Chapter 159 I'm Not Worth It
Ximen Xiaoyue didn't like to hear this, but she couldn't show it well, "Yes, my granddaughter always remembers her grandmother's teachings."
The old lady said: "Don't be unconvinced, the old man has seen what happened in the Xiangfu these few months, and he has analyzed it very thoroughly. If Yuan Shi doesn't make a move, then you will think that if you do, you are not her opponent, so the old man I just said that this person can't stay, but you can't get rid of it now, you can figure it out, the future life is your own, glory and wealth are more important, or your pride is more important."
Ximen Xiaoyue felt that the old lady had too high a view on Yuan Shi. In her opinion, Yuan Shi could be bullied by a woman like Chen Linglong for many years. What would she do?
Is it nothing more than reading more books and gaining a better reputation? It's not influence, it's a liability to her.
On the morning of the wedding day, the two aunts in the old lady's house came, saying that the zodiac signs were in conflict, and asked Yuan to avoid it for the time being.
Zi'an didn't agree, but Yuan agreed, and told Aunt Cuiyu that she wanted to go back to her mother's house for two days.
Yuan's natal family is now unoccupied. After the bachelor returned to the field and returned to his hometown, the mansion has been empty.
Zi'an said: "It's not bad to go back to the Yuan Mansion, but it's just that no one lives there all year round, I'm afraid that the fallen leaves will accumulate, and people will no longer be able to live in it."
Yuan Shi shook her head and said softly: "No, someone has been cleaning it all the time."
"Before grandpa left, did you arrange for someone to clean it?" Zian asked.
Yuan Shi was silent for a moment, "It wasn't your grandfather, it was done by someone with a heart."
"Who cares?" Zi'an looked at her expression and immediately understood, "Prince An?"
Yuan Shi nodded, "Yes."
"How did mother know?" Zi'an was very surprised. Even if Prince An ordered someone to clean it secretly, it should be done very secretly.
"Once, when I went back to the house to have a look, I found that someone was cleaning it. After I went in and asked, I found out that it was Prince An's housekeeper who ordered someone to clean it." Yuan said.
At this moment, Zi'an really felt that Prince An had a heart.
It's just a pity that such a good relationship, if Yuan Shi married Prince An back then, it would be great!
Zian personally sent Yuan Shi back to the mansion.
Opening the gate of Yuan Mansion, he saw that the inside was clean and tidy, there were almost no fallen leaves in the yard, the house was spotless, and there were tea sets on the table, as if waiting for someone to come and live at any time.
Zi'an supported Yuan's family and went up the stairs. The ancient trees in the courtyard were so towering that they almost reached into the clouds.
Even Nanny Yang said: "The scenery here is so beautiful, Madam should come here to recuperate."
Yuan Shi caressed the railing in front of the porch, supported it with both hands, and felt the cool summer wind blowing head-on. She had a childish and innocent smile on her face, a smile that did not belong to her age. She said: "Xiahe is blooming, and the fragrance Very strong."
"I'll take a look with you, okay?" Zi'an said.
"It's good to hear that, I used to like sitting by the lake." Yuan Shi looked very happy, all traces of worry about the Prime Minister's Mansion disappeared on her face, as if she was still the young lady of Yuan's Mansion back then.
Zi'an supported her to go down. Just after turning a corner, a person came in through the door.
The man was stunned when he saw Yuan Shi and Zi'an, and subconsciously wanted to leave, but Zi'an stopped him, "My lord!"
It was Prince An who came.
He would come here several times a month, but he didn't expect that Yuan Shi and Zi'an would be here today.
Yuan's hand clenched a little, but the expression on his face remained the same.
Prince An came over, he kept looking at Yuan Shi, knowing that she couldn't see her, but he didn't see her after she was blind.
His gaze was much more greedy than what he had seen before, and he just kept staring at Yuan Shi like that.
"See you, my lord!" Yuan Shi blessed himself.
"Excuse me!" Prince An stretched out his hand for a gesture, but naturally he didn't touch Yuan Shi.
Zi'an originally thought that the two of them would become very uncomfortable, but unexpectedly, Prince An opened up the chatterbox, "No one has visited this mansion for a long time, it's great that Missy can come back and have a look."
The eldest lady he was talking about was not Zi An, but Yuan Shi.
Yuan Shi was not uncomfortable either, perhaps because she couldn't see, she smiled, "Yes, I always wanted to come back."
"Have you smelled the fragrance of Xiahe? Why don't you go for a walk?" Prince An invited.
"I was going to go, and it would be best to have the prince's company." Yuan Shi said.
Zi'an supported Yuan Shi and wanted to go there. Prince An said to Zi'an lightly: "I heard from Ah Jie that you are good at making tea. Go and make a pot of tea. Also, I haven't used it this morning." Breakfast, come make some breakfast."
Zian smiled, this is to drive her away.
However, with so many years of affection, he should be worthy of having a morning of smelling lotus with his sweetheart.
Zian went to the kitchen, and then asked Nanny Yang to go shopping. Today's happy event in the Prime Minister's Mansion had nothing to do with her, and she had to have such a peaceful morning.
Prince An supported Yuan Shi. This was the first time in his life that he touched Yuan Shi's hand. He looked very natural, but no one knew what kind of ecstasy he felt in his heart.
The two of them didn't speak, and they didn't make a sound until the lakeside.
This road is actually not short, but he hopes to keep going.
Knowing that she couldn't see, he could have held her hand and circled it a few times.
But he can't do this, even if it's a little bit of concealment and deception, he can't do it.
Helping her to sit down on the stone bench in the pavilion by the lake, he sat beside her.
"I remember one time, when I came to the mansion to find a scholar, you painted in this pavilion." Prince An had a special liking for this pavilion.
In the blink of an eye, it seems like a lifetime away.
It was her every frown and smile, with a very domineering posture, that had been entrenched in his heart for many years and could not be lingered.
He is a martial artist, he doesn't understand romance, but he knows that if you like someone, you hope to like her for the rest of your life, hold her in the palm of your hand, and pamper her with all your abilities.
"I don't paint now." Yuan said lightly.
Prince An looked at her, "I didn't mean to bring up your unhappy things on purpose."
Yuan Shi smiled, "I have nothing unhappy now."
Her smile pierced his heart with penetrating power, and he felt that he was willing to exchange everything he had for her smile.
He didn't make a sound, just stared at her blindly, as if if he didn't look at her this time, he wouldn't have such an opportunity in the future.
Yuan Shi didn't say anything, she had nothing to say, and she didn't have anything to ask.
She is not qualified for this.
She suddenly remembered that she should thank him, so she said: "I know that for so many years, the prince has ordered people to clean the Yuan Mansion, thank you."
Prince An smiled, "This is the only way I can keep in touch with you, so before the grand scholar left Beijing, I asked him for the key."
He couldn't protect her, so he could only protect her former home. He thought that only in this way, their lives would still intersect.
Yuan Shi was a little sad, "I'm not worth it."
