After three years of slavery, the entire mansion begged me for forgiveness

Qiao Nian used to like her brother very much, because her brother would beat away those rude scoundrels for her, find the most delicious fruits in the world for her, and even send the only night-shining pearl in the world to her.

In Qiao Nian's heart, Lin Ye used to be an omnipotent and powerful brother.

But since Lin Yuan came back, her powerful brother disappeared.

Only a fool who would only wrongly accuse her and throw dirty water on her all day long, without thinking, impulsive and reckless, was left!

Just like now.

Qiao Nian's arm was a little painful from being grabbed by him, and her eyebrows were twisted fiercely.

Before she could speak, Madam Lin slapped Lin Ye on the arm, "What are you doing? Let go of your sister!"

"Mother! Why do you have to protect her? There are only two of you in this carriage. How dare she say that she didn't make you cry?" Lin Ye frowned and glared at Qiao Nian fiercely, "I warn you, even if I have done anything wrong to you, it has nothing to do with mother. Don't act pretentiously in front of mother. If you make mother cry again, I will never forgive you!"

After drinking, Lin Ye pushed Qiao Nian away.

Qiao Nian was pushed back three steps, and her sprained ankle felt a stinging pain. Fortunately, Ningshuang was already standing behind Qiao Nian and held Qiao Nian steadily.

"What are you doing!" Madam Lin also pushed Lin Ye, but Lin Ye was strong and she couldn't push him.

Seeing that Lin Ye was still standing firmly in the same place, Madam Lin hit Lin Ye twice again, "It has nothing to do with your sister. I cried by myself. Can you change your impulsive temper?"

"Don't you think it's ridiculous for you to say this, mother?" Lin Ye only thought that Madam Lin was biased towards Qiao Nian, "Before she came back, when did you cry for no reason? But she has been back for only a few days, how many times have you cried? Today is only the second day of the Chinese New Year! Qiao Nian, don't think..."

"Don't think that the three years in the palace are anything great." A soft and calm voice interrupted Lin Ye's words.

Qiao Nian looked at Lin Ye, without too much emotion in her eyes, but just asked quietly, "Those three years, I owed the Marquis' Mansion and Lin Yuan, but I just paid off my debt. Is this what the young Marquis wants to say?"

Of course.

Lin Ye wanted to tell Qiao Nian not to use those three years to bully his mother.

But, these were the words he wanted to say all at once, why did Qiao Nian make him feel uncomfortable when he said them now?

It was as if something was tearing him apart again.

Qiao Nian continued, "Young Marquis, there is no need to remind me again and again. Qiao Nian already knows. Qiao Nian will abide by her duties and will not cause any trouble to the Marquis' Mansion. However, in the remaining months, please don't mess with me, young Marquis."

After that, she bowed slightly to Madam Lin and turned to enter the mansion.

Before today, she felt like a dependent in the Marquis' Mansion, and even endured it for her grandmother.

But now it is different.

The Marquis' Mansion needs her to marry King Ming.

So she can tell Lin Ye very firmly not to mess with her.

Until Qiao Nian entered the mansion, Lin Ye still didn't react.

He knew that Qiao Nian had changed since she came back from the laundry department. She was indifferent and distant, and she wanted to stay away from them. Even if she was angry, she would only use an even colder attitude.

But today...

Feeling uneasy for no reason, Lin Ye turned to look at Madam Lin and couldn't help asking, "Mother, what happened?"

Madam Lin frowned slightly, knowing that she couldn't hide this from Lin Ye, so she whispered, "Let's talk about it when we get back."

Lin Ye followed Madam Lin to the Fallen Plum Courtyard.

Lin Yuan's illness had been greatly cured under the care of the palace doctor, and except for a few coughs occasionally, she was fine.

When Madam Lin and Lin Ye came, she was admiring plum blossoms in the yard.

Seeing that she was wearing thin clothes, Madam Lin frowned, "Why are you out when you haven't recovered yet? And you're only wearing this, come on, go in!"

She hugged Lin Yuan into the house, then called Xiao Cui to pour hot water, and then took out a small medicine bottle from her arms, "The Imperial Concubine heard that you coughed badly, so she specially ordered someone to get pills from the Imperial Hospital, saying that they were from the Medicine King Valley. The Queen had been coughing for half a month before, and she got better by eating this."

Lin Ye watched Madam Lin feed Lin Yuan the medicine with her own hands, and immediately understood why Madam Lin rushed to Lin Yuan as soon as she returned to the mansion.

He was naturally worried about Lin Yuan, but seeing that Lin Yuan's face was normal, and he hadn't heard a cough since he came here, he should be fine, so he was worried about another thing at the moment.

"Mother, you haven't told me yet, what happened between you and Nian Nian? Why did you cry like this in the carriage? Also, Nian Nian just said the remaining few months, what does this 'few months' mean?"

Mrs. Lin watched Lin Yuan swallow the pill, and then sighed, "I found a marriage for Nian Nian. Three months later, she will go to Gucheng with Prince Ming, so you should stay here honestly for these three months, and don't look for bad luck with her! I don't know when she will come back after this departure..."

At this point, Mrs. Lin felt her nose sour again, and her eyes were slightly red.

But Lin Ye was shocked, "With Prince Ming? Mother! Are you confused? How can you marry Nian Nian to Prince Ming?"

Lin Yuan was puzzled, "Brother, why are you so angry? Although His Royal Highness Prince Ming is just an idle prince, he has a noble status. Sister will naturally be respected by everyone when she becomes a princess in the future. Why not?"

Lin Yuan felt that Qiao Nian had high hopes for this marriage!

But Lin Ye on the side was so angry that he couldn't help walking back and forth, "Mom, you clearly know that Prince Ming... you, you..."

He really couldn't say those words in front of Lin Yuan, but Mrs. Lin understood them all.

She took a deep breath, lowered her head and wiped her tears, and then said, "Then what do you think should be done? Niannian came out of the clothes bureau. To put it nicely, she was still the eldest lady of my Hou family, but People outside say they don’t know that her surname is no longer Lin! What kind of good family do you think I can find for her?”

"But, it can't be King Ming!" Lin Ye said bitterly, "Aren't you pushing her into the fire pit?"

"What a fire pit!" Mrs. Lin cursed in a low voice, "For such a big person, you still have nothing to say but your head. If word gets out, do you want to lose your head?"

Lin Ye then realized that he had said the wrong thing and closed his mouth angrily, but his chest was rising and falling violently.

Seeing that Lin Ye was really angry, Mrs. Lin finally let out a long sigh and said comfortingly, "You don't have to be so angry. Nian Nian also agreed to the marriage."

Hearing this, Lin Ye suddenly looked at Mrs. Lin, frowning and asking, "Have you made it clear to her?"

Mrs. Lin didn't know what she was thinking of. She looked away and did not dare to look at Lin Ye, but she still nodded.

Lin Ye was shocked, "Then she knows what Prince Ming is like, so she is still willing to marry him?"

Mrs. Lin took a deep breath and didn't know how to answer. She just said, "Anyway, don't pay attention to this matter anymore! And don't bully your sister again!"

Lin Ye didn't respond, but his brows were full of anger.

She is willing to marry such a scumbag. Qiao Nian, you are really disappointing!
