She was the illegitimate daughter of the prefect. Her father, appreciating a certain general, betrothed his daughter to him and introduced him to Prince Xian. Living up to expectations, he became a...
"Is this the family tradition of your Ren family?"
"Can you just barge into other people's backyards and hug women?"
"Fortunately, we're in the backyard of Yuan's mansion, and there's no one else..."
As he spoke, Yuan Xiao suddenly woke up and didn't want to shout loudly and disturb the people in the front yard.
He was so angry that he grabbed Ren Zhaoxi's shoulders and dragged him away to scold him.
No matter how poor Yuan Ruiyu was, she still had the help of the maids in the Yuan Mansion. How could it be his turn to need the help of the Third Young Master Ren?
It was also seen by Madam Fang, but fortunately it happened in Yuan’s own backyard and no outsiders knew about it!
The uncles and aunts in the front yard were very confused. Why was there no one from Yuan’s house?
Is this still a family dinner?
Only the servants and maids of the Yuan Mansion were serving meals and tea.
Li Garden.
Yuan Xueyue had just sat down for a while when she heard Cuiping trotting in and saying, "Miss, Miss, something happened!"
Yuan Xueyue frowned and said,
"Why didn't I notice you being so reckless before? What happened?"
Cuiping bowed, came closer and said, "..."
"There's such a thing!"
Yuan Xueyue's face was filled with shock and fear, and she clenched the handkerchief tightly in her hand.
Fortunately, she declined Madam Fang's offer of wine, otherwise if she had been so polite as to toast her uncles, she would have had a reaction as soon as she drank it!
Now the one who is being laughed at and embarrassed in the backyard is Yuan Xueyue!
Cuiping said angrily, "It is true! I saw Madam Fang go to Yilan Courtyard with my own eyes, muttering something to herself!"
"I was very suspicious, so I caught a maid in the backyard and asked her. She said that the second young lady felt unwell after drinking the glass of wine that should have belonged to you, young lady."
"The doctor is here now, and there's no one in the front yard to entertain the Yuan family elders."
Yuan Xueyue asked, "Where is Master Yuan?"
Cuiping stepped forward and whispered, "The master has arrested Third Young Master Ren. I wonder if Third Young Master Ren has gotten into trouble too."
“…”
After he finished speaking, Yuan Xueyue had a rough idea in her mind.
Fortunately, she did not drink the glass of wine and was always on guard against Fang Fengai's actions!
"Okay, go and take another look to see what exactly happened." Yuan Xueyue ordered.
"Yes, I'll go right away!"
Cuiping left happily and continued to find out the news.
The Yuan Mansion is really not a big place. After creating a myth, it only took a short while for the backyard to become restless.
Yuan Xueyue breathed a sigh of relief and buried her head in writing.
After the uncles left, the servants of Yuan Mansion also cleaned up the front yard when it was late at night and everyone was asleep.
Yuan Ruiyu woke up from the bed, opened her eyes, and felt sore and numb all over. Every time she moved, her whole body hurt!
When the maid saw her wake up, she immediately brought a glass of water and said, "Second Miss, you are finally awake."
"Thank goodness, go call the lady!"
The maid guarding the door went to look for Fang Feng Ailai.
Yuan Ruiyu's eyes were dull as she said blankly, "What happened? My head hurts, and my body feels uncomfortable too."
The maid explained,
"You forgot that you accidentally drank the lady's glass of wine..."
After the explanation, Yuan Ruiyu drank the cup of water and angrily threw it to the ground!
Bang, shattered into pieces!
"Nonsense! How could my mother do such a thing?" Yuan Ruiyu couldn't believe that her mother would prepare such a dangerous wine and let her drink it by mistake.
The maid fell to her knees on the ground, begging for mercy with tears in her eyes, "Please spare me, Second Miss, what I said is true!"
"Madam will be here soon. You can ask her yourself!"
Yuan Ruiyu fell silent, with an increasingly disbelieving look in her eyes.
"Ruiyu, Ruiyu!"
Fang Fengai's voice was heard outside the door. She came in with the help of a maid, walked quickly to sit beside Yuan Ruiyu on the bed, stretched out her hand to touch Yuan Ruiyu's face, but was pushed away!
“…” Fang Fengai’s hands froze and she was stunned.
"You're awake. Are you feeling unwell?" Fang Fengai asked with concern, looking tired.
"Is that wine...real?"
Fang Fengai was startled, lowered her eyes and turned away, hesitated for a long time, and nodded.
Yuan Ruiyu was shocked and asked, "Why are you doing this?"
"Why bother? This will make me be... "
As she spoke, Yuan Ruiyu lowered her head, unable to speak.
Her heart was pounding at this moment!
It’s an indescribable feeling, very subtle. I don’t mind being similar to Ren Zhaoxi, but I always feel like he’s getting a bargain!
Suddenly, Fang Fengai grabbed Yuan Ruiyu's hand and said sincerely, "Mother, this is for your own good!"
"Only if she embarrasses herself again will the palace consider the seriousness of this matter!"
"What if we change the bride to you and the prince gets angry?"
"That way, we can at least keep our Yuan Mansion safe!"
After hearing this, Yuan Ruiyu hesitated.
Originally, she didn't object to her mother's behavior, she just thought it was ridiculous, but now that Ren Zhaoxi has taken advantage of her, she is more or less a little wary.
She had an inexplicable feeling in her heart!
That follower Ren Zhaoxi insisted on coming to Lucheng, saying that he was worried about her!
Yuan Ruiyu was unsure and said,
"Mother, why don't we think about it again."
"After all, Yuan Xueyue was Madam Guo, and the prince never despised her. How could the prince give up on you if you do this?"
"My daughter thinks..."
Fang Fengai immediately interrupted, "Shut up! That's Prince Xian! What a distinguished status! If you successfully marry him and become his princess, we in the Yuan Mansion will have nothing to fear!"
"Don't say such discouraging words! We, mother and daughter, must work together. Yuan Xueyue, a mere figure, can't possibly compete with us!"
"When the time comes, your father will also help! He won't let her marry easily!"
