Chapter 19

Back in the room, Hui Yimei didn't even feel like eating dinner.

After a hasty meal and a casual wash, she went to bed early, asked Xiaohong to help her get out of the tent and turned off the light.

But she sat in the dark in a daze.

in fact……

The second elder brother and the second sister-in-law didn't say anything just now, but that subtle feeling that can only be understood and cannot be expressed in words... still set off a stormy sea in the depths of Hui Yimei's heart!

After a rain in the afternoon, the weather turned clear. Although it was late at night, there was a full moon hanging high in the night sky, and the silver-white cold moonlight slanted into her room, illuminating everything. It's even colder...

She hugged her arms, sat on the bed with her knees bent and asked herself:

Hui Yimei, when you can't change the status quo with all your strength, you, will you... take advantage of others?

She bit her lip.

In the afternoon, the seemingly meaningful words that the second brother said to her behind someone's back rang in her ears again,

"It is said that the British royal family intends to choose a marriage for Chengxuan, but Chengxuan's mother hopes that her daughter-in-law will be a Chinese lady with pure blood and family background. Visiting his grandfather's grave, but actually came back to see each other..."

Hui Yi clenched her cheeks tightly.

She couldn't ignore the strong confession in Chengxuan's eyes when he looked at her; moreover, the desire was so strong that he barely concealed it...

This made Hui Yimei a little frightened!

She knew that her brother and sister-in-law had already hinted at her quietly.

——If you want to get rid of the Lin family's marriage, Ai Chengxuan is an excellent candidate...

Compared with Chengxuan, what is the Lin family?
The Lin family is just a rich man from the countryside, but Ai Chengxuan is a nobleman from the previous dynasty; if the Hui family can climb up to such an honor as Ai Chengxuan, Hui's second brother's career will directly benefit, Hui's mother will naturally have no objection , then what is the Lin family!
but……

Do you really want to use Ai Chengxuan? ? ?

First of all, is Ai Chengxuan someone she can afford?Although she doesn't want to marry into the Lin family, it doesn't mean she is willing to be with someone with such a complicated background...

Secondly, she has no experience with men.If it fails to be used, it will make Ai Chengxuan hate the Hui family instead, wouldn't the gain outweigh the loss?But now that she is in deep crisis of marriage contract, probably Ai Chengxuan is the only one who can really help her.

Huiyi's brows were confused.

There was an inexplicable sense of dullness in her heart, and she felt that she was going to be out of breath.

She got out of bed in the dark, walked to the table, poured out a glass of cold water, and drank it down in one gulp.

The cold liquid flowed down the throat to the stomach, barely suppressing the inexplicable fire in his heart.

After a while, Hui Yimei sighed.

Putting on her clothes, she walked to the window. She originally wanted to open the window wider to allow more ventilation, but as soon as her hand touched the window lattice, Chengxuan's pair of peach blossom eyes suddenly appeared in her mind...

She sighed again, turned around and walked back to the bed, threw off the clothes she was wearing, lifted the curtain and got on the bed.

But no matter what, she would never marry Lin Yuehong again in this life.

She fell into a deep sleep, but Hui Yimei began to have nightmares.

For a while, she dreamed that she in her previous life was wearing a Fengguanxia cloak and went to the Lin family to marry, but the one who lifted her hijab was Lin Yuean with a grinning face; It was Lin Yuehong looking at him with hatred and disgust again...

Hui Yimei panted heavily and sat up from the bed.

At this time, the sky was faintly white.

Xiaohong walked into the room lightly, and seeing Hui Yimei sitting up, she couldn't help being a little surprised, "Miss? You woke up so early today!"

"Pour me a glass of water." Hui Yimei said hoarsely.

Xiaohong was taken aback!
"Miss! Your voice..." Xiaohong said anxiously, "Hey! It must be because I stood by the window yesterday and caught a cold in the rain. Do you have a headache? Sore throat? Cough?"

Seeing Xiaohong's anxious appearance, Huiyi laughed "pooh".

"It's fine with me, but... my throat does hurt a bit. Go to the box to get some money, and go to the back door to see if there is anyone selling pears outside. If there are pears for sale, buy some pears and come back to make rock sugar stewed pears... " she told Xiaohong.

Xiaohong said, "I'll help you wash up first."

Hui Yi raised her eyebrows and shook her head, "I'll do it myself, you go quickly, my throat hurts."

Xiaohong had no choice but to go to the box to get a handful of money, and went downstairs slowly.

Hui Yimei cleaned her face, brushed her teeth, and then applied some cream on her face.

She saw her own face in the mirror... only to see that the person in the mirror was pale and haggard, her brows were unconsciously frowned, there was a thick cyan black circle under her eye sockets, and the original ruddy water chestnut At this moment, her beautiful lips also turned a light pink, revealing an unhealthy appearance.

Hui Yimei sighed.

Xiaohong soon came up with a tray.

"Miss, there are no pears for sale outside, and it's Mayday now... I've told the housekeeper to ask if there are any pears in the village. This is the rice soup I asked for in the kitchen... You can drink it first to moisten your throat !"

Hui Yi smiled at her.

After drinking a cup of sweet rice soup, Hui Yimei felt better.

Mother Hui suddenly sent her maid over, and asked the young lady to come over and talk.

Hui Yimei didn't think too much, and took Xiao Hong downstairs.

When she got to Hui's mother, she realized... Ai Chengxuan was there!

At this time, brothers, sisters-in-law, nephews and nieces from all rooms in the main room were present, and the hall was full of laughter and laughter, which was very lively; while Ai Chengxuan was wearing a white suit, sitting among the sisters-in-law and children, and the old man and woman The children talked and laughed happily, and they didn't seem to have the slightest sense of disobedience.

Hui Yimei didn't know what they were talking about.

But the eldest sister-in-law Sun laughed when she saw Hui Yimei, and waved to her.

Hui Yimei walked over and gestured towards Ai Chengxuan.

"Little sister, Chengxuan just told us that you are his junior sister?" Aunt Hui asked, holding Hui Yimei's hand.

Hui Yi smiled and nodded.

Everyone laughed.

"There is such a coincidence in this world!" Sister Hui sighed, "What a fate! Across such a wide sea, thousands of miles... no! Tens of thousands of miles away, why did you two meet each other?" Already!"

Hui Yimei tried her best to put on a smiling expression, and remained silent.

Ai Chengxuan didn't speak, just looked at her blankly.

Second Sister-in-law Hui watched the two with cold eyes, pondered for a while, and said with a smile, "Chengxuan, what movie did you mention just now, and what's its name?"

But Chengxuan didn't hear what Hui Ersao said.

Seeing him staring at Hui Yi's eyebrows unabashedly, the wives of Hui's family exchanged glances and snickered.

"Uh... ah?"

Chengxuan finally came to his senses, knowing that he had lost his composure.

However, he also quickly realized, "...Oh! That's "Adventures at Sea", a movie starring David Pokoff and Jennifer Stew...it's about the adventurer Peter on a voyage When I met a cannibal on a deserted island and rescued the princess from the cannibal..."

Aunt Hui smiled and said, "...last time, my little sister said that she wanted to go to the county town to watch a movie! Look, I have a companion right now!"

Ai Chengxuan immediately said politely, "No problem, let's arrange a movie, old ladies and ladies can go together."

Mother Hui waved her hand and said, "I'm getting old, I don't like that, go and go..."

Mrs. Hui sighed, "Hey! I really want to go, but ah, our old lady will have a birthday party in a few days...how can I be so busy!"

Second Wife Hui glanced at her sister-in-law and said, "Don't be afraid, sister-in-law, I'll help you..."

Hui Sansao pursed her lips and said with a smile, "I'm about to ask mother to show me! Mother, you see, we finally came back. I want Yingmin to accompany me back to my mother's house..."

Mother Hui nodded, "Yes! You should... let your sister-in-law arrange someone to take you there, and the children will follow along..."

Fourth Sister-in-law Hui glanced at Hui Yimei and said, "I heard that "Adventures at Sea" is very good! I've wanted to see it for a long time... It's just that Yonglin is too young, I, I can't leave, let's talk about it later! "

All eyes fell on Hui Yimei.

Mrs. Hui secretly looked at Hui's mother's expression, and she knew it well.

"Little sister, you and Chengxuan are senior brothers and sisters, and both are young people. Since the family members can't leave, you should do your best as a landlord for the family and greet Chengxuan well..." Sister Hui said to Hui Yimei .

Huiyi's brows were cold.

She was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said, "...OK."

Ai Chengxuan looked at her with piercing eyes.

Others in the room breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably.
