Reborn to be married, the mistress of the Marquis's Mansion is so sweet

Lin Wan, wearing a red veil, could only see a small piece of ground at her feet. She was led around like a doll and tossed around all day long.

She breathed a sigh of relief only after she sat down in the bridal chamber. The wedding process at the Yongning Marquis' Mansion was much more complicated than that of the Shen family in her previous life. Fortunately, Lin Wan had made preparations and asked Qinglian to prepare some small snacks. She ate some in the sedan chair, otherwise she would have fainted from hunger.

The banquet in the marquis's mansion was lively until midnight when it gradually stopped.

Lin Wan had been dozing with her eyes closed for a while. She woke up instantly when she heard footsteps outside the door and sat up straight.

The door was pushed open. Lin Wan was wearing a veil. In her limited field of vision, a pair of bright red men's boots walked up to her and stopped.

"Go down."

Accompanied by a clear male voice, the maids in the room went out one by one, and closed the door considerately.

Lin Wan was motionless, thinking about how to deal with the prince next. In the previous life, the two of them had very little communication. She was the prince's sister-in-law, but they had hardly spoken a few words.

I only vaguely remember that when Lin Fu returned home, she cried bitterly in front of Wang, saying that the Marquis's Mansion bullied her and that the prince left her alone in an empty room on his wedding night.

Later, Lin Wan was busy in the backyard of the Shen family. In order for Shen Qinghe to study without any burden, she used her dowry to subsidize the family income and also learned how to do business to make money.

Later, she accompanied Shen Qinghe on an assignment to another place, and she had to wait until she returned to the capital to hear about Lin Fu's affairs in the Marquis' Mansion from Wang and other female relatives.

Therefore, she had little impression of the Prince of Yongning, but Lin Wan understood that it would not work to confront the young masters of wealthy families like them head-on. She had to remain calm, show weakness, and plan slowly.

The dazzling light made Lin Wan blink, and her wandering thoughts came back to the present.

The veil was thrown carelessly on the bed.

"Are you the Lin Er that mother was talking about?" the man asked impatiently.

Lin Wan nodded meekly, slowly raised her eyes to look at his face and said, "My name is Lin Wan, and I am the second child in the family."

Lu Tingxu was dazed for a moment when he looked at Lin Wan's bright face. He had seen all kinds of women, some gentle as water, some smart and innocent, and some heroic, but few were as attractive as the one in front of him.

Lin Wan's skin was very white, like a piece of warm white jade, and her expression was gentle, but her eyes were cunning. Just like the little deer he had seen in the hunting grounds, he had already drawn the bow, but it looked at him with its big eyes without fear, then jumped left and right and hid in the woods and disappeared.

"Prince?" Lin Wan looked at the dazed person in front of her strangely and called softly.

"Ahem." Lu Tingxu coughed lightly, and continued to maintain a cold and hard attitude, and continued impatiently: "I don't care what your name is, anyway, you are chosen by my mother. I promised her to marry you, but other than this title, you don't want anything else."

Lin Wan lowered her head, and after a long while she responded in a low voice, "I know."

"I won't like you, touch you, or have children with you!"

Lin Wan continued to lower her head, "Yeah."

Lu Tingxu looked at her, thin and small, with her head down and her face invisible, her voice low, and her appearance of being obedient and aggrieved. He felt that he had gone too far, and if he continued to be tough and angry, he would be bullying the weak.

Alas... after all, marriage has always been a matter of parents' orders and matchmaker's words.

How could I expect a little girl to be able to do something when even I, a son of a marquisate, couldn't resist it?

Seeing Lin Wan's gentle and obedient appearance, I thought she was also obedient. If she had a stronger temper today, she would have jumped up and quarreled with me after being humiliated like this on the wedding night.

But Lin Wan just lowered her head and didn't dare to resist at all, which made Lu Tingxu feel a little distressed.

In fact, what did she do wrong?

Just like Yue Er, who grew up with him as a childhood sweetheart, quietly stayed in the yard to learn needlework and poetry, and her biggest hope was to marry him and live with him until old age. But she did not expect the Ye family to fall overnight, and she went from being a rich lady to a member of the Jiaofang Division.

Lu Tingxu recalled that when he rushed to the Jiaofangsi, Ye Shiyue's hairpin was pressed against her neck, and bright red blood was flowing down her slender neck.

He almost lost her forever, but even if he saved her, he could no longer marry her openly and could only hide her outside secretly.

Thinking of Ye Shiyue who had been ill for many days after learning that he was going to get married, Lu Tingxu felt a pain in his heart, and his eyes became even colder when he looked at Lin Wan.

"I already have someone I love, but fate has treated me wrongly and I cannot marry her. But I have promised her that I will only love her in this life. In the future, as long as you behave yourself, you will be the legitimate Crown Prince's Consort of our Yongning Marquis Mansion, and I will give you some face. But if you ask for too much, don't blame me for being rude!"

Lin Wan listened to him calmly, nodded again and said, "Okay."

Lin Wan was very satisfied with Lu Tingxu's request and guarantee. This was what she wanted from the beginning.

Seeing her calm expression, Lu Tingxu inexplicably felt that he was not welcome. He looked into her eyes carefully and said, "I won't stay the night with you. You can make your own way."

After saying that, Lu Tingxu slammed the door and walked out without looking back. A low cry of surprise was heard from the yard.

Lin Wan sat quietly for a while, and when Qinglian came in, she saw her young lady sitting alone in the festive wedding room. The warm red made Lin Wan look even thinner and paler, and Qinglian couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Miss... don't be sad..." Qinglian spoke hesitantly, wanting to comfort her but not knowing what to say.

On the wedding night, what woman wouldn't be full of expectations? The prince left without showing any mercy, leaving the young lady alone in the empty room. How will the young lady face all the people in the mansion tomorrow?

Qinglian's eyes were red, but she remembered that today was the young lady's big day, so she suppressed her sadness and said with a smile: "Young lady, you are tired today, go take a shower and rest early. You have to get up early tomorrow."

Lin Wan looked at the little girl's red rabbit eyes, took her hand and said with a smile: "Silly girl, don't worry. I will never let you go hungry!"

"Miss, you are teasing me." Qinglian's face flushed. She didn't have any hobbies, but she liked to eat, so she was fat and was always laughed at by other maids.

"I just feel sorry for you, not that I'm afraid of you going hungry."

"I know, but you have to live your life on your own. Just be aware of how others treat you, and don't ask for too much. Don't worry, I know my limits."

Lin Wan knew that if she didn't make a fuss, she might be criticized by the servants and lose favor. But when Lu Tingxu's childhood sweetheart came into the family, Xiao Shi would feel sorry for her compromise.

What she wanted was Xiao's support and understanding.
