Chapter 119 Revenge
Shengsheng's matter has come to an end, and her brother's matter has been settled. Aying feels more peaceful at this time.

As soon as I woke up in the morning, Su Jian ran over excitedly, "Girl, it's snowing!!"

"It's snowing?" Aying was delighted.

Su Jian nodded repeatedly.

After all, I was a young girl, so I didn't even bother to put on my shoes. I quickly got out of bed and opened the window.

Suddenly, the snow-covered scene floated into Aying's heart.

"Girl, are you beautiful?" Su Jian felt much happier as she looked at the falling snowflakes.

"The pear blossoms are in full bloom, and the willow catkins are flying everywhere..." Ah Ying murmured as she looked at the flying snowflakes.

Su Jian suddenly remembered, "Girl, let's go pick plum blossoms. The plum blossoms blooming in the snow are so beautiful."

Ah Ying smiled leisurely, "Okay."

After a simple meal, Aying and Su Jian went to Yimeyuan to pick plum blossoms.

Afterwards, they went to Songhuayuan together.

"Mother Wang, our girl sent some plum blossoms to the lady." Su Jian raised her voice.

Then, Mother Wang opened the curtain and came out, "Young lady, come in quickly, it's snowing heavily outside."

A Ying took off her cloak.

Standing by the charcoal basin at the door, he warmed his hands and whispered, "Is Aunt feeling better?"

Mother Wang nodded, her face quite excited, "Much better, she even mentioned the prince's name this morning."

"Really?" Ah Ying really didn't expect it to get better so quickly.

After his body warmed up a little, he went into the inner room.

As soon as I looked up, I saw Guan Yulan sitting in a wheelchair, staring at a painting in a daze.

"Aunt?" Aying called softly.

Hearing the voice, Guan Yulan looked towards Aying with a calm expression.

"The plum blossoms outside are in full bloom. I'll send a few to my aunt." Aying didn't treat Guan Yulan as a patient and spoke to her as if she was chatting about family matters.

Afterwards, Ah Ying asked Su Jian to place the plum blossom in a prominent position, squatted down, looked at Guan Yulan and said, "Aunt, you have to get well soon, we are all waiting for you."

"Mother Wang, the prince will be busy during this period. If your aunt needs anything, you can always come to me." Aying said to Mother Wang.

Mother Wang said with a gentle look in her eyes, "Madam is right about you. You are the one with the richest heart in this mansion."

Ah Ying was stunned by Wang's praise, "Did my aunt really say that?"

Mother Wang nodded repeatedly. "When you risked your life to return to the mansion to appease everyone, Madam told me that you were a rare good woman who could protect the mansion with all your heart at that time. You don't care about grudges, and you are determined. You are the most generous person in the mansion."

Ah Ying's face brightened and she looked at Guan Yulan, feeling that she had an even greater responsibility to take care of those people who showed kindness to her.

When she returned to Songheyuan, Xie Chengyi was already waiting for her.

"Prince? Why are you back?" Aying asked in surprise as she saw that Xie Chengyi hadn't even changed his court robes.

Xie Chengyi said solemnly, "Your Majesty sent me to Linzhou and I left immediately. I was still worried, so I came back to see you."

"Linzhou? Now?" Aying looked at the heavy snow and was very confused.

"Yes, father will go with us, so the family will depend on you." Xie Chengyi looked solemn. The family could only be safe with him and his father at home. If they left Beijing, Liu Wutong might cause trouble, and then Aying would be the one to suffer.

"It's snowing heavily, what's the urgent matter?" Aying couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

Xie Chengyi pursed his lips. This matter really couldn't be discussed. He could only hug Aying and said, "It's really an emergency!" "The more you act like this, the more scared I am..." Aying held the corner of Xie Chengyi's clothes with worry in her eyes.

Xie Chengyi handed Ah Ying a jade token and said carefully: "If you are in danger, you can use this to find Jin Fang. He can help you!"

Looking at Xie Chengyi's deep eyes, Aying knew that she had to go on this trip.

After calming down her temper, she said, "You can't get into trouble. You can't." Ah Ying looked straight into Xie Chengyi's eyes and spoke to him word by word.

Xie Chengyi smiled slightly and stroked Aying's head, "Silly boy, we are just going to find out what happened, not to go to the battlefield."

Seeing Xie Chengyi finally relieved, Ah Ying let out a sigh of relief, "I'll wait for you at home!"

Xie Chengyi's eyes were deep as he hugged Ah Ying and whispered in her ear, "I'll marry you when I come back!"

Ah Ying looked at Xie Chengyi in shock, and when she was sure that he was serious, she nodded heavily.

Snowflakes were flying, and the whole place was white. Aying could not see anything except Xie Chengyi's footprints and back.

Holding the jade token tightly, Ah Ying silently said: I will marry you when you come back...

Because the news came suddenly, an hour had passed by the time everyone in the mansion received the news.

The grandmother had been feeling unwell for the past few days. When she heard that her son and grandson were leaving for Linzhou in the snow, she felt worried and anxious.

"It's almost the New Year. What could happen? Why are you in such a hurry?" Grandma leaned on her crutches, looking dissatisfied.

Ah Ying could only smile and comfort him: "The prince said that the matter that His Majesty ordered was just to check the situation, so it shouldn't be dangerous. Don't worry, the prince said that he will be back in ten days at most."

The old lady looked at Ah Ying suspiciously, "Is it true? Can you come back within ten days? No danger?"

Ah Ying nodded firmly, "You still don't believe me, I'm not lying to you!"

As the weather turned cold, the old lady felt a little sleepy, so she pulled Ah Ying's hand and said, "Ah Ying, you can't lie to me like those heartless people. Grandmother trusts you the most."

Ah Ying said docilely, "Well, Ah Ying understands. Grandma, go to sleep."

Only until Nanny Su came over to support the old lady did she slowly go to the inner room.

"Miss, do you feel that the old lady has aged a lot?" Su Jian asked in a worried voice.

"How can I not get old? There are so many things to do at home and it's so tiring." Aying said quietly.

"Sometimes I really feel that there are too many troubles in the mansion. After just two days of quiet time, something happens again. My scalp tightens when I hear someone report something." Su Jian sighed.

Ah Ying smiled in frustration. It was not just that there were too many troubles. It was simply that people were crazy and there were too many things to deal with.

The saying that when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey will be king is not said in vain.

Liu Wutong from Songbaiyuan was originally having tea in the teahouse, but rushed back when she heard the news. In the end, she was a step too late and didn't even get to see the Marquis. When she heard that the Marquis gave her a letter before leaving, she curled her lips and looked dissatisfied.

After opening it, he was even more furious when he read the content of the letter.

"Let Huo Aying be the head of the family? Who does she think she is? Can she be the head of this family?" Liu Wutong yelled three times in a row.

As luck would have it, Xie Chengfeng was walking in with a cane, and when he saw his mother jumping up and down, he asked, "Mom, what's wrong?"

Liu Wutong said unhappily, "Your father and your eldest brother went to Linzhou for work, and left a letter saying that Huo Aying would be the head of the family! Oh - isn't this a joke?"

Xie Chengfeng frowned, and after a moment, he sneered: "Mom, isn't this a godsend?"

Liu Wutong was startled, "What do you mean?"

"The time for revenge has come..."
