Wei Bingyan walked in with a smile. She didn't feel so comfortable after coming back for so long. Oh, no, she couldn't be too relaxed. Wei Bingru was not the kind of person who would give in easily. As long as she didn't marry into the Chu family, she would have opportunities every day.

Looking at Wei Bingru sitting directly on the soft big bed, her eyes were severely swollen from tears, and the makeup on her face was melted away by her tears. She looked really miserable.

"What are you doing in here? Get out!" Wei Bingru turned her head and picked up a silk handkerchief to wipe the tears from her face. Even though she was bitter and resentful deep in her heart, she didn't want Wei Bingyan to see her like this.

Wei Bingyan sat down on the drum stool beside her and asked Bai Binghui to wait outside. She and Wei Bingru were the only ones in the room. She poured herself a cup of tea. The tea was a little cold. Wei Bingyan licked it and said, "Second sister, are you crying tears of joy?"

“Is it fun to pour cold water on you here now?” Wei Bingru looked at the pair of obviously red eyes and glared at Wei Bingyan fiercely.

She was not pouring cold water! It was not enough to let Wei Bingru betrothed to Prince Chu. She had not thought of counterattacking Wei Bingru so quickly and fiercely. It was Wei Bingru who first wanted to plan for her to betrothed to Prince Chu.

In her previous life, Wei Bingru plotted to kill the baby in her belly. If she hadn't wanted to fight back fiercely against Wei Zhong and Shen Rouruo, she would not have let Wei Bingru go.

Although much of the hatred she had with Wei Bingru was from the previous life, and the resentment in this life had not yet been truly formed, the resentment and unhappiness deep in her heart still remained.

She was not magnanimous enough to forget the child she had lost in the past, so she resented Wei Bingru deep in her heart.

However, even if she was willing to forget the resentment deep in her heart, Wei Bingru would not let her go. As long as she was a little negligent, Wei Bingru would work hard to replace her position as the legitimate daughter of the Wei family, just like in her previous life, and become the legitimate daughter of the Wei family that everyone envied.

She will never let anyone replace her again!

"I'm not throwing cold water on you!" Wei Bingyan gently placed the cup on the table, making a tiny sound. "Second sister, I really congratulate you. The Chu family is an earl passed down from generation to generation. The prince of Chu will also be a prince in the future. With your status, being able to be the wife of a prince is already a great blessing. Father treats you really well."

"I am willing to be someone's concubine, but I don't want to marry into the Chu family!" Wei Bingru said coldly.

Wei Bingyan smiled grimly, "Whose concubine do you want to be? You don't want to be the main wife, but you want to be a concubine. Do you think any concubine can be as free as Concubine Lian in the Wei family?"

"None of your business!" Wei Bingru screamed, "You want to marry Li Yunze? Bah, you're dreaming. He won't like you. Someone like you is not worthy of him at all."

"Whether he likes me or not, what does it have to do with me? Marriage is decided by our parents, not by us. Besides, if I am not worthy, then what are you?" Wei Bingyan knew that Wei Bingru particularly liked Li Yunze. Even her aunt was sure that Wei Zhong wanted to marry her to Li Yunze.

Wei Bingru must feel very uncomfortable and unwilling deep down in her heart, right?

Maybe he will secretly sabotage this matter. My father deliberately ordered someone to make arrangements at Princess Ping'an's banquet.

If Wei Bingru could prevent her from marrying Li Yunze, she would actually feel less powerful.

Wei Bingru sniffed her nose, gradually stood up, walked to sit opposite Wei Bingyan, and said, "Well, I sincerely wish you to find your ideal husband."

"Thank you, second sister. I will naturally do as you say." Wei Bingyan said with a smile.

As they left quickly, Wei Bingyan recalled that after Wei Bingru calmed down, there was a hint of ferocity hidden in her eyes. She was really worried that Wei Bingru would do something weird and ruin her marriage with the Chu family.

Not long after returning to Wanyuan, the people in the needlework room brought Wei Bingyan a new dress that they had made overtime. It was a sea-red Hangzhou silk moonlight skirt.

"The style is nice, but... the color seems too bright. It's different from what the young lady wears on a daily basis. She looks much older and more worn out when she puts it on." Bai Binghui opened the beautiful dress and said with a frown, thinking that the people in the needlework room had poor taste.

An Xiang said softly, "Miss, that style has long been out of fashion. If you wear it outside, you will definitely be laughed at by others."

Wei Bingyan touched the beautiful dress lightly, "This is the style that my second sister personally picked for me. Now she is in charge of the needlework room, and these people think they have to listen to her. They dare to treat me perfunctorily with such a rare dress. Anxiang, you can return the dress and ask for confirmation that this is the dress for me. No need to say anything else."

Do you think that she has become a country bumpkin who knows nothing after leaving the capital for a year? It's really funny!

She didn't care about what to wear to the banquet, and she didn't want any momentum, but she didn't want to be made a joke for no reason. These blind servants should be able to see clearly who is the real master of the Wei family courtyard.

She would never allow anyone to forcibly take away her rightful status and superior rights at any time.

"Where is Aunt Yin? Why haven't I seen her?" Anxiang left with the beautiful dress. Wei Bingyan copied a few pages from the medical book, then craned her neck to ask Bai Binghui who was standing in front of the door.

"I'll go over and take a look." Bai Binghui responded, gently lifted her leg and walked out.

In a flash, she replied, "Mr. Li's exam is tomorrow, and Aunt Yin is preparing dessert for him before he enters the exam room."

I almost forgot, the imperial examination is tomorrow, Li Yuyan...the real glory days are coming.

"My mother gave me a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum last time. It is very good for improving eyesight and refreshing the mind. You can ask Aunt Yin to cut a slice and take it to Young Master Li. He has an exam in five days, so he must have good eyesight and refreshing his mind." Wei Bingyan said.

"Yes, Miss!" Bai Binghui smiled and immediately turned around and ran out.

An Xiang gently lifted the curtain and walked in, "Bai Binghui has encountered something, she is running faster than flying."

"Young Master Li will take the imperial examination tomorrow, so she is naturally happy." Wei Bingyan said with a smile.

"Young Master Li will certainly win." An Xiang said with a smile. She had lived in Jinyun City for many years, so she naturally knew how powerful this young master was, who had been known as a child prodigy with outstanding intelligence since childhood.

Wei Bingyan nodded, her eyes falling on the light green Yang Shenzhi tube skirt in her hand.

An Xiang said, "I went to the needlework room and asked the embroiderer there. She said at first that she had not taken the wrong item. I just asked if the needlework room knew what color clothes the young lady liked. The housekeeper happened to hear it and hurriedly said that she had taken the wrong item."

This was Wei Bingyan’s favorite color in the past!

My mother has been away from the capital for three years. No matter how careful we are, there are still times when we are careless. There is no doubt that there are people who are involved with Aunt Lian in every department and room of the family.

"Please keep it carefully." Wei Bingyan said softly.

An Xiang asked, "Miss, don't you want to try it?"

“No need, just keep it carefully!” Wei Bingyan smiled and lowered her head to read again.

……

After Wei Bingyan left, Wei Bingru sat alone in the room for a long time. Just thinking that she would marry into the Chu family and might never see Li Yunze again in her life, and thinking that Li Yunze might become her brother-in-law, she felt a huge pain in her heart.

It can't be like that!

"Ping'er, go get me some water. I need to wipe my face carefully." She called the maid, her face full of anger again.

After packing herself up, Wei Bingru went to Aunt Lian's room.

"Postpone the wedding date?" Aunt Lian exclaimed in surprise when she heard Wei Bingru's words.

Wei Bingru said, "That's true, Auntie. The eldest daughter is the oldest sister, and she hasn't even been engaged yet. How can a younger sister like me get married before her?"

When Aunt Lian heard this, she almost choked. "Why do you bother with this? Even if there is no such reason, the old man and the mistress won't say anything. Who among the people below dares to gossip about it?

If you get married earlier, you will be the young mistress of the prince of Chu. Then I will be proud of myself in this family, and your brother will not be afraid of having no way out in the future. If you delay any longer, who knows what kind of accidents may happen in the future."

"You only think about your brother and yourself, why don't you think about me!" Wei Bingru screamed, took two deep breaths, and finally suppressed her raging anger, "Aunt, if I marry before Wei Bingyan, others will definitely laugh at me behind my back without seeing me. Father can't think of this, so you have to help him think about it.

Look, your father hasn't been to your house for a long time. You should find a way to make him understand that you can become his good daughter-in-law!"

"What's wrong with this?" Aunt Lian looked at Wei Bingru strangely, "You are still thinking about Li Yunze deep in your heart!"

Wei Bingru felt so aggrieved and painful deep in her heart that she wanted to cry out loud. Even her own aunt wanted to use her marriage to secure a future for herself and her son. She never thought about whether she would be happy after getting married, nor did she ever think about whether she was willing or not.

"Forget it, I'll tell my father about this!" Wei Bingru put down the cup of water in her hand heavily and walked out of the house without looking back.

Even when her aunt called out to the back twice where she couldn't see, it didn't bring her back.

The next day, Wei Bingyan did not go for treatment. She asked Aunt Yin and Bai Binghui to work until late at night the day before to deliver the dessert to Li Yuyan, and left at dawn.

"My cousin, this is the Ganoderma lucidum that our young lady sincerely asked me to give you. If you feel tired, take a few slices and soak them in water to drink. It is very good for your eyesight and mind." Bai Binghui passed the box of ginseng slices to Li Yuyan, and the maid beside Li Yuyan reached out to take it.

She looked over fiercely, frightening the other party so much that he quickly retracted his hand, "Cousin, you must keep it well, it is a token of our young lady's love."

He placed it in Li Yuyan's hand with a smile.

Li Yuyan was a little surprised. After opening it, she saw that it was filled with top-quality ginseng slices. A faint smile flashed across her pretty face. "Is this something your young lady asked you to give me?"

Bai Binghui nodded vigorously, "Our young lady said that you will definitely win, cousin."

"Please help me sincerely thank your young lady!" Li Yuyan said.

"Hey!" Bai Binghui responded with a smile.

Guan Hualang, who came to see Li Yuyan off, said impatiently, "Hurry up and go in. It's crowded here and the sun is so strong. If you don't get burned to death, you'll be suffocated and sent to heaven."

"Cousin, please go in and take special care of yourself." Aunt Yin handed the lunch box to Li Yuyan's maid.

Li Yuyan nodded lightly and entered the examination room with her servants.
