Chapter 283 - Even a marriage predestined by fate can't survive without love (2)
Knowing that the princess would be staying over as a guest, Nie household had already fully prepared in advance. When Errong led Nie Sangyu and the princess into the estate, Ning Mingjie bid his farewell first.
As they were pa.s.sing through the scenic covered corridors, Pengyue looked amazed the entire time. ”Isn't your home too exquisite?”
This estate naturally had a different type of splendor than the palace, but it had a charm that was superior to the palace.
Smiling, Errong pointed at a pond and said, ”In the summer, lotus flowers will bloom here. Qingyun had those flowers planted here for me.”
Pengyue somewhat admiringly asked, ”Is Qingyun your husband?”
At the mention of Qingyun, Errong gave a tiny smile. ”Yeah. He treats me very well. The flowers in this pond are from him, and embroidery building over there was built for me too.”
”This is how men should behave, ah.” Having gotten rid of the group of trailing servants, Pengyue was slightly skipping. Full of energy, she said, ”My imperial father has told me a thousand times that I should choose a man that has power and influence, but I don't want to. I just want to marry a man that will treat me well.”
”That's a pretty good way of thinking.” Ji Man nodded and said, ”As long as a man isn't poor to the point of only having fabricated dreams and can't even financially support himself, it's not necessary for him to be super rich. As long as he treats you well, it'll be fine to marry him.”
Looking at her, Pengyue smiled. ”It's rare to see someone that thinks the same way as me. Does your husband treat you really well too?”
Ji Man paused before shaking her head.
Pengyue showed her a pitying expression before looking at Errong and saying, ”It seems that it isn't easy to find a good husband. You have to treasure yours.”
Errong nodded and slightly lowered her eyes.
Right after they entered a room, a servant girl came over and saluted.” Young Madam.”
Errong nodded and quietly asked, ”Where's Young Master?”
The servant girl glanced at Nie Sangyu and Pengyue before saying in a low voice, ”He hasn't returned yet.”
Ji Man looked at the sky outside. Should he have already quickly finished his work and come home to eat dinner? Why was Nie Qingyun not home yet?
Errong wasn't showing a surprised expression. She turned around and said with a smile, ”That's good too. All three of us can share a room together then.”
Ji Man slightly frowned. ”Is my older brother not coming back tonight?”
Without turning her head back, Errong continued walking up the stairs as she answered, ”En, he's been busy lately.”
