Yu Yanran shook her head sternly: "How could I hear such a big deal wrong? I have confirmed it over and over again. It is indeed Minglan."

Wang Ruofu was sour, why was it Minglan and not her Rulan? What a good marriage, what a precious gift, but it was given to Minglan. Suddenly Wang Ruofu felt that the white fox skin was not that good.

It's smooth.

"Well, I remember that after the old Marquis passed away, Gu Tingye had to observe mourning for three years, right? I'm afraid that proposing a marriage at this time will be criticized."

Yu Yanran whispered: "This is why my cousin asked me to send a gift. Let's not make it public. Let's settle the matter first and then talk about marriage in three years."

Wang Ruofu became even more bitter when he heard this. In other words, this was not a betrothal gift. Just to make Minglan wait for three years, Gu Tingye actually gave such a generous gift. Wouldn't the betrothal gift be of a higher standard?

Seeing that he was so rich and wealthy without his own daughter, Wang Ruofu wanted to bang his head against the wall right now.

"I can't make the decision in this matter, I have to give the old lady a nod." Wang Ruofu shied away.

Yu Yanran had no doubts: "Well, the old lady has always loved Minglan, so naturally I want the old lady to nod."

After the gifts were given and the conversation was over, Yu Yanran went to Mu Cang Zhai to play with Ming Lan.

As a result, after arriving at Mucanzhai, I found that all the servants here were very strange. There were maids holding poetry albums and reciting poems, and there were also maids who were acting sneaky. When they saw outsiders coming, no one greeted them, but ran back.

Room.

Finally, Xiao Tao discovered her and welcomed her into Minglan's boudoir.

Yu Yanran complained: "What's going on with the maids in your yard? No one can see the people doing the work, and no one cleans the fallen leaves and dust on the ground. Are they here to be maids or ladies?"

Minglan poured a bowl of tea for Yu Yanran unhurriedly, and sighed: "What can I do? These maids were all brought in by the eldest lady and Miss Lin, and I can't punish them easily, so this is the only way.

.”

"You are the one who tolerates everything and develops them to be lawless. If you ask me, just drag them out and give them a good beating. After a good beating, they will be honest." Yu Yanran said angrily.

Minglan covered her mouth and chuckled, and joked: "Sister Yanran is really acting like a marquis' wife now."

"Who am I doing this for? It's not like I'm not worth it for you. This maid doesn't look like a maid, and the young lady doesn't look like a young lady. If word spread, wouldn't it make people laugh at the Sheng family tradition?" Yu Yanran saw someone sneaking a peek outside.

, it looked like he was the person next to Mrs. Wang, so he shouted the second part of the sentence loudly.

Minglan naturally saw it too, but she didn't make a move. Instead, she asked Yu Yanran: "Why is sister Yanran so free to come to my place today?"

Yu Yanran explained the situation, and Minglan was also dumbfounded. She stayed for a while before confirming.

"Sister Yanran, did Gu Tingye really say that he wanted to marry me?"

Yu Yanran nodded solemnly: "Of course it is true. How could I be wrong about such a big thing? He said it himself today, and he also prepared a generous gift for me to send as a token of sincerity."

"Minglan, although Gu Tingye was ridiculous for a while when he was young, he learned it later. He also studied in your family, and you have seen him. He is not as domineering and rude as the outside world reports. What's more, my Marquis and Mr.

Gu Tingye is both a cousin and a close friend, and my Marquis knows his character best. Moreover, Gu Tingye is favored by the new monarch, and he will have the title of Ningyuan Marquis Mansion waiting for him in the future. He is indeed a rare and good husband.

"Yu Yanran tried her best to persuade.

It's not that Gu Tingye gave her any benefits, she really thought about Minglan. Seeing that Gu Tingye took the initiative to ask her for help for Minglan and prepared such a generous gift, you knew what he meant.

"Minglan, it's not easy for a woman to meet a good husband in her life. Take me for example. If I hadn't met the Marquis, I'm afraid my life would be so sad now." Yu Yanran pulled Minglan up.

hand, said softly.

Minglan was moved: "Sister Yanran, thank you, I know you are doing it for my own good."

At the same time, a servant knelt down in front of Wang Ruofu and told her what she had heard in Mu Cangzhai.

Wang Ruofu was furious when he heard this: "Why is this Minglan so weak-tempered that he can't even hold down a group of female maids?"

Mother Liu reminded from the side: "Madam, this matter is big or small. If word gets out that the maids of our Sheng Mansion are not like maids and the young ladies are not like young ladies, it will be difficult for the fifth young lady to find a good marriage."

Wang Ruofu was shocked: "You're right. Fortunately, this is Mrs. Yu. For the sake of Minglan's reputation, she won't tell anyone. It would be bad if others caught her. These cheap guys are waiting for Yu."

After my wife left, they were all disappointed!"

"promise."

Yu Yanran stayed with Minglan for a while and then left.

Mrs. Wang led her men to punish all the maids who were idle all day long, and also gave Minglan a scolding, mainly because she was jealous of her getting such a good match as Gu Tingye.

When Sheng Hong came back, he heard Wang Ruofu say that Gu Tingye was going to marry Minglan. He almost fell off the chair and splashed tea on his hand.

"Did you hear wrongly?"

Wang Ruofu said sourly: "How could I hear wrong about such a big event? And the piles of gifts, it can't be an illusion, right?"

Sheng Hong was happy: "Gu Tingye is quite discerning. This girl Minglan has always been well-behaved, and she will definitely be a good wife in the future."

Wang Ruofu rolled his eyes secretly: What kind of discernment does she have? Gu Tingye is blind, and she is not afraid of being laughed at if she marries such a noble daughter as her daughter instead of marrying a concubine.

There was a different scene over at Linqi Pavilion. When I heard that Ming Lan was going to become the future eldest lady of the Hou Mansion, she instantly turned into two lemon juices.
