"What? How can this be possible? My sister is still alive, she just needs some time to recover. As the eldest sister, how can I do such a thing!"

Lianyi immediately shook her head.

"Lianyi, I won't hide it from you. Your sister will only be gone for the next one or two days."

After hearing what the Marquis' wife said, Lianyi did not rush to refuse this time. She just pursed her lips and said nothing.

Madam Hou wiped the tears from her eyes and continued:

"Lian Yi, you are my daughter, a young lady of the Marquis's Mansion. Only a marriage like the Lin Mansion is worthy of you. It is only because of your status that I have to reluctantly find a less suitable marriage for you.

But God is on your side. This marriage is destined to happen to you. It can be regarded as my compensation to you. You are now a member of the Marquis' Mansion. I hope you can consider the Marquis' Mansion more."

After hearing what the Marquis's wife said, Lianyi felt moved, not to mention her original ignorant self.

"Mother, please let me think about it. I always feel that I am sorry for my sister."

Lianyi said in a pretentious manner.

"It's not your fault. It's your sister who is unlucky."

Madam Hou sighed.

Lianyi stayed with the Marquis's wife for a while before returning to Bilan Garden.

Nanny Sun followed Lianyi into the inner room, asked Hongqi and Lucui to leave, and then whispered:

"Miss, this is a good opportunity, you must seize it."

Lianyi glanced at Nanny Sun, sighed, and didn't respond.

"Miss, God is helping you this time. If you don't seize this opportunity, are you willing to marry a useless playboy?

The one we met that day was introduced by the official media. Rather than wasting her whole life in a small family, it would be better to marry into the Lin family.

I have already inquired for the young lady. Lin Yaozu is the only heir of the Shangshu Mansion. Madam Lin has only this one son, and Shangshu Lin is also focusing on training this son.

Apart from Lin Yaozu, the Lin family has only two illegitimate daughters. When you marry into the Lin family, you will be the legal wife. You don't have to pay any attention to the two illegitimate daughters at all. When they get older, you can send them away with just two dowries. They will still remember your kindness.

Young lady is in good health. Once you marry into the Lin family and give birth to a boy or girl, your status will be unshakable. Just educate your child well, and when Madam Lin is gone, you will be able to be the head of the family."

Nanny Sun’s persuasion is still very powerful. Every woman yearns for such a life.

Unfortunately, Elder Lianyi didn't buy it, but she still pretended to be interested and frowned:

"Madame Sun, I know you are doing this for my own good. I am very confused right now. Please let me think about it."

"Miss, please rest assured. I am someone close to you. We definitely hope that you will be well. Only when you are well can we be well."

Nanny Sun said one more thing and then left the inner room, advising people to be moderate and not to overdo it.

After Nanny Sun left, Lianyi calmly began to practice calligraphy with no expression on her face.

Duoduo has returned. She sent a message to Lianyi:

"Master, Marquis Anding has returned. He already knows about your existence, and he has agreed to let you marry in his place."

"Yes, I understand."

Lianyi was not surprised at all. In the eyes of these people, her daughter's marriage was just a bargaining chip in their hands.

Three days later, the marquis's wife came to Bilan Garden with a group of followers. Lianyi immediately pretended to be flattered.

"Mother, I was just about to go and pay my respects, why are you here?"

"I came to see if you're used to living here and buy you some more things."

As soon as the Marquis's wife waved her hand, the people behind her immediately filed in and placed the jade ornaments in their hands in the appropriate positions according to Nanny Sun's instructions.

Madam Hou took Lianyi's hand and went to the inner room, then she said:

"Lianyi, what have you thought about? If you really don't want to, mother won't make it difficult for you. You just need to go to the Lin family as soon as possible to cancel this marriage."

The Marquis' wife had already discussed this with Nanny Sun, so she took a tactic of retreating in order to advance.

"Mother, I have thought it over. I am willing to marry Lin Yaozu in place of my sister. This is also my way of repaying mother for giving birth to me. After marrying into the Lin Mansion, I will definitely maintain a good relationship between the Hou Mansion and the Lin Mansion."

Lianyi said as if she had made a great decision.

"Good boy, I knew you wouldn't let your mother get into trouble."

"Mother, I want to go to the Huguo Temple to pray for my younger sister. It's my way of expressing my gratitude."

Lianyi lowered her eyes and said.

The Marquis's face was grim for a moment, then returned to its original sad look and said:

"You are so thoughtful. I will arrange for you to go to Huguo Temple tomorrow, but this time you will be the daughter of the Marquis's mansion."

"I see."

The Marquis's wife felt a little frustrated. If it wasn't for maintaining good relations between the two families, he wouldn't have to coax his eldest daughter like this. Especially now that the other party was taking advantage of her, it made her even more upset.

Ever since Yingtao was demoted to a second-class maid, she has been looking for an opportunity to return to Lianyi's side. Can a personal maid have the same status as a second-class maid? She has clearly felt that the servants are ostracizing her.

The main reason was that she had relied on her status as the head maid and had not taken those servants and domestic servants seriously. So when something happened this time, no one spoke for her.

Yingtao went to see Nanny Sun twice, and all she got was just asking him to wait patiently, nothing else.

Seeing the young lady's status getting higher and higher, she couldn't help but start to get anxious. When she heard that the young lady was going to Huguo Temple the next day, she became anxious and gritted her teeth to stuff one of her gold bracelets into Nanny Sun.

Nanny Sun shook the gold bracelet in her hand, then stuffed it into her arms with satisfaction and said to Yingtao:

"Wait a minute. I'll go tell the young lady. I see she's in a good mood today."

Then Nanny Sun walked into the house.

After a while, Nanny Sun came out again and said to Yingtao:

"Come in, the lady wants to see you."

After hearing this, Yingtao's face lit up with joy. She thanked Nanny Sun and quickly went into the inner room.

"Miss, Cherry knows she's wrong."

Cherry knew the situation and knelt down to admit her mistake.

"Get up! Have you learned your lesson this time?"

Ripple asked, raising an eyebrow.

"I know my mistake and I will never make the same mistake again."

"You've gotten a little cocky since you came back with me this time. Look who has pleaded for you after you were punished. No one has pleaded for you. I can't even find a way out. Tell me..."

Ripple said faintly.

At this time, Yingtao also hated everyone else in the yard. The young lady punished her, a maid, and no one stood up to mediate, allowing her to be ignored for so long.

"Miss, you are right. It is Cherry that is not well made. It embarrasses Miss."

Cherry fell to the ground and kept apologizing for her mistake, saying that she wanted to go back to the young lady first.

"Okay, get up! Go down and get ready. Accompany me to the Huguo Temple to pray for blessings tomorrow."

"Yes, Miss!"

Two months after being demoted, Cherry returned to Lianyi, but this time she didn't dare to be arrogant anymore.

The next day, Lianyi left the mansion from the main gate in a carriage with her maids, servants and guards.

Lianyi looked at the plaque on the door of Marquis Anding and smiled. Today, the Marquis's Mansion gave her the status of the legitimate daughter, so she should not dream of taking it back in the future.
