On the other side, Qiao Nian paid no attention to what Lin Ye said to Mrs. Lin.

She was anxious to see the old lady.

Compared with yesterday, the old lady's condition was much better. When Qiao Nian came, the old lady was drinking medicine under the service of Granny Su.

The medicine should be extremely bitter. The old lady drank so much that her features wrinkled up, but when she saw Qiao Nian, she deliberately stretched out her smile and said, "Nian Nian is here!"

"Grandma." Qiao Nian bowed and came forward, sitting beside the old lady's bed. "How is grandma feeling today?"

"It's better." The old lady smiled and gently reached out to caress Qiao Nian's cheek, "But are you scared?"

Qiao Nian shook her head repeatedly, "It's good that grandma is fine."

Seeing the red eyes, the old lady felt really distressed, but then she thought of what Mrs. Lin said last night, and asked, "Did you just come back from the palace?"

Qiao Nian didn't expect that the old lady actually knew about this. She was slightly stunned and nodded silently.

But I heard the old lady say, "You don't have to worry about anything else. If you don't want to, let alone Prince Ming, even if Concubine De Gui comes in person, grandma can help you stop her."

Grandma naturally turned to her in everything.

A warmth filled Qiao Nian's heart. She looked at the old lady and shook her head slightly, "Given my granddaughter's current situation, it is a great blessing to be able to marry Prince Ming. Grandma doesn't have to worry. My granddaughter is willing."

"It's best if you are really willing!" The old lady sighed, "Grandma is afraid that you want to make grandma happy so you rush to find someone to marry. Nian Nian, this is a life-long event, and you can't be careless!"

In the entire Hou family, only the old lady would really regard her marriage as a major event.

Qiao Nian couldn't help but threw herself into the old lady's arms and hugged her tightly. "Grandma, don't worry, Nian Nian is really willing."

As long as it can make grandma happy and stop worrying about her things, she is willing to do anything!

In the remaining days, Qiao Nian will accompany the old lady every day.

With her company, the old lady was happy all day long, and even her spirits improved a lot.

And Lin Ye really never came to see Qiao Nian again.

Qiao Nian felt that it would be great if every day in the future was like this.

However, God did not grant what people wished for.

On the early morning of the eighth day of the lunar month, Qiao Nian hadn't even finished her breakfast when Ningshuang reluctantly came to report, "Miss, the second lady is here again."

The word 'again' shows how much Ningshuang doesn't want to see Lin Yuan now.

Qiao Nian also frowned, and before she could speak, she heard Ningshuang say, "My slave has already told the second lady that the lotus pond outside our Fanghe Garden is dangerously deep, and asked her to tell her if she has anything to do, but she insisted. I have to meet the lady."

The words "deep water and dangerous water" must have been deliberately used by Ningshuang to ridicule Lin Yuan.

Qiao Nian couldn't help but sigh slightly, "After all, she is the direct daughter of the Marquis Mansion. You saw last time what my status is in this manor now. If you really offend her, I can't protect you. "

But listening to Qiao Nian's words, Ningshuang looked happy, "Miss wants to protect me? Does she really accept me?"

This girl!

Qiao Nian didn't know how to answer.

I just thought that even if she was Lin Ye's person, it might be very rare for her to protect herself at a critical moment.

Anyone who protects her will be sincere.

So seeing that Ningshuang couldn't grasp the key point at all, Qiao Nian still relaxed and said, "Let her come in!"

"Okay! Don't worry, miss, I will follow the second miss closely to prevent her from accidentally falling into the water again! Hehe!" Ningshuang laughed and went out. It seemed that she didn't take her words seriously at all. Listen in.

Qiao Nian sighed helplessly, then packed up and went to see Lin Yuan.

Not long after, Ningshuang followed Lin Yuan in.

Seeing Ningshuang following Lin Yuan every step of the way, Qiao Nian almost laughed out loud.

Lin Yuan entered the room and bowed to Qiao Nian. Looking at the smile on Qiao Nian's lips, she thought Qiao Nian was in a good mood today, and she immediately let go of the anxiety she felt before coming.

She smiled at Qiao Nian and said, "I came early in the morning, so I didn't bother my sister, right?"

Qiao Nian was stunned for a moment. She really didn't understand where Lin Yuan was coming from, so she sighed slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"

"I'm here to invite my sister to go to Fahua Temple with us."

Lin Yuan looked very interested.

Qiao Nian also suddenly remembered that today is the eighth day of the first lunar month, which is also the holy day of Fahua Temple.

It is said that as long as you sincerely pray before the Buddha on Holy Day, no matter what you ask for, it will be effective.

In previous years, she would go to Fahua Temple every holy festival, firstly to pray for the safety of her family, and secondly to see Xiao Heng.

Now that she has not been there for three years, she naturally does not want to pray for the safety of her family, let alone see Xiao Heng.

But, I can go there for the sake of the old lady.

I ask Bodhisattva to bless the old lady to live happily for a few more years.

However, the Holy Festival only happens once a year, so there are many dignitaries going to Fahua Temple today, and naturally they will also meet ladies from various families whom they have known before.

Her current status is no longer comparable to that of the past, and I'm afraid she will be subject to a lot of gossip.

But, what is a little gossip compared to the old lady?

Without hesitation, Qiao Nian agreed, "Okay, I'll go make preparations."

Since you are going to the temple to pray to God, you cannot go empty-handed.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yuan said, "Sister, there is no need to prepare anything else. I have already prepared everything you need."

As she spoke, Lin Yuan actually came forward and held Qiao Nian's arm intimately.

In her opinion, Qiao Nian's agreement to accompany her to Fahua Temple today proved that their relationship had broken the ice. In addition, Qiao Nian was about to become a princess, so she didn't have to worry about Xiao Heng still having any thoughts about Qiao Nian. She was naturally happier, so she came up very naturally.

However, Qiao Nian was completely frozen.

She was a little uncomfortable with Lin Yuan's intimate attitude, and frowned immediately, and then pulled back her hand a little forcefully, "I can walk by myself."

The word "disgust" was almost written on her face.

Lin Yuan was stunned. She didn't expect Qiao Nian's attitude to change so quickly. Her eyes were red all of a sudden, "Sister..."

That aggrieved look really looked like someone bullied her.

Qiao Nian was helpless, fearing that trouble would come to her, so she had to speak again, "I'm not used to people getting too close to me."

Lin Yuan nodded, "I understand, my sister's current situation is all caused by me, and it's normal for her to have resistance to me. It's just..."

Lin Yuan bit her lip, as if she had made up her mind, and then spoke again, "It's just that mother really loves sister, sister, sister, don't make mother angry in the future. Mother has lost her appetite all day because of you, and she has lost a lot of weight. Sister, if you have any anger in your heart, just come to me, don't bully mother anymore!"
