Taking space to escape famine, Sister Wan killed everyone along the way

"Mom, please don't be angry first. Let me explain it to you slowly, okay?" Hou Lili was also afraid. Her voice softened. She leaned over to the door and pleaded softly, "Mom, can you please open the door and let me out, or come in? It's not nice to talk like this."

The county magistrate's wife was impatient and said, "Let's put it this way, to make it short." Everyone around here was trustworthy, so she didn't ask anyone to avoid her. Besides, these were all people the county magistrate had sent to watch Hou Lili. Even if she ordered them to leave, they would not leave.

Hou Lili knew that she had no choice but to explain everything honestly at this time, otherwise, even her mother, who loved her closest, might abandon her.

"When I was walking down the street before, the prince was walking in front of me. Later, he turned around and smiled at me very gently. I could tell from his eyes that he liked me. Otherwise, even if I liked the prince before, I wouldn't be so obsessed with him.

Another time, I was choosing rouge in a rouge shop, and the prince took the initiative to talk to me, asking me what kind of rouge girls might like! You said there were servants in the shop, and the prince asked me instead of others. What does that mean if he doesn't like me?

Later, I confessed to the prince, and he said he wasn't my ideal type and hoped I would think it over and give up the idea. He also said it was for my own good!

Speaking of this, Hou Lili's face turned red. Thinking of the prince's tall figure, handsome face, gentle temperament, and large family, her heart beat unconsciously.

"Is that all?" The county magistrate's wife felt something was amiss. How could she be sure that the prince liked her daughter? It was all her fault for being so blinded by happiness that she hadn't asked properly and had even encouraged her daughter to hold on to such an outstanding man as the prince.

"Isn't this enough? I think the prince loves me so much that he tried so hard to talk to me. Look, he even said it was for my own good. I think the prince must think that these things should be discussed by men, so he rejected me!"

"Hou Lili, are you crazy?" The county magistrate's wife couldn't stand it any longer. "These are obviously normal actions. How can they prove that the prince likes you?

What kind of status does the prince have? If he really liked someone, do you think he would be so reserved? It's been three months since I heard you say the prince liked you. In total, you and the prince have only had contact these three times. Do you think this is what it would be like to really like someone? When will your mind return to normal?"

She was a little angry. Now she finally understood why the master was so angry just now. She couldn't stand looking at such a stupid daughter.

"Mother, what do you mean?" Hou Lili was also angry. "You said before that your daughter is capable and can even charm a big shot like the prince. Why are you suddenly scolding me now? The prince likes me. Otherwise, why would he ask me what kind of rouge girls like? Why didn't he ask the servant if he had one? He was actively approaching me, just to talk to me!"

The county magistrate's wife felt a bit of a headache, and suddenly she regretted that she had spoiled her daughter too much over the years, which led to her daughter becoming so naive and overly foolish. With her current personality, she would not be able to live a good life even if she married into the Wan family.

"Let me ask you, the first time the prince turned around and smiled at you, did he talk to you?" He felt a little powerless, waved his hand, and asked his personal maid to bring a chair for him. He would probably have to spend the afternoon here to enlighten this stupid and ignorant daughter.

With so many people on the street, why did the prince suddenly turn around and smile? Moreover, the prince and her daughter had never crossed paths before.

Hou Lili: “No.”

The County Magistrate's Wife: ...As expected, I shouldn't have held out any hope for this foolish daughter! "Then how can you be sure the prince is smiling at you? What if he's smiling at someone else?"

"Impossible!! Absolutely impossible!! There were so many people on the street, and I was the prettiest. If the prince wasn't smiling at me, how could he be smiling at that peasant girl?"

"A peasant girl? You mean that Qin Wanwan was also present?" The county magistrate's wife seemed to understand.

"The second time you said the prince asked you what kind of rouge girls like, what happened after that? Did he give you one? Or, in other words, did he talk to you again after that?"

Hou Lili was still struggling with the previous question, but when she heard the question, she answered reflexively, "No."

"Look, you said it yourself, there are only servants in the store, and servants don't know as much as a woman like you who buys rouge so often. So the prince might just want to ask you what kind of rouge girls like. He might be buying it as a gift for someone else!

Do you understand? You are just a person who answers questions, you are nothing! "The county magistrate's wife was speechless. This silly girl was completely hopeless, so she spoke without mercy!

As for the last question, she didn't need to ask it, as the prince had already clearly refused. But considering her master's loyalty to King Zhenbei, he didn't let a girl lose face, so he said it so tactfully, but it was misunderstood by his silly daughter.

Hou Lili wanted to refute, but her mother did not give her the chance.

"Hou Lili, it was my fault before. I didn't educate you well, so you became arrogant, conceited, domineering, and self-righteous.

You are indeed good-looking, but not to the extent of being a goddess from heaven. This is the border, and due to the climate, people here generally have rough skin. But you have been raised in seclusion since childhood, and you have to use good things to maintain your appearance. Your parents are willing to spend money on you and let you dress up, which makes you look more outstanding. But compared with those young ladies in the capital, you are just a beautiful girl from a small family.

Before, mother was overwhelmed and blinded by maternal love and vanity. She thought you were the most beautiful child in this border area and had been raised with great care since childhood. It was natural for the prince to like you. But now mother suddenly realized that she was wrong!

Lili, I'm sorry, but you have grown up now and your temperament has been formed. But I still hope you can understand that you can't be too fanciful about some things. No matter what happens, you can't always think about it in terms of selfishness. You should think about more possibilities, both good and bad.

Just like the incident with the prince this time, we really made a big mistake. The prince doesn't like you, and even when he knew that you liked him and harassed Qin Wanwan, he was still very angry.

If it weren't for your father's sake, perhaps your fate would be even worse. Your father has really put in a lot of effort for you, carefully selecting the Wan family. You should marry into the Wan family honestly and be a Wan family wife. Don't be so willful like you are now. There is always a difference between your husband's family and your own family."
