The main reason why Gu Jiusi fell from the rockery was because Wang Yue moved too fast. Starting from Ye Yun'er's exclamation, he was almost in front of them in the blink of an eye.
Gu Jiusi quickly used Qing Gong to jump onto the rockery. In his haste, he didn't pay attention to his steps, and he slipped and fell.
It was such an unlucky thing. Ye Yun'er just screamed in surprise just because she wanted to call someone over. She happened to be able to see her entangled with Wang Yue, so that she could let her parents make the decision for her and let Wang Yue treat him. Responsible, she feels that sister Yuru is so good, and there will be no conflicts between the two of them together.
The most important thing is that Wang Yue lives in her house, and she always meets Wang Yue from time to time. Wang Yue's special temperament is very different from that of this era. He is pleasant to even a servant, which makes her She fell in love unconsciously.
Now that Wang Yue was engaged, she had been struggling for a long time and felt that she had to burn the boat.
She was indeed halfway successful. After hearing his exclamations, the servants who had been driven far away and the guests who came to attend the banquet also rushed here. Only halfway there, they met Gu Jiusi. and Liu Siyu.
As a result, Ye Yun'er successfully tricked Gu Jiusi and her best friend Liu Siyu, and everyone saw the two of them hugging each other in embarrassment.
Everyone did not expect to encounter such a thing in the Ye family with strict rules, so they all speculated about what was going on and talked about it for a while.
Of course Liu Siyu knew that she had fallen into someone else's scheme, but she was also decisive. Since she was bumped into being with this person, she could only accept her fate.
So, she glanced at Gu Jiusi, who was still apologizing, and said coldly, "Now that things have come to this, please ask Mr. Gu to come to the Liu family to propose marriage as soon as possible. Siyu will definitely understand his parents after he returns. "
After Gu Jiusi heard this, he still didn't understand the identity of this girl. He was a little stunned, but he quickly reacted and wanted to explain.
But Liu Siyu knew very well that what happened to the Ye family today would soon spread to Yangzhou City. She wanted to get rid of this embarrassing situation as soon as possible and find her parents as soon as possible to explain the matter.
Gu Jiusi looked at Liu Shiyu's retreating back and stretched out her hands, not knowing what to say.
Chen Xun and Yang Wenchang hurried over after Liu Siyu left.
Chen Xun even winked at Gu Jiusi and said, "Congratulations, brother Gu. We finally lived up to your aunt's trust and helped you find your sister-in-law!"
Yang Wenchang also followed up and said, "Yes, brother, that's good too. , you don’t need to take that inexplicable fake death drug."
Gu Jiusi didn’t know what to say at the moment. He was not opposed to marriage at the time, he just didn’t like the kind of ladies who only knew red tape.
Now seeing that Liu Siyu acted neatly and decisively, he was not so disgusted.
The situation is now like this, and he has no way to change it. After all, although his family is relatively noble, they cannot be irresponsible in this situation. What's more, Liu Siyu's father Liu Tongpan is also a very powerful person in Yangzhou. , is not something he can offend easily.
He couldn't explain how he felt, so he left Ye's house in a daze and boarded the carriage back to his home.
...
In fact, the news spread faster than Liu Siyu thought. After all, women spread gossip really quickly.
When she saw her mother, she whispered some information. Her mother immediately said goodbye to the old lady of the Ye family and sent someone to call her father out.
Even before their family returned home, in such a short period of time, the story of her and Gu Jiusi's disheveled clothes had already spread throughout the city.
Liu Siyu's father and mother had sinking faces. Listening to the messages outside, they knew that their daughter had to get married.
They did not object to this marriage. After all, the Gu family's background was too deep. Jiang Shangshu and Liang Wang were both their supporters, controlling the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Personnel respectively.
They were just worried that the Gu family would not come to propose marriage, so their daughter's innocence would not be revealed, and the Liu family would become a joke.
In fact, they were overthinking it. The news about Gu Jiusi had just reached the Gu family, which made Gu Jiusi's parents extremely happy.
Jiang immediately asked his servants to prepare the betrothal gift and called Gu Langhua home from outside. The two of them went to Liu's house with the generous gift without waiting for Gu Jiusi.
The two families moved very quickly. It only took a few days from the appointment to the wedding date. The hurry made the rumors even more serious.
According to everyone's speculation, these two people may have had a relationship a long time ago, otherwise they wouldn't have gotten married in such a hurry, and the child might be born soon.
This kind of rumor was so rampant that Yangzhou City was full of uproar, but the strange thing was that no one from the Liu family or the Gu family came to suppress this matter, and they just allowed this kind of rumor to spread quickly.
Wang Yue originally thought that this matter would end with Liu Siyu and Gu Jiusi getting married, but he never thought that he would still have something to do with him.
Not long after Mrs. Ye's birthday party ended, he packed up his luggage and moved to the yard he bought. The wedding process between him and Liu Yuru was proceeding quickly. According to estimates, the wedding would be completed within a month at most. .
On this day, Wang Yue, who had finally developed some Qi sense, was continuing his hard training at home. Suddenly Wang San came to knock on the door, "Sir!" Wang Yue
did not let anyone in immediately. He waited until the exercise was completed. Then he asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"
Wang San saw that Wang Yue finally responded and breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly explained, "Sir, Yin Hong, who is with Miss Liu, has come to the house, waiting for you to do well." It's been a while."
Wang Yue frowned, what is Yin Hong doing here at this time? He thought something had happened to Liu Yuru, so he quickly opened the door and asked Wang San to call Yin Hong over.
After Yin Hong arrived, he hurriedly saluted Wang Yue, and then said in a panic, "Uncle, something big happened in my family. The master was caught by the Jiedushi for tax evasion. If he can't pay a hundred times the fine, , they will confiscate their homes and exterminate their clans."
Wang Yue raised his eyebrows. Did Wang Shanquan get into Qian'er's eyes? He didn’t even give Qingzhou face.
He was just about to take people to the Governor's Mansion when suddenly something moved in his heart. He looked at Yin Hong and said with a smile, "Yin Hong, I didn't discuss it with your young lady. Now is a good opportunity for the Liu family to move to Qingzhou. ."
Yin Hong was a little confused. She didn't know what good opportunity Wang Yue was talking about, so she quickly asked, "Master Wang, please speak directly. I'm afraid Yin Hong won't understand and can't explain it to the lady." Wang Yue smiled
. Laughing, he explained patiently, "Originally, I was still worried about how to get the Liu family to move. After all, your master's real estate shops are here. Even if he is willing to move now, he might be blown away by Aunt Zhang. The pillow trend soon changed its mind, but what if all the property here is gone?"
Yin Hong was stunned for a moment, and then said with some astonishment, "But my young lady is fine, isn't my eldest lady? Do you want to drink northwest wind with grandpa?"
Wang Yue saw that Yin Hong still didn't understand, so he quickly reminded him, "Think about it carefully, if the farm shop has lost all its money and needs to rely on money from your girl, then your family will Has the status of the eldest lady in the Liu family become very high?"
Yin Hong's eyes lit up after hearing Wang Yue's words. She clapped her hands quickly and said, "My uncle is right. In this way, no one will be around anymore. You dare to bully our eldest lady."
She thought happily for a while, but suddenly she felt something was wrong, so she quickly said, "But what if Aunt Zhang uses the betrothal gift sent by her uncle to pay off the debt?"
Wang Yue certainly thought of this. , he said to Wang San who was standing there watching his nose and heart, "Wang San, you will take a team of guards to the Liu family to protect the dowry, take the token and reveal your identity directly, and see who dares to steal the money. ."
Wang San nodded excitedly after listening to Wang Yue's instructions, and then said with assurance, "Master, please don't worry, no one can take the money away as long as I am here." Yin Hong heard that Wang Yue had arranged it
. The escort went to Liu's house, which made him very happy. She felt that the aunt would never dare to go to the young lady's room to say harsh words again.
Wang Yue originally thought that this arrangement would be foolproof, but less than two days later, when Wang Rong, the eldest son of the governor's family, came to ask for money, Aunt Zhang actually brought his three children and all his money to the property store. The title deed ran away.
Wang Rong was furious when he didn't receive the money. He immediately sent people to search Liu's house, but nothing valuable was found.
He originally didn't want to completely offend Wang Yue, but he didn't want to miss the point, so he used the excuse that the Liu family hid money in the betrothal gift and wanted to forcefully check the betrothal gift.
But he was stopped by Wang San and his men. He didn't have enough manpower, so he could only clamor to see Wang Yue and wanted to ask Wang Yue if he was ready to protect the Liu family?
After Wang Yue got the news, he and Wang Ping rushed to Liu's house. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Wang Rong sitting carelessly in the pavilion.
When Wang Rong saw Wang Yue coming over, he said with a smile, "Brother, your people are so powerful, they actually blocked my search. Is it possible that you are lawless?"
Wang Yue was too lazy to pay attention to this guy, so he just said He said casually, "It seems that you are really going to have trouble with us in Qingzhou. In this case, I paid the fine on behalf of the Liu family. I just hope you don't get choked." After he finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked the first person to take the fine
. A stack of silver notes came and was placed on the table. The amount was exactly one hundred times the fine the Liu family owed.
Wang Rong saw that Wang Yue was so easy to talk to. He didn't know why, but he felt very confused, which made his original plan fail.
In fact, he originally followed his father's order and wanted to use this opportunity to make friends with Qingzhou. However, he knew that Wang Yue and Gu Jiusi seemed to be familiar with each other, so he was ready to give Wang Yue a slap in the face, and then make Qingzhou owe him a favor.
But what he didn't expect was that after Wang Yue met him, he handed over the money neatly. Not only did he fail to achieve his goal, but he also had a vague intention of enmity.
It was too late for him to say anything now. He could only pick up the banknotes on the table and leave quickly.
After Wang Yue waited for him to find her, he entered the courtyard and met Mrs. Liu. At this moment, the remaining servants of the Liu family were frightened, and even Liu Yuru looked at Wang Yue with some worry.
Logically speaking, Wang Yue and Liu Yuru could not see each other again before getting married. Today was a special situation and no one said anything.
Wang Yue first saluted the eldest lady, and then said jokingly, "It's okay now. The annoying concubine has run away. The eldest lady can go to Qingzhou with us to enjoy the blessings in the future." Madam Liu saw Wang Yue's funny words
. , she was relieved in her heart. She looked at Wang Yue and asked worriedly, "I heard from the family that Xiao Yue handed over the money for the Liu family?"
Wang Yue nodded and said nonchalantly, "Yes. Ah, I've already paid it. Let's settle the marriage first. I will ask for justice later."
Mrs. Liu nodded, and then said worriedly, "It's just that Aunt Zhang might have given the land to her a long time ago. After selling it, after she leaves, someone may come to collect the house soon. What will the whole family do?"
Wang Yue smiled nonchalantly and said domineeringly, "In just two days, With my guards watching, who can refuse to give me a few days of grace?"
Madam Liu understood what Wang Yue meant, that is, after getting married, she would no longer need anything here. Although she was very satisfied, she was still a little worried. He asked, "It's just that if this happens, Ru'er's face will fall into the dust."
Wang Yue looked at Yu Ru and said firmly, "The face of women in this world is given by men. I will protect you." Come on, who dares to look down on Ru'er?"
After hearing what Wang Yue said so straightforwardly, in front of her mother, Liu Yuru's face immediately turned red and she threw herself into her mother's arms. He never showed his head again.
Wang Yue didn't stay any longer. He wanted to suppress the storm, so he quickly left and came to the front yard of Liu's house.
As soon as he sat down, Wang San came to report that Butler Ye was here and asked if he had seen Wang Yue.
Wang Yue refused directly and asked Wang San to send away Butler Ye. He felt that now was the time for him to compete with Wang Shanquan, so it was better not to bring the Ye family in. After all, he was leaving soon, and the Ye family could It's troublesome.
Probably because they were afraid of offending Wang Yue, it didn't take long for Mr. Liu to be released. Although he was a little embarrassed, it seemed that he had not suffered much.
In this case, Wang Yue is relieved again, as long as his wedding is not delayed.
After Grandpa Liu came back, he saw Wang Yue sitting in the main seat carelessly, and he said a little embarrassedly, "It's embarrassing to say that I have to go to rescue first, which makes me feel ashamed!" Wang Yue waved his hand, he
thought After beating around the bush with these old people, he went straight to the point and said, "Your aunt donated the family's money and ran away. Someone will probably take over the Liu family's house soon. Why don't you, father-in-law, follow me to Qingzhou? I'll protect you in Qingzhou." Wealth for a lifetime."
Grandpa Liu also heard in prison that his concubine ran away with the money, which made him very angry, but where he was at the time, there was nothing he could do.
Now seeing Wang Yue, he asked unwillingly, "Can't we catch that bitch?"
Wang Yue shrugged and said very apologetically, "Your Aunt Zhang is also capable. I sold the shop secretly before I left, and I don’t know where I went. My guards are not familiar with Yangzhou and have never found him." After hearing what Wang Yue said, Mr. Liu never wanted to spend
more time in Yangzhou. After all, it was unheard of for a concubine to run away with money, and he would soon become the laughing stock of the entire Yangzhou.
So, he said anxiously, "In this case, I'll trouble my virtuous son-in-law. There's nothing to deal with at home now. Let's go back to Qingzhou now." Wang Yue saw that Mr. Liu agreed, so he arranged for people to guard the
Liu family. , he took people back to prepare without stopping.
It happened that the ferry was now open for sailing. That night, without waiting for Wang Shanquan to come to apologize, he took his bride and the Liu family and left Weizhou by boat.
Not long after he left, a group of people knocked on the door of Wang Yue's courtyard outside the city in the middle of the night. Wang An, who was guarding the courtyard, went to the door to meet Wang Shanquan and told Wang Yue that he had left.
