The Evil Mistress's Killing Crazy Daily
Chapter 70 Never Help My Son-in-Law Get Promoted
"Even if she's sick, she has to crawl to me!"
"Mom, I'm here."
As soon as Madam Xi finished speaking, Ruan Yunluo came over, supported by Nanny Wan.
She was dressed in festive clothes, but her face was extremely pale, and she coughed violently from time to time... She looked like a consumptive patient, which was terrifying to watch.
Seeing this state, not to mention the guests, even Old Madam Xi was frightened.
"you……"
Madam Xi looked at Ruan Yunluo in shock, "How did you become like this?"
"I don't know either. He was fine a while ago... I consulted the court doctor several times but he couldn't find the cause of the disease..."
Ruan Yunluo looked sad and unwilling, and complained incoherently. Then, she forced a smile and continued to say to Madam Xi: "But fortunately, perhaps because of the third sister's happy event, Yunluo feels much better today. Mother, don't worry, just leave the reception to me... cough, cough cough!"
"you……"
Old Madam Xi held her breath and quickly covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief.
She took two steps back calmly, frowning and complaining to Ruan Yunluo, "Why didn't you tell me earlier that you were so seriously ill? Why did you come out when you are in this state?"
"Today is my third sister's wedding banquet. As the eldest sister-in-law, I have to entertain the guests... cough cough! cough..."
Ruan Yunluo coughed a few more times, and then assured Madam Xi responsibly, "Don't worry, mother. Today's reception... cough cough..."
"Alright, alright!"
Madam Xi frowned and waved her hands quickly, "Hurry up, go back and recuperate, you are not needed here."
"Yes, ma'am, please go back."
Nanny Fan stood in front of Old Madam Xi and spoke hurriedly.
"Okay, in that case, I'll go back... ahem... congratulate my third sister on my behalf... ahem! ahem..."
"Okay, okay, I got it. Let's go back now."
Following the impatient voice of Old Madam Xi, Ruan Yunluo walked away reluctantly, coughing every three steps.
Suifeng Garden.
Ruan Yunluo washed off the pale makeup on her face, took off her solemn and festive clothes, sat leisurely in the rocking chair, and began to read a book.
After a while, she put down the book and looked at Aunt Wan helplessly.
"Go ahead." She sighed, "What do you want to ask?"
"I don't have anything to ask..."
Nanny Wan avoided her eyes embarrassedly.
But after a while, she couldn't help but look at Ruan Yunluo out of curiosity, "Madam, today's wedding banquet is really grand. It must have cost a lot of money, right?"
"No."
"Then..." Nanny Wan swallowed nervously, "Madam, tell me, did Aunt Yin really cut Concubine Xi's expenses?"
"should be."
"She really dares?" Aunt Wan was shocked. "She doesn't want to live anymore!"
"How could Xiao Chongjing be willing to take her life?"
Ruan Yunluo smiled.
Even if he was willing, he wouldn't dare to do it.
Although Yin Xiaorou is not a princess now and is only a concubine, she is still the emperor's blood, and the emperor has some affection for her.
On the day when her imperial edict was issued, the attitude of Eunuch Fu in giving special instructions was very telling.
Besides, Yin Xiaorou has a younger brother.
Yin Wenyu has already been recognized as a prince.
Although Jun Yi Guang has many sons and does not seem to care much about Yin Wenyu, what about the future?
Who can say for sure what will happen next?
Emperor Jun Yi Guang has no feelings for his daughter Yin Xiaorou, but Prince Jun Wenyu has deep feelings for his sister Yin Xiaorou.
If Jun Wenyu inherits the throne in the future, then...
"boom--"
Ruan Yunluo was thinking when suddenly, firecrackers sounded in the front yard.
I thought it would stop soon, but it kept on crackling, and it gave me a headache...
"Good guy."
Nanny Wan’s head was buzzing.
She quickly asked the maids to close all the doors and windows, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but complain: "This Aunt Yin, even if she has money, she shouldn't spend it like this, right?
Although ten thousand taels of silver is a lot of money, it is actually a drop in the bucket when spent on dowry and it cannot buy much presentable things.
Instead of spending all the money on something worthless like this, it would be better to save up two more dowries for the Third Miss."
"Ten thousand taels is a drop in the bucket. What can this little money for firecrackers do?"
Ruan Yunluo smiled, "In fact, the foundation of this marriage has long been lost, so it's better to just go for broke and buy something cheap to make up the number.
If it’s put in a box, who can see it?
The right thing to do is to save more money to keep up the good work. At least from the outside, the Xiao family won’t be too embarrassed.”
"So this is what she was thinking..."
Nanny Wan suddenly realized and stopped looking down on Yin Xiaorou.
Outer courtyard.
Xiao Qintang's wedding banquet was quite lively, lasting from noon until the evening before gradually ending.
After the show, everyone in the mansion was busy.
Not only were they busy cleaning until late at night, but they also all got up before dawn the next day to begin preparing for Xiao Qintang's wedding.
In the busy and lively atmosphere, the bride Xiao Qintang sat in front of the dressing table, looking unhappy.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Baoyue was combing Xiao Qintang's hair, and she felt panicked when she saw her in a daze.
"Nothing." Xiao Qintang shook her head, "I just..."
"Just what?"
Madam Xi’s voice rang out.
She came in with a brocade box and handed it to Xiao Qintang. "This is a gift sent by your aunt Xifei. Remember to wear it later."
After saying that, she turned and left.
"mother!"
Seeing that Old Madam Xi was about to leave, Xiao Qintang hurriedly grabbed the corner of her clothes and looked up with a bit of grievance, "Mother, I'm going to get married soon, you still won't forgive me?"
Old Madam Xi sighed.
She turned around, opened the brocade box in Xiao Qintang's hand, and took out the hairpin inside.
"Mother and daughter, what is there to forgive or not?"
Old Madam Xi slowly inserted the hairpin into Xiao Qintang's hair and earnestly advised, "Since you have chosen the man with the surname Lu, you must live a good life. When you go to your husband's house in the future, don't throw a tantrum anymore..."
As she spoke, she looked at Baoyue again, "When you get to the Lu family, serve your young lady well."
"Yes, ma'am."
Seeing her young lady choking with sobs, Baoyue's eyes also turned red.
At this moment, she heard the sound of suona from afar, so she quickly reminded Xiao Qintang: "Miss, stop crying, the bride is coming over there."
"Okay, stop crying."
Old Madam Xi took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped Xiao Qintang's tears.
Looking at her daughter in her wedding dress, her voice trembled, "Don't cry, your face is all red from crying..."
"Ah."
Xiao Qintang nodded obediently, but her tears continued to flow.
Seeing her like this, Old Lady Xi felt sad and couldn't help scolding, "You stupid girl, isn't this the one you desperately wanted to marry? Why are you crying?"
“…I’m sorry, mother…”
As Xiao Qintang spoke, tears started to fall even more, and no amount of persuasion could stop her.
Fortunately, Lu Yitong arrived quickly.
He comforted Xiao Qintang for a while, and after the two of them exchanged courtesies and bid farewell to Old Lady Xi and Xiao Chongjing, they left in a lively atmosphere, one riding a horse and the other sitting in a sedan chair, carrying things.
After they walked away, Xiao Chongjing was about to help Madam Xi back home... but he found that his mother was crying silently.
He sighed, "Mom, now that things have come to this, don't worry. At worst, I can find an opportunity in the future and try to raise Lu Yitong's position..."
"No!"
When Madam Xi heard this, she immediately regained her composure. She looked at Xiao Chongjing solemnly and said:
"For Qin Tang's sake, you must not help him get promoted!"
