Wu Qiyu returned to Pinzhu Courtyard, and her mood had been a little low.

When Wu Qifan saw it, he asked with some curiosity: "Qiyu, what's wrong?" Didn't you eat the closed door soup of which young lady of the Lin family? ”

Wu Qiyu and Wu Qifan have always been not speculative for more than half a sentence, but said perfunctorily: "No, I'm just a little tired." ”

Wu Qifan refused to let him go, looked him left and right and said, "Why, can't you make up your mind which cousin, and you're upset?" ”

Wu Qiyu said with a straight face: "Second brother, it's about the reputation of your cousins, you can't chew the root of your tongue!" ”

Wu Qifan said disapprovingly: "Fourth brother, you are wrong. The women in this deep mansion compound are all upright on the surface, but in fact, their hearts have long been rippling. If you don't believe me, I can try it for you. ”

"You-" Wu Qiyu was angry and anxious, and as soon as he raised his hand, the purse that Lin Wuniang gave him flew out of his cuffs.

Wu Qifan's eyes were quick, and he immediately picked up the purse from the ground, and said with a malicious smile: "Qiyu, let's move quickly, whose cousin's masterpiece is this?" ”

Wu Qiyu snatched the purse a few times and didn't snatch it back, so angry that he flicked his sleeves and said, "If you like it, I'll give it to you!" ”

Wu Qifan pinched his purse and quietly asked Wu Qiyu's personal servant: "Which young lady of the Lin family did the fourth young master go to?" ”

The little guy scratched his head and said, "Go to Ranfangju first, and go to Yixinyuan later." ”

Wu Qiyu was overjoyed and said, "Then, which lady gave this purse to it?" ”

The little guy shook his head and said, "I'm all waiting at the door of the house, this, I didn't look at it." ”

Wu Qifan looked down at the purse in his hand, although he could see that the person who embroidered the purse was very serious, but the stitches were rough and the pattern was stiff, and it was made by raw hands at a glance.

These fourth, fifth, and seventh sisters are all the daughters of the Lin family, and they have grown up beside the eldest lady since they were children, and the female celebrity must not be too bad.

And the ninth sister lost her mother since she was a child, and no one took care of her, so this female red is almost understandable......

Wu Qifan clenched the purse in his hand.

Could it be that this kid Wu Qiyu has already caught up with Lin Jiuniang?

remembered that yesterday I sent someone to deliver Ruyi cakes to Yixin Hospital, in order to see Lin Jiuniang, but she was refused.

It is said that mother-in-law loves money, and sister loves pretty, which is true.

Seeing Wu Qifan's gloomy face, the little maid said again: "The fourth young master followed the Lin family's eldest and young grandmother to the Yixin Courtyard, otherwise, it is estimated that he will not be able to enter." ”

Wu Qifan suddenly realized, and couldn't help patting his forehead, secretly scolding himself for being really confused, how could he forget the eldest and youngest grandmother of the Lin family.

Lin Jiuniang is not recognized by the eldest master and the eldest wife, and the eldest young master Lin is busy with affairs, and she is usually under the care of the eldest and youngest grandmothers.

As long as you win the eldest and youngest grandmothers of the Lin family, won't it be twice the result with half the effort?

......

Steward Lin soon brought news from the Qin family.

"The Qin family said that it is okay for Suo Chun to be small, if he is right...... I guess no. But Qin Jiming has not yet married a wife, if he takes a concubine first, the Qin family is still a little unwilling. Steward Lin looked at Lin Jiuniang's face and said cautiously, "I think, or make an agreement with the Qin family to let Suo Chun be Qin Jiming's room first, and then raise her to be an aunt when Qin Jiming marries his wife." ”

Lin Jiuniang remembered the note pressed under the stone, and was also a little disheartened, and said: "Then you go and ask Suo Chun what she means, if she is willing, then do it." ”

Steward Lin saw that Lin Jiuniang was a little unhappy, so he stepped forward, bowed down and said, "Miss Jiu, the person who spread the rumors, I have already found out who it is." ”

Mama Han, who was standing on the side, hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”

Steward Lin sighed and said, "It's the prince of Zhongyong, Bai Xiuyang." ”

"What?" Mama Han was taken aback and asked, "Why did the prince do this?" Can you find out? ”

Steward Lin shook his head: "I only found out that the Marquis Zhongyong Mansion sent people to spread rumors, as for the purpose, it is not very clear." The Marquis of Zhongyong is not in Fuzhou now, and Mrs. Hou, the lord of Shurong, has the best face, and after thinking about it, it can only be done by the prince. ”

Lin Jiuniang said lightly: "Can there be any physical evidence?" ”

Steward Lin said in a low voice, "No." ”

Mama Han said hurriedly: "Miss Nine, if it is really the son of the world, then the son of the world ...... Do you want to use rumors as an excuse to deliberately repent of your marriage? ”

Lin Jiuniang asked unhurriedly: "Steward Lin, if the prince really repents of marriage on this ground, can he not return the 150,000 taels of silver?" ”

Steward Lin pondered for a moment and said, "According to the law of the Wangchao, a man and a woman enter into a marriage contract, unless one of them violates the law, the marriage contract cannot be easily annulled. The repentant spouse is required to return the property given by the other party and, if the repentant spouse requests it, the repentant spouse must compensate the other party for the damages. ”

"In other words, the prince of Zhongyong will not propose to repent of the marriage, unless he does not want the 150,000 taels of silver."

Steward Lin said in a low tone: "This is just a provision of the law of the Wangchao, but according to customs, generally if one party's reputation is damaged, the other party can also propose to withdraw from the marriage." As for the property involved, it is up to the parties to agree. Usually...... More or less a little bit back. ”

"Step back?" Lin Jiuniang asked, "How much to retreat?" ”

Steward Lin replied vaguely, "How much...... I'll step back a bit. ”

Lin Jiuniang sneered: "How much to retreat?" 150,000 taels for 1,000 taels, is it also called a little refund? ”

Steward Lin didn't know how to answer, so he had to be relieved: "Miss Nine, this matter has its own young master's decision, and I will also tell you secretly in private, so that you can be somewhat mentally prepared." Let me say more, if the Marquis Zhongyong's Mansion hangs over there, I think this fourth young master of the Wu family is not bad......"

Mama Han hurriedly asked, "What does the eldest young master mean?" ”

Steward Lin replied cautiously: "I don't dare to guess the thoughts of the eldest young master. ”

Lin Jiuniang smiled coldly and said: "Then please ask Steward Lin to persuade the eldest brother, don't take into account my reputation, if the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion really wants to make a fuss about this matter, you must fight them to the end." ”

Mama Han said worriedly: "But after all, the other party is the Marquis of Zhongyong's mansion, if it really makes a big deal, I'm afraid we won't be able to take advantage of it." ”

Saying that, Mama Han muttered again: "I thought it was a rumor released by the eldest lady and the fourth lady, but I really didn't expect that it would be a play staged by the Marquis of Zhongyong himself, in order to set the Lin family's silver...... This Zhongyong Marquis Mansion is really a masterpiece! ”

Lin Jiuniang stood up and paced slowly in the room for a few steps, and suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Bai Xiuyang did this, did he really want to get out of the marriage?

He is a dignified loyal and brave prince, is it embarrassing to marry a merchant girl, or is it a shame to put on a green hat before he marries the merchant girl into the door?

And if the Lin family really tore their faces with the Marquis of Zhongyong and insisted on acting according to the laws of the Wangchao, if it really got into court, the Marquis of Zhongyong would have to risk that the bamboo basket would be empty.

With a shrewd personality like Bai Xiuyang, how could he take such a risk?

Could it be ......

Lin Jiuniang suddenly remembered her previous life.

Whenever the eldest brother came to the Hou Mansion to visit him, Bai Xiuyang always looked like he was ignoring him.

In order to make Bai Xiuyang treat himself better, the eldest brother kept stuffing silver and stuffing things into the Hou Mansion.

Could it be that Bai Xiuyang's intentions are the same this time?

used rumors to discredit his reputation, so that the eldest brother was afraid that he would propose to withdraw from the marriage, so that he would double the compensation for him.

Will that be the case?
