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

Yan Yiyi did not respond to the bride's words. She looked down at the steward who was still kneeling on the ground with an unchanged expression and asked coldly, "Is there anything wrong with what she said?"

The steward had secretly glanced at the woman in front of him. He had never seen a woman like her with such aura.

She is not like the mayor's wife, whose smile is not in her eyes and whose aura is overwhelming; she is not like the other ladies, who smile on the surface but are gentle in heart, and are vicious inside; she is not as solemn as the old lady, nor as petty as the lady, nor as arrogant and domineering as the young lady, nor as calculating or loyal as the maids, nor as submissive as the untouchables.

The woman in front of him had an expressionless face, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking. Her temperament made him dare not underestimate her. His intuition told him that the woman in front of him was more difficult to deal with than the cold-faced young man just now.

Such a person, let alone himself, even the master probably can't afford to offend him, so he decisively chose to show weakness to the strong.

"Yes, just as the Second Young Master's wife said."

Yan Yiyi raised her eyebrows slightly: "Second Young Master's Wife?"

The steward immediately slapped his mouth and said, "Yes, I was wrong. It was Miss Lin."

Yan Yiyi gave Hua Bei a look, and Hua Bei nodded knowingly.

"Miss Lin, please follow me." Having said that, Yan Yiyi turned and left.

Miss Lin didn't even look at the steward, her eyes were fixed on the tall and free-spirited figure in front of her, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curled up, she was right in her bet, that was her light!

Yan Yiyi brought Miss Lin to the carriage and briefly introduced Hua Murong and Xin Ye. Miss Lin introduced herself to everyone again: "My name is Lin Ni, and I am from Qingshui Village. My parents died when I was young. I was raised by my grandparents. My grandmother also passed away a few years ago, and my grandfather also died of illness a few months ago.

My family is an outsider, and we didn't have a very good relationship with the villagers before, but we didn't have many conflicts either. My parents built a brick house before they died. Although it was not very big, it was one of the few brick houses in the village.

The village chief's wife initially wanted her third son to marry me, but my grandfather politely declined, so the village chief's wife held a grudge against our family.

After my grandfather passed away, the village chief's wife was worried that I would marry someone else and the brick house she had been dreaming of for a long time would be ruined. But she was also worried that I had a strong fate and would bring bad luck to them if I married into her family. So these days, she has been spreading rumors, resulting in no one daring to propose marriage to me.

It just so happened that I didn’t want to get married so early, so I ignored it.

Unexpectedly, the village chief's wife learned that the second young master of Mr. Lai's family in the town had a sudden serious illness. The doctor asked them to prepare for his funeral, and the Lai family basically gave up.

Unexpectedly, Mrs. Lai believed what a Taoist priest said and wanted to find a woman with a strong destiny to bring good luck to her son. If the luck fails, she will let the bride be buried with her son so that her son will have someone to take care of him in the underworld. Haha.

Yan Yiyi looked at Lin Ni, who was sneering and showing powerlessness, and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"

"I want to investigate the Lai family. After collecting evidence, I will ask the county magistrate to make the decision for us. As long as the Lai family is here, I will be in danger. I want to live!"

"The Lai family is just a wealthy family in your Qingyang Town. They may have some influence in your town. As long as you leave Qingyang Town and find a place to start over, what can they do to you?"

Lin Ni shook her head: "I am an orphan girl, I don't have any ability to protect myself, and I don't have any talent. If I go to a place where I am unfamiliar with everyone, I am afraid I will die faster."

As she spoke, she lowered her eyes and smiled bitterly.
