The fate was changed, the mistress of the Hou family was slapped in the face and made money to win

Chapter 270 Blind Eyes and Heart Choosing the Wrong Path

Han Nian'an was suddenly stunned.

The Gongsun family?

"Which Gongsun family?"

"There are only a few members of the Gongsun family left in the imperial city, and the one who is naturally the one with Lord Gongsun in the Hanlin Academy." Liu Yuan said.

Han Nian'an's heartbeat quickened, and he looked at Cai Qingyun again and almost blurted out, "You married that idiot?"

The smile on Cai Qingyun's face froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal.

"Mrs. Han, please be careful with your words. Although my husband is indeed mentally handicapped, as his wife, I don't want to see him being humiliated and ridiculed. I can regard your words just now as a slip of the tongue, but please be careful with your words, and don't say such things again."

Cai Qingyun's frank attitude of protection made Han Nian'an's face change even more.

She obviously married a fool, so how could Cai Qingyun be so happy?

Or was it that she was filled with resentment in her heart but was just trying to pretend that she didn't care?

Thinking of this, Han Nian'an stared at Cai Qingyun carefully, trying to see through the other party's disguise.

However, to her disappointment, Cai Qingyun had a calm look and a composed expression, and his face looked very good. He really looked like he was having a very good time.

Han Nian'an was distracted for a moment, muttering: "How is this possible..."

"What's impossible?" Liu Yuan asked Han Nian'an.

The latter gritted his teeth and couldn't help but say to Cai Qingyun again: "Are you willing to marry a fool..."

Before he could utter the last word, Han Nian'an bit his tongue and changed his words when he met Cai Qingyun's cold eyes.

"Don't you feel aggrieved?"

"Why should I feel wronged?" Cai Qingyun asked with a chuckle, "Although my husband is mentally retarded, he is like a child, easy to coax and persuade. My parents-in-law feel sorry for me, and they usually make up for it in various ways. They are always kind and have never said a harsh word. When I have nothing to do, I go out for a walk and drink tea with Ayuan. They never stop or restrict me. I live a very comfortable life like this."

Han Nian'an listened in a daze, subconsciously comparing the life that Cai Qingyun described with his current situation.

If she had agreed to marry into the Gongsun family at the beginning, would she be the one living this kind of life now?

Although she has a foolish husband, at least she doesn't have to suffer as much as she does now.

Moreover, now that Zhou Yihong no longer even sees me, it makes no difference whether I have this husband or not.

Seeing Han Nian'an in a daze, Liu Yuan spoke at the right time: "Forget it, Ayun, there is no point in telling her this. After all, coming to the Marquis' Mansion to be a concubine is the choice she wants. What's more, there is no chance to regret it now."

Han Nian'an's heart trembled violently.

Yes, now, she has no chance to regret.

But looking at Cai Qingyun in her silk clothes, resentment and regret still gnawed at her heart.

Han Nian'an didn't even know whether she said goodbye or not. She walked towards her yard in a daze, but after taking a few steps, she couldn't help but look back at Cai Qingyun.

He stared at her dress and jewelry, his eyes so red that they seemed to bleed.

Cai Qingyun stood there calmly, allowing Han Nian'an to look at her. Only after all the light in Han Nian'an's eyes faded away and he withdrew his gaze and left completely did she speak to Liu Yuan.

"Why do you have to let her know about this?"

She already knew about Han Nian'an and the Gongsun family when they got engaged.

Although no news came out at the time, by asking carefully, we can probably piece together the cause and effect.

It was nothing more than that the Han family initially wanted to rely on Han Nian'an to win over Lord Gongsun, but later Han Nian'an was unwilling to do so and caused a bunch of scandals, which not only ruined his own reputation, but also angered the Gongsun family.

"Ayun, you don't understand. Although she seems to have lost her power in this mansion, as long as she is still in this mansion and is still Zhou Yihong's concubine, I have to keep her in my hands and not let her cause any trouble. Otherwise, I, as the legal wife, will also be held responsible."

According to the current situation, the probability of Han Nian'an regaining favor is very small, so she is not worried about this.

However, Han Nian'an faintly revealed a sense of unwillingness and dissatisfaction, as if she had done nothing wrong and that it was all the fault of others for her current situation, which really made her dislike her.

So she had to let Han Nian'an know that she ended up in this situation because she was blind and chose the wrong path. Especially since the life she once looked down upon could still be colorful in the hands of others.

Cai Qingyun looked at Liu Yuan and couldn't help but smile, "You have really changed. You are more thoughtful now, and your temperament is very different from before."

"After all, I have been through the gates of hell, so how can I not change? Now I just want to secure my position as the first wife of the Marquis' Mansion and earn a place to settle down. If I can also find some benefits for my family, that would be even better."

"Yes, I think so too. So I don't care about the fools and the ridicule. After all, the Gongsun family is the best choice for me."

The two smiled at each other, with a tacit understanding in their eyes.

On the other side, after Han Nian'an returned to the yard, he stood there blankly for a long time.

The look was so strange that a maid could not help but ask. But Han Nian'an remained silent, as if he did not hear the maid's words at all.

Just when the maid was puzzled and about to leave, Han Nian'an suddenly burst into tears.

The wailing and roaring scared everyone in the yard.

No one dared to step forward, but just watched from afar as Han Nian'an fell to the ground and cried.

When the news reached Liu Yuan, she just said indifferently, "It's up to her," and then ordered the maid to close the gate of Xifeng Courtyard, so as not to let Han Nian'an's crying disturb Qin and Zhou Yihong who were about to return home.

Han Nian'an cried for an hour, and finally stopped when he felt exhausted.

She was carried back to her room by the maids. She lay on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling. No one knew when she fell asleep.

But from that day on, and in the following few days, Han Nian'an became completely quiet. He stayed in Xifeng Courtyard all day long, not even leaving the courtyard. It seemed as if all the energy had been drained from his body.

Quiet and dilapidated.

Soon, the day for bidding for the land in the west of the city will be tomorrow.

In Guangyun Tower, Jiang Suining told Mei Qinniang about all the preparations he had made during this period.

"Do you think there are any omissions?" Jiang Suining asked.

Mei Qiniang shook her head, "No, it's very detailed and comprehensive."

As she spoke, her eyes were slightly tinged with depth, and she couldn't help but sigh.

"Ms. Jiang, you've prepared much more than I expected at first."
