Chapter 901: The eldest daughter is as bright as spring flowers (Twenty-three)

When she learned that one of the sisters needed to marry into the royal family, and her younger sister was on a hunger strike, and her stepmother came to ask her for her blessing, Song Qingli sat alone for the entire afternoon. Finally, she asked Chunlan to go to the Marquis' Mansion and return the bracelet that Wei Ying's grandmother had personally put on her wrist.

Wei Ying understood that she returned the bracelet passed down to her by her grandmother to show her intention of fulfilling her sister's wish. Wei Ying didn't want to embarrass her, so he tacitly agreed to her request.

But now Song Qingting is making a fuss and doesn't want to marry Wei Ying anymore.

Marriage is a matter between two people. Wei Ying thought it was simple. Since Miss Song wanted to marry the Seventh Prince, then it would be perfect for Qingli to marry him, and everyone would be happy.

So two days ago, Wei Ying had the bracelet delivered to the Prime Minister's residence again, and asked his attendants to hand it to Qingli personally to show his attitude.

Qingli did not return the bracelet and kept it carefully. After all, it was a keepsake, so how could she wear it to a banquet casually?

"Are you lost? I'll take you back." Wei Ying spoke first, with a hint of concern in his tone.

Song Qingli smiled slightly and replied, "Brother Shi, I just felt a little bored and came out for a walk."

"It just so happens that I am too."

The two were about to continue their conversation when they heard hurried footsteps not far away.

A single man and a single woman together would easily be gossiped about, and Qingli didn't want anyone to see them.

The two looked at each other, and Wei Ying looked around. This was a corner of the garden and they needed to find a place to hide.

He tugged at her sleeve. "Come with me."

Qingli's eyes were fixed on the big hand that was pinching her sleeve. She didn't struggle and followed the footsteps of the person in front.

The two hid behind a rockery nearby. The rockery was narrow, forcing them to cling to each other. Song Qingli could feel the warmth coming from Wei Ying's body, and her heartbeat quickened.

In the narrow space, the breathing of both of them seemed to become sticky.

Qingli stood in front, and Wei Ying's body almost completely wrapped Song Qingli. She could smell the clean soapy scent on his body, which made her feel an inexplicable sense of security.

Their arms touched inadvertently, and Song Qingli felt an electric current passing through her body. She trembled slightly and wanted to move away from him, but he held her back.

The man whispered in her ear: "Don't move, someone is coming."

The hurried footsteps outside stopped. Qingli looked outside through the gap and saw that it was the county lady Zhou Zhiying.

Zhou Zhiying sat on a stone bench, pulling the grass and leaves around her with her left hand, and tugging at her dress with her right hand, making it wrinkled, and she was sulking.

Another woman appeared from behind and stopped beside Zhou Zhiying, her voice filled with urgency:

"County Lady, does your wound still hurt? My aunt sent someone to get the Jade Muscle Cream. It will definitely not leave scars. It's not safe for you to go out alone. Bring a maid with you next time!"

Qingli looked at the woman, who was wearing a light grey jacket and skirt with cloud patterns. Her face was wrinkled and her skin was a little sallow, but it was obvious that she had a good foundation when she was young and must have been a beauty back then.

Zhou Zhiying looked at the gentle woman in front of her, sobbed, stood up and hugged the woman.

"Aunt, I'm not happy. Someone hurt me, and Mother is still hesitant because of that person's identity. I think she doesn't want to seek justice for me. Those ladies are also laughing at me!"

The woman comforted her distressedly, "Your aunt will talk to your father. You are his daughter. He will persuade him and will definitely make the decision for you. Those people are just jealous of you. Don't be sad. In your aunt's eyes, you are the best girl. No one else can compare to you."

When the woman said this, the expression on her face was gentle and her words were full of sincerity, as if she really meant it.

Zhou Zhiying burst into tears: "Wow, aunt, you are so kind. Mother always scolds me and asks me to learn the rules and those boring things."

"My dear, please don't cry. It hurts your aunt to see you cry. She loves you too, but that's just her personality. She didn't mean to be mean to you. Don't worry, your aunt will help you get revenge."

The woman gently wiped Zhou Zhiying's tears, made her laugh, and then took her away.

The footsteps gradually faded away. After the two left, Qingli hurried out of the rockery.

Wei Ying followed closely behind.

Qingli asked him, "Is that the sister of the Prince Consort? How come I haven't seen her before? She was a little too friendly to the Princess."

Wei Ying was just thinking about it, and now he remembered an event in the past.
