A car accident, our family of three crossed

Chapter 772 What happened to the incense ring?

The master and servant looked miserable as they were driven out like lost dogs. However, no one present felt any sympathy for them. It was all their own fault.

The ones who should be sympathized with are the Marquis Boyuan's family. It was a great day and they were going to welcome the bride happily, but in the end, someone played a trick on them and replaced the bride with a fake one.

Fortunately, the plan of the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion did not succeed, otherwise, it would have humiliated the Boyuan Marquis Mansion and ruined an innocent girl.

Bah! How vicious!

A big part of the reason why the Marquis Boyuan's Mansion had been refusing to cancel the engagement was because the Crown Prince had been disabled unexpectedly, and they were afraid that if the engagement was canceled, it would be difficult to get another one in the future.

But now it seems that it would have been better to cancel the marriage right away. If the girl was really married, she might turn out to be a troublemaker who would cause unrest in the family.

Thanks to the carefully planned drama by the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion, the Boyuan Marquis Mansion was able to stop the losses in time.

After expelling Zhou Rong and her servant, Marquis Boyuan bowed to the crowd who were watching the fun.

"Everyone, today was supposed to be a happy day, but I didn't expect that the Cheng'en Marquis's Mansion would cause such a scene, making you all laugh at it."

"Since the wedding banquet is not taking place, we will just treat it as an ordinary banquet. If you all don't mind, you can stay for a simple meal before leaving. As for the gifts from various mansions, the Marquis Boyuan Mansion will return them one by one."

What Bo Yuanhou said fully demonstrates his vision and is admirable.

In the end, quite a few people stayed to have the banquet before leaving.

When Zhou Ting brought Zhou Ru back home, Zhou Huan had already arrived home. Seeing that his daughter was brought back safely, his stern face relaxed a lot.

After sending Zhou Ru back to her room and settling her down, Zhou Ting sighed as he looked at her who was still sleeping soundly.

"You slept comfortably, girl."

After coming out of Zhou Ru's room, Zhou Ting finally had time to care about Xiang Huan's condition. He learned that her eardrum was damaged, resulting in temporary deafness.

After hearing the news, Zhou Ting felt a little heavy-hearted, but fortunately, the sword that stabbed her did not hit her vitals, so her life would not be in danger. She would be able to recover after resting for a while.

"Ugh……"

Zhou Ting sighed again. When Zhou Ru woke up, she would know that so many things had happened without his knowledge. Especially after she saw Xianghuan's current condition, he was afraid that the girl would be sad.

When I came out of Zhou Ru's yard, I saw a man kneeling outside the gate. It was Zhou Tong.

As soon as Zhou Ting saw him, he was furious.

"You still have the nerve to kneel here? Go and accept your punishment, then come back and continue kneeling."

"Yes, son."

Zhou Tong is the person who always accompanies Zhou Ru when she goes out. Yesterday, he stayed with Zhou Ru at the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion.

But Zhou Ru had been going in and out of Zhou Rong's yard from yesterday to this morning, and all the girls were there. Zhou Ru felt that it was inconvenient for a man to follow her around all the time, so considering that he had been on guard all night without a rest, she sent him back home to take a nap.

But who would have thought that it was because of this that the Cheng'en Marquisate had the opportunity to take advantage of it.

When Zhou Tong learned that he was not with the young lady, so many things had happened. The young lady almost married into the Marquis Boyuan's Mansion. If Xianghuan had not discovered it in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable, and Xianghuan almost lost her life.

Thinking of this, Zhou Tong blamed himself very much. When he went to receive the punishment, he was hit by the board but he didn't say a word.

Zhou Ru slept until nightfall and woke up. She stared at the bed curtains above her head with her eyes open. It was her familiar room.

Just as she was wondering when she had returned home, a maid came in from outside, lifted the curtain, and was surprised to see that she had woken up.

"Miss, you are finally awake."

"Why, look at what you said, have I slept for a long time?" Zhou Ru sat up, feeling as if something was missing. She looked around before realizing, "Where's the incense ring?"

Normally, Xianghuan was the one serving her in her room. When she suddenly woke up and found a different person, she felt a little uncomfortable.

The maid named Xiangcao looked a little uneasy when she heard this, and quickly changed the subject: "Miss, you've slept all day, you must be hungry. Why don't you eat first? The food is always warm in the kitchen!"

Zhou Ru didn't notice the maid's strange behavior and nodded. She did feel a little hungry.

"Miss, please take a rest first. I will go to the kitchen to bring the meal." After saying this, Xiangcao hurried away.

Zhou Ru got up and put on her coat. Seeing that the lights in the house were already on, she didn't know what time it was, so she decided to go out and take a look.

Unexpectedly, when she pushed the door open, she saw a person kneeling outside the door, kneeling motionlessly, which scared her.

"Oh! Who's there?"

The person who had been kneeling with his head bowed raised his head slowly upon hearing this and called out somewhat dejectedly, "Miss, you're awake."

Zhou Ru then recognized Zhou Tong and quickly stepped forward to check: "Zhou Tong, what's wrong with you? Why are you kneeling here?"

Zhou Tong sighed. It turned out that the young lady had just woken up and didn't know so many things had happened during her long sleep.

"I made a mistake and am kneeling as punishment."

"Wrong? Kneeling as punishment?" Zhou Ru was confused. "What did you do wrong? Why should I kneel? It's freezing cold out here. Who told you to kneel?"

After saying that, Zhou Ru also reacted. There were only three masters in this mansion, besides herself, so it could only be her father or elder brother who punished her.

Zhou Ru couldn't help but mutter inwardly, "How could Zhou Tong, such an honest man, have committed such a serious crime? Would her father and elder brother really punish him by making him kneel outside in such a cold weather? How inhumane!"

She thought she would go back and talk to them, and then she went to pull Zhou Tong.

"No matter who punished you, you've already kneeled. Now stand up for me."

However, Zhou Tong was stubborn and refused to get up. "Miss, no one punished me. I punished myself. Please let me kneel down!"

Zhou Ru was even more confused: "Why? It's freezing cold, and you're kneeling like this. Do you want to save your legs?"

Zhou Tong couldn't hold back his emotions any longer when he heard her caring words, and he choked up, "It doesn't matter what happens to me, but Xianghuan..."

Realizing that he couldn't help but let the cat out of the bag, Zhou Tong immediately stopped talking.

However, Zhou Ru still heard what she was supposed to hear.

"Xianghuan, what happened to Xianghuan?"

She asked why Xianghuan had not appeared since she woke up, and looking at Zhou Tong's reaction, something must have happened.

At this moment, Vanilla, who had gone to the kitchen to get food, came back. Seeing Zhou Ru, she said disapprovingly, "Miss, why did you come out? It's cold outside. Go back to the house!"

Zhou Ru looked at Xiangcao with a serious face and asked, "Tell me, what happened to Xianghuan?"
