章節 4: Get Married!
She will help her ill mother to get well, too. So the contract will be made with these thoughts together. There is no way that the Female Lead will turn down such a great offer that is placed right in front of her eyes.
Yun Shu smiled like an evildoer after she thought about her perfect plan to capture the Female Lead in her trap.
And the Female Lead she was talking about all this time was of course, Bai Yunxian!
***
At the same time, Bai Mansion, West Great hall.
"What marriage proposal? I already said that I Don't want to marry anyone, father!" the beautiful girl who was standing in the room said with eyes full of disbelief.
She had beautiful and delicate features along with her long black hair that fell loose over her shoulders, she narrowed her sharp and fierce red ruby eyes as she looked at her father who was standing in front of her with both his hands in his waist.
Aside from the fact that she was twenty two years old this year, she was tall and had broad shoulders.
Bai Yunxian had a body that mostly resembled a man, and Bai Qin wouldn't have believed that she was a man, if he didn't confirm her identity by sending a wet nurse to assure her gender.
He was already seeing her as a thorn in his eyes, but she also refused to get married after her coming of age.
She even threatened him with her life till he gave up on her marriage. But still, this was too late to get her married.
No one will take her in even as a concubine because of her age, and this is how she became trash, good for nothing Miss of the Bai family.
So when the letter came from the Yun family for her hand in marriage, he didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Bai Yunxian retorted when she heard the reason why her father asked her to come here today.
"YOU DON'T WANT TO? FINE, IF YOU DON'T GET MARRIED, THEN DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT GETTING YOUR MOTHER TO HAVE A DOCTOR!" Bai Qin threatened her with a remark that she can't avoid.
"All of your sisters are already married, they even have children. But you, as the eldest of all of them, didn't even get married till now! You are a shame in our general's mansion!" he yelled angrily at Bai Yunxian.
She became silent after the threat. All this while, she was only holding back herself because of her mothers poor health.
All this time, Bai Yunxian suffered through all the hardships and all the humiliations, Just for the sake of her bedridden mother.
But whatever it is, she really wanted to avoid this marriage thing. And this was also the reason why she didn't show up in any banquets or anywhere.
'Looks like I can't escape from this, no matter whatever I do,' she smiled bitterly as she looked at her fathers disgusted face.
"Which family is it this time?" Bai Yunxian asked him in a low dispirited voice.
"It's from the Yun family, their youngest son Yun Shu is interested in you. He asked for your hand specifically," Bai Qin was glotting when he said that, but Bai Yunxian looked up at him in disbelief.
'Did I hear it wrong just now?' Bai Yunxian didn't believe it.
"Did-did you really see this right? Was it really Prince Yun Shu?" she asked him to confirm it herself.
"Yeah, it's him indeed." Bai Qin nodded his head to confirm it.
"Prince Yun Xuan also said in the letter that Prince Yun Shu will come here in person, specially with betrothal gifts to propose marriage officially."
"I don't know what has gotten into him, he wants to marry such a retard like you. But anyway, as long as the marriage is confirmed…" he glared at Bai Yunxian.
"Don't try something stupid, I guess you didn't forget that your mothers life is in my hands!"
He really didn't wish to let her continue to be the burden and shame of his house. So he literally kicked her out after he finished what he needed to say.
Bai Yunxian came out of the room, still in a daze. She slowly dragged her body in her courtyard.
'Yun Shu? Why does he suddenly wish to marry me?'
'Or could it be that his soul regretted after he died without playing with my life? And now he wants to fulfill his part as well?' She smiled bitterly as she went inside her room.
'How long? Just how long do I have to continue this circle?'
'I really want to die… once and for all.'
***
Bai Yunxian entered the room, only to hear a weak but anxious voice calling her, "Yun'er, did you come back?"
She his the bitter smile on her face as she went close to the sick woman lying in the bed.
The woman looked just like her, anyone that saw her can imagine easily how beautiful the woman was in her youth.
But now, she was lying sick with no one to look after her.
She went closer as she sat by her side on the bed and picked up one of her bonny hands as she replied with a gentle voice, "Yes, I'm here. Mother."
"What happened? Why did your father call you again? Did something bad happen again? I…" the woman wasn't able to talk the rest as she suddenly started coughing.
"Here! Drink some warm water, mother!" She quickly helped her to drink water as her eyes welled up in tears.
She can't stand to watch her mother die like this for once again, so she took the decision right away.
'Fine! I'll get married!' It's nothing new for her to suffer like this. Even if she has to suffer, at least she wanted to make sure of her mothers safety.
"It's nothing much, mother. Just that father found a good marriage proposal for me, so this time, I can't avoid this anymore. I'm getting married!" She said in a weak voice.
