Favoring concubines and ignoring wives? The mistress of the marquisate remarried a powerful official

Song Lan's behavior surprised Guan Surong a little.

Logically speaking, Madam Guan is not Song Jing's biological sister, so naturally she is not his biological cousin. The matter of relatives' exchanges is not a big deal, but it is not a small matter either. Song Lan should explain it anyway, but now he has covered it up.

Although Guan Surong felt a little strange, she was secretly happy in her heart. If outsiders thought she was the niece of the general's mansion, she would be more respectable when she went out. If she had this identity, she would be even more powerful, and it would be much more convenient for her to act in Bishuitang.

The three of them went to the Bishui Hall. Lu Zijun and Guan Surong entered together. Zhen Yueqing, who was sitting inside, saw Guan Surong beside Lu Zijun and laughed, "Lu Zijun, it's really unexpected that there is a daughter of an official family willing to go with you. Which girl did you deceive again?"

Lu Zijun glanced at Zhen Yueqing and grinned at her, "What do you know? This is the general's niece. You should be polite to her."

Zhen Yueqing glanced at her lips lightly and laughed softly, "What's the use of a niece? She's not my biological daughter. If she were my biological daughter, I would still give her some face."

Lu Zijun was not willing to listen to such words, and immediately stood up to explain for Guan Surong, but was stopped by Guan Surong, "Sister Zijun, there is no need to defend me like this. I am not the biological daughter of the family, but an outsider living here."

While the two were arguing, Song Lan stood up and said to Guan Surong, "What nonsense are you talking about? Father really cares about my sister. She is no different from a biological daughter in the family."

Song Lan said, looking up at Zhen Yueqing meaningfully, with a fake smile on his face, "Miss Zhen, haven't you been taught a lesson enough last time? How dare you talk about our family's gossip."

Seeing Song Lan helping Guan Surong in this way, Zhen Yueqing didn't dare to say anything. She lowered her head and timidly began to fiddle with the book box she brought.

Yan Yuzhi, who was sitting in the back, heard the conversation of the people in front. Now looking at Guan Surong, she was wearing a lotus-colored dress, and the plain hairpins on her head also suited her very well. At first glance, she was much more beautiful than all the girls in the Bishui Hall.

Yan Yuzhi had other ideas. If Guan Surong was the biological daughter of the general's mansion, she would never dare to do it. Now, the happy thing is that Guan Surong is not the biological daughter of the general's mansion, but a niece. This is the best thing for the Yan family.

The classes at Bishui Hall only lasted two hours, and when the class was over, everyone had to pack up and go back home. Guan Surong sorted the book box in her hand, and looked at the faces of all the men in Bishui Hall intentionally or unintentionally.

After looking around, he soon found Yan Yuzhi sitting at the very end. Yan Yuzhi might have looked a little inferior in other aspects, but his appearance was unmatched in the entire Bishui Hall.

In order to help Yan Yuzhi marry the daughter of a high-ranking official, the Yan family paid special attention to his current dressing and appearance. He was dressed very luxuriously, and now people who didn't know him would really think he was the son of a high-ranking official in the capital.

Guan Surong was just thinking about asking the maid who followed her to find out something, but before she even left the house, Yan Yuzhi passed by the table next to her and accidentally knocked over a few sheets of rice paper on the table.

Guan Surong hurriedly reached out to pick it up, but Yan Yuzhi also bent down and picked up the rice paper on the ground, smiled at Guan Surong lightly, and said in a light and pleasant voice, "Miss, I really didn't mean it, please forgive me."

"It's okay." Guan Surong took the rice paper, her face blushing and she didn't dare to look up.

Guan Surong remembered that Madam Guan at home said that the people in Bishuitang were all the wives of officials above the fourth rank. Thinking of this, Guan Surong thought that the man in front of her was also the son of a high-ranking official in the capital.

But Guan Surong missed one thing. Bishuitang must be a special existence just like her.

Seeing that Guan Surong's reaction was different from that of other women, Yan Yuzhi knew that this girl was probably deceived by her appearance. If he pursued her, he would definitely find an opportunity. But now, further contact was needed.

Thinking of this, Yan Yuzhi was considering how to make the next progress with Guan Surong. Unexpectedly, when Guan Surong was carrying the book box and passing by him, she dropped a handkerchief at his feet.

Upon seeing this, Yan Yuzhi hurriedly picked up the handkerchief and put it in his arms.

This close-fitting handkerchief is extremely important to a woman, and now it has fallen at her feet... Yan Yuzhi showed an understanding smile on his face and strode out of the Bishui Hall.

On the return carriage, Guan Surong could not help but ask Song Lan about Yan Yuzhi, and whispered, "Cousin, do you know who the man sitting in the last row is from?"

Song Lan raised his head and looked at Guan Surong's appearance, and asked in a low voice, "Why are you asking this, cousin?"

"It's nothing. I just saw that he never listened to what the teacher said and only cared about sleeping. I thought he must be a child from a wealthy family, so I was a little envious." Guan Surong lowered her head and clenched her fingers pretending to be hesitant.

"He is indeed a child from a wealthy family, much better than our family." After Song Lan said this, he lowered his head and said no more, leaving Guan Surong to figure it out on her own.

This aroused Guan Surong's desire to win. If Yan Yuzhi's power was greater than that of the General's Mansion, what a high official position he would have to hold.

Song Lan was right. The Yan family was a prominent family in the capital. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were the richest. In terms of wealth, they were naturally much better than the General's Mansion.

The two returned to the general's mansion with their own thoughts. Guan Surong was now thinking about how to have further contact with Yan Yuzhi.

With this in mind, Guan Surong whispered to Lu Zijun next morning when Yan Yuzhi approached, "Sister Zijun, do you know any streets in Beijing that sell jewelry? I've just arrived in Beijing not long ago and haven't even had a good look around yet."

After hearing what Guan Surong said, Lu Zijun did not put on too much defense, but just smiled at Guan Surong and said, "Nan'anfang is naturally the busiest street in the capital now. If you want to go shopping and buy some jewelry, it's definitely right to go there."

Guan Surong had a faint smile on her face and said to Lu Zijun, "Thank you, Sister Zijun. I'll just wait and see tomorrow."

Yan Yuzhi gradually walked away from her, but Guan Surong was very sure that Yan Yuzhi must have heard what she said just now. So, she just waited for the encounter tomorrow.
