Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Happiness Belongs to Yourself

Zhu Qianying opened the door, and upon hearing the noise, Chen Jing ca to greet her.

“Ying’er, are you okay?” Chen Jing scrutinised her daughter from head to toe, her concern evident in her words and actions.

“Mom, what could possibly happen to ? I was just discussing wedding preparations!”

Zhu Qianying stepped through the door nonchalantly. In reality, nothing had gone awry! In fact, she had even gained a personal chauffeur-cum-bodyguard from the experience, although she didn’t really want one.

“So, how did the discussion go?”

The wedding was scheduled over a month ago, and Christmas was only a little over ten days away, yet there had been no news from the Yan Family.

To say that Chen Jing wasn’t worried would be untrue.

Of course, her worry wasn’t about her daughter entering a prestigious family, but rather about the statent Yan Family had issued earlier. If they decided to call the wedding off last minute, their daughter would have a hard ti dealing with the aftermath.

“We just had a casual conversation, for the specifics, we’ll talk when his parents return tomorrow.” Zhou Qianying started telling white lies again.

But she had no choice but to tell white lies. After all, the excuse was initially fabricated by Yan’s Eldest Young Master. She had to follow up, or else her mother, being the worrier she is, would start imagining things.

“Hmm, once everything is decided, Xiao Yu and I can start preparing.”

During the conversation, Zhu Qianying went into her room and ca out with a small backpack.

“Mom, what do you and Xiao Yu have to prepare?” Zhu Qianying asked curiously.

“Of course, we have to prepare! Like your wedding gift, and the decoration for the house, right? When Yan’s Young Master cos to pick up the bride…”

Zhu Qianying interrupted her impatiently, “Mom, what bride pick-up? We’re not doing any of that, we’ll get straight to the ceremony at the venue!”

Chen Jing’s suggestions were things Zhu Qianying had never even considered.

Picking up the bride? Not to ntion how botherso Yan’s Young Master would find it, Zhu Qianying herself thought it would be a hassle.

Firstly, she and he barely share any common ground in life. Excluding his parents, she only knew Qin Xiu and Uncle Hai among his acquaintances. She didn’t know a third person.

As for her own social circle, Yan’s Young Master only recognized Xing Bailun and a few others. He hadn’t even t her sister, Xiao Yu.

In their relationship, the scenario of the bridegroom and a group of wealthy suitors coming to pick up the bride and eting a bunch of penniless bridesmaids would be incredibly awkward.

Besides, Yan’s Young Master hadn’t ntioned anything about coming to pick up the bride. Why should she, the bride, worry about it?

“Wouldn’t it be…not so good like this? A wedding is a once in a lifeti event, it should be lively and joyous…”

Chen Jing never had a wedding herself due to her ill-fated relationship with Zhu Zhizhou. Moreover, her family had ostracized her when she chose to be a concubine.

Therefore, she genuinely hoped her daughter could have a glorious wedding.

However, due to her own foolishness, her daughter lacked a decent background. Now, she even had to hold the wedding in a rented ho. Presumably, her daughter’s reluctance to make a big deal was related to this.

“Mom, as long as we’re happy, it doesn’t matter if it’s lively.” Zhu Qianying had to pacify her mother with these reasons.

As to whether she would be happy after marrying Yan’s Young Master, she hadn’t considered that yet.

She only thought that with the current relationship she had with Yan’s Young Master, they might manage to maintain respectful, non-interfering lives after marrying.

Uncertain of this, she didn’t want to think about it too much.

After all, she had no control over her future once she beca the wife of Yan family’s Young Master.

She could only strive for so freedom for herself as far as she could.

After thoughtful contemplation, Chen Jing nodded and said, “That’s true, being lively is for others to see, happiness is for ourselves.”

Zhu Qianying hugged her mother and kissed her, “Mom, I think you’ve beco wiser since we moved out!”

Chen Jing gave an embarrassed chuckle, “Ying’er, if I’m still as foolish as I was after what he did to , then I’ve learned nothing from that lesson!”

The mother-daughter duo left the house, laughing and joking. It was only upon seeing the car parked in front of their house did Zhu Qianying rember to explain to her mother.

“Mom, Uncle Hai, the butler of Yan’s Young Master’s house, arranged for a chauffeur-cum-bodyguard to stay with us. From now on, you can just let him drive you whenever you go to the markets.”

Chen Jing, who had been living in Zhu family for many years, had never enjoyed the luxury of a personal chauffeur before. However, now that they’d moved out, they unexpectedly had one.

“Ying’er, is this appropriate?”

However, she wasn’t one to desire luxuries, especially when they were at her daughter’s expense.

“Mom, it’s OK. Uncle Hai worries that Zhu Junzhao might cause trouble, so he arranged for a chauffeur to be with us for a few days.”

In truth, it was only for half a month more.

Once she got married, she could arrange to relocate her mother to W Province.

However, she hadn’t told her mother nor Xiao Yu about this yet.

For one thing, if Yan’s Young Master’s influence could absolutely ensure the safety of her and her mother, there wouldn’t be a need to send her mother so far away.

For another, the more people who knew, the more unexpected events there could be.

Chen Jing was uneasy, but seeing her daughter casually greeting the driver, and the driver treating her with utmost respect, without a hint of disdain or scorn, she began to believe her daughter’s words.

The people of Yan family were indeed quite good to her daughter.

The mother and daughter duo wandered around the furniture center for a bit, buying so minor accessories. As for major furniture, they didn’t even consider purchasing any.

For one, they wanted to save money. Second, they weren’t sure how long they would live in this rented house, so there was no point in buying big pieces of furniture.

anwhile, Wang was following them around diligently, helping them carry things and attempting to pay for everything.

“Miss Zhu, feel free to buy whatever you want, I will handle the paynt,” Wang said.

Of course, Zhu Qianying wasn’t going to let him pay. “Brother Wang, did Uncle Hai tell you to do this?”

This ti, Wang shook his head. “No, it was Young Master’s order!”

Zhu Qianying was only half-convinced, but she didn’t bother to press for the truth. After all, she would never let Wang pay. As for who gave him the order, she didn’t care.

Wang, of course, couldn’t argue with Zhu Qianying, so he ended up serving as a porter, carrying all the items the mother and daughter had purchased.

Zhu Qianying and Chen Jing were both very frugal, having only bought so pillowcases and the like at the furniture centre. They then went to the supermarket and bought so everyday items, with no luxury items in sight.

Wang followed them around throughout their shopping, and his impressions of the future Young Mistress transford from scepticism to admiration.

Initially, everyone in the Yan Family assud that Zhu Qianying, just like other pampered young ladies, would be full of nasty temperant. However, Zhu Qianying proved to be nothing like what they had imagined!
