Chapter 225 Get married soon

Murong Yan was stunned for a moment when he didn't expect his mother to ask this. Then he couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Mom, just stay here for a while and don't worry about me and the eldest lady."

After all, their marriage was only a temporary solution and would soon be scrapped.

His mother frowned, "Why do you still call me Miss Ningning? Who would call their fiancée that?"

Ningning has already said it, so just call her by her name.

Young lady, young lady, it seems like I am her servant.

Murong Yan lowered his eyes, a bitter smile forming at the corners of his mouth.

Because only in this way can I constantly remind myself that she and I are not from the same world, and not have any inappropriate delusions.

"Mom, it's getting late. You should go to bed. I have my own ideas."

The next morning.

Xie Zhuoning yawned as he walked into the dining room. He saw a large table of breakfast on it.

Her almond-shaped eyes were hazy and watery, and she was so surprised that her eyes widened for a moment, "Is Shiso researching new dishes again?"

I took a bite and it tasted pretty good.

She asked Fuling to call Yuqiu and Hongxiu to come over and eat with her.

Soon, the two arrived.

Song Yuqiu kept staring at Hongxiu the whole way, like a curious baby.

I am tired of watching Hongxiu. "Have you seen enough?"

"So fierce!" Song Yuqiu quickly took three steps back. "I thought all the courtesans in brothels were charming and beautiful beauties."

Why is it so different from what she imagined?

Hongxiu, who had only a plain hairpin tied up her hair into a bun and didn't even use any makeup, rolled her eyes and said, "Gorgeous and gentle, that's just to coax patrons to give you money. You don't give me money, so why should I accommodate you?"

Song Yuqiu: “…”

It seems to make sense?

Before she knew it, Hongxiu had already sat next to Xie Zhuoning.

Xie Zhuoning drank a mouthful of porridge and asked her, "Did you remember anything?"

Hongxiu lowered her eyes and shook her head.

She hoped that she could remember something, which would at least give Liang Ge a glimmer of hope in overturning his conviction.

But no matter how she recalled all the details of that day, she could not find any trace of the list.

"Maybe Brother Liang didn't tell me the whereabouts of the list at all."

Xie Zhuoning comforted her, "Don't worry, there are still a few days left, think about it slowly."

Even Song Yuqiu came over and said, "Yeah, eat first. Only when you fill your stomach will you have time to do other things!"

After hearing this, Hongxiu started to eat.

While eating, a figure walked in from outside, "Ningning, how does today's breakfast taste?"

Seeing the person coming, Xie Zhuoning stood up quickly, "Aunt, why are you here? Fuling, please take a seat."

After Murong Yan's mother sat down, she smiled and said, "Before, you said you liked the food I cooked, so I wanted to give you some. But you go out early and come back late, so I never found a chance."

Xie Zhuoning came to his senses and wondered why the taste had changed so much today. He thought that Shiso was researching a new dish.

She smiled and praised, "Thank you, auntie, it's delicious."

Murong Yan's mother immediately laughed and said, "If you like it, eat more. We are all family, so you don't have to be so polite to me."

After all, she is the elder, how could she just stand there and watch them eat?

Xie Zhuoning asked Fuling to add another set of bowls and chopsticks, "Aunt, come eat with us."

As they were talking, Song Yuqiu, who was sitting opposite, kicked Hongxiu and said, "Hey, Oiran, let me taste the one in front of you."

It looks delicious.

Hongxiu opened her mouth and said, "Five taels of silver."

Song Yuqiu is unique. Since she followed Xie Zhuoning, her wealth has skyrocketed and she is now a wealthy woman.

Five taels of silver were not worth much to her, so she just picked up a piece of silver and threw it over.

Hong Xiu's expression changed immediately, and even her eyes were as soft as water. "Miss, you are so generous~ Do you need me to feed you~"

Song Yuqiu was mesmerized by that look and instantly felt that the five taels of silver were worth it!

Murong Yan's mother, who was watching this scene from the side, couldn't help but frown, with a look of disapproval on her face, "This, this, this... how can this be allowed?"

Xie Zhuoning chuckled and explained, "They were just joking."

Hearing this, Murong Yan's mother's brows did not relax, "But I heard her being called the Oiran, and she looked so seductive, could she really be a brothel girl?"

Hong Xiu rolled her eyes. "What's wrong with a brothel girl? Did she eat your food?"

Murong Yan's mother was so angry that her chest heaved.

Ever since she moved into the Zhenyang Marquis' Mansion, all the servants and maids, from top to bottom, have been polite and respectful to her whenever they see her.

But a prostitute is actually acting so arrogantly here!

"Ning Ning, don't blame me for meddling in other people's business. You should know your limits when it comes to some things. If you, a young girl, were to hang out with a prostitute, what would people think of you?"

"Hey, who are you? Even the Queen Mother is not as lenient as you." Hongxiu raised her eyebrows and didn't even look at anyone.

Anyway, once Liang Ge died, she didn't even want to live anymore. Why would a barefoot person be afraid of those who wear shoes?

Murong Yan's mother immediately covered her chest with her hands, and was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys all began to hurt, and she cried out, "Ouch, ouch."

"Okay, stop talking!" Xie Zhuoning scolded Hongxiu.

She rolled her eyes at Murong Yan's mother, then stood up and left.

Xie Zhuoning was afraid that something might happen to the old man, so he asked Song Yuqiu to come over and take a look.

After all, she had been ill before, and even her eyesight was not very good. If something happened, it would be difficult to explain to Murong Yan.

Song Yuqiu felt his pulse and said, "It's fine. He's healthy. He won't die."

Those who are familiar with her know that this is how she speaks.

But when it fell into the ears of Murong Yan's mother, it seemed to have another meaning——

She actually cursed herself to death?

Reaching out to hold Xie Zhuoning's hand, the old lady burst into tears, "Ningning, look at these messed up people. Not only do they bully an old woman, but they don't even take you seriously at all."

"It's not easy for a weak woman like you to support such a big family. You have to worry about everything, big or small, both inside and outside. Besides, you are not young anymore. You should get married earlier and let Yan'er help you manage the family!"

She has been extremely anxious these days.

While enjoying the wealth of the Marquis's mansion, he always felt uneasy.

It was not until she heard the servants talking about how the eldest daughter had never come to see the new aunt that she suddenly realized the source of her uneasiness.

The two of them don't look like an engaged couple at all.

If she was worried about rumors, why would she invite them to live in her house?

If not, why is he so cold to Yan'er?

The uneasiness in her heart reached its peak. She thought about it for several days and felt that it would be appropriate for them to get married.

Xie Zhuoning listened to this, and his eyes dimmed little by little.

"Did Murong ask you to say this?"
