Chapter 263 Marriage
On the second day, almost everyone in the capital knew that Yuan Zitong was about to marry into Prince Ning's mansion.
Although no one knows what position Yuan Zitong will hold after marrying into Prince Ning's Mansion, it does not prevent people from paying attention to and talking about this matter.
Some people envy it, some are jealous, and some are disdainful of it, but more of them just enrich people's after-dinner conversation.
Everyone in the capital knew that Prince Ning was not yet old enough to marry, and he had no principal wife, only a few concubines. If Yuan Zitong entered Prince Ning's mansion, needless to say, her status alone would make her the highest in the palace's backyard.
"Miss, have something to eat!" Lian Qiao said to Yuan Zitong while holding a bowl of green glutinous rice porridge.
"Put it there!" Yuan Zitong leaned lazily on the bed, without even looking at it, and said weakly.
Lian Qiao hurriedly advised: "Miss, you haven't eaten properly for two days, please eat something!"
"I said, just put it there, get out!" Yuan Zitong said impatiently, then turned around and stopped looking at Lian Qiao.
Lian Qiao had no choice but to put the green glutinous rice porridge on the table beside the bed and leave.
Yuan Zitong gritted her teeth and tears fell again. She could never forget Xuanyuan Xiao's cruel eyes and threatening words when they were in the houseboat that day.
She never expected that Xuanyuan Xiao hated the Yuan family so much, and that she became a victim because of this hatred, but she didn't dare to say a word about it.
But why was she the one to be sacrificed? It should have been Yuan Ziyu, wasn't it?
Oh! Madam!
She was only slightly better than a concubine, wasn't she just a plaything? No matter what, she was the legitimate daughter of a fifth-rank official. Being a concubine was fine, but such a wretched one at that!
Yuan Ziyou! Yuan Ziyou!
Yuan Zitong clenched her fists in hatred, and the anger and cruelty in her eyes became even stronger!
"This servant greets the master and the madam!"
Suddenly, the greetings of Lianqiao and Yinqiao were heard outside the house.
After hearing this, Yuan Zitong was stunned for a moment, and then she sneered. Her father must be crazy with joy at this moment. A fifth-rank official is now going to have a relationship with Prince Ning. How can he not be ecstatic?
I'm afraid he doesn't care at all about what will happen to her as his daughter when she goes to the palace!
really--
"Tong'er, why are you still staying in the house?" Yuan Qilei laughed. "Hurry up and choose some clothes and accessories. Prince Ning said he'd take you on a trip in a few days. Look, your mother even sent you all these wonderful things!"
"Father, Mother!" Yuan Zitong got down from the ground, straightened her clothes, and bowed to Yuan Qilei and Zuo. Her face was indifferent and she did not show any joy.
When Zuo Shi saw that Yuan Zitong's eyes were slightly red and swollen, she understood what was going on. Although she did not show it on her face, she was sneering in her heart. It was clear that this stepdaughter was not a good person since she married into the Yuan family. What's more, she even gave her the cold shoulder when she attended the banquet in the palace last time. Now that she was in this situation, she had no sympathy in her heart. Not adding insult to injury was already considered merciful.
Oh, it's really ironic that a legitimate daughter becomes a prince's concubine.
Zuo secretly glanced at Yuan Qilei again, feeling disdain in her heart. If this man was not her husband, she would not even look at him. Selling a girl for fame and fortune was just like this.
Yuan Qilei was filled with excitement, his mind full of thoughts about how he could use his connections in the palace to climb up the social ladder. Suddenly, noticing that Yuan Zitong didn't look happy, he frowned and said, "What are you doing? Who are you trying to show off to? You're getting married soon, and you're still so naive. How are you going to please the prince when you get to the palace?"
After saying this, seeing that Yuan Zitong didn't respond, he angrily said, "I'm telling you, if you make the prince angry, don't blame me as a father for disregarding the father-daughter relationship!"
Yuan Zitong couldn't help but look at Yuan Qilei: "Father, your daughter has become the concubine of Prince Ning. Are you so happy?"
"Tong'er!" Yuan Qilei said with a smile, "It's your blessing to be able to enter Prince Ning's Mansion."
"Even if my daughter wants to be a concubine who is almost the same as a maid?" Yuan Zitong said with a sneer.
"Tong'er, don't be so presumptuous!" Yuan Qilei's face darkened upon hearing this, and he said angrily, "This marriage is something I could have hoped for, so don't let me down, and don't imitate your mother's tricks. If you mess up this marriage, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"
After saying this, without waiting for Yuan Zitong to speak, he turned around and left angrily, leaving only the words: "Pick out some clothes and headgear for the young lady!"
Yuan Zitong was so angry at Yuan Qilei that she burst into tears, but she could do nothing. She wanted to smash the things that Zuo sent, but she didn't dare to do it. Xuanyuan Xiao's eyes and words were still clearly imprinted in her mind.
In the end, Yuan Zitong had no choice but to let Lian Qiao and Yin Qiao help her choose clothes and headwear.
Yuan Ziyu naturally knew about Yuan Zitong's affairs.
However, she didn't care about these things at all. As long as Yuan Zitong didn't cause trouble for her, she would completely ignore them.
What Yuan Ziyu cares about most now is Cui Ruxu's marriage!
No one knew what happened to Cui Ruxu at the garden party that day. After she came back, Cui Ruxu went to ask Mrs. Tang for help and told her about her intention to marry Zheng Xun. Mrs. Tang was so angry that she almost collapsed on her back. She never expected that her daughter, who had always been well-mannered and polite, would be so rebellious that she would even meet with a man outside her family and have private dealings with him.
Yuan Ziyu and Cui Ruxun were also surprised that Cui Ruxu would do this.
"Sister, what are you doing?" In Wuyou Pavilion, Cui Ruxun was furious. They had agreed to take it step by step and infiltrate slowly, but now, it was all over. The eldest aunt was so angry that she fell ill in bed, refusing to pay attention to the eldest sister and even refused to see her.
Cui Ruxu bit her lip and said nothing!
"Sister, please say something!" Cui Ruxun said anxiously, "If I had known that you left that day to see Zheng Xun, I would never have let you leave me!"
"Second cousin, now that things have happened, there's no point in being anxious. Why don't you think about how to solve the problem?" Yuan Ziyu quickly tried to comfort the furious Cui Ruxun.
"How else can this be resolved?" Cui Ruxun said angrily, "There's no way around it at all. Right now, my aunt doesn't want to see my sister and is sick in bed. I don't know how this will end!"
After saying this, seeing Cui Ruxu still didn't say anything, she angrily said, "Sister, tell me clearly, what exactly are you going to do?"
"He told me that he didn't want to delay me!" Cui Ruxu suddenly said softly.
Cui Ruxu looked at Yuan Ziyu and Cui Ruxun with tears in her eyes: "But I can't let him go!"
