Cousin, Your Mother Has Already Agreed to Our Marriage

"Miss, won't Madam really make a move on Second Young Master? If that happens, we…" A Bi, being young, was frightened by Wang Yuyan's words and almost burst into tears, pouting.

"A Bi, don't cry yet. Let's go find Madam first. If Second Young Master really met with foul play, our Murong Family isn't to be trifled with," A Zhu said, her killing intent brimming.

In the region of Gusu, Canhe Manor's strength was arguably number one. Mantuo Mountain Villa, apart from its strategic terrain, couldn't compare to Canhe Manor in any other aspect.

If the Murong Family truly wanted to destroy Mantuo Mountain Villa, it would be as easy as flipping their hand, as they were built for war, after all.

"Miss, the two young ladies, you're awake." Outside the door, several female warriors stood guard at their boudoir.

"Move aside, I'm going to find my mother." Wang Yuyan pushed at the warrior blocking the door, but her body, thinner than a wilting flower, couldn't budge them at all.

"Miss, Madam has ordered that due to the disturbance by the intruder, for safety reasons, you and the two young ladies are not allowed to leave the small building without her command," the female warrior said loudly.

"Move aside, or don't blame me for not playing by the rules." A Bi, worried about Li Hao's safety, was ready to take action.

"How dare you block the path of Miss and the two young ladies! Guards, drag her away and chop her up for fertilizer!" A cold voice rang out, and a group of white-clad female warriors rushed over, dragging away the female warrior who had been blocking the door.

The female warrior blocking the door begged for mercy all the way, but her companions remained expressionless. It was likely that next year's date would be her memorial day.

"Granny Bai, where is our Second Young Master?" Before Li Qingluo, A Bi and the others feared Granny Bai the most in Mantuo Mountain Villa.

However, for Li Hao's sake, they had decided to go all out. If Second Young Master died, they would likely die of guilt along with him.

"The two young ladies need not worry. Second Young Master is having breakfast. This old woman is here to fetch you," Granny Bai said, lowering her head.

From the moment the secret chamber's stone door opened that morning, Granny Bai had not yet recovered from her shock.

What in the world was going on? Li Hao, who they thought was dead for sure, had actually walked out of the secret chamber alive.

Other than dark circles under his eyes, a sallow complexion, and a slightly unsteady gait, needing support from Madam to walk, he was otherwise fine.

In contrast, Madam, who was usually so assertive, was like a young wife, holding Li Hao's arm close and even meticulously adjusting his clothes from time to time.

Moreover, Granny Bai noticed that Li Qingluo was very different from her usual self today. Her skin had become supple, her pretty face smooth, her eyes more spirited, and she seemed to exude an ethereal aura.

Before Granny Bai could even ponder what had happened in the secret chamber, Madam had already instructed her to prepare breakfast and to fetch A Zhu and the others.

"Li Qingluo, can you stop supporting me?" Li Hao said with a wry smile, looking at Li Qingluo, who was half-supporting and half-carrying him.

This cold woman used to be so icy, so ruthless, and now she had turned into a doting wife. But how could he handle this submissiveness? Didn't he see the burning gossip in the eyes of the women around them?

"Can you still walk?" Li Qingluo's reply was concise. Although her tone was still a bit cold, it was pleasant to hear.

"This… I should be able to… but you'd better keep supporting me!" Alas, the consequences of excessive indulgence!

Li Qingluo's physique was extraordinary. With each passing time, she became younger and more beautiful. If she were to stand next to Wang Yuyan now and have people vote on who was more charming, most perverts would probably vote for her.

Li Qingluo was the type of woman who admired strength. Back then, Duan Zhengchun was young, handsome, skilled in martial arts, and from a prominent family, which was why she had been devoted to him.

Now, Li Hao had conquered her directly in both soul and body, making her admire him immensely, and naturally, she was completely submissive to him.

"Mother…"

"Aunt…"

Wang Yuyan, A Zhu, and A Bi stood at the doorway, staring at Li Hao and Li Qingluo in the hall, completely petrified.

Damn it, did we sleep in a bad position last night, pressing the nerves in our brains and causing visual hallucinations?

In the hall, Li Hao was sitting at the table eating noodles, while Madam Wang was gently wiping his mouth beside him.

"Second Young Master, are you alright?" A Bi rushed to Li Hao's side, patting him all over to check if he was injured or missing any limbs.

"What are you doing? I'm fine." Li Hao stopped A Bi's next move with a dark expression. This little girl, in front of so many people, wanted to check if Little Li was still intact.

"Phew, it's good you're alright. What would we do if something happened to you!" A Bi pouted, almost crying.

"How dare you speak! None of you have any tolerance for alcohol, yet you all drank until you were drunk," Li Hao said sternly.

"Then how did you spend last night? Where did you sleep?" According to the madams, the young master had a peculiar sleeping habit; he couldn't sleep without hugging or squeezing something at night, and even when he slept, his sleep quality wasn't good.

"You were all fast asleep. How could I possibly sleep? Fortunately, my aunt was hospitable and made me feel right at home."

"We drank and chatted last night, watching the stars. Then we talked about our life ideals. We got to know each other's interests and hobbies in depth."

"Through our superficial understanding, I discovered that my aunt is actually a woman of great substance."

"Moreover, my aunt has agreed to let cousin Wang Yuyan marry me as a co-wife. All the properties of Mantuo Mountain Villa will be given as Wang Yuyan's dowry to me."

"My aunt values me so highly that I feel overwhelmed with gratitude. I also promised in front of everyone that I will take care of my aunt's food, clothing, housing, transportation, marriage, and childbirth in the future," Li Hao declared grandly, saying a bunch of terrifying things.

"Mother, is Second Cousin telling the truth? I…" Wang Yuyan was on the verge of tears. I really don't want to marry this scoundrel; I like Eldest Cousin Murong Fu.

However, the latter part was Wang Yuyan's inner monologue. She was timid and indecisive; she would never say such shy words, nor would she defy her mother's wishes.

"Yuyan, your cousin and I have already discussed it. I have agreed to your marriage. Your cousin has already given several hundred million taels of gold as a betrothal gift. You are now considered engaged. We will pick an auspicious date later for you to get married!" Li Qingluo said, her face ashen.

What did this scoundrel Li Hao mean by saying he would take care of her food, clothing, housing, transportation, marriage, and childbirth?

Even if I remarried, childbirth is my husband's business. What does it have to do with you?
