I just want to die of old age

Chapter 80: The Fight in the Marquis' Mansion - Cannon Fodder, Real Gold 12

Then the wife of the Marquis Mansion was inexplicably entangled, and asked with a somewhat unpleasant look on her face: "Ask the maid to bring her a bottle of medicine for her injuries."

Hearing this, Nanny Li smiled with some relief: "Madam, the Second Miss is your biological daughter after all. She will definitely be very touched when she receives the medicine you sent her."

The wife of the Marquis felt inexplicably awkward. She didn't know why she always felt reluctant to face her daughter.

Maybe it was because she had left me wandering outside since I was a child, and she felt inexplicably guilty, which made her feel very conflicted.

Her self-esteem would not allow her to bow to her daughter, so she could only treat me more forcefully.

After a while, I found a bottle of medicine in my hand. I felt confused and as if something strange had happened.

I asked the maid Xia Lan to put away the medicine. Now there are only Xia Lan, Dong Xiang, and Nanny Wen in the yard. They are trustworthy, and the others are yet to be confirmed.

At this time, Dongxiang ran in happily: "Miss, Master Shangguan is here.

I was full of curiosity and asked, "Dongxiang, who is Master Shangguan?"

"Miss, Master Shangguan is your betrothed husband."

"That's Su Mingyu's fiancé. It has nothing to do with me."

Suddenly, I recalled from the depths of my memory that there was indeed such a person, and he was the most talented person in the capital.

His father was Prime Minister Shangguan Bo, who was deeply trusted by the emperor.

In the original novel, Su Yuzhu fell in love with him the first time she saw him, especially after she knew that he was her arranged fiancé, she devoted herself to him.

But the one he likes is Su Mingyu.

The reason for their marriage was that Lady Hou and Lady Shangguan were good sisters before they got married, and the marriage was arranged when the babies were still in their infancy.

Originally, Su Yuzhu could have grown up with Shangguan Rui as childhood sweethearts, but unexpectedly, due to such a strange combination of circumstances, he is now in love with Su Mingyu.

It's a pity that Su Mingyu has greater ambitions and doesn't think highly of Shangguan Rui at all, but she has been keeping him hanging.

"Miss, there are many women in the capital who want to marry Master Shangguan?"

"Then he is not suitable for me either."

"But now Madam wants you to go meet Master Shangguan."

I was really full of questions at this time. Why did they suddenly ask me to meet Shangguan Rui?

But I still went with Dongxiang

When we arrived at the main hall of the Marquis' Mansion, we saw the Marquis's wife was receiving a handsome and elegant young man in gorgeous clothes. He was indeed a handsome man with a strong scholarly air.

I bowed respectfully to the wife of the Marquis and stood there in a daze.

But when the wife of the Marquis saw that I was not dressed up, she felt inexplicably sad that her daughter was really stubborn.

She still held back her complaints and introduced us to each other.

Shangguan Rui greeted me politely.

I looked distant and politely said, "Hello, Master Shangguan."

Then he turned to his mother and said, "Mom, what do you want me for?"

The wife of the Marquis's mansion hesitated to speak, but still said firmly: "When you were just born, you and A Rui were arranged to get married, but..."

"I see. I heard that Master Shangguan and my sister have a deep relationship, so I won't get involved. This marriage should be my sister's."

The lady of the Marquis's house was relieved when she heard what I said. After all, she didn't want to hurt the harmony between the two sisters.

Besides, it would be ugly if the news of two women fighting for one man got out.

Shangguan Rui looked at me deeply, as if he didn't expect me to say that, but he felt that I was even more thoughtful.

The wife of the Marquis looked at Shangguan Rui and liked him more and more. She said with a smile, "Arui, in this case, you can talk to your mother and exchange the wedding invitations again."

Shangguan Rui also had a look of joy on his face. After all, he came here just to deal with this matter.

"Okay, Aunt Xiang, I'll go back and talk to mother."

The wife of the Marquis handed him Su Mingyu's birth date and looked at him kindly: "This marriage is settled."

Finally, Shangguan Rui and I left the main hall together, and he stopped me when I was about to leave.

Shangguan Rui showed a mocking smile: "What you just said, is it the truth from Miss Su?"

I turned around and looked at him strangely: "Mr. Shangguan, what you said is very strange. I sincerely wish you and my sister well. Could it be that you have some misunderstanding?"

Shangguan Rui looked at my sincere eyes and couldn't help but narrow his eyes. He couldn't believe what he heard. There were so many noble ladies in the capital who wanted to marry him, but this was the first time someone ignored him.

Are you playing hard to get?

He couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

It turns out that she is very scheming. No wonder Mingyu suffered so much at Su Yuzhu's hands.

"I just hope you won't bully Mingyu anymore. You are living outside and have nothing to do with Mingyu."

I couldn't help but snorted coldly and said, "Mr. Shangguan, what you said is strange. When did I ever bully Su Mingyu?"

"Everyone in the capital knows about you, but I warn you, if you dare to hurt Mingyu, I will make you regret it."

I couldn't help but roll my eyes. He was just an ancient version of a domineering president. Who did he think he was?

"I'm not interested in hurting your Su Mingyu. As long as she doesn't provoke me, I won't bother with her."

"Stop talking nonsense. Mingyu has always been gentle and kind, and treats people well. As for you, I will never fall in love with you no matter what."

I sneered and felt goosebumps all over my body. "Please don't be so shameless. Don't think that I will be attracted to you just because you are the most noble young man in the capital. I can't even look down on someone like you."

Shangguan Rui was furious after hearing this, but he was a scheming man after all, so he suppressed the inexplicable anger in his heart and said calmly: "It's better this way."

After saying this, he flicked his sleeves and left.

I whispered, "How rude."

Dongxiang looked worried: "Miss, if you don't have this marriage, what will you do in the future?"

"Dongxiang, you can't judge people by appearance. Some people just look bright and beautiful on the outside, but they are useless."

I saw that the Prime Minister still looked worried, and I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

How old am I? Why are you worrying about my marriage so soon?

However, this time the broken engagement has brought about a drastic change in the plot, and it is fun to watch.

After all, I didn't oppose the breaking off of the engagement as strongly as in the original novel, and I didn't keep pestering her, which made Shangguan Rui upset when he saw me.

Instead, he supported Su Mingyu and Shangguan Rui to be together, and they successfully got engaged. Then, how would Su Mingyu be with the third prince? That would be difficult to deal with.

He laughed secretly in his heart. This was really a prank. He wondered if Su Mingyu would like this surprise.

I guess Su Mingyu is also very anxious now.
