Medical Princess

Chapter 1250 Luo Xiaowan Came to Visit

“No!” Shao Wanru shook her head and refused.

“Why?” Shao Yuanhao looked at Shao Wanru in confusion and asked, “You hate it as well. Why can’t you agree?”

He looked at Shao Wanru with his big bright eyes, trying to find the answer from Shao Wanru.

Shao Wanru took a deep breath, suppressed the bitterness in her heart, and said, “Hao’er, have you ever thought about it? No matter how much you hate Marquis Xing’s Mansion, it used to be Father’s favorite place and our grandfather’s residence.”

The old Duke Xing had served the previous emperor in the military all his life. No matter who talked about him, they would praise him. Shao Yuanhao used to be most proud of such a grandfather.

Now when he thought of it, he felt suffocated. The old Duke Xing had been a hero all his life, but he had the entire Duke Xing’s Mansion ruined because of Shao Jing.

Shao Wanru said softly, “There is still a courtyard where Father and Mother used to live in Marquis Xing’s Mansion. Have you forgotten about the screen wall? It is the place where Father studied calligraphy. If you give up Marquis Xing’s Mansion, everything in it will not belong to you. The place where our parents used to live will be destroyed. Mother may have to go back to her original place to recuperate in her current state. Doctor Qi said that it is best to let Mother touch some old things.”

Shao Yuanhao was silent. After a while, he suddenly said, “Sister, I hate them so much!”

He hated these people so much for hurting his family for the title of nobility. If it weren’t for his sister, Shao Yuanhao didn’t know what would have happened to him. He could foresee that it would definitely be a miserable situation. Back then, the people around him either worked for Madam Jiang or Old Madam. Who had really supported him?

At that time, he didn’t even get close to his grandmother. Under the deliberate lure of those people in Marquis Xing’s Mansion, he kept a distance from her. “If it weren’t for Sister…”

Shao Yuanhao didn’t dare to think further. The rims of his eyes became redder and redder. He pursed his lips hard and held back the bitterness in his heart. His brother-in-law had said that he had grown up and was no longer the child who had been raised astray. Not only did he have to bear the responsibility of Marquis Xing’s Mansion, but he also had to support his mother and even support his sister.

“I hate them too! But you still have Mother, me, and Grandmother. Do you know that?” Shao Wanru comforted him in a soft voice. She was much luckier than she was in her last life. At least she had relatives who loved her brother and her sincerely. Just because of this, Shao Wanru felt that she had no regrets.

“I know…” Shao Yuanhao said, “Sister, don’t worry. If my brother-in-law treats you badly in the future, I will help you!”

He clenched his fists hard and felt a little heroic. He was now the master of the mansion, no longer the child back then. Not only did he have to uphold justice for himself, but he also had to uphold justice for his sister.

Shao Wanru smiled softly. Although it was not the most perfect time in her life, it made her feel warm in her heart. The hostility that had accumulated in her heart since her rebirth seemed to have eased a lot.

She had been reborn, so everything had changed.

When Shao Wanru returned to the mansion, she just sat down. Unexpectedly, she received the news that Luo Xiaowan had come to visit her, so Shao Wanru hurriedly sent someone to invite her in.

It was the first time for Luo Xiaowan to come in alone. After entering the door, she looked in good spirits. Her face no longer appeared slender as before. Originally, she was so skinny that she could be blown down by the wind, but now she was a beautiful woman who was neither fat nor thin.

“Greetings, Your Highness Princess Chen.” Luo Xiaowan stepped forward and bowed.

Shao Wanru hurriedly asked Yujie to help her up and invited her to take a seat with a smile. “Sister Xiaowan, why are you here?”

“I… I have an invitation card to send over.” Luo Xiaowan blushed and took out an invitation card from her sleeve.

Looking at the word “Wedding” on the red invitation card, Shao Wanru said with a smile, “Sister Xiaowan, are you getting married? Congratulations!”

Coincidentally, Luo Xiaowan was going to marry Yan Xi. It was said that the two families were very satisfied with the marriage. It seemed that the wedding day had been set.

Luo Xiaowan twisted the handkerchief in her hand, lowered her head with a red face, and said in a soft voice, “Could you please come to the wedding, Your Highness?”

“Of course, I will come. I will definitely come at that time.” Shao Wanru put the red invitation card on the table with a smile.

Luo Xiaowan nodded with a red face. After pinching the handkerchief in her hand twice, she suddenly restrained her smile, stole a glance at Shao Wanru, and asked, “Your Highness, has Qilan come to see you?”

“Miss Zhang is in poor health, so she has never been here. Sister Xiaowan, are you going to see her?” Shao Wanru joked with a smile, “Are you going to send her an invitation card in person?”

“No, no. I was just thinking about the relationship between her and you…” Luo Xiaowan shook her hands and hurriedly explained. After explaining this, she immediately blushed and became embarrassed.

Others might not know what had happened to Shao Wanru and Zhang Qilan, but how could she not know? In the past, the three of them acted together. Now there was no news from Zhang Qilan at all. It was as if she had gone no contact with the other two. Luo Xiaowan was still a little worried, so she especially went to her place. She did not expect that she would not see her there.

Although Luo Xiaowan was timid, she was not stupid. She naturally knew what it meant. When she was in the Palace, she felt that something was wrong. But that only happened once, so she didn’t think too much about it. Now it seemed that she had thought little about it. Zhang Qilan obviously had a problem with Princess Chen for a long time.

Originally, the three of them had a good relationship. Since things had turned out this way, Luo Xiaowan was very sad now.

“Will you stay in the capital or leave after getting married?” Shao Wanru interrupted her with a smile. Luo Xiaowan could not help her with the matter between her and Zhang Qilan, because it was not just a conflict between them.

Speaking of her future, Luo Xiaowan blushed again. “We may stay in the capital city, and Childe Yan will work here… It’s best if I don’t need to leave, and we aren’t asked to go back.”

She blushed and didn’t explain it very clearly, but Shao Wanru understood and couldn’t help smiling. Luo Xiaowan meant that the Yan family didn’t ask her and her husband to go back and that it was good for the couple to stay in the capital city. Luo Xiaowan was weak and soft, so it was better for her to stay in the capital city.

The Princess of Duke Yangqu could also take care of her.

“The wedding is coming soon. Your mother must be very happy!” Shao Wanru said with a smile.

“Well, she is very happy.” Luo Xiaowan nodded repeatedly. It could be seen that she was really happy. She was very satisfied with Childe Yan. Although she had only met him in private once, he looked polite and treated her well. He had specially asked someone to send her a gift. Although he had not spoken much, Childe Yan gave people a feeling that he was very gentle and elegant. Luo Xiaowan and her mother liked him very much.

Thinking of this, Luo Xiaowan suddenly restrained the smile on her face and stole a glance at Shao Wanru. She looked hesitant as she said, “Your Highness, I’ve heard about what happened in your mansion. Don’t… don’t worry. Her Highness Infanta Qinghua will definitely get better. Everything is okay as long as she’s fine. Don’t be sad.”

She had only cared about her own happiness just now. When she thought of her marriage and her happiness, she was overjoyed. But suddenly, when she remembered what had happened to Marquis Xing’s Mansion, she had taken pity on Shao Wanru. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say, so she could only comfort Shao Wanru by saying that.

Infanta Qinghua was very pitiful. Originally, she was the Madam of the Heir of Duke Xing, but now she had gone crazy. She had been imprisoned for such a long time. Everyone couldn’t help but sigh with emotion that such a beautiful woman had a bad fate.

“Thank you for your concern, Sister Xiaowan. I will try my best to make my mother recover,” Shao Wanru said softly with a smile.

Seeing that she was somewhat relieved, Luo Xiaowan was no longer worried and said in a low voice, “My mother asked me to ask if she could meet Her Highness Infanta Qinghua. She said that she and Her Highness were close friends and she wanted to visit her very much.”

Infanta Qinghua was now in the mansion of Rui’an Great Elder Princess and didn’t want to see anyone.

“I appreciate the concern of Princess of Duke Yangqu. But my mother is still under treatment, so it’s inconvenient for her to see anyone. She is not in good spirits and needs to have a good rest. She doesn’t recognize anyone at the moment.” Shao Wanru refused politely.

“Alright then. I’ll tell my mother later.” Luo Xiaowan nodded and stopped making this request. The two talked for a while before Luo Xiaowan left.

Shao Wanru specially sent her to the gate of the courtyard. Looking at her back as she went away, Shao Wanru felt soft in her heart. This life was different from the last one. In her last life, Luo Xiaowan, who was innocent and weak, also got a good marriage. Yan Xi was a good person and a perfect match for Luo Xiaowan. From what had happened later, Yan Xi seemed to be a grateful person. Such a man would surely be nice to Luo Xiaowan.

After Shao Wanru’s rebirth, Luo Xiaowan’s life changed, and so did hers.

“Cousin-in-law!” Suddenly, the voice of Qin Yiyan came to her ears. Shao Wanru turned her head and saw that Qin Yiyan had walked up to her. She looked in the direction where Luo Xiaowan had left and blinked in surprise. “Who are you looking at, Cousin-in-law? Did Cousin leave here just now?”

“No. It’s the Miss of Duke Yangqu’s Mansion.” Shao Wanru shook her head, turned around, and walked inside.

“What was she here for?” Qin Yiyan followed her and did not know which Miss it was. She was not familiar with many Young Madams in the capital city. She was supposed to attend the banquet held by Madam Wen, but the banquet was canceled because of Madam Jiang’s death. At present, the Mansion of the Prime Minister wasn’t holding a banquet. Qin Yiyan felt bored, so she came to her cousin-in-law to chat.

“She’s getting married, so she was here to deliver the wedding invitation,” Shao Wanru said. She walked into the room, sat down, asked the servant girls to make her another pot of tea, and asked with a smile, “What can I do for you?”

“Nothing particular. I just feel bored,” Qin Yiyan said, pulling the handkerchief in her hand out of boredom.

“Do you want to go to the Palace to accompany Consort Lan?” Shao Wanru suggested. She didn’t have time to stay in Prince Chen’s Mansion recently. She went to Great Elder Princess’s Mansion every day to see her mother and have a few words with her.

“It’s not good to go to the Palace all the time!” Qin Yiyan lowered her head and looked unhappy.

At the sight of her look, Shao Wanru knew that something went wrong and asked with a smile, “What happened?” Since Qin Yiyan became closer to Shao Wanru, she behaved much more straightforwardly and said whatever she wanted in front of Shao Wanru. Judging from her look, it was obvious that something had gone wrong.
