After the replacement marriage, I was forced to fight at home

Within two days, the entire Huainan Marquis Mansion knew that it was actually the second young lady who was engaged to the second young master of Shen County Prince Mansion. For so many years, everyone had been misunderstanding it, and even the people in the capital were so surprised that they couldn't close their mouths.

Meng Qi was sitting in the east room of Shanzhi Hall at this moment with his mouth wide open, a look of disbelief on his face.

"Mom, what's going on?"

"What's going on? What do you think is going on?"

Wang had a handkerchief tied around her forehead. She was sick again, this time because she was overthinking. The night Su Qing agreed, Wang cried for a long time and didn't sleep well all night. She felt that she had failed badly, and the next morning she felt dizzy and called the doctor in.

Meng Qi pulled at her handkerchief, "So, Su Qing really got married on my behalf?"

"You, say it again." Wang took off her handkerchief and threw it at Meng Qi, "How can you be so cold-hearted? She is your biological sister, why do you call her like that? For your sake, she even agreed to marry in your place, and you actually, you actually..."

"Madam, you can't get excited." Mother Guo hurried forward and gently stroked Wang's chest.

Meng Qi also knew that she had said the wrong thing. She took the handkerchief and put it on the table, then walked to Wang's side and said, "Mom, I was wrong. I was really wrong. I will never do it again. I mean, did Second Sister really agree?"

"What else? If she doesn't agree, how will your matter end? You know, if it weren't for your second sister, Mr. Zhou would have broken off the engagement with you by now. According to your grandfather's wishes, you will be sent to the temple in a few days."

"Ah? No way, I've already said it, that Hong..."

"That's enough. I told you not to think about it anymore. I have asked someone to find out. The Hong family has indeed started to discuss a marriage for Mr. Hong San, but it's not you."

Meng Qi stood up with a cry of "Impossible, who is that?"

"I don't know yet. I just know that it has been discussed. They say that the discussion will start next month when the two-year mourning period is over."

Meng Qi sat back down in disbelief. Could it be that she was really mistaken? But he looked at her like that and said those words. If he had no interest in her, why would he give her hope?

But no matter what, Meng Qi was very happy to break off the engagement with Zhou Yu. She had to admit that Su Qing, no, Meng Wan really helped her a lot.

"When your second sister comes back, you should thank her. Now you know the benefits of having a biological sister, right? If it weren't for her, your current situation would be very embarrassing, don't you know?"

Meng Qi nodded obediently. She was happy that she had called off the marriage with Zhou Yu, but she was also a little unwilling to give up that Hong Zhe had no interest in her. Should she find an opportunity to ask him in person?

But she really didn't dare to act on her own again. This time she had put herself in such a passive position. If they really wanted to meet again, she had to make arrangements well. Also, she had to get accurate information. She couldn't make the same mistake as last time, otherwise her grandfather would definitely send her to the temple.

Su Qing went to Meng Wei's yard every day these past two days to learn calligraphy from Zhang. She didn't dare to practice the calligraphy style of any great calligrapher now, she was satisfied with just writing horizontally and vertically, the brush was too difficult to use, if she had known that she would travel through time, she would have learned Chinese calligraphy as an elective course in college.

Seeing Su Qing going up the steps, Meng Qi quickly stood up, lifted the curtain of the east room, and smiled at Su Qing who had just come in, "Second sister, come in quickly. It's really hot today."

Su Qing was stunned at first by Meng Qi's attitude, but then she realized that this was to thank her for marrying Zhou Yu on her behalf.

"That's right. It's been very hot these past two days. Just now, Mother Kong said that it might rain soon."

"If it rains, it means autumn has really arrived. Every autumn rain brings a chill." Mother Guo continued.

Wang was very satisfied with Meng Qi's performance. Her resentment had dissipated. She reached out and called her two daughters over, pulling one in each hand. "You are sisters. Remember, no one can compare to you. Sister Qi, your sister has made such a great sacrifice for you. You must learn to be grateful. In the future, you must discuss things with your sister, especially when you are away from home. You must protect your sister more, understand?"

"I understand, mother. I will never be willful again. Second sister, I was wrong before, because of what you did before... So, I have never accepted it. This marriage with the Zhou family was my fault, but I want my second sister to help me clean up the mess. I, I..."

Su Qing didn't expect Meng Qi to say such a thing. It seemed that this little girl was not ignorant of the ways of the world, but was just protected too well and didn't bother to think.

"What are you talking about? We are sisters. If you have any problem, I will naturally come forward. And I have no objection to you marrying into the Zhou family. Don't worry, everyone has their own aura. Mr. Zhou Er may not be compatible with you, but he may be just right for me."

Su Qing thought, no matter if it was suitable or not, she would make Wang Xiaoer suitable. Of course, before the two of them discussed marriage, it would be best if they could meet, and there were some things that had to be made clear. Although it would not change the outcome of the marriage, it was very important for the two of them to get along in the future.

Prince Shen's Mansion.

"Mom, you don't have to worry so much. It might be a good thing for Zhou Yu to marry that cheap second lady." Hu's biological son, Zhou Zheng, the third son of Prince Shen's Mansion, sat in the west room of the main courtyard of Junyueju in the palace, tapping lightly on the table and speaking slowly.

"What do you mean?" Mrs. Hu looked up at her son.

Compared to Zhou Yu's sunny and vigorous beauty, the third young master is more feminine. His facial features are more like Hu's. He smiles all the time, but makes people feel as if he is wearing a mask.

Because he loves to laugh, people who know him but don't know him think that the third young master is very modest, generous, dignified and polite. Especially compared with his unreliable second brother, Zhou Zheng and Zhou Yu are two extremes.

"You should ask someone to find out. What Xiangyun Temple, what prayers, which good young lady would live in the mountains for twelve or thirteen years? I don't know where this wild girl came from."

"That's right. As soon as the news came out, I felt something was wrong, especially since it was too close to the Fourth Young Miss's affairs. At the time, I thought that this might be Wang's way of solving the matter. Now it seems that this is really the case. They created a non-existent Second Young Miss to marry in place of the Fourth Young Miss. Ha, this is also something that the dignified Huainan Marquisate would do."

"So, I say we don't have to worry. The Huainan Marquis Mansion is only capable of this much. Why should mother care? Not to mention that the one who married in is not the legitimate Fourth Miss but this fake one. Even if it is the real Fourth Miss, mother thinks that with the current state of the Huainan Marquis Mansion, when that day really comes, what can he do to help that playboy?" Zhou Zheng said disdainfully.

"That's right." Mrs. Hu listened to her son's analysis and exhaled softly, "I thought too much. Besides, we have already made an agreement with Mr. Hong San. When he takes action, we will find out what Meng Hai's final choice is, but it is true that he will never care about Huainan Marquis Mansion."

"Yes, let's take a step back and let's say that even if this second young lady is true, I mean maybe it's the prince's romantic debt outside. Just a girl like this, who has not been raised in the Marquis' Mansion since she was a child, how can she be educated? How has she seen the world? What kind of schemes can she have? As long as she marries in, mother can just use all means, whether it is to win her over, to intimidate, or to use both kindness and danger, it is not up to you to decide. In short, with her brain, she will definitely not be mother's opponent. Maybe she will do more to satisfy mother's wishes than if Meng Qi married in."

Mrs. Hu was relieved at this time. "Yes, that's right. Let's get married. I didn't expect Zhou Yu to agree. Haha, I think he is desperate and wants to try any medicine. As long as it's not Meng Qi, anyone will do. By the way, speaking of Meng Qi, when will Mr. Hong San go to propose marriage?"

"It will be soon. In a few days, he will have completed two years of mourning for his wife. It won't be too much. People in Beijing will give a thumbs up and praise Princess Jing's family. This is also the result that the prince wants."

Mrs. Hu was extremely pleased as she watched her son becoming more and more successful. She knew that the position of crown prince would definitely belong to her son and no one could take it away from him.

"Haha, I can't wait to see the mother and daughter's reactions after Mr. Hong San proposes marriage. Thinking back to the time when Wang Shi was so aggressive, I will make her pay back one day."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. That's it for my second brother. When dad asks about it again, you must not act like you did a few days ago. Last time, you made dad very unhappy because of what Meng Changfeng said when he came to the mansion. You must not do that again."

Mrs. Hu nodded. Yes, because she was urging him to cancel the engagement, he didn't say anything, but agreed to let Zhou Yu think about it for ten days.

"I understand. I will calculate the money Zhou Yu has squandered since he was a child in the next few days. I want your father to see what Wang left for her son. Don't accuse me of coveting her."

Zhou Zheng stood up and said, "Mother must have thought of saving that jade incense burner with cloud dragon pattern. I want to give it to Master Hong San as a gift."

"Don't worry, I've already saved some good stuff for you."

"Okay, I'm going out. My mother is busy arranging marriages for a while, so I won't come back often at school."

"Okay, the more useless he is, the more serious you should study. Just take care of your health, that..."

"I understand. No need to say more." Zhou Zheng waved his hand impatiently and strode out.

Mrs. Hu looked at her son who was starting to grow taller and suddenly felt that it was not a very pleasing thing for her son to be too mature.
