Marrying a rich man after rebirth: The daily life of a legitimate daughter

Li Wanrong didn't care about the old lady's status, nor did she care that if she offended the old lady, she would be troubled. She cursed: "You old man, are you trying to drive me crazy? You have no right to lock me up in the Prince's Mansion."

These disrespectful words made the people in the hall change their expressions. They stared at the old lady, fearing that she would be angry.

The old lady didn't care at all. In her eyes, Li Wanrong was like a beast with its claws plucked out. No matter how she struggled, it was useless.

The nanny yelled to the servants outside the door, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry and drag Aunt Li back to the yard."

The servants walked into the hall and dragged Li Wanrong out. They were afraid that something might happen to the baby in Li Wanrong's belly, so they looked aggressive but their attacks were very gentle.

Chun Xia looked at Li Wanrong's embarrassment and couldn't help sighing: "Auntie Li is so bold. Not only did she ignore the old lady's dissuasion and insisted on keeping the baby in her belly, she also dared to talk back to the old lady. I think she doesn't want to stay in the Prince's Mansion anymore."

"With the support of the prince, no matter how much trouble Aunt Li makes, the old lady will not drive her out of the house." He Shulan, who had been watching the show for a long time, said leisurely: "Fortunately, the old lady came forward for these matters, so I don't have to be a sinner in front of the prince."

The matter was resolved, and He Shulan helped the old lady back to the yard.

.......

The prince had rested enough, washed up, and planned to continue looking for Li Wanrong. However, he was told by his servants that Li Wanrong had returned home. He was so happy that he hurried to Li Wanrong's yard.

Li Wanrong looked at the prince in front of her in disbelief: "Weren't you captured by bandits?"

"I wasn't captured by the bandits. My carriage fell off a cliff, and I was sick, so it took me a while to get back to the Prince's Mansion." The Prince patiently explained, "But why did you sneak out?"

Li Wanrong thought for a long time and didn't know what excuse to make. When she heard that the prince was captured by bandits, she thought that the prince was in danger, so she fled from the prince's mansion to save her life. She didn't expect that the prince would come back safely. In order to keep the prince's heart, she could only lie: "I was worried when I heard that you were in trouble, so I sneaked out of the mansion to find you."

The prince held Li Wanrong in his arms and said softly, "I'm fine. Don't sneak out of the house again before the child is born."

Li Wanrong's face turned ugly and she pushed the prince away: "Until now, you still don't believe that the child in my belly is yours."

The prince thought so in his heart, but he dared not say it out loud: "It's not important, your safety and reputation are important."

"Of course it's important." Li Wanrong could accept other people's strange looks, but she couldn't accept the prince's strange look. She didn't want the child to be born and not be liked by the prince.

The prince didn't know how to answer this question. Li Wanrong had just returned and didn't want to argue with him: "Let's not discuss this issue. You can have dinner with me."

Li Wanrong was so angry that she had no intention of having dinner with the prince. The prince's attitude made her feel insecure: "We must make this matter clear today. What are you going to do after I give birth to the child?"

The prince had already planned this issue. He was too soft-hearted to agree to let Li Wanrong give birth to the child at the beginning. After this period of time, he thought about it and decided not to hurt the old lady's heart. When Li Wanrong gave birth to the child, he would send the child to a farm in the countryside. Thinking of Li Wanrong's care for the child, he said, "Don't worry about these things. I will take care of it."

"No, I have to know today."

The prince pursed his lips and did not reply.

This cold attitude made Li Wanrong understand that although the prince agreed to let her give birth to the child, the child would not have a good fate. She pushed the prince out in anger. The oath of love the prince whispered in her ear was just a lie to coax her: "I don't want to see you."

The prince, who was locked outside the door, looked helpless. Seeing that Li Wanrong was still angry, he left the yard.

Li Wanrong was so sad that she kept crying. She just wanted to give birth to the child so that she would have a blood relative in the long years to come. She grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it on the ground.

The banging sounds frightened Xiniang, who was standing outside the door. Ever since she was assigned to serve in Aunt Li's courtyard, she had been spending every day being beaten and scolded by Li Wanrong. She thought that Li Wanrong had escaped from the Prince's Mansion and she could finally get rid of such a life, but she didn't expect that Li Wanrong would come back again.

Li Wanrong smashed everything in the room, but the anger in her heart had not dissipated. She opened the door and saw the trembling bridesmaid standing there. She reached out and grabbed the bridesmaid's fair arm: "I think you are deliberately trying to irritate me."

"I dare not," the bridesmaid defended herself, suppressing her tears.

The bridesmaid's explanation was of no use. Li Wanrong became even more ruthless. She picked up the feather duster in the corner and hit the bridesmaid hard.

The bridesmaid was lying on the ground, allowing Li Wanrong to beat and scold her, and she did not dare to cry out loud.

Li Wanrong had vented enough and threw away the feather duster in her hand: "Xing'er, I'm hungry, ask the kitchen to make me a bowl of noodles." After that, she closed the door.

Xing Er came over and kicked the bridesmaid lying on the ground: "What are you still doing here? Didn't you hear what Auntie told you? Go to the kitchen quickly."

Xiniang stumbled to her feet, walked to the kitchen, waited for the chef to cook the noodles, and then carried them to Aunt Li's yard. In order to prevent the noodles from getting cold, she endured the pain in her body, quickened her pace, and brought the hot noodles to Li Wanrong.

Standing aside with her head down, Li Wanrong felt much calmer. After finishing her noodles, she let the bridesmaid go down to rest.

The bridesmaid returned to the room and took off her coat. Her fair skin was covered with blue and purple scars, with new and old scars overlapping each other.

"You were beaten by Aunt Li again."

The bridesmaid turned her head and looked at Lancao who came in: "There is nothing we can do. We are slaves. We can only endure it and cannot resist."

Lancao picked up the ointment on the table and applied it to Xi Niang's wound: "I think you can leave the Prince's Mansion. There is no need to stay here. There are so many mansions in the capital, you can go to any one of them."

Xi Niang had heard this many times. The reason why she was willing to stay in the Prince's Mansion was because it gave her the most monthly salary. Her four-year-old son was often sick and needed money for treatment. She couldn't leave the Prince's Mansion: "Thank you for your concern. These are just superficial injuries. They will pass if you bear with them."

"Hey, I really don't know what you are thinking. You didn't sell yourself to the Prince's Mansion. You were hired by the Prince's Mansion. You are often beaten by Aunt Li, but you can still endure it. If it were me, I would have left long ago."
