The mistress of a marquis's family divorced her husband and married someone else: the scumbag&#

Since these people are so determined to get her money, they should be prepared to suffer the consequences.

Not just anyone can take her things!

On this side, Chu Beiyu personally sent Su Wan to the outside of the Shangshu Mansion.

"My Lord, my sister's matter..."

On the carriage.

Su Wan snuggled in Chu Beiyu's arms, her voice sounding more aggrieved.

Looking at the person in his arms, Chu Beiyu felt more and more pity, "Ye Qingluo is a stubborn woman! You don't need to pay attention to her when you see her in the future."

"Wan'er, you just need to remember that you are the only woman I want to protect in this life."

Su Wan nodded gently. Despite Chu Beiyu's "guarantee", Ye Qingluo's words were still like a thorn in her heart that could not be removed.

She thought for a moment, and then said to Chu Beiyu, "My Lord, if the engagement is postponed, my sister is right. If there is no courtesy between you and me, I don't mind it, but I am afraid that some rumors will spread, which will be detrimental to you, my Lord."

Chu Beiyu's face changed and his expression became quite complicated.

"Wan'er, what do you think?"

Su Wan bit her lower lip, with tears in her eyes, looking very charming in Chu Beiyu's eyes.

"My Lord, can we get engaged first? This way, we will have a good reputation and my father will definitely help us."

After Su Wan mentioned Minister Su, Chu Beiyu swallowed the words of refusal that were about to come.

He didn't have much silver in his hand at the time, and he had offended His Royal Highness the Regent because of the incident at the palace gate.

If he can no longer get the support of Minister Su, his military achievements alone will be of no avail.

Both marriage contracts and engagements require silver, but the amount varies greatly.

After all, he only had 30,000 taels in his hand. Even if he was engaged, he would need to pay half of the bride price, so he would only have 10,000 taels left. How would he live the rest of his life?

"Master Hou?"

Seeing Chu Beiyu was slow to speak, Su Wan suddenly became a little nervous. It was not until he came to his senses that she asked, "My Lord, what's wrong with you?"

"No... I just thought that the method you proposed is indeed feasible, but the issue of the prize money..."

Su Wan seemed to understand something and said, "My Lord, if you are worried about the money, I have five thousand taels, which may help you solve the current difficulties."

"Five thousand taels?"

When Chu Beiyu heard that there was silver, his eyes lit up again. He held Su Wan's hand tightly and said excitedly, "Wan'er, are you serious about what you said?"

"Of course." Su Wan looked shy. As long as she was allowed to enter the gate of the Marquis' Mansion, she would not have to worry about anything else.

I can also teach that bitch Ye Qingluo a lesson!

For this reason, five thousand taels is nothing to her!

……

In the next few days, no one knows what Chu Beiyu said to Old Madam Chu, which made the old lady smile. Even when they happened to meet, Old Madam Chu was not as sarcastic as before. She just snorted at her and left with the maid.

Not only Old Madam Chu, but even Su Wan never came again after that.

Old Madam Chu did not ask about it, probably because she knew about Su Wan's affairs.

Rather than keeping quiet, she would rather think that these people are planning something big again.

She doesn't care about anything else, but if you want to target her, don't blame her for being rude.

"Madam, have you heard that the Marquis will be engaged to the County Lady in two days?"

As soon as Ye Qingluo returned to the yard, he saw Cuizhu hurried forward and told him what he knew.

"engagement?"

"Yes, I heard from the housekeeper that the Marquis personally brought up the matter at the Shangshu Mansion. Now that the news has spread, it should be a done deal."

Cuizhu felt sorry for her wife just thinking about this.

Over the past three years, if it weren't for the Madam's management, the Marquis' Mansion would not be in its current state. I thought things would be different after the Marquis' return, but I didn't expect that he would bring a woman back from outside.

"If they are engaged, then what happened in the past few days would make sense."

"Cuizhu, let's just do our own thing and don't worry about these things."

"Just one thing, if anyone dares to start trouble, just fight back."

"Don't look for trouble, but don't be afraid of it either. If you really get into trouble, I'm here for you."

Cuizhu nodded, her tone full of excitement.

Now she was sure that her wife's personality had really changed!

Because of the compensation and the notice, the people who were originally prejudiced against the medicinal materials gradually calmed down after learning the whole story, and they even had more respect for Ye Qingluo.

After all, this matter was caused by Zhong Huai, and the wife of Marquis Pingyuan could have easily pushed the matter away, but not only did she not do so, she stood up instead.

How many people can do this alone, not to mention the compensation and extra silver.

After this incident, Ye Qingluo gained some favorability in the hearts of the people.

After noon, Ye Qingluo came to Huichun Hall from the Marquis' Mansion.

"Ma'am, you are here!"

Li Er saw Ye Qingluo smiling, and Caiyue, who was counting the accounts, quickly put down the account book and abacus in her hands.

"lady."

Seeing Caiyue, Ye Qingluo smiled and asked, "Can you adapt here?"

"Yes!" Caiyue replied, and then glanced in the direction of Li Er, "But I don't know much about medicinal materials and medical treatments. I can only help with the accounting and counting of the amounts. I can't help much."

"These are far less than your kindness, Madam..."

Caiyue said with shame that it was because Ye Qingluo asked the doctors in Huichuntang to treat her mother for free that her mother's condition got better.

"If you really feel bad about it, then work hard. During this period, you will not lose any money."

Caiyue opened her eyes wide and quickly declined, "Madam, how can this be possible..."

"One yard owned by a yard."

"Yes, Miss Caiyue, since Madam has said so, you should not refuse." Li Er said with a smile. Their Madam has always been so kind and benevolent.

Seeing Ye Qingluo preparing to go to the inner room, he hurriedly said:

"Madam, a distinguished gentleman just said he is your acquaintance and is waiting inside the house."

"The imposing... young master?"

Ye Qingluo hesitated. According to normal rules, he should not wait for her to come before inviting her in. Why did she go straight into the inner room?

That place was where she used to handle other things and rest. Even the servants and doctors who prepared medicine in Huichun Hall were not allowed to enter.

Li Er realized this and lowered his head to explain, "Madam, it's not that I didn't stop him, but the aura of that young man was too strong, and he kept saying that he knew him."

"Even the house was found by the young master himself. I was also shocked when I saw it..."

Otherwise, how could he have taken the initiative to bring outsiders in.

"Really? Then I'd like to see who this person is..."

Ye Qingluo curled the corners of his lips, becoming more and more curious about the person Li Er was talking about.

But when she entered the inner room, she saw that there was no one there.

Didn’t you say that the person is here?

Ye Qingluo was thinking about it, but heard a lazy voice coming from behind him.

"You...are you looking for me?"
