Reborn as the Blissful Wife in the countryside-Chapter 862: Fighting Over Love

Zhan San saw Little Sister Gu almost faint at his glance, feeling quite proud of himself. He then turned to Gu Rong... Haha, this girl was also looking up to his handsome appearance and noble family background.

Tsk tsk, the women in this world, especially those poor and lowly farm girls, always liked to dream about climbing up to noble young masters. But do they ever consider, would a true noble young master even look at them?

However, Zhan San didn’t mind sleeping with them. After all, if they’re offering themselves up, why not?

Therefore, Zhan San looked at Gu Rong tenderly and asked, "Is that young lady alright?"

Little Sister Gu hurriedly said, "Don’t worry, young master, I’m alright~"

After speaking, she didn’t forget to cast a shy glance at Zhan San.

Seeing this, Gu Rong stumbled, causing Little Sister Gu, whom she was supporting, almost to fall.

Little Sister Gu, furious, scolded Gu Rong, "You lowly girl, how do you support someone? You almost made me fall on purpose, trying to make me embarrass myself in public, is it?"

Little Sister Gu was a shrew, no match for Gu Rong.

Gu Rong hurriedly knelt down, tearfully saying, "Aunt, please forgive me, Sister Rong didn’t serve you well, please spare Sister Rong this time, don’t hit Sister Rong."

That one sentence not only showed her pitiful state but also implied that Little Sister Gu, being older, was her aunt and shouldn’t be flirting with young men anymore, and also mentioned how Little Sister Gu often hit her. It was a three-pronged attack, leaving everyone present speechless.

Zhan San internally laughed uncontrollably. Did Gu Rong think she was clever? In fact, such tricks were the lowest grade in noble families. If a maid from a noble family dared to behave like this, there would be only one outcome, she’d be dragged out and beaten to death!

There was a bang! Lord Lai couldn’t take it anymore and reprimanded Gu Rong, "What are you kneeling for? Who told you to kneel? Get up quickly and help your aunt back!"

Taking a liking to Zhan San was one thing for Little Sister Gu, but what right did Gu Rong have to fancy him as well? Fancying him was one thing, but daring to compete for his attention openly in front of so many elders, did she think he was dead?

Gu Rong was terrified enough to turn pale and hurriedly got up to support Little Sister Gu, trembling as she spoke, "Yes, Sister Rong will now assist Aunt inside."

Elder Gu looked at the frightened Gu Rong and felt sorry. What was Lord Lai doing? This was his granddaughter. How could Lord Lai scold her in front of him, her very own grandfather?

Elder Gu blamed Lord Lai, but Lord Lai secretly cursed Elder Gu. How had Sixth Son Gu been teaching Little Sister Gu and Gu Rong? With an outside man present, they bravely rush out without thinking to avoid suspicion?

Zhan San watched the eye contact battle between Lord Lai and Elder Gu with great satisfaction. His uncle always said that his second brother possessed the demeanor of a madman, but he, Zhan San, wasn’t bad either.

See, he only showed his face and had the two daughters of the Old Gu Family competing openly out of jealousy.

Old Master Zhan San didn’t want to deal with the grudges between the Lai Family and the Gu Family anymore; instead, he brought up the marriage contract, "Elder Gu, here are two marriage contracts. As long as you place your fingerprint on them, our two families’ marriage agreement will be settled."

Saying this, he placed the two marriage contracts along with a silver note worth a thousand taels on the table and pushed them toward Elder Gu.

Elder Gu, seeing a silver note of such denomination for the first time, examined it with curiosity, making Zhan San feel nauseated.

Humph, a bumpkin is a bumpkin, they haven’t even seen many thousand-tael silver notes. If it weren’t for his uncle saying that Gu Jinli’s maternal family wasn’t simple and could help him, and since Gu Jinli looked no worse than Gu Jinxiu, he wouldn’t agree to marry Gu Jinli.

However, what exactly was exceptional about Gu Jinli’s maternal family, his uncle didn’t tell him, nor allowed him to speak recklessly. He only said that Gu Jinli’s maternal family commanded great influence among noble families and wouldn’t let him suffer any loss.

He agreed, thinking that if his uncle deceived him, he would just divorce Gu Jinli. After all, he wouldn’t marry a girl without the backing of her wife’s family.

After carefully accepting the silver note, Elder Gu picked up the two marriage contracts and scrutinized them, soon asking, "Were these marriage contracts written incorrectly? Little Sister is called Yu Ye, Sister Ya is called Gu Ya, and Sister Rong is called Gu Rong. I can recognize their names somewhat, but the words here don’t quite look like their names."

Old Master Zhan San’s face immediately darkened and he looked toward Lord Lai: "Didn’t Lord Lai make it clear to Elder Gu?"

The letter he sent to Lord Lai clearly stated that they were seeking to marry Gu Dashan’s daughters, Gu Jinxiu and Gu Jinli, corresponding to Zhan Er and Zhan San respectively. How come it sounded like Elder Gu intended to match Yu Ye and Gu Rong with his two nephews? Does the Old Gu Family even qualify?

Lord Lai immediately looked toward Lai Zhuang.

Lai Zhuang quickly said, "Elder Gu, the two young masters of the Zhan Family wish to marry the two daughters of Gu Dashan, Gu Jinxiu and Gu Jinli."

"What? They want to marry those two? One is dull and the other is feisty, how could they be worthy of the two noble young masters?" Elder Gu was shocked. In his impression, only Little Sister, the youngest daughter, or Gu Rong, Gu Ya, could marry into a wealthy family as a young madam.

The two daughters of Gu Dashan, he barely had any impression of. He only knew that one liked to work in silence, getting beaten and scolded without a word, and the other liked to argue with the old lady, a feisty and rude lowly girl.

Little Sister Gu was even more shocked than Elder Gu. She initially thought the Zhan Family came to propose to her, only to find out it was for Gu Jinxiu and Gu Jinli.

The two girls she looked down upon the most were those two shabby girls. Seeing them steal her engagement, she couldn’t bear it and rushed out, exclaiming, "Old Master Zhan, your family must not seek to marry Gu Jinxiu and Gu Jinli. Those two girls are rustic and lowly, very unruly, and definitely unworthy of your family’s lineage..."

"Silence!" Lord Lai was about to go mad, never expecting Little Sister would rush out and say such things. He had carefully guided her for two years, yet she still behaved like this shrew?

Pan Shuangniang even said Little Sister had become a noble lady, noble lady my foot! Count on it, Pan Shuangniang, you wretched woman, once I’m done with Gu Dashan’s matter, see how I deal with you.

"Little Sister, go inside quickly, this isn’t your place to speak." If it weren’t for the taboo about gender differences, Lord Lai truly wanted to get up and personally drag Little Sister into the inner room.

Little Sister felt very wronged, unwilling to go inside, tears in her eyes as she looked at Zhan San, sobbing, "Young master~"

Zhan San laughed. Initially, I thought the girls of the Old Gu Family just didn’t understand etiquette, but they were like escorts, behaving no better than prostitutes in brothels, daring to act coquettishly to a man they just met, truly...

Zhan San thought he could save his brothel money for these few days. There were free ones available.

He gave Little Sister Gu a gentle smile, "Miss Gu, please go inside first. My uncle has more to discuss with your father... Rest assured, Miss Gu, my uncle wouldn’t let me suffer a loss." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Zhan San’s words were very clear, but Little Sister Gu didn’t understand.

She cried, saying, "Young master, I’m doing this for your own good, you must not marry those two lowly girls."
