Chapter 205 The Wu Sisters
Today, Su Nanyi told everyone to pack up and prepare to return to Beijing.

After several days of observation, the water brought from Dongzhou gradually became clear. The water can not only be used to irrigate crops, but also for drinking by humans and animals.

Beizhou’s water problem was finally solved, and Ling Xiao finally felt relieved and prepared to leave.

Early this morning, he explained things to Su Nanyi and then went to find the Governor of Beizhou. Now he is explaining things to the Governor of Beizhou in the yamen.

There are still many things to do, but he is no longer needed.

At this time, in the backyard of the yamen, two women were whispering.

The older one was the wife of the Governor of Beizhou, Yuan, and the younger woman was her sister, Little Yuan.

Two years ago, little Yuanshi's husband died of illness. Yuanshi felt sorry for little Yuanshi who lost her husband at such a young age and did not leave her any children, so she brought her to Zhou Mansion and planned to find a suitable husband for her.

But Xiao Yuan tried and chose but couldn't find the right one.

When Ling Xiao and his companions came to the yamen, Xiao Yuan fell in love with Ling Xiao at first sight and was amazed that there was such a heavenly man in the world. Ling Xiao just broke into her heart just like that.

She lost her appetite every day, but she really couldn't find a chance to get close to Ling Xiao.

There were too many people around Ling Xiao, and they were ruthlessly driven away before they could get close.

Now Ling Xiao and the others are leaving, and her goal has not been achieved. She is anxious, so she comes to Yuan for help.

"Sister, you must help me. I want to marry that man."

Little Yuan hugged Yuan's arm and acted coquettishly like she did when she was a child. As long as she did this, Yuan would agree to her unconditionally.

Yuan sighed. This younger sister was the daughter of their parents in their old age. They had loved her since she was young, and the relationship between the sisters was very good.

Yuan treated her like her own daughter, but her sister had a bad fate. Her husband fell ill and died only two years after they got married.

If they hadn't died, they would have been a loving couple.

Now that her sister has fallen in love with a married man, Yuan is in a dilemma. She doesn't know Ling Xiao's specific identity, but the governor of Beizhou has told her that the man's identity is not simple and he was sent by the higher-ups, so she was told not to show off in front of him.

If you provoke him, you will suffer the consequences.

But her sister's personality is hard to describe. She likes handsome men and will not give up until she gets them.

She wanted to refuse Xiao Yuanshi, but she couldn't resist her sister's pleading. She poked Xiao Yuanshi's forehead lovingly and said softly, "Your brother-in-law told us not to provoke him. If we fail, we will be in big trouble."

"No, sister, I want to marry that man. Sister, think of a way. Brother-in-law said that there is a noble man from the capital. If sister marries him, she will definitely go back to the capital with him after the matter is settled. When sister gets better in the future, she will definitely help brother-in-law."

Little Yuan pouted, shook Yuan's arm, and lobbied hard.

Yuan was a little tempted by what she said. The Governor of Beizhou has been here for more than ten years and there has been no intention of transferring. Moreover, there is no money to be made here and the place is extremely poor.

Her sons and daughters couldn't marry princes and nobles, but if they went to the capital, maybe they could get their wish.

But she was still very worried in her heart. After all, the Governor of Beizhou had warned her again and again, forcing her to be cautious.

If it were someone else, they would just capture the person. They are all in Beizhou's territory anyway. No matter what happens, others can't do anything to them. They can only swallow this loss and have to marry her sister.

But she came from the capital and had a strong backing. If she was a royal relative who held the power of life and death and killed her sister in a rage, it would be a loss.

What should she do then? She couldn't explain to her parents. After thinking it over, Yuan refused politely: "Sister, you know that if your sister has a promising future, she will definitely not forget you, but we really don't dare to touch her head in this matter.

How about this, isn't the nobleman's wife here? I heard they are leaving, so let's go and take a look."

Little Yuan's eyes lit up, and she nodded quickly, "Okay, sister, let's go take a look now."

So the two sisters immediately came to the courtyard where Su Nanyi lived and saw the servants in the courtyard packing up their things. They hurried into the courtyard and saw Tuantuan, so they asked her, "Miss, are you leaving now?"

"Hi ma'am, yes, we are going back."

Tuan Tuan recognized that this was the wife of the Governor of Beizhou, and he bent down and answered politely.

"Oh, and where's your wife?"

"Madam, do you have something to talk to our madam about?" Tuantuan asked.

Yuan nodded: "Yes, you are leaving, at least I will come to see your wife off."

Tuantuan thought for a moment and said, "Madam, please wait a moment. I will go and inform our Madam."

Wherever Yuan went in Beizhou, others would wait for her, inform her, and get her permission before seeing her.

Now she was in the yamen where she lived, and was asked to wait for others. She felt unhappy at first, but she still nodded in agreement on the surface.

After all, this was a nobleman from the capital, and she didn't dare to get angry before knowing the details.

So Tuan Tuan went into the house and reported to Su Nanyi.

Su Nanyi was stunned for a moment, then said, "Then please invite the governor's wife to the living room. I'll be there in a moment."

She didn't think much about it. It was nothing wrong to come and take a look at someone else's house.

"Yes, ma'am."

Tuantuan went out and brought the Yuan sisters to the living room, served them tea, and then waited on them.

Su Nanyi soon came with Mo Lian. She smiled and greeted the two of them: "Hello, ladies."

"Ah, Mrs. Huang, please take a seat."

Yuan immediately stood up, spoke with a smile, and pulled Su Nanyi to sit next to her, acting like the hostess.

At the same time, he asked, "Mrs. Huang, are you leaving now?"

Su Nanyi nodded: "Yes, we have finished our work here, and we are going to go home. I am sorry to have disturbed you for so long."

At this moment, Yuan was also looking at Su Nanyi seriously. This woman was so beautiful. Compared with her, little Yuan was far superior. It would be difficult for her sister to marry Mr. Huang.

If she married, she would just become someone else's mistress, so Yuan Shi suddenly didn't want Xiao Yuan Shi to get married anymore.

She smiled and said, "What's the big deal? You are from the capital and you are working for the emperor. You can stay as long as you want. But, you haven't been here for long. I haven't even entertained Mr. Huang and his wife properly. You are going back to the capital now. It's too late to do my best to be a good host."

While Yuan was talking, Su Nanyi was wondering in her heart, what was the meaning of these two people coming to see her, and what did they mean by saying these words?
