Chapter 530: It’s Better to Do It Now
Mo Jinchuan raised the corners of his lips and said with a smile, "Of course I'll go home and prepare the betrothal gifts overnight."
Meeting his smiling eyes, Song Yanxi's cheeks heated up, and she lowered her eyebrows and said, "There's no need to be so anxious."
"Urgent, how can I not be anxious?"
Recalling Lin Tingfeng's persistent appearance, Mo Jinchuan's eyes darkened slightly, "We should do what needs to be done sooner rather than later, so as to avoid more trouble later."

"How can a human being be so shameless!" Qiu Lingqi's eyes turned red, and he stood up suddenly and was about to walk out.
Song Yanxi stopped her, and said with disgust in her eyes: "Lin Tingfeng is narrow-minded. It's only a matter of time before he bites back."
But she didn't expect that he would be so eager to throw dirty water on her.
The General's Mansion now actually has extra money to support him in bribing those people to spread rumors about her everywhere in an attempt to discredit her reputation.
Qiu Ling said angrily, "He's a man after all. He refused to treat my sister well before, and now he's doing this again after the divorce.
I should have spit in his face that day at the General's Mansion. It was so disgusting."
Thinking about the words she had just learned, Song Yanxi said with a cold face: "It's not worth it to get angry and hurt yourself because of this kind of person."
Qiu Ling was unwilling to accept this. "Are we just going to let people outside slander my sister?"
She gritted her teeth, tears welling up in her eyes as she said aggrievedly, "There are even uglier ones, but I didn't even dare to learn from my sister."
Song Yanxi arched her brows and asked, "Are they saying that I'm shameless and have already been involved with the prince?"
Qiu Ling nodded, her eyes subtle as she said, "Some people also say that my sister was very close to my brother when she was in the border town."
Judging from what she just said, being close is a completely nice way of putting it.
Some people would probably directly say that she is fickle and that she not only hooked up with Mo Jinchuan, but also did not let go of the young Qiu Zongping.
Seeing that Song Yanxi didn't say anything, Qiu Ling was afraid that she would be angry, so she hurriedly said, "Don't worry, sister. We all know what kind of person you are. We won't listen to the nonsense those people outside say!"
Thinking of something, she said angrily: "Don't let me see that Lin again, otherwise I will let my brother break his legs.
Yes, yes, and we'll even sew his mouth shut with needle and thread to see if he dares to talk nonsense again."
Song Yanxi was amused by her gestures and asked curiously, "How did Ling'er know that he was the one who leaked the news?"
"Do you even need to guess?" Qiu Ling put her hands on her waist and said angrily, "Now, there are people in Beijing who don't want my sister to have such a good life, and it's not just the Lin family."
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She reached out and took Song Yanxi's arm and said, "Luckily, sister escaped early, otherwise, I don't know what kind of torture I would have suffered at the hands of this family."
Qiu Ling couldn't help but sigh, not knowing what she was thinking about, and murmured, "What a pity."
Song Yanxi: "What a pity?"
"nothing."
Qiu Ling smiled sweetly at her and said, "Don't worry, sister. With my father here, he will definitely not let those people slander you like this.
And that Lin Tingfeng, let Daddy catch him and give him a good beating, and see if he dares to throw dirty water on me again in the future."
After saying this, she suddenly remembered the main reason she came to the general's mansion today.
She took Song Yanxi's arm and shook it gently, then asked, "Sister, are you free these two days? Do you want to come to my house for dinner?"
Didn’t you just go there a few days ago?
Meeting her eyes, Qiu Ling snorted softly and said, "If His Royal Highness Prince Jin hadn't been there last time, my mother wouldn't have been able to say a few words to my sister."
Afraid that Song Yanxi would refuse, she quickly added: Mother said that she likes my sister as a person, and even if we can't be mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, we will still keep in touch in the future.
Sister, other than my father and brother, this is the first time I’ve seen my mother like someone so much.”
Qiu Ling blinked her big eyes, "Sister, you definitely don't want to disappoint mother, right?"
Song Yanxi: “…”
The girl was right, she really couldn't bear it.
But she really didn't have time to go to the Gu family these two days.
Seeing the embarrassment on her face, Qiu Ling rolled her eyes and said quickly, "It's okay if you don't want to go. I'll come pick you up whenever you want."
Since she said so, it would be too unkind for Song Yanxi to refuse again.
She thought for a moment and said, "Let's wait a few days. Auntie's medicine is almost finished. I'll make some in the next two days and bring it over."
When Qiu Ling heard this, she hurriedly explained, "Sister, I didn't come here to ask you for medicine.
If my mother knew about this, she would definitely give me a good scolding.”
Song Yanxi chuckled, "Don't worry, auntie won't let you go."
"No way." Qiu Ling snorted, "You haven't seen how fiercely she scolds me on a daily basis."
Song Yanxi raised her eyebrows, "What did your aunt scold you for?"
Qiu Ling blushed and said angrily, "Sister Yanxi is so mean. She actually made fun of me."
As she spoke, she leaned closer to Song Yanxi's ear and whispered, "My mother said that if I don't control my temper, I might not be able to get married in the future."
When it comes to getting married, the little girl's face becomes long and her eyes look resentful as she says, "I really don't know what's so good about getting married. Isn't it good to stay at home?
What if I end up meeting the wrong person again, just like my sister did before? Wouldn't I have nowhere to cry?"
Qiu Ling sighed softly, her voice getting lower and lower, "Not everyone has the courage to jump out of that quagmire like my sister."
Perhaps she was thinking of someone, but she wiped her eyes, forced a smile, and said, "Let's not talk about this, let's talk about something happy."
She smiled and asked, "Sister, when does His Royal Highness Prince Jin plan to marry you as his princess?"
"The imperial decree granting the marriage has not yet come down. We have to wait for the auspicious date given by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory."
"It's so troublesome. Will it take some time for the prince to marry my sister home?" Qiu Ling's face showed more annoyance.
She clapped her hands and said with a chuckle, "I remember my father knew someone from the Imperial Observatory."
After she finished speaking, without waiting for Song Yanxi to speak, she denied herself and said, "No, my old-fashioned father will definitely not agree."
Not only would he not agree, he would also scold her.
Qiu Ling was a little angry and muttered quietly, "Why go through so much trouble? It's better to get married today than to wait for a better day. Let's get married in the next two days.
When you two become a legitimate couple, we'll see what those people have to say."
She gritted her teeth and said, "If you ask me, they are just jealous!"
When Song Yanxi heard her say that it was better to do it today than to wait for another day, she choked and coughed lightly, and quickly drank water to cover it up.
Before Mo Jinchuan left yesterday, he said that the longer the night, the more dreams he would have. I'm afraid this is what he was referring to.
The more Qiu Ling thought about it, the angrier she became. She slammed her hand on the table and said, "This Lin guy is going too far. He even had the nerve to ask his mother to sue my sister a few days ago. How shameless!"
She was filled with righteous indignation and said, "My sister only knows how to save people, how could she possibly hurt anyone? This is clearly a false accusation."
Song Yanxi drank her tea by herself and did not respond.
Qiu Ling changed the subject and asked again, "Sister, you really can't come to my house tomorrow?"
Song Yanxi nodded, her eyes cold as she said, "I have something to do tomorrow."
