Chapter 21 A Bolt from the Blue



Fu Ling looked at the pattern carefully again and again, but did not find any difference. He thought that this little maid was just talking nonsense to show off, and a little displeasure appeared in his eyes.

The maid observed her expression and quickly explained, "Madam, please look carefully at this pattern against the sunlight."

Although Fu Ling was confused, he still did as he was told: he saw that the pattern was facing the direction of the light, and indeed, it showed some insignificant differences when reflecting the light.

She was a little surprised. She didn't expect that the details were so difficult to notice that required careful comparison under the sunlight to see the different details. However, the little maid could tell that the silk thread was embroidered with two different colors with just one glance.

"How did you find out?"

The maid lowered her eyebrows and said, "I have been more sensitive to colors since I was young. I can easily distinguish the differences in colors that others cannot. Even if they are two petals of the same flower, I can tell the darker and lighter ones."

After saying this, she looked at the kingfisher pattern again and said, "Actually, this isn't necessarily an oversight on the part of the embroiderer. I think the two silk threads are simply the same color dyed in different batches, so there are slight differences. It doesn't seem like a big deal on a normal day, but it would be better if we could use exactly the same silk thread."

She smiled and said, "Madam, if you don't mind my crudeness, could you please allow me to give it a try?"

Listening to the maid's words, Fu Ling was a little surprised: "You can also do embroidery? What's your name? Where did you work before?"

"In reply to Madam, I, your servant Yuzhi, am currently working in the kitchen."

"Yuzhi?" Fu Ling called out, "If you have such abilities, why are you doing rough work in the kitchen?"

At this point, Yuzhi's face darkened. "I was originally an embroiderer hired by the mansion. But because I delayed Rong's work while embroidering the eldest daughter's wedding dress, Rong was displeased and sent me to chop firewood in the kitchen."

When he heard the name of Aunt Rong, Fu Ling became even more angry and even felt a little pity for Yuzhi.

Looking at her rough hands, she revealed her compassionate face again: "Good child, stay in Anxianju from now on."

A flash of surprise crossed Yuzhi's face, and she kowtowed quickly: "Yuzhi thanks Madam for your kindness!"

As the wedding day approaches, Xue Zhiyi finally gets the exact news about Fu Rongxin.

Fu Rongxin will come to watch the ceremony with the Fu family.

Xue Zhiyi's hands were clenched so tightly that they were shaking.

Her enemy from her previous life is finally about to show up, and she can't wait to send Fu Rongxin to hell!

There are only seven days left until the wedding.

The wedding dress was delivered on this day, and Xue Hanshu was finally able to get out of bed and walk.

Youlan helped her change into her wedding dress, and Aunt Chun watched with tears in her eyes.

"My Shu'er has finally grown up. In seven days, Shu'er will definitely be the most beautiful bride!"

Looking at myself in the mirror, I still have that well-behaved appearance, gentle and soft, with a round face and a bit of bookish air. With this bright red wedding dress, I actually look a bit noble in a rare way.

Although the wedding dress did not have too many gorgeous decorations due to the tight schedule, it was already excellent compared to the materials used in her daily clothes.

No matter what, she was finally going to get married. Xue Zhiyi had once told her about the immense wealth of the Yongping Marquis's Mansion, how tempting it was!

Thinking of this, Xue Hanshu held her hands and simulated the steps she would take on the wedding day in front of the mirror.

She held her head high, and the smile on her lips made her look like a lilac flower that had bloomed to its fullest, almost rotting.

But... the phoenix crown and hairpin on her head suddenly swayed exaggeratedly with her steps.

Xue Hanshu was stunned.

Not only her, Aunt Chun was also stunned...

Her face turned pale, and a bloody red flashed in her eyes. In disbelief, she looked down at her feet...

She smiled hopefully: Maybe it's just because she hasn't gotten out of bed for too long?

Yes, that’s it…that’s why…she felt her steps were weak and difficult to control!

I tried to walk a few more steps, and this time, my steps were even more shaky...

As she walked, her shoulders rose and fell and swayed strangely, making the gorgeous wedding dress look extremely awkward and even a little funny on her.

"Shu'er..."

Aunt Chun stood up and looked at her blankly.

Xue Hanshu's eyes were red, and tears could not stop flowing...

"How is it possible?! How could it be! No! No... I don't believe it... I don't believe it..."

She collapsed to the ground, then got up again and again, trying to walk forward again and again...

But every time, every step she took indicated one thing, an extremely cruel thing—

She is lame.

Repeated injuries to her lower back left her with a limp.

She became a cripple...

"ah--"

She collapsed and screamed, holding her head.

"Impossible... Impossible! Why? Why is this happening?! Someone is trying to harm me... Who on earth is trying to harm me? Is it Fei Luxuan? Is it Aunt Rong... Is it Xue Panrou!"

She finally married the person she wanted to marry!

She has no shame, no integrity, and no innocence!

This is the only time in my life I'll take a gamble, but in the end...

Is there anything more ironic than this?!

"Shu'er, don't be afraid! Mom will go find a doctor!"

Aunt Chun said this and was about to walk towards the door.

"return!"

Xue Hanshu roared heartbreakingly: "Do you want this to be known to everyone! Do you want everyone to know that I, Xue Hanshu, have a lame leg and have become a complete cripple?!"
