For some reason, even though it was an exquisite and luxurious carriage, the people sitting inside must be either rich or noble. However, there was a sense of embarrassment in his eyes. Perhaps it was the mud on the wheels of the carriage. Upon closer inspection, the exceptionally gorgeous walls of the carriage were still sprinkled with specks of mud, which gave the carriage an appearance of being in a sorry state.

This was a small village called Li family's Hollow. Usually, because of the poor roads, very few people would come and go. If no one from outside came, then naturally no one would take the initiative to leave this small village. Only the occasional fugitive or emigrant would come here to settle down. Most of the villagers were pure and kind. Even if they met these people, they would not have any thoughts about the outsiders. They would only enthusiastically arrange things for them to live in. As long as it wasn't a bad person, it wouldn't be difficult to blend into the village.

It would only be more lively if there were more people in the village. Every time an outsider wanted to settle down, an older person in the village would say the same thing. Therefore, although the village was small, it had a large population. Even though there were no outsiders at the entrance of the village, there were still some old people and children gathered there, talking and laughing.

One day, such a carriage had arrived in a secluded village, and people were curious to find out if the person riding on it was a rich or powerful person. Even those elders who thought themselves knowledgeable couldn't help but feel curious. They stretched their necks and stared at the luxurious carriage with wide, dazed eyes.

The village was small to begin with, and this sudden novelty quickly caused the nearby men's wives, who had finished inserting the rice, to gather in a circle and point at the carriage as they discussed.

The village had already become lively because of this sudden visitor, but in reality, this visitor was still walking in the fields that were not too close to the entrance of the village.

It had rained a few days ago, and although the rain was not heavy, it had lasted for a long time, causing the roads in the fields to be muddy. The villagers had lived generation after generation in this heaven's gift, so they were used to this small inconvenience.

That's right, this was the carriage that had driven out of the House of the Marquis of Trung. The person inside was the official wife of the house of the Marquis of Trung, the wife of the Marquis of Trung, Yun Rong. On this trip, he had come to seek a marriage for the young miss of the loyal duke's residence, Yun Qiu.

The reason why Rong family came to such a remote village to choose Yun Qiu as their son-in-law was because they had their own considerations.

Firstly, he would let Yun Qiu marry far away, so as not to get in the way of others looking at him. Yun Qiu was different from Yun Dong, he looked just too similar to her mother.

She was originally the childhood sweetheart of her husband. Even though she was born into a rich and powerful family, her father was still a big official in the capital. In addition, the Yun Family and the Rong Family were related by blood. If one counted carefully, she and her husband were cousins. He had often played together since he was young. It would not be an exaggeration to call him a childhood sweetheart. The two of them could have become husband and wife, but they did not think that they would be engaged. The Yun Family elders coveted Wen Family's power and secretly made a marriage for Yun Zhong. Yun Zhongxin had no choice but to obey.

However, she was unwilling.

Why was it that ever since she was young, she had always been the one to steal from other people. No one had ever stolen from her before. Even after her lover had given birth to children, the powerful Rong family still did not give up. They stubbornly refused all the offers of marriage, and wholeheartedly wanted to marry Yun Zhong Xin, even if it meant being willing to be a concubine.

Her parents could not force her, and her daughter had waited year after year. Seeing that she was about to become an old lady who could not be married off, they were forced to agree to marry her to Yun Zhongxin as a concubine.

When she arrived at the house of the Marquis, she had relied on her beauty and her childhood sweetheart to easily obtain her husband's favor. She had also personally made the principal's wife whom she shouldn't have a husband's love be forsaken. However, the grievance from being abandoned all those years ago had not dissipated until … That woman died of many diseases because of her weak body. She finally fulfilled the dream of being a young girl and became the legitimate wife of her husband.

However, after only a few years of peace, the pair of children left behind by that woman had gradually grown up. Especially the daughter, she had a vivid expression and even her casual tone of voice was vivid. It made people feel indescribably annoyed.

She had always liked things watertight, and revenge was the same. It was better to be thorough.

Therefore, it was not enough to just let that woman's daughter stay far away from him. She wanted him to make sure that she would be poor even in a place where she couldn't see him, and never be able to rise again.

The Rong family's thoughts went back and forth a thousand times. Their hands were tightly clenched because of the life they had imagined for Yun Qiu's future. The brocade handkerchief in their hands had already been rubbed to the point where it became unrecognizable. Since he was not angry, this was enough to show the excitement of the owner of the brocade handkerchief.

Just as Rong was thinking of the benefits, the carriage suddenly shook. She was unable to balance her body as she tilted her head to the side and leaned against the wall of the carriage. There was only the sound of breathing, and when she stood up again, her delicate forehead had already turned red.

The Rong family still didn't know of their honor, but they were enraged by the carriage's action. She raised the curtain and scolded without even looking outside, "You dog slave! How do you drive a carriage? "

Seeing the lady lose her temper, the coachman knew that nothing bad would happen, so he hurriedly explained, "Please forgive my apologies, but the road conditions are too bad. A few days ago it was raining and this place is not an official road, I did not investigate it and so I ended up scaring you. My lady, if you don't remember this person, please forgive me this time."

Rongshi looked at the carriage driver who was trembling on the ground. With a slight glance, he turned his gaze towards the outside of the carriage.

What entered his eyes was a large piece of farmland. On July day, people were in a hurry to plant the late rice seedlings. At this moment, the farmland was covered by a shallow layer of water with neat seedlings. At first glance, it looked very clear and beautiful.

However, Rong didn't understand these things. For her, the only beautiful things were the silks and silks, and the emerald-colored glaze.

She carelessly looked at the plains, and when she lowered her head to look at the road below her, she finally understood the mistake of that skilled coachman from before.

Was this really a road?

Rather than calling it a muddy road, it was more like a swamp, shallows, mud, and water. Mixed in with it were messy footprints. They were extremely clear as they sunk deep into the mud. Their carriage, however, was stuck in the mud on the road. She had never intended to stay outside for long. If the road conditions were the same along the way, then she would have wasted most of her time on the road. She didn't want to waste time on that woman's daughter. It was not worth it.

However, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to get to the village that he had investigated about earlier. It was a pity that this was originally a family of poor peasants of the third generation. Their family had many sons, and they were so poor that they couldn't even manage their food and drinks everyday. If someone didn't want the betrothal gift, they would be extremely grateful to gift him a daughter-in-law.
