Raising a concubine under her nose, the reborn mistress marries the prince

Chapter 34 Pretending to be sick

After hearing what Jiang Chuwei said, Lu Yanling returned to Lingyuan nervously.

She was really at her wit's end.

She wanted to seek help from her grandmother, but her grandmother was in a difficult condition and could not even protect herself.

Aunt Yao was waiting for her.

"How is it? Did the Crown Prince's wife say she would help us?" Aunt Yao's eyes were full of anxiety.

"She told her daughter not to leave the yard and to pretend to be sick if the lady came to call her."

"That's it……"

"Ah."

"You can pretend to be sick for a while, but you can't pretend to be sick forever. What should I do?" Aunt Yao was very anxious.

"Maybe sister-in-law is too busy to handle it herself?" Lu Yanling said uncertainly.

"Why?"

"Isn't she sad that the prince has a illegitimate child?"

Lu Yanling actually had no hope. What the Crown Prince's wife was facing now was not much better than hers.

When her aunt asked her to go find the Crown Prince's wife, she felt that her sister-in-law had been bullied by the Marquis's Mansion.

With her mistress and her children all under her nose, she has no time to care about other people's affairs.

Besides, she is the daughter of the Marquis.

She thought it would be a bad idea for her to cause trouble.

At worst, I'll just die.

But the aunt said she would not go, and she went to find the Crown Prince's wife herself.

She was afraid that her aunt would just cry and upset the prince's wife.

But I didn't expect that I would just cry when I was in front of the Crown Prince's wife.

"Let's just do as my sister-in-law said and pretend to be sick first."

"How about I go and beg the Marquis. You are his daughter, and he can't let his wife do whatever she wants."

"Mom, have you forgotten how your brother died?"

Aunt Yao collapsed like a deflated ball.

Aunt Yao has a son.

When he was three years old, he caught a cold and died.

It was the lady who forbade anyone to call a doctor, and the court physician was also sent to the countryside by her.

A child died after having a high fever for three days.

Aunt Yao went to tell the Marquis, who had just returned after playing outside for seven days, crying.

The Marquis said, "If she's dead, she's dead. You still have a daughter, right? Just take good care of her."

When Aunt Yao heard this, she was so shocked that she couldn't move.

She forgot how to react.

That was their own son! A living being.

The Marquis just brushed it off as lightly as if a dog or a cat had died.

"Aunt, do you think the Marquis cares about his daughter's life or death?" Lu Yanling asked.

Seeing that the aunt didn't say anything, "We'll just listen to our eldest sister-in-law. Since she told us to wait, we'll just trust her, okay?"

She was really afraid that her aunt would try all kinds of medical treatments out of desperation and end up making things worse.

"Okay, Auntie will listen to you." The mother and daughter had no choice but to wait quietly.

"Madam Qiu! Send a few servants to guard Lingyuan at night and tell them to hide."

Although it is not certain whether Butcher Zhang will break into Lingyuan at night, it is better to send someone to keep an eye on him just in case.

Jiang Chuwei remembered that a few days before Lu Yanling jumped into the well in her previous life, rumors spread that she had been defiled.

At that time, she herself began to be bedridden.

I don't have the time to meddle in other people's affairs.

It seems that this matter was suppressed by Chen Yulan.

When the maid Ah Xiang came to invite Lu Yanling to go to Jinfu Hall, Lu Yanling was sleeping on the couch.

Ah Xiang looked at the person lying on the couch and said, "Today, Miss Third will crawl to Jinfu Hall even if she has to."

Ah Xiang's nose turned up in dismay. The Third Young Lady's life in the Marquis's Mansion was not as dignified as that of a maid like her.

She was a second-class maid in Jinfu Hall and did not need to act respectful in front of the Third Miss.

Aunt Yao quickly smiled and said, "Sister Ling is ill. When she gets better, I will take her to apologize to Madam."

"You, you talk as if the lady likes you very much." Ah Xiang sneered.

Aunt Yao pushed her daughter on the couch, but Lu Yanling did not move.

Aunt Yao burst into tears: "What should I do? My poor Lingjie, please wake up soon!"

Ah Xiang said impatiently, "When you wake up, go see the Madam."

After saying that, he kicked the chair hard: "Bad luck!"

Seeing Ah Xiang leave, Lu Yanling immediately stood up, not looking sick at all: "What does Chen want to see me for?"

"Third sister!" A female voice sounded outside the door.

"Fifth sister! What are you doing here?" Lu Yanling was surprised.

Chen didn't want her concubines' daughters to be too close to each other and always prevented them from interacting with each other.

Lu Yanping is the Marquis's fifth daughter, born to Aunt Wang.

The second and fourth children died of illness, and the sixth and seventh children are still young.

Only the third and fifth daughters are of similar age.

They don't usually interact with each other.

Aunt Wang was even more cowardly, and she dared not go west if Chen said east.

She had three daughters to look after, so how could she dare to make the lady angry?

The younger daughter's mother was beaten to death by Chen.

Aunt Yao looked outside the yard to make sure no one saw it.

"What are you doing here at this hour?"

Lu Yanping was so speechless after hearing what Aunt Yao said.

"Aunt, please go outside and keep an eye on things. I want to talk to my fifth sister."

Aunt Yao didn't say anything else, she was just afraid of getting into trouble.

"Third sister! I just found out that mother wants to marry you to an old man." Lu Yanping's eyes were red.

"Yes, what should I do?" Lu Yanling's tears fell again.

"I went to see the old man secretly. He was fat and had big ears, like a pig." Ping Jie said as she gestured.

"Where did you see that?"

"He's in the side hall. My mother is the one who entertained him personally. He said he came to deliver a betrothal gift. My mother was very happy. He said he wanted to see you. Someone will come to call you soon."

"A Xiang has been here, I didn't go."

"Third sister! How dare you disobey mother?"

"I'm sick and in a coma, how do I go?"

Lu Yanling knew that the fifth sister was a good person, so she did not hide it.

"Third sister! You must refuse. That man is simply a toad wanting to eat swan flesh. He has grown into that kind of person and is almost the same age as father. How can mother do this to you?"

After saying this, Lu Yanping started crying.

If the third sister married a man like that, she would be the next one.

With Chen's personality, it's hard to tell who to marry her to.

"Third sister! You must not agree to this."

"Yeah!" Lu Yanling helped her sister wipe her tears.

"Sister, don't worry, I won't do what she wants."

At worst, I’ll just die!

"Third sister!"

The two sisters hugged each other and cried.

Aunt Yao also started crying.

She couldn't protect her son or her daughter in her lifetime.

Better to die.
