The mind-reading sick prince led me and the system to go crazy
Chapter 60: A Happy Event Is Coming to the Li Family
Li House.
Not long after Doctor Ming from Renshan Hall left, Li Youbin woke up.
Although he had applied medicine and bandaged the wound, Li Youbin's buttocks still felt a burning pain, as if it was about to split apart.
Li Youbin was lying on the couch.
He gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain, and instantly recalled the scene before he fainted. Lord Jia personally ordered that he be beaten with thirty strokes of the cane, and the two yamen runners showed no mercy and beat him to death.
If he wasn't lucky, he would probably be reporting to the hell hall by now!
"My dear grandson!"
As soon as she saw Li Youbin open his eyes, Mrs. Li, who was standing beside the bed, threw herself on Li Youbin again and cried, "Damn old dog Jia, how dare he punish my grandson so harshly with a stick, I will never let him off!"
"grandmother!"
Li Youbin's eyes instantly turned red. The pain in his hips made him burst into tears when he moved a little. "My grandson almost never saw his grandmother again."
Li Youbin lost both his parents when he was young. He and his sister Li Qiuqiu were raised by their grandmother, and the two siblings were extremely dependent on their grandmother.
The family had a little property, but it had always been coveted by uncles and aunts. For this reason, elder sister Li Qiuqiu tried every means to become the concubine of Shi Weian, the governor of Jiangnan. After waving the banner of the governor of Jiangnan and persuading all the uncles and aunts, Li Qiuqiu followed Shi Weian, the governor of Jiangnan, to Jiangning.
Seeing this, Madam Li felt so distressed that she quickly coaxed him, "Bin'er, don't worry. Grandmother has already written to your sister. Your sister will surely be able to persuade Lord Shi to come to Suzhou in person and take off the official hat of that old dog Jia!"
Li Youbin's eyes lit up. He knew that his sister loved him the most and would never bear to let him suffer any injustice.
Now that Lord Jia is so arrogant, he dares to torture him. When my sister receives the letter, she will definitely whisper in Lord Shi's ear. Then...
Li Youbin clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, saying, "Grandma, I want that Jia guy to die in front of me!"
"Yeah!"
Madam Li echoed, "We have to make Jia the old dog and kowtow and admit his fault in front of my good grandson!"
Li Youbin's eyes were vicious, and he said excitedly: "Not only that, but also the two yamen runners who attacked me, and the man who colluded with Lord Jia, all must die!"
Seeing her grandson so excited, Mrs. Li was afraid that he might accidentally hurt his wound, so she quickly comforted him: "Okay, okay, listen to your grandson, they all deserve to die!"
As soon as he thought that they would soon die in front of him, Li Youbin instantly felt that the anger in his heart had dissipated a little.
Madam Li suddenly remembered something and said in a worried tone, "My dear grandson is injured now. He is going to marry Su Lian'er in three days. Why don't you postpone your wedding date?"
Postponing the wedding?
How can that work!
After what happened today, perhaps many people in the city are secretly watching him and making fun of him. If my grandmother postpones the marriage, I'm afraid that rumors will spread tomorrow that he, Li Youbin, was beaten half to death by Lord Jia and now can only lie on the couch and can't marry a beautiful bride!
Li Youbin's eyes darkened, and he rejected his grandmother's intention, "Grandma, the wedding cannot be postponed, so we will hold the wedding banquet on the original date. Moreover, grandma, don't forget to send a letter to Jiangning after the wedding date is set."
"Sister has already mentioned it to Lord Shi, and Lord Shi is also planning to come. If we change the wedding date today, once Lord Shi finds out, won't he think that our Li family is teasing him?"
"This……"
Upon hearing this, Madam Li raised her hand and slapped her forehead: "I am so old and confused that I actually forgot about this! Thanks to my dear grandson for mentioning it. Otherwise, Grandma would have done something bad with good intentions!"
"The wedding is only a few days away, so I will go out and take care of it myself. My dear grandson, please stay in your room and recover from your injuries."
"Don't worry, grandma. I will definitely recover soon."
"Good good."
Old Madam Li, leaning on a cane and supported by her maid, slowly walked out of the room.
The Li family was about to start making a big deal about Li Youbin's wedding. When the people in the city heard the news, they all sighed and wondered why Lord Jia's caning failed to kill the young master of the Li family?
Instead, let the bully continue to stay in the city and harm girls from good families?
The Su family also received the news.
Su Lian'er was dressing herself in front of the mirror when she suddenly heard the report from her maid A Wan. The comb in her hand instantly fell to the ground.
Ah Wan was startled and quickly knelt on the ground, calling out in a worried tone: "Miss?"
Su Lian'er's face turned pale, and her pair of sparkling eyes dimmed in an instant.
On that day, the young master of the Li family threatened her with the lives of his parents, asking her to agree to marry him. She was just a weak woman with no power or influence. In order to save her parents, Su Lian'er had no choice but to agree to the young master of the Li family with tears in her eyes, even though she knew that the young master of the Li family was not a good match for her, and set a wedding date with him.
Originally, Su Lian'er still held onto a glimmer of hope, hoping every day that the young master of the Li family would come to the Su family in person to cancel the marriage.
Unexpectedly, she didn't get what she wanted, but instead heard the news that the Li family was preparing for the wedding...
"I am fine."
Su Lian'er shook her head and suppressed all her pain in her heart: "Since the Li family has already started preparing for the wedding, I will not go out for the next two days and stay at home to wait for my wedding with peace of mind."
"If Mr. Zhao comes again, please reject him for me and tell him not to come again."
"Miss……"
A Wan looked at his young lady with tears in his eyes. Having served her for a long time, A Wan knew that his young lady had feelings for Master Zhao. But suddenly a young master from the Li family showed up and snatched the young lady away!
Her lady is so gentle and beautiful, she should marry the person she loves instead of marrying that evil bully!
Su Lian'er bent down slightly, and her white fingers fell on Ah Wan's cheek, gently wiping away the tears from her eyes, "Okay, don't cry. Since you can't resist, you can only choose to obey."
"Ah Wan, go ahead and tell Mr. Zhao."
In this life, she and Master Zhao are not destined to be together.
Upon hearing this, Ah Wan cried even harder and said excitedly, "Why don't you run away with Mr. Zhao?"
"Young lady did not go out today, so she did not know that Young Master Li was caned in the government office. Now that Lord Jia no longer protects Young Master Li, perhaps Young Lady will have other choices."
Su Lian'er was stunned and looked at Ah Wan in disbelief: "You just said that the young master of the Li family was caned?"
"Yes!"
Ah Wan wiped her tears with her sleeves and said seriously, "Everyone said that the young master of the Li family was disliked by Master Jia, so he was punished with this caning. So, young lady, you don't have to be afraid of the threats of the young master of the Li family anymore."
Su Lian'er suddenly stood up: "Let me think about it first."
It would be impossible for her to choose to escape from Suzhou.
Her parents are still alive, and the Su family's assets are all left in Suzhou. If she runs away and leaves her parents behind, how will they face the Li family's accountability?
This plan is not feasible.
It didn't work, she still couldn't run away.
She wouldn't have to marry him unless the young master of the Li family died.
The glimmer of hope that had just risen was instantly extinguished. Su Lian'er sighed, "Forget it, Ah Wan, I won't run away. There's no need to mention this matter anymore."
Seeing her young lady's resolute attitude, Ah Wan didn't know how to persuade her. She lowered her head, sniffed, and replied obediently: "I understand."
After saying that, A Wan stood up and walked out.
Young Master Zhao was waiting at the side door outside the mansion at this time, and she still had to obey the young lady's orders.
Ah Wan walked towards the side door.
There were not many servants in the mansion, and A Wan did not meet anyone else on the way there.
When we arrived at the side door, there was only Uncle Chai, who was blind in one eye, guarding it.
Ah Wan went over and said, "Uncle, please open the side door."
Uncle Chai recognized A Wan, the maid who had been serving the young lady since she entered the mansion.
Uncle Chai didn't ask the reason. After opening the side door, he walked to the other side.
A Wan cast a grateful look at Uncle Chai's back.
Uncle Chai paused slightly, then continued walking forward.
After going out of the side door, A Wan saw the man standing outside.
"Master Zhao."
Zhao Wuqian turned around and subconsciously looked past A Wan who was standing in front of him, looking for the figure that had been haunting him.
Unfortunately, I didn’t see it.
Zhao Wuqian took a half step back and looked up at A Wan with a disappointed look on his face: "A Wan, why doesn't Miss Lian'er come out?"
Ah Wan's eyes were slightly red, she shook her head and said: "Mr. Zhao, please go back. My young lady said that you don't have to come here anymore. The Li family is already preparing for the marriage between the young lady and the young master of the Li family..."
When this matter was mentioned, Zhao Wuqian's face suddenly darkened.
That was why he came.
He didn't want to lose Miss Lian'er, and even more so, he didn't want that damn Li Youbin to get Miss Lian'er. Miss Lian'er couldn't marry Li Youbin!
"Ah Wan, I know Miss Lian'er's difficulties, and I also believe that Miss Lian'er has me in her heart."
Zhao Wuqian said, "Please tell Miss Lian'er for me, Ah Wan. As long as I am here, I will never let Miss Lian'er enter the hell of the Li family!"
For the sake of Miss Lian'er, he could only agree to Brother Wei's request and take the risk to fight for the slightest chance to bring down the Li family!
After saying that, Zhao Wuqian wanted to turn around and leave.
Hearing Mr. Zhao's resolute tone, as if he was going to fight Mr. Li to the death for his young lady, Ah Wan was startled and quickly called him: "Mr. Zhao, please stay."
Zhao Wuqian stopped immediately and said, "But does Miss Lian'er have anything else to say?"
Ah Wan gently reminded: "Mr. Zhao, please think more about my young lady before you act."
"If anything happens to Mr. Zhao, my lady will be very sad."
Zhao Wuqian pursed his lips and said, "I understand."
Zhao Wuqian turned and left.
Ah Wan stood there alone, with a worried look on her face, sighing with a melancholy tone: "Why can't lovers finally get married?"
It is obvious that Mr. Zhao and my young lady are such a perfect match.
……
It was almost evening and the sun was setting in the west.
Lu Xiaoxiao and Xie Xi took a carriage back to Chang'an Temple outside the city.
The person sitting in the front driving the carriage was not Mu Qing. Guard Mu Qing had a mission and could only stay in the city.
The person driving the carriage at this time was the coachman who had been left in Luoyang Inn before, named Ding Dong.
With a "whoosh", the carriage stopped.
Ding Dong said, "Master, Madam, we have already reached the foot of the mountain."
"Ah."
Xie Xi responded in a low voice.
But looking at Lu Xiaoxiao sleeping soundly on his shoulder, Xie Xi couldn't bear to wake her up.
But now the night was getting darker, if they didn't go back, her two servants would probably be restless.
I don’t know how the conversation between Master Huaijun and Madam Jiang went.
Xie Xi lowered his eyes, hiding the contemplation in his eyes.
Looking sideways at the pretty sleeping woman, Xie Xi couldn't help but reach out his hand and gently pinched Lu Xiaoxiao's rosy cheek, calling her in a low voice: "Madam, wake up."
"We have to go back. Madam, wake up."
"Ok?"
Listening to the shouting beside her ear, she felt an inexplicable itch on her face and opened her eyes dazedly.
Lu Xiaoxiao, who had just woken up, looked confused. She stared at Xie Xi with sleepy eyes, unable to react: "Husband, what's wrong?"
His slender fingers gently brushed away the strands of hair stuck to her cheeks, and Xie Xi said in a gentle voice: "Madam, we have already reached the foot of the mountain of Chang'an Temple. It's time to go back."
"We're here."
Lu Xiaoxiao finally reacted. She lifted the veil of the window with one hand and looked at the darkening night outside. "Husband, let's get off the carriage first."
"Ah."
Xie Xi got off the carriage first.
Then, Xie Xi helped Lu Xiaoxiao get out of the carriage.
Ding Dong stood beside the horse holding two lanterns, lighting the way for His Highness.
Xie Xi: "Ding Dong, you can drive the carriage and wait at the foot of the mountain. You don't have to follow us."
Ding Dong responded, "Yes, Master."
"I'll leave the lantern for you."
After saying that, before Lu Xiaoxiao could react, Xie Xi suddenly put his arm around Lu Xiaoxiao, used his Qinggong skills, and quickly climbed up the mountain.
It was not until she stood at the gate of Chang'an Temple and stepped on the hard ground that Lu Xiaoxiao felt a sense of security.
Lu Xiaoxiao took a deep breath, stretched out her fingers and gently hooked Xie Xi's sleeves: "Husband, let's go in."
Noticing her little movement, Xie Xi pursed his lips, took her soft little hand, and responded, "Yeah."
The warmth in her palms gradually melted away. Lu Xiaoxiao secretly glanced at Xie Xi, then quickly looked away, pretending nothing had happened.
Xie Xi pursed her lips and chuckled.
The gate of Chang'an Temple was not closed, because Xie Xi had given instructions in advance, and the person guarding outside the gate was Xie Shiba.
Seeing his master and Lu Fengyi coming over, Xie Shiba was about to salute when he saw his master raising his hand to signal, "No need to be too formal when you are out there."
Xie Shiba understood and quickly responded, "Yes, Master."
Xie Xi and Lu Xiaoxiao entered Chang'an Temple together.
As soon as the two arrived at the backyard, they were seen by Chen Lu who had been guarding the yard.
Chen Lu hurried over and bowed to the two masters, "This servant greets the two masters. The two masters are finally back."
The day her master was away, she felt uneasy, fearing that something might happen to her.
Now that she saw her master returning safely, Chen Lu was completely relieved.
"Morning dew?"
Lu Xiaoxiao was surprised and frowned slightly: "It was windy at night and the courtyard was cold. You shouldn't have waited here."
