Marquis Jinning was angry, but he still accepted it in the end. After all, it would be very bad for the reputation of his daughter's family to regret marrying someone else who had made a previous engagement.
Although he, a martial artist, doesn't do this, but the world does, and he is not stupid. If he did such a thing for nothing, wouldn't this make his granddaughter live an unstable life? !
"In this case, after Ah Wan gets married, we will send someone to ask Prince Zhao's palace for their opinions."
Su Xun immediately responded: "Yes, my son has written it down."
"The only ones left are Afu and Aran, you two..." Marquis Jinning's eyes turned, Wang slapped him, he paused, and finally turned his gaze to Su Ran said, "Aran?"
Su Ran stood up and lowered her head slightly so that her emotions could not be seen clearly: "Grandpa."
Marquis Jinning asked her, "Are you willing? If you are willing to get married, my grandfather will add an extra dowry for you."
Su Ran was so weak that she could only hesitate to say: "If it is my grandfather's arrangement, I will naturally be willing to do so, but I don't know if Mr. Li is willing. Although it is the words of a matchmaker ordered by his parents, but the children of this world are I always want to find a good match for the rest of my life, but if the two of them can't get along, it will be a lifetime of misfortune."
Su Ran said, her expression a little gloomy, and she slowly lowered her head: "I was originally a concubine, so I am lucky to marry a husband like Mr. Li. Naturally, I cannot compare with the fourth sister. I heard before that The maid of the fourth sister said that the prince is interested in the fourth sister. In this case, I am naturally willing to fulfill his wish."
Marquis Jinning suddenly stood up, his eyes widened, and asked loudly: "What did you say?!"
Su Ran was a little confused: "Grandpa, granddaughter said that if Mr. Li is willing, I will naturally be willing."
Marquis Jinning was angry and asked again: "I asked you what happened to your fourth sister just now?!"
Su Ran seemed a little scared. She shrank her neck and spoke hesitantly: "Say, the maid of the fourth sister once said that she was interested in the fourth sister...Grandpa, I, I am not. Although the prince is married, the prince is a The crown prince is worthy of being a concubine, and the fourth sister is really good..."
"Afu!" Marquis Jinning was furious and slapped his hand on the table, causing the tea cup to fall to the ground with a bang.
The people in the room didn't dare to take a breath, and Su Wan lowered his head even further.
Mrs. Wang quickly comforted him: "Why are you angry? I haven't figured out this yet. Why are you angry?"
"Afu, come and tell me!"
Su Fu sat on a round stool behind Su Wang and Wang. She wasn't angry when she heard this, and she didn't respond to the inquiring looks from her parents.
This was the case in the previous life. Originally, Su Ran was the most suitable person to marry in the house, but Su Ran accidentally brought up the matter between her and the prince. Marquis Jinning was the emperor's confidant, loyal only to the emperor, and was a royalist. Now that the emperor's sons are all grown up, at this time, they will definitely not let their children get married to the prince and get caught up in partisan fights.
Even if that person is a prince, it is no exception, and he is still a prince who is already married to a prince.
In anger, Marquis Jinning was afraid that he would marry her off to someone else, and now this Li Lin just met this condition.
In her previous life, she was stupid and told her grandfather about the matter without angering him, so she asked Li Lin to choose between her and Su Ran.
It's really ridiculous that a down-and-out disciple from a poor family dares to pick on her and refuse.
Su Fu took a breath secretly, but smiled on her face: "Grandpa, don't be angry, things are not what you think."
Marquis Jinning paused and looked at her carefully: "Then tell me, what is going on?!"
Su Fu slowly looked at Su Ran, who was wearing a white embroidered magnolia dress, then laughed and said slowly: "I don't know where the fifth sister heard the rumor. You said you heard my maid talking about it. , is there any witness?!"
Su Ran didn't expect that Su Fu not only didn't throw herself into confusion, but instead asked her back. She bit her lip and had to explain: "My maid and I both saw it."
Su Fu put her hands on her knees and sat upright. After hearing this, she said: "Since she is your maid, doesn't it mean that whatever you let them see is what you say, and it doesn't count as a witness." , there is no evidence, Fifth Sister’s nonsense and false accusations against me, I’m afraid it’s not good.”
Su Ran was stunned and had some doubts in her heart. She originally thought that Su Fu would get into trouble, but she didn't expect that she would respond so calmly, which made her feel a little bad.
But she would definitely be unwilling to marry a failed scholar.
Moreover, I heard that her family was poor and she could not live a good life of wealth. Marrying into a peasant family would lead to suffering, unless her brain was broken.
"Fourth sister, don't say it's a joke. How could I frame you? You are my sister. How could I frame you? I clearly saw it with my own eyes and heard it with my own ears. Is this still false?"
Su Fu glanced at her with a smile and said calmly: "It is said that the heart is separated from the belly, who knows what you are thinking."
Yang gave Su Ran a cold look, sneered coldly and said, "That's right. If someone talks nonsense and bullies my Afu, I will definitely not be able to spare her. Aran, you have to be careful what you say. Think about it carefully." I wonder if I have ever really heard these words.”
Seeing this, Mrs. Wang also spoke slowly: "There must be evidence for this matter. If there is no evidence, it is full of nonsense and false accusations. Although our Su family is not of high origin, we are all upright people after all. But I don’t want such descendants.”
Su Ran's face suddenly turned red. Sitting on the small round stool, she became more and more worried and scared.
In this house, she is struggling alone. Her grandmother is not her biological child, and her grandfather has many granddaughters. She is just one of the many granddaughters. Even her mother... her mother is her legitimate mother. I am afraid that in her heart I wish she had a bad life.
She didn't even have anyone she could rely on. In the whole clan, she was just a concubine's concubine. The two female elders above wished she was dead.
She bit her lip, feeling a little painful.
She originally looked down on these men who had three wives and four concubines, but now she thought about it, if she didn't get married, she would not be able to live happily in the Jinning Marquis Mansion for the rest of her life. She bit her lip and felt something in her heart. Calculation.
Marquis Jinning also calmed down, pondered for a moment and asked her: "Aran, how do you explain it?!"
Su Ran lowered her head, looking a little aggrieved: "I did hear this with my own ears. If grandpa doesn't believe it, just send someone to investigate."
Su Fu turned around and said to Marquis Jinning: "Grandpa, I'm afraid that Fifth Sister may have misunderstood. The prince did express his interest in me before, but I have already rejected him."
"Although the granddaughter is just a girl, she still understands the truth. Although the prince is the crown prince, he is already married. The concubine may sound nice, but in the end she is still a concubine. How can I, the legitimate daughter of the Marquis of Jinning House, do this to me? A concubine?!"
"Besides, Grandpa, you hold military power. If your granddaughter remarries into the East Palace, I'm afraid it will arouse His Majesty's suspicion..." When she said this, she smiled, raised her thin white neck, and looked a little arrogant. "No matter how stupid my granddaughter is, she will never do such things that endanger the family."
She spoke with great understanding.
In this round, Su Fu defeated Su Ran completely, and Su Ran felt extremely depressed.
