    Madam Wu had been involved in such a scandal in Upper Forest Court, but she still maintained a strong facade, chatting andughing in front of the officials and youngdies.


    Su Yingxue approached and listened in. Their conversation revolved around Su Hao and Wu Ruofei.


    Madam Wu and her close friend, Madam Lin, stood together, apanied by several otherdies with their daughters.


    To save Madam Wu’s face, Madam Lin held Wu Ruofei’s hand and remarked, “Ruofei has grown into a graceful youngdy. She will soon be a young woman ready for marriage!”


    “Madam Lin, you jest,” Wu Ruofei replied shyly. She had been ted for days, unable to sleep, ever since she seeded in marrying Su Hao by framing him. Now, upon hearing these words, her excitement only grew.


    The otherdies maintained polite appearances. One of them inquired, “1 wonder which young master Ruofei has married? Who could be the son-inw of the Minister?”


    “Our Minister’s Estate holds a high status, so the suitor must have both status and capability,” Madam Lin yfully teased.


    “All, Madam Lin, Madam Wu, please don’t keep us in suspense! I’ve heard that Ruofei and the young general from the Marquis of Martial South’s household are deeply in love. They’ve even…” Thedy’s eyes held a meaningful gleam as she smiled.


    “Madam, our Ruofei is not a frivolous girl. Marquis Su is from a family of generals, and the young general is straightforward. Our Minister’s Estate had no choice but to agree to this marriage. Thankfully, Marquis Su has promised not to mistreat our Ruofei. Otherwise, 1 would never allow my daughter to suffer,” Madam Wu proudly proimed, noticing Su Yingxue not far away.


    With her words, she shifted the me for Wu Ruofei’s framing onto Su Hao, making it appear as though it was his fault.


    “What a frustrating situation! Wu Ruofei, that delicate girl, is unworthy of the young general! 1 admire him!” Lin Sisi eximed, clearly upset.


    Su Hao, standing beside Su Yingxue, darkened upon hearing this.


    Su Yingxue squeezed his hand and offered a bright, reassuring smile. “Don’t worry, brother.”


    She held the handkerchief and walked into the crowd of Madam and Miss. She continued what Madam Wu had just said, “Since Minister Wu has agreed to this marriage, it brings joy to all of us! Our Marquis’s Manor and my elder brother are eagerly weing Miss Wu into our family!”


    Su Yingxue politely held Wu Ruofei’s hand. “Dear future sister-inw, we are now a family. Please don’t hold past events against me!”


    Wu Ruofei was taken aback and quickly withdrew her hand from Su Yingxue’s grasp. “Su Yingxue, are you out of your mind?! Why would you agree to my marriage to your brother?”


    Su Yingxue blinked innocently. “Both our families have already agreed to this marriage. Future sister-inw, why say such things? Moreover, marriage is determined by parents and matchmakers. How could 1 disagree? While our Marquis’s Manor consists of military personnel, we must still uphold proper etiquette! When you, sister-inw, join us in marriage, with me, Su Yingxue, by your side, I won’t let you suffer.”


    Wu Ruofei looked as if she had seen a ghost. Even theposed Madam Wu beside her was filled with doubt.


    What was Su Yingxue up to?


    Su Yingxue disyed grace and generosity, and she even asked Wu Ruofei deliberately, “My brother is over there.. Would you like to go and speak a few heartfelt words to him, future sister-inw? After all, you’ve admired him for so long, and your wish has finallye true!”
