Chapter 950: Chapter 948: Lu Ying’s Design

Su Qingzhi furrowed his brow, a hint of difficulty spilling into his eyes, “This is going to be problematic; originally, I had the intention to change the marriage arrangement for your brother.”

“Change the marriage arrangement?” Su Yingxue exclaimed in alarm, “Grandpa, why would you have such a thought? Could it be Lu Ying?”

The one entangling Su Hao now was none other than Lu Ying!

But if she married brother, then Wu Jinyan…

Su Qingzhi nodded, his aged voice carrying a trace of helplessness, “Originally, Grandpa had no intention to interfere in your brother’s marriage. The Miss from the Wu family that he chose, I have inquired about her, too. Although the Wu family is no more, that young girl is a tenacious and kind-hearted good Miss, and she still supports the Fufeng Center. She is compassionate towards the poor and weak and also runs a loft. She’s quite capable. However, your brother, he made a mistake, and he must not disappoint that young girl, Lu Ying.”

“Brother made a mistake? What happened to him?” A bad feeling suddenly seized Su Yingxue’s heart.

“Your brother, while defending Bamboo Leaf Pass, became acquainted with Lu Ying. Lu Chongming, who is the commander at Bamboo Leaf Pass, treated your brother with great courtesy, and your brother then had marital relations with that Lu Ying. He came clean about this to me on the way back.”

The Su family’s family discipline was strict, and if Su Hao had deliberately erred, Su Qingzhi would certainly have punished him severely!

But Su Hao claimed he was set up by someone, which led him to lose his senses. Considering Bamboo Leaf Pass is far at the border, an investigation would likely be difficult.

Therefore, Su Qingzhi didn’t think about punishing him but went personally to discuss the matter with Lu Chongming and his daughter.

After all, although Su Hao was trapped, he had also ruined Lu Ying’s chastity.

And there was Lu Ying, kneeling in front of him, expressing her deep affection for Su Hao and vowing her heart to him for this life, even willing to become a concubine if necessary just to marry him.

Lu Chongming also understood his daughter’s feelings and didn’t try to obstruct much.

In Su Qingzhi’s eyes, the father and daughter appeared quite tolerant and sincere.

If it were any other general’s family, Su Hao would likely already be ruined, and the Marquis’s Manor shamed.

However, Su Yingxue furrowed her brows tightly upon hearing this, “Grandpa, we haven’t thoroughly understood this Lu Ying. If brother is to marry her hastily, I’m afraid he wouldn’t be willing. As for Sister Jinyan… let’s wait for her to discuss it with brother. If they don’t want to part, then Grandpa, it might be best to refuse Lu Ying’s kind offer. There are many ways to make amends.”

Su Qingzhi had originally thought that if Wu Jinyan and Su Hao didn’t get along well, and if Su Hao agreed, he could marry Lu Ying.

But now, hearing what Su Yingxue said, he weighed his options and decided that Su Hao’s happiness was more important. If Lu Ying were to suffer and become Su Hao’s concubine, it wouldn’t hurt to treat her generously in the Marquis’s Manor later on.

Thus, Su Qingzhi no longer worried about Su Hao’s affair.

After all, both he and Su Yingxue, the brother and sister, were people of strong resolve.

Having returned to his study, he immersed himself in military books once more.

Su Yingxue lingered outside the garden; she needed to talk to Su Hao about the matter concerning Wu Jinyan.

Zhilan had returned with her and after gathering some information, reported to her, “Miss, Miss Han said that since the Lu family doesn’t have a residence in Jiang Du City, that’s why Miss Lu Ying is recuperating in our Marquis’s Manor. And her father, General Lu, has been staying in the military camp. This arrangement was approved by the Old General, and Miss Lu Ying has been pestering the Eldest Young Master every day. With the Eldest Young Master’s good nature and considering her injuries, he has not rejected her.”

After speaking, Zhilan looked puzzled, “Our family’s Eldest Young Master, although gentle, is certainly not a man easily entangled by a woman. Now, with this Lu Ying… the servants in the manor all think she’s going to become our young madam.”
