Chapter 203

Yunxi standing there made her seem rather unruly.

"Although it is a family banquet, it is still a formal occasion. As a concubine, it is already an honor to be able to come. Naturally, I must abide by the rules and not be impolite."

Yunxi's voice was gentle and soft, yet it made Aunt Chen feel awkward.

Suddenly, Madam Zheng, who hadn't spoken until now, said, "You're quite sensible."

Yunxi curtsied: "Thanks to the young master for hiring a teacher to instruct me in etiquette, I have benefited greatly. If Consort Chen does not know the rules, why don't you ask the Marquis to hire a teacher for her as well? After all, isn't the Marquis always obedient to Consort Chen?"

Her words were quite eloquent, and a smile flashed in Zheng's eyes as she listened.

Aunt Chen's face paled slightly: "What do you mean by saying that the Marquis listens to my every word? The Marquis is only being lenient with me because he cares about me!"

The way she's talking makes it sound like she's the one in charge of this household!

Even though she was standing behind Shen Jun and couldn't see his expression, she knew it wouldn't be good.

Yunxi exclaimed "Ah!" and quickly explained, "My lord, please forgive me. I just heard from Consort Chen that it was Consort Chen's idea for me to come here, so I misunderstood."

Shen Jun's expression was not good at the moment, but he couldn't lash out at Yun Xi. He just snorted and brushed away Aunt Chen's hand from his shoulder.

Seeing this, Madam Zheng was even happier: "Aunt Chen is getting old, I'm afraid she won't be able to learn these things well."

Aunt Chen gritted her teeth.

They actually said she was old!

As she spoke, Zheng looked at Yunxi with a hint of approval in her eyes.

Although she has the status of a Marquis's wife, she has been suppressed by Aunt Chen all these years. Although she wanted to fight back, Aunt Chen had a firm grip on Shen Jun's heart. Whenever she made a move, Aunt Chen would go to Shen Jun and cry, leaving her unable to take action. Unexpectedly, Aunt Chen was defeated by Yun Xi today.

That felt so good!

The atmosphere at the table subtly became somewhat delicate.

Shen Rang put down his chopsticks and said, "Father and Mother, please enjoy your meal. I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he got up and left with Yunxi.

As Yun Wan watched the two figures leave together, she couldn't help but grind her back teeth.

Shen Rang only thinks about that bitch, does he even remember that she is his rightful wife?!

After leaving the banquet, Yunxi said, "Zirong, you barely ate anything."

Shen Rang curled his lips: "You haven't eaten a single bite, have you? I've already asked Jing Yuan to go out and buy some food. Let's go back and eat."

He was somewhat looking forward to what gift Yunxi would give him.

Yunxi didn't understand his thoughts, but her eyes lit up when she heard that there would be delicious food when they got back.

So the two of them returned to Jibai Residence together, and sure enough, the dining room had already been set up, and the food was so plentiful that it was no less delicious than what they had over there.

Moreover, without the rules of family banquets, Yunxi could eat as much as she wanted.

Shen Rang still didn't eat much, his mind wasn't on the food. He wanted to say something several times, but seeing Yun Xi eating so heartily, he had to stop himself from speaking each time.

After finally waiting for Yunxi to finish eating, Shen Rang began to feel a sense of anticipation again.

Shen Rang's gaze fell on Yun Xi's slowly parted red lips, and his Adam's apple bobbed slightly.

Shouldn't we talk about the gift now?

"Zi Rong".

Shen's eyes lit up slightly.

"Today is the Winter Solstice, we..."

Shen Rang's eyes brightened even more.

"Shall we write Spring Festival couplets together?"

In an instant, all the light in Shen Rang's eyes went out.
