755 Embarra.s.sing a man

Mother! Li Muyan was still secretly happy that his grandmother was so nice, but when he heard Mrs. Lis objection, he was instantly unhappy.

Mrs. Li glared at li Muyan and said,although marriage is decided by the parents and arranged by the matchmaker, its not a big deal. However, Ive already experienced the consequences of my parents words. I dont want other girls to experience the same, even if the person is my son. Before niannian herself agrees, I wont go to her house to ask for her hand in marriage.

Cai Xiaolian nodded. High Duke, old Madam, I wont hide it from you. Although most people in our village rely on their parents to talk about marriage, the daughters of our Gu family are all married to the people they like. If our daughter doesnt agree, her father and I wont talk about this outside.

Li Shan understood and sneered in her heart. Then, she opened her eyes innocently and said, Second aunt, aunt Lian, I really like sister Nian Nian! Brother likes it too, and I think sister Nian Nian is very good to brother!

Li Shan had not interacted much with Gu Nian in both her previous and current lives. Therefore, she did not notice anything different about Gu Nian.

In her opinion, the fact that Gu Nian had been able to become Xue Qianyus concubine in her previous life and had even bragged about the Xue familys backyard as a concubine meant that Gu Nian was a woman who was greedy for glory and knew how to win over men.

Li Muyans ident.i.ty had been exposed so early. Many things had changed because of her rebirth. It was better to matchmake the two of them and then use Gu Nians hand to harm li Muyan.

In Li Shans opinion, Gu Nians way of winning men over was probably through her looks and her tricks. She should have been fooled by her.

She also noticed the obvious frown on Duke Rongs face when he heard Cai s.h.i.+s words. He probably didnt like the Gu familys arrogance. If they couldnt get her together, he had a better plan. He wanted li Muyan to love Gu Nian so much that he could die. In the end, he wouldnt be able to be with Gu Nian and would be depressed from then on. Duke Rong and his wife would be disappointed in li Muyan. This plan was even better.

Li Shan suddenly felt that it wasnt fun to kill them. Wouldnt it be better to watch them suffer?

Therefore, from now on, she had to do two things. One, she had to matchmake li Muyan and Gu Nian. Second, he had to win over the hearts of Duke Rong, his wife, and Luo Yusheng.

Then, she would smoothly follow them to the capital next year.

She was unable to partic.i.p.ate in the consort selection at this age, but it would be fine when she turned thirteen the year after. Even if the third Prince married the main consort in these two years, as long as her status was sufficient and she could enter the third Princes estate, she was confident that she could make the main consort die early and occupy that position herself.

Not only did Li Shan see the impatient expression on Duke Rongs face, but Gu shouxin also saw it. He sneered in his heart. He was not satisfied with li Muyan from the start, and now an old man like you has come to interfere.

Seeing that Gu shouxin and Cai Xiaolian were silent and the atmosphere was a little awkward, Madam li quickly changed the topic. By the way, little Lian, second Gu, when are you returning to the village? Why dont I wait until after mu Yans birthday? Mu Yan had already written a letter to niannian, asking the sisters to come over for a meal in two days. You guys can go home together!

Gu shouxin looked at Cai Xiaolian, and Cai Xiaolian nodded. Yes, I can. Well stay for another two days. The childs third aunt probably wont be willing to let us go.

Duke Rong lowered his head and sipped his tea. He looked down on Gu shouxin. He felt that a man like him had to see a woman for such a small matter. It was really a disgrace to men.

If it wasnt for the fact that niannian was a good girl and his grandson liked her very much, even if Gu shouxin got the top scorer, he wouldnt even be interested in their family.
