Chapter 35 Agree
The old lady was extremely satisfied with the marriage of the Marquis of Xuanping, and she was particularly fond of Huo Xifei. She ordered the maid, "Quickly find a seat for the prince!"
"Aunt Liu!" Huo Xifei bowed respectfully to Liu again!
"Good boy, no need to be so polite. You've lost so much weight after being away for so many months!" Liu was unwilling to let Huo Xi fly to the ceremony: "Hurry and sit down!"
"Yes!" Huo Xifei sat down as he was told and said to Madam Yuan with a smile, "Madam, I went out of the capital with my father on business and only arrived last night, so I came here today. I hope you won't blame me!"
"It's important to do business!" said the elder lady with a smile!
Huo Xifei ordered his men to present the four gifts: "This year's four gifts are what I brought back from Jiangnan. I hope the old lady will like them!"
"That's thoughtful!" The old lady smiled brightly when she saw the exquisite four-gift ceremony. The more attentive the man was to the four-gift ceremony, the more he valued the woman. How could she not be overjoyed? "You and the second girl haven't seen each other for three years!"
"Yes!" Huo Xifei looked at Yuan Ziyu with a gentle smile in his eyes: "You'er has grown a lot taller!"
Ever since Huo Xi flew in, Yuan Ziyou's eyes hadn't left him. Seeing him looking over, her face couldn't help but blush: "Brother Xi has grown a lot taller too!"
When she saw Huo Xifei again, Yuan Ziyu had a thousand words to say, but she didn't know where to start. She only knew that her heart was filled with joy.
Watching the interaction between the two little children, Madam Yuan and Mrs. Liu were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling, while Yuan Zitong on the side was secretly gritting her teeth!
Ever since she met Huo Xifei, she had been looking at him secretly, but Huo Xifei only had eyes for that bitch Yuan Ziyu, and he didn't even look at her. But now, the two of them were exchanging glances in front of her!
But she couldn't say anything and couldn't do anything. This feeling of frustration filled Yuan Zitong's heart with deep hatred!
If it weren't for Yuan Ziyu, that annoying bitch, would Huo Xifei's eyes have fallen on her?
Yuan Zitong felt that if she stayed in the room any longer, her grandmother would definitely notice something was wrong, so she stood up and said, "Grandma, I want to go back to Zihua Courtyard to see my mother."
The elder lady said, "That's right. Go ahead and tell your mother what I said. Let her recover from her illness in peace!"
"Yes!" Yuan Zitong responded softly.
The elder lady then smiled at Huo Xifei and said, "This is my other granddaughter. You must have seen her before. She is the most filial and polite one!"
Hearing the elder lady talking about herself to Huo Xifei, Yuan Zitong felt shy and timid, and bowed to Huo Xifei: "Zitong greets the prince!"
"Hmm!" Huo Xifei hummed lightly, without looking at Yuan Zitong.
Yuan Zitong felt slightly disappointed, so she bowed to Madam Yuan and Liu again, and left with Lian Qiao!
Huo Xifei chatted with Madam Yuan and Liu for a while, then he heard the little girl's voice outside: "Second Master!"
Then, Yuan Qilei lifted the curtain and walked in.
As soon as Yuan Qilei entered the room and saw Huo Xifei, he was stunned for a moment and quickly bowed and said, "Prince!"
Huo Xifei nodded at Yuan Qilei. Seeing that Yuan Qilei seemed to be hesitant to speak, he smiled at Madam Yuan and said, "Old lady, I'll take my leave now!"
The elder lady smiled and said, "Very well, since today is the first day of the lunar year, I will not keep the prince here. Go back and give my regards to the old lady, the marquis, and his wife!"
"Of course!" Huo Xifei replied with a smile!
The elder lady then ordered Liu: "Old lady's wife, please send the prince off on my behalf!"
"Yes!" Liu replied!
After Liu's mother and daughter and Huo Xifei left Shousong Hall, Yuan Qilei bowed to Madam Yuan and said, "Mother, I made you angry last night. It was my fault. I'm here to apologize!"
"Hmph!" The elder lady dropped her smile and snorted coldly: "Aman, help me go back and lie down."
Nanny Bai responded and helped the elder lady up.
"Mother!" Yuan Qilei hurried forward and knelt before Madam Yuan Lao. "Mother, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me!"
"You'd better go back to your concubine and be a filial son and grandson!" said the elder lady with a cold face.
Yuan Qilei said hurriedly: "Mother, I really know my mistakes. Considering my eagerness to have a child, please forgive me this time. I will listen to you and will not marry Chen Yan for the time being. I will just let her be a maid first."
"Are you serious?" Lady Yuan stopped and asked after hearing Yuan Qilei's words.
Yuan Qilei showed a forbearing expression: "Mother, every word I say is true. I admit that I really like Chen Yan, but I shouldn't disobey you. I am unfilial. Please forgive me."
As he spoke, he kowtowed several times to the elder lady.
Madam Yuan had always been partial to Yuan Qilei. After a night, her anger had mostly subsided. She was just sad that her son only cared about that vixen. Now, after hearing Yuan Qilei's words and seeing him sincerely kowtow and admit his fault, and thinking that Yuan Qilei didn't even have a son yet, and felt that he had no son at all, her heart softened: "Forget it, if you really like her, then marry her. But you are not allowed to favor a concubine over your wife. If what happened last night happens again, I will never forgive that vixen!"
After hearing what Madam Yuan said, Yuan Qilei was overjoyed. Chen Yan's idea was indeed a good one. Look, didn't his mother agree to it?
"Mother!" Yuan Qilei looked flattered and looked at Madam Yuan in disbelief: "You, you really agree that I marry Chen Yan?"
"Alas!" The elder lady sighed. She had always valued rules, but every time she saw Lei'er, she couldn't help but soften her heart. Never mind, he was her son after all. "If you agree, then marry her, so you don't have to complain about having an empty child every day."
"Thank you, mother!" Yuan Qilei said sincerely this time: "Your son will definitely let you hold another big fat grandson."
"Alright!" Madam Yuan looked at Yuan Qilei and said, "Go and see Ning. No matter what, she is your legal wife. Whether you marry that vixen today or have more concubines in the future, she will not be your wife."
"Yes, mother!" Yuan Qilei was delighted to get the consent of the Elder Madam. Naturally, he was willing to follow the Elder Madam's wishes and go to see Ning. After all, the two had lived together for more than ten years and had feelings for each other.
Yuan Zitong went to Zihuayuan to see Ning. Ning had already woken up. The mother and daughter talked for a while, and then Yuan Zitong left Zihuayuan.
Just as he was about to cross the garden and return to Tongxiang Courtyard, he saw Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu walking towards Meilin from afar.
Yuan Zitong wanted to go over without thinking. When Lian Qiao saw her, she hurriedly said, "Miss, you can't go over now!"
Lian Qiao's words brought Yuan Zitong back to her senses. Looking at the backs of Yuan Ziyu and Huo Xifei, she clenched her hands tightly in her sleeves.
"Let's go back!" Yuan Zitong said hatefully, gritting her teeth.
