Watching the two sisters leave, Nan Marquis Furen smiled, "Speaking of which, this Princess Ding speaks in a gentle manner and has good manners. If she was a daughter of an ordinary family, who knows how aggrieved she would be. No wonder Old Madam Hua praised Princess Ding so much. " Everyone agreed. They all had daughters. If Princess Ding did not marry, who knew if it would be their daughter's turn to marry into the Ding King's Residence. The Ding King's Residence had a high status, but Prince Ding did not have any power in the court. Furthermore, he was a disabled person who could not walk. If their daughter, who they had painstakingly raised, were to marry into his residence, wouldn't their hearts ache? Therefore, towards Ye Li who married into the Ding King's Residence first, it was inevitable that they would feel sympathy and pity for her. Looking at this girl, she was only fifteen or sixteen years old. To be able to have such a calm and composed temperament after marrying such a husband, she was indeed not bad.
On the contrary, Princess Consort Li, who was once envied by all the noble ladies in the capital, was a little disdainful. Wasn't she the number one beauty who was proficient in the four arts? She did not even know when to advance or retreat when interacting with others. No one knew what Prince Li saw in her. She did not seem like she came from the same residence as Princess Ding. Of course, everyone only kept this evaluation in their hearts and would never say it in front of the Virtuous Consort Zhao.
Ye Li brought Ye Ying to walk in the garden. Although Ye Li tried her best to choose a remote place to walk, the two of them had different statuses and attracted a lot of attention. Fortunately, everyone knew their limits. They understood that Princess Ding and Princess Consort Li wanted to reminisce about the past and did not come forward to disturb them. Ye Li glanced at Ye Ying's aggrieved and resentful look and frowned. She asked helplessly, "What's the matter with you? Mo Jingli has not married Consort Ping yet. Who are you trying to show your resentful face to? "
Ye Ying glared at her with resentment and said faintly, "Do you think … Prince truly loves me?"
Ye Li rolled her eyes in her heart. If he truly loved you, there wouldn't be this scene, alright?
"Back then … he clearly said that he only liked me and would only treat me well."
Ye Li tried her best not to let her numb face become distorted. Her heart twitched when she imagined Mo Jingli's expressionless face expressing his feelings to Ye Ying. Young lady, how good must your eyesight be in order to make yourself believe that he's sincere to you? You don't even need to show me any expression.
"Why … Why has everything changed since we got married?" Ye Ying asked in a daze.
"Well …" Ye Li felt that she was suddenly possessed by the Virgin Mary and wanted to comfort Ye Ying. "Isn't there a saying … Marriage is the grave of love? Since you're already lying in the grave, don't think about the past. "The sooner you die, the sooner you can reincarnate. Love? Don't be silly. That's something beyond the grave. Ye Ying was stunned by her sudden strange words. She lowered her eyes and muttered in a daze, "Grave … I, I really shouldn't have gotten married?" Ye Li only wanted to slap her own mouth. She continued to talk nonsense without changing her expression, "Of course not. Men should get married when they're of age and women should get married when they're of age. Even if you don't go to this grave, you have to go to other graves. At least this one looks better, doesn't it? You see, these young ladies and young masters are all deeply affectionate before they get married. But have you read any novels about what happens after those scholars and beauties get married? "
Ye Ying was stunned and shook her head. Ye Li said with a straight face, "That's right. Before marriage, both parties are in love with each other and have special feelings for each other. After marriage, there will be daily necessities. Don't be sad. At least 99% of the people in the capital live like this. No one will laugh at you. "
Ye Ying stared at Ye Li strangely, as if she never knew her. After a long time, she said unwillingly, "Why aren't you like this? There are only you and Prince Ding in the Ding Palace. "
Oh, young lady, are you envious of me? Ye Li waved her hand and said, "Our situation is different. You see, if I ask you to marry our Prince, you definitely won't agree, right? I guess most people won't agree. This way … Won't Prince be mine alone? "
"Is it like this?" Ye Ying lowered her head and pondered. Ye Li was not interested in knowing what she was thinking about. She still remembered that she didn't really come to chat with Ye Ying and give her psychological counseling. Seeing Ye Ying lost in thought, Ye Li casually asked, "Speaking of which … I really didn't think that you would like Prince Li. I thought you would like a cultured and elegant young master. "
Ye Ying regained her senses and her face turned red. Biting her lips, she stared at her and said, "Are you here to blame me for stealing Prince Li or are you here to laugh at me?"
Don't, I'm here to thank you. Ye Li held her hand and acted like she was deeply in love, "Although we are not born from the same mother, we are still sisters, aren't we? Did Fourth Sister really think that I would fall out with you because of a man? In the past, I was only angry that you didn't tell me the truth. Although we weren't born well since young, when have I ever snatched the things you like from you? If you had told me properly at that time, we would have settled the engagement in private and wouldn't have caused such a commotion and made everyone lose face. "
Ye Ying looked suspiciously at the sincere Ye Li in front of her. Thinking back, she had indeed taken many things from Ye Li since young, but Ye Li never said anything (That was because she couldn't be bothered with you). It was just that at that time, she couldn't wait for Ye Li's engagement to be known by everyone so that she would lose face. Who would have thought that in the end, she would be the one to lose face? Thinking of this, even Ye Ying's prideful heart couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, but she would never admit it. Ye Li didn't look at her expression and sighed regretfully, "Speaking of which, I always thought that Fourth Sister would be matched with the capital's number one scholar or something in the future, a perfect match. Really … the world makes fools of people. "
Ye Ying blushed. Of course, she had also fantasized about what her ideal husband would look like. She had also fantasized about a handsome man in white gently holding her hand and gazing at her with deep affection. However, later on, she met Prince Li. His identity as a Prince and the joy of trampling Ye Li under his feet made her gradually forget her dreams. When she truly fell in love with Prince Li, she felt that it was just her childish thoughts when she was young. But now, the ideal husband that she truly loved treated her like this … If … if it was someone else, they definitely wouldn't treat me like this … Ye Ying had some vague thoughts in her heart.
"You … you really don't hate me?" Ye Ying looked at her hesitantly.
Ye Li smiled faintly and said, "You said it last time, wasn't that Father's idea? Maybe Father thinks that I'm not suitable for Prince Li. But now it seems that Father was right, Prince Li and I are indeed not suitable. I'm very satisfied with my current life, and Prince Ding is also very good. " Looking at Ye Li's gentle and tolerant smile, the hesitation in Ye Ying's eyes gradually disappeared. She bit the corner of her lips with some grievance and said, "Father didn't let me marry Prince Li because he knew that Prince Li would be like this, right? Mother always said that Father and Grandmother value you the most. Father must think that Prince Li isn't good, so he wants me to replace you! "Ye Li looked at the sky. That's your mother wanting you to hate me, okay? How come I don't see that the two at home value me? Looking at Ye Ying, Ye Li felt some pity for Minister Ye. This was the precious daughter that he doted on and spoiled in the palm of his hand.
