Reborn Lady - Chapter 336
Yin Hui leaned against the crook of his arm, adjusting her position to avoid messing up her hair bun.
Wei Luo squeezed her hand and remarked, “If my cousin were as timid as you were when we first got married, she would never dare to make such a request to marry a lord. It’s clear she’s not afraid of me.”
Yin Hui snorted and retorted, “It’s not the same. Your cousin is different from me. Even if you were fierce, you would never truly harm her. She’s naturally confident. But as for me, one mistake and I could end up divorced. I had to be cautious.”
Wei Luo dismissed her comment, saying, “That’s nonsense.”
Yin Hui remained silent, noticing Wei Luo’s gaze fixed on her, and eventually closed her eyes too.
Observing Yin Hui’s irritated expression, Wei Luo pondered for a moment before lightly kissing her slightly pursed lips.
Yin Hui pushed him away, but he held her tighter.
As the carriage jolted slightly, Yin Hui trembled in his arms.
Realizing the timing wasn’t right, Wei Luo gently released her.
They straightened their clothes, and Yin Hui retrieved a small mirror from the side cabinet to carefully check her makeup.
When Wei Luo’s reflection suddenly appeared in the mirror, Yin Hui turned her head.
Wei Luo whispered in her ear, “Husband and wife are one.”
To him, his cousin was merely a responsibility; as long as she had no worries about food and clothing, he might not see her for three months or even the rest of his life.
Yin Hui was different. She was an integral part of him, and wherever he went, he wanted to take her along.
Unable to see his eyes, Yin Hui could only hear his voice.
Kissing her first and then mentioning “husband and wife are one” in broad daylight, was this person being suggestive?
Yin Hui glared at him.
Observing her blushing face, Wei Luo knew she understood.
During the latter half of the journey, the husband and wife sat in a more restrained manner. Upon arriving at the mansion, Wei Luo reverted to his cold demeanor.
As Prince Shu and Princess Shu arrived, Nanny Huang followed Wen Ruyue out to greet them.
Wen Ruyue remained thin, but it was unclear whether it was due to her low spirits and lack of appetite or if she deliberately maintained a slender appearance.
Upon scrutinizing her expression once more, Yin Hui was momentarily reminded of Yin Rong when she was with her own husband.
“Cousin Brother, Sister,” Wen Ruyue greeted the two respectfully, her voice trembling slightly as she addressed them.
After these three months, the dissatisfaction in Wen Ruyue’s heart had transformed entirely into anxiety.
She feared that her cousin, like Xue Huan, would confine her.
Wen Ruyue didn’t want to endure that kind of life once more. She longed to marry someone who would treat her kindly. She no longer sought her husband’s official status but only wished for someone to greet her warmly.
“Cousin, I know I was wrong, please forgive me,” Wen Ruyue pleaded, tears streaming down her face.
This time, it wasn’t an act; she was genuinely frightened.
Wei Luo averted his gaze, while Yin Hui helped Wen Ruyue to her feet.
Wen Ruyue leaned into her arms, sobbing and expressing her regret to Wei Luo.
As her tears gradually subsided, Wei Luo glanced over and assured, “Cousin, don’t worry. I will certainly arrange a good marriage for you.”
It didn’t have to be from a high-ranking family to secure a good marriage. What she needed was someone who was willing to care for and cherish her.
In the end, the decision of whom Wen Ruyue could marry would indeed fall to Wei Luo. Yin Hui, being her cousin’s wife, couldn’t bear such a significant responsibility.
Furthermore, surrounded by Concubines and Princesses, Yin Hui had limited knowledge about suitable suitors for Wen Ruyue.
Her statement to Wei Luo was merely a form of reassurance, and Wei Luo graciously accepted the role of matchmaker.
Ultimately, it was fate that made Wen Ruyue Yin Hui’s husband’s cousin.
After visiting the palace to speak with her mother-in-law and offer reassurance, Yin Hui returned to the palace and began making plans for her two maids, Jinzhan and Yinzhan.
Women in their twenties were not considered “old girls” at all, especially those from wealthy families. As noble ladies, they served as main maids like Jinzhan and Yinzhan. Typically, they didn’t engage in heavy physical labor, enjoyed good food and clothing alongside their master, and used high-quality cosmetics that were not considered vulgar. Their faces were smooth and tender, possessing the charm of a girl and the beauty of a young woman.
However, at their age, it was increasingly challenging for the two maids to delay marriage any longer.
Usually, such senior maids were assigned to serve either as stewards within the mansion or outside.
Currently, the internal manager of the Shu Mansion was An Shun’er, who was positioned next to Wei Luo. The servants respectfully addressed him as “Grandpa An”.
There were also several stewards under these two individuals, who might serve as stewards themselves. The youngest among them was almost thirty, married, and considered ordinary servants, not entitled to gold and silver.
Yin Hui discussed this matter privately with Jinzhan and Yinzhan.
In her heart, she had someone in mind.
“Chang Feng works alongside the Prince and is thirty-two years old, yet he remains unmarried. You two are acquainted with him and know him well. His status is more than sufficient for both of you. Do you like him? If so, let me know, and I’ll look into it.”
Yinzhan smiled at Jinzhan, who initially seemed fine but then blushed and retorted angrily, “What are you looking at?”
Yinzhan responded, “You are more familiar with Chang Feng. I haven’t interacted with him much.”
She possessed a calm personality rather than a steady one, while Jinzhan was lively and skilled in communication. Whenever there was any activity in the front or back yards, the Princess typically sent Jinzhan to handle it. Even during the Princess’s travels, she often took Jinzhan along.
Hearing the two of them bickering, Yin Hui observed and teased Jinzhan, “It’s about time, don’t be shy. Give me an answer, or else I might just focus on helping Yinzhan find someone.”
Jinzhan lowered her head, fidgeting with her cuffs nervously.
Understanding Jinzhan’s discomfort, Yin Hui turned to Yinzhan and said, “I’ll start by finding a match for you first, and then it will be your turn.”
