "Wanru, I have a clear conscience about what happened at Longquan Temple. You should know very well how I treated you."

"Let's not talk about the past anymore. I've already told my mother that our mansion will prepare all the gifts for marriage proposal according to Madam Lin's request, and my mother will go to the Tang family to propose marriage in person. I will do everything you asked me to do, and I hope you can stop at the right time and not go too far."

Too much?

What has she gone too far?

Zhou Ziyue continued, "If I offend my mother, I won't be able to guarantee this marriage."

"I can't do anything if you regret it later."

Does she regret it?

Tang Wanru was really about to laugh out loud.

She had taken enough regret pills in her previous life, and she would never regret it in this one.

After Zhou Ziyue finished speaking, he turned around and left.
