The daughter of a merchant married into the general's mansion, and everyone in the capital envied Ning Yin for transforming from a sparrow into a noble phoenix. In the eyes of the world, Shen Y...
When Shen Jia arrived at the silk shop, the owner had already ironed the wedding dress.
After trying it on, it fits perfectly and looks very elegant.
"Miss, only you can exude such a magnificent aura. On that day, you will surely be the most beautiful woman in the entire capital."
Green Bamboo's eyes lit up as she looked at the pearls and gold thread on Shen Jia's wedding dress. She praised it, but in her heart, she felt a pang of jealousy.
She was no less beautiful than Shen Jia, so why did Shen Jia have such good fortune while she could only be a servant girl at the beck and call of others?
The attempt to harm Ning Yin by releasing snakes failed last time, and when Shen Jia returned, she slapped her several times and punished her by not allowing her to eat.
If she hadn't styled her hair the best, Shen Jia probably would have sold her into Lanquyuan.
Thinking about all this, the hatred in Green Bamboo's eyes became even more obvious.
However, Shen Jia was so immersed in her joy that she didn't notice.
After trying on the clothes for a while, Shen Jia was very satisfied and was just about to ask Lü Zhu to carry the wedding dress onto the carriage.
She glanced up and saw several couples trying on wedding attire nearby. They kept glancing at her with mocking eyes.
Although she is the daughter of a general and the future mistress of a marquis's mansion.
It's quite embarrassing that her future husband isn't even there for such an important event as trying on her wedding dress.
Shen Jia glared angrily at those people, and seeing another set of men's wedding clothes still hanging there, she couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.
"Green Bamboo, hurry up and load the clothes onto the carriage! Are you dead?!"
"Yes, Miss!"
Green Bamboo turned around, curled her lips, and left the silk shop with the clothes in her arms.
In the carriage, Shen Jia was furious. She had been happily trying on clothes, but these poor, down-on-their-luck people made fun of her. How could she possibly accept that?
"Green Bamboo, does that outfit really look good?"
Shen Jia glanced at the green bamboo, and the more she thought about it, the more something seemed off. Why was Yang Shujing always so busy lately?
With the wedding less than two months away, instead of properly preparing for it, what are they busy with?
His elder brother, Shen Yun, was a general of the Great Qi, but even he was never as busy as him.
"Miss, you are so beautiful that any clothes you wear will look jewel-like on you. How could they not look good? If you ask me, no matter how beautiful the clothes are, they can't compare to how beautiful you are."
Green Bamboo's words were as sweet as honey, and upon hearing them, Shen Jia's lips curled into a slight smile, and she felt quite pleased with herself.
She was the most beautiful bride in all of Kyoto; no one could compare.
Thinking it over, she instructed the coachman to turn a corner, as she wanted to go to Lanquyuan to buy some pearl and jade jewelry.
These hairpin makers are extremely skilled, and the jewelry they make is all in the styles popular with the princesses and empresses in the palace.
She couldn't be conventional; she always had to keep up with the trends.
The carriage quickly stopped downstairs at Lanquyuan. Lvzhu deftly set up the carriage benches and helped Chenjia down.
As soon as they got off the carriage, they saw a very familiar figure in the pharmacy next to Lanquyuan.
"Green Bamboo, isn't that Ning Yin, that bitch?"
Shen Jia squinted and asked, her steps already unconsciously drawing closer.
Ningyin carried a lot of traditional Chinese medicine and also bought some New Year's goods.
With Lunar New Year's Eve approaching, she prepared to stock up on New Year's goods in advance.
Then I'll spend a proper New Year with Suxin.
As soon as Ningyin stepped out of the pharmacy, she heard someone sneer.
"Ningyin, it really is you."
Shen Jia laughed freely. Last time, she had Liu frame Ning Yin and make her lose her virginity. Although Liu failed, Liu's mouth was still very intimidating.
She had deceived Shen Jia into believing her without a doubt, and now Shen Jia believed that Ning Yin was no longer a virgin.
The thought of Ning Yin being defiled by a fat, greasy man like Lu Zhuang made her feel extremely satisfied.
How could such an unfaithful and impure woman possibly return to the General's Mansion?
Even if she wanted to come back, she could only be the lowest of servants.
"Shen Jia, you've struck gold, why are you so happy?"
Ning Yin lazily lifted her eyelids and looked at her with disdain.
In fact, she had long suspected that the last time Liu had harmed her, it was Shen Jia who had instigated it.
However, she lacked concrete evidence, and given her low status and limited influence, she was powerless to challenge the General's Mansion.
All she could do was make everyone in the general's mansion regret their actions.
For example, since this brainless woman, Shen Jia, likes Yang Shujing so much, let her marry him and enjoy herself.
If Wang trusts her younger brother so much, then when the General's Mansion is completely swallowed up by Wang Yang one day, perhaps even her life savings will be gone.
As for Yang Shuhuan and Shen Yun, that scumbag and despicable couple, they should be locked up for life.
Ning Yin thought to herself and couldn't help but chuckle, "Chen Jia, I heard you're going to marry Yang Shujing?"
"Yeah, what, are you trying to cause trouble again?"
Shen Jia glared at Ning Yin and said sarcastically, "Just you wait and see. My good days with Brother Shu Jing are far from over. He's working hard to plan for our future."
"Unlike you, a woman who was kicked out by her husband, if you want to find a man in the future, you'll probably only be able to find a widower who has lost his wife!"
Shen Jia got more and more excited as she spoke, her sense of superiority overflowing, and she wanted nothing more than to belittle Ning Yin into the dust.
"Is that so? Miss Shen, you don't need to worry about what kind of man I'm looking for."
After saying that, Ning Yin turned around and got into the carriage. Before leaving, she added one more sentence.
“Shen Jia, although you are stupid and wicked, you are being yourself, and you should be happy.”
Ning Yin left behind a single sentence, and the carriage drove away, leaving Shen Jia standing there, trembling with anger.
Green Bamboo, standing nearby, chuckled secretly. "Miss, don't bother with someone like her. Shall we go look at some jewelry?"
Hearing Green Bamboo speak, Shen Jia remembered the purpose of her visit.
She wants to buy more beautiful jewelry so that she can dazzle everyone.
The two arrived at the jewelry shop in Lanqu Courtyard, and Shen Jia suddenly remembered that she wanted to bring some pineapple cakes back for Yang Shuhuan.
So he sent Green Bamboo to buy some, while he himself picked them out at the shop.
"Miss, you have excellent taste! This is the same style worn by the princess. Our hairpin maker has made a one-to-one replica. If you like it, you can take it back. We guarantee you'll amaze the entire capital."
The shop owner gave a vivid introduction and then let Shen Jia try it on. It was indeed beautiful, and Shen Jia couldn't help but be tempted.
Just as I was about to pay, I seemed to hear the sounds of men and women making merry above my head.
It's not unusual to hear such sounds in Lanqu Garden.
But Chen Jia suddenly felt that the voice sounded like a person.
Who does he look like... like Yang Shujing.
