Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Song Ruozhen and Luo Qingyin, sitting to the side, couldn't help but become interested in the conversation between the two mothers and subconsciously looked at Ruan Niantang not far away.

"Is that the daughter of the Grand Tutor's mansion?" Song Ruozhen asked in surprise.

Luo Qingyin nodded slightly. "Indeed, I've met Miss Ruan a few times before. Why do you have such an expression? Have you seen her before?"

"I did bump into her before, but I didn't know whose daughter she was at the time."

Song Ruozhen recalled seeing this girl when she accompanied her second brother on a trip before, but she didn't pay much attention to it at the time, taking it as just a coincidence.

I didn't expect to see her again at the mansion today, but Madam Ruan, the Grand Tutor, did not come, so I understood a bit.

"I heard that Miss Ruan has reached the age for marriage, and now the Grand Tutor's wife is looking for a suitable young man everywhere."

"If Miss Ruan is interested in Yi'an, it might be a good match," Luo Qingyin said with a smile.

Song Ruozhen chuckled upon hearing this, "Sister Luo, instead of worrying about my second brother, why don't you think about when to marry my eldest brother!"

My older brother is getting on in years, and he's really looking forward to marrying you as soon as possible!

Luo Qingyin blushed and looked at her helplessly, "Don't tease me. How can an unmarried girl say such things? Be careful that it gets out and people will laugh at you."

"There are plenty of farces in the capital these days. The Qin family is having one embarrassing moment after another. Who has time to laugh at me?"

"I've also heard about this. After Qin Xiangheng was taken to Shuntian Prefecture, the Qin family started making a scene there. However, the Yun family also went to confront him face to face, and neither side was willing to let the other go."

Luo Qingyin wasn't one to enjoy watching a spectacle, but the matter had spread so widely that it was hard for her not to know about it.

“It seems that the marriage between the Qin family and the Yun family has fallen through,” Song Ruozhen said, shrugging.

Luo Qingyin chuckled, "Why do you look like you're feeling sorry?"

“I originally thought it would be a good thing for Yun Xiwan to marry into the Qin family. Now that the marriage has fallen through, she will inevitably cause a lot of trouble after she goes back.”

"You're worried about Yun Nianchu, aren't you?" Luo Qingyin said knowingly. "But after something like this happened, even if she goes back, she'll need some peace and quiet for a while."

As she spoke, Luo Qingyin seemed to suddenly remember something and lowered her voice, saying, "Ruozhen, have you heard that Yao Jinsheng was beaten up?"

"When did this happen?" Song Ruozhen asked in surprise.

"Just a couple of days ago, I heard that the beating was pretty bad, and no one even knows who did it. However, I think there's something fishy about this."

We all know what kind of people the Yao family are. Logically speaking, after something like this happened, they should be making a big fuss about it and trying their best to catch the murderer.

It's really strange, actually. Instead of publicizing it, they seemed to be trying to suppress the matter, not wanting anyone to know.

Luo Qingyin looked thoughtful. "This is what my older brother told me after he came back from his investigation. Isn't that strange?"

"Two days ago?"

Song Ruozhen raised an eyebrow, unconsciously recalling how her third brother had sneaked back in the middle of the night a couple of days ago.

She was just about to go out and catch them red-handed when she noticed her older brother following closely behind her, so she didn't go out.

It seems the two of them went out late at night to do something important. As for why Yao Jinsheng didn't dare to publicize it, she roughly understood.

Address the problem at its root.

As expected of a big brother!

Seeing that Song Ruozhen was not only not curious but also laughed, Luo Qingyin was about to speak when she suddenly heard a scream from ahead.

"what--"

"Oh no! Miss Ruan and Miss Tian have fallen into the water!"

Liu Ruyan stood up anxiously, "How could you have fallen into the water out of nowhere?"

"Mother, don't worry, I'll go take a look."

Song Ruozhen rushed towards the place where the woman had fallen into the water. The place was in chaos, with the ladies and young women surrounding the area, but none of them knew how to swim.

The servants hurriedly went to find someone who could swim, but the two people struggling in the pool seemed to be about to give up.

"Young Master Song, please save Jiao Jiao! She can't swim!" A girl pleaded anxiously with Song Yi'an.

Song Yi'an frowned, seeing that the person was about to collapse. Just as he was about to jump down to save the person, Song Ruozhen stopped him.

"Second brother, don't go, I'll do it!"

Song Yi'an noticed her fifth younger sister's serious expression and immediately nodded, "Okay."

Song Ruozhen jumped into the water, but instead of saving Tian Jiaojiao, she went to save Ruan Niantang.

Tian Jiaojiao was still able to struggle in the water, but Ruan Niantang had already sunk. If she wasn't rescued soon, her life would be in real danger.

However, as she swam toward Ruan Niantang, Tian Jiaojiao grabbed her.

"Young Master Song, please save me!"

Song Ruozhen: "?"

“Miss Tian, ​​I am Song Ruozhen, not my second brother.”

Tian Jiaojiao was stunned. She had clearly heard Song Yi'an say that he wanted to save her, so how did it suddenly become Song Ruozhen?

She subconsciously looked up and saw Song Yi'an looking down with concern, so she immediately grabbed Song Ruozhen tightly.

"Miss Song, I'm dying! Please help me up here!"

Song Ruozhen was good at swimming, and she could tell from Tian Jiaojiao's appearance that the girl was faking it. Ruan Niantang was the one who really couldn't swim.

“Miss Tian, ​​you’re a pretty good swimmer, so you should be able to hold out a little longer.”

Song Ruozhen shook off Tian Jiaojiao's hand and continued swimming towards Ruan Niantang. However, Tian Jiaojiao seemed determined not to let her leave, holding onto her tightly with both hands.

"I can't swim, please help me!"

Tian Jiaojiao struggled desperately, as if in a state of extreme panic, but in her heart she was secretly cursing Song Ruozhen for ruining her good plan!

Do you still want to save Ruan Niantang?

dream!

A sharp pain shot through Song Ruozhen's hand where it was being gripped, and she couldn't help but feel annoyed. She retaliated by punching Tian Jiaojiao.

She's not a man, she doesn't have the habit of hitting women!

Tian Jiaojiao groaned, tears welling up in her eyes from the pain, though they were mixed with the pool water and couldn't be seen clearly.

Song Ruozhen quickly found Ruan Niantang, who had sunk to the ground, not far away. She was unconscious and her face was as pale as paper.

"Quickly, take her upstairs."

Seeing that Song Ruozhen had rescued Ruan Niantang, Chenxiang and the nannies quickly pulled her up as well.

"Miss Song, my sister Jiaojiao is still in the pool, please go and save her!" Tian Ziyi said anxiously.

Song Ruozhen looked at Tian Ziyi, who was feigning panic, and Tian Jiaojiao, who was still struggling underwater, and a hint of impatience flashed in her eyes.

“Miss Tian, ​​you’re not a bad swimmer. When you were pinching me underwater just now, you were as strong as an ox. You struggled for so long but didn’t sink. Anyone who can swim knows what’s going on. Why do you have to keep pretending?”

Upon hearing this, both Tian Ziyi and Tian Jiaojiao froze, their faces filled with disbelief.

Song Ruozhen's sudden move has left them in an awkward position.
