Chapter 359 Someone supports me
"Go home, come home! Mother will take you home tomorrow, An An, don't cry!" Mrs. Ye was almost going crazy. When had she ever seen their happy boy being so wronged?
This time she came to Zhuocheng, originally to discuss marriage happily. She was also worried that the other party's status was too high and her daughter would be wronged if she married into the family. However, her husband comforted her, saying that Yu'er was the dignified Princess Zhuo, and who would dare to bully her sister?
It was because they overlooked that no matter how high Yu'er's status was, she was just a girl in her teens. There were many interpersonal relationships and dark things in the backyard that even she herself didn't understand, so how could she guard against them?
Don't blame them, blame yourself if you want to blame someone. Why should you avoid suspicion? Why should you be afraid of being criticized?
She decided that this time she must ask Aunt Xu to stay behind to keep order and help the two of them keep an eye on things!
Ye Muan twisted the handkerchief tightly in her hands, and only then did she become truly scared.
Just now at the entrance of the brothel, the way those men looked at her frightened her;
That day in the restaurant, she was frightened by the groundless slander;
Even the bright future that Wu Chen had promised her now frightened her...
She should like Wu Chen, but she has never liked anyone else. She is not sure how many times her love for a person can withstand the slander?
The storybook says that if you really love someone, you can be fearless...
But when she thought about how she would have to endure her disgust and deal with those ladies in the future? She would have to not refute or resist for many reasons? As soon as she thought about this, she felt scared... Maybe she didn't like them enough?
What if, because he didn't like her enough, the two of them drifted apart, and he might even take a concubine in the future... and even one of the ladies in the restaurant that day? Ye Muan shuddered!
No, no, just thinking about it made her feel suffocated!
This Zhuo City was like a big net that bound her. She no longer had the anticipation and joy she had when she first set out. She lived in fear every day, afraid that she had not done something well enough, afraid that she would cause trouble for Shen Yu and Wu Chen... This kind of life was too tiring, and she wanted to escape just thinking about it.
...I wonder if Wu Chen will be sad if she runs away?
In the past half month, whenever he had time, he would stay by her side. He was so happy about the engagement...
Ye Muan’s head ached. Getting married is so troublesome!
Shen Yu looked at the people who stepped into the door and spoke slowly, "Aunt Ye, An An, don't worry, I will take care of everything for you!"
"See you, my lord!"
Suddenly, a servant came from behind to greet him, but the footsteps were obviously from more than one person. Ye Muan suddenly had a bad feeling...
"Meet Commander Gu!"
Madam Ye felt her daughter stiffen for a moment in her arms, and she sighed softly, patted her and stood up, and greeted her daughter, "Greetings, Your Majesty! Greetings, Commander Gu!"
Before Lu Yingxing could say anything, Wu Chen had already taken the lead and stepped forward to stop the mother and daughter from bowing, "Mrs. Ye, An'an, there's no need to be so polite."
The person who always called him "Wu Chen" sweetly when they met on weekdays, now lowered her head and said nothing, even her head revealed her resistance to him. Thinking back to what the princess had just said... Wu Chen tried to call out softly, "An An?"
As a result, the man's head hung even lower.
Madam Ye smiled and said, "I'm sorry, Master Gu, my daughter is being rude. Or can I take her away first?"
Although she smiled appropriately, the alienation in her words was obvious. Lu Yingxing raised his eyebrows and glanced at his brother, thinking about something, and then he spoke to help, "Aunt Ye, don't be polite to him. We are all family. What's wrong with Miss Ye?"
Madam Ye was very fond of the prince who was protecting Yu'er, and said hurriedly, "It's okay, just... maybe he's a little uncomfortable with the local climate."
After saying this, he patted his daughter's hand comfortingly, but hid her behind himself.
Lu Yingxing didn't say much, "Madam, why don't you go and have a rest?" Then he walked to Shen Yu's side and took her to the main seat to sit down.
Just now we were discussing matters when we received a message from the Madam, asking to see Fu Yunxiu?
Normally, the princess would not meet with them alone, so the group rushed over from the study. As a result, when they arrived at the courtyard gate, they saw Wu Chen approaching quickly. Now they saw Ye Muan's appearance... Tsk tsk tsk, could it be that Fu Yunxiu did something to his fiancée?
"An An..." Wu Chen did not give up and tried to call out again.
"Commander Gu, please respect yourself and don't say my daughter's maiden name carelessly, lest someone use it to attack my sister. Please call her Miss Ye!"
They both looked up at Shen Yu at the same time. When Wu Chen saw the indifference on the princess's face, he felt a huge headache.
As soon as he received the news from his mother, he had already rushed to the palace. It was indeed Madam Gu's words that angered the princess. He stepped forward and saluted first to the princess and then to Madam Ye, "Don't worry, I will give you an explanation on this matter. I will definitely handle the affairs of the Gu family and will never allow anyone to disturb us... An An and Madam Ye, the Gu family members, my mother and my brother, you don't have to pay attention to the others. I came here today to ask the prince to be a witness for us brothers. Gu Liu and Gu Chen want to separate from the surname Gu!"
How dare the Gu family ask to marry An An in front of his mother? Did they not take her fiancée seriously, or did they think that Gu Chen's marriage would be controlled by them?
Ultimately, I think he is too kind.
The Gu family has ignored my mother for many years. If it weren't for the protection of Prince Zhuo's Mansion, my mother would have a harder time on her own. So he didn't blame the princess for helping An An vent her anger and making things difficult for him. He was grateful that someone was willing to protect his family when he neglected it.
What was there for Shen Yu to not understand after hearing this? It seemed like he didn't even know what was going on?
Seeing that her husband still looked like he was enjoying the show, she was furious. She raised her hand and pinched him, saying, "You people in Zhuocheng are really going too far! Humph!"
"Bao'er! Help Aunt Ye sit down!"
Lu Yingxing's heart skipped a beat. Is this still his business? He hurriedly comforted her, "Who made Madam unhappy? Your husband will help you get revenge!"
"Oh, I have nothing to be angry about. Anyway, the person being bullied is the second brother of the Ye family, Ye Muan!" Shen Yu glanced at him and said lightly.
Wu Chen, who had been staring at his future wife, paused for a moment and asked, "Excuse me, Princess, what do you mean by that?"
"Oh, nothing much. I just heard that many people want to marry Commander Gu. They say that my An An is from a small family and is not worthy of me. They also say that she is getting close to me in order to do everything she can to become the princess's concubine? On the first day An An came to Zhuo City, she went out happily to experience the customs and practices of Zhuo City. As a result, she really got to experience them. Suddenly, she was blocked by a group of young men and women in a restaurant and insulted. They told her to be sensible and stop pestering Commander Gu... Our An An is the most sensible!"
Still not satisfied after saying that, he continued, "Second brother of the Ye family, why don't you tell our Great Commander Gu about the grand occasion of the birth that day? Otherwise, our Great Commander will forget about the noble lady. I don't know how many girls out there want to get her position as Madam Gu. Tsk! Do you really think our An An is precious? Ha!"
