Quick Wear: I am a good female supporting role
Chapter 549: Extra: Marriage Substitute 1
The gongs and drums are loud, and the red makeup is ten miles long.
The people on the long street all leaned out to watch, and Jiang Qiuyue was one of them.
The wind lifted the curtain of the carriage and rolled up a corner of the red veil.
Under the veil, only half of her porcelain-white face was faintly visible, but her extraordinary beauty could still be seen.
Jiang Qiuyue knew who was sitting in the sedan chair; it was her adoptive father’s biological daughter, Xue Lingruo.
The person originally sitting in the sedan should have been her.
Jiang Qiuyue silently said sorry in her heart.
I'm sorry, stepfather. I'm sorry, stepmother.
Ever since the Jiang family was wiped out, Jiang Qiuyue was adopted by her father's good friend Xue Zheng and raised under the Xue family's name.
They made sure she had enough food and clothing, taught her martial arts, and even treated her better than their own daughter. Jiang Qiuyue was grateful in her heart. Father and Mother Xue doted on her and made her like a princess who didn't have to worry about anything.
Before the Jiang family was wiped out, they were also well-known martial arts masters in the martial arts world, with various forces trying to curry favor with them. Jiang Qiuyue was also engaged to the Bai family since she was a child.
The Jiang family was quietly wiped out overnight. Everyone was afraid of offending the forces behind the scenes, and no one dared to lend a helping hand. Even the Bai family, who had a family relationship with them, just watched coldly and never mentioned the matter.
In recent years, the Bai family has produced a genius with extraordinary physique, who defeated the former number one in the martial arts world, and their status is no longer the same as before. Jiang Qiuyue originally thought that the marriage between the two families was off.
After all, the Bai family, which was in a dominant position in the martial arts world back then, was unwilling to pay attention to an orphan like her. It made no sense that she would be willing to bring up the matter again now that she had become the leader.
But her adoptive father and mother seemed to want her to marry him. "Qiuyue, this is a good marriage. The Bai family is no longer what it used to be. If you get in, I'm afraid everyone in the martial arts world will want to curry favor with you."
"Foster father, I don't want to get married." Jiang Qiuyue frowned and looked at Madam Xue for help. "Foster mother, you don't want Qiuyue to get married either. Right?"
However, her stepmother, who always loved her, did not agree to all her requests just because she acted like a spoiled child as she did in the past. Madam Xue said sternly, "Marriage is a serious matter, how can you mess around with it? This is the marriage arranged by your deceased father, and it was also his last wish. Do you want him to have trouble resting in peace in his grave?"
Thinking of her biological father who had never been kind to her, Jiang Qiuyue didn't understand why her father had been dead for so long and should have rested in peace long ago. Was there any connection between whether she could get married or not and whether her father could rest in peace?
Dozens of Jiang family members were killed, and her father died with his eyes open. If he didn't go to reincarnation, it means that his resentment is hard to dissipate, and how can the resentment that is hard to dissipate dissipate just because she gets married? If her father goes to reincarnation and the resentment is gone, then her marriage will be meaningless.
Jiang Qiuyue really didn't want to fulfill her marriage with the Bai family. They didn't help the Jiang family after they were wiped out, which showed that they were not good people. Would her father be willing to let her marry into such a family?
She thought that rather than getting married, finding the murderer who wiped out the entire Jiang family would make her father rest in peace.
But Xue Zheng and Madam Xue kept insisting, so Jiang Qiuyue had no choice but to agree, "Okay, okay, foster father and foster mother, isn't it okay for me to marry you?"
Getting married was impossible for her. Jiang Qiuyue had already packed her bags and ran away the day before her engagement, leaving a letter behind.
She originally thought that her departure would at least cause some commotion, but the Xue family acted as if nothing had happened and continued to arrange the wedding and send out invitations.
That’s not right. If the bride ran away, who would be the one getting married?
Everything had its answer when Jiang Qiuyue saw Xue Lingruo's familiar face.
The adoptive father and mother actually let Lingruo marry in her place!
Jiang Qiuyue's heart was pounding. She originally thought that the marriage would be called off. When that time came, she would go back to the Xue family and act coquettishly to her adoptive father and mother to get away with it. However, she never expected that her adoptive father and mother would do such a thing.
She doesn't want to get married. Xue Lingruo certainly doesn't want to get married either.
Jiang Qiuyue knew her adopted sister's personality. She seemed gentle and peaceful, but she was actually very opinionated.
Sometimes Jiang Qiuyue would feel that Xue Zheng and Madam Xue doted on her more than Xue Lingruo, and would even give their only one piece of silk and satin jewelry to her.
Jiang Qiuyue felt something was wrong and kept refusing. She said to Madam Xue, "Sister Lingruo doesn't have anything, so how can I take it?"
But Madam Xue looked at her lovingly. When she heard Xue Lingruo's name, a trace of barely perceptible disgust flashed across her eyes. "This is my thing. I can give it to whoever I want. Just keep it, my Qiuyue."
Afterwards, Jiang Qiuyue went to find Xue Lingruo to apologize, but Xue Lingruo waved his hand and said, "Nothing."
She also noticed that her parents liked Jiang Qiuyue more and their attitude towards her was always indifferent. When teaching the Xue family's exclusive secret method, Xue Zheng taught Jiang Qiuyue personally, but when it was Xue Lingruo's turn, he just gave her a few indifferent pointers.
Xue Lingruo didn't take it to heart. Xue's martial arts were not suitable for her and it would be useless for her to learn them. Besides, Jiang Qiuyue was not a person who would cause trouble and was a good person.
Out of guilt, Jiang Qiuyue always went to Xueyue Residence to look for Xue Lingruo. After a few visits, the two became familiar with each other.
Sometimes Jiang Qiuyue even felt that Xue Lingruo’s feelings and attitude towards her were much better than those towards her biological parents.
At least when she was with Xue Zheng and Madam Xue, she had never seen Xue Lingruo smile at them.
But I can enjoy this honor of hers.
She had seen all of Xue Lingruo's few smiles.
In Jiang Qiuyue's heart, Xue Lingruo is her sister and her good friend. If her escape from marriage means Xue Lingruo marrying in her place, then she would rather marry into the Bai family.
After all, who says you can't get divorced after you get married?
If things go smoothly, they can get divorced right after the wedding ceremony.
Jiang Qiuyue tiptoed, pulled down the white veil on her face, and blended into the crowd.
She was going to the Bai family to meet the bride.
However, the Bai Mansion was under particularly tight security today, with countless experts. She could sense that their internal strength was superior to hers. If she forced her way in, she would be the only one to suffer, and Xue Lingruo might even be harmed.
At this moment, Jiang Qiuyue regretted her mediocre kung fu very much. Why didn't she practice more often? If her martial arts skills were higher, maybe she wouldn't have to be afraid of these people. She could just knock them down and beat up all the people from the Bai family.
Now, she could only stand anxiously outside the mansion, hiding in the crowd, waiting for the sedan chair to arrive.
The big red wedding sedan soon arrived at the Bai Mansion. Jiang Qiuyue frowned, but suddenly saw a corner of the carriage curtain slightly lifted. She saw the red lips under the veil, and said something in her direction.
do not worry.
It was Xue Lingruo who told her not to act rashly and not to worry about her.
Jiang Qiuyue understood Xue Lingruo and knew that she was sure of what she said, and her restless heart was quickly calmed down.
But she still stared at the Bai Mansion, watching the sedan chair completely disappear.
Suddenly, her shoulder was bumped. Jiang Qiuyue turned her head and found that the person who bumped into her was a man, also wearing a veiled hat.
