trying to sayMo Yunjing frowned, the line of his jaw tightening. His dark eyes stared at the man, as if he wouldn't rest until he got an answer.Yun Rui shi didn't know what he had thought up himself....But she still didn't say it, she knew her husband wouldn't be able to give up Xiaoqin.

This statement will only damage the relationship between the two of you.

Anle Hou thought carefully about what he had now. In fact, their Anle Marquis's Mansion didn't have anything worthwhile that would make Ye Er take such a big risk.

After a moment of silence, Anlehou still stood up, “This husband will go and see Ye Er first, and see how he behaves.”

He really didn't want to end up there in the end.

Lady Hòu pursed her lips. She knew very well that Master Hòu didn't want to sacrifice Xiāo Qín, but he had forgotten that Xiāo Qín had once killed someone by mistake and was still alive.

Even now, she can still move about freely in the capital, isn't that because she sacrificed her two brothers

She owes her freedom today to her two brothers paying the price for her mistakes, doesn't she

Her two older brothers are in extreme danger outside the capital, but she is living well within the capital. As long as Ye Er truly loves her, if she marries Ye Er, she will not be in danger.

Not only would she not be in danger, but the moment she stepped through the door, she would become the mistress of the Ye household. With no in-laws to restrain her, and relying on Ye Er's affection, she could do whatever she pleased.

What does she have to complain about with this kind of life

At the same time that Xiaoqin benefited, she could also get her two older brothers a chance to return to the capital. In her view, this was a win-win opportunity.

Anyway, Xiaoqin could only obey this time.

Whether she wants to or not, this time she has to get married.

This home has done enough for her, it's time for her to give back now.

At this time, Madam Hou also stood up and said, "My lord, you have never cared much for so-called emotions, so I am afraid that when you talk to Ye Er, you will not know how to speak. Let me go with you."

Would you like to bring your wife

Anle Hou hesitated for a moment, but he ultimately agreed with his wife.

When it comes to relationships between men and women, he's never been very good at understanding them, and personally, he finds dealing with emotional matters quite bothersome.

So after he married his wife, he never thought about taking concubines again.

...it's just a hassle. ...

Now that his wife put it this way, he also felt that he probably couldn't understand Ye Er's feelings for Qin Er.

If things go awry during the negotiations, that wouldn't be good.

So, he finally nodded and agreed, "Alright, then madam, please come with me."

......

Xiaoqin, who was lost in thought at the teahouse, was unaware of the troubles that lay ahead. She and Qingya sat by the window, both silent, their gazes fixed on the scenery outside.

Seeing that Miss was in a bad mood, but she was tongue-tied, sometimes words of comfort could backfire and make her even more upset.

Now she dared not speak easily, so she could only look at her own young mistress with such distress.

If this were any other time, Xiaoqin would have immediately tried to reassure her and tell her not to worry upon seeing her like this.

Today, Xiaoqin's mind was preoccupied with thoughts of her two brothers.

She also hopes that her brothers can return to the capital. Her parents are getting older and should very much hope to see their sons every day and their grandchildren.

But over these years, her father had actually thought of many ways and pleaded with the emperor countless times, but the emperor just refused.

But she was also very clear why the emperor disagreed at that time, because Ye Er's father was still alive then, and he would certainly not allow the Anle Houfu to get their way.

Now, there's only Ye Er left in the Ye Mansion. If Ye Er were to speak up for her two brothers at this time, wouldn't the emperor be extremely likely to agree

Why would Ye Er help the Anle Marquis Mansion

I don't know if Ye Er needs anything special that is extremely difficult to obtain.

If she were to come, wouldn't she fulfill Ye Er's wish for him Wouldn't that give me leverage to make a request of him

...but how could she possibly know Ye Er's preferences ...

And what could she possibly do for them with her current abilities

Just as Xiaoqin was deep in thought, Qingya suddenly shook her arm excitedly, "Miss, miss, isn't that our Hou Mansion's carriage"

“......”

Xiaoqin followed Qingya's direction and sure enough, she saw a familiar carriage.

As the carriage drew closer, Qingya became even more excited. She looked at Xiaoqin with excitement, "Miss, did you see It's really our Houfu's carriage, and it's Madam's carriage. It seems that Madam has come in person to pick you up."

"..."

Xia Qin knew her own mother's temperament well. Even if her mother had already calmed down, she still wanted her to go home.

But her mother would absolutely not come to pick her up personally.

But this carriage was her mother's, and she found it difficult to even borrow it once. She didn't think that her mother would lend it to anyone else.

Were the people in that carriage her mother

She hadn't been that excited in a while. Unless it was something truly important, her mother wouldn't usually go out today.

If she were really in the carriage, where would she be going

But Qing Ya firmly believed that it was Madam Hou who had come in person to pick up their young mistress. She was very excited right now, but seeing her young mistress's low spirits, she was instantly puzzled, "Young Mistress, Madam Hou came in person, why don't you look happy at all"

After that, she worried that if Madam Hou arrived later and her young mistress remained like this, things would be awkward between them. So, with a heavy heart, she earnestly advised:

"Miss, between a mother and daughter there are no overnight grudges. Madam could explain that she has already shown weakness towards the young lady, and Miss, you should also give Madam a step down."

Xiaoqin sighed helplessly and poked Qingya with her arm. "She's not here to pick me up personally, is she Look, she's gone."

"...." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Qīngyá suddenly looked over and sure enough, saw that carriage drive past the teahouse's front door without stopping at all.

What on earth is going on

Xiao Qin was amused by her surprised expression. "Well, I guess my mother hasn't recovered from the shock yet. Wouldn't it be better for us to stay here for a while Why rush back home"

"There's nothing to be fussy about, now get a grip and tell someone to prepare some food. My young lady is hungry."

Qing Ya looked at her young mistress with concern, a little regretful of her actions.

If only she had known better and not told her young mistress, now look! Since the madam hasn't come, her young mistress has been waiting for nothing.

I imagine the young lady in her house is feeling quite distressed right now.

She was right; it was best for her to remain silent. Anything she said would only make things worse.

Just as Qingya withdrew her thoughts and responded, she was about to go out and call the shopkeeper to prepare the meal, when suddenly Xiaoqin's face changed, and she grabbed Qingya's arm.

Qīngyá was startled by her sudden behavior, “Little…miss, what’s wrong”

Xiaoqin's face paled slightly, "If I remember correctly, the carriage just left in the direction of Ye Mansion" away first.Does she even know what she's talking about"Xiaoye, don't listen to your aunt talk nonsense, I..."“My lord, I assure you I have not spoken out of turn. Rumors about Lord Ye and Qin’er bein...
