Lian Xiao couldn't take a nap and didn't want to disturb Lian Suisui's sleep, so he huddled in the quilt and cried until half of his body was numb, and he turned over secretly.
"Fourth sister, can't you sleep?"
"Did I disturb you? I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."
Lian Xiaoxiao's voice was very low, "I didn't mean to trouble you, it's just that I..."
She didn't like to cause trouble to others. If she hadn't been too panicked at the time, she wouldn't have had the courage to come to the door in the middle of the night.
Lian Suisui patted her on the back and comforted her: "I'm glad that you think of me first when you encounter difficulties. You are not a trouble to me, you are my sister and a very important person."
"Don't be afraid, we will face any difficulties together."
Lian Xiao was deeply moved, but he had already cried all his tears. He felt his eyes were hot but could not shed any tears.
"Go to sleep."
Lian Xiaoxiao quickly fell asleep under her comfort, but his eyes were swollen to walnuts the next morning.
Lian Suisui burst out laughing.
"Xiao Tao, go and get some ice cubes to put on Miss Fourth's eyes."
Lian Xiao smiled sheepishly.
"It's causing trouble for Third Sister."
Pei Shu prepared toiletries and Suisui put on clothes.
"No trouble, just get up and wash up first. I'll go back with you after breakfast."
The clothes that Lian Xiaoxiao had received yesterday were washed and not yet dried. The sewing room changed the new clothes that Lian Sui had not worn all night long.
"Where is the prince?"
We eat together every morning and get used to Chu Zhiyi's presence. It's a bit uncomfortable to not see him at first.
"I don't know. Even Shuying doesn't know where he went. I've searched the front and back yards, but no one was found."
I haven't heard of him going out either...
"Forget it, tell Manager Ji later that I will go back to my parents' house today."
The only advantage of being married close is that she can go back whenever she wants. She doesn't have a mother-in-law above her, so no one cares about her, so she can do whatever she wants.
I feel freer than before I got married!
If she had known she would have agreed to Chu Zhiyi earlier!
Ji Ying prepared the carriage. After they left, Chu Zhiyi returned to the room and ordered his servants to fetch water to wash up. After being active all night, the evil thoughts in his heart finally dissipated.
Shuying and a group of secret guards: "..."
Their lives are worthless...
"Where's the princess?"
Shuying held her waist with both hands and walked with a limp. She ran to the next room and asked, only to find out that Lian Suisui had gone out.
"If there is anything going on with the Lian family, please report it immediately."
Shuying responded.
When the two sisters returned to Lian Mansion, Mrs. Qin still didn't know what had happened.
"Mom, the fourth sister came to my place last night and said that her father had arranged a marriage for her and wanted to send her to be a concubine in Prince Yun's Mansion."
"Is there such a thing?"
When Mrs. Qin heard this for the first time, she looked back at Grandma Fang in surprise.
"This is the first time this slave has heard of it. I haven't heard any rumors before."
Although the marriage of the children of the concubine in the house is decided by the head mother, if a man makes a marriage promise outside, the head mother will not be embarrassed. Qin is thinking about this matter, if it is just Lian Fangyu's wishful thinking. , there is still room for change in this matter.
Just be afraid, it’s King Yun’s intention, and Lian Fangyu agrees again, so it’s not going to be easy...
"Fourth sister, please tell mother clearly what happened."
She didn't know Lian Xiao's novel clearly. She only listened to it once last night and didn't hear the preface and the last part. She only heard the part where Lian Fangyu persuaded her and her aunt agreed.
"Mommy, send someone to call Mrs. Liu to ask about the situation."
Aunt Liu came to greet her this morning. She didn't see anything strange at that time, and she didn't say anything. I really didn't expect that Mrs. Liu could hold back so much about Lian Xiaoxiao's marriage. Was it because she was on guard against her or...
"Madam is here to bring me my concubine. What are your orders?"
Mrs. Liu felt guilty and did not dare to look up. She did not see Lian Xiaoxiao sitting beside her.
Mrs. Qin asked straight to the point: "What did the master tell you about the Fourth Miss's marriage last night?"
Mrs. Liu's thoughts are all written on her face. She used to come here to greet her every day, and she would always remind her about Lian Xiao's marriage. This morning, she came to greet her but didn't say a word. It seems that Lian Fangyu has already eaten it for her. Reassuring.
There was a moment of panic on Liu's face when Mrs. Qin revealed her thoughts.
"I didn't mean to hide it from my wife. The master said that the matter has not been decided yet and asked me not to talk nonsense. However, the master said that it was Prince Yun who took the initiative to come to the master to propose a marriage. It should be... nine out of ten that it will be successful?"
She couldn't hide the joy on her face, "Prince Yun, that's the prince. Being a concubine in the prince's palace is much better than marrying an ordinary person. Besides, the destiny of a concubine is either to be a concubine, or to marry someone else." If the bastard of the family marries the prince, his status will be higher.
And according to the master's wishes, if King Yun becomes the emperor in the future, he can also find a concubine in the house. When the tide rises, she can also become a relative of the emperor...
Mrs. Qin's eyes were cold and self-righteous, and he could not see it normally, but now he saw that Mrs. Liu had such great ambitions!
In the past, Mrs. Liu would never have dared to think like this, nor would she dare to speak like this in front of Mrs. Qin, but the master stayed in her yard for two days in a row, the eldest son made a mistake and was punished by kneeling down, and Mrs. Zhang was ill. In the back house of the Lian family, she was the most favored...
Once a person is fascinated by the short-term wealth, he cannot see clearly who treats her sincerely.
"Auntie, you never thought about whether I was willing or not?"
Lian Xiaoxiao choked up, and Ms. Liu looked up, only to find that she was there. Looking at the skirt she was wearing, Ms. Liu didn't even notice that she was not at home last night.
Looking to the side, Lian Suisui is also there.
"Fourth Miss, I am doing it for your own good. I come from a humble background and have never saved a decent dowry for you in my whole life. You are a concubine and you marry into someone else's house to be the head wife. Others will bully you and look down on you. "
"It will be different if you become a concubine for King Yun. You are from a good background and have a master to support you. You are a noble concubine, which is different from ordinary concubines. As long as you don't make mistakes, Princess Yun can't do anything to you. When the time comes, you will give birth to a child. A son and a half daughters, if they have a firm foothold in the palace, it will be enough for them to have food and drink for a lifetime..."
"Besides, the heir she gave birth to is a member of the royal family and will not delay her future marriage. Hasn't my aunt thought carefully enough?"
Seeing that Lian Xiao's little eyes were swollen, Mrs. Liu guessed that she was probably unwilling, but there was no other way. She couldn't watch her go out every day to learn some medical skills. They were all low-class things. Whose family Serious lady, go and learn those...
Of course, she didn't dare to say it. Miao Shutang belonged to Lian Suisui. If she said it, she would offend Lian Suisui.
Lian Xiaoxiao looked at her in disbelief.
Did these words come from her aunt's mouth?
Why doesn't she recognize her aunt?
"Auntie, what if I don't want to?"
Mrs. Liu glanced at Mrs. Qin and saw that Mrs. Qin had no intention of intervening, so she persuaded her earnestly: "Don't be stupid, why don't you want to get such a good marriage? You let your wife judge the marriage, and you can still find King Biyun in the whole capital. A more noble man?"
When she begged Mrs. Qin to marry Lian Xiaoxiao, she was ignored every time, but what could she do?
She kept her head down and continued to beg her mistress to help her daughter find a good marriage.
But now, the mistress doesn't care about her daughter's marriage and lets her go out and show off all day long. If this spreads out, who would dare to come to ask for marriage?
