Chapter 46: The Consequences of a Group of Young Ladies Gathering Together

  What is meant by being petty is what Er Yee said about that person? And who is this so-called Er Yee? Zuo Tingxuan?

  Liu Rong reacted and was about to ask a question, but this arrogant little kid had already walked away with his head held high. Liu Rong couldn't help but be speechless, shouldn't he have explained everything clearly before leaving? Where is the backyard? Not mentioning anything, did he really think this place was her home?

  He's all talk but no action, that's exactly what Left Courtyard is like. He doesn't even do things he promised to do properly. When it comes to the blueprint, can't you find someone reliable to take care of it? This kid who just mouths off and passes on messages, how can anything get done properly?

  But at this moment, Zuo Tingxuan also felt that he was innocent. In order not to bring Liu Rong out of the Wen Dinghou Mansion in the name of the government office, his price was also high enough!

  Zuo Tingxuan stared at the group of sisters, aunts and cousins surrounding him in the house: "You're really overthinking this. This time I'll take the initiative to invite people from the Wen Dinghou Mansion, it's not that I have any thoughts about the girls from the Wen Dinghou Mansion. You all know the current situation of the Wen Dinghou Mansion, with such a hollow and morally corrupt mansion, what kind of good girls can they raise?"

  "If it's really that bad, why are you still asking me to invite people from the Wen Ding Hou Fu?" The wife of the Wei Bei Hou looked at Zuo Ting Xuan with a calm expression, as if saying "you've already admitted it": "You usually don't ask your aunt for favors, but this time, for the sake of the Wen Ding Hou Fu, you even asked your aunt."

  "Come on, brother, just admit it." A bystander watching the handsome young man speaking in a relaxed tone.

  Zuo Tingxuan gave his younger cousin a cold glance. Zuo Tingyu, the second son of the Weibei Marquis Manor, was also one of the so-called Four Great Young Masters of the capital.

  Madam Wei Bei Hou continued, "You also know that your aunt is truly doing this for your own good. Only if you settle down and get married will your cousin Ting Yu not have to worry about getting married either. Your father entrusted you to me..."

  On the side, Zuo Tingyu, who was gloating over someone else's misfortune, saw the fire burning on himself and immediately sat up straight and shut his mouth.

  At this moment, the tightly closed door creaked open and the little boy who had just delivered the message to Liu Rong walked into the house. Seeing everyone surrounding Zuo Tingxuan, he couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Grandma, Auntie, Second Auntie, what are you all doing here? Why are you surrounding Second Uncle like this?"

  "Your mother and your paternal grandmother are worried about your second aunt who is somewhere you don't know, go out and play first." A slightly younger woman next to the Madame of Weibei Marquis, looking a bit lively, waved her hand at the little boy.

  The little boy's eyes lit up: "You don't know, I do." As he spoke, the little boy looked at everyone with a smug face.

  Zuo Tingyu stared blankly, Zuo Tingxuan helplessly covered his head.

  The little boy saw everyone looking at him and became more excited: "Just now, my second uncle asked me to help my second aunt's husband go to the Zhengyuan courtyard to meet a girl from the Wenhoudinghoufu family in the back garden."

  The Madame of Wei Bei Hou immediately looked at the little boy: "Which young lady from Wen Ding Hou Fu?"

  "The Third Miss of the Wen Ding Marquis Manor..."

  Liu Rong did not know that something was happening in a certain location of the Weibei Marquis Manor that would later give her a headache.

  Just waited outside the house for a while, occasionally looking towards the corridor, hoping that the little boy who had only done half of his business would remember that he hadn't finished what he was doing and come back to lead the way, or perhaps the adult in charge would discover this and order another maid or young servant to run an errand again.

  As a result, nothing! In the end, Liu Rong lost under the too low temperature outside the house and had to go back inside.

  As soon as she entered the house, Dong Er was seen with her ears perked up, listening intently to a group of young ladies from official families gossiping. Her smile grew bigger and bigger, and Liu Rong felt somewhat puzzled, so she also focused on listening.

  "Do you know why the Weibei Marquis's estate is making such a big fuss about washing the eldest grandson, and why they invited so many young ladies from various estates to come?"

  "It's obvious, isn't it? It's for the marriage of one of the four young masters, Zuo Tingyu. I heard that Young Master Zuo is quite the handsome and elegant talent. So this time, whether they were invited or not, everyone brought their own daughters from their respective households." As she spoke, the young lady's eyes couldn't help but glance at the people from the Wencheng Hou Mansion, her meaning crystal clear.

  Several people in the Wen Dinghou Fu couldn't help but frown, feeling uncomfortable on their faces, only because the person who spoke didn't mention names, yet it wasn't good to say much either.

  Liu Rong frowned as she listened and watched.

  "No, no, it's said that it wasn't for Zuo Tingyu, but rather for the nephew of the Weibei Marquis' manor. It's said that this nephew of the Weibei Marquis' manor is even more outstanding than Zuo Gongzi, a true and exceptional talent, an absolute beauty." A certain miss who was clearer on the inside story spoke up.

  "Oh?"

  "You don't know, the eldest son of the Weibei Marquis's family is now the Left Court Envoy of Yingtian Prefecture, Zuo Tingxuan. He was already a fifth-rank official at the age of twenty and has been unstoppable ever since."

  "I don't know who has the good fortune, even if it's not marrying the eldest son of the Duke of Wei Bei, being able to form a marital alliance is also a great thing!" The speaker's voice was filled with indescribable envy and a hint of sighing.

  "It won't be you anyway." Someone joked in the midst of it all.

  "What's the point of thinking about this? The marriage of the people in the Weibei Houfu must have been decided long ago, and these things are just rumors."

  "It's not a rumor, I heard it's not like that. This is the case for most of the Weibei Houfu who live close to the capital and have returned. It's all because they want to help this young master choose a good one, as he has delayed his marriage for quite some time."

  "Alright, forget it, none of you have a chance anyway. With the shameless illegitimate daughter of the Wen Ding Hou Fu wearing this attention-seeking outfit, who else would stand a chance?" Suddenly, a shrill voice rang out with intentional malice: "However, the few legitimate daughters of the Wen Ding Hou Fu are also foolish, unable to suppress an illegitimate daughter and letting her wear such an outfit to show off in public. If it were me, I wouldn't just punish the illegitimate daughter, but also the aunt who gave birth to this illegitimate daughter!"

  "Miss......" Dong Er looked at Liu Rong with concern, worried that she would get angry and do something.

  Liu Rong's eyebrows furrowed instantly, these rich girls, gossiping about themselves and suddenly dragging her into it, even saying such unrefined and uncultured words! And coming up with such vicious ideas! Did they think she was a soft persimmon?

  Liu Rong couldn't help but look at him, only to see that he had a common face and was sitting next to Liu Fu, who also looked up at her with disdain.

  This sentence is clearly directed at her.

  "Winter child, most dogs like to bark randomly. If you don't like it, just close your ears." Liu Rong raised an eyebrow and directly turned around to speak to Winter beside her.

  Just then, a person walked in at the door of the house. It was none other than Madame Weibei, who had been questioning Zuo Tingxuan all along. When the maid beside Madame Weibei wanted to step forward and stop her, she was blocked by Madame Weibei herself.
