ROHYX Chapter 255 : Yuchen's Marriage (2)

In her previous life, Yuxi had always felt that Yuchen was the happiest woman in the world. She was blessed with an appearance that could cause the fall of a state and talents that surpassed others. She had the sincere love of her husband, who was nine to five reigned supreme, and both her children. Such a life could be described as perfect. Now Yuxi realised that all those beautiful things were just her imagination.

Imagination was beautiful, but the reality was cruel.

After half a sound, Yuxi lowered her voice and said, "Since someone is keeping this news from you, you should just pretend that you don't know." Yuxi said this in a very subtle way, meaning that she would dispose of it after she passed through the door. The so-called disposal was to get rid of Song Linger's baby. Whether one called it cruelty or cold-bloodedness, as far as Yuxi herself was concerned, she definitely wouldn't allow the existence of the eldest shu son unless she was unable to have children. [T/N]

Hearing this, Yuchen nodded gently and said, "Nowadays, we can only pretend that we don't know about this matter." Song Linger was carrying the royal family's flesh and blood. Thus, even if she wanted to get rid of it, she had to have a complete method. She couldn't get her hands on it herself. Otherwise, even if the 10th Prince loved her, he would not be able to save her. After all, poisoning an Imperial Son's heir was a great crime.

Yuxi smilingly said, "San Jie, I've never met Song Linger, so I don't know if she's a scheming person. This time, however, it's most likely because someone is calculating, trying to reap benefits from it." Otherwise, it would not have been possible to know this news two days before Yuchen's wedding. But it was not impossible to come to xinshou blogspot com to read this chapter than other sites, right?

Yuchen also knew that someone was scheming from behind the scene. "I know the score. You don't have to worry." It was just that she was unhappy and wanted to find someone to talk to.

Yuxi looked at Yuchen. In this world, there was no perfect person. Everyone had their own worries and miseries. "It's not good to get married since all kinds of troubles will come up. It's better to stay at home, unrestrained, doing whatever we want." When she married into the Chen family, she had to take care of her husband, serve her in-laws and get on well with her sisters-in-law.

Yuchen said, "The Chen family tradition is very righteous. You don't need to worry." The Chen family had never favoured a concubine over a wife, let alone a shu son born before a di son.

Life after marriage was indeed not a pleasant topic. Yuxi immediately changed the subject, "San Jie, this morning Shiya Biaojie told me that the Jiang family wanted to match Yurong to their second young master. Is this true?" Yuchen was much better informed than she was.

Yuchen did know about it. "Is there anything wrong with it?" If Yuchen had to say so, the Jiang family was very well off, and Jiang Hongjin was more than enough for Yurong.

Yuxi deliberately showed a hesitant look and then said as if she had made up her mind, "San Jie, I remember when we met Second Young Master Jiang by chance, he couldn't take his eyes off you at that time. I think that this person is not of good character." Yuxi was close to calling Jiang Hongjin a pervert.

Yuchen frowned at these words. "Si Mei, you are too arbitrary to judge the Second Young Master Jiang as being of bad character based on just one side." Yuchen thought that the Jiang family's marriage was a good one, as Jiang Daren had a real job, and the marriage would be a great help to their Third House.

Yuxi also knew she was a bit far-fetched in saying this, but she still wanted to make a last-ditch effort. "San Jie, the Jiang family isn't that good. Madam Jiang and Da Nainai Jiang are like water and fire, so if Yurong marries there, she will not have a good time."

Yuchen disagreed with Yuxi's words. "Whoever doesn't have one or two bad things in their family? Where can everything go as one wishes? She should endure it for two years. By then, it will be fine for her to give birth to a son and gain a firm foothold in her husband's family."

Yuxi didn't know where to start with her words. If Yurong could give birth to a son, there would be nothing to say, but Jiang Hongjin was simply an ungrateful and heartless person. He had married a girl from the Han family just to be an ornament. But there was no way for Yuxi to say this.

Yuchen saw Yuxi frowning and said, "Si Mei, marriage is a matter of parents' orders and matchmakers' words. Father and Grandmother will decide Yurong's marriage, so you don't need to worry about it." She knew why Yuxi was telling her these things, but with just a few reasons, it was impossible to dissuade her father and grandmother, even if it was her.

Yuxi was a little frustrated.

Yuchen said, "Don't think about all this nonsense. You will be married in another three months or so. During this time, let Momo Quan take good care of your health." After all, she hadn't married yet, so she was embarrassed to say that this advice was so Yuxi could conceive when she married. Yuchen was still too ashamed to say it out loud.

The two of them were chatting when Zhiqin walked in and reported, "Miss, just now the physician had visited the Third Lady and said that she is more than a month pregnant." The wedding of Yuchen was all taken care of by Qiu Shi and Ye Shi, while Wen was just playing second fiddle. Even when she was just given the job as second fiddle, she still made several mistakes. For this reason, the people of the State Residence despised her beyond measure.

In fact, it was not Wen Shi's fault. Although his father was a fourth-ranking official, Wen Shi was a shu daughter and not particularly favoured. Before she got married, her dasao took her to manage the household, familiarising herself with the process. Only after she married did she have to manage the affairs of the Third House reluctantly. As for Yuchen's wedding, she was left scratching her head.

Hearing this news, Yuxi stood up and said, "San Jie, I'll go back then." Wen Shi's pregnancy had nothing to do with her. So she could go and see her if she wanted to, but no one would say anything if she didn't.

Yuchen sent Yuxi out of the door and turned back into the house.

Seeing that Yuchen showed no sign of going to Biteng Courtyard, Zhiqin went out and told Momo Gui about it. "Is it bad for Miss not to go to Biteng Courtyard?"

Momo Gui had no feelings about Wen Shi's pregnancy. "What's wrong with it? Miss is getting married tomorrow, and there are many things to prepare for." Momo Gui couldn't stand Wen Shi in a million ways. Wen Shi only had a good face and big breasts but was nothing else.

No one reacted to Wen Shi's pregnancy. Not to mention Qiu Shi and Ye Shi had no feeling for it, even when the Old Lady heard about it, she only ordered that some nourishing herbs be sent from the storehouse, but nothing more.

Since the physician had diagnosed her as pregnant, he must have told the Old Lady about the news. She thought that someone would soon come to congratulate her, but after waiting for a long time, except for Mama Luo, who sent over the herbs, no one else came in person. Not even the maids and old women servants were sent to congratulate her.

Wen Shi was furious. She also didn't want to get pregnant. Han Jingyan didn't lack a son, and what was more, she was still his fourth wife. Hence, who cared if she was pregnant, except for herself? It was only Han Jingyan who was happy to learn of Wen Shi's pregnancy. His sons were not satisfactory, and he needed a child to carry on his legacy. [+]

Yuxi was full of worries. Not only Zisu and Caidie could see it, so did Momo Quan. Before Yuxi went to sleep, Momo Quan entered her room and asked, "Miss, do you have any worries?" Momo Quan had made an agreement with Yuxi. When Yuxi got married, she would go back to her family. Chen family was a Marquis Residence, and there were many rules. Momo Quan wanted to spend the rest of her life freely. Even if Yuxi urged her to stay, she was unwilling to follow her to the Chen family.

Yuxi pondered for a moment and spoke to Momo Quan about Yurong.

Momo Quan looked at Yuxi and said, "Miss, I know that you are kind-hearted, but you cannot interfere in this matter. Otherwise, the Third Lord and the Old Lady will think that you can't see the Fifth Miss well and deliberately want to ruin such a good marriage." Yuxi and Wu Shi had always been at odds. If Yuxi interfered in this matter, it would be easy to think that she was harbouring malicious intentions.

Yuxi laughed bitterly. "Momo, I can be sure that Jiang Hongjin is fascinated with my San Jie. For him to marry Yurong now is simply because he doesn't have good thoughts." Reason told Yuxi not to interfere in this matter, but emotionally, she couldn't go past it.

Momo Quan knew that Yuxi had many secrets, so she believed her words. "Miss, now that you have been adopted by the Main House, you shouldn't bother with the affairs of the Third House. To put it bluntly, your meddling will only make the Third Lord think you have ulterior motives, and even the Fifth Miss will not appreciate your intention." Although the Third Lord was Miss' biological father, he had always disliked Miss. Miss' rash meddling in the Fifth Miss' marriage would only make the Third Lord believe Miss had a malicious heart and could not see good happening to Yurong.

Yuxi gave out a wry smile: "I know. It's just that there is some discomfort in my heart." She knew she shouldn't have meddled in this matter, but her heart was very uncomfortable.

Momo Quan didn't quite understand why Yuxi would be uncomfortable about this, so she said, "Miss, even if what you say is true about the Second Young Master Jiang is fascinated with the Third Miss, what's the point of that? If he were to marry the Fifth Miss, would he dare to treat her poorly? The Han family is not a small family and not something they can easily bully. Moreover, the Fifth Miss is not a submissive person, and if she marries the Jiang family, she won't suffer any disadvantages."

These words enlightened Yuxi. "Sister, it is I who have entered a dead end." If Jiang Hongjin had dared not enter the bridal chamber on the wedding night, Yurong's temperament would have caused a furore. By then, it would be either a divorce or Jiang Hongjin's bowing down to her.

When Momo Quan looked at Yuxi's expression, she knew that Yuxi had thought it through. "It is good that you have thought it through. To put it bluntly, Miss, there is no need for you to be soft-hearted. The Fifth Miss is in a hostile relationship with you. Not to mention her marriage with the Jiang family, even if she is pushed into the pit fire, you shouldn't care for her."

Yuxi did not consider herself a soft-hearted person, but it was just that this matter could not be explained in a few words, so she simply avoided the subject. Deliberately curious, she asked, "Momo, from what you said, have you experienced something like this before?"

Momo Quan shook her head and said, "I have not experienced it, but it happened to someone I once knew. I had a fellow villager when I was in the palace who saved someone who was always against her out of the goodness of her heart but ended up getting her own life killed." This incident also made Momo Quan remember that not everyone could be helped.

Yuxi had not expected Momo Quan to tell her about this matter.

Momo Quan said, "Miss, don't believe those words that evil will be rewarded evil and good will be rewarded good. My fellow villager, who was so kind-hearted, died at a young age; and the one who killed my fellow villager is still alive and well."

Yuxi asked reflexively, "Is this person still in the palace?"

Momo Quan nodded and said, "She is still in the palace, now working in the Liuli Palace, one of the most favoured momo by Song Guifei's side. Miss, good people don't live long; bad people live a thousand years." After a pause, she added, "Miss, I am not saying this to ask you to be evil. I just hope that you will not be a good person without principles."

Yuxi knew that it was indeed her lack of consideration in this incident. Yuxi thanked her sincerely, "Thank you, Momo, for reminding me. I will definitely not do such a stupid thing in the future."
