The legitimate daughter returns, and everyone in the Marquis's mansion regrets and begs for for

Madam Zhou said with a smile, "This betrothal gift is my dowry for her. As for the betrothal money, we will save it for her. Muya, I will return the dowry to you when Yangge gets married. Although he is not our child, I have been raising him all these years, so it is as if he is our child too."

These three thousand eight hundred taels of silver were all the money she had painstakingly saved over the years.

"Grandma, please keep this money."

Zhou smiled and refused, saying, "Your cousin is a filial and good son. He certainly won't mistreat his younger siblings in the future. You should keep the money for yourself!"

"Grandma, you love him so much!"

Not only did Old Master Su dote on him, but Madam Zhou also loved him dearly.

Mrs. Zhou shook her head helplessly. She knew the money would eventually be given away, and she figured it was better to give it to her grandson than let someone else benefit from it.

Zhou said with a smile, "As long as your cousin can pass the imperial examination, he will have a bright future."

Su Muya scoffed, "If he were truly capable, how could he have failed even the imperial examination?"

She thought the child was a lazy good-for-nothing spendthrift, and that his success was all thanks to Old Man Su and Mrs. Zhou.

Zhou smiled and said, "Don't worry about him. He'll definitely rise to prominence in the future." She knew that this child would definitely pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi, so she was looking forward to seeing him achieve great success.

Seeing this, Su Muya didn't want to continue the topic, so she smiled and changed the subject, saying, "Grandma, is my cousin a filial and good child?"

She didn't have a good impression of Yang Wu; he was not only cowardly and timid but also very introverted. She felt that such a man couldn't support a family, otherwise he wouldn't have waited until now to get married.

"Yes, he is a filial son, but he is a bit reserved."

Su Muya nodded in agreement, "My cousin is also a reserved person, but he's very handsome!"

"Yes, that's why your cousin-in-law fell in love with him at first sight."

Su Muya shook her head dismissively. She thought Yang Wen was an introverted person. If Yang Wenchang were lazy and unwilling to work, he wouldn't have failed the imperial examination; he was someone who earned his living through his own hard work.

"I heard he is a gentle and virtuous person."

Mrs. Zhou said with a smile, "Your cousin and his wife are very loving, and your aunt also dotes on your cousin. Over the years, your aunt has been hoping that you would get married soon so that your cousin could settle down and have children. She knows that your cousin likes a gentle and virtuous wife, and she has tried to find him many suitable partners over the years, but he just won't agree."

Although Yang Wenchang was a good boy, he was a bit stubborn. Even his parents couldn't change his mind about things he didn't want to do.

Yang Wenchang was a very intelligent man, which is why he had failed the imperial examinations for so many years, causing his wife great anxiety. Knowing that he disliked studying, his wife arranged a marriage for him with a gentle and virtuous wife, hoping that he would have an heir soon.

Su Muya said with a smile, "Cousin, you are so lucky to have such a wife!"

Mrs. Zhou replied with a smile, "Yes, the couple is very loving, and your cousin's wife also dotes on your cousin, and your cousin spoils her too."

Su Muya glanced at Zhou Shi and said with a smile, "Grandma, you really love A-Wu!"

"You are our precious daughter, it is only right that we love you."

The next morning, Yang Wen sent gifts again, this time clothes and jewelry for her coming-of-age ceremony. Looking at the gift list, Zhou was filled with emotion.

Old Su said with a smile, "The Yang family is really generous. Mu Ya will definitely not suffer after marrying into their family."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Zhou nodded in agreement.

"Yes, I will take good care of my cousin."

She no longer has any expectations of getting married; she just hopes to find a reliable family so that she won't have to worry about being bullied in the future.

Seeing that she agreed, Zhou looked at Yang Zhong and said, "Cousin, from now on your wife will be your family. You must cherish her. If any outsiders bully her, you'd better watch out."

Yang Zhong lowered his head and replied, "Yes, Grandfather."

Su Muyang said with a smile, "Aunt, cousin, you should come and play soon!"

"Yes, we'll go back after spring."

After seeing off the Yang family father and son, Old Man Su looked at Madam Zhou and said, "My cousin just brought gifts. Go and check the amount of the gifts."

Yang Wenchang was a very intelligent man, but unfortunately, his ambitions lay elsewhere; otherwise, he wouldn't have failed the imperial examinations. Yang Wu, on the other hand, was a bit slow-witted, but he was diligent and hardworking.

Zhou said with a smile, "Alright, I'll give you the gift list for safekeeping now, and return it to Muya when she gets married."

She hoped that Su Muyang could befriend the Yang family so that they would have someone to rely on.

"You can keep them for them!"

Hearing this, Su Muyang felt a warmth in his heart. He smiled and replied, "Okay, I'll visit them after spring."

"Grandma, I'll go back to my room to rest now."

"Go and rest!"

Zhou watched Su Muyang leave the inn before turning back to the next room. Old Man Su, seeing her return, said, "A-Wu just brought gifts; go and check the amount."

Yang Wenchang was the youngest son of the Yang family. He was not only intelligent and capable but also very doting on his wife. Over the years, Madam Yang had been hoping that he would get married soon, but he just wouldn't. So Madam Yang had no choice but to set her sights on her grand-nephew.

Although Yang Wu was a bit slow-witted, he was honest and dutiful, and very considerate and gentle towards his wife.

Zhou said with a smile, "Alright, I'll give you the gift list for safekeeping now, and return it to Muya when she gets married."

"You can keep them for them!"

"it is good."

The next morning, Yang Wu sent another gift, this time clothes and jewelry for Su Muya's coming-of-age ceremony. Although Yang Wu was somewhat timid, he was a kind person.

Madam Zhou said with a smile, "Now that the marriage is settled, you should accept the gifts!"

Old Man Su waved his hand and refused: "It's alright, I've never blamed him, I know he had no choice."

"Grandma, please don't blame Dad, he had no choice."

Zhou replied with a smile, "Alright, we'll visit them after spring."

"Grandma, I'll go back to my room to rest now."

"Go and rest!"

Zhou watched Su Muyang leave the inn before turning back to the next room. Old Man Su, seeing her return, said, "My cousin just brought gifts; go and check the amount."
