Chapter 7: Living Hades

Yu Niaoniao said lazily, “At first, I was a little worried that they would use the marriage to manipulate me. Now that the emperor has personally bestowed a marriage upon me, no one can think of making an issue out of my marriage.”

Marriage these days was based on the words of the matchmaker and the order of the parents. As the party involved, Yu Niaoniao did not have any autonomy at all.

If Marquis Shun’an and Madam Jiang were determined to make her marry a fool, the rest of her life would be over.

Dang Gui, however, was worried.

“But I heard that Prince Lang kills people like flies. Countless souls have died under his blade. What if he bullies you after you get married?”

Yu Niaoniao looked indifferent. “I can’t beat him or run away. What else can I do? I can only lie flat and let him bully me.” 4

Dang Gui was speechless.

She knew her lady well enough to be unsurprised by the answer. 1

So she was prepared.

She pulled out two books and shoved them into Yu Niaoniao’s hands.

“Take a look at these two transcripts, Miss. You might find something.”

Yu Qianqian casually flipped through the storybook and realized that it was about love after marriage.

There were also a lot of colored fragments mixed in.

Her expression gradually became subtle.

“You have quite the taste, Dang Guio.”

Dang Gui said shyly, “This is one of my treasures. It contains a lot of knowledge between husband and wife. If you’re going to be bullied, why don’t you change the way you’re bullied?” 11

Yu Niaoniao smiled slyly.

Dang Gui seemed to know quite a lot.

She put away her book and lectured her righteously.

“Oh Dang Gui, it’s harmful to the body and mind to read too much of such words. Give me all your treasures and I’ll bear all the harm for you.” 4

Dang Gui was speechless.

Yu Niaoniao had been reading the transcripts in the ancestral hall all night. 3

She caught a cold and fell ill the next day. 2

After the family doctor examined her, he said that she had caught a cold. Fortunately, it was not serious. She would recover after taking some medicine and resting for a few days.

Dang Gui sent the doctor away and turned around to see her mistress getting up from the bed.

“Miss, the doctor said you have to rest more. You can’t move around yet.”

Yu Niaoniao changed from her sickly appearance and said energetically.

“I just have a slight cold. It’s not a big problem. Go and bring out the small stove. We’ll have a barbecue today!”

Dang Gui quickly reacted. “Were you pretending just now?” 2

Just now, Yu Niaoniao was lying on the bed weakly, as if she could die at any moment causing everyone to be frightened.

Yu Xuan quickly put on her shoes and said happily. 8

“The only way they’ll stop bothering me while I’m convalescing is if I act serious. Don’t just stand there. Prepare the carbon fire. I’ll get the condiments.”

Thinking of delicious roasted meat, she was full of energy!

…

Because of Yu Niaoniao, Yu Kangtai had been very angry for the past two days.

Madam Jiang coaxed him for a long time.

When he was in a good mood, Madam Jiang suggested.

“Instead of being cooped up at home, why don’t you take the kids out for a walk?”

Yu Kangtai thought this was a good idea and readily agreed.

“You’re still the thoughtful one.”

Madam Jiang smiled and asked someone to call her children over.

Her son’s name was Yu Sheng. He was fifteen this year. Her daughter’s name was Yu Pingping. She was fourteen this year. 4

Yu Sheng looked like his mother and his eyebrows were even gentler. However, he had the bearing of the eldest son of the family. He was a gentleman and was as exquisite as jade.

Yu Pingping , on the other hand, looked more like her father. Her eyes were huge, and her hair was black and shiny. Her eyebrows were thin and willowy, and her figure was slender. There was even some baby fat on her pretty face, making her look very cute.

The siblings greeted their parents.

Seeing how obedient and sensible they were, Yu Kangtai smiled so hard that the corners of his eyes crinkled.

At this moment, he had completely forgotten about that unfilial daughter of his.

Until the butler ran in to report.

“My lord, my lady, the Prince of Lang is here!”

Yu Kangtai’s smile froze.

Why is that living King of Hell here?! 1
