Chapter 283 The Bride Who Was Intentionally Replaced 10
Early the next morning, Yun Miao was still sleeping soundly. Gu Yichen tiptoed out of the door. Although he had not slept all night, he was still full of energy.
I shouldn't have disturbed grandma so early, but I was worried about disturbing her rest last night, so I had to come early in the morning and tell her about Yun Miao first, so as not to scare her when I come to pay my respects later.
"Young Master, why are you here so early? Wasn't yesterday your wedding day? Is there some trouble in the main courtyard again?" Fang Ruo, who had just come out to instruct the servants to deliver the toiletries to the room, saw Gu Yichen coming over at this time. She thought that Wu Meir was deliberately making trouble again, so she asked quickly.
"Madam Fang, no, it's me who needs to see grandma for something. Grandma is coming down now." Worried that Grandma would be anxious, Gu Yichen quickly changed the subject.
"The old lady has gotten up. Young master, please go to the front hall and wait." After saying that, Nanny Fang hurried in to help the old lady wash and dress.
After the old lady finished washing up, Nanny Fang told her that Gu Yichen came to see her.
The old lady was also worried that Gu Yichen was being plotted against by Wu Meir and the others again, so she quickly asked Fang Ruo to bring Gu Yichen over. She wanted to ask him in detail what had happened, so she came over so early in the morning after her wedding.
Gu Yichen came in front of the old lady and knelt down before saying anything.
His action frightened the old lady so much that she quickly asked what had happened.
Gu Yichen did not hide anything from his grandmother who had protected him since he was a child. He directly told her about Wu Meir, Gu Yiqiao and Xiao Zhener's plans one by one, and also told her about how he had taken advantage of the situation.
"Achen, how could you do this! Where do you put Miss Yun like this? You, ouch!" Hearing that her grandson clearly knew the plan of the main courtyard, but actually took advantage of the plan and deceived Yun Miao in the dark, the old lady was really furious.
She didn't expect that her grandson, who she had always thought was very calm and steady, would actually do such a thing. I don't know how wronged the child of the Yun family is! Thinking that yesterday was the wedding night, the old lady hurriedly asked Gu Yichen if he had bullied Yun Miao.
The old lady felt relieved after learning that he had rested on the couch last night.
"Grandma, I know I am sorry to Yun Miao for this matter, but if it happens again, I will still be willing to play along. I admire her, and I originally thought that I would never have a chance in this life, but unexpectedly, God still favored me. I don't want to give up the opportunity that has been placed in front of me. I just hope that you, grandma, will not have any complaints against Yun Miao. She did nothing wrong. She was willing to stay for the sake of her grandson and the reputation of the mansion. It was me who made all this happen. If you want to blame someone, just blame me." Gu Yichen put all the blame on himself for Yun Miao's willingness to stay, mainly because he was worried that others would look down on Yun Miao.
"Get up! I don't think your grandmother is that unreasonable. I knew that the girl from the Yun family was deceived, so why blame her? I feel sorry for her. Originally, I was going to ask for the girl from the Yun family to marry you, but who knew that Gu Yiqiao would get there first? Who knew that after all the twists and turns, you two would still be together.
Don't worry! I will take good care of Yun girl in the future, don't worry! In the future, she can come to accompany me more often, and she won't go to the main courtyard anymore. You can take her to pay respects during festivals. Well, I won't keep you any longer. It's almost time for tea. You should pack up and take Yun girl with you!"
It's rare to see Gu Yichen defending a girl like this, and he always speaks well of her. Madam Gu certainly won't be the bad guy, and she knows that Gu Yichen likes Yun Miao. Now that he has got what he wanted, Madam Gu is so happy! How could she possibly have any complaints against Yun Miao!
After getting his grandmother's approval, Gu Yichen left contentedly.
In the main courtyard on the other side, Wu Meir, who had already stood up, was helping Gu Yuan get dressed. After she helped him put on his coat, Wu Meir's maid suddenly walked in, whispered a few words in her ear, and then was sent away by Wu Meir.
Then Wu Meir pretended to look at Nan'an Marquis with an embarrassed expression, as if she didn't know how to start the conversation.
"What's wrong? What happened?" After cleaning up, Marquis Nan'an, who was sitting on the left and sipping tea from the cup just served by the servant, looked at his wife's expression and asked casually.
"My Lord, something bad has happened. A servant just came to report that the two brides were sent to the wrong rooms last night..."
"What did you say? How could Yichen and Yiqiao's courtyards be sent to the wrong one when they are so far away?" After hearing Wu Meir's words, Marquis Nan'an asked in shock. Why did he just hear his wife say that the eldest and second daughters-in-law were sent to the wrong courtyard?
"It's such an injustice. If I had known, I would not have let them get married together. How could this happen? My Lord, what do you think we should do about this? The wedding night has already passed. What if this gets out?" Wu Meir sat on a chair, pressing her eyes with a handkerchief, pretending to be anxious.
Nan'an Hou put down the teacup in his hand irritably and said impatiently: "What do you think we should do? What's the point of saying this now? Hurry up and find a way to deal with it. What's the point of crying here?"
The Marquis of Nan'an, who was now in an irritable state, showed a rare dissatisfaction with Wu Meir. She could make mistakes in such a small matter, so the affairs of the inner house should not be handed over to her.
Wu Meir, who had been observing Nan'an Marquis's expression, certainly did not miss the slight dissatisfaction on his face. Her expression froze, and then quickly restrained itself. Now was not the time to be angry. If the Marquis knew that they were the ones who planned this, then they would be in trouble.
The most important thing now is to resolve this matter, so as to prevent the Marquis from being dissatisfied with me and affecting Qiao'er's position as the Crown Prince. The Marquis had promised before that as long as Qiao'er got married, he would ask for him to be the Crown Prince, so I can't fail at this critical moment.
Thinking of this, Wu Meir then walked to the side of Nan'an Marquis, took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the tea splashed on the back of his hand, then looked at him tenderly and said:
"My Lord, now that things have come to this, there is no way to reverse it. We can only make the best of it. We might as well spread the news that the monks of Lingyin Temple have calculated for the newlyweds that Chen and Miss Yun are a match made in heaven, and Qiao and Miss Xiao are a match made in seven lifetimes. Anyway, everyone only knows that the two young masters in our mansion married the young ladies of the Yun and Xiao families yesterday, and no one knows the details. If we spread the news like this, I think everyone will discuss the destined fate of the two couples and stop talking about other people's affairs."
Wu Meir whispered to the Marquis about her solution. She had already thought of an excuse when she was planning the bride exchange.
