Chapter 624: That’s Aunt’s Fortune, Don’t Even Think About It
Faced with Zhuang Shihan's question, Song Yanxi was speechless for a moment.
How should I put it...
Zhuzhi, who was standing by, covered her mouth and chuckled softly, saying with a sincere smile on her face, "Whether there are many rules or not, you'll know when Princess Shihan gets married herself.
It's been more than a month, so why are you so anxious?"
Zhuang Shihan: “…”
This damn girl, it would be better if she didn’t say anything.
Seeing her expression of having eaten a fly, Song Yanxi couldn't help but comfort her: "My princess is different from me. You have already won the favor of Mrs. Lin before you even entered the house. She can't wait to talk about marrying a good daughter-in-law all day long.
She already likes you so much now, and when you get married, I'm sure she'll want to hold you in her arms. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will definitely get along well."
Although the words were spoken sincerely, Zhuang Shihan was furious.
She said with a mocking look in her eyes: "Why are you pretending? What kind of character is Old Lady Lin? Don't you, the former daughter-in-law, know it?"
Song Yanxi didn't answer but asked, "Since the princess already knows, why do you still ask?"
"You!" Zhuang Shihan was choked and unable to answer. She became even more annoyed and gritted her teeth and said, "I'm not familiar with that old woman, so how can I know her personality?"
Song Yanxi smiled and said, "Don't worry, we will become a family in the future. There is plenty of time to get to know each other."
Zhuang Shihan frowned, "Could you please stop being so sarcastic?"
Perhaps realizing that she was in the wrong, she coughed lightly and said, "I was inconsiderate about what happened before. I'm sorry.
But you can't blame me entirely for this. I didn't know that Lin Tingfeng had married you before he went to war.
If he had told me that he was married, I wouldn't have been able to get close to him no matter how thick-skinned I was."
The implication is that she was actually deceived by Lin Tingfeng and was a victim.
Facing her eyes full of sincerity, Song Yanxi didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.
She said helplessly: "The princess is talented and intelligent, but she shouldn't treat others as fools."
Zhuang Shihan flatly denied it, "I didn't, you misunderstood me."
"Misunderstanding?" Song Yanxi chuckled, "Even though the princess didn't know he was married when she first met Lin Tingfeng, she wouldn't have asked about him without a word since she fell in love with him.
With a personality as independent as yours, I'm sure she wouldn't rush into a lifelong relationship with someone without thinking clearly about the important matters in her life."
Although it was clearly a compliment, Zhuang Shihan's cheeks flushed and she was unable to respond for a moment.
Others didn't know what she was thinking at that time, but she herself knew it very well.
She did know early on that Lin Tingfeng had married a wife.
But so what?
While they were worshiping heaven and earth, Lin Tingfeng was ordered to go to the border town to quell the rebellion.
Not to mention the bridal chamber, it is even unclear whether the worship of heaven and earth has been completed.
Apart from the marriage certificate, the so-called couple of them is just in name only. How can they not be considered another kind of singleness?
Besides, when Lin Tingfeng expressed his feelings to her, he had already said that he had never even held Song Yanxi's hand, and he married her only because he cared about her reputation.
She thought at the time that this person was not only just, but also very responsible.
Not only did he save the beauty and preserve Song Yanxi's innocence, but in order to prevent gossip from spreading outside, he resolutely stepped forward and went to the Yongchuan Marquis Mansion to propose marriage.
Naturally, she couldn't help but take action against such a kind and responsible man.
Who would have thought that it was all fake!
Seeing Zhuang Shihan was speechless, Song Yanxi knew that she was right, and said coldly: "I don't care about what has passed, and Princess Shihan doesn't need to take it to heart.
There is no need to determine who is right and who is wrong."
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Shihan's face became even uglier.
Why does it sound like she is dwelling on the past?
But Song Yanxi is different. She is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she is generous enough not to care that she stole her man.
Shouldn't she just be the one to say all the good and bad things about the relationship?
Zhuang Shihan became angrier the more she thought about it, and couldn't help but sneer, "You're quite generous, but I'm not like you. I'm very petty."
"Generous?" Song Yanxi couldn't help but curl her lips, "My princess, you misunderstood me. I have always been very fussy.
There are just some things that you don’t need to take to heart.”
What she meant was that she was not worthy?
Zhuang Shihan forced a smile and said dryly, "You're quite generous then."
After she finished speaking, she directed towards the door, "Bai Qing, ask the kitchen to send a few more bowls of sweet soup, one for each flavor."
Bai Qing said respectfully, "Yes, Princess."
Listening to the sound of footsteps going away, Song Yanxi frowned and said, "This person's accent doesn't sound like someone from Beijing."
"You mean Bai Qing?" Zhuang Shihan chuckled, proudly saying, "He's the manager I recently promoted. His ancestors were from Hongsha City. They fled to Beijing after a disaster in their hometown more than ten years ago."
Thinking of something, her smile inevitably became more ambiguous. "Bai Qing is not only good at calculating, but also has an amazing figure. The guys down there say he gets up before dawn to practice boxing."
Understanding her hidden meaning, Song Yanxi's eyes were filled with disgust. "The princess is already engaged, so it's better for her to be more reserved."
Zhuang Shihan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, "It's just a joke. Look at you being so hypocritical, it's really boring.
No wonder Lin Tingfeng always said you were dull and boring, it turns out..."
Mo Jinchuan pushed the door open and entered, interrupting her and saying, "I'm sorry, I'm late."
The little girl in his arms saw Song Yanxi, her eyes lit up immediately, and she said sweetly, "Auntie!"
As she spoke, she quickly stretched out her hand and said, "Auntie, hug me."
Zhuang Shihan had never seen Jiaojiao before, so she was inevitably attracted by this delicate little girl and exclaimed, "This little girl is really pretty."
Hearing the compliments, the little girl raised her chin proudly, and looked even more adorable.
It just makes people's hearts melt.
Although Zhuang Shihan didn't like children, she had a good impression of this little girl. She waved at her and said, "Come, come and sit here with your aunt."
The next moment, Jiaojiao's smiling face fell, and she said mercilessly: "Jiaojiao wants to sit with auntie."
Zhuang Shihan's smile froze slightly, and she said in a sour tone, "His Royal Highness Prince Jin has raised a good daughter for you."
Jiaojiao snorted softly and muttered in a voice that was neither too loud nor too soft: "That's just because my aunt is lucky. Don't even think about it."
Zhuang Shihan: “…”
How can this dead kid talk like that?
Is this the upbringing of a young lady from the Jin Palace?
Meeting her somewhat angry eyes, Jiaojiao frowned and asked, "Are you Aunt Shihan?"
Hearing the word "Auntie", Zhuang Shihan's expression softened slightly and she nodded, saying, "I am. This farm is under my name."
She originally thought that when the little girl heard her say this, even if she couldn't think of any words of praise, she would definitely be shocked.
It is no exaggeration to say that her Shu Manor is not only the best manor in Beijing, but also the best manor in the world.
This point is clearly demonstrated by the packed house today.
Even those who were fence-sitters before and said that coming to Shuzhuang would lower their status, now can't even get a seat in the lobby downstairs.
And that damn Juweizhai, how can the stuff made by a bunch of stubborn feudal remnants compare with her product that incorporates modern wisdom?
Once they come to Shuzhuang and have a taste, they will feel that the food at other places is like pig food and is simply difficult to swallow.
Zhuang Shihan was just thinking about it when she heard Jiaojiao snort coldly, "What kind of manor is this? Our manor is much bigger than this."
