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

Prince Ning came to the Prince's Mansion angrily and found the Prince playing chess with He Shulan in the garden: "Why did you send a beggar to the government office?"

The prince looked at He Shulan uncomfortably, leaving her indifferent. She could only take all the responsibility: "The carriage of the prince's mansion accidentally hit the beggar. In order to make up for him, he was sent to the government office. I see that the beggar is healthy and has no missing limbs. Don't be picky."

Prince Ning became even more angry: "What do you think of the government office? You think of it as a beggars' shelter. The government office is a place to solve cases and maintain public order. Not everyone can enter."

The prince knew this, of course, but He Shulan insisted on sending the beggar to the government office, so he could only support him: "You take him in first, if it doesn't work out, you can arrange another position for him later."

"Why don't you just give him a few hundred taels of silver and get rid of him? Why do you have to make such a fuss?"

The prince felt wronged and could not defend himself: "Just consider it as repaying a favor for me. I'll treat you to a meal."

"I need your meal, but you are trying to make trouble for me." The friend asked for help, and Prince Ning couldn't refuse. In front of the prince, he threatened: "If he doesn't do his job well, I will kick him out of the government office."

The prince secretly glanced at He Shulan, and seeing that she was sitting there calmly, he replied with a stiff upper lip: "He doesn't know anything, you teach him more, if it doesn't work, we can discuss it."

Prince Ning was so angry that he didn't want to continue chatting with the Prince. He came in angrily and left in angrily.

When Prince Ning's back disappeared at the door, the prince sat down and looked at He Shulan: "Why do you insist on sending the beggar to the yamen? Prince Ning is in a high position, and his words and deeds will be watched by people. I don't want to cause trouble for him."

He Shulan said: "When the time comes, Prince Ning will thank me."

The words were so vague that the prince could not understand them. "As long as you are happy, I will find a way if the beggar is not competent for the work of the government."

He Shulan smiled without saying anything. When Prince Ning discovered Zhu Jun's talent for solving cases, he would be very happy, so the Prince sent the person over.

……

With He Shulan's instructions, Bai Fei kept a close eye on Tao Lan and asked about wherever she went.

This made Tao Lan very distressed, and she tried every possible means to go out for a stroll.

Tan Shaocong, who originally planned to stay in the capital for half a month, stayed in the capital for Tao Lan and came to Tao's house several times.

Being stopped outside the gate by the gatekeeper made him very depressed. Wherever he went, he was always a welcome guest, but when he arrived at Tao's house, he was turned away.

Outside the gate, he kept wandering around and ran into Tao Lan who slipped out from the side door.

This made him very happy: "Why did you go out so secretly?"

Tao Lan didn't dare tell Tan Shaocong that it was her mother who was afraid that she would meet Tan Shaocong and watched her closely: "You know, the wealthy families in the capital have many rules, and we can't go out casually."

Tan Shaocong nodded in understanding. He had finally met her, so he naturally wouldn't let go of this opportunity: "Wherever you want to go, I'll go with you."

"I've been in the mansion for too long, so I want to go out for a walk. It doesn't matter where I go."

Tan Shaocong didn't know how to express his feelings for Tao Lan, and he couldn't say it directly.

I was afraid of scaring Tao Lan, and also afraid of being rejected by Tao Lan. After thinking it over, I could only give her a subtle reminder.

"I came to the capital and passed by the main street. I saw a marriage temple. There was a big lake in front of the temple. It was full of lotus flowers. There were even a few lotus flowers with two stems. Do you want to go and see it?"

Tao Lan blushed instantly. The Marriage Temple is a place where men and women pray for marriage.

Tan Shaocong took her there to express his feelings to her. She mustered up her courage and nodded.

This made Tan Shaocong very happy. He immediately took Tao Lan into the car and became much more affectionate towards her.

When they arrived at the Marriage Temple, Tan Shaocong helped Tao Lan get off the carriage.

There are a lot of people in the Marriage Temple, especially young men and women, who all come to pray for marriage. The temple is so crowded that you can't even see the Bodhisattva to be worshipped.

Tan Shaocong did not lead Tao Lan into the temple, but came to the lake to see the blooming lotus.

The pink lotus emits a light pink glow under the sunlight.

A crowd of people gathered in front of the twin lotus flowers growing by the lake, all wanting to get some good luck.

Tan Shaocong blocked the crowd for Tao Lan so that she could see the twin lotus flowers by the lake.

Tao Lan really enjoys Tan Shaocong's care.

"Princess, look, those by the lake seem to be Miss Tao Lan and Mr. Tan."

He Shulan looked in the direction Chunxia pointed, and sure enough, she saw Tao Lan and Tan Shaocong looking at the lotus flowers by the lake.

She was so angry that her face turned blue, and she failed to defend herself no matter how hard she tried.

Seeing that He Shulan was unhappy, Bai Lian asked softly, "What's wrong with you? I think Miss Tao and that young man are a good match."

"I don't think they are a good match at all. I must break up the couple today and separate them."

Bai Lian watched He Shulan walk over angrily. She asked Chun Xia, "Princess, why don't you agree that the two of them should be together?"

"I don't know. I also think Mr. Tan is very handsome and a good match for Miss Tao, but the Princess of the County doesn't agree."

The two stopped chatting and followed the Princess.

……

"What are you two doing?"

The sudden sound startled Tao Lan and Tan Shaocong.

The two turned their heads and stared blankly at He Shulan who appeared in front of them.

Tao Lan stuttered, "Why are you here?"

He Shulan was so angry that she didn't know what to say: "I should be the one asking you this, why are you here with Tan Shaocong?"

"I was bored at home, so I wandered around. I ran into Mr. Tan on the way, so we came to the lakeside of the Marriage Temple to see the lotus flowers."

He Shulan snorted coldly: "You can fool others with this, but you can't fool me. Without the permission of your parents and the company of servants, you cannot be alone with a man outside."

Tao Lan was unhappy, and swallowed the words she wanted to talk back: "Can you please stop caring about me?" At this point, she lowered her voice: "I want to make my own decision about my marriage and be with the person I love."

"No, you can like anyone, but you can't like Tan Shaocong."

"Why?" Tao Lan was angry.

"Because you will die in his hands."

Hearing He Shulan's nonsense, Tao Lan laughed: "How is it possible? I am the legitimate daughter of the Tao family after all. If Tan Shaocong dares to attack me, my parents will not let him go, not to mention that I believe in him."

Now He Shulan was completely at her wit's end, and she still wanted to continue persuading him.

Bai Lian behind him pulled her back and said, "Ms. Tao is now completely immersed in Mr. Tan's sweet words. It's useless for you to say anything. Instead, it will only push her further away."

An anxious He Shulan asked, "What should I do to stop Tan Shaocong from getting close to Tao Lan?"
