Ch 531 - 535

Chapter 531 - Making A Scene　　 

"Not everyone will care for their daughter after she had been married away to someone else."

Nan Xin was stunned then stayed silent. This was not the first time her mother said those words to her.

In fact, even her friends had often said the same things to her. Now that they were already 13 years old, their discussion had started to expand to the matter regarding their marriage and future. Of course, no one dared to say for sure how their future would be, but they could gossip with each other about it.

Nan Xin lowered her head. "Yes, Mother."

"Go to have some rest."

"Yes, Mother."

Concubine Mei looked at her daughter and sighed. Being a concubine daughter herself, she knew how hard it would be for Nan Xin to be able to marry someone decent. Most of the time, children of concubine born would be married to someone who was also of concubine born.

There was simply no other way.

Shaking her head lightly, Concubine Mei turned her attention to the dress. Hopefully, it was not too late to fix this dress.

Madam Qu's Quarter

A servant walked in and bowed towards Madam Qu. "Madam, it's successful."

"Good."

A pouch was delivered by the maidservant and that servant quickly walked away. She didn't even turn to look at Madam Qu anymore as she rushed to the side door in order to leave Nan Family Residence as fast as possible.

Leaning on the chair, Madam Qu was feeling relieved that her small trick went undetected. This also meant that she would be able to watch a good show tomorrow.

"Madam, Second Young Master is here."

"Ah Xiang, you're here." Madam Qu's eyes lit up.

Nan Hou Xiang walked into the courtyard and looked in his mother's direction. His eyebrows arched when he noticed the extremely obvious gloating expression on his mother's face.

He understood that whatever his mother did, it was successful.

"Congratulations, Mother."

"It's all thanks to your idea, Ah Xiang." Madam Qu smiled brightly and beckoned for him to get closer. "Did anything happen today?"

"I just got a message from my cousin. He's going to come here tomorrow." Nan Hou Xiang looked at his mother.

"Good." Madam Qu smirked. With this, the cast was set.

The next day, Nan Hua had to prepare herself for the banquet. Looking at the list of things that Xiao Yun had prepared, she was a bit speechless. It was just a banquet, was there any need for her to go through the preparation six hours beforehand?

It was really hard to be a woman.

Nan Hua sat down patiently and let Xiao Yun, Mu Yan, Chu Yue, and Ran did their magic. It didn't take long for them to transform her appearance to even more exquisite than before. Looking at the image in the bronze mirror, it looked like a fairy coming out from the painting, so beautiful and enchanting.

"Miss, you're undoubted the most beautiful." Xiao Yun smiled.

"That's a bit exaggerated." Nan Hua glanced at the dress she wore. It was a beautiful pink colored dress that had intricate design and some beautiful decoration. One wouldn't be able to look away when their eyes caught onto the dress. It was a modest design, one that would enhance Nan Hua's cuteness as a young girl and allowed people to look more of her youthfulness.
