Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

"No, no, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding." The steward finally regained a trace of rationality, "Sir, I am only following orders, and I don't know the specific details."

Suddenly, the steward knelt down and began to play the victim: "Sir, the auspicious time is coming soon. If I can't complete the task of picking up the bride, the master will definitely blame me. I hope you will be kind and let us take the young lady back.

Our master and mistress love the second young master very much. If the young mistress is handed over to the second young master, the master and mistress will definitely love the young mistress as well and love her a lot.

After marrying into our Lai family, the young lady will no longer have to worry about food and drink. She will work hard every day, have servants to serve her in her daily life, and live in luxury. Isn't this better than living in the village?

Besides, the young lady has no relatives at home. If she marries the second young master, she will have her own family. She and the second young master will have children and live together until old age. Isn't this the happy life that everyone envies?"

If the bride had not asked for help earlier, the life described by the steward would be the ideal life for most women. Moreover, the steward emphasized that the bride was an orphan and would have a new home after getting married, which was a very tempting condition for someone who lacks love.

If it were someone else, they would have certainly started to persuade the bride to stop making trouble and follow the steward.

The person the bride is asking for help now is Hua Bei, who has been trained as a secret guard since he was a child. Compared with the average person, he is more cold-hearted and rational.

No matter how fantastic the steward's words were, he would always follow the decision of the person concerned. If she felt that the future described by the steward was what she wanted, he would respect the fate of others. When a case occurred, the master would make the decision for her, which would be considered revenge for her.

The bride shook her head repeatedly, with fear written all over her face: "I don't want to get married, they say I have a hard life and will bring bad luck to everyone in my family, and they need me to marry that sickly guy.

If the wedding fails, let me be buried with you."

Hua Bei didn't hear the answer he wanted, so he asked calmly, "What if the wedding is successful?"

The bride still shook her head: "No, I won't take that slight chance. I want to live. My parents and grandparents want me to live until they die. I can't let them down.

Even if I am poor and destitute, I will live with my own hands." She looked determined, with a bright light in her eyes, staring at Hua Bei without blinking, as if the light in her eyes would be extinguished instantly if Hua Bei refused.

Hua Bei saw that she was a rational and tenacious girl. He gave his subordinates a look, then looked at Xinniang and nodded: "Wait a minute, I'll go ask our young master."

Having said that, Hua Bei gave a warning look to the steward who was kneeling on the ground and turned back to report to Hua Murong.

After hearing what happened, Hua Murong turned to look at Yan Yiyi: "Yier, I plan to go take a look, what about you?" After all, they had already discussed it before. When they arrived at the next village, they would go to the nearby mountains to take a look.

Yan Yiyi thought about it and decided that going up the mountain was not that urgent. They suggested going up the mountain mainly because they were all on the road, feeling a bit bored, and wanted to go out and have fun.

Now that something has happened, my eldest brother, as the magistrate of Guyang County, must intervene when encountering injustice. It sounds like the Lai family is not a good bunch, and they have certain connections in the local area, so it may be troublesome to deal with them.

I think that by then, my eldest brother will have to deal with more than just the Lai family.
