Chapter 4 Thoughts
With a "pop", the sound of porcelain breaking was heard in Tongxiangyuan!
"Oh, my dear, please be careful with your hands!" Yuan Zitong's maid Lian Qiao hurried forward to rub Yuan Zitong's hands, and at the same time directed the little maid to quickly clean up the porcelain fragments on the ground, so as not to hurt her dear daughter's feet!
"Hmph, that damn girl is so lucky. She actually managed to survive in such a cold weather!" Yuan Zitong slammed Huang Lihua's table with one hand in hatred, and then couldn't help but let out a "hiss"!
"Miss, be careful with your hands!" Lian Qiao hurried forward and gently held up Yuan Zitong's right hand. When she looked at her palm, it was indeed red. She rubbed her hand gently and said, "Miss, why do you hurt yourself? Look, your palm is red. When the lady sees it later, she will be so distressed!"
Yuan Zitong's mother, Ning, is Yuan Qilei's wife. In the general's mansion, she should be called the second lady. However, the second house privately calls her "Madam" directly and does not take Liu seriously at all.
"Humph!" Yuan Zitong pulled her hand out, looked at the red mark on her palm, and gritted her teeth, "Why didn't that damn girl die?"
"Miss, walls have ears, please keep your voice down!" Lian Qiao quickly patted Yuan Zitong's shoulders and comforted her, "There's still a long way to go, don't worry!"
Yuan Zitong was about to say something when she heard her mother's voice coming from the door: "That's right, there's still a long time to go, why are you in such a hurry?"
"Mom!" Yuan Zitong shouted unwillingly, "Are you still keeping her to compete with me for Brother Huo?"
Ning glared at Yuan Zitong and said, "You're not as steady as Lian Qiao. If Lian Qiao wasn't so careful, would you have wanted to make your thoughts known to everyone in the mansion?"
Yuan Zitong pouted unconvincedly, turned her head away and said nothing!
Ning gave Lian Qiao a wink, and Lian Qiao understood, so she bowed and left the room!
"Hey, Tong'er!" Ning sighed and sat next to Yuan Zitong: "Don't you think I don't understand?"
"Mom!" Yuan Zitong said coquettishly, "Since you understand my daughter's thoughts, please help her!"
Ning glared at Yuan Zitong and said, "You're too impatient this time. If I hadn't cleaned up the mess for you, you would have been punished by your grandmother!"
Ning knew that although her mother-in-law loved her daughter very much, her husband had no son after all, and her eldest son was responsible for her support in her old age. Moreover, her uncle had two sons. Naturally, her mother-in-law could not watch the second daughter being bullied. If she knew what her daughter had done, she would probably not let it go!
"But, mother, I just like Brother Huo!" Yuan Zitong pouted. Ever since she saw Huo Xifei three years ago when he flew to the house to pay a visit to her grandmother, she could never let him go. She had never seen such a handsome man before!
But who would have thought that such a handsome man was actually her cousin's fiancé, which made Yuan Zitong's heart jealous!
Why, why does her cousin have all the benefits? Her father is a general who protects the country, and she has two brothers who dote on her. Now, she has such a handsome fiancé!
Why! Why!
Yuan Zitong was unwilling to accept this. She wanted to marry this man. Such an outstanding man should belong to her!
Unfortunately, her efforts over the past three years have had no effect at all. Every time Huo Xifei came to see her grandmother, she tried her best to show her best side in front of Huo Xifei. However, Huo Xifei was like a blind man and could not see her good side at all!
Huo Xifei is her cousin's fiancé, so she can't get close to him. If her grandmother finds out, she will definitely be in trouble!
Then the only way is that her cousin is gone. As long as Yuan Ziyu is no longer in this world, then as Yuan Ziyu's only cousin, she can naturally marry in her sister's place and marry into the Huo family!
She waited for three years and finally got the chance!
However, she didn't expect that the dead girl was so lucky that the cold lake water didn't even take her life!
How could she not hate him?
"Oh, mother knows!" Ning sighed and hugged Yuan Zitong in her arms: "But don't be impatient. Your cousin is only twelve years old now, and you are only fourteen. There are still many years to go! Why are you so impatient?"
In this dynasty, women must not be younger than sixteen to get married, and men must not be younger than twenty to get married!
Therefore, in Ning's opinion, there are at least two or three years left to operate!
"Mom, I won't marry anyone except Brother Huo!" Yuan Zitong took the opportunity to make an suggestion. She just wanted to let her mother know that she only liked Brother Huo, so that her mother could plan for her wholeheartedly!
"Mother understands!" Ning said dotingly. She only had this one daughter, so naturally she had to pamper her like the apple of her eye!
Naturally, she would give her daughter what she wanted, and would help her daughter get it no matter what. As for Yuan Ziyu, the worst that could happen is that she would be compensated with a husband. It happened that her eldest brother's second son was seventeen years old this year and had not yet been engaged. If she could let her nephew marry Yuan Ziyu, she could get a generous dowry!
I believe that considering how much Liu dotes on Yuan Ziyu, a dowry is definitely necessary!
"Mom, what are you thinking about?" Yuan Zitong asked hurriedly when she saw Ning was in a daze!
Ning came back to her senses, looked at Yuan Zitong and smiled, "Tong'er, don't worry, you will definitely get what you want!"
"Thank you, mother!" After getting Ning's promise, Yuan Zitong was immediately overjoyed. She snuggled into Ning's arms and kept saying nice things, which made Ning very happy!
Although I don’t have a son, my daughter is so nice and considerate!
When Tong'er and the boy from the Huo family get married, let one of their children take the daughter's surname, and everything will be perfect!
"Tong'er, you can't reveal any of your thoughts in front of Yuan Ziyu, okay?" Ning warned worriedly!
"Don't worry, Mom. Look how well I did this time. That idiot didn't even know why he fell into the water!" Yuan Zitong said proudly!
"You!" Ning smiled and sighed, gently tapping Yuan Zitong's forehead and saying, "Go and see Yuan Ziyu tomorrow. Let everyone in the mansion see that you sisters are getting along well!"
"I know, Mom!"
