Wanwan Offends Everyone She Can
She turned her head and warmly took Madam Su's hand, saying:
"Madam Su, I think our two families are quite destined to meet!"
I think Zhixia and my Zhiyu are a match made in heaven!
I'm willing to renegotiate this marriage and make Zhixia my legal wife!
She said with a generous expression:
"Our Estate of the Count of Yongning is by no means stingy! Eighty-eight sets of betrothal gifts, each set generous, including gold, pearls, jade, silk, and satin, with everything complete."
"I guarantee that Madam Su will be proud, and that Zhixia will marry into the family in a grand and glorious manner!"
In front of everyone, Madam Su refused outright:
"No need, we already have the 88 taels of betrothal gifts."
As for our future son-in-law, our family is very satisfied and has no plans for another marriage.
Countess of Yongning had no idea that Madam Su would refuse on the spot.
She said with a tone full of disdain:
"Your daughter, she's turning down a prestigious family like the Estate of the Count of Yongning's Mansion."
She insisted on marrying a country bumpkin who wasn't even a scholar.
Do you really believe he can amount to anything in the future?
"He's just a poor pedant who makes a living by studying. How can he compare to our Zhiyu?"
My Shen Zhiyu is the one who will inherit the title of Earl of Yongning in the future!
"A duke's heir, with a limitless future, noble status, and immense power, in what way is he inferior to that country bumpkin?"
Her words were full of threats:
You should really think this through. Don't ruin your daughter's life because of a moment of foolishness.
"If you agree to this marriage, from this day forward, the Su Family will be an honored guest of our Estate of the Count of Yongning's Mansion, Fugui and honor will be within your grasp!"
Madam Su smiled faintly and said:
"I just want my daughter to live an ordinary life; I never thought about Fugui."
Let's not talk about this anymore. My daughter is already engaged, Zhixia, let's go home!
Madam Lu was so angry that she vomited blood several times. Zhou Wanwan sighed and said:
"Madam Lu, you really need to take better care of your health. My porridge is good for replenishing qi and blood, so please remember to drink it!"
I must go back now. Goodbye, ladies and gentlemen!
Lu Lan spat and said, "Troublemaker! You cause trouble wherever you go, you're so annoying! Get lost!"
Shangguan Wan'er glared at her angrily and said, "Zhou Wanwan, you just wait, I will definitely not let you get away with this."
Zhou Wanwan smiled faintly and said:
"The rage of the incompetent, Miss Shangguan, I'm waiting for you!"
You've lost a lot lately. If you want to bet with me next time, remember to bring extra stuff!
Shangguan Wan'er's eyes reddened with anger.
Zhou Wanwan offended everyone she could before leaving.
Su Zhixia burst out laughing as soon as she stepped outside:
"Wanwan, how can you be so amazing? You don't even give Madam Lu any face."
I wouldn't dare.
Madam Su sighed and said:
"Wanwan, you've offended so many ladies and young women now, I'm afraid they'll target you."
These people might try to harm you in secret, so be careful! How about I send you some guards?
Zhou Wanwan quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, no need, I have guards. My guards are super strong, no one can bully me."
Madam Su patted Zhou Wanwan's head and said, "But those guards are no match for them at all. I'm afraid..."
Zhou Wanwan shook her head and said, "Don't be afraid. I just want to ask when my brother is coming to marry my sister-in-law?"
Madam Su was taken aback, then burst into laughter, "I'd like to keep our little one here for a few more years; you know she's still young."
Zhou Wanwan nodded and said:
"Our family naturally knew about it. My brother meant that he would try his best to get into Bianjing City)."
"When I pass the imperial examinations, I'll come and marry my sister-in-law."
Madam Su smiled and said, "What if you don't pass the exam?"
"Of course, I'll marry my sister-in-law, but my brother is very hardworking and also very capable."
Madam Su nodded and said, "My husband has also read your brother's writings and said he's quite capable."
Zhou Wanwan waved goodbye to Madam Su and returned home, where she saw Zhou Qingyan waiting for her at the door.
Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "Big brother, were you waiting for me here?"
Zhou Qingyan blushed and said, "I heard you went out with Zhixia, that's why I was worried about you."
Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said:
"Brother, you're not worried about me, you're worried about your wife."
Don't worry! My sister-in-law is perfectly safe. They've sent over a dozen trees to keep watch over her. I'm just worried something might happen."
Zhou Qingyan nodded and said, "It's good that you've made the arrangements."
These trees are very convenient now; several pieces of jade are tied to each tree, enough for them to use for ten days to half a month.
Zhou Wanwan's house is overflowing with jade; it's stored in several large warehouses.
She channeled all her energy into these jade stones, so that the trees could replenish their energy anytime, anywhere.
It's a bit like a battery.
Once these trees have replenished their energy, they can move freely.
Just as Zhou Wanwan was about to take a break, she saw several trees return. "Wanwan, something happened at our shop in the Jianghu Alliance."
Zhou Wanwan stood up and asked, "What's wrong?"
"I don't know where this bunch of lunatics came from. They smashed everything in our store, anything in our store." The trees looked rather helpless.
Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "Don't you know who they are?"
"I don't know, they must be a top expert on the Earth Ranking, anyway, we can't beat them."
So they came back to warn others.
Zhou Wanwan looked at them and said, "You did the right thing. There's no need to confront them. Uncle Scholar Tree and I will go over there now."
Old Uncle Scholar Tree was very fast, and the Old Ancestor was following closely behind.
Hey! These guys are definitely up to something!
"Let's go over there and see what kind of person on the Earth Ranking is so arrogant."
When Zhou Wanwan arrived at the restaurant, she saw that it had been smashed to pieces and Yun Duo was crying uncontrollably.
"Miss Wanwan, I'm sorry, it's my fault for not guarding this place properly. It must have been the owner across the street who smashed it."
Their boss is ranked 93rd on the Earth Ranking. Since our business has been booming, their business has been sluggish.
Zhou Wanwan frowned and said:
"Just because we don't have much business, you're going to cut off our business?"
The worst part is that they didn't just smash one of my stores; they smashed every store they could. How interesting!
Why aren't the Jianghu Alliance members doing anything about it?
"This isn't the Earth Ranking Courtyard Earth Ranking Courtyard. If it were, there wouldn't be so many troubles."
But this is the outer courtyard, where those Earth Ranking experts call the shots.
"So no one dares to offend them easily," Yun Duo explained, wiping away her tears.
Zhou Wanwan looked at the restaurant across the street and, sure enough, saw many people staring at their restaurant from outside.
Several of the men immediately made throat-slitting gestures. Zhou Wanwan curled her lip and said, "That's impressive. Let's ask who this number 93 on the Earth Ranking is."
Yun Duo lowered her voice and whispered:
"It's said in the martial arts world that this man is a living nemesis, terrifyingly powerful, and anyone who gets involved with him is doomed."
In his early years, he made his fortune by digging up graves and robbing tombs, targeting the tombs of kings, nobles, and generals. He was proficient in traps, hidden weapons, and feng shui secrets.
He dares to enter even the most ominous tombs and take even the most sinister funerary objects.
"By profiting from the dead, they amassed immense power, and neither the legitimate nor the criminal world dared to provoke them."
"Later, he retired from the criminal business and switched to legitimate business, but his methods remained just as ruthless and merciless."
The Jianghu Alliance members all say that those who offend him rarely live past the next day, and their remains are never even found.
