Chapter 259 Live for Yourself Without Hesitation
Shen Huazheng and Zhou Ying were both stunned for a moment. This was a lot of information.
Now everyone sympathizes with Chen Lin and thinks that he is the victim in this incident.
But according to what Fang Qingyu said, Chen Lin is not completely innocent.
This matter is really twisted and turned again.
Princess Lejia swallowed the pine nuts in her mouth and asked, "Are Chen Lin and Jiang Yirou very familiar with each other? Is it because of Jiang Can?"
She knew that Jiang Can and Chen Lin used to be classmates and they had a good relationship.
If Chen Lin had private contact with Jiang Yirou, it must be because of Jiang Can.
Fang Qingyu nodded: "Chen Lin and Jiang Can have a good relationship. Sometimes when they get together, Jiang Can will bring Jiang Yirou with him."
When she said this, Shen Huazheng and the others suddenly realized.
No wonder the Ningyang Marquis' Mansion wanted to target Jiang Can this time. I thought they were just angry at him for bringing the person in, but I didn't expect there was a deeper reason.
Princess Lejia even put on a look of understanding. No wonder...
Xiao Han must have taught Jiang Yirou all her tricks, and Chen Lin must have been the target chosen by the mother and daughter a long time ago.
Jiang Yirou has decided to go all out this time, probably because she has no other choice.
Just then, the maids came in with trays and served bowls of steaming ginkgo, bean curd, and barley sweet soup to the table.
Chen Huazheng: "Miss Fang, try the ginkgo, yuba, and barley sweet soup. It is not only delicious, but also has the effect of reducing heat, moistening the lungs and removing dampness, and calming the mind."
Many traditional sweet soups are actually medicinal foods that are beneficial to the body, and ginkgo, bean curd and barley sweet soup is one of them.
Although Fang Qingyu's current condition seemed normal, Shen Huazheng felt that she still needed to drink some sugar water to reduce heat and calm her mind.
"Thanks."
Fang Qingyu smelled the rich bean fragrance and felt much better.
She was a frequent customer of all the food businesses under Shen Huazheng's name, so she naturally knew that this sweet soup had not yet been sold in Yipinlou, Lianxiangzhai or the food court.
Sure enough, if you make a brave decision, good things will happen.
Princess Lejia was also very happy. This bowl of bean curd, ginkgo and barley soup really came at the right time.
She was so engrossed in the story just now that she ate a lot of nuts and her mouth is a little dry now.
Moreover, the sweet soup goes well with the story.
Fang Qingyu stirred the ginkgo, bean curd and barley sweet soup in the bowl with a spoon, scooped up a spoonful and put it into her mouth.
The bean curd sheets are cooked in the pot until they are melted and become smooth and tender.
The soup has a strong bean flavor, and the ginkgo nuts have been soaked into the soup, so even the core of the ginkgo nuts tastes sweet.
Take a bite, and the unique aroma of ginkgo and beans intertwines in your mouth, and the more you chew, the more delicious it becomes.
Fang Qingyu commented seriously: "It's delicious, sweet but not greasy. I feel refreshed after drinking it."
This sweet soup does not feel greasy at all, but rather very nourishing.
Shen Huazheng smiled and said, “Eat more if you like, there’s still a lot.”
Sweetness brings enjoyment to the taste buds, and moistness brings comfort to the body.
A qualified sweet soup must be sweet and smooth.
As she spoke, she also scooped up a spoonful of sweet soup and put it into her mouth.
It is fragrant, tender, soft and moist, and really delicious.
When cooking this sweet soup, yuba must be added in two batches.
The yuba added for the first time must be cooked until it is completely melted so that the soup base tastes like soy milk.
The yuba added for the second time should be cooked until it is not completely melted, so as to retain the soft and smooth texture of the yuba.
Add the fragrance of ginkgo and coix seed, it is really amazing.
Zhou Ying and Princess Lejia were also quietly eating the ginkgo, bean curd and barley soup without saying a word.
Fang Qingyu gently stirred the sweet soup in the bowl with a spoon: "In fact, we have quarreled several times because of Jiang Yirou."
Even though Jiang Jinrong treated the Xiao Han family as his treasures, Jiang Yirou and Jiang Ran's life experiences were still criticized.
But Xiao Han and Jiang Yirou are arrogant and like to attend banquets everywhere and make friends with noble ladies and noblemen.
Some people hate concubines and children born out of wedlock the most, while others simply look down on Xiao Han and Jiang Yirou's faces, and every time they see the mother and daughter at a banquet, they always say a few words to criticize them.
Every time they met, Chen Lin would help Jiang Yirou out.
It was because of Chen Lin’s repeated protection that Jiang Yirou began to have thoughts about him.
Fang Qingyu said calmly, "I reminded him before to stay away from Jiang Yirou. But he didn't listen. He just thought I was just like everyone else and looked down on Jiang Yirou's background. We quarreled a few times, but we made up quickly every time."
In fact, who with a discerning eye can’t see how powerful that mother and daughter are?
Not to mention that Jiang Jinrong abandoned his wife and daughter for Xiao Han, even Jiang Can and Jiang Huai were willing to give up their own sister for Jiang Yirou, which shows how capable Jiang Yirou is.
After every quarrel, Chen Lin would quickly find Fang Qingyu to admit his mistakes and swear that he had nothing to do with Jiang Yirou.
I just took extra care of her for Jiang Can's sake.
The two reconciled, but Fang Qingyu still had a knot in her heart.
She had already prepared herself mentally for the possibility that Chen Lin would have other women in the future.
But that person definitely cannot be Jiang Yirou.
"Later, when Xiao Han got into trouble, Chen Lin saw Jiang Yirou being ridiculed and helped her again. I knew that Chen Lin and I would not be able to get married."
Fang Qingyu drank another spoonful of sweet soup, feeling the rich bean fragrance in his mouth.
"That day he knelt outside the Duke's Mansion and begged bitterly. My father asked me what I thought. I said that if he still wanted me to marry, the only thing he could carry into the Ningyang Marquis's Mansion would be a corpse. My father said he understood, and the marriage contract between the two families was annulled from then on."
After hearing this, Chen Huazheng and the other two understood what would have happened if the attitude of the Duke of Ming's Mansion had not been so resolute after the incident.
Jiang Yirou might really get what she wants.
After all, what she wanted was to be able to enter the Ningyang Marquis' Mansion, just as a concubine.
If the Duke of Ming's Mansion finally fulfills the marriage contract, Jiang Yirou will most likely still enter the Marquis of Ningyang's Mansion.
After all, Ningyang Hou would weigh the pros and cons, and Chen Lin was not averse to Jiang Yirou, and even liked her a little.
Chen Lin hated Jiang Yirou so much that he would rather go on a hunger strike than marry her.
It wasn't because Jiang Yirou drugged him and made him do such a shameful thing in public.
It was because Jiang Yirou disrupted his marriage with Fang Qingyu.
Fang Qingyu looked at Chen Huazheng and Zhou Ying: "I used to think that the fate of women in the world is the same, so why bother to struggle in vain. But later I realized that I was not so willing, and I would also worry about gains and losses. I also want to live for myself without hesitation like you."
