Chapter 880 Happiness Is to Wait for Her to Grow Up

Shao Caihuan was also looking at Shao Wanru with envy and sadness in her eyes. After so many things had happened, she now understood that her previous dream was just some wishful thinkings.

She lowered her head slightly with the veil still covering her face, which had not recovered yet. And it was not certain whether it could make a full recovery. Thinking that she, a woman with such an ugly face, dared to dream of Prince Chen before, she felt a deep sense of inferiority.

How could Prince Chen fall in love with a disfigured girl like her? Moreover, she had nearly got her whole family in jail. Perhaps, she had some delusions in the past, but now they were all gone.

Shao Cailing went to sit beside Shao Caihuan, who looked sad, so Cailing held her hands and called her in a comforting voice, “Sister!”

Shao Caihuan shook her head and took a deep breath, telling Shao Cailing not to worry about her. After experiencing that, she no longer kept any fantasies in her mind. She only hoped her family was safe and sound. She seemed to have been bewitched before!

Perhaps it was because she had been suppressed by Shao Yanru all the time. After she got rid of Shao Yanru, she started to become arrogant.

Shao Caihuan raised her eyes with a wry smile and looked at Shao Wanru enviously. “Fifth Sister is a lucky woman. When I saw Prince Chen’s attitude towards her that day, I knew that he was in love with her. Who else in the capital city could make Prince Chen, who is as handsome as a painting figure, care about her so much?”

People said that Prince Chen was too weak to get married, but the royal family never care about that. Even if Prince Chen was dying, he would still get married as he should have done.

As for the fact that there was no Princess Chen until now, it was merely that no women before Shao Wanru could catch his heart.

Shao Caihuan stayed in the Buddha Hall and meditated for a few days, which had reminded her of a lot of things. If things about the new couple would go on as she had imagined, her Fifth Sister was very lucky!

How fortunate it was that there was a man in the world who was willing to wait for her to grow up? Moreover, such a man came from the royal family.

Three years ago, Fifth Sister was still a child, but Prince Chen had reached the marriage age.

Thinking of this, she felt that she was as ridiculous as a clown before. Even if she was as beautiful as before, she couldn’t beat Fifth Sister, let alone now.

Even when Shao Yanru had a good reputation, Prince Chen didn’t fall in love with her. According to this point, Shao Caihuan gave in.

There were some blessings in her envious eyes. She sincerely hoped that Shao Wanru would be happy. There were many girls in Marquis Xing’s Mansion in this generation, but the first few ones had no good end!

“Third Sister, I didn’t mean to offend you that day. Please forgive me!” A gentle voice suddenly came to her ears. It was Zhao Xiran’s voice.

“Sister Zhao!” Shao Caihuan’s face turned cold.

“Third Sister…” Zhao Xiran looked guilty and sad. When she was about to explain, she was interrupted by Shao Caihuan. “Sister Zhao, today is Fifth Sister’s big day. Don’t mention those sorrows in the past. Let’s say that I misunderstood you before. Please forgive me!”

Shao Caihuan was very clear, and she didn’t argue whose fault it was. At this point, she didn’t have any other thoughts. The reason why she made trouble at Zhao Xiran’s bridal chamber was that she was afraid that her parents would get involved in this matter. In addition, she couldn’t explain it clearly, so she could only lead her grandma’s attention to Zhao Xiran.

The matter had passed, and it was no longer something that could be pursued.

It was impossible for them to be as close as before. Zhao Xiran was merely her eldest sister-in-law from another branch. Naturally, they would not be close.

Zhao Xiran wanted to say something more, but Shao Caihuan looked away. She knew that it wouldn’t help though she tried to talk with Shao Caihuan again.

Shao Jie’er was sitting in a corner, rubbing her handkerchief and casting a look at Zhao Xiran and Shao Caihuan. She was almost invisible.

Zhao Xiran and Shao Caihuan talked in a little low voice, and it was noisy in the room. Shao Jie’er could not hear what they were talking about, but she was sure that they weren’t having a happy conversation. She rolled her eyes, called a servant girl over, and was about to give her an order. But when she turned around, she saw Zhao Xiran was looking at her.

They looked into each other’s eyes. Shao Jie’er panicked, but Zhao Xiran showed a slight smile and moved her lips silently.

“Be careful!” Shao Jie’er knew what Zhao Xiran wanted to tell her though she didn’t make a sound, and she panicked.

The servant girl she called was already standing in front of her. Seeing her stunned, the servant girl called her, “Second Miss!”

“It’s nothing. You can leave now!” Shao Jie’er waved her hand and said. She did want to cause some trouble, but now she didn’t dare to do it. Zhao Xiran had noticed her, and her silent warning made Shao Jie’er afraid and dare not to act rashly. After thinking for a while, she gave up taking out the other handkerchief in her sleeve.

She couldn’t see through Zhao Xiran, not knowing whether she would help her or Shao Wanru.

At this time, Shao Jie’er felt that it was better not to act rashly. Moreover, Zhao Xiran’s words were an obvious warning.

The handkerchief in her sleeve was the same as those of hers, but it had the character “Shao” embroidered on it and it had been fumigated by Shao Wanru’s favorite incense. People were prone to think that such a handkerchief belonged to Shao Wanru.

If such a handkerchief was found on a man on such a happy day, Shao Wanru’s reputation would be ruined.

However, Shao Jie’er suddenly did not dare to make that happen anymore…

Shao Wanru’s head was covered with a veil, so she could not see what was going on around. However, Yujie had been keeping an eye on the several Misses, so she naturally saw that Shao Jie’er called the servant girl and then asked her to leave after having eye contact with Eldest Young Madam. She had an intuition that there must be something wrong with Shao Jie’er.

Second Miss was the kind of person who liked making trouble.

Yujie had seen that Shao Jie’er silently withdraw her hand from her sleeve.

When no one was paying attention to them, she secretly told Shao Wanru what Shao Jie’er had just done in a low voice as she tidied up Shao Wanru’s collar.

Shao Wanru said in a low voice, “Ask Qing’er to keep an eye on her later!” Yujie nodded.

The bridegroom’s people had arrived outside. No one had expected that Prince Chen would come to pick her up in person.

Whether it was in terms of his identity or his health, everyone had thought that he couldn’t come in person. And Marquis Xing’s Mansion had got ready for such a situation.

But they were all shocked and slapped in the face when they saw Prince Chen, who looked more handsome than ever in red clothes matching his black hair, show up in front of the Marquis Xing’s Mansion. Prince Chen came to pick up the bride in person!

There was a smile on Chu Liuchen’s face, which made him very gentle and elegant. Dressed in a red brocade robe, he looked handsome with a jade-like face and red lips.

He didn’t come alone but was followed by a group of his brothers from the royal family, including Prince Yue, Prince Zhou, and Prince Xin, which gave people the chance to see the four outstanding sons of the royal family at once! There must be the next Emperor among them! Thinking of this, many people screamed with excitement.

Apart from these royal brothers, some princes and dukes from Princesses’ mansions also attended. All of them were remarkable nobles, and their presence on the wedding day had caused a stir in the whole capital city. Fortunately, the route to take the bride had been cleaned. Otherwise, no one knew when they would get to Marquis Xing’s Mansion.

These nobles were not only of high status but also talented and knowledgeable. On their way to the bride’s room, they broke the obstacles set by Marquis Xing’s Mansion quickly.

Shao Wanru heard footsteps coming towards her though she was surrounded by loud laughter. She could hear Prince Chen’s voice. It should be Chu Liuchen’s coming! Her face was inexplicably hot.

According to customs in the capital city, first the bridegroom entered the bride’s room, but he must leave and wait outside the mansion. Then the bride’s elder brother carried the bride out of the mansion.

Chu Liuchen stood in front of Shao Wanru and looked at her, who was wearing a red veil. His eyes became deeper and deeper and filled with joy that could not be seen in the past. After putting the jade apple in front of Shao Wanru, he turned around, left the room with all his royal brothers, and waited outside.

He walked as if on wings. Those girls felt more and more jealous when they saw his vigorous steps. Wasn’t Prince Chen said to be in poor health?

The Lucky Lady put the jade apple in Shao Wanru’s hand while saying auspicious words and then helped Shao Wanru up.

Shao Hua’an had been waiting at the door for a long time. When Shao Wanru came out, he carried Shao Wanru to the gate.

Shao Wanru had no parents. Old Madam of Marquis Xing’s Mansion and Rui’an Great Elder Princess were sitting in the main seats of the hall outside.

Rui’an Great Elder Princess had won this honor when she fought with Old Madam of Marquis Xing’s Mansion. At this time, she was sitting high. When she saw Shao Hua’an come out with Shao Wanru on his back, her eyes turned wet for a moment.

Shao Wanru stopped in front of them. After she bowed to the two elders, Rui’an Great Elder Princess couldn’t help wiping her tears. she choked with sobs. While Old Madam, who didn’t seem to be so powerful now, looked very calm. She just wiped the corners of her eyes gently with a handkerchief and then gave clear orders.

Shao Wanru bowed to the two elders again, and then left with sadness amid the cry of Rui’an Great Elder Princess.

Tears fell across her face. In her last life, she got married too, but no one cried for her at that time.

Madam Dowager and Shui Ruolan were gone. How could Madam Di care about her? Madam Di plotted against her and was eager to expel her as soon as possible.

She shed tears in silence, with the drops of tears hitting the ground in front of her.

In this life, she finally found a family that belonged to her, which, for her, was the most precious. To guard the new family, she would never be beaten by them!

The bridal sedan chair was parked at the gate. It was not an ordinary small sedan chair, but a splendid sedan chair driven by eight servants.

Shao Wanru didn’t calm down until getting on the bridal sedan chair. She heard the sound “rise the sedan chair”, and she was lifted steadily.

The bridal sedan chair did not go straight to Prince Chen’s Mansion. It circled half of the capital city, passed the main gate of the palace, and then went to Prince Chen’s Mansion.

People in the capital city had seen Prince Chen, who rarely showed up in front of others because of his illness. For the first time, the pale and weak Prince Chen became lively in people’s eyes.

It turned out that Prince Chen was not as sick as others had said. Prince Chen was a handsome man! Did they misunderstand something before?

A person happened to come out through the gate of the palace when the bridal sedan chair was passing by, he stopped and whispered to the people around him, “Does Chu Liuchen have ulterior motives?”
