To protect her billion-dollar fortune, the newly widowed Su Jin is forced to get married again.
After the wedding, the two agreed not to interfere with each other and not to affect each other...
Throughout the journey, the maids were very respectful to Su Jin and Madam Su, but slightly colder to He Ru, who was walking behind. He Ru also sensed the difference in treatment and felt even more upset.
Su Jin had informed the housekeeper beforehand, and the housekeeper arrived to pick them up in a pumpkin carriage.
The butler drove the pumpkin carriage to Su Jin and stopped in front of her. He got out and very gentlemanly invited Su Jin and Madam Su to get in the carriage, saying, "Please."
After saying that, he saw He Ru behind him, glanced left and right, and decided to greet her as well. “Miss He Ru, you’re here again. You can wander around by yourself. I’ll take the second young mistress and her mother home first. Oh, by the way, there are many new varieties of flowers in the garden on the west side of the manor. You can go and take a look if you’re bored.”
Goodbye, Miss He Ru.
This statement is clearly an assertion of sovereignty on behalf of Su Jin.
From the title of "Second Young Mistress" to the territorial term "coming home," everything is telling He Ru who the woman the Second Young Master married into the family is.
How about: "......"
His tone was so polite that she had nowhere to vent her anger.
At the same time, Su Jin and Madam Su also got into the pumpkin carriage. Hearing the butler's words, Madam Su couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, while Su Jin's face remained expressionless.
Su Jin was still uncertain. Even if the entire Zheng family acknowledged that she was the second young mistress, what if Zheng Lin's heart was biased towards her?
This possibility seems unlikely, but given all the hurtful things she did to him before, the probability of her changing her mind is extremely high.
The housekeeper was riding his bicycle when he heard Su Jin's voice.
Why this kind of car?
Butler: "It has a fairytale feel. It was ordered by the master to distinguish between his own people and outsiders, so he got this pumpkin carriage."
Looking into the car, Madam Su praised, "My dear in-law, you have such a girlish heart."
"However, the pumpkin carriage was designed by the second young master. The master said he wanted a different kind of carriage, so the second young master drew several pictures overnight, and the final product looks like this." The butler was extremely proud: "Perhaps in the second young master's mind, everyone who rides in this carriage is a princess."
Su Jin: "......"
Su Jin wasn't buying it; in fact, she found it rather ridiculous.
But Mrs. Su really liked the style of the car, and she touched the armrest inside the car with great affection. "I'll have Zheng Lin give me a copy of the design drawings later, and I'll have your dad make one too."
Madam Su has always had a girlish heart, and the car's aesthetic appealed to her. However, Su Jin couldn't understand this aesthetic and felt that sitting in such a car was childish and even a little embarrassing.
Su Jin remembered the Zheng family's purpose, one of which had just been achieved; He Ru's face must be a liver color now.
Looking out the car window at the blue sky, white clouds, and green grass, she wanted to turn back and go home, but there were some things she still needed to figure out.
"Uncle Wu, what have He Ru and Zheng Lin been doing together lately?"
"I don't know."
......
Upon arriving at the villa area, the pumpkin carriage stopped, followed by a BMW. Su Jin and He Ru got out of the car one after the other.
He Ru looked on with insane envy as she passed by the pumpkin carriage.
Zheng Lingge's pumpkin carriage was actually designed for Su Jin.
He Ru's face turned red with anger, and she stomped her foot forcefully, expressing her dissatisfaction in a subtle way.
In the reception room.
Zheng Youguo and He Rong are drinking tea.
The maid was massaging He Rong, who had her eyes closed and her head resting on Zheng Youguo's thigh.
Since they talked everything out, their relationship has improved a lot, and He Rong's temper has become milder.
"Godmother!"
Upon hearing her goddaughter's voice, He Rong slowly opened her eyes, a smile playing on her lips as she glanced at her sideways and said, "Why are you here again? Did you choose the person I told you about last time? I wanted to arrange a meeting for you."
He Ru: "I will only marry Zheng Lin. Zheng Lin didn't say he wouldn't marry me, so you have to have faith in me."
She began to persuade He Rong.
Her main purpose in visiting the Zheng family during this period was to change He Rong's mind. She hoped that He Rong would still support her marriage to Zheng Lin, just like before.
He Rong has recently grown a little annoyed with her goddaughter, who keeps repeating the same things and never comes up with anything new.
He Rong closed her eyes again. "Go shopping more often, buy things, and dress yourself up. Focus more on yourself."
At this moment, Su Jin also walked in.
He Ru walked quickly just now, so Su Jin and Madam Su walked slowly behind her.
Hearing footsteps, He Ru didn't continue speaking. She didn't want Su Jin to hear these things, which is why she came in so quickly.
Zheng Youguo was overjoyed to see Su Jin, as if she were his own daughter. "Come, come, little Jin, sit here."
He glanced at Madam Su and said, “Oh, you’ve brought gifts again. Mother-in-law, there’s no need to be so polite. We’re all family. It’s enough that you’ve come.”
Mrs. Su handed the gift to the maid and sat down next to Su Jin. "I didn't bring much. I mainly brought Xiao Jin along. She doesn't have to work lately, and I thought it must be tough for her to live alone, so I brought her some things to make things easier for her."
Mrs. Su looked to the side and saw people carrying large and small things through the living room and heading towards the bedroom.
At first, Su Jin couldn't see clearly what was being moved in. Later, she saw her piano, which she had just bought a month ago, being carried in as well, and she realized something was wrong.
These things all belong to her family. Judging by the quantity, it's as if she emptied her entire house beforehand.
Su Jin looked at Madam Su with a puzzled expression.
Mrs. Su took her hand, patted the back of her hand, and smiled at her.
Su Jin: "??" So she guessed right, they really did empty her house.
He claimed he brought her here to demonstrate his power to He Ru and assert his dominance, but secretly he had already planned a deeper trap.
My real mother, she truly is my real mother.
If you want her to move back to the Zheng family home, you can just say so directly. Why beat around the bush like that?
It's not that she didn't want to come back and live here. If she had known about this plan beforehand, she would have been willing to cooperate.
Zheng Youguo pointed to the people going in and out carrying things and asked, "What are these...?"
Mrs. Su: "Xiao Jin usually focuses too much on herself and has bought too many things, so I brought them all over for her to use whenever she wants."
He Rong waved her hand, and the maid stopped massaging her.
He Rong sat up and twisted her shoulders. "Xiao Jin, do you have time this afternoon? Come with me to go shopping and sing some songs. I'm so tired of being stuck in this manor all day."
This was a gesture of goodwill, and everyone understood it.
Zheng Youguo was pleased that He Rong had changed a little, becoming more objective in her interactions with others and no longer harboring the same strong prejudice against Su Jin as before.
He Ru clenched her small fists and walked closer to He Rong. "Godmother, why are you calling her? I'm here with you."
He Rong: "I don't need you to accompany me. I'll be content when you find a good man to marry. Xiao Jin is my daughter-in-law, so naturally she should spend more time with me."
She then looked at Su Jin and called out, "Xiao Jin, what do you think? Are you going?"
Su Jin smiled and said firmly, "Go."
He Rong smiled gently at Madam Su, both of them displaying the poise of middle-aged women. All their previous unpleasantness dissipated in that smile.
