Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

Most importantly, if marrying his niece into the family could appease Jiang Chunxi's anger, then perhaps Jiang Chunxi would not target the Ningxin Marquis's Mansion elsewhere, giving them a moment to breathe and preventing them from worrying that one day Jiang Chunxi would whisper in the emperor's earl ...

“Father, let’s do as my sister says and let me marry my cousin!” Li Renhuai said. “My sister’s life is in the hands of that vile woman Jiang Chunxi, and we can only let her do as she pleases. As long as my sister can keep her life, do we, the Marquis of Ningxin, have any chance of making a comeback?”

"Ha! You talk as if you're so capable," Father Li said, increasingly disliking his son. "Just do as our daughter says! But the wedding must be as low-key as possible. There's no need to send out invitations or host a banquet. Just arrange a sedan chair to quietly carry Xue Xuerou into the house."

“Father,” Li Renhuai said with dissatisfaction, “my cousin is marrying me, not becoming my concubine. How can we just quietly bring her into the house? Even if we can’t have a grand banquet, we should at least follow the proper etiquette and protocol for a wedding!”

"Shut up!" That was Li's mother's voice. "It's already good enough that you were allowed to marry that slut Xue Xuerou. What more do you want in terms of etiquette and ceremony? Aren't you afraid that a grand wedding will anger Jiang Chunxi again?"

"After all, Jiang Chunxi wants you to marry Xue Xuerou so that Xue Xuerou will suffer all kinds of torment after marrying into the Ningxin Marquis's mansion. Under such circumstances, do you think Jiang Chunxi would be happy for Xue Xuerou to marry into the Ningxin Marquis's mansion in a grand and spectacular manner?"

"Renhuai!" Madam Li looked heartbroken. "What kind of time is this? Can't you put all that love and affection out of your head? Do you really want to push our Ningxin Marquis's Mansion into an abyss for the sake of a woman before you regret it?"

Li Renhuai opened his mouth as if to say something, but swallowed his words back down. After all, his mother's words were not an exaggeration, and he certainly did not want to lose everything for his cousin and plunge the entire Ningxin Marquis's Mansion into utter ruin.

"That's settled then," Father Li said decisively. "Just pick a day and bring Xue Xuerou into the house."

"I understand," Madam Li rubbed her temples, her head aching. "I'll have someone find a date soon and bring Xue Xuerou in as soon as possible."

Li Renhuai: "Father, Mother, if there's nothing else, then I'll take my leave."

The father waved his hand impatiently, telling his son to get lost. He really didn't want to look at his son anymore.

Li Renhuai bowed to his parents, then turned and left the mansion.

As for where to go, isn't that obvious?

Of course, I'll go find Xue Xuerou.

"What?" Xue Xuerou looked at Li Renhuai in disbelief, and then tears fell down her face. "Cousin, I've already fallen to this state. Now I can't even go back to the Xue family. I can only be placed in this house by you without any status or identity. But why won't Jiang Chunxi let me go?"

“That bitch has a vicious heart, so of course she won’t let you off easily,” Li Renhuai said, wiping Xue Xue Rou’s eyes. “Xue Rou, don’t be afraid or worry about anything. I’m here. I will definitely not let you suffer too much. Besides, your mother has loved you so much since you were little. How could she really bring herself to torture you to death?”
