Ye Xiu Lao Po
Changpinghou Mansion.
"Master Hou, we still haven't found the young master." Lin Bo, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, reported to his master helplessly.
Changping Marquis Shangguan Sui couldn't help but frown when he heard this, "That boy disappeared when he went to suppress the bandits. Isn't there any trace of him around?"
"Master Marquis, our people have dug three feet into the ground where the young master disappeared, but we still can't find any trace of the young master." Lin Bo said.
Shangguan Sui waved his hand, "Keep looking."
"In two months' time it will be his and the Zhang family's daughter's big wedding day. If he can't find it, how will the Zhang family explain it?"
The Changping Marquis Mansion has a marriage contract with the Zhang family, the Minister of Rites, and the wedding is scheduled for two months later. Who knew that Shangguan Ya, the young master of the Changping Marquis Mansion, has disappeared?
……
The residence of Lord Zhang, Minister of Rites.
"Second sister, I heard that Young Master Changping Hou has disappeared? The wedding in two months will not be postponed, right?"
Wushuang heard the words of schadenfreude as soon as she opened her eyes, and she looked at the person who spoke.
"Second sister, if there is anything wrong with the young master of the Changping Marquis Mansion, are you going to guard the family?"
"Second sister, you are really unlucky. You don't have some kind of physique, do you?"
The person who spoke was really happy to watch Wushuang's excitement, and when he talked about Wushuang, he was as disparaging as he could be.
As long as Wushuang is stepped down, more of the family's resources will be tilted towards her.
Wushuang took a careful look at the speaker and finally confirmed who she was.
Her cousin, Zhang Wusi.
The Zhang family is a very large family. Zhang Shucheng, the Minister of Rites, is Wushuang's grandfather. This old man is now in charge of the Zhang family.
The old man's first wife gave him three sons and two daughters, and his concubines gave him seven sons and six daughters. It can be said that the old man's heirs are still very prosperous.
By Wushuang's generation, there are more children.
After all, the Zhang family didn't have any rules against taking concubines. Wushuang's father and her uncles all had concubines, so the population was larger.
Wushuang alone has two legitimate brothers, one legitimate brother, five younger brothers and four younger sisters.
Wushuang: I really admire her grandfather. How did he raise so many descendants?Do you have money to support it?
Wushuang is the second daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, and the eldest daughter, Zhang Wuyou, is the legitimate daughter of her uncle and is now married.
Wushuang has also reached the age of marriage. She has already been engaged to Shangguan Ya, the young master of the Changping Marquis Mansion, and the wedding will be in two months.
But who knew that Shangguan Ya would disappear at this time?
"Second sister, it seems that you are not lucky enough to become the wife of Changping Marquis, nor can you dream of becoming the future wife of Changping Marquis." Zhang Wusi said to Wushuang with a smile.
Wushuang looked at her, "Are you cursing Master Shangguan?"
"Young Master Shangguan is just missing, not really dead. Are you saying that you hope he is really dead?" Wushuang stared at Zhang Wusi.
"I didn't say that." Zhang Wusi quickly defended himself, "Second sister, your luck has also affected Master Shangguan, right?"
"Second sister, I shouldn't have engaged you and Young Master Shangguan in the first place. If someone else had engaged Young Master Shangguan, maybe Young Master Shangguan would be fine," Zhang Wusi said.
"Zhang Wusi, are you saying something bad about me?" Wushuang said, "What good will it do to you if you promote me like this and throw dirty water on my reputation?"
"Don't forget, from me to you, as well as the other sisters, none of them have gotten married. If my reputation is damaged, what good marriages do you sisters want to find?"
Big families in ancient times paid great attention to reputation. If Wushuang's reputation was really bad, it would affect the marriages of other girls in the family.
"Zhang Wusi, are you trying to make life difficult for the entire Zhang family?" Wushuang stared at her.
"I do not have!"
"Okay, Wusi, don't talk nonsense." Mrs. Zhang, who was sitting on the table, saw that her two granddaughters were about to quarrel, and finally stopped them from talking.
Just like what Wushuang said, if her reputation is bad, it will really affect the marriages of girls in the entire family.
The Zhang family has many daughters, Wushuang is only the second in line, and there are many unmarried sisters below her.
If she really had a reputation as a Kefu, would others doubt the daughter of the Zhang family, Kefu?
"Wusi, you just stay in your room and don't go out these days. When will you learn to speak, when will you come out again." Mrs. Zhang looked at Zhang Wusi and said.
"Grandma!" Zhang Wusi looked at Mrs. Zhang in surprise.
How could she be restrained?
Grandma loves her the most, why do you do this to her?
The reason why Zhang Wusi didn't hold back what he said and still ridiculed Wushuang everywhere was because she was the most beloved granddaughter of Zhang Shangshu and Mrs. Zhang.
Zhang Wusi is the legitimate daughter of Mrs. Zhang's youngest son. She loves the house and crows. Zhang Wusi is the most favored daughter besides Zhang Wuyou, the eldest granddaughter of the Zhang family.
"Grandma..." Zhang Wusi said coquettishly, she didn't want to be grounded.
She also asked her little sisters to go out for a spring outing. How could she be grounded?
"Wusi." Mrs. Zhang looked at her granddaughter and said, "Just stay here and wait until you learn how to speak before going out."
If Zhang Wusi continues to go out and shout to others that Wushuang is Ke Fu's fate, Wushuang's reputation will be ruined and the Zhang family will be harmed.
Mrs. Zhang indeed loves her granddaughter Zhang Wusi, but she is not the only granddaughter.
And compared to her granddaughter, she cares more about her son and grandson.
She didn't want Zhang Wusi to harm her son and grandson at all.
Zhang Wusi pouted, knowing that he could not sway Mrs. Zhang's decision.
She turned back and glared at Wushuang fiercely.
Mrs. Zhang looked at Wushuang and said, "Wushuang, it's almost time for you to leave the court. During this period, just stay at home and prepare for your marriage."
My most beloved granddaughter has been grounded. Of course Wushuang, the granddaughter, must also be grounded and not go out.
Anyway, a girl to be married should stay at home and not go out, so Wushuang should stay at home as well.
Wushuang looked at the old lady and said, "Yes."
It was better for her not to provoke the second most powerful person in the family. Anyway, she could sneak out of the small Shangshu Mansion whenever she wanted, and there was no way she could be locked up.
Zhang Wusi saw that Wushuang was also "grounded" and gave her a provocative look.
Wushuang ignored this childish guy. She was thinking that there was no need to continue her marriage.
Yes, Shangguan Ya, the young master of the Changping Marquis Mansion, did disappear, but he was rescued by the heroine, and then the two became attached to each other and fell in love.
Her fiancée was of course destined to be cannon fodder.
After all, Shangguan Ya is the male protagonist, and the original work of this derivative world is called "The Princess of Nongmen".
Although, this "eldest son" is not the crown prince of a prince's palace, but the "eldest son" of a marquis palace.
"Master Hou, we still haven't found the young master." Lin Bo, the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, reported to his master helplessly.
Changping Marquis Shangguan Sui couldn't help but frown when he heard this, "That boy disappeared when he went to suppress the bandits. Isn't there any trace of him around?"
