Chapter 10 — The day my mother wanted to reconcile, I tore up her letter of reconciliation

In fact, they were all trying to figure out how to sell her for a higher price. After hearing the news, Bui Van Chi was so angry that his face turned pale: "They really consider me a commodity!"

"Correct." I said, "so this time, let them sign it themselves."

She looked at me, for the first time in her eyes there was no longer the awkwardness and thorniness of the day before, only quiet confidence remained.

“You say, I do.”

Over the next few days, Bui Palace was still mourning on the outside, but on the inside it was extremely busy. Marriage letters, concubines, lists of bride price offerings, the bride passing on the word, the matchmaker standing in the middle guiding the match... Each person thought they were hiding the plot from the others. Without knowing it, from the moment the first message was released, the path was already chosen by me. I first let Bui Van Chi in front of the second lady pretend to half push and half receive. There was no immediate response, no harsh resistance, just occasionally blushing and asking a few questions: "Is that house really better than Thua An Marquis's palace?" “If you really have such a blessing, will your lady compete for me?” She was already beautiful, and normally had a bit of elegance, but now that she pretended to be like that, she was indeed a bit more moved by a young girl who didn't dare to admit it. The second lady looked at it and was truly reassured. Rest assured she's stupid, rest assured she's still dreaming. On the other hand, I intentionally let Lieu Nhu Nuong's people "accidentally" know that what the new marriage really values is the girl's background and bride price process. As long as the marriage letter, concubine, and the person appearing at the meeting match, other small details will not be examined too closely. As soon as these words came out, Lieu Nhu Nuong immediately had the idea of changing people. She wants to push the person next to her to replace her. As for Bui Van Chi - naturally he still walked the tattered path of Thua An Marquis's palace. She even thinks she is extremely smart. But what she didn't know was that marriage documents could be swapped or altered, business cards could also be swapped or faked, and even the person presented during the ceremony could be swapped. On the actual day of action, the rain was not heavy. The second lady sent someone to call Bui Van Chi early in the morning, saying she wanted her to change her clothes, look at her jewelry, and figure out what to wear at the bride price. Before leaving, Bui Van Chi was still a little uneasy: "What if they suddenly change their mind?"

“Cannot be changed.” I adjusted her collar for her: "Just remember, no matter what they say, you will obey, don't show the slightest bit of unusualness."

She nodded, lowered her voice and asked again: "What about you?"

“Let's go see the other side.”

On the other side, of course, is Lieu Nhu Nuong. Although she was banned from the Heavenly Yard, the ban was the light path, not the underground path. As long as the old lady gives her tacit permission, someone will naturally reach out on her behalf. I let Ngan Binh watch for a few days, and finally waited for her to bring out the person next to her. She is a distant cousin with a delicate appearance, her name is Lieu Ngoc Nhi. The person is not considered intelligent, but is more obedient and young, the most suitable to impersonate as a substitute. Lieu Nhu Nuong's plan is very clear: waiting for Lieu Ngoc Nhi to replace that "good marriage", she will gradually turn her life around based on this level of relationship; As for Bui Van Chi, she went to Thua An Hau's palace to celebrate, life or death had no effect on her. Unfortunately, no matter how loud the tajing beads are, the stage is built by me. Ceremony day That day, the second room and Lieu Nhu Nuong were both working hard on both sides. One side is busy pushing Bui Van Chi to the side of Thua An Hau's palace, the other side is busy pushing Lieu Ngoc Nhi to the "good marriage" side. People were bustling in and out, carriages were moving around, invitations were passing back and forth, even the ways of addressing the ladies were in disarray. But at the most chaotic moment, my people took the marriage certificate that was supposed to be sent to the "good marriage" side, and quietly changed it to the Thua An Marquis palace; He then brought the concubine, which had been left to Thua An Marquis's palace to compare, to Lieu Ngoc Nhi.

There is only half a minute difference in the middle. But half a moment is enough. Wait until the two sides have actually finished comparing, and all the processes are more than halfway through. As soon as Thua An Marquis's side looked, the person who came matched with the concubine, the ceremony was accepted, the name was also recorded, only to think that this was the "suitable candidate" that the Lieu family tried their best to bring in. As for the "good marriage" side, it was originally just smoke released by me, with no intention of actually getting married. Waiting for Lieu Nhu Nuong to react, it was too late. The person whose name she was originally planning to take to enjoy the blessing fell on the bride price list of the Marquis of Thua An's palace. I want to remove it, but I can't remove it. If you want to retreat, you can't retreat. When the heavenly courtyard made the sound of broken porcelain, I was standing by the window slowly drinking tea. Bui Van Chi sat across from me, his palms full of sweat, and asked: "Is it done?" I put down the tea cup, smiled and said: "It's done."
