Chapter 232 -94: Yueying’s Marriage_2
Hua Lei asked in a low voice, “Miss, what’s wrong?”
Yueyao shook her head; she had to be cautious with her words. The dream-entrustment incident had spread all at once, and now she needed to think clearly before speaking about this matter. With these worries, Yueyao fell asleep.
Yuehuan received the news and talked to Maternal Aunt Su about the marriage arrangement. “Maternal Aunt, the match Madam found for Eldest Sister seems quite good.”
Maternal Aunt Su looked at her daughter’s naïve expression, “Lord Chen holds a Sixth Rank official position, and the eldest son of the Chen family has the title of Scholar. The second young master of the Chen family has good academic achievements too, and in a couple more years, if he becomes a Juren, we could seek an even better marriage. Now asking for Eldest Miss’s hand, what do you think they’re after? You haven’t considered that, have you?” There’s no such thing as a free lunch.
Yuehuan was startled. “Maternal Aunt, then what are they after?”
Maternal Aunt Su shook her head, “I’m not sure. It’s not your place to worry about this, and you wouldn’t understand. All you need to know is that pies don’t just fall from the sky.”
Yet Yuehuan couldn’t help but say, “Maternal Aunt, if there’s anything inappropriate with this marriage, we should tell mother. Otherwise, it might ruin Eldest Sister’s life.” Although she wasn’t close to Yueying and Yueying had many faults, Yuehuan couldn’t bear to see a girl thrown into a pit of fire.
Maternal Aunt Su glared at Yuehuan, “You must not speak further about this. Otherwise, the fire will spread to us.” Madam surely knows there’s something fishy about this business, but she thinks marrying into the Chen family will benefit Old Master’s career.
For the first time, Yuehuan felt deeply and truly that her fate was indeed in the hands of the Mo family; they could command life or death. How should she proceed like this all the time? She thought about resisting, but Maternal Aunt Su always followed the Mo family’s lead unquestioningly. How could she, as a daughter, oppose her own maternal aunt?
That night, Yuehuan also suffered from insomnia.
When Maternal Aunt Su went out, her expression was complex.
The next day during lessons, Yueyao noticed Yuehuan kept looking at her with a complicated gaze. Yueyao felt puzzled. What did this mean? Had she given something away? Yueyao thought carefully about her recent actions and shook her head; she had behaved correctly and had done nothing out of the ordinary.
When Yueyao looked at her, Yuehuan quickly asked, “Third Sister, is something the matter?”

Yueyao was surprised and, with a thought about the strange expressions of Yueying and Yuebing, laughed and said, “I just wanted to ask how the lip rouge matter is progressing?”
Yuehuan didn’t expect Yueyao to be so cooperative. “Third Sister, are you also interested in contributing? Come, let’s discuss this in detail.” After much thought, she believed Yueyao was the most suitable person to stir up this marriage arrangement. So, she wanted to discuss it with her.
The two moved to a corner and Yuehuan spoke in a hushed voice, “Third Sister, after hearing about the marriage Eldest Sister is about to agree to, I felt something wasn’t right. Is the Chen family setting a trap for Eldest Sister? No matter how you look at it, Eldest Sister and the second young master Chen are not a suitable match. Third Sister, shouldn’t we alert our grandmother?”
Yueyao was extremely surprised and hadn’t expected Yuehuan to bring up this matter with her. “Without solid evidence, even though I had someone investigate outside, nothing inappropriate was found.”
Yuehuan was shocked and hadn’t expected Yueyao to have actually sent someone to investigate; it must not have been easy. She had always thought Yueyao was rather cold-hearted. “You also think there’s something wrong?”
Yueyao nodded, “I do think something is off.” She didn’t dare reveal that the second young master Chen had a hidden illness; he looked fine but might pass away suddenly.
Yuehuan glanced at Yueyao and thought, keep pretending, just keep on pretending. A reborn girl with cheats would definitely have a clear understanding of Yueying’s marriage, and now, she was still pretending to be unaware of everything. If it weren’t for her guess, this act could truly fool everyone. Well, she knew Yueyao’s temperament; if you didn’t go along with her, she would turn her face away and ignore you. “Grandmother wants to settle Eldest Sister’s marriage quickly, but what does the Chen family want?” Yuehuan had been wondering about this the previous day. If the marriage was for the benefit of both families, that would be fine, but if there was a problem with young master Chen, then it could be a disaster for Yueying.
Yuehuan, in fact, was wondering if the second young master was impotent. Otherwise, why would he be in such a rush to get married?
Yueyao shook her head, “I don’t know.” In fact, the Chen family just wanted to quickly secure a marriage for their son, to have someone to look after him in the future. To think of it, the Chen family’s actions were disgusting enough, hiding their own child’s illness while arranging a marriage, they were just toying with someone’s life.
Yuehuan originally wanted to pry some more information out, but unfortunately, Yueyao was tight-lipped, not spilling a single word. Deflated, Yuehuan felt Third Sister’s mouth was sealed too tight; trying to extract any news was impossible. Seeing Yuebing approaching, Yuehuan raised her voice and said, “Third Sister, my lip rouge is being improved, and it won’t be long before it’s ready. It will surely make money. Third Sister, I still hope you will invest. If we profit, it could be private money for the four of us sisters.”
