County government office.

Xue Qianqian looked at the makeup mirror that Liu Yiyi brought and was shocked.

"Yiyi, you know exactly where you got this glass mirror from."

Xue Qianqian held the mirror, looking up and down, left and right, and was reluctant to let go. She had never seen a glass mirror that could reflect a person so clearly.

Compared to this, her bronze mirrors were simply weak.

"Hehe, it looks good, right?"

Liu Yiyi took the mirror from Xue Qianqian, looked at her beautiful self in the mirror, and couldn't stop smiling.

Especially when he saw the envy on Xue Qianqian's face, he felt even happier.

She didn't mean to show off, but she had seen how proud Xue Qianqian was when she gave her shampoo and shower gel before, and now she had finally made up for it.

Moreover, shampoo and shower gel are consumables. Once they are used up, they are gone, but this mirror can always be there.

What’s even better is that this glass mirror is small and easy to carry, unlike a bronze mirror which is bulky and can be taken anywhere.

Although they are good sisters, they still want to show off when they get good things.

"Yiyi, where did you get this glass mirror?"

"A friend gave it to me."

Naturally, Liu Yiyi was too embarrassed to tell anyone about what happened last night. Even to her best friend, she couldn't tell it and had to keep it to herself.

The two looked at each other in the mirror for a while, and Xue Qianqian said, "Yiyi, have you thought about what I told you yesterday?"

Liu Yiyi put away the makeup mirror and her expression became serious.

"Do you really want to escape the marriage and go to Yiyun Village?"

"Um."

Xue Qianqian nodded.

Liu Yiyi said: "Qianqian, he is a bandit and you are the county magistrate's daughter. It is impossible for you two to be together. I will not help you with this."

Xue Qianqian suddenly became anxious, "Yiyi, didn't you want me to take you to the village before? Why did you change your mind now?"

Liu Yiyi shook her head. "These are two different things. I just want to see if that bandit is as amazing as you said. It doesn't mean that I support you being with him."

"You are the daughter of the county magistrate, and you carry the honor of the Xue family. But he is just a bandit who robs people all day and is despised by the world."

"The gap between your status is like the stars in the sky and the swamp on the earth. It is so different that it is difficult to cross."

Liu Yiyi paused and continued, "If you really escaped from marriage and went to Yiyun Village to be with the bandits, it would not only cause a severe blow to your father's career, but also make the entire Xue family a laughing stock and be despised by those famous families."

"Even if it's me, I'm afraid my family will forbid me from associating with you. Qianqian, the Pei family is a noble family, and marrying Pei Feng is not bad. It will not only help your father's career, but also improve your Xue family's foundation and prestige. Don't be confused for a moment."

Xue Qianqian lowered her head and said nothing. She knew what Liu Yiyi said, but she just couldn't forget Pei Yun.

She felt that the days in the mountain village were the happiest time in her sixteen years, and she would never forget Pei Yun's concern for her.

She originally thought that the Zhang family had called off the engagement and she was no longer in shackles, but unexpectedly she was put into another pair of shackles.

Is it so difficult to be with the person you love?

She wanted to say that she didn't care about family background or other people's opinions, but she couldn't say it. She could not care, but what about her father and mother? What about the entire Xue family?

Seeing that Xue Qianqian was not in a good mood, Liu Yiyi placed the makeup mirror on the table and said, "You can use the glass mirror first, and return it to me after your wedding."

“Yiyi…”

Xue Qianqian looked up. She was still a little unwilling to give up. If Liu Yiyi hadn't helped her, she would not have been able to escape the marriage.

But Liu Yiyi had already stood up and left.

Alas~

Xue Qianqian sighed. Is this her fate? She must marry into a noble family and cannot choose her own happiness.

"Miss, Miss, something bad has happened."

Just as Xue Qianqian was feeling sorry for herself, Yuzhu ran in with a portrait in her hand.

"Miss, Mr. Pei was beaten up last night. This person is the assassin. Now the whole city is looking for him. If you find him, you must make him pay."

Yuzhu spoke angrily.

She felt that the young lady and Pei Feng were a perfect match, and that they were well-matched. Once the young lady married, she would follow him to serve her brother-in-law, and maybe even become a maid.

Unexpectedly, the son-in-law was beaten. After putting the portrait on the table, Yuzhu took out a straw man and a needle and covered the man with the portrait.

"Miss, do you want to do it or should I do it?"

Xue Qianqian: (￣▽￣)"

"Yuzhu, I've told you so many times not to mess around with these things, why didn't you listen?"

"Miss, that thief is too abominable. He must be taught a lesson."

Yuzhu said this and was about to give her an acupuncture treatment.

"Wait." Xue Qianqian stopped her.

Yuzhu was delighted, thinking that the young lady was going to acupuncture herself to take revenge. Although she said that she didn't want to get married, she still felt sorry for Mr. Pei and hurriedly handed over the needle.

Xue Qianqian ignored her, picked up the portrait, and after looking at it carefully, she was shocked.

Isn’t the person painted on it the Pei Yun that she has been thinking about all the time?

Although the painting is somewhat abstract, it is still recognizable if you look carefully.

She said, "Yuzhu, tell me exactly what happened last night."

Seeing Xue Qianqian's serious expression, Yuzhu told her everything she had heard.

"You said Pei Feng was seriously injured?"

Yuzhu nodded.

Xue Qianqian fell into deep thought. Why did Pei Yun go to the Pei family to assassinate Pei Feng? They both had the surname Pei. Could they have some connection?

Xue Qianqian had never thought about it in this way before, thinking that one was a nobleman and the other was a bandit, so how could they be related?

But now something seems to be wrong. Pei Yun knew that if he entered the county town and was recognized as a bandit, the government would definitely arrest him, but he still came and took the risk to go to the Pei family.

She heard from Liu Yiyi that the Pei family held a private discussion last night, and with so many people present, they still went for the assassination. This must be a deep hatred.

At present, it seems that Brother Pei has not succeeded and Pei Feng is still alive.

Xue Qianqian bit her lip, her long eyelashes trembling slightly. Brother Pei is such a good man, but he risked his life to kill Pei Feng.

Pei Feng must have done something to let Brother Pei down.

Since you can't escape marriage, just follow your parents' arrangements.

Whatever Brother Pei has not completed, I will help him complete it.

At this moment, Xue Qianqian made up her mind to marry Pei Feng, so that her parents would be happy, and then if Pei Feng was killed, Brother Pei would also be happy.

Of course she had to do it secretly, otherwise if it was discovered that she had murdered a young man from a noble family, even her father would not be able to protect her.

Brother Pei, I can't marry you anymore, but my heart will always be yours.

Pei Feng, I'm sorry. Although you and I have no grudges against each other, you are Brother Pei's enemy, and that means you are my, Xue Qianqian's enemy!
