Reborn Lady - Chapter 189

Yin Hui was frightened for several days but found that her father-in-law did not do anything unusual, such as asking her to come over or vent his anger on Wei Luo. Coupled with the fact that Wei Ying had returned to her previous carefree attitude, Yin Hui was finally convinced that her strategy was working.

The sun was warm that day. After Yin Hui had washed her hair, she leaned against the glass window in the next room, lazily basking in the sun.

In fact, her method not only helped Wei Ying delay her father-in-law’s urging marriage but also helped her father-in-law ease the father-daughter relationship with Wei Ying.

It didn’t matter who was right or who was wrong; once the close relatives quarrel, both sides would get hurt.

In her previous life, Wei Ying must have been heartbroken and refused to go home again, and her father-in-law, who sat firmly on the dragon chair, must have lost his composure and cried bitterly, not to mention Cui Yu, whose body and reputation were both damaged.

Everything was fine at that moment.

There were still four years before her father-in-law ascended the throne. Such a long time was enough for Wei Ying to figure out whether she wanted to be with Cui Yu or not.

Pingcheng was still not as prosperous as the capital, and the talents were not as abundant as the capital. Cui Yu was like a bright pearl beside King Yan, attracting Wei Ying’s love. When Wei Ying went to the capital with her father, maybe she would like someone else.

Even if Wei Ying still liked Cui Yu, he may fall in love with other girls. Cui Yu had no official position in Pingcheng, and the reputation of being a eunuch scared away women. Even her father was too embarrassed to propose marriage to him. Four years later, when Cui Yu became a famous supreme official, the aristocratic families in the capital would definitely rush to ask him to be their son-in-law.

As a princess, Wei Ying had a lot of talents to choose from, and as a powerful minister, Cui Yu also had famous families competing for him. Maybe they could settle down separately and wouldn’t be together.

Yin Hui touched her hair to find there was no moisture left.

She pulled the pillow back and lay down.

The sky outside the window was as blue as water.

Yin Hui thought about her father-in-law again.

It should have no effect. In the previous life, Wei Ying married and went to Shu Pinghou’s Mansion. Shu Pinghou didn’t help his father-in-law deal with the court when he was in trouble. The court asked Shu Pinghou to raise troops, who still dared to leave the post without authorization, as he was helping her father-in-law.

Although Wei Ying did not marry into the Zhou family in her new life, the relationship between the Zhou family and the Guo family was still there. The Guo family fully supported her father-in-law, and Zhou Tong stayed in Yandi. He would remain neutral on the surface, but in fact, he would help heer father-in-law. What was more, even if Shu Pinghou sent troops, the imperial court’s hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses would not be able to deal with the father-in-law, so what if the few soldiers and horses from Shu land came?

Thinking back to her father’s grand strategy and military strategy in her previous life, Yin Hui was full of confidence in her father’s continued ascension to the throne.

In other words, if her father-in-law wanted Wei Ying to marry Zhou Tong just to win over Shu Pinghou, then he would not give up easily because of Wei Ying’s dream.

When her spirit relaxed, Yin Hui fell asleep.

Because of it, she had not slept soundly for several nights.

When Jinzhan and Yinzhan saw her, they quietly covered her with a thin quilt and then went outside to guard, not allowing anyone to disturb their master.

When Wei Luo came back at dusk, Yin Hui hadn’t woken up yet. She was lying on the couch, facing him, her eyebrows stretched out, her long hair was fluffy and messy, as she was sleeping soundly.

Wei Luo looked at her silently for a while, then went to the yard, holding Xiao Xun in his arms. He was checking Xiao Heng’s homework.

Xiao Heng’s crisp sound woke Yin Hui up.

The next room was dimly lit, and for a moment, she couldn’t tell whether it was dusk or early morning.

Covering her face and yawning, Yin Hui lifted the quilt and sat up. Looking out of the window, she saw the father and her two sons under the tree. Except for Wei Luo’s overly serious expression, it was genuinely a happy scene.

Suddenly, Wei Luo looked at her.

Yin Hui smiled at him, and the next moment, she saw her own reflection on the glass window, with messy long hair.

Before Xiao Heng noticed his mother’s embarrassment, Yin Hui hurriedly shrank aside, turned around, and went to the bed to freshen up.

After she tidied up, Wei Luo came in with the children.

“Mother, why did you sleep late all afternoon?” Xiao Heng threw himself into his mother’s arms and asked, “I’ve been back for a long time.”

Yin Hui smiled and said, “Because I’ve washed my hair. After washing my hair, it was very comfortable, and when I feel comfortable, I want to sleep.”

Xiao Heng was good in other aspects, but he resisted washing his hair, and every time his wet nurse had to spend a lot of time doing so.

For this reason, Xiao Heng blinked his eyes and turned to tease his younger brother.

Yin Hui shook her head helplessly; the older the child got, the harder it was to fool him.

Wei Luo suddenly took out an invitation card from his sleeve and handed it to her.

Yin Hui took it and smiled when she opened it. It was Feng Teng’s wedding invitation. He would get married on the tenth day of April and sent the invitation half a month in advance.

“I’ve asked my father, I can take you and Xiao Heng there.”

After hearing it, Yin Hui felt more at ease; her father really didn’t suspect anything.

That was right; she concealed it so well that Wei Luo didn’t notice anything strange when he got along with her day and night, and it was even more impossible for her father-in-law to guess that she would know what happened a few years later.

At the same time, the Feng family sent out a wave of invitations, inviting relatives and friends to have the wedding at their house on the tenth day of April.

Pingcheng was such a big place. Feng Su’s status as the commander of King Yan’s guards also made the Feng family a big family respected by the people of Pingcheng, so the Feng family wanted to hold a wedding, and the news spread in the streets and alleys.

“Mr. Feng is the only seedling in Mr. Feng’s family. It was said that he has not been married for many years. I don’t know which madam he fell in love with this time.”

“It’s not a madam, but the lady owner of  the steamed buns store, named Liao Qiuniang!”

“Ah? Why did the Feng family agree to marry such a girl into their family as their daughter-in-law?”

“You don’t understand; Liao Qiuniang’s father is now a Qianhu beside King Yan and is very capable. Mr. Feng is not a person who pays attention to rules. Yes, seeing that Liao Qiuniang is good-looking, he wanted to marry her.”

Similar gossip could often be heard, as people rushed to the Liao family’s bun store, wanting to see the beautiful face of the future Young Mistress Feng.

However, the people who heard the news could only see two female assistants looking after the store. Liao Qiuniang was no longer there.
