Chapter 325 Ning An Ru Meng: You Yue is no longer stupid 29
Reading Settings
While the two sisters were chatting about business, in the front yard, when the Earl of Qingyuan heard the reason why Madam You had asked him to come back, he almost dropped his teacup, and the scalding tea spilled out, scalding him.
"Young Master Yan has come to our house to propose marriage. You're not kidding me, are you?" He was so shocked that he forgot to drink his tea and threw it on the table. He stared intently at Madam You, who was not particularly beautiful.
A proper matriarch, and already quite old, is certainly not as pleasing to the eye as the young girls in the brothel.
Over the years, Madam You had been quite infuriated by such subtle insults and critical glances, but at this moment, she suddenly felt extremely relieved and snorted coldly, "Fooling around? This isn't something that can be done by just talking nonsense!"
Today, Prince Yan and Yue'er came together and talked with me in the flower hall for a long time. Granny Lai listened to the whole thing.
If you don't believe me, you can ask Granny Lai!
Before the Earl of Qingyuan could ask, Granny Lai immediately said, "My lord, it's true, the young master Yan is deeply in love with our second young lady."
...
After a moment of stunned silence, the Earl of Qingyuan suddenly burst into laughter: "Good, good, good! This is truly a wonderful thing that has fallen from the sky. Of course, I am overjoyed to be able to form a marriage alliance with the Yan family."
"Send someone immediately—no, I'll go myself; it's been a while since I've had a drink with Marquis Yan."
Madam You secretly rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, "Have you even drunk it?"
Marquis Yan, a dignified general, would he remember someone like you who even managed to mess up Meng Yin's affairs?
But Madam You was in a good mood today and didn't bother arguing, so she let him be.
My daughter is about to marry into the Yan family and become the wife of the heir apparent. Now she has something to look forward to.
Thinking of this, she changed her usual timidity and made a strong demand to the Marquis of Qingyuan, "Since Yue'er is marrying into the Marquis's family, her social status is so much higher than ours. You must prepare more dowry so that Yue'er won't be looked down upon in her husband's family."
She was thinking to herself that she would secretly put the five thousand taels her daughter had just given her into her dowry.
Her daughter felt sorry for her, so she couldn't let her daughter suffer.
That night, although the Earl of Qingyuan did not have a drink with Yan Mu because Yan Mu's injuries had not yet healed, they had almost finished discussing matters concerning their children.
Upon learning this, Yan Ling rode her horse to the back gate of the You residence early the next morning.
Just as he climbed the wall of the Jiang residence, he also climbed the wall of the You residence.
On the day that Chu Yuan was to enter the palace to continue accompanying the princess in her studies and daily life, he arrived before dawn and sat on the tree, watching Chu Yuan from her deep sleep until she woke up, got ready, and hurriedly ate breakfast, as if he were watching an interesting program, his eyes filled with a deep sense of happiness.
Just as Chu Yuan was about to leave and get into the carriage, she suddenly jumped down and stopped her, "A-Yue!"
Chu Yuan and the maidservant were both startled. "Oh my god, that was terrifying!"
Yan Ling chuckled as she held her hand, "You know, your father and my father already discussed our marriage last night, which will take place three months after my coming-of-age ceremony."
I've always looked forward to my coming-of-age ceremony, the sooner the better. Now there are only four days left, but it still feels like four days is a long time.
Ah Yue, what should I do? I feel like I can't wait any longer!
"Because after the four-day coming-of-age ceremony, there are still three months to wait. When will I be able to hold you in my arms openly and legitimately?"
Chu Yuan had a sharp eye and noticed early in the morning that Yan Ling was dressed smartly, so she must be off to do something.
Remembering Xie Wei's earlier request for him to intercept Xue Dingfei, he understood and gave Qingye a wink.
The little maid immediately stood outside the courtyard, obediently keeping watch for the two of them.
Chu Yuan pulled Yan Ling closer to the corridor to prevent the wind and snow from blowing on him. In fact, because he had arrived early, his clothes, shoes, and socks were already quite wet. Fortunately, the evergreen tree canopy blocked the snow, otherwise he would have been even more soaked.
Chu Yuan took out a handkerchief and started patting herself, but Yan Ling grabbed it tightly and wouldn't let go.
Chu Yuan found it amusing. "We're only separated for a few days. I'm going to the palace, and you're going to retrieve Lord Yan's letter. Why are you acting like we're about to be separated by life and death?"
Before she could finish speaking, her lips were sealed by a pair of cold lips.
Yan Ling kissed her fiercely, her teeth clenched as she pressed her lips against hers, "This is your punishment, to make you say things that curse yourself and curse us!"
The boy, who had never believed in such things, suddenly became incredibly serious.
Chu Yuan couldn't help but pull her hand away and give him a big hug: "Yan Ling, you're so good."
No need to wait three months, no need to wait even a few days, I'll let you hold me as much as you want right now..."
After saying that, the two pressed close together, sharing each other's body heat.
But such happy times always fly by. Chu Yuan had to enter the palace before Chenshi (7-9 AM), and Xue Dingfei couldn't be delayed either, so the two had to part ways reluctantly.
At the last moment, Yan Ling grabbed Chu Yuan's hand and kissed it. "A Yue, take good care of yourself in the palace. I'll come to the palace to see you after I've finished my business."
Chu Yuan smiled, exuding charm: "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Unexpectedly, before Yan Ling could arrive, Xue Shu lost her patience for the second time.
Using Consort Qin's pregnancy as a pretext, they wanted to expel her and Jiang Xuening from the palace to prevent them from blocking the Xue family's wealth and status.
As Consort Qin rolled on the ground, clutching her belly which was less than three months pregnant, Chu Yuan kicked Xue Shu hard in the back of the knee, catching her off guard and causing her to pounce on Consort Qin, almost pressing her directly onto Consort Qin's stomach.
"Oh my, Miss Xue, your method of saving people is quite unique."
Chu Yuan mimicked her sarcastic tone, "Just now you said that Xue Ning and I didn't take good care of Consort Qin. Isn't what you're doing more like making things worse?"
Someone, summon the imperial physician!
Before the imperial physician arrives, Consort Qin's condition is still unstable and she absolutely cannot be moved. Otherwise, if anything happens, all of us who came to accompany Zhemei will be in deep trouble!
