Unbridled Medical Expert Consort: Demon Prince, Be Good-Chapter 74.2 - Has the Dowry Been Properly Prepared

Chapter 74b: Has the Dowry Been Properly Prepared

Luo Qing Luan shook her head. Dai Yue was indeed easy to satisfy, without any guile at all. She certainly was unable to understand why Luo Cheng’s attitude had changed.

This father of hers, because of her birth mother having passed away in addition to Wang Xue Ru’s instigation, had misunderstood her for many years. At present, the warmth and affection ordinarily existing between a father and his daughter was basically no more. She also reconciled herself to this early on. Regardless of how Luo Cheng treated her, it mattered not. She already didn’t view him as a father.

Thinking of the mother who passed away, Luo Qing Luan inevitably thought of Nanny Song’s miserable death.

Her gaze hardened as Luo Qing Luan narrowed her eyes slightly. The corners of her mouth curved into a chilly smiling expression.

Then fine. Even though she didn’t want to marry Nalan Ye at all, since there was already no way to change it, she’s going to properly make use of her current status. The future Princess of Chu? Heh heh, she truly wanted to know, if after she formally married Nalan Ye one day and became the Princess of Chu, would Wang Xue Ru still dare to flaunt her airs as Father’s concubine in her presence? Would she still dare to carry out those malicious schemes?

Thinking of this, Luo Qing Luan smiled faintly, then glanced at Dai Yue. “Go. Dai Yue, follow me to Graceful Orchid Courtyard.”

Dai Yue was a bit astonished. “You can just instruct me if there’s something you need. Don’t you hate seeing the side madam the most?”

“But right now, I’d like to see Father’s Concubine very much.” Once the corners of her mouth curved up, she then rustled away.

Passing through the moongate at the end of the winding walkway, just when Luo Qing Luan reached Graceful Orchids Courtyard, she heard Wang Xue Ru lecturing a servant girl.

It was unknown what she was so angry about, a young servant girl was kneeling on the ground. Apparently, she accidentally broke a teacup, and Wang Xue Ru had her kneel at length in punishment. Not only this, she even had the servant ruthlessly slap her own face while admitting her own mistake as well as swearing that she wouldn’t make the same mistake again in the future.

Wang Xue Ru was in a very bad mood. This servant girl clumsily went so far as to break her favorite set of white china depicting Phnom Penh. If it wasn’t for the fact that a grand happy occasion was coming soon to the General’s Mansion, forbidding any unpleasant matter from being carried out, she really would’ve directly beat this girl to death.

The servant girl kneeled on the girl, face swollen from slapping herself, weeping bitter tears, but she still didn’t dare to stop.

“Why is Father’s Concubine so angry?” Unexpectedly, Luo Qing Luan’s voice sounded. Her indifferent tone of voice seemed to hide a trace of joy. Wang Xue Ru was startled, following which gloominess attacked her.

This loathsome girl. It’s already good for her not to find trouble. Contrary to expectations, she even had the nerve to voluntarily venture into Graceful Orchid Courtyard?

Even though she hated Luo Qing Luan to the extreme, nevertheless, she labored to keep appearances. Wang Xue Ru chuckled, putting on a fake smile as she said, “This little servant isn’t well-behaved and trips all over herself. If she’s not properly taught, others may even think that our General’s Mansion has no discipline.”

Seeing that servant girl waiting anxiously, Luo Qing Luan waved her hand and said smilingly, “It’s alright. Father’s Concubine, for my sake, please forgive her. I actually came to look for Father’s Concubine because of an important matter. Please don’t waste time on these trifling matters.”

“Still not withdrawing?” She seized an opportunity to cast a meaningful glance towards the servant girl with the red and swollen face.

Once she heard there was a reason Luo Qing Luan was looking for her, Wang Xue Ru was deeply disgusted. Finally still remembering each other’s status on the surface, she laughed insincerely. “Qing Luan, how lucky you are. You’re about to become a princess. Your father even especially reminded me to properly teach you about acceptable behaviors for a married woman. It’s good that you’ve come. Father’s Concubine will tell you about them today.”

Without waiting for Wang Xue Ru to finish talking, Luo Qing Luan already sat down, as if she was acting coquettishly, “Father’s Concubine, I’m really not in the mood to learn some customs. There’s something which hasn’t been determined, so my heart is restless. That’s why I wanted to ask Father’s Concubine about it.”

Wang Xue Ru finally suppressed her temper and asked, “What’s bothering you then?”

“I’d like to ask Father’s Concubine. Have you prepared the dowry to be given to me?” Luo Qing Luan beamed.

Dowry? This lass actually had the cheek to come wanting a dowry?

Once Wang Xue Ru heard this question, her complexion immediately darkened. Fortunately, she immediately recalled something and smiled with difficulty, “Don’t worry, Qing Luan, you’re marrying the Prince of Chu. Moreover, His Majesty even granted this marriage. The Master will certainly prepare your dowry properly. There’s no need for you to worry.”

She was about to cut things off, but Luo Qing Luan just wouldn’t give up and insisted on getting to the bottom of things. “Father’s Concubine, tell me, what kind of dowry has Father prepared? If there’s not enough, I won’t comply–”

She truly hated not being able to kick this girl out. Once she thought about how she’d have to take out a large sum of money soon for Luo Qing Luan’s dowry, Wang Xue Ru’s flesh hurt endlessly. This girl wasn’t her own flesh and blood. Not mentioning that she hadn’t killed Luo Qing Luan, this girl even had delusions of having a dowry properly prepared for her?

When Luo Cheng previously mentioned this matter to her, Wang Xue Ru was already unhappy. She didn’t expect that Luo Qing Luan actually even voluntarily came knocking.
