Chapter 25: Make-up Wedding?



Chapter 25 Make-up wedding?

An Yunxi was surprised: "Mother!"

Madam An slowly opened her eyes when she heard An Yunxi's voice.

The glaring light made her blink her eyes, and after a moment she could see the figure sitting beside her bed.

"Xi'er?"

Her voice was a little weak and hoarse.

An Yunxi hurriedly said: "The medicine is ready, you drink it first."

Taking the medicine brought by the servant of the Marquis' Mansion, An Yunxi personally fed it to Madam An.

After drinking the medicine prescribed by the imperial physician, Madam An was able to stand up. She looked at An Yunxi and Ling Fengxun who were sitting in front of her and smiled, "Thank you, Your Highness, for taking so much trouble for my condition."

Ling Fengxun said casually, "It's just a piece of cake."

"Half of the imperial physicians in the court have been invited here, and it is indeed only Your Highness who can say that it is a piece of cake." A voice suddenly came from outside the door. It was

the Marquis of An Guo who rushed back when he heard that Madam An had woken up.

He obviously walked in a hurry, his face was slightly flushed, but his tone was full of respect for Ling Fengxun.

He dared not bury the contribution of the Regent King.

Madam An was shocked when she heard this.

"I didn't expect that I still owed the prince such a big favor."

An Yunxi glanced at Ling Fengxun, her eyes full of smiles.

Ling Fengxun looked at her briefly, then looked away, "It's because of Axi, Auntie, don't take this little thing to heart."

Madam An couldn't help laughing, and said to her daughter, "In this case, Xi'er, you should thank the prince on behalf of your mother."

An Yunxi's cheeks flushed slightly.

Her beautiful eyes were full of stars, and she couldn't hide her joy.

"I know, mother."

Seeing his niece and the regent prince so close, An Guohou's heart, which had been worried, was also calmed. He raised his hands to support this marriage.

But this matter couldn't be so smooth.

The sound of crutches suddenly came from outside the door.

Everyone in the room subconsciously looked in the direction of the door.

When Mrs. An heard the sound of the cane, her expression had changed significantly, and her face looked much paler.

An Yunxi realized who was coming.

The room suddenly became quiet, and the two figures who walked in from the door of the main hall also appeared in front of everyone in full.

The person in the lead was elderly, about fifty years old, wearing a crimson skirt, with gray hair and a cane in his hand, and a jade ring on his finger, which was very noble.

There was also a young woman who helped her walk in.

When seeing these two people, An Guohou had already walked out of the inner room and came to the outer hall to greet them, and saluted the old woman very respectfully.

"Mother, Madam, why are you here?"

An Yunxi naturally recognized the identities of the two people. The older one was the old marquis's second wife, Madam Du, and the younger woman was her aunt.

As a girl from an aristocratic family, An Yunxi also went out to pay her respects, "Yunxi has met grandmother and aunt."

Aunt Liu Xiyue smiled and said, "I heard that something happened to you, and even the wedding banquet with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was cancelled. Seeing that you are fine today, aunt is relieved."

An Yunxi smiled, knowing that the other party was just being polite.

Aunt Liu Xiyue has always hated to see her mother taking advantage of the marquis's mansion, saying that her mother is a daughter who is married off and can be spilled. She

also secretly warned her mother and daughter not to return to the marquis's mansion unless necessary.

Of course, in front of her uncle, Liu Xiyue did not dare to do so, and pretended to be very caring towards them.

"Thank you for your concern, aunt. Yunxi is fine now."

The eldest aunt heard this with a little regret: "Aunt was looking forward to seeing you become the Crown Princess and bring honor to the family. Now that you, Yunxi, are back, when will you hold the wedding with the Crown Prince?"

An Guohou quickly stopped her: "Madam, this is Yunxi's private matter."

Old Madam Du frowned, looked at An Guohou and said coldly: "How can this be a private matter? But it concerns me. "The future of the Marquis's Mansion, as a Marquis, don't you have this little vision?"

Marquis Anguo was scolded by Old Lady Du, and his face was a little ugly for a while, "Mother, this matter is not as simple as you think!"

Old Lady Du snorted coldly, "What's not simple? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the heir to the throne of a country. If this girl can marry him, our ancestral tomb will be filled with smoke!"

An Yunxi's lowered eyes gradually became cold.

Old Lady Du was a person who coveted wealth and face, and was also a complete troublemaker in the Marquis' Mansion.

When her mother's biological mother died of illness, the old Marquis saw that the three children were young and worried that no one would take care of them, so he married her, the younger sister of the first wife, as his second wife.

At first, she tried her best, but after she had her own son, she wanted to give him all the good things in the mansion. However, her son was still a useless piece of mud at the age of 30.

Only a few stepchildren were filial to her because they were taken care of when they were young. However, she took advantage of this and acted arrogantly in the mansion of the Marquis of Anguo. She also brought her niece Liu Xiyue into the mansion and made her the wife of the Marquis of Anguo.

Even when her mother was able to meet General An, she was also the one who played the role of a bridge.

An Yunxi replied calmly, "The wedding will not be rescheduled. Yunxi wants to break off the engagement with the prince."

When this was said, Mrs. Du almost exploded.

"What are you talking about, girl?"

An Guohou immediately stepped forward and stood between An Yunxi and the old lady. "Mother, there are some reasons for this. I will explain it to you when I have time."

But the old lady Du didn't intend to listen to it at all.

"Where is Du Linglan? Ask her to come out to me. How did she discipline her daughter? She is so rebellious!"

When the quarrel broke out outside the hall, the people in the bedroom must have heard it.

Ling Fengxun paused while drinking tea, and his eyes suddenly became gloomy.

Just as he was about to get up, Madam An got off the bed and said to him, "I'm sorry to make you laugh, Your Highness, but this is my Du family's family affair, and I will handle it."

Ling Fengxun heard this and sat back down silently, but he didn't want to drink tea anymore.

Madam An was a little weak, and was supported by her maid to the door of the bedroom. She saw her stepmother in the hall.

Marquis An turned around and winked at her, asking her to go back to bed quickly.

He would take care of it here.

This was also the tacit understanding between the siblings since they were young.

Madam An knew that her stepmother had a mean temper, but she had been spoiled by her father and brothers since she was a child, and she had a good life, so she developed such a gentle character.

"Old lady, you don't have to worry about what my daughter does."

Old lady Du was furious when she heard Madam An talking to her in such a weird tone.

She suddenly pushed Marquis An away, and the unprepared Marquis An took two steps back involuntarily.

Old lady Du took a few steps forward, raised her crutches and was about to swing at Madam An.

"It seems that I didn't discipline my daughter well!"

An Yunxi silently lowered her body slightly and stretched her feet to the path that the old lady must pass.

The next moment, Madam Du, who came over on three legs, was tripped and fell to the ground.
