Chapter 258: Repentance
The golden jade hairpin ring has not been lost, but this token is missing!
A cold light flashed in her eyes - could it be Jingyu's hand?
Mother Qin was so anxious that she kept saying that she couldn't help Mrs. Xian...... Xiao Gu, you said that if you lost this token, will this marriage go wrong? β
Bihe also felt that strange and worried atmosphere, and secretly asked Xiao Gu.
There won't be any marriage at all...... Yuan Jin asked for himself just to get back the wooden box and half of the jade cong's token, but now that the thing has been taken first, I am afraid that not only the marriage has failed, but things have taken a sharp turn in an unpredictable direction!
Seeing that Xiao Gu was stunned, Bihe hurriedly pushed her, and Xiao Gu said, "I'll go over and take a look." β
"Yes, you can persuade the girl more, in fact, she is really pitiful, there are so many changes in this family, and even the marriage is not stable......"
Before Bihe's words fell, she saw a second-class maid rushing over, panting and saying, "Sister Bihe is not good, something is wrong!" β
"What's wrong again?"
When Bihe heard the words "no", she even tightened her heart, and only heard the maid say: "I heard the little brother in the front yard say that our girl was rescued by Young Master Xiao, and the fact that she spent half the night outside in the middle of the night has been publicized!" β
Bihe screamed, and then stomped her feet fiercely, "How can this be! β
There was fire in her eyes, and she said fiercely: "Is it the second lady's side again, I know that she is uneasy and kind!" β
Xiao Gu interrupted her, "This is not true, the second lady also has a daughter, and she is almost at the age of discussing relatives, and it is only bad for her to spread this kind of thing." β
Bihe was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said, "I don't care, I have to go back and look at the girl quickly, she shouldn't do anything stupid!" β

Ruyao was summoned to the upper room during dinner, and the matter spread throughout the Hou Mansion - as Xiao Gu had guessed. Mrs. Tai and the Wang family were not so stupid to defile the lintel, the matter was bad because of the few official children who went hunting in the forest with Xiao Yue.
They saw that Xiao Yue disappeared in a blink of an eye, and hurriedly caught up and saw him riding away with a young girl, so they thought that he had some kind of affair, so they sent someone to follow closely, and finally found that this was actually a cousin and cousin's "hero saving beauty", so these two people who didn't keep the door on their lips talked about it with relish.
"Brother Yue has already gone to their house to teach them a lesson, and their family is so angry that they can't use the family method, and they can't stand up anymore. As women, we always suffer, and it is not good to come to the door to reprimand these two immoral and trustworthy boys...... In short, the matter can only be forgotten at this point, Sister Yao'er, you want to open some yourself. β
Although Wang's words were comforting, he also tried his best to put aside his nephew, Ruyao's eyes were red and slightly swollen, and he didn't answer, but just turned his face to the side and was silent.
"You're also at fault for this - how can he not hijack others. Specifically for you? It must be when you provoked such filthy bandits and offended people......"
If the Wang family still knows how to pretend to comfort a few words, Mrs. Tai's words are simply a pain in the heart and lungs, which makes people faint when they hear it. Ruyao stood up suddenly, looking at her with a cold gaze, and the husband trembled in his heart and scolded angrily. "What kind of etiquette are you, a lady-"
Before I finished scolding, Yao's mother was probing her brain outside the door. Mrs. Tai hummed unhappily, "Second daughter-in-law, your family's rules are really good!" β
"Yao's mother is an old errand boy in the house, and the rules can't be stricter, she must have something urgent like this."
Wang is no longer accustomed to his mother-in-law's arrogance, a soft nail touched back, Mrs. Tai was even more sulking, and took advantage of the topic to play: "What is there to sneak in to find you, is there anything unseemly?" β
Wang was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled, "Mother Yao, come in, Mrs. Tai wants to ask you." β
Mother Yao came in, but the look on her face was a little strange, even shocked, but she saluted but looked at Wang a little hesitant, Mrs. Tai sneered: "It seems that I still can't move your people!" β
"Mrs. Tai, it's Mrs. Xiao Bu's political envoy who is here."
After Yao's mother finished spitting, Mrs. Tai sighed and said mockingly: "It's your sister!" Her son has just provoked this storm, and now he is here to blame us! β
Wang's family was also angry when he heard this-dare to love my nephew to save people and save the wrong person?
Mother Yao heard that Mrs. Tai was so confused, so she simply said in her heart, "Aunt Xiao said that she is here to propose." β
"Ah?!!h
Mrs. Tai and the Wang family didn't expect it, and suddenly shouted out in a lost voice.
****
Mrs. Xiao really came to mention Xiao Yue's marriage, and the object of the proposal was Ruyao!
This news spread to the inner courtyard like a whirlwind, and Ru Yao's side also heard the news, and was immediately shocked and entangled.
"My sister is a person with a fiancΓ©, this Xiao family is simply a bad person!"
Qin's mother reported conspiracy theories to her relatives on Wang's side.
"Mom, you always mention this fiancΓ©, but people are indifferent to our girl, you see that there is no door-to-door etiquette at six o'clock in the third festival, this time I went to the princess's mansion and fell into the water and suffered, and the princess and the Yuan Gongzi did not see any words of comfort - why hang yourself on the tree of the Yuan family?"
Bihe had a different opinion, and strongly advocated: "Then Xiao Gongzi, you have also seen it, not to mention that he was born as a talent, he is still both civil and military, and the last time he saved the girl, this is the fate of God-it is Mrs. Xiao, I heard that she is also kind and has no assertive temperament, and she is not as powerful as the second lady at all......"
"What do you know about a little girl!"
The two of them quarreled and argued, but Xiao Gu's heart moved when he heard it, and he was slightly relieved - although the thing was lost, if Ruyao could marry Xiao Yue, it would be completely clear from this matter, and it would be a good thing for her.
I just don't know, what does Ruyao think in her own heart?
Xiao Gu couldn't help but look at Ruyao who was sitting at the top, but saw that her expression was fluttering, but she frowned deeply, and the whole person lost her former spirit.
"What do you think, girl?"
Mother Qin said that she was tired before she remembered the main master, but she saw that Ruyao sat there stiffly as if she hadn't heard, and she shouted worriedly, "Sister Yao? β
Ruyao's eyes finally moved, "Mom, ......"
Mother Qin was distressed, "Sister, you are really miserable, this year is not good-"
Ruyao suddenly spoke, interrupting her complaining, "Mom, the cousin of the Xiao family and the second son of Yuan are close friends!" β
"Then how dare he come to propose-"
Mother Qin is not a stupid person, she knew that it was wrong when she asked this sentence, and after thinking for a while, she suddenly understood, slapped the table and said, "It turns out that the Yuan family wants to regret the marriage!" It's not a thing! (To be continued......)
