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

He Shulan stepped forward to help the bridesmaid up and asked softly, "What's wrong with you? Why are you crying here alone?"

The bridesmaid looked at He Shulan flattered, but didn't mention the beating. "Thank you for your concern, Princess. I just miss home."

He Shulan glanced at Xinniang and saw that she had bruises on her face and neck. Her expression became serious. She stepped forward and lifted Xinniang's coat. There was not a single spot of good skin on her fair skin. "You were beaten by Aunt Li again."

Xi Niang was at a loss, not knowing why the Princess knew that it was Aunt Li who hit her, but there was no time to think about this question now: "No, these injuries were caused by me accidentally bumping into them."

He Shulan didn't understand why Xiniang had to endure this. She wasn't a maid who sold herself into the mansion. Seeing so many injuries on Xiniang's body, she knew that she couldn't wait any longer: "You don't have to hide it from me. I know everything about your abuse by Aunt Li. Maybe I can help you."

The bridesmaid's eyes were red and tears could not stop flowing from the corners of her eyes. After living in the Prince's Mansion for so long, besides Lancao, the Prince's Consort was the second person who cared about her.

The Princess of the County was the mistress of the house. Li Wanrong was favored, so she shouldn't dare to be too presumptuous in front of the Princess of the County. Perhaps the Princess of the County could save her. At this moment, she seemed to have grabbed a life-saving straw and knelt in front of the Princess of the County: "Please, Princess of the County, save me. I can't stand it anymore. Since I entered the Prince's Mansion and was assigned to Aunt Li's courtyard, I have been working under Aunt Li's insults every day, and being beaten is commonplace."

"We can't rush this matter. We need to set up a good plan so that I can rescue you."

The bridesmaid looked at He Shulan with tearful eyes: "Everything will be subject to the arrangements of the Princess."

He Shulan held the bride's hand, and the warmth of her palm calmed the anxious bride. "Next month is the old lady's birthday. The old lady doesn't like crowds, so she will go to the temple on the mountain to pray. When the time comes, you can go with her. I will arrange the rest."

"it is good."

He Shulan continued, "It's getting late. You should go back and rest early. Just pretend that nothing happened. Stay with Li Wanrong peacefully during this time."

Watch the bridesmaid leave.

He Shulan led Chunxia back to the yard.

Chunxia couldn't help but be curious: "How are you going to deal with the matter of Xi Niang?"

"Secret."

Now, Chunxia felt even more itchy: "Good master, just tell this servant!"

He Shulan laughed out loud, but she still didn't tell Chunxia about her plan: "I haven't even started yet, but you can't wait to know. You'll know on the old lady's birthday."

……

Li Wanrong went to the Prince's courtyard these days, but she didn't see him several times. She waited outside the Prince's courtyard, and finally waited until Liu De walked out of the door. She hurried forward to stop him and said with a smile, "Long time no see."

Liu De looked at Li Wanrong with a half-smile: "What's the matter with Aunt Li blocking me here?"

"Of course I have something to talk to you about. You know the prince has refused to see me these past few days. Can you help me think of a way to let me meet the prince?"

Liu De's attitude towards Li Wanrong was still very respectful. Although the prince didn't like Li Wanrong during this period, it didn't mean that Li Wanrong had fallen out of favor: "I'm just a servant. If the prince doesn't want to see you, what can I do?"

"Tell me the whereabouts of the prince, and I will go find him."

Liu De refused without hesitation. He grew up with the prince and knew him well. If he revealed the prince's whereabouts to Li Wanrong, the prince would definitely not forgive him: "The prince is still angry now. Come back to him later."

Li Wanrong began to coax her: "If you help me this time, I will help you find a wife."

Everyone in the Prince's Mansion knew what Liu De was like. No girl from a good family would be willing to marry him. They didn't take Aunt Li's words to heart: "Thank you Aunt Li for your kindness. Aunt Li doesn't need to worry about my affairs."

"I'm telling the truth. I'll give you Xi Niang, the maid in my yard."

Liu De was moved. He had seen Xi Niang several times. She was pretty and plump. He was very satisfied. "I hope Aunt Li will keep her word. I will speak well of Aunt Li in front of the prince. When the time comes, I will tell Aunt Li the whereabouts of the prince."

Li Wanrong was very happy after bribing Liu De. In modern times, in order to climb up the social ladder, people often send beautiful women to the powerful and wealthy. It didn't matter whether they were married or not, as they were just out for fun anyway. She completely forgot that this was in ancient times.

When she returned to the yard, she ran into Xing'er who was looking for her: "What do you want from me?"

"Chun Xia just told me that the first of next month is the old lady's birthday, and everyone in the mansion will go to the temple to pray for her."

"No." What Li Wanrong hated most was the ancient feudal superstition, thinking that worshiping a few Bodhisattvas could change a person's destiny.

"The old lady will be angry if you don't go. Besides, this time you won't be staying for just one day, but for several days before coming back. I specifically asked Chunxia to tell us so that we can prepare in advance."

Li Wanrong waved her hand impatiently: "I know, you should prepare everything in advance!"

"Living in the temple, Auntie, who are you going to bring to serve you?"

Li Wanrong thought for a while and said, "Isn't it enough to take you alone?"

"I need to serve you personally, but there are other tasks that need to be done, so it is not enough to bring me alone." Xing'er explained carefully.

"Just take the three maids in the backyard with you, that's enough." Li Wanrong replied. With these three maids, all the chores could be done.

……

Days passed one by one, and soon it was the old lady's birthday. The servants in the mansion were coming in and out carrying things, and it was extremely lively.

He Shulan helped the old lady into the carriage.

The old lady asked in confusion, "It would only take one day to go to the temple, why do you have to stay there for five days?"

"I have also arranged for prayers, so it takes so many days." He Shulan lied without changing her expression.

The old lady didn't ask any more questions: "Just make your arrangements. It's a good opportunity to take a walk in the back hills of the temple and relax."

Aunt Li, who had gotten up late, hurried out and ran into the prince getting on the carriage. She ran up to him and said, "I'll ride in the same carriage with you."

The prince did not refuse. During this period, Liu De often said good things about Li Wanrong in his ear. The anger in his heart dissipated a lot, and he stretched out his slender white hand to Li Wanrong.

Li Wanrong immediately held it and got on the prince's carriage.

The matchmaker stuffed Li Wanrong's luggage into the carriage, turned around and met Liu De, who was smiling at her.

Liu De reached out to touch Xiniang's face.

He was avoided by the bridesmaid and ran away in panic.

Liu De was not angry, and whispered: "You will be mine sooner or later."
