Unaware that My Legitimate Sister is My Husband - Chapter 46
Chapter 46
(17.2)
Xi Xian also did not know what would happen.
Because the emperor’s way of doing things wasn’t something that she could guess, every time she guessed a move, he was already ten moves ahead. Dealing with her was very easy for him.
But on second thought, Xi Xian’s expression relaxed slightly.
Just like he reminded her during their past life, only Xi Xian thought that she was special. Now she was reborn, could it be that only people related to her could be reborn ? Maybe it was just an unrelated person to her, and not necessarily that man, and it just happened to have a ripple effect on her father. If she bashed her head against a brick’s wall because of that, that would be worrying about troubles created by her imagination.
What she could do was still limited.
She had to get married in time, get married as soon as she reaches maturity! She couldn’t stop for even one moment.
Originally she only wanted to marry an honest well-off man from a small family, so she turned down the old lady, and turned down her legitimate sister, but now there was a person in the dark that might also have been reborn. Xi Xian could not be sure who that person was, and didn’t dare to think it could be the emperor, but what was sure was that getting married was extremely urgent.
Now she had made a decision, she was going to follow her legitimate sister’s will, it didn’t matter who she gets married to, any man would do, for the sooner she gets married, the sooner she could set her mind at ease.
As for the Xi family, there was nothing than Xi Xian hated more than this place, but in this life her little brother was born, and she and her concubine mother no longer were two women who could separate from the Xi family, because her brother’s surname was Xi, and as a valued male child, he could only stay in the Xi family.
Since his birth, Xi Xian also hoped that the Xi family could get rid of the bad fate. They didn’t need to face the wind trying to climb up. She hoped they would just stay quiet and safe.
So these days, she was also thinking about how to warn Xi Zhengqing, to not do the things that made him into a criminal during their past lives, but she didn’t expect that her father was no longer in charge of his former official post, and instead went to a new place, where he would have to restrain himself at least for a while.
Xi Xian put the letter in a wooden box and put it in the bottom of her trousseau. She then turned around and lifted the curtain to go outside, while saying to Chun Cao and Qiu Feng, “Pack my boxes and stuff, and send them to Shoukang courtyard tonight.”
She said “Work hard”, and then went out on her own, facing the wind.
Xi Xian’s body was not yet fully recovered, Chun Cao and Qiu Feng looked at each other, and in the end, Qiu Feng stayed behind to watch the maids pack up, while Chun Cao followed Xi Xian so that she could take care of her at any time.
Xi Xian went to see the old matriarch.
She knew that she had been too inconsiderate, and for someone who had been in the backyard of the residence for such a long time, it was easy for her to see through the impatience in her behavior, but whether or not the old matriarch had reached some kind of agreement with her legitimate sister, she was Xi Xian’s grandmother in the end.
Despite the weakness of their relationship in her past life, Xi Xian still treated her as someone to be respected.
The old matriarch Xi, née Zhou, had yet to say anything, that already Xi Xian was kneeling on the ground. She immediately told her to get up, and even nodded her head, ordering the momo to serve Xi Xian tea, and had Xi Xian sit slowly to have a conversation, telling her not to be anxious.
Xi Xian said with tears: “Before, I fell a sick at a really bad timing, I’m just afraid that grandmother thought I was not happy, it’s just that I’ve always lived outside with my Yiniang, I really do not understand all the implications, but elder sister reminded me, so that’s how I came to learn that I did not do well enough, which made grandmother exhausted from worry …… ”
Née Zhou just smiled, and kindly said: “You child, what relationship do we have? Before when you were sick, grandmother was so anxious, how could I be suspicious of you? Now that you’re here, the partition between the rooms have been set up, and everything is in place, so you can live with grandmother. This way, grandmother and grandchild can have a companion to look after everyday.”
When Xi Xian heard this, she knew that this matter was over on her grandmother’s side, who did not intend to pursue it. She did not even beat her, and just pretended like nothing ever happened, and that was the end of it.
At the same time, Xi Xian also gained an additional layer of fear.
Her grandmother was not that easy-going of an old lady, she had heard how her grandmother used to fight with her son’s main wife in her last life, now that the main wife had passed away, her grandmother should not be so kind like a Buddha, yet she unexpectedly did not say even one word of blame, that couldn’t be ah.
Xi Xian was afraid that née Zhou would remember this matter in her heart, so she was even more frightened. Lowering her neck, she said, “Grandmother’s kindness to Xian Xian is unforgettable, I would like to copy Buddhist sutras for the old matriarch for the rest of my life, so that your mind can be free from worry and blessed with peace.”
