At this time, the Cheng family of Luyang also received a letter and learned that Cheng Yilin and Er Ya had been betrothed.
Cheng's father felt that Er Ya's status was a bit too low, but at least she now had the title of a village lady, so it wasn't shameful if word got out.
Cheng Yilin's stepmother, Madam Kang, didn't think so at all. Although she was in Luyang, she had heard a great deal about Yang Cui.
Although she wasn't his biological daughter, Er Ya was no different from one. Cheng Yilin married Er Ya, which meant he had Cen Xiao and Yang Cui as his backers.
Cheng Yilin will definitely surpass his son in the future.
Kang was furious.
Their marriage was arranged by the emperor, and unless something unexpected happens to Er Ya, the marriage is a done deal.
With Cheng Yilin engaged, the Cheng family naturally had to make a trip to Kyoto.
...
General's Mansion.
"Madam, Miss Lin has sent another letter to the eldest and second young ladies." Xi Hongmei handed the letter to Yang Cui.
This was already the fourth letter Lin Huihui had sent to the mansion.
The first two letters were increasingly pleasant to read, but now, well, he's getting more and more impatient.
Although Yang Cui was worried that Er Ya and San Ya would follow the same path as in the original story, she would not overprotect them. Although Yang Cui intercepted the letter, she did not hide it from them. She had told them that Lin Huihui was wicked and that they should be wary of her.
It was Er Ya and San Ya who brought up the idea of not replying to any letters.
We're not on the same wavelength to begin with, there's no need for us to force ourselves to be together.
However, they did not expect that Lin Huihui would continue to send letters.
Lin Huihui received no response and was so angry she almost exploded.
"Since that's the case, don't blame me!" Lin Huihui's eyes flashed with a sinister light.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Huihui went to Princess Xilan's residence, where she met Anning, who was suffering terribly.
"What are you doing here? To laugh at me? Get lost!" An Ning didn't give Lin Huihui a friendly look either.
"I'm not here to laugh at you, I'm here to discuss cooperation."
"cooperate?"
"Don't you hate Yang Sisi? If it weren't for her, you would still be the Lady of Anning Township, and you wouldn't be locked up at home at all."
An Ning's eyes flashed with hatred as she gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I hate her, but isn't she your own sister? You want to get rid of her?"
"I can help you deal with her, but you'll have to figure out a way to get her to come out."
Why did you do that?
Lin Huihui remained silent.
After a moment, An Ning laughed and said, "You're jealous of her, huh? Well, that's true. You were born of the same parents, but you have to depend on others, while she became a village lady and has a fiancé like Cheng Yilin, while you can only be someone else's second wife."
Lin Huihui's face turned even uglier when this was mentioned.
"Looks like you must have tried to ask her out, but she didn't give you the time of day, so you couldn't get her to agree," An Ning said with a hint of schadenfreude.
"Do you want to get revenge on her or not?" she asked coldly.
"Of course! I'll find a way to arrange it."
An Ning, being a native of Kyoto, knew more influential people than Lin Huihui, making it much easier for her to arrange a meeting with Er Ya.
An Ning had learned her lesson this time. She knew that everyone in the capital knew about how she had used Xie Tong to arrange a meeting with Er Ya and San Ya. If she wanted to meet Er Ya again, she definitely couldn't say that she wanted to see her.
...
Time flew by and it was already the winter month.
Er Ya and San Ya received an invitation from Xie Tong to go to the plum garden, where the plum blossoms were in bloom. Xie Tong invited them to admire the plum blossoms, and she and Chen Shiqi also prepared a surprise for them.
Er Ya and San Ya had been studying with their teacher at home for a month without taking a break, and they were eager to go out and play.
It just so happened that the day after tomorrow was a day off, so he sent the messenger back to tell Xie Tong that he would definitely come.
Before we knew it, the appointed day arrived.
Because the plum garden is quite far away, on the outskirts of Kyoto, Er Ya and San Ya got dressed and went out early.
Meiyuan, as the name suggests, is a plum garden.
This place is filled with various kinds of plum blossoms, and the scenery is pleasant. When the plum blossoms are in full bloom, many people come here to visit.
"Sisi, Qinqin, where are you going?" They ran into Chen Shiqi on the way.
"Sister Chen, Tongtong invited us to the plum garden, and she said she's preparing a surprise," Sanya said with a smile.
Chen Shiqi found it a bit strange: "Her leg recovered so quickly?"
"What happened to her leg?" Er Ya asked.
"Don't you all know? She sprained her ankle the day before yesterday, and it swelled up to the size of a steamed bun. She can't even walk."
Upon hearing this, Er Ya was startled, and her face immediately turned ugly.
Xie Tong suffered such a serious injury the day before yesterday, and yet the very next day she sent someone to invite me to come here today. Is that even possible? Could she have imagined that her leg would be able to walk again today?
Er Ya had a bad feeling.
"Sisi, what's wrong?"
Er Ya lowered her voice and said, "Sister Chen, I need your help with something..."
