Marrying a Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the

The young lady explained awkwardly, "I came here on behalf of my good friend. This is the headmistress of the Xing family in Jingcheng. Her maiden name is Chen Luoxuan!"

Madam Xing quickly stood up and said, "I pay my respects to the Princess and the Marquis!"

The eldest princess narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Hurry up and sit down. It's so late, you must have something important to do!"

Madam Xing got straight to the point: "To be honest, Your Highness, Princess, I've come to the Marquis' Mansion as Mo Lingyue's elder to propose to Miss Xiaoruan. I've brought a betrothal gift, and I hope you will take a look at it!"

She quickly stepped forward and presented the gift list to Lin Yiwan, her face full of respect.

Lin Yiwan didn't look through it, but said, "Xiaoruan just returned home. This is about her marriage, so we need to hear her opinion!"

Mrs. Xing asked in confusion, "How can she make the decision on her own? Isn't it said that marriage is arranged by parents and matchmakers?"

Lin Yiwan explained calmly, "There's no such rule in our house. We will respect her opinion, but we can't let a happy couple turn into a bitter one!"

Madam Xing said awkwardly, "Madam Hou is truly open-minded. If that's the case, then please invite her out!"

Lin Xiaoruan was brought up by Ling'er. After politely greeting everyone, she spoke gracefully, "Thank you for Madam Xing's kindness. My humble status makes me unworthy of City Lord Mo, so I cannot agree to your marriage proposal. Please forgive me!"

Mrs. Xing actually knew this would be the result a long time ago. The reason why she came here with so many people was that she wanted to tell Mo Lingyue that she, his aunt, had really tried her best for him.

In order to avoid being criticized, she naturally had to fight for it.

She said anxiously, "Miss Xiaoruan, don't underestimate yourself. Ling Yue has said before that you are the kindest woman in the world and that he likes you very much. You are a doctor and the sister of the Marquis's wife. How can you be considered an insignificant person?"

Lin Xiaoruan smiled bitterly: "Thank you for your appreciation, Lord Mo, but I have made up my mind. Madam Xing, please don't waste your breath on me!"

Mrs. Xing almost lost her smile: "You, you child, how can you be so stubborn?"

Lin Yiwan spoke at the right moment: "Since Xiaoruan has already refused, how about asking Madam Xing to go back and convey this to City Lord Mo?"

Madam Xing quickly agreed, "Alright, but even if the marriage proposal fails, I hope Miss Xiaoruan won't hold a grudge against it. Ling Yue has recovered thanks to Madam Hou's treatment, so I hope the two families won't become estranged!"

Lin Yiwan nodded: "It won't be strange. Madam Xing is welcome to visit our mansion anytime. Our door is always open!"

Mrs. Xing finally breathed a sigh of relief. This was the sentence she had been waiting for. She and Xing Xuexue were going to stay in the capital, and the Zhan Yihou Mansion was their greatest support.

The eldest princess quickly changed the subject: "The plum blossoms in my mansion are in full bloom right now. How about holding a plum blossom viewing banquet, summoning all the noble ladies in the capital, and having Madam Xing carefully select a girl for City Lord Mo?"

Mrs. Xing was flattered. She immediately stood up and thanked him, "Of course it's possible. Fortunately, there's the Princess. When my nephew finds a good match, I will definitely thank you!"

The eldest princess waved her hand and said, "I also think Ling Yue is a good kid. He has suffered a lot since he was young, so he deserves a kind and understanding girl!"

Madam Xing's eyes immediately turned red, and she sobbed sadly, "If my elder sister were still alive, she would definitely not want to see Ling Yue alone. It's the child's good fortune that he can be appreciated by the eldest princess!"

The princess stopped talking when she realized that this reminded her of her sad memories.

After about a cup of tea, the young lady of the Duke's Mansion took Madam Xing and left.

After the two of them boarded the carriage, the Duke's young lady asked doubtfully, "Ah Xuan, did you already know that this marriage wouldn't happen?"

Madam Xing sighed helplessly, "Yes, in fact, Xiaoruan has already told Ling Yue clearly, but he refused to give up and insisted that I go to his house in person to ask for his hand in marriage again!"

The young lady lowered her eyes and pondered, "It seems that Ling Yue thinks very highly of Miss Xiaoruan. Have you thought about what you will tell him when you return?"

Madam Xing frowned. "I've already called you over, but they still refuse. What can I do? Do I have to kneel down at Marquis Zhan Yi's house and beg? What will that mean?"

The young lady nodded. "That's right. Didn't the princess say she was going to hold a plum blossom viewing party? I'll pick carefully then!"

Mrs. Xing didn't say anything. She wanted to attend the plum blossom viewing party hosted by the eldest princess, but she didn't want to choose a wife for Mo Lingyue.

If she chooses someone with a higher status, wouldn't that make her look superior?

She can't go back to her husband's family, and in the future she will be the mistress of Prince Jing's Mansion.

She can't find a living ancestor to worship!

When I returned to Prince Jing's Mansion, I saw Mo Lingyue waiting at the door.

She couldn't help but frown: "It's cold outside, why did you come out?"

Mo Lingyue anxiously inquired about the results: "How is it? Did Madam Hou agree? Did Xiaoruan agree?"

Madam Xing said unhappily, "Child, could you please allow me to invite your Aunt Xian to the mansion for a cup of tea?"

The young lady quickly refused: "No, I have to go back to take care of the children in a hurry. If there is anything, just come to my house and find me!"

Mo Lingyue quickly thanked her, "Thank you, Aunt Xian, for making the trip!"

The young lady replied: "Of course!"

After saying this, he urged the carriage to leave quickly.

After watching her carriage disappear, Madam Xing finally said, "Even after a formal trip with your Aunt Xian, we still got the same result. Shouldn't you give up now?"

Mo Lingyue clenched his fists tightly, his eyes filled with resentment and disappointment.

He couldn't understand why the Marquis' wife would allow Lin Xiaoruan to stay with her. Didn't she want to marry her off?

Without further hesitation, he turned around and walked quickly towards the direction of Marquis Zhan Yi's mansion.

Madam Xing hurriedly stopped him, "Ling Yue, stop! Do you really have to ask for the result? Is your reputation so worthless?"

Mo Lingyue said stubbornly, "Aunt, Xiaoruan said she doesn't want to leave her sister, but does she have to live in the Zhan Yi Marquis's mansion forever? How is that possible? Even if she agrees, the Marquis's wife will have to refuse!"

Madam Xing asked, "Why would you refuse? They have a deep sisterly bond, isn't that possible? Lin Xiaoruan staying in the capital is a chasm that is difficult for you and her to cross, so why are you so persistent?"

Mo Lingyue's face was filled with an expression of struggle, and his heart was filled with a blocked and unrelieved air.

Seeing him like this, Madam Xing could only advise him: "The Princess said that she would hold a plum blossom viewing banquet for you to select a suitable noblewoman. You can take this opportunity to look at other women!"

Mo Lingyue decisively refused: "No, I only want to marry Lin Xiaoruan!"

Mrs. Xing interrupted directly: "If she doesn't want to marry you, are you still going to force her? She will hate you for the rest of her life!"

After saying this harsh words, she strode into the mansion.

Mo Lingyue looked at her back and felt extremely upset.

Lin Xiaoruan was not so worried. She was reporting Tang Qizhen's condition to Lin Yiwan.
