Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

He immediately said in a stern voice, "Such a good marriage is really hard to find, Yue'er, this matter is settled."

"Father said he would respect my opinion." Meng Xiyue said coldly, "I will never marry him."

"I respect you, but I also said there is a one-month deadline."

Meng Xiyue had humiliated him time and again, and his patience with his daughter was almost at its limit.

"It's not up to you, a girl, to decide what your parents have ordered or what the matchmaker has said."

"Besides, you should have some self-awareness. With your current reputation, you should be grateful that Mr. Jiang is willing to marry you. How can you still be as willful as before?"

Hearing this, Jiang Chubai curled the corners of his lips. To be honest, he did like Meng Xiyue.

He liked her both for her looks and her spoiled and willful personality.

At the same time, he also felt that Meng Xiyue was only suitable to be a concubine and not a wife.

He thought so when he was in junior high and high school, and it is even more so now.

What's more, Meng Xiyue has lost her innocence, so it would be fake for him to say that he doesn't mind.

If King Liang had not asked him to marry Meng Xiyue, he would never have married her as his second wife.

Meng Xiyue is ungrateful and is even acting like a spoiled brat.

"Getting married is a big deal, and there's still a month left, so why not let Yue'er think about it carefully?"

Wen said this in a low voice, trying to give Meng Qingxiang a way out.

"No need. No matter when, I will never marry him, Jiang Chubai."

Meng Xiyue still said firmly that people like Jiang Chubai must be rejected directly.

Otherwise, any action you take will be interpreted by him as playing hard to get.

"Meng Xiyue..." Meng Qingxiang roared, "It's not your turn to make the decision in this family."

"master…"

Wen was so scared that she quickly stood in front of Meng Xiyue, fearing that he would get angry and attack her.

"Master, Madam, the young master of the Zhou family is here."

The servant's message broke the tense atmosphere.

"Young Master Zhou? Whose family is that?"

Cui frowned. How come she had never heard of Mr. Zhou?

"Zhou Chengjing."

Seeing the person coming, Jiang Chubai immediately put on a smile and asked, "Why is Mr. Zhou here?"

Although Zhou Chengjing was a businessman, he was a royal merchant with strong financial resources, and had always been a target that King Liang wanted to win over.

Even King Liang was somewhat polite to him, so Jiang Chubai naturally wanted to please him.

"Mr. Jiang is here too. It's really lively today."

Zhou Chengjing said politely, "I am Zhou Chengjing. This is my first visit to the Meng family. I have brought a small gift. I hope you will accept it."

A small gift, looking at the two large boxes of gold and silver jewelry in front of me, if this is still considered a small gift, then no gift can be called valuable.

"Are you Zhou Chengjing, the richest man in Yuanqing?"

Meng Qingge exclaimed in surprise. In order to find a good husband, she had learned all the information about the young men from the noble families in the capital.

Especially the ideal man that all the women in Beijing want to marry.

In addition to Prince Qi, there is also the Duke's Prince, and that is Zhou Chengjing.

He is handsome and wealthy, which woman would not love him?

Unexpectedly, he was even more handsome than I thought.

But unfortunately, no matter how good he was, he was still a merchant and was excluded by her.

Meng Qingge raised her chin. The man she wanted to marry must be an official.

"Hello, Mr. Zhou."

Meng Qingxiang knew about the richest man. The Zhou family was wealthy, although they had no officials in the court.

However, the entire Yuanqing economy is almost entirely controlled by the Zhou family, and their status is comparable to that of a Shangshu.

This person was once someone he couldn't contact even if he wanted to, so how come he suddenly came to visit the Meng family?

"I wonder why you are here, sir?"

"I'm here to see Miss Meng." Zhou Chengjing looked at Jiang Chubai, "Master Jiang, what are you doing?"

"I am here to propose marriage to Yue'er."

Jiang Chubai did not hide it, but he was not sure what the relationship between Meng Xiyue and Zhou Chengjing was.

"Propose marriage?"

Zhou Chengjing suddenly laughed, "Miss Meng can find any family she wants, so why would she want to marry a man like Lord Jiang who has a family?"

"I'm sure Uncle Meng wouldn't agree to push his daughter into this kind of situation."

Meng Qingxiang was stunned. Marrying Jiang Chubai was definitely not like walking into a fire pit.

Zhou Chengjing said this, could it be that he also wanted to marry Meng Xiyue?

But he didn't say it directly, and Meng Qingxiang was too embarrassed to ask.

He only said, "Of course, this depends on Yue'er's opinion."

"I don't want to, you can leave." Meng Xiyue still said this.

Jiang Chubai's face darkened. "Mr. Zhou, do you think he wants to propose marriage? But she doesn't want to be a concubine. I wonder if Mr. Zhou knows that."

In his opinion, Zhou Chengjing was like this, and it didn't matter because he was attracted by Meng Xiyue's beauty. At most, he would just take her as a concubine.

Zhou Chengjing's face turned grim.

"Zhou has no legitimate wife, and if anyone wants to make Miss Meng a concubine, who is both talented and beautiful, he would be blind."

"You..." Jiang Chubai looked at him in disbelief, "Are you willing to marry her?"

"Whether to marry or not naturally depends on what Miss Meng wants."

Zhou Chengjing said to Meng Qingxiang again, "Can I have a private chat with Miss Meng?"

"Of course you can, Mr. Zhou."

Meng Qingxiang quickly gave Meng Xiyue a wink.

After the two left, Meng Qingxiang smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang, I'm so sorry, look at this..."

He never imagined that this daughter would be so popular.

"No problem. There is still a month left. Let Yue'er think about it carefully."

Jiang Chubai also found a way out for himself.

It was King Liang's intention to marry Meng Xiyue, but if he knew that Zhou Chengjing also had feelings for Meng Xiyue, he might not let him marry her.

He wanted to go find King Liang and tell him about this.

Then make plans for the next step.

"Then I'll leave first."

After saying that, Jiang Chubai left.

Cui forced a smile and said awkwardly, "I said that with Yue'er's looks, she wouldn't have to worry about her in-laws. The news of her marriage was just released for one day, and two people came to her house. They are both the ideal husbands that everyone in the capital is vying for. Yue'er is really capable."

"Yeah, it seems I really have to be picky."

A gleam of light flashed in Meng Qingxiang's eyes.

"Serve people with your beauty."

Meng Qingge stomped her feet in anger and turned away.

She was an abandoned person with no reputation, but she could still make so many men fall in love with her.

I don’t know what foxy tricks he used.

Think about herself. The man who came to propose marriage was not even half as good as Jiang Chubai, let alone Zhou Chengjing.

I am a legitimate daughter and I am talented, so how can I be inferior to Meng Xiyue.

These men are so blind, they only look at appearance.

She sat in front of the bronze mirror, looking at her appearance carefully. Although she could not compare to Meng Xiyue's character, she was also a pretty beauty.

Why don't those men fall in love with me?
