In the dead of night, there were only frogs croaking, there was no moon in the sky, and the stars were shining brightly. Xian Zijian lay on her back on the bed, but she was not sleepy at all. She was afraid of waking up Xiaochun who was sleeping next to her, so she could only keep her sighs in her heart, feeling that her chest was tight. She could vaguely hear
There was the sound of a piano, which seemed to come from next door. The sad sound of the piano made Xian Zijian feel sad. It must be her sister who was playing the piano. The man who was about to marry should be happy with all his heart, but he played this sad music to the fullest. His sister must have
very sad.
Suddenly, the sound of the piano stopped, and someone whispered, "Ziyai, what are you doing?" It was her mother's voice. Xian Ziyuan immediately pricked up her ears. Her sister seemed to be playing the piano in the courtyard, otherwise her mother would not have heard it.
"My child is just not sleepy and is playing the piano in the courtyard to relieve his boredom." Xian Ziai's voice was a little tired and cold, "I didn't mean to disturb my mother's sweet dreams."
Xian Ziqian couldn't lie down any longer, so she quietly got up from the bed, then took a coat and put it on herself. Fortunately, the summer night was cool, so she didn't feel cold. She walked quietly to the door and opened it. It was very quiet outside.
The wall separates the two courtyards, and from what I hear, my mother and sister are indeed staying in the courtyard.
"Did you ask Qin Yun to go out today?" Mrs. Xian's voice was slightly annoyed, "Did you ask her to deliver news for you again? Zi Ai, how long has it been, why are you still so confused?
You insist on having your own way! How can you be worthy of Young Master Xuan? If the Guan family finds out, won't you ruin your life's happiness?! Zi Ai, I'm from here, and I know you like Young Master Xuan, but you can't marry him."
"Isn't my daughter obedient and staying at home to prepare to marry into the Guan family?"
Is it possible that if my daughter is not happy in her heart, why not let her vent before leaving home?"
Mrs. Xian took a long breath and said slowly: "Zi Ai, mother knows that you feel uncomfortable, but you are the future eldest daughter-in-law of the Guan family. This has become a fact when you were born."
"You obviously have two daughters, why does Zi Ai have to be like this?"
Okay, I want to be the best at playing chess, the best at reading books, and the best at painting. Zi Ai will listen to you. Zi Jian can live a life of doing nothing, but Zi Ai has to have no leisure every day! You have a lot of money.
You spent all your time with Zi Ai, but you had no time to care about Zi Ai. You didn’t even reprimand Zi Ai. You and your father just used Zi Ai as a tool to show off. Zi Ai’s appearance, Zi Ai’s talents, and Zi Ai’s marriage,
It's all the Xian family's capital to show off. Zi Ai was born for the Xian family, but she never had anything of her own. She really wanted something! The daughter met Mr. Xuan, the daughter fell in love with Mr. Xuan, and the daughter was willing to give birth to Mr. Xuan as Xuan.
Even if the young master dies, even if he can only be the concubine of Mr. Xuan for the rest of his life, as long as he can be with Mr. Xuan, Zi Ai will be willing to do so! However, you let Zi Jian get close to him, entangle him, and love him, just for the sake of letting him.
Zi Ai keeps the so-called marriage, so that the Xian family does not have to be embarrassed! Zi Ai hates you, hates that you are Zi Ai’s biological parents!"
Xian Ziqian's eyes widened. Listening to her sister's words, it seemed that her sister was quite envious of her?!
Mrs. Xian also had a look of astonishment on her face, her body trembled slightly, and after a while she said in a trembling voice: "Ziyai, how can you say this to your parents? Do you know how much your parents care about you? For you, what are your parents?
You are willing to do it. Your parents have never thought about asking that girl Zi Xuan to take away Mr. Xuan for you. They just asked that girl Zi Xian to take the blame for you and prevent the Guan family from knowing about you and Mr. Xuan so that you can be happy all your life.
With the character of Zijian, how can Mr. Xuan fall in love with her? Don’t worry, mother will not let her marry Mr. Xuan. When you marry into the Guan family, your parents will immediately make a marriage arrangement for your sister.
Your father will choose a widowed woman among the officials and merchants he is familiar with in the capital to marry her as a house filler, and she will never be better than you in her life."
Xian Zijian shuddered slightly and smiled bitterly. Would her sister still envy her?
"Zi Ai doesn't care what happens to Xian Zi Jian." Xian Zi Ai said indifferently, "No matter how unfortunate her life is, it can't increase Zi Ai's happiness at all, but Zi Ai will never let her have another chance to get close to Mr. Xuan. Zi Ai agreed to marry Guan Yupeng
, It’s not to protect the Xian family’s face, nor to not lose Zi Ai’s so-called happiness and face, but just to prevent Xian Zi Jian from having an excuse to get close to Mr. Xuan!”
Mrs. Xian stared blankly at her daughter in front of her, unable to say a word.
Xian Ziqian covered her mouth to block all the surprise. She wanted to rush out and tell her sister that she would never like Xuan Yi. Her sister could rest assured that as long as her sister no longer interacts with Xuan Yi, she promises not to do so in her life.
Will appear in front of Xuan Yi again.
In the early morning, Xian Ziyan was lying on the bed sleepy. She went to bed very late last night, and then she kept dreaming all night long. She dreamed that her sister pointed at herself and scolded her as a despicable person, and Xuan Yi also helped her sister scold her.
There are four days left, plus there are four days left today, if we insist on four more days, as soon as my sister gets married, she will be Amitabha, and she can return to her previous life, serving her mother with Xiaochun, listening to her mother's scoldings, and becoming a female celebrity
, occasionally learn piano from Aunt Wan, and then wait to marry a man who lost his wife one day to fill in the house.
Xiaochun walked in from the outside and said to Xian Ziqian who was still lying on the bed: "Second Miss, the master is asking if the embroidery that Mr. Xuan ordered before will be started today. If it is started now, the master will ask the wife to choose the fabric. You
Let’s embroider it first and then make the cloak.”
Xian Ziqian then remembered that she had forgotten to tell her father when she came back yesterday that the peony picture no longer needed to be embroidered, and she was only busy discussing the letter with Wanqing. "Understood, I'll get up right now. Is father outside?"
"The master is in the eldest lady's courtyard next door, discussing the dowry with the eldest lady, and the madam is also there." Xiaochun lowered her voice and said, "The eldest lady doesn't look good, and my servant doesn't look good when I see the master and his wife. Second lady, you have to be careful.
Some, this servant is afraid that the anger of the master and his wife will be revealed on you."
Xian Ziqian sighed. She had been unlucky since she was a child anyway. She could only listen to her parents' scoldings, and thinking to herself, she hurriedly got up, washed and changed clothes, and went to her sister's garden.
"You really have a blessed life." As soon as I walked in, I heard my mother's irritable voice.
Xian Ziqian immediately lowered her head. No explanation was allowed at this time. Her sister's words last night must have made her mother very angry. Xiaochun was right. Today's parents' misbehavior and sister's misbehavior will be vented on her alone. As long as she doesn't take action
, just pretend you didn’t hear the unpleasant words.
Xian Boteng was still frightened when he thought about what happened at Prince Xuan's Mansion yesterday. He glanced at Xian Zijian and said, "Don't be lazy. You must hurry up and get things done as Master Xuan ordered."
