Chapter 11

Then he said to his angry mother and brother, "He is deeply in love with the girl he brought back from Bianzhou. I don't want to get involved in their relationship, and I don't want to call his many women sisters in the future."

"I didn't realize that the Lu family's heirs were under so much pressure before. This time he woke me up and told me that I should retreat when I knew it was difficult."

Thinking of the scene in the dream where Liu Manrou called him sister and husband all the time, and from time to time she would hold her waist to hint at the hard work at night, Xie Wan Ning couldn't help but tears up, "I am very narrow-minded. I only want to marry a loyal man like my father, and I don't want to be a tolerant and generous marquis."

Xie Wen, who was walking in, happened to hear these words. He paused, looked up at his wife and daughter, and asked, "What's wrong with Wanwan? Is the Lu family kid being naughty again?"

Zheng held her daughter's hand and patted it gently, while she told her husband what she had just heard, angrily saying, "How can you show him off? It won't affect our Wanwan's position as the legal wife in any way. It's as if we are marrying up to their level."

Are you kidding? They are all hereditary marquises. Whoever their eldest daughter marries will be the legal wife. It's just that their girl is so stubborn, otherwise, with her character and appearance, she could marry into a royal family or a duke's family.

It would even be possible for her to marry a prince as his principal wife.

Xie Wen was a gentle man with a broad mind, but his expression changed at this moment. He slammed the table and stood up: "What a Lu Ziyan, do you really think you can kill our girl?"

Not to mention that he had said when he proposed marriage that day that Xie Wan Ning was enough. Even if he didn't say it, he shouldn't have such an attitude towards his fiancée if he really wanted to take a concubine.

Whose family can take a concubine without the mistress's consent?

He used a tone of almsgiving, saying that it would not affect their daughter's status as the main wife. Does he think that there is no one left in the Xie family?
No wonder the adorable young girl, who had placed all her heart on him, was heartbroken and said she refused to get married.

Seeing this, Xie Yanyu, who had been silent the whole time, said, "I have long known that Lu Ziyan is not a good man. Since Wanwan has also seen his true face, I will go to the Lu family with my father tomorrow to cancel their marriage."

As soon as the words fell, the room fell silent.

"The wedding date is approaching. It's a serious matter to talk about canceling the engagement now. It's not a good decision to make rashly." Zheng looked at her daughter and said hesitantly, "Wanwan, have you really thought it through? Are you not acting on impulse?"

The most feared thing is that "I don't want to get married" is what a girl says in anger when she hears that her fiancé has a woman.

If you really wait until you come to cancel the engagement and then regret it, you will be slapping yourself in the face.

Although Wanwan in their family was not a reckless person, just in case, neither Zheng nor Xie Wen dared to agree readily.

After all, the whole family had witnessed their daughter's infatuation with Lu Ziyan before.

After thinking for a while, Xie Wen said, "Let's not rush this matter. Wanwan, you should think about it first, and let your father investigate a little to see what the situation is with the woman he brought back from Bianzhou."

Xie Wan Ning did not expect her parents to agree without hesitation.

Hearing this, he was not disappointed, but said seriously: "I have thought about it very clearly. Brother is right. Lu Ziyan is not a good man. If my parents don't believe it, they can wait for a few days. No matter how long it takes, my answer is still this."

According to the situation in the dream, in a few days, the news that Lu Ziyan has a mistress should spread.

Considering Lu Ziyan's character, he definitely didn't take the initiative to spread the news.

So, it is clear who spread the message.

Liu Manrou has never been a contented person. She was born a maid and eventually became the second wife of Wuyuan Marquis's Mansion. In addition to Lu Ziyan's favor, her ambition was more important.

Being a second wife is not enough to satisfy her. What she wants is to be Lu Ziyan's legal wife and the wife of the Marquis of Wuyuan.

After dinner, the brother and sister came out from their parents' yard.

Xie Yanyu tilted his head to look at his younger sister and comforted her, "Don't worry, Wanwan. As long as you are determined not to get married, the Lu family's sedan chair will not be able to take you away."

"I'm not worried." Xie Wan Ning's nose was sore with emotion. She held his sleeve and acted like a spoiled child: "Brother, I don't want to get married in the future. I want to stay at home as an old maid. You won't dislike me, right?"

Xie Yanyu was silent for a moment, thinking about how little she ate for dinner, he said softly: "Don't be afraid, even if the engagement is cancelled, you can still get married." "..." Xie Wan Ning's already wet eyelashes suddenly disappeared, and she quickly let go of his sleeves: "I'm going back, take care, brother."

On the way back to the hospital, I kept complaining in my heart: No wonder he still has no wife at his age. She, the younger sister in the dream, has been married for two years, but the older brother has still not found a marriage. What a waste of that handsome face!

That's right, which girl would like such an ignorant and foolish guy.

It’s useless even if you are born handsome!
…………

The sky was getting dark and the lights in Jianxia Courtyard had already been lit.

Xie Wan Ning took off her hairpin, gathered her hair to her chest, and combed it gently with a jade comb. Her eyes fell on Er Xia who was busy and tiptoeing.

...Since the dream is true, then Erxia climbing into Lu Ziyan’s bed must also be true.

This is the maid who has served her since she was a child. In name, they are master and servant, but in reality, their relationship is just like that of sisters.

Er Qing protected her until her death, and Er Xia...

In the dream, she had been married into the Wuyuan Marquis Mansion for less than half a year. Liu Manrou had just given birth to her eldest son. During the confinement period, Erxia found an opportunity, offered herself to Lu Ziyan, and got into his bed.

But she chose to use her yard.

In the warm room of Shaoguang Courtyard, during the lunch break, Erxia, who was supposed to bring her hot milk, went into the room with Lu Ziyan.

When she waited for no one and came out to look for him, she heard some noise coming from inside.

At the time she thought it was just a dream, but now thinking about it it is truly heart-wrenching. She stood at the door in the biting cold wind and listened for a long time until it became quiet inside. Then she pushed the door open with trembling hands and walked in.

Compared to Lu Ziyan, she cared more about Erxia's betrayal at that time.

At that time, she even asked Erxia, whose clothes were disheveled and her face was flushed, whether she was forced by Lu Ziyan.

Even though, during the time she stood at the door, she did not hear the woman's cry for help.

This was indeed the case. Facing her question, Erxia blushed, looked at her with satisfaction and guilt, and said nothing.

The blow this incident dealt to Xie Wan Ning was second only to Er Qing’s death.

Why did she become so depressed and die of grief? Erxia’s betrayal played a big role in that.

Thoughts returned, Xie Wan Ning looked at Er Xia, who acted impeccably and always put herself first, and seemed to be thinking about something.

She never thought that her personal maid actually liked her fiancé.

The Xie family had no habit of arranging concubines for their daughters. She had already planned for the future of Erqing and Erxia and had discussed it with them.

As long as she met her loved one or wanted to get married, she would return the indenture and prepare a dowry for each of them.

After marriage, if they still want to come back and serve her, they can come back at any time.

Ke Erxia was thinking about her husband and took action.

Lu Ziyan was not a picky eater and enjoyed the food immediately.

Thinking about it now, it’s so disgusting that I almost want to vomit out the overnight meal.

 Today I went to Qingyun. I came in from the Qingyun page. If you see this, you can leave your footprints~~~
