Noble Lady

Accompanying Xue Chenyu and Xue Hou to the capital was Sun Ping'an.

That’s right, it was Xu Mama’s son, Sun Ping’an, who was a servant but coveted the daughter of the Marquis’s family.

When Xue Chenyu heard the news, her face darkened slightly before returning to normal. "He's just a clown, not worthy of my mother's attention."

The way she said it sounded a bit condescending like a daughter of a marquis.

But no one knows a daughter better than her mother. Xue Chenyu has never been the kind of person who looks down on others with arrogance. She knew there was something wrong when she heard this.

"Don't worry, I won't take such people to heart. But if you don't want me to get involved, I won't care. You should be careful. Little devils are difficult to deal with. People like this don't have any great abilities, but they are annoying."

"Don't worry, mother. I understand."

"Then Madam Xu, I'll have someone send it to you later."

Xue Chenyu: "Thank you, mother."

The mother and daughter smiled at each other, and the matter was over.

Afterwards, the mother and daughter went to the dining room and had dinner with Xue Hou, Xue Huai and the second girl Xue who had arrived earlier.

After dinner, Xue Chenyu went back to Furongju first, and then called Yuzhu and Xiahe to her side.

"Sun Ping'an has arrived in Beijing."

Yuzhu's expression turned unhappy at the first word. "Who the hell is that guy called Sun Ping'an? How dare he come to Beijing?"

"Sister Yuzhu, what happened to Sun Ping'an?" Xia He asked.

She came to the Marquis' Mansion later. Although she knew Sun Ping'an and that this man was Xu Mama's son, she had no idea of ​​his evil ambitions.

Mrs. Xue would never tell her in advance that the legitimate daughter of a marquis's mansion was being pursued by the son of a servant.

So she still doesn't know about it.

Yuzhu first looked at Xue Chenyu, and after getting her consent, she pulled Xia He to the side and told her about Sun Ping'an's presumptuous behavior of coveting the daughter of the Marquis's family.

Of course, it also mentioned that he wrote a letter to He Minzhi, spreading rumors in the letter that Xue Chenyu had an affair with him.

"That person not only doesn't know his own worth, but he even wrote a slanderous letter to He Minzhi to ruin her reputation. It's really disgusting!"

Whenever Yuzhu mentions him now, she can't wait to slap him in the face.

Xia He's face was tense, and murderous intent flashed in her eyes. "Who the hell is he? Is he worthy?!"

"Right, right? I really don't know where he gets his confidence from. He keeps saying he wants to be a good match for our girl. In my opinion, the one who can be a good match for our girl must be at least someone like Prince Cheng!"

Yuzhu was so excited that she couldn't control her voice.

Xue Chenyu covered her face with her hands when she heard this. Fortunately, there were no other outsiders here, otherwise if these words were to get out, how would she face people in the future?

"Enough." Xue Chenyu said in a deep voice.

Yuzhu and Xiahe turned around quickly, both like children who had done something wrong.

"Xia He, go over there later and find out what Sun Ping'an wants to do in Beijing this time."

"Yuzhu, go call Yumei and Qiuhua over here. I have something else to tell them."

"Yes."

Yuzhu and Xiahe both retreated.

Xue Chenyu bent her right index finger and started knocking on the table again.

……

At that time, Haokelai Inn was a good place to stay.

The waiter came out of Room No. 3 on the second floor and looked at the few copper coins on the tray. He couldn't help showing a look of disgust on his face.

"He acts like a big shot, but I didn't expect him to be a poor fellow. What kind of place is Shengjing? How can you treat a beggar like this with just a few copper coins?"

He curled his lips in disgust, regretting that he had rushed upstairs with his companions to deliver food to the scholar who had just checked into the hotel today.

"If I had known it was such a stingy poor scholar, I would not have gone there." The waiter muttered to himself, and was then stopped by a young girl in tight clothes who suddenly appeared from the corner.

In room number three.

Sun Ping'an, whom Xue Chenyu mentioned, was complaining while eating.

"Food in Shengjing City is really expensive. Just two dishes and a soup cost me two hundred coins. Why don't they just rob me? And it tastes so bad."

Sun Ping'an originally lived a very comfortable life in the academy and didn't need to come here to suffer such hardships.

Because he had a background in the Marquis' Mansion, people often tried to curry favor with him in the past two years, but he had a high opinion of himself and always looked down on those who tried to curry favor with him.

But in the past two months he has noticed that fewer and fewer people are trying to curry favor with him.

By last month, some people were even secretly talking about him, saying that he was a treacherous villain and that he was spreading rumors and making false accusations.

He was so angry that he grabbed the person and argued with him, and ended up bringing the matter to the headmaster. The headmaster didn't know the truth and told him to go home and reflect on his mistakes.

He spent some silver and after asking around, he found out that someone in the academy wanted to deal with him. They even compiled a list of his ten major crimes, which became a rumor. That's why the dean was unwilling to protect him.

He also wrote a letter to his biological mother who was far away in Shengjing and was Xue Chenyu's dowry mother, but he received no reply for a long time. He could only endure the days of living under the roof of others and being looked down upon by others at his father-in-law's house.

It was not until a while ago that He Minzhi wrote a letter asking him to come to Beijing.

"The man surnamed He is a smart man. He knew to ask me for help. Otherwise, with his ability, how could he possibly defeat those people in the Yong'an Marquis Mansion?" Sun Ping'an drank another half bowl of soup and continued to talk to himself.

When he first found the man named He, he wrote a moving letter, telling him about his past with Xue Chenyu.

I didn’t expect that man was such a coward that he didn’t even dare to divorce his wife.

However, He Minzhi said in the letter that he had divorced Xue Chenyu some time ago, and it was the Marquis' Mansion that used its power to force him to sign the divorce agreement, so he had no choice but to obey.

But he had long discovered that Xue Chenyu had an ambiguous relationship with other men.

This time, the letter was written to Sun Ping'an in order to let him testify and put Xue Chenyu, this fickle woman, firmly on the pillar of shame.

"Xue Chenyu, the eldest daughter of the Wu'an Marquisate, I'd like to see if you, a fickle woman who was divorced and has been having affairs with other men, still have the nerve to be so arrogant in front of me."

Sun Ping'an ate the pork and cabbage stir-fried together on the plate with big mouthfuls, as if the eldest daughter of his former master, the Marquis of Wu'an, was already in his pocket.

Xia He outside the door sneered.

Then he stuffed his mouth with something and mumbled proudly, "Oh, and there's the Marquis' Mansion. I've prepared a big surprise for the people in Wu'an Marquis' Mansion."

Surprise? Xia He thought to herself, I promise that once you enter Shengjing City, you will never leave in one piece.

She looked Sun Ping'an in the room from head to toe.

He is a poor scholar with bad character. He is not even as tall as Sister Qiuhua and his appearance is average. One can only say that he is decent, but he cannot be found in a crowd of people.

He was wearing a blue scholar's robe that was almost new, and a padded jacket on the outside. I don't know why he came up with the idea of ​​dressing like that.

In short.

Such a man would not even be worthy of the attention of the maids in the mansion, let alone the girl. How could he have the confidence to covet the girl who was as beautiful as the bright moon in the sky?

Pooh!

……

Summer lotus comes quietly and leaves quietly.

Sun Ping'an in the room didn't notice anything from beginning to end.

When they returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Xia He revealed all of Sun Ping'an's malicious intentions, and Xue Chenyu felt that it was disgusting to her ears.

"Tomorrow, you will hand over to Su Ying and ask her to send someone to monitor his every move. If there is any unusual movement, report it immediately."

"clear."
