[Marriage first, love later] She is happy after marrying a widower

When Song Yanzhi heard Baoqin's words, her brows knitted together slightly, a trace of doubt flashed across her eyes, and she asked softly, "Did she say anything?"

There was a hint of helplessness in his tone. After all, Xu Nian's style of doing things was sometimes really confusing.

"She said that the young master was injured because of her, and she felt bad and wanted to take care of him personally."

Baoqin quickly answered truthfully, her brows furrowed, and she obviously felt that Xu Nian's idea was inappropriate.

"How can this be so shameless? She's a girl, how can she take care of a man? We don't mean to blame her, there's no need to do this."

Song Yanzhi raised her voice slightly, her face full of disapproval. In this era of strict feudal ethics, the separation of men and women was an extremely important matter. Xu Nian's idea was really against the rules.

"I've tried to persuade her, but she just won't leave." Baoqin shook her head helplessly. She tried to persuade her in every possible way, and her lips were almost worn out, but Xu Nian seemed to be determined and stood there motionless. She was really at her wit's end.

"Go tell her that this doesn't make sense and let her go." Song Yanzhi frowned slightly and her tone became serious. At the moment, she could only let Baoqin persuade Xu Nian again to give up this ridiculous idea.

"Yes." Baoqin responded obediently, then turned and walked towards where Xu Nian was.

"Miss Xu, the master said this is unreasonable. How can you, an unmarried girl, serve a man? It's not good for your reputation."

Baoqin looked at Xu Nian, who was standing in the snow with his nose red from the cold, and said expressionlessly that she was just a slave whose duty was to convey the master's orders, so she did not have the slightest sympathy at the moment and just mechanically repeated Song Yanzhi's words.

Xu Nian bit her cherry-pink lips tightly, almost tearing them apart. A subtle hint of stubbornness flashed across her beautiful eyes.

Then she took a deep breath, and as if she had made up her mind, she suddenly raised her voice and shouted in an unusually loud and unwavering tone.

"I don't care about those so-called great principles! I don't care about whether my reputation is good or not! The young master was injured because of me, so no matter what, I must take good care of him personally!"

Her voice echoed in the cold night sky, revealing an unquestionable determination, as if she had made up her mind and no one could persuade her.

Baoqin frowned slightly, feeling a little annoyed, but she still controlled her temper and spoke slowly.

"Miss Xu, please stop making things difficult for me! This is an order from the master himself, and I'm just following it. You're forcing me like this, and it really puts me in a dilemma."

After saying this, Baoqin shook her head slightly, turned around and was about to leave.

She thought to herself that she had said everything she needed to say. If Xu Nian still refused to change his ways and refused to listen to her advice, then even if she wanted to help, she would probably be powerless.

Xu Nian's delicate eyes were filled with tears, and the crystal tears rolled back and forth in her eye sockets, as if they would burst out like a dam at any time.

I saw her biting her lips tightly, and her silver teeth made a slight sound when biting, and then she fell to her knees with a "thump".

She clutched Baoqin's skirt tightly with both hands, her voice choked and trembling as she cried with endless pleading and sorrow, "Miss Baoqin, please have mercy on me and let me stay to take care of the young master! If I leave like this, my heart will be tormented by guilt forever, and I will never be able to overcome this hurdle! Please have mercy on me and grant my request!"

At this moment, Xu Nian's face was covered with tear marks and his expression was extremely sad. Even a heartless person would be moved by her pitiful appearance.

Baoqin sighed helplessly: "Miss Xu, it's not that I'm unaccommodating, it's really..." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the sound of footsteps.

"Miss Xu, you'd better stand up. If others see you, they might think our Han family bullied you."

Song Yanzhi came over in person. She looked at Xu Nian who was kneeling on the ground, sighed softly and said.

In fact, Song Yanzhi usually likes Xu Nian very much. She still remembers that when Xu Nian lived in the yard, she was well-behaved, cute, sweet-mouthed, and very likable, just like a girl next door.

But tonight, what Xu Nian did did make her feel a little inappropriate, but she also thought that it might be because Xu Nian had been locked up in the carriage for too long and came down for a walk, and walked a little too far, so this happened. Xu Nian had no ill will towards Da Wa, he was just too willful.

Seeing that Song Yanzhi came to say it in person, Xu Nian couldn't kneel any longer, so he stood up and said "yes" softly. However, there was still a trace of unwillingness and stubbornness in his lowered eyes. It was obvious that he had not completely given up the idea of ​​taking care of the eldest child.

Xu Nian returned to the carriage angrily, still muttering, "Song Yanzhi is really stubborn and annoying!" Her face was so gloomy that water could drip out of it, and her heart was full of resentment and unwillingness.

Thinking back, she had stayed in the Han family for several months, but she never had the chance to get in touch with Han Heming.

Originally, she had been thinking that if Han Heming could become the Duke of Pu, she would also be able to benefit a lot. But later, Han Heming could not become the Duke of Pu, and her thoughts on Han Heming faded.

In her mind, what good is a man without power, no matter how handsome he is? She, Xu Nian, looked down on him. After all, she had been raised in the Bai family since she was a child, and had been in the palace. What she pursued was the power and support that would allow her to continue to enjoy wealth and glory.

At that time, she just wanted to hold on to Song Yanzhi's thighs tightly. As long as Song Yanzhi could always take care of her and protect her, her future life would not be too bad. So she always behaved well and obediently in front of Song Yanzhi, hoping to please Song Yanzhi and let her not leave her.

But after arriving at the pine forest, Xu Nian keenly discovered something wrong.

She noticed that everyone in Songshulin Village respectfully addressed Song Yanzhi as "Master." What did this mean? It was obvious that even if the Han family couldn't become the Duke of Puguo, they still had considerable power and connections behind them. They were definitely not that bad.

So, she started to make plans in her mind, thinking about finding an opportunity to get closer to the Han family so as to create a better future for herself.

Today, she had wanted to take advantage of Da Wa's injury and contact Han Heming under the pretext of taking care of Da Wa. She could also take the opportunity to perform well in front of Han Heming so that he would pay more attention to her and have a good impression of her.

But who could have thought that Song Yanzhi was so defensive, not giving her any chance at all, and completely disrupting her plans. Isn't this really hateful?
