四十六 Meng Jia Yi marries off

The marriage between the third prince and the third Miss of the Meng clan would still proceed and on the day before their wedding, Meng Jia Yi was taken to her mother's yard.

Meng Jia Yi looked at the troubled Ban Rushi, her eyes were red signifying the tears she had shed the nights before; those hands that has never touched hard work was now cocooned in distress as her hand was clenched tightly to hers; there was not much of a noise and the servants have already departed to their dwellings.

"You're gonna be married... tomorrow" Ban Rushi choked, the tears she thought that has dried up fell on her cheeks.

"Mother, do not be sad" Meng Jia Yi swiped away the tears that land on her mother's cheeks, those cheeks that have felt the scalding grief that her mother felt for the past months.

Mother.

Never would have thought that she would be this concern to a person, a character at most.

"I will live well" she promised out loud, intending for her mother to hear the conviction in her tone.

She will live, she was sure of it but not the latter part of her sentence. It doesn't matter, it was still living, just like her modern life.

"Will you? My daughter... please live well. I do not want to send you to the afterlife this early" Ban Rushi caressed the black, rich hair. The future is infinite, there are so many possibilities but only two paths; that is death and living.

No matter what, she does not want the former and does not want to send a black-haired person as a white-headed one herself.

"I will, I promise you" Meng Jia Yi naturally leans into her embrace, trying to hope that this moment would last forever.

You only cherish little moments like this when you're about to leave your comfort zone.

"Take care of yourself and A'Rui for me" she reminded her mother, seeing her reach her lips to prevent herself from sobbing. "Mother"

"Alright, alright, I won't cry anymore" presenting a smile that's much more like a cry hit her in the heart.

Meng Jia Yi stayed with her mother for an hour, it felt like seconds as she blinked the drowsiness that tries to get a hold on her.

Soon after, she was put into her room, the first place that she sees after transmigrating into this book. Funnily enough, this is also the place that would be the last thing that she would see after entering the wolf's den.

As the night progresses several servants was awoken by the first sight of dawn, the sun hasn't broken yet to the sky and so the servants collected their selves for the upcoming marriage.

XiXi, the personal maid of the third miss began preparing the food that her miss would eat for her early breakfast. It wasn't long when she arrived and was called to her miss' room, presented the food and waited till her miss finishes to collect it and send it to the other servants.

The dowry maids that were given to the miss are from Concubine Ban; Madam Sima was not the one that rules the marriage of the third miss according to the Prime Minister.

"Miss, it's time for you to freshen up" XiXi says, tone low as she knew this would be the last time she would call her to miss in her title.

"Alright"
