Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Xiao Yan'an even doubted himself, did He'er not like him?

Until the day of her death in her previous life, He'er just said that she did not regret marrying him. However, this has nothing to do with love or not!

Xiao Yan'an felt extremely uncomfortable when he thought that Ji Chuhe might fall in love with someone else.

No, he would never accept it.

"Prince, do you have anything else to say?"

"I just want to stay with you for a while." Xiao Yan'an said pitifully.

He slowly reached out his hand and held Ji Chuhe's hand, "He'er, please don't chase me away, okay? Just let me stay here quietly with you for a while."

Ji Chuhe quickly pulled his hand back, not daring to look Xiao Yan'an in the eye again.

I don’t know why, but the skin on the back of my hand felt numb when Xiao Yan’an touched it, and my heartbeat accelerated involuntarily because of this feeling.

Xiao Yan'an just looked at Ji Chuhe.

He just didn't believe that Ji Chuhe could be so hard-hearted as to drive him away.

Normally when he was like this, even his mother, who was furious, would find some maternal love in him, and would be a little gentler when she hit him.

"I, I still need to read." Ji Chuhe opened a book to hide his panic.

"I will never disturb you, I promise." Xiao Yan'an showed a bright smile.

Ji Chuhe lowered her head and flipped through the book, ignoring him.

Normally, once she got a book, her attention was entirely focused on the content, but today she just couldn't calm down.

Although Xiao Yan'an didn't disturb her.

But he keeps staring at her!

Who can stand being stared at like this all the time?

Xiao Yan'an was also thinking about it in his mind.

"He'er, it seems like you're reading a medical book today, but do you recognize all the herbs in the book?"

"I don't know, I just feel that learning more things is always useful." Ji Chuhe responded honestly.

"I know a place where there are many medicinal herbs. The teacher taught me that I should apply what I have learned. How about you take this book with you and I will take you to that place. We can learn and find herbs at the same time, okay?"

Ji Chuhe was deeply moved by Xiao Yanan's proposal.

She had always wanted to do this, but in the county magistrate's mansion, she didn't even dare to think about it.

"I'll talk to my mother, she will definitely agree for us to go. Bring some guards with you, and there will be absolutely no problem with safety."

Xiao Yan'an's words resolved Ji Chuhe's worries.

"If you want to go, we'll leave tomorrow."

"Where is that place?" Ji Chuhe couldn't help but ask.

"Yun Ze Mountain." No matter how Chu He went to Yun Ze Mountain in the previous century, Xiao Yan'an must accompany her there in this life.

He wanted to be heavily involved in her life.

"Yun Ze Mountain!" Ji Chuhe was a little excited. She really wanted to go to this place.

"It's settled. I'll go tell mother. You prepare your things. We'll be gone for maybe ten days or half a month." After Xiao Yan'an finished speaking, he stood up and left.

After all, they are two half-grown children now, and they must inform the princess if they go on a long journey.

Ji Chuhe looked at Xiao Yan'an's back, not sure whether the princess would agree with them going so far away.

However, she still had a little expectation in her heart.

In the evening, Aunt Qingluo from the Princess' Palace came over.

"Aunt Qingluo."

"Miss He'er." Qingluo knelt towards Ji Chuhe, "The prince said he wanted to go to Yunze Mountain with you, and the princess specially asked me to come here to accompany you. Nanny Ji is old and stays at the mansion, and the people around you are young, so the princess is worried."

"Aunt Qingluo, does mother really agree that we can go to Yunze Mountain?" Ji Chuhe couldn't believe the news.

"Yes, I have asked someone to prepare the travel supplies. Miss, please go to bed early today. We will set off early tomorrow morning." Qingluo responded with a smile.

"Okay, okay, I will definitely go to bed early tonight." Ji Chuhe nodded repeatedly.

Qingluo's eyes were full of smiles.

If the princess saw Miss He'er like this, I wonder how much she would like her. This is how a child behaves. She laughs when she is happy and cries when she is sad.

Thinking of this, Qingluo felt a little distressed again.

The main reason is that Miss He'er had a very hard time in the county magistrate's mansion.

Otherwise, children at such a young age wouldn't be like this.

Everyone in the palace knew the news that Ji Chuhe and Xiao Yan'an were traveling together.

This also directly established Ji Chuhe's status in the palace.

It seems that the princess really likes Ji Chuhe, and the servants naturally treat her as the master rather than a guest living in the mansion.

When Concubine Xu heard the news, she was furious.

"The princess must have done it on purpose. I wanted to bring Xu Yan'er over to accompany the prince, so she followed my example and brought Ji Chuhe over. This Ji Chuhe coaxed the prince around, and now the prince doesn't even come to my place!"

"Dona Fei, what should we do? Now that the princess and the prince have repaired their relationship, all your previous efforts will be in vain." The nanny was anxious.

"Impossible! I will never let this happen!" Concubine Xu felt very uneasy.

She knew that she had no status at all in this palace.

If her son doesn't treat her closely, it's even less likely that her daughter-in-law will treat her sincerely.

She could only focus on her grandson.

"Go find my nephew, I have something to say to him." Concubine Xu ordered.

"Yes." Nanny went to arrange it immediately.

When Concubine Xu came from the imperial capital, she brought her only relative with her.

She had a bad life in the palace as the late emperor never promoted her. It was only after the late emperor died and the emperor succeeded to the throne that her son was made a king and had a fiefdom that the emperor promoted her to the rank of concubine dowager.

Her nephew originally lived in the West Market of the imperial capital. He had no proper job and did a lot of petty thefts.

After following her to Huaiyang, she deducted some money from the monthly salary given to her by the princess and from various expenses in her own palace, and gave it to her nephew, asking him to do some business in Huaiyang city.

I heard that business is doing pretty good.

What Concubine Xu didn't know was that as soon as her nephew arrived in Huaiyang, he would rise to a higher level with her.

A burst of angry cursing was heard from a small courtyard with two entrances.

"You useless thing! The Concubine Dowager has taken you into the Prince's mansion, but you failed to catch his eye and were kicked out." It was Concubine Dowager Xu's nephew Xu Ergou who was scolding Xu Yan'er.

"That's right, you're useless!" Xu Yan'er's elder brother Xu Gui also scolded, "I raised you for nothing. All you do all day is eat, drink, buy clothes, and put on makeup!"

"Shut up! How good are you!" Xu Yan'er cursed back.

"How dare you talk back! I'm going to smash your mouth." Xu Gui went up to grab Xu Yan'er, but Xu Yan'er picked up a broom and swung it at Xu Gui.

There is no way a child raised in such a family would be truly weak.

Xu Yan'er's weakness was just a show for the prince to see.
