Chapter 57 Unfairness

Although Cheng Jinchu did not have the blessing of his mother's family, he was born into a military family and his status was noble.

No matter how rich Jiang Shu was, she was still the daughter of a merchant family. Her status was low and she could not be seen by the nobles.

"A bunch of vain power-seekers." Sun Yijun, who was dressed in red, snorted and spit.

Sun Yijun, who was independent, had always disdained to associate with those pretentious and hypocritical ladies.

Especially Shen Qingrong, Sun Yijun never

liked her. Naturally, Shen Qingrong didn't like her either. Every time the two bumped into each other, they couldn't help but sneer.

"Pfft, Yijun is really funny." Yu Lan laughed out loud.

Sun Yijun, who was straightforward and ruthless, was simply a breath of fresh air among the ladies in Shangjing.

Hearing Yu Lan's joke, Sun Yijun walked over.

Jiang Shu greeted with a warm smile: "Miss Sun, please take a seat."

Sun Yijun was close to Yu Lan, and Jiang Shu was also close to Yu Lan. Together, the two of them were friends.

Sun Yijun sat down next to Yu Lan, leaned close to Jiang Shu with her shoulder tilted, and whispered: "Look, that lady is pregnant again, and the two previous ones have three children. Will there be a place for you in this mansion in the future?"

Jiang Shu was slightly surprised, and then chuckled: "It doesn't matter."

"What do you mean?" Sun Yijun's curiosity was written on her face.

Although Jiang Shu made a big fuss in the mansion and proposed a divorce, people outside didn't know.

At today's birthday banquet, many people wanted to see Jiang Shu's jokes.

Only Sun Yijun and Yu Lan were worried about Jiang Shu.

"I'm too lazy to fight with them, let them be." Jiang Shu sighed.

Yu Lan and Sun Yijun were confused after hearing this, and when they were about to ask questions, Mrs. Shen came with Mother Jiang.

Shen Qingrong and others immediately gathered around and rushed to congratulate Mrs. Shen on her birthday.

Today's Jing'an Marquis Mansion is supported by General Shen Changze, and with the help of Shen Changhuai and the Lu family, it is only a matter of time before he becomes an important minister of the emperor.

In particular, I heard that the prince had summoned Lu Mingke and Shen Changze several times recently, and today he also came to the Marquis Mansion to congratulate him on his birthday.

The dignitaries who were thinking all over the world smelled the scent and became enthusiastic about the Jingan Marquis Mansion.

Jiang Shu saw Jiang's mother being squeezed away and standing alone, so she quickly got up and went over.

"Mother." Jiang Shu pulled Jiang's mother to sit down and talk in a deserted place.

Jiang's mother patted Jiang Shu's hand and said with concern: "Are you okay?"

Jiang Shu nodded, holding back the sobs in his throat, and smiled: "I'm fine, why is mother with the old lady?"

Jiang's mother glanced at the old lady Shen who was hugged and smiled, and whispered: "You haven't divorced yet, and you are still the wife of the Marquis's Mansion. I went to the mansion to attend the banquet and I should go to see the old lady according to etiquette. At such a critical moment, we can't let people say that we don't know etiquette and convict you on this basis."

"Besides, I also want to test the old lady's tone."

Jiang Shu heard it and pricked up his ears.

Jiang's mother sighed: "The old lady didn't mean to divorce, and the Marquis's Mansion doesn't want to let you leave."

It's not easy to marry someone high, and it's even harder to leave. Jiang's mother regretted it so much that her intestines turned green.

Jiang Shu's face turned cold after hearing this: "It's not up to them to let her go or not."

Almost all the dignitaries in the capital are present at today's birthday banquet, so she will use Shen Qingrong's mouth to expose the divorce matter so that everyone knows about it.

If the Marquis' Mansion won't let her go, then she will force them to let her go.

The mother and daughter whispered to each other, comforting each other and discussing countermeasures.

In the other room, Shen Qingrong wanted to be in the spotlight and deliberately presented a birthday gift in front of everyone.

"Grandma, this is the red jade coral from the South China Sea. I wish you a long life and good health."

Shen Qingrong presented a nearly two-foot-tall red jade coral, which amazed everyone present, and even Yu Lan and Sun Yijun stretched their necks to see the wonder.

Corals grow on the seabed, and ordinary people can't dive down at all. It is extremely difficult to pick them and is rare in the world.

The size of the one Shen Qingrong took out was even rarer and more precious. Even

though Yu Langui was the eldest princess, she had never had one this big in her mansion.

"It's so beautiful. This is the first time I've seen one this big."

"I've seen a pink one in Linglong Pavilion. It's their treasure, but it's only the size of a palm."

"Can I touch it?" someone asked tentatively.

Shen Qingrong said proudly, "Of course you can."

Once someone started, others followed, lining up to watch and touch it.

Seeing this scene, Old Lady Shen was very proud and honored, and her face was full of wrinkles when she smiled.

"Tsk, touching it will make you immortal or cure all diseases, you are all embarrassing." Sun Yijun sneered.

Yu Lan asked her with a smile: "Don't you want to touch it?"

Sun Yijun said stubbornly: "No."

Yu Lan sighed with regret: "Forget it, I have never seen such a big and beautiful coral. I wanted to ask you to watch it together. Since you don't want to, I won't force you."

Sun Yijun: "..."

Yu Lan glanced at her quietly, stood up and walked towards the crowd.

Sun Yijun stamped her feet, stood up and chased after her, saying: "I dare not refuse the princess's invitation."

"Then I'm sorry for you." Yu Lan covered her mouth and chuckled, but didn't expose her.

Sun Yijun frowned and tried to save some face.

"Princess."

Seeing Yu Lan, the crowd gathered around her and dispersed to make way for Yu Lan, and greeted her respectfully.

Sun Yijun followed behind Yu Lan, swinging and taking advantage of her.

Xu Lingxuan glared at Sun Yijun and clenched her palms in anger.

Sun Yijun saw it and deliberately snorted.

Xu Lingxuan's face turned green.

Sun Yijun felt comfortable watching her, with a bright smile on her pretty face, which was particularly dazzling.

"Princess." Old Lady Shen stood up and greeted.

Yu Lan nodded and said, "Old Lady, I think this red jade coral is very rare, I want to get closer to see it."

"Princess, please." Old Madam Shen said hurriedly.

It was a blessing for the Marquis's family to be favored by Yu Lan, and Old Madam Shen was overjoyed.

Shen Qingrong was also honored and explained to Yu Lan enthusiastically.

Sun Yijun looked at her curiously and touched every part.

Yu Lan listened to Shen Qingrong's chattering with a smile.

Finally, Sun Yijun turned around and touched enough, and Yu Lan also finished "watching".

When the two were about to return to their seats, Xu Lingxuan suddenly spoke up and pointed the finger at Jiang Shu.

"I heard that the Jiang family is rich enough to rival a country. I wonder what birthday gift Madam Shen has prepared for us to open our eyes."

All eyes turned to Jiang Shu at once.

Jiang Shu was puzzled and was forced to stop talking to Jiang's mother.

Shen Qingrong waited with glee to see Jiang Shu make a fool of himself.

Sun Yijun and Yu Lan knew that Xu Lingxuan did it on purpose, and took revenge on Jiang Shu by welcoming Xu Lingyi into the mansion.

Before Jiang Shu could speak, Sun Yijun couldn't stand it anymore and stood up first.

"Did you make the Jiang family rich enough to rival a country? Are you responsible for what you said?"

"I... I heard it." Xu Lingxuan gritted her teeth in hatred.

Sun Yijun, this bitch, how can she care about all kinds of trivial matters!

Sun Yijun rolled her eyes: "I also heard that you are unruly, willful, vicious and rude, can you take it seriously?"

"You are talking nonsense!" Xu Lingxuan jumped up in anger.

Sun Yijun, this bitch, dared to tarnish her reputation in public, it was really hateful.

"I learned it all from you. Why are you so anxious? Are you guilty or afraid?" Sun Yijun blinked, looking innocent.

Yu Lan secretly clapped his hands and almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
