Reborn as a legitimate daughter, huh? Why is she different from her previous life?

"Mother!" Yu Menghua came to the main courtyard with a happy face.

Liu Qingshuang quickly asked Li Ma to count the engagement gifts again, then turned around and complained to Yu Menghua with a smile: "Today we went to Dingyuan Marquis's mansion to propose marriage, and I don't know where your second brother, that naughty boy, has gone off to now."

Yu Menghua held Liu's mother's arm and said in a tender voice: "Humph, Second Brother is unreliable even for such an important matter as marrying a wife. Sister Rong is really wronged."

"You..." Mother Liu nodded her daughter's head helplessly, "If your second brother knew that you disliked him so much, he would definitely make a scene."

"Mom, what did you talk to my sister about?" Yu Jiyan walked in with a box in his arms.

Liu Qingshuang glared at him speechlessly, "What else can I say? You're running around on your wedding day. If you miss the time to propose, you'll cry!"

"That's right!" Yu Menghua said disdainfully, not wanting to be outdone.

Seeing that his mother and sister were not willing to give in, Yu Jiyan immediately said, "Mother and sister, don't be angry. I... I just came here to get the gift for Rong'er..."

Liu's mother and Yu Menghua finally let him go and gave him an appreciative look. "Hurry up, don't just stand there. Let's check the engagement list with Nanny Li again. It's almost time."

"Where is your father again? Neither of your sons is reliable..."

While chattering away, Liu's mother was checking the engagement gifts. Yu Menghua and Yu Jiyan also joined in the work with quick hands and feet.

When other families get engaged, they just send each other an engagement object that is approved by both families. However, only in their Taifu Mansion, they always send half of the betrothal gift when getting engaged.

It was not the request of the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion, but Yu Xiangchun and Liu Qingshuang discussed it and talked it over with the Dingyuan Marquis and the old lady. They decided to do so only after both families agreed.

Firstly, it represents the importance that the Yu family attaches to Li Rongjing. Secondly, the Yu family sent so many things just as an engagement gift, which is just right to let outsiders know so that no one can interfere with this marriage.

The engagement gift given by the Dingyuan Marquis' Mansion was half of the dowry that the Li family prepared for Li Rongjing when she got married.

When the Grand Tutor carried the engagement gifts in a stream from his residence to the Dingyuan Marquis's residence, the passers-by and common people who saw it all sighed.

"What is this? Is there a happy event in the Grand Tutor's Mansion?"

"It should be a betrothal proposal, right? I just don't know which young master of the Yu family it is."

"That's right. How come I haven't heard any news? Which family is the Taifu Mansion marrying into?"

"..."

Everyone was discussing heatedly. Yu Xiangchun and others entered the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion with the engagement gifts and the formal betrothal documents.

After going through the procedures of accepting the marriage proposal, asking for the name, accepting the marriage proposal and accepting the betrothal gift, everyone happily had a meal, but they were unaware that the outside world was in an uproar again.

Whether it was ordinary people or officials who were friendly or hostile to the two families, they were all discussing the marriage between the Taifu Mansion and the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

In a secret room in the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

A handsome middle-aged man was looking at the picture of a beauty on the wall in a daze. Suddenly, he heard three knocks on the wall. The man looked unhappy at being interrupted.

But he still walked to a wall and pressed the mechanism on the wall with his finger. A secret door appeared on the wall. The man straightened his robe and strode out of the secret door.

The outside of the secret room looked like a study, in which a man dressed in black with a long scar on his brow was waiting for him.

"Chu Yi, I have told you many times that if it is not an important matter, please do not disturb me at this time!" The man scolded with an expressionless face.

The black-clothed man named Chu Yi did not change his expression at all, like an emotionless machine, and spoke coldly.

"The Taifu Mansion and Dingyuan Marquis Mansion have formed a marriage."

The man's expression became even uglier. "Impossible! Why has there never been any news about this before? This Grand Tutor left Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion to Xuan'er..."

"Hehe, the Emperor has just sent the imperial decree granting marriage to the Second Prince's mansion! Don't say you don't know what Feng Yuxuan has done!" Chu Yi, who originally had no expression of joy or anger, was suddenly filled with hostility after hearing the man's words.

"Do you think he will act according to your arrangement? Don't dream! Not to mention that he doesn't know his true life experience at all. Even if he knew, with his personality, he would not be willing to be an obedient puppet..."

Before Chu Yi could finish his words, the man interrupted him harshly, "Shut up! He is not a puppet! Everything Yu'er and I did was to make him..."

There is no need to say the rest, both people in the room understand.

Chu Yi's eyes were slightly cold, and after a while he said expressionlessly: "Ji Changze, do you still remember your parents who are far away in Nanchu?!"

Ji Changze narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a bad tone: "Chu Yi, what do you mean? Are you threatening me?!"

Chu Yi curled his lips sarcastically, "I'm just reminding you, don't forget why we stayed here, and don't forget that in their eyes, you are not as good as me, Chu Yi!"

"So, whether it's you or me, it's best to know what you can and can't do, and what you shouldn't think... If they find out, I don't need to remind you of the consequences!"

Ji Changze pursed his thin lips, and neither of them spoke for a long time.

"They... sent you a message? What do they want us to do..." Ji Changze had expected this day to come, after all, Yu'er's life was still in their hands...

……

After just a few days of peace, Yu Menghua, Li Rongjing and Feng Yusu met at Zuixianju for tea. They happened to meet Tan Shuyun, who was also resting and drinking tea at Zuixianju after being tired from shopping. However, Tan Shuyun did not see the three people behind the screen.

No one knew what Tan Shuyun and Wu Pinting were thinking. Not long after Tan Shuyun sat down, Wu Pinting came over with a smile. Tan Shuyun also smiled and asked Wu Pinting to sit at her table as if nothing had happened.

Yu Menghua and the other two behind the screen: "..."

Could it be that the two of them developed feelings for each other because of that "caught cheating"? ?

"Sister Tan, what a coincidence! I just happened to see a pair of earrings at Cui Yu Xuan today. As soon as I saw them, I felt that they suited Sister Tan very well..."

Wu Pinting suppressed the twinkle in her eyes and the smile on her face was extremely bright, as if she was not the one who had ruined Tan Shuyun's reputation and wanted to kill Tan Shuyun some time ago.

She waved for Caiyun to bring over a small box, opened it and pushed it in front of Tan Shuyun, "Sister, take a look. Do you like it?"

Tan Shuyun was not afraid that Wu Pinting would dare to harm her in public. She reached out and took out the pair of ruby ​​earrings from the box and looked at them carefully.

"Sister, you really have good taste. I really like these bright red... gemstone earrings..."

Tan Shuyun never dreamed that her self-righteousness and contempt for others would ruin her life. Of course, this is a story for later.
