Chapter 199: Deliberately
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Madam Wu had been involved in such a scandal in Upper Forest Court, but she still maintained a strong facade, chatting and laughing in front of the officials and young ladies.
Su Yingxue approached and listened in. Their conversation revolved around Su Hao and Wu Ruofei.
Madam Wu and her close friend, Madam Lin, stood together, accompanied by several other ladies with their daughters.
To save Madam Wu’s face, Madam Lin held Wu Ruofei’s hand and remarked, “Ruofei has grown into a graceful young lady. She will soon be a young woman ready for marriage!”
“Madam Lin, you jest,” Wu Ruofei replied shyly. She had been elated for days, unable to sleep, ever since she succeeded in marrying Su Hao by framing him. Now, upon hearing these words, her excitement only grew.
The other ladies maintained polite appearances. One of them inquired, “1 wonder which young master Ruofei has married? Who could be the son-in-law of the Minister?”
“Our Minister’s Estate holds a high status, so the suitor must have both status and capability,” Madam Lin playfully teased.
“All, Madam Lin, Madam Wu, please don’t keep us in suspense! I’ve heard that Ruofei and the young general from the Marquis of Martial South’s household are deeply in love. They’ve even…” The lady’s eyes held a meaningful gleam as she smiled.
“Madam, our Ruofei is not a frivolous girl. Marquis Su is from a family of generals, and the young general is straightforward. Our Minister’s Estate had no choice but to agree to this marriage. Thankfully, Marquis Su has promised not to mistreat our Ruofei. Otherwise, 1 would never allow my daughter to suffer,” Madam Wu proudly proclaimed, noticing Su Yingxue not far away. contemporary romance
With her words, she shifted the blame for Wu Ruofei’s framing onto Su Hao, making it appear as though it was his fault.
“What a frustrating situation! Wu Ruofei, that delicate girl, is unworthy of the young general! 1 admire him!” Lin Sisi exclaimed, clearly upset.
Su Hao, standing beside Su Yingxue, darkened upon hearing this.
Su Yingxue squeezed his hand and offered a bright, reassuring smile. “Don’t worry, brother.”
She held the handkerchief and walked into the crowd of Madam and Miss. She continued what Madam Wu had just said, “Since Minister Wu has agreed to this marriage, it brings joy to all of us! Our Marquis’s Manor and my elder brother are eagerly welcoming Miss Wu into our family!”
Su Yingxue politely held Wu Ruofei’s hand. “Dear future sister-in-law, we are now a family. Please don’t hold past events against me!”
Wu Ruofei was taken aback and quickly withdrew her hand from Su Yingxue’s grasp. “Su Yingxue, are you out of your mind?! Why would you agree to my marriage to your brother?”
Su Yingxue blinked innocently. “Both our families have already agreed to this marriage. Future sister-in-law, why say such things? Moreover, marriage is determined by parents and matchmakers. How could 1 disagree? While our Marquis’s Manor consists of military personnel, we must still uphold proper etiquette! When you, sister-in-law, join us in marriage, with me, Su Yingxue, by your side, I won’t let you suffer.”
Wu Ruofei looked as if she had seen a ghost. Even the composed Madam Wu beside her was filled with doubt.
What was Su Yingxue up to?
Su Yingxue displayed grace and generosity, and she even asked Wu Ruofei deliberately, “My brother is over there.. Would you like to go and speak a few heartfelt words to him, future sister-in-law? After all, you’ve admired him for so long, and your wish has finally come true!”
