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

Tang Mansion, study.

Tang Jiang was walking back and forth in the study with his hands behind his back, looking very anxious.

Something happened to him.

It was because of the imperial examination last night.

He was the Minister of Rites and participated in this imperial examination. But last night I heard that something went wrong in the examination and the Emperor was personally investigating it.

Once the emperor finds out something is wrong, he will hold someone accountable.

As a small official, I might be implicated or even pushed out.

He was very unsure.

And now the Yongning Marquis's Mansion has come to propose marriage again. The old marquis is now a favorite of the emperor.

I'm sure I can say something about this matter.

If the Tang family rejects the marriage proposal from the Yongning Marquis' Mansion this time, it will mean that they have rejected the marriage for the third time. How can the old marquis forgive them?

If even the old marquis mentioned this matter to the emperor, not only his position but also his head would be in danger.

Thinking of this, Tang Jiang became more and more uneasy.

And now there is a tricky thing at hand.

The Bai family actually came to propose marriage today.

In this situation, he couldn't even deal with the Yongning Marquisate, and the Bai family actually came to join in the fun.

He really wanted to directly reject the Bai family and not let him come.

But Lin Yunrou received the invitation from the Bai family again!

Hey.

How can this be good?

The more Tang Jiang thought about it, the more anxious he became, and his mood became uneasy.

At this time, Liu pushed the door open and walked in. She saw Tang Jiang's anxiety, so she said, "Master, the Bai family cannot agree to it, and must refuse."

Tang Jiang thought she didn't understand, so he just shook his head and refused to talk to her.

"Master, I understand what you said to me yesterday. This is not just Tang Wanru's personal matter. It concerns your life and the entire Tang family. We can't take it lightly."

Tang Jiang never expected that she actually understood what he said to her yesterday.

"I want to refuse too." Tang Jiang said, "But how can I refuse? Yun Rou received the post, how can she agree to it?"

"She has to agree even if she doesn't want to!" Liu said firmly, "Master, if you offend the old marquis of Yongning Marquis's Mansion, and he says a few words about the imperial examination in front of the emperor, then the Tang family will be finished."

Now that the Tang family is gone, where can Lin Yunrou go to be a lady?

The words say so.

"But Yunrou's personality..." It doesn't matter to her at all.

"Master, you must be firm in your opinion now." Liu said, "That is, the Bai family who came to propose marriage this time must be rejected, and the Yongning Marquis' Mansion must agree. There is no other possibility."

"Only in this way can the Tang family be saved."

Liu said meaningfully, "Master, you have to know that now is not the time for Tang Wanru to act out."

"If she doesn't marry, you and the Tang family will be in danger!"

Yes. It's very dangerous.

Tang Jiang was suddenly enlightened by her words.

The Bai family can come but must be rejected.

Only by agreeing to the Yongning Marquisate can the situation be improved. Tang Wanru married into the Yongning Marquisate.

With the old marquis in charge, his affairs concerning the imperial examination would be safe and sound.

This time, Tang Wanru can no longer be allowed to do as she pleases.

He has to make the decision!

Thinking of this, Tang Jiang and Liu looked at each other and confirmed their ideas.

Came to this path again.

Mrs. Du lifted the curtain of the carriage and took a look at the dilapidated road. She felt her chest was suffocating.

She really didn't understand.

How could Zhou Ziyue be so blind that he had to look for the daughter of this humble family? She felt a tightness in her chest, as if she couldn't breathe, before she even entered the door.

Mrs. Du glanced at Zhou Ziyue who was sitting opposite her and felt her chest getting even tighter. She covered her mouth with a handkerchief.

The old marquis Zhou Wucai didn't feel anything.

He lifted the car curtain, looked out, and then looked away.

Mrs. Du saw that neither of the two men was like her, and she felt even worse. She rolled her eyes at Zhou Ziyue and said, "If it doesn't work this time, I think you might as well just send someone to take this woman back."

“It saves a lot of trouble.”

Zhou Ziyue knew that his mother was being wronged by having to come to such a place twice, so he didn't say anything.

The old marquis frowned and said, "Listen to what you are saying. You are still the wife of the marquis."

Why are you blaming her for this?

Mrs. Du was speechless, she almost jumped up: "You didn't see what the Tang family's daughter looks like. It's the third time! She has rejected the Yongning Marquisate twice, and this time is the third time! The first two times she rejected the Yongning Marquisate, people in the capital laughed their heads off, I was too embarrassed to go out. If the third time doesn't work, don't just arrest her directly, do we have to give her a fourth or fifth chance to refuse?"

"How can the Yongning Marquisate survive in the capital from now on? You are shameless, but I still have some dignity!" Mrs. Du rolled her eyes in anger.

"Look at you." The old marquis sighed helplessly, "Look at your attitude. Why did the Tang family reject the Yongning Marquisate twice? With your attitude towards marriage, if I were the Tang family, I would also reject it."

Mrs. Du was speechless: "Why are you still speaking for outsiders?"

"I'm looking for the reason!" The old marquis said solemnly, "Logically speaking, the Tang family is far from worthy of the Yongning Marquisate, and she has no reason to refuse. Since she refused, there must be a reason." The old marquis looked at Mrs. Du and said, "For us, the Tang family is marrying up, but now Zi Yue has taken a fancy to her, right? Since he wants to marry her, he should have the attitude of asking for marriage."

"Look at you." The old marquis looked at Madam Du helplessly. "With your arrogant and bossy attitude, the Tang family thinks that our mansion is a mean and sarcastic family. Who would want to marry into such a family?"

Mrs. Du's face turned pale when she heard this.

How come this is all blamed on her?

"Master!" Mrs. Du wanted to explain, "You didn't see that girl. She was simply..."

"That's enough." The old marquis's face darkened. "Don't say anything more. Be nicer today and don't talk nonsense. Even if you really don't like her, you have to marry her first. After you marry her, you can decide how to vent your anger."

After hearing this, Mrs. Du wanted to refute but she gritted her teeth and suppressed the anger in her chest.

At this time, the carriage had arrived at the gate of the Tang family mansion.

Zhou Ziyue lifted the curtain and saw that a very luxurious carriage was parked in front of the Tang Mansion.

Mrs. Du was also very surprised.

She frowned and asked, "Whose carriage is this?"

*

Tang Mansion, in the garden.

Tang Jiang walked out quickly, frowning as he asked the servant, "Has anyone come in yet?"

"Yes, the lady has been brought in. She is in the side hall." The servant replied.

"Oh, this Lin Yunrou!" Tang Jiang slapped his thigh in anger. He originally planned to let the Yongning Marquis' Mansion come in first, and when the Bai family came, he would say that there were guests and asked them to come again tomorrow.

Although I received their posts.

But there must always be a first come first served.

Once the marriage with the Yongning Marquis's Mansion is finalized, it will naturally be impossible if the Bai family comes tomorrow.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yunrou had already brought someone in.

This is great.

How to refuse?

Thinking of this, Tang Jiang had already arrived outside the side hall. Lin Yunrou happened to be outside arranging tea for Bai's parents.

"Master." The maid bowed in a low voice.

Tang Jiang walked straight to Lin and lowered his voice and said, "Why are you not staying in your side yard? What are you doing out here?"

"What are you doing?" Lin Yunrou was confused by the question. "What are you doing? I am receiving guests."

She was not entertaining guests at all, she was just making trouble.

"I am the one who always brings in the visitors."

"Then I am the master too." Lin Yunrou answered confidently.

"You." Tang Jiang's face turned green with anger.

"You don't want the Bai family to come in, do you?" Lin Yunrou saw through Tang Jiang's thoughts at a glance, "You've accepted the invitation but are planning to shut them out. You're really something."

"Yun Rou!" Tang Jiang was so angry that he jumped up and down.

At this moment, Bai Ge and Shang Shi in the side hall heard the noise outside and came out.

I saw that it was indeed Tang Jiang outside.

"Brother Tang!" Bai Ge walked out with a smile and shook hands with him. "We meet again. It's really nice to see you today."

Tang Jiang smiled back awkwardly: "Brother Bai, are you here?"
