Quick Wear: The Development of a Pure Cannon Fodder
Chapter 49 She No Longer Wants to Be the Heroine (49)
Liu Ziyu's face darkened. "I just said that I can't follow the rules of the Prince's Mansion, but you misinterpreted my meaning and thought I was going to marry into that low-class family. What do you mean?"
The young lady raised an eyebrow. "Isn't this the truth? You said you can't stand too many rules. Then aren't families without rules considered inferior? Could it be that Sister Liu wants both a good family background and few rules? How can such a good thing happen in this world? Even a fairy wouldn't be able to marry someone like this! Does Sister Liu think she's better than a fairy?"
Liu Ziyu was ridiculed by the other party and his face turned ugly. "You said there is no, so there is no? Do you know more about the situation in their mansion than the ladies do?"
The young lady thought Liu Ziyu was out of her mind and sneered, "Then I'll wait and see which big shot my sister will marry!"
After saying that, she turned around and went to talk to other girls. I don’t know what they said behind Liu Ziyu’s back, saying that she was wishful thinking!
Liu Ziyu was left sitting there all alone, looking very awkward. It wasn't that others didn't want to talk to her, but they didn't dare to talk to her when they saw her gloomy face, as if someone owed her money.
The ladies from aristocratic families who were used to observing people's words and expressions had a bad impression of Liu Ziyu when they saw that she couldn't even hide her emotions. They thought that even if they married such a woman, they couldn't take her out because it was obvious that Liu Ziyu couldn't even handle interpersonal relationships well. They still wanted a daughter-in-law who could handle interpersonal relationships well and at least would not be isolated.
Mrs. Liu also saw that her eldest daughter was isolated, and she couldn't help feeling anxious. She asked the nanny beside her to give Liu Ziyu some advice, asking her not to sit alone and to talk to other young ladies. She also knew that some people might laugh at her eldest daughter for breaking off the engagement with Cheng Ting, but as long as she found a good man to get engaged to, no one would dare to laugh at her daughter, so now she should put on a good face and get along well with others.
But Liu Ziyu didn't understand these rules. She only hated that her family had confined her to her home, preventing her from canceling her engagement with Cheng Ting. That was why she was laughed at by so many people. She hated the snobbish Liu family to the core of her heart. She only thought that when she became rich in the future, she would not be so foolish as to take care of the Liu family unless they begged her!
What Liu Ziyu didn't know was that when Cheng Ting was demoted, she was ridiculed even more behind her back. If the Liu family hadn't put her under house arrest at the time, she would have heard even more and worse words.
What made Liu Ziyu feel even more ashamed and angry was that this was the Prince's Mansion. She felt that these people were saying bad things about her, but Yu Zinyin, who held the power of the housekeeper, didn't care at all. She couldn't believe that Yu Zinyin hadn't heard anything. She was her sister, but she just watched herself being talked about and didn't stop it. Such a person became the Prince's concubine. She was simply a perfect match for the cold-hearted Prince!
In fact, Yu Ziyin had not heard anything about Liu Ziyu. The main reason was that the person who hosted and managed the banquet was not Yu Ziyin, who had just taken over the power of housekeeper, but Nanny Ping. Nanny Ping would not disturb the host family's fun because of Liu Ziyu's matter at this time. She also saw the scene where the prince was coaxed happy by Yu Ziyin.
Therefore, Liu Ziyu's resentment towards Yu Zinyin was groundless.
The topic here quickly attracted the attention of the Second Prince's wife who was sitting above. Her eyes kept falling on Liu Ziyu. She turned her eyes around, thought of something, and then began to look for an opportunity to get close to Liu Ziyu.
Soon, the music stopped and Shao Lian told everyone to do whatever they wanted.
The Prince's Mansion had hosted more than one banquet before, so everyone tacitly agreed that except for the Prince's backyard and study, people were allowed to wander around the back garden and the courtyard where the birthday banquet was held. Fortunately, this courtyard alone was very spacious, so even though there were servants from the Prince's Mansion within their scope of activities, no one would feel that whatever they did would be seen by the Prince and would feel restrained.
Liu Ziyu also quickly looked for Cheng Ting. The reason why she endured so many people's contemptuous looks and words and insisted on coming to the Prince's Mansion was to be able to see Cheng Ting and explain to Cheng Ting the cancellation of the engagement. Liu's father and mother did not ask her wishes at all, and she actually did not want to cancel the engagement at all.
In order to meet with Cheng Ting and make things clear, she was also afraid that her personal maid would tell Liu's mother, so she sent her away, and then kept looking for Cheng Ting in the men's seat.
But this was bound to disappoint her. With Cheng Ting's current status, even if he came to the Prince's Mansion to give gifts, he would only be received by the mansion's steward. In addition, the Prince had said before that this banquet should not be grand, so officials below the fifth rank were not invited to attend the gathering. How could Cheng Ting, whose rank was almost gone, be qualified to enter the Prince's Mansion?
Liu Ziyu looked around but couldn't find the person she was looking for. Finally, she thought that Cheng Ting was not qualified to enter the Prince's Mansion at all. She couldn't help but feel complicated, and she couldn't look for him anymore. She could only think resentfully about finding an opportunity to meet Cheng Ting later. Anyway, she knew where the Cheng family was.
Now that Cheng Ting is not here, there is no point for her to come to the Prince's Mansion. She also doesn't want to see her sister Liu Zinyin being favored and arrogant, so she asked the maid beside her to tell Liu's mother that she was not feeling well and wanted to leave first.
After instructing the maid to inform Liu's mother, she went back without caring whether Liu's mother agreed or not.
Halfway through, the Second Prince's wife, who had been keeping an eye on Liu Ziyu, found an opportunity to stop her.
The Second Prince's wife had just told the Second Prince that something had happened in the mansion and she had to go back to deal with it first. The Second Prince didn't think there was anything wrong and let her go first. As soon as the Second Prince's wife left the Prince's Mansion, she asked the coachman to catch up with the Liu family's carriage.
Although Liu Ziyu was curious why the Second Prince's wife wanted to see her, she did not refuse her invitation. The two of them soon walked into the nearest inn.
After entering the private room on the second floor, the Second Prince's wife looked at Liu Ziyu and asked directly whether she wanted to cooperate in the deal to remove Concubine Liu from her current position.
At this time, everyone around Liu Ziyu and the Second Prince's wife was outside, and they were the only two of them in the private room, so the Second Prince's wife expressed her opinion of the sisters Liu Ziyu and Liu Ziyin. "You know, before Liu Ziyin entered the Prince's Mansion, everyone preferred to get along with you, the eldest daughter, and they only knew about Liu Ziyu, the legitimate daughter of the Liu family. As for Liu Ziyin, who was she? It was only after she entered the Prince's Mansion that everyone knew of her existence. Now she is using her appearance to seduce the Prince, and you have been implicated because of Cheng Ting's matter. Don't you feel resentful?"
After hearing this, Liu Ziyu looked at the Second Prince's wife in front of him with gloomy eyes.
Just as this woman said, in the past, especially after Liu Ziyu got engaged to Cheng Ting, the number one scholar, everyone tried to curry favor with her. Even after Liu Zinyin entered the Prince's Mansion, no one thought of currying favor with her. But now everything has turned around.
