Chapter 1680 - 1682: Perfect to Pass the Time with Them
"Princess Consort Le has left already, why are you still here? Waiting for me to ask you to leave?" Now that Princess Consort Le had left, Yang Chuxia felt there was no need to hold back any longer.
She had no good feelings towards the Luo family, nor did she intend to get close to them, she had no concern for appearances at all.
"You..." Old Madam Luo once again recognized Yang Chuxia’s arrogance; she didn’t even save face for Princess Consort Le, let alone for them.
She also knew that today she wouldn’t be able to take Linyu away.
After thinking it over, she said to Linyu, "You need to think it over carefully. If the outside world finds out that you are stubbornly staying at the Ye Family and refusing to leave, what would others think of you..."
Yang Chuxia thought she was about to insinuate something between Linyu and Ye Zi’an, so she quickly interrupted her.
"Old Madam Luo, if any rumors about Linyu spread, then she!" Yang Chuxia pointed at Luo Linfei, "She will face the same rumors, think carefully, don’t end up losing more than you gain."
Old Madam Luo originally intended to go back and spread rumors about Linyu and Ye Zi’an, but she didn’t expect that Yang Chuxia had already seen through her intentions.
"Hmph, really an ungrateful and unrighteous person, having to be invited back by an old woman like me three times and four times."
After saying that, she left, but the dark look she gave before leaving told Yang Chuxia that this old hag definitely wouldn’t let it go easily.
Later events also proved her thoughts right.
After the Luo family had left, Luo Linyu asked Yang Chuxia, "Cousin-in-law, I seem to have caused you trouble. Maybe I should just let my father know, and I can go live at his private residence."
"There’s no trouble at all." Yang Chuxia waved her hand, "You should stay here properly, you can’t go to that private residence. Your father and Linhao are away most of the time; if you, a young lady, live there and that old hag finds out, she wouldn’t need to ask anyone else, she’d bring a few maids herself to tie you up and take you back to the Luo family. Once there, whether you’re shaped round or flat is up to them."
"But, with them always coming to Prince An’s Mansion, it doesn’t seem right." Luo Linyu thought that the Luo family constantly causing a fuss would certainly affect the Ye family’s reputation.
"It’s fine." Yang Chuxia just laughed, "No need to fear them coming; life in the Capital City is too boring, they’ll be good for passing the time."
Hearing her speak so casually, Luo Linyu couldn’t help but feel exasperated.
Seeing that she wasn’t speaking, Yang Chuxia patted her shoulder, "Don’t overthink things. Just do whatever you want usually, I’ll handle any trouble from the Luo family. But remember one thing, don’t go out alone; if you end up in that old woman’s hands, she’ll pair you off with that boy from the Li Family."
"Huh? She wouldn’t go that far, would she?" Luo Linyu’s face changed at the words, "Isn’t she afraid of my father dealing with her afterward?"
"What does she have to be afraid of? If things work out, it’s settled. Even if your father gets angry, what use would it be? Could he stop you from getting married? That old hag is ruthless, she’d do anything."
It’s said that people either grow kinder or bitter as they age, and Old Madam Luo clearly belonged to the latter group.
"I understand, in that case, I’d better not leave the mansion."
"It’s not that you can’t go out, just remember to take someone with you."
"Alright."
After Luo Linyu left, Yang Chuxia immediately sent someone to find out what was happening at Prince Le’s Mansion.
The person sent out acted swiftly and came back with news that the heir of Prince Le’s Mansion was poisoned, and the imperial physicians from the palace had already rushed over.
