The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power
Chapter 190 Acceptance
The man fell silent.
"I know my request is excessive, but I have no other recourse. Consider it our way of compensating her. I always tell her we owe her, but ultimately, the one who truly suffers is the child." Madam Situ smiled bitterly. Using this incident as a threat wasn't her intention, but if she didn't, she wasn't sure she could protect Yaorao. So, she had no choice but to resort to this last resort.
Mrs. Situ's words made the man silent for a while, and finally he agreed: "I understand. But don't let her know."
"That's for sure. As long as she can be kept safe, that's all that matters." Mrs. Situ said hurriedly.
The man finally agreed. Seeing his agreement, Mrs. Situ finally breathed a sigh of relief. She couldn't hold back her tears any longer. The man had rarely seen Mrs. Situ cry over the years.
The first time they met was when Yaorao was dying. At that time, she cried almost every day. The second time was when she made up her mind to save Yaorao.
At that time, he didn't know why she was crying. After that, he never saw this person give in again.
And this time, he didn't know how to face Mrs. Situ.
Madam Situ's voice was very low. The man listened for a long while, then finally half embraced her. He comforted her, "Sister-in-law, don't be sad. This matter will eventually have a result. I promise you, no matter what, I will not let Yaorao get into trouble."
For Mrs. Situ, what she wanted was a guarantee from this man.
The news that Situ Yaorao was getting married shocked the entire capital, and the fact that she was marrying the Crown Prince made everyone in the capital sigh in regret.
Although Situ Yaorao passed the female exam and could get married, marrying the Crown Prince was beyond everyone's ability to bear. Who was the Crown Prince?
He was a child of destiny, a figure like a fairy. How could he have been touched by Situ Yaorao? When they thought of this, they found it unacceptable.
But more importantly, I am looking forward to the future development of this matter.
The two daughters of the Situ family, one is going to marry the Sixth Prince, and the other is going to marry the Crown Prince? Even a fool can tell that there is something fishy going on.
Rumors always spread the fastest.
Situ Yaorao only stayed at home for one morning. When she left, this incident became everyone's gossip. As a result, she could only hide her face with her sleeves and escape all the way back to Lan Yige.
At this time, the door of Lan Yige was also tightly closed. Situ Yaorao knocked on the door hurriedly.
"Stop making so much noise! I've already told you that we don't know anything about this matter, so how could you guys... Eh? Miss?" Lian'er muttered as she opened the door. She was about to get angry, but unexpectedly, the person knocking on the door was Situ Yaorao.
Seeing the door open, Situ Yaorao hurried in. Lian'er quickly closed the door and said, "Miss, you're finally back. You don't know, right now, the whole capital is in an uproar."
"Hey! I know." Situ Yaorao said embarrassedly.
"I thought you would be under house arrest by the master." Lian'er said with some fear.
"I thought so too, but he ran away anyway. Dad didn't seem particularly angry about this matter. He just acted unreasonably at the beginning. But Mom, I hurt her heart." Situ Yaorao sighed lightly.
Upon hearing this, Lian'er said, "Miss, you are helpless."
"By the way, Lian'er, what were you talking about just now?"
"Just now? Oh! Wasn't it because of the imperial edict? As soon as the imperial edict came out, everyone came here to find the young lady. I was really annoyed by the noise. Master Yusheng and the others also went about their own business. I closed the door. Unexpectedly, the young lady came to knock on the door." Lian'er said innocently.
"What do those people want from me?" Situ Yaorao frowned, her intuition telling her that it was definitely not a good thing. Otherwise, Lian'er wouldn't be so angry.
"What else could it be? They're just angry about your engagement to the Crown Prince. Which woman in Lanlin doesn't want to marry the Crown Prince? The fact that the Crown Prince is suddenly with you is naturally something they can't get over. I'm afraid there will be no peace in the days ahead." Lian'er muttered, somewhat indignantly.
In her heart, if Situ Yaorao married the prince, it would be an injustice to her. Of course, Lian'er was the only one who had this idea.
"Next time there are people like that, they will be handed over to the authorities and accused of interfering with our restaurant's business." Situ Yaorao ordered calmly. Lian'er was startled when she heard this: "Miss...is this not good for us?"
"What's wrong with that? Since those women dared to come, we naturally have to let them know that we are not easy to bully. Otherwise, how can we keep this restaurant open?"
"Miss, are you still thinking about opening a restaurant?" Lian'er felt sick. She thought her young lady would go home after hearing this, but she didn't expect that she was still thinking about opening a restaurant.
"This imperial decree was an accident, but I can't ruin my future because of an accident. Lian'er, no matter what the future will be like, I must open the restaurant. Because this restaurant is the only one that belongs to me." Situ Yaorao sighed.
Lian'er looked at her with a confused expression.
"You don't understand now, but you will understand one day." Situ Yaorao said.
"Miss, you are the eldest daughter of the Situ family, and now the future Crown Princess. Do you know what your identity means? Do you know what kind of disaster will be brought about by your living here?" Lian'er looked at Situ Yaorao and asked with a burning gaze.
Situ Yaorao was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and smiled: "Disaster? Can I bring disaster to this place?"
"Miss, there are too many people who want to be the Crown Princess, and too many people who don't want to see you marry the Crown Prince. Madam once told me that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would harm you. Now, you actually want to live here?" Lian'er shouted in disbelief.
"Alright, Lian'er, don't get excited. It's very safe here, at least safer than Situ's house." Situ Yaorao soothed her and went upstairs.
"Miss!"
"Miss..." Lian'er yelled, but Situ Yaorao ignored her. This made Lian'er feel very aggrieved. But she had no choice but to stamp her feet.
No, this matter absolutely cannot go on like this. I have to go back to find my wife.
Lian'er thought about it and ran out.
Meanwhile, Situ Yaorao had already returned to her room. Her room in the restaurant was decorated to her liking. The room was awash in a deep blue. Sitting on the wooden bed, Situ Yaorao looked outside. There were still many people blocking the entrance to the restaurant. Their expressions were filled with anger, to varying degrees.
It seemed as if she was saying that she was not worthy of Tan Tai Wu Yue at all.
Looking at those people, Situ Yaorao sneered. How could anyone else decide whether she was worthy or not?
There was a knock on the door, and Situ Yaorao was startled when she heard the sound: "Who is it?"
"Yu Sheng." Yu Sheng's voice was not loud. Upon hearing that, Situ Yaorao hurried to open the door for him.
After Yu Sheng walked in, she also looked towards the window: "Ha! We don't need to advertise when our restaurant opens." Yu Sheng said half-jokingly.
"This is all thanks to me, the boss, for my good publicity." Situ Yaorao also joked.
Yu Sheng sat beside Situ Yaorao, looking out. Then she said, "Situ, what do you think about this?"
"What do you think?"
"These people came here because of the imperial edict. If there is no good explanation for the imperial edict, do you think our restaurant can be opened?" Yu Sheng asked back.
"The imperial edict is really an accident. But since I have accepted it, I will be the future Crown Princess. Even if these people are unwilling, they dare not do anything. As for whether these people come to drink? There is no need to worry about that." Situ Yaorao said with a smile.
"Don't worry?" Yu Sheng felt as if she and Situ Yaorao were not living in the same world. Things were already so bad, and she actually said not to worry?
