After being dressed as the second male, she was bent by the female lead

In the following period of time, Lian Yi and Master Ruan spread out the plan that they had discussed at the beginning.

First of all, she said she was sick at home, and rejected all kinds of gatherings, big and small, so as to pave the way for the next thing.

She had pretended to be unwell last time at Shu Qingwan's birthday party, plus she had been ill for so long before, everyone soon believed the fact that she was ill again, and there was an endless stream of people visiting her.

But Lian Yi didn't see a single person, so he stood on the Baifeng Tower with Shudie every day, watching the people coming and going to visit the sick.

She still has a reason to pretend to be sick in her heart, that is, she can hide from Shu Qingwan from now on, so as not to be disturbed by her and unable to concentrate on fulfilling the promises to Ruan Lianyi.

What she is doing now is actually similar to what Ruan Lianyi did back then, and Ruan Lianyi is the same way. Even though she misses the past so much, she still remembers her mission, unswervingly avoiding the weakness of Shu Qingwan, and concentrating on it. Follow the Ruan family's plan step by step.

But in the end, she still couldn't hold back, and defended Shu Qingwan at the Flower Appreciation Conference, so once she stumbled, she really had no chance to stand up again.

After repeating this for two or three months, winter went to spring, and in early spring, Lian Yi and Master Ruan began to implement the second step of the plan - Chongxi.

Ruan Mansion hypothesized that Ruan Linyi was seriously ill in bed and needed to marry a daughter-in-law to be happy. Moreover, according to Ruan Linyi's actual age, he was indeed past the age of marrying a wife, but he had been pretending to be seriously ill in recent years. Lian Yi is a woman, so the Ruan Mansion has never thought of this.

But in fact, there is no harm in marrying a wife. This will not only make people believe that Ruan Linyi is still alive, but also create an heir for the Ruan family. After all, if there is a husband and a wife, there will be children. This is a very normal person ethics.

Lianyi was the first to propose such a plan, and it is currently being implemented in an orderly manner.

She and Master Ruan planned to have a young wife in Ruan's mansion first, and then a young master as a matter of course. When the young master was brought up to adulthood, "Ruan Linyi" would die unexpectedly and a golden cicada would come out of her shell.

From now on, no one will know that the former Ruan Linyi was pretended by someone else.

And the Ruan Mansion also has a direct male, so the Ruan Mansion's status as an imperial merchant can naturally be passed on as steadily as Mount Tai.

It's just that the young lady of the Ruan Mansion is hard to find. The young master is easy to solve. He can secretly adopt one from the Ruan family's clan. Everything the government has planned can easily be revealed.

It's not that they haven't thought about letting someone close to them pretend, such as Shudie.

Naturally, her loyalty doesn't need to be verified, and her background is well known, and her tacit understanding with Ruan Lianyi has also been cultivated since she was a child. It is easier to play a loving couple with Lianyi.

But it's really not easy for people to believe that she will play the role.

The biggest reason is precisely because she has been with Lianyi for too long. From the outsiders' point of view, it is really unreasonable for Ruan Linyi to have a relationship with a personal servant girl at such an age.

But if the relationship between the two is not deep enough, how can the "little young master" be born quickly.

Of course, Shudie's status as a servant is also lacking for the position of "Young Madam".

But let her be a concubine, Lian Yi is reluctant, after all, the status of a concubine is quite low in the feudal society, her marriage to Lian Yi is already doomed to pay for the Ruan family all her life, and she will be a widow all her life, but in the end she only got a concubine Identity, really have to suffer a lot of grievances.

So even if Shudie expresses her willingness to marry Lianyi, to devote her whole life to the Ruan family, and to be a widow for the rest of her life, Lianyi still can't agree to it, and she can't just watch Shudie waste her youth and spend her whole life in Ruan's mansion. inside.

She only hopes that in the future when she "escapes the golden cicada" and leaves, the books and the book city can have a good home, and she can live a normal life without being a slave, maidservant or concubine, and becoming a victim of this feudal society.

In order to find a suitable candidate for the "Young Madam", Lian Yi did not stay idle during the two or three months of pretending to be sick. Instead, after the turmoil of visiting the sick passed, he took Book City to Xu Li City, which he had wanted to go before.

In addition to inspecting the shops, the main purpose is to find a candidate for "Young Madam".

The reason why they went so far is because Xuli City is far away from their Fuyan City, which can reduce the probability of this being discovered. possibility of exposure.

She searched for a long time, and finally bought a beautiful little girl from there. Not only did she give the girl a free life, but she also gave her family a large sum of settlement and hush money.

Afterwards, the two cultivated a master-servant friendship in the inn for a period of time. After confirming that the girl was honest and safe, Lian Yi took her to a distant relative's house in Fuyan City, and asked the relative to adopt her as a foster daughter, pretending to be her. His cousin is coming to marry him soon.

This girl's name is An Lian. The reason she asked Lian Yi to buy her was not only her pretty appearance, but also because she was staying in the iron cage used as a slave. When she looked up at Lian Yi for the first time, her beautiful pair of His eyes resembled the timid and desperate appearance of Xiao Shu sitting at the bottom of the trap Qingwan at that time.

Lian Yi only felt her heart tremble, and the longing that had been suppressed for many days poured out, so she bought her with money.

Later, Lian Yi took her back to the inn, and when she saw her washed up, she felt that those eyes were more similar to the young Shu Qingwan.

Lian Yi stared at the little girl obsessively for a long time, until she saw the little girl trembling in fear, she regained her senses, frowned in frustration, got up and left.

Lian Yi didn't see anything about Shu Qingwan before, and she was able to restrain her inner thoughts very well, but after seeing those eyes similar to Shu Qingwan's, she realized that her heart was empty, as if she had lost a piece. what.

That night, Lianyi dreamed for the first time that she was with Shu Qingwan after she came to this world, and it was the scene of being held down by Shu Qingwan in the ice spring.

She was still struggling, but her heart was not as strong as the initial struggle. Then she woke up from the dream, and she felt as if the world had collapsed in half.

For this reason, she allowed herself to stay with An Lian all day long, and then stared blankly at An Lian from time to time, allowing the unknown emotions in her heart to flow freely.

Sure enough, at night, she dreamed about that scene again.

Although the process this time is still the same process, the struggle is still struggling, but the self in the dream is unexpectedly peaceful, opening his eyes calmly, watching the other party's emotional expression, smelling the cold fragrance from the other party's body, letting the other party Grind with yourself.

When she dreamed of this scene for the third time, she simply stopped struggling and closed her eyes directly, feeling the other party's desire for her, and quietly letting go of her suppressed emotions.

She didn't know what she was still unwilling to do. She had clearly chosen her path, and she also thought about it clearly, why she was still so uncomfortable.

In fact, she has long understood that choosing the last "golden cicada escapes its shell" is tantamount to choosing to die in the hearts of everyone, including Shu Qingwan, so why should she embarrass herself like this.

She is not Ruan Lianyi, after all, she will not be able to walk with Shu Qingwan.

Lian Yi let herself go for a few days, but in the end she still packed up her emotions, got rid of distracting thoughts, and carried things through to the end.

After the two cultivated their relationship for many days, Lian Yi told An Lian part of the truth.

Of course, she didn't tell everything about the family. She couldn't put the whole Ruan Mansion's life on a person she just met. Although An Lian is obedient and well-behaved, and looks gentle, but there is no guarantee that one day , will bite Ruan Mansion back.

Lian Yi just made up a relatively reasonable story to round everything up.

She didn't want anyone to die for this plan, including this quiet and innocent little girl.

So this story is of course good for An Lian. Lian Yi's consideration is that when An Lian is worthless to the Ruan Mansion in the future, all she knows will be some insignificant secrets that won't threaten her life.

What's more, for a person like her with a poor background, if she is willing, the wealth and honor that Lian Yi gives her in this life will not be regarded as a bad treatment.

First of all, Lian Yi honestly told An Lian her real identity, and assumed that she was just passing through here on business, and bought her because of her pity.

Secondly, Lian Yi claimed that he was not in good health, and told An Lian the ins and outs of his illness.She also told her that her family forced her to marry a girl who liked her to make her happy, but her heart was not in the love of her children, and she was afraid that she would disappoint the good girl's wishes, and now she was being forced to marry and was in a state of distress.

In the end, he sincerely asked An Lian to cooperate with her in a play, pretending to marry her to cheer her up, and satisfy the wish of the old man in the family.If she is willing, I can give her the glory and wealth of a lifetime, and if she doesn't want to in the future, the two can also separate.

What Lian Yi said was not to lie to An Lian. If An Lian didn't want it in the future, she would have another "accident" and "kill" the young lady.

The purpose of her and Master Ruan is to cultivate a grandson of the Ruan family, and the young lady is just a cover. When the young master has one, it doesn't matter whether the young lady is there or not.

Lian Yi saw that An Lian was a little sluggish, as if she was frightened by herself, so she went all out, and took another dose of medicine to lie to An Lian that she didn't care about the love of her children, but in fact it was because she couldn't do things, so there was nothing she could do. Give other girls the pleasure of the boudoir, and ask An Lian to pretend to marry her, so as to cut off those girls' thoughts, so as not to delay other girls.

An Lian was deeply impressed by Lianyi's sincerity. Coupled with her gratitude for Lianyi's life-saving grace, she knelt down and agreed without saying a few words, and vowed to be loyal to Lianyi forever and would not use these Scandal," told others.

Only then did Lian Yi feel relieved, and told her the plan and plans for the future.

After returning, Lian Yi first arranged for An Lian to be a distant cousin, she took off her slave status, and put her in a distant relative's home in Fuyan City to teach etiquette, and then went home to communicate the ins and outs of the matter to several important people in the family. After getting angry, he finally spread the news that Ruan Linyi was going to marry a wife, and then fixed an auspicious day to start making wedding invitations.

All the things were done in one go, and there was joy everywhere, as if Lian Yi could really marry a wife.

Things went so smoothly, Lian Yi happily slept at home for a day and a night, and when she woke up the next morning, an unexpected person came to the Ruan Mansion—the third female Liang Sansan.
