Chapter 51 You Love Wei Ling
Chapter 51 You Love Wei Ling
"It's General Wei." At this point, Su Jixiang had to say it.
But after she finished speaking, Qu Wanning threw the whole bowl of medicine to the ground.
With a bang, the porcelain bowl opened and the warm medicine poured onto the ground, with a little steam rising faintly.
Zhao Xiuwan and Li Yuzhu, who lived in the same room with Qu Wanning, also heard their conversation and came over.
Zhao Xiuwan was still upset about the fact that she had fallen into the second round to pick up Qian Feng. When she heard Su Jixiang say that the person she was betrothed to was Wei Ling, her heart suddenly became as mixed as a smashed seasoning shop. No wonder Wei Ling refused to see her when she asked Qian Feng to meet him, and said that he had been betrothed. Originally, Zhao Xiuwan was still thinking that the person Wei Ling was betrothed to was probably a noble lady from a wealthy family in the capital.
Although she was not bad, she had been to the palace after all and was no longer a virgin. It was normal if she could not compare with those new nobles in the court.
But now that she heard Su Jixiang say this with her own ears, she was devastated.
Why!
A palace maid chopping wood in the imperial kitchen! No matter what, she can't compare to the daughter of the governor of Jiangxia!
Was Emperor Longchang mentally ill? Why would he grant Wei Ling such a marriage?
She sneered, originally wanting to say something to provoke Su Jixiang, but then she changed her mind and thought that if Wei Ling really wanted to marry her, then Su Jixiang would be Madam Wei in the future, the highest-ranking woman in Mangcheng and the Black Tiger Army! Her marriage to Qian Feng was already a foregone conclusion, and no matter what, she couldn't offend Su Jixiang now.
So she turned her target to Qu Wanning.
"I was wondering why you looked so sick." Zhao Xiuwan said with a sneer, "So you have someone in your heart! Otherwise, why did you react so strongly when you heard that General Wei was arranged to marry? Su Jixiang has taken care of you all the way, and I heard that she even saved you in the palace! Otherwise, you would have lost your innocence long ago. Why, when you heard that someone married a higher-ranking and better-looking person than you, you threw things? You're just like this to Su Jixiang, and you even became sworn sisters. How could you so easily ruin your relationship? It's really funny."
Zhao Xiuwan herself was feeling bad, and she wouldn't let Qu Wanning feel good either.
Then she turned to Su Jixiang and said, "If you save a dog, it will wag its tail and beg for mercy. But if you save a person, he will just throw things at you. Open your eyes in the future! Haha, what good sisters are there? We just haven't touched each other's interests!"
"Zhao Xiuwan, if you can't speak, just shut up!" Su Jixiang felt uncomfortable and looked at Zhao Xiuwan coldly.
"I want to say it, can you still shut me up?" Zhao Xiuwan covered her lips and chuckled, "You too, you said you are good sisters with Qu Wanning, it's ok for you to hide such a big thing from us, but you even kept it a secret from her. You are really related to her, you watched her fall in love with Wei Ling, and then told her the fact." Zhao Xiuwan was not sure whether Qu Wanning really fell in love with Wei Ling, but who can't make up nonsense? Qu Wanning put on this dying look, if not for a man, for whom?
Zhao Xiuwan knew that Qu Wanning had gone to look for his father and brother before, and that he looked sick after coming back. At this critical moment, if it wasn't for marriage, could it be for something else? Zhao Xiuwan could figure it out even with her toes.
After learning that Su Jixiang's arranged marriage partner was Wei Ling, Qu Wanning should have been happy for Su Jixiang. If she was so angry and smashed the bowl, who else could she love if not Wei Ling? So Zhao Xiuwan said it directly.
She really hit the nail on the head when she said it by accident.
"You like Wei Ling?" Su Jixiang was a little confused. When did he fall in love with him? How come she didn't notice it? Besides, Wei Ling had almost no contact with Qu Wanning... Su Jixiang recalled that once it was in the palace, Wei Ling beat Sun Laoliu, and once it was when the Mangcheng military camp caught fire, it was also Wei Ling who rescued Qu Wanning... So this should be how she fell in love with Wei Ling.
Zhao Xiuwan hit the nail on the head when she said what was in her heart. Qu Wanning felt angry, embarrassed, and a bit resentful. She threw the pillow on the bed directly at Zhao Xiuwan, "Get out! All of you get out!" She shouted hysterically!
Su Jixiang sighed. No matter how angry Qu Wanning was, his marriage with Wei Ling was set in stone and could not be changed.
"Take care of yourself." Su Jixiang stood up and picked up the broken porcelain pieces on the ground. "I'll get you another bowl of medicine. No matter how angry you are, your health is your own. Besides, your father and brother have been found. There's no need to abuse your health like this."
After saying that, Su Jixiang turned and left.
When Qu Wanning saw Su Jixiang leave like this, she was so angry that she pounded the bed and buried her head in the quilt and started crying.
When Zhao Xiuwan saw Qu Wanning crying so sadly, she sneered again, "You deserve it!" After saying that, she turned around and left.
Li Yuzhu was extremely jealous, but there was nothing she could do. She didn't want to offend Su Jixiang or Qu Wanning. After all, Su Jixiang was going to marry Wei Ling, and Qu Wanning's father and brother were both generals in the army. Her future husband would be under the command of these three people.
The news that Qu Wanning and Su Jixiang had fallen out over Wei Ling quickly spread among the palace maids.
Bihe and Feicui, who had originally laughed at Su Jixiang, now found out that Su Jixiang's arranged marriage partner was Wei Ling. The two were envious and jealous, but they did not dare to act rashly in front of Su Jixiang. They could only laugh loudly at Qu Wanning behind his back for overestimating his own abilities, as a way to comfort themselves.
The next day, the marriage list was announced.
One was posted inside the military camp and another one was posted in the palace maids’ quarters.
Everyone, whether they had something to do or not, gathered around to watch the fun.
"Hey, Brother Chunlin! You are also worthy of a palace maid!" Someone pushed He Chunlin in the crowd and said with a smile, "You have so many beards, don't prick that delicate young lady!"
He Chunlin stood in the crowd and saw his name on the list. He was a little stunned. How did he get selected?
Originally, he thought he had no hope. After all, there were 70 people selected. His height was not outstanding among them. He also had a big beard. Others shaved their heads for the husband selection, but he didn't. He was just a little proud in his heart. Why should they be selected like monkeys? But when the selection was made, he regretted it a little. If he had known that everyone was working so hard, he should have shaved his beard. The beard was so long that he could hardly see his nose and eyes clearly...
He looked in the order of names and saw that his name was listed together with that of a palace maid named Huarui.
Huarui...what a nice name. Although he didn’t know this palace maid, he believed that this girl with a flower-like name must be very beautiful.
