Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

Chapter 216: The diligent maidservant vs. the playful young master (2)

Yan Xi pulled himself out and knelt in the hall to pay his respects.

"In reply to the old lady, Yanxi is willing to follow Miss Youran to the Beijing Marquis's Mansion."

"Okay, Yanxi, I was right about you."

The old lady stood up and asked Nanny Zhou to help Yanxi up. She then held her hand and said with relief:

"Good child, I will not treat you unfairly. Zhou Pan, go and give Yan Xi's indenture to her, as well as the few brightly colored cloths I just got."

"Yanxi, since you and Youran are going to be together for a long time, you can go directly to her place tomorrow and get to know each other better."

"Let Madam Zhou take you there when the time comes. You haven't had much rest today, so go back and have a good rest now."

"Yes."

Yan Xi took over a wooden tray, on which were placed several pieces of silk cloth of excellent texture.

On top was a letter containing a contract of sale, and next to it was a small bag of silver coins.

With joy on his face, Yan Xi took the plate, bowed, left the inner room and returned to his own room.

The envelope contained her indentures. When she had time, she would go to the government to have her slave status cancelled. After two years, she would be truly free.

After the happy mood passed, the long-lost feeling of fatigue came over Yan Xi. He packed his things properly and lay down on the bed.

While closing my eyes to rest, I recalled the plot I had received.

This is a story set in ancient times with some taboo elements and a tragic ending.

The male protagonist is Su Qian, the second son of Bei Jinghou and the eldest princess.

Because he is the youngest child and there is a big age gap between him and his older brother, he has been spoiled by his parents since he was young.

He has no burden, and although he has not learned the dissolute lifestyle of those playboys, he is also one of the most unrestrained and playful young men in the capital.

The heroine is the only daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, Ji Youran.

She was weak, so she was very fond of Su Qian, who was full of energy and enthusiasm.

But I have feelings for you, but you are heartless.

It just so happened that her family was discussing a marriage for her, and the one they were most satisfied with was the Marquis of Beijing Mansion. Originally, they were talking about the eldest son, but Ji Youran didn't hear it all and thought it was the person she admired.

She happily made an appointment with Su Qian to meet her.

At that time, Su Qian liked to play and was not interested in romance.

Therefore, not only did he not understand Ji Youran's hint of affection, he also revealed the fact that his brother was engaged to her.

Ji Youran cried bitterly when she got home. In her more than ten years of life, this was the first time that things did not go as she wished.

Her marriage could not be delayed any longer, and Ji Youran knew in her heart that Su Qian would not marry her, so she gritted her teeth and agreed to the marriage with Su Qian's elder brother Su Bo.

Although she agreed to marry Su Bo, her married life was not smooth.

Su Bo practiced martial arts since he was a child and went to the battlefield at the age of eighteen. He was away for ten years. It was also because of this reason that he did not get married until he was twenty-eight years old.

Twenty-eight is too old for Ji Youran.

The maturity, stability and pampering that her grandmother praised were, to her, just a pool of stagnant water that could not stir up any waves.

Ji Youran, who is bound by his body, desires vitality the most.

Su Po is a quiet and taciturn person, but he has a strong ability to discern other people's minds.

Su Po could understand why his wife, who was ten years younger than him, didn't like him.

He gave in everywhere, but Ji Youran not only refused to consummate the marriage with him, she was even unwilling to live in the same room with him and avoided him everywhere.

No matter how good-tempered Su Bo was, he would not feel comfortable, so he took the initiative to ask the emperor for permission and went to the border again, a place that could bring him peace.

It's also to make both of them feel less awkward.

Ji Youran didn't understand his intentions. Without the annoying person, his restless heart began to become restless.

At first, she still knew her limits and would only find excuses to meet Su Qian more often.

But later, when the eldest princess began to worry about the marriage of her playful youngest son, she could no longer sit still.

Since his brother was not at home, Su Qian had to take care of the women in the family more, which made it very convenient for Ji Youran to do things.

She disrupted Su Qian's banquet to meet his wife, and also put Su Qian's marriages on hold time and time again.

Later, due to some changes, his eldest brother Su Bo, who was planning to return to the capital, was assassinated and killed on the way, and Su Qian had to support the entire marquis' mansion.

Ji Youran also stayed in the mansion, accompanying him silently.

As time passed, Su Qian began to tolerate Ji Youran being around him.

He had no interest in bringing up the delayed marriage again, and the two of them lived on each other in the mansion.

One of them will not remarry, and the other will not take another wife. For Ji Youran, even though they are not actually together, it is the best ending.

Besides, who can say that this is not an alternative way to be together?

This plot seems to be fine, but the key is that when it actually happened, when the eldest brother died and Su Qian was in depression for a while and tried hard to support the Marquis' Mansion, something unexpected happened.

Su Qian gradually gained power in the court. When everything was going well, he did something shocking - he divorced his brother's wife.

When the eldest princess was bedridden due to excessive worry, Ji Youran took good care of everyone in the mansion, and did not remarry after her husband's death.

Su Qian did such a thing, even divorcing his wife instead of a divorce, and such an action made everyone despise him.

He did not explain the reason for his doing so. Outsiders only knew that Ji Youran silently accepted the result. However, he died not long after returning to the Shangshu Mansion. It was said that it was due to excessive worry.

The hero's reputation declines, the heroine dies of illness, and this ending is simply a mess, so the story has to be restarted again and again.

"Something strange."

Li Mo knew that there must be some things that were not stated in the plot, but this would not affect her progress in completing the task perfectly.

Let her see her identity this time - a top-ranking maidservant beside the old lady in the Shangshu Mansion.

Yan Xi, 20 years old, is steady and has his own ideas. He is an ordinary person who sells himself, but in ten years he has become one of the most trusted subordinates of the old lady in the Shangshu Mansion. He is quite capable.

But she is not a scheming person. She works hard to climb up just to make her life better.

Later, at the request of the old lady, Yan Xi followed Ji Youran into the Beijing Marquis' Mansion. Yan Xi was very low-key, so he left the mansion before Ji Youran was divorced.

With the money he earned from working hard in the Marquis's Mansion, he opened a restaurant and did not get involved in the right and wrong of the people there.

"I see, that's a good status."

Tomorrow she will meet the young lady she will follow in the future. As Yan Xi has risen to the top through her own abilities, she naturally will not go back to her room and have a good rest as the old lady said.

Yan Xi lay on the bed with his eyes closed for a while, then immediately got up and packed his luggage.

Everything was ready, and she was so busy that it was late at night before she went to bed to rest.
