Aunt Liu felt a little uneasy under the master's gaze, and mustered up her courage to cry out her innocence: "Mother, Master, although Yingxue always picks on Youxue, she has been confined to her quarters these days, and it is your people who are guarding her. Why can't she come out?"
Qian Sheng thought that what Liu Shi said was true. Her mother was afraid that Liu Shi would show favoritism, so she deliberately sent someone over to keep an eye on things that day. If it weren't for today's special circumstances, Ying Xue would still be in that little house over there.
The old lady nodded in agreement, and only then did Madam Su stop asking questions and shut her mouth, standing there without saying anything more.
"Sheng'er, send someone to investigate this matter again. If there's nothing else, everyone can leave. Mother is tired." The old lady waved her hand wearily.
It's hard for anyone to feel bad about something like this happening on such a joyous day. Originally, I was thinking that if Mu Xue really wanted to marry into the family, it would be a good thing to keep You Xue at home. But now it seems that I was overthinking it.
"Yes!" Qian Sheng accepted the order, but he had no idea how to investigate.
It's impossible to say that there are no enemies in officialdom. Many people are kind on the surface, but they are waiting for him to make a fool of himself behind his back. Fortunately, Yun and that girl are quite sensible. If they had rushed directly into the wedding procession just now, who knows what would have happened.
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, he walked out the door thoughtfully, then suddenly stopped and turned back to look at Madam Liu, saying sternly, "You've already turned Yingxue into a shrew. If Muxue causes any more trouble, you'd better get back to the Liu family!"
"Yes, sir!" Aunt Liu obediently replied, not daring to say anything more.
She glanced furtively at Su Shi as she passed by, remembering what the old man had said. Just as she was about to raise her hand to stop him, she was stopped by Granny Zhang.
After Madam Su had walked away, Aunt Liu asked, puzzled, "Why didn't you let me go?"
“Master, look at Su’s attitude just now. Even if you kneel down and beg her, she might not agree. If you want to do that, you might as well go and beg the master. Even if the master is angry with you, he will consider his future, won’t he?” Granny Zhang had thought things through very well.
Um!
Aunt Liu agreed, and recently she had also noticed that the master seemed to find fault with her. If she didn't regain her standing in his eyes, her future would be even more difficult. So, she deliberately went to the master's place to cry and complain about Mu Xue's situation.
...
Qian Youxue slept a long, uncomfortable sleep, and when she woke up, she found herself lying in bed. The room was filled with red, and a pair of large red candles were placed not far away, looking particularly glaring.
this……
Wasn't she clearly tied up by Qian Yingxue and thrown into the closet? How did she end up here?
She wasn't stupid; she could tell at a glance that this was the bridal chamber. But she hadn't even had a wedding ceremony, so how did she end up being led into the bridal chamber?
She tried to clear her foggy mind, but looking at the red-clad woman, she couldn't remember what had happened.
Creak!
The door opened, and Mei'er walked in carrying some food, her expression still not very happy. Seeing her mistress awake, she immediately put on a smiling face: "Miss, are you hungry? Why don't you eat something?"
Qian Youxue was puzzled. Wasn't the groom supposed to lift the red veil on their wedding night?
Why did they let Mei'er in to bring food?
Seeing her mistress's bewildered expression, Mei'er assumed it was because the prince hadn't appeared and was heartbroken. After putting down her things, she stepped forward to comfort her: "Miss, the prince... the prince is not well, so... so he didn't come out to perform the wedding ceremony with you."
