Qingyu Courtyard.

As soon as Tang Yue'er came back, Aunt Liu came up to her and asked, "How is it going? Did she agree to marry?"

Tang Yue'er looked unhappy and she sat on the bed with a gloomy face.

"She really doesn't want to marry?" Aunt Liu just heard the servants in the yard talking about Tang Wanru refusing the marriage proposal on the spot. With Tang Wanru's personality, she didn't believe it at all.

But now Tang Yue'er is also like this, and she feels very strange.

"Does she have any other ideas?" Aunt Liu asked suspiciously.

"What other ideas do you have?" Tang Yue'er interrupted her angrily, with a look of disdain on her face, "She just got the proposal from Prince Zhou, and she is so beautiful that she doesn't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is."

She snorted coldly, "She is a girl who has never seen a man before. Suddenly such a noble man asks her to marry him. Of course she is proud. Of course she has to act pretentious. She acts pretentious in front of Prince Zhou, and she even acts pretentious in front of me. Does she think I can't see what she is thinking? I want to see how long she can keep acting pretentious?"

"Yuer," Aunt Liu asked, "Isn't it possible that Prince Zhou won't come to ask for her hand in marriage? It seems that Tang Wanru really rejected him."

"No." Tang Yue'er had a say in this. She curled her lips and said, "I know Prince Zhou. He is a very tenacious and determined person. Since he said he wants to marry Tang Wanru, he will definitely find ways to marry her. I believe him."

Aunt Liu nodded.

That's good, it's just a matter of time.

"Mom." Tang Yue'er reminded her, "We can't just wait. You have to go to my dad and persuade him. If he makes up his mind, Tang Wanru will have no choice but to marry him."

Aunt Liu clutched the handkerchief, made up her mind and nodded.

Changfeng Courtyard.

Lin Yunrou had just woken up from her nap when a graceful figure flashed into the room and threw herself into her arms. Lin took a look and realized that the person in her arms could not be her Ruer.

"Mom, I miss you so much." Tang Wanru smelled the fragrance of her mother and felt her body temperature which she had not felt for a long time, and her heart felt at peace.

In the last days of her previous life, she saw herself aging irreversibly day by day, and death was visibly approaching her. She was lonely and scared, and missed her mother madly.

At that time, she wanted to smell the scent of her mother so much.

She wants her mother to hold her in her arms, touch her head and comfort her when she is in despair, saying, "Don't be afraid, my child."

But her mother was no longer around by then, and her only wish became a luxury.

Lin was startled by her sudden hug. She wondered why she missed her so much after only two days at her mother's house. Then Lin gently hugged Tang Wanru and stroked her long hair, smiling and saying, "Silly girl, mother has only been gone for two days, and now she is back, isn't she?"

More than two days.

It’s as long as a lifetime.

In fact, before marrying into the Marquis' Mansion in her previous life, Tang Wanru and Lin Yunrou did not have a close relationship, and she even hated her mother a little.

The reason was that she felt Lin was very selfish.

Lin Yunrou is the daughter of a general.

His father was a great hero who could fight against hundreds of enemies alone. He was named General Changwu by the previous emperor and was granted the General's Mansion. Later, when Lin's father died, Lin's elder brother Lin Yunsong succeeded him and took charge of the General's Mansion.

Because the current emperor values ​​culture over military affairs, the Lin family's status has fallen drastically compared to the past, but the foundation is still there.

A hundred times better than the Tang family.

Lin and Tang Jiang used to be on equal terms.

But ever since Tang Jiang brought Liu's mother and daughter into the mansion, Lin has distanced herself from Tang Jiang, and even gave the power of managing the household to Aunt Liu according to Tang Jiang's wishes.

But Lin was not penniless. She owned several shops that she had bought with her dowry.

Good income.

Tang Jiang and Aunt Liu had coveted the shop for a long time, but Lin turned a deaf ear to them.

Even when the Tang family was in great difficulty and Tang Jiang's salary was very tight, he was unwilling to spend a penny.

Although she lived in the Tang Mansion, she seemed to have no relationship with the Tang Mansion anymore.

Under the instigation of Liu's mother and daughter, Tang Wanru at that time did not understand why her mother was so indifferent to the Tang family. Aren't they a big family? Her mother should have given some money to help the family when they were short of money.

She even felt that Liu, who worked hard for the Tang family every day, was the one who truly cared about the Tang family.

So compared to her mother, she was closer to Aunt Liu at that time.

But such a selfish mother in her eyes gave her several of her most profitable shops as a dowry when she married into the marquis's mansion.

Aunt Liu, who was in charge of the Tang family's finances, kept saying that she would marry in glory, but she was not allowed to bring even a box of her dowry to the mansion, claiming that it had been stolen.

On the contrary, Tang Yueer, who got married on the same day, carried thirty loads of dowry to her husband's house!

Only then did she understand.

My mother's heart died when Aunt Liu came into the family.

The reason why she insisted on staying in the Tang family and not leaving was because of her!

Her mother is her closest relative!

Now seeing Lin again, Tang Wanru hated herself for her previous stupidity and vowed to protect her mother.

Thinking of this, Tang Wanru buried her head in her mother's arms again. Lin rarely saw her like this, and thought she was frightened by Zhou Ziyue's marriage proposal today, so she hugged her tightly and said, "Ruru, don't be afraid. With mother here, as long as you don't want to, no one can influence your marriage!"

"The same goes for Yongning Marquis Mansion!"

Lin's words were full of confidence. This was due to her pride as she came from a noble family, but also the confidence given to her by the General's Mansion!

Although the General's Mansion is not valued now, its past glory has not faded, and the Yongning Marquis' Mansion cannot do whatever it wants.

Tang Wanru looked up at her mother. Yes, if she hadn’t been so stupid as to insist on getting married in her previous life, and hadn’t taken her mother’s kindness as personal, how could she have had such a miserable ending?

Tang Wanru looked at her mother and said, "As long as I am here, I am not afraid of anything."

"Silly girl." Lin suddenly remembered that Tang Wanru had not been this close to her for a long time, and tears flashed in her eyes. "No matter what time, mother will always be your strong backer."

The mother and daughter held hands and looked at each other. At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open with a loud bang.

Lin Yunrou and Tang Wanru looked out together and saw Tang Jiang standing at the door with an angry face, followed by Aunt Liu who was trying to grab Tang Jiang.

"This is simply ridiculous. You still call me a strong supporter? What do you think of Yongning Marquis Mansion? What do you think of me, Tang Jiang?!"

"Oh, sir, don't be impulsive. Let's talk it over nicely." Liu Panchun pulled Tang Jiang's arm and tried to dissuade him in a pretentious manner.

Lin Yunrou looked at him with cold eyes: "Who allowed you to come in?"

Two years ago, after Aunt Liu and Tang Yue'er moved in, Lin Yunrou moved to the side courtyard of Changfengyuan. She rarely went to the front courtyard on weekdays, and no longer had any contact with Tang Jiang.

Since the two of them had separated, Tang Jiang was tactful enough not to come to Changfeng Courtyard. He certainly wouldn't break in.

Today, he had originally come to discuss with Lin Yunrou to finalize Tang Wanru's marriage in accordance with Aunt Liu's advice.

After all, in his opinion, the Yongning Marquisate was the only good marriage opportunity for his Tang family!

I didn't expect to hear such words!

Backing? Where does this put him, the head of the family?

And the Yongning Marquis Mansion is no exception?

The Yongning Marquis Mansion is now coming to his Tang family's nobles! Or is it a jackal, a tiger or a leopard? !

What a soft-hearted woman!

"Why can't I come in?" Tang Jiang said coldly, "No matter how remote this Changfeng Courtyard is, it is still in the Tang Mansion. It is my territory. I can come whenever I want!"

"Tang Jiang, have you forgotten?" Lin Yunrou retorted with a cold face, "You had nothing at the beginning, and this big courtyard of the Tang Mansion was bought with my dowry. If I want it, you have to move out of this mansion!"

Tang Jiang was speechless: "You!"

Liu didn't want the two of them to quarrel over this matter. She had important business to attend to today, so she gave Tang Jiang a look.

Tang Jiang also understood what he meant, and he said, "I didn't mean to break into your yard, but what ideas were you trying to instill in Wanru just now?"

"Marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words. What does it have to do with whether she likes it or not? What does she know as a girl? Who can be held responsible for missing out on a good marriage according to her preferences?"

"A good marriage?" Lin Yunrou smiled coldly, "You call the marriage of the Yongning Marquis's son who came to ask for marriage without his father or mother a good marriage?"

"How can it not be a good marriage?" Tang Jiang said, "You stay in this deep courtyard every day, what do you know and understand? Do you know which faction the Yongning Marquis Mansion belongs to? Do you know who is the most favored by the current emperor? How much do you know about the current situation in the court? You stay in this side courtyard all day and don't see the world, what knowledge can you have? You still want to decide Tang Wanru's marriage? What kind of decision are you making?"

Tang Wanru was almost amused when she heard it.

At this time, he rushed towards the muzzle of the gun.

Does this mean he understands the situation?
