Lord Pei had a gloomy face.
His whole body was filled with the oppressive feeling of being in a high position for a long time. Shen Ningzhu also saw a strong murderous intent in the other person's eyes.
A village girl, a maid, who gave them the courage to offend him?
"That's right, what nonsense are you talking about."
The Marquis's wife pointed at Chen Ningzhu, her body trembling with anger, and the finger she was pointing at Chen Ningzhu was shaking as if she was having a seizure. Fortunately, there was a maid supporting her, so she did not fall headfirst.
Chen Ningzhu pouted in disgust.
He leaned close to Liu Zhiyi and whispered in her ear.
"Look, you're not kidding. This whole family is just mentally retarded and physically weak. Look, I just said a few words and they're all half dead. Are they trying to extort money?"
Liu Zhiyi tried hard to suppress his laughter, lowered his voice, and pretended to agree seriously.
"Yeah, what Zhuzhu said makes a lot of sense."
"As the saying goes, health is the capital of revolution. Without a good body, everything is in vain. So don't worry, I won't enter the Pei Mansion."
"That's right. As the saying goes, a blessed person won't enter an unblessed door. My Xiaoyi is a lucky star in the world, so he won't be able to enter any shabby door."
The sound was very low, but it happened to be heard clearly by everyone present.
Jiang Xuanyan knew in his heart that this cat that was scratching people must have done it on purpose.
Lord Pei was so angry that his face turned blue. He threatened them not to regret it, then snorted coldly and left.
The Marquis's wife also glanced at her two best friends with a cold face, took the nanny's hand, and left arrogantly.
Pei Yunchu was a little anxious.
"Ayan, can you say something?"
Liu Zhiyi is now a maid in the Prince's Mansion. As long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince agrees, even Chen Ningzhu can do nothing about it.
With all this trouble, it's definitely impossible for her to marry into the family in style. I guess her parents can only pay half of the agreed dowry and betrothal gifts at most.
But he will try his best to give her the position of a good concubine.
Pei Yunchu frowned and thought in his mind, blaming Liu Zhiyi for not knowing how to restrain himself and causing him such trouble.
Then Jiang Xuanyan said calmly,
"Go back and tell Marquis Pei to be careful with his words. Chen Ningzhu belongs to me. To insult her is to insult me."
"Besides, I can't make the decision on this matter."
"Strictly speaking, Liu Zhiyi was only brought into the mansion by Zhuzhu. He didn't sign a personal contract, so he can't be considered a true member of the Prince's Mansion."
Pei Yunchu:???
"What? Ah Yan, you... you actually let someone who hasn't signed a death contract into your Prince's Mansion?"
For the sake of Chen Ningzhu, he is really losing his bottom line.
"Brother Yan is right. Do you understand? If you understand, get out of here."
Her best friend is a juicy and high-quality cabbage that she raised herself. No pig is worthy of nudging her, let alone smelling her.
"shut up--"
Pei Yunchu roared angrily, and with a swipe of his arm, he swept all the tea sets on the table to the ground.
"I'm just a lowly maid, but the master has already given me the position of concubine. What on earth are you dissatisfied with?"
"Liu Zhiyi, don't be shameless."
As soon as he finished speaking, a slap landed heavily on Pei Yunchu's handsome face.
"you……"
Pah pah——
Liu Zhiyi slapped him twice, both sides resoundingly. In his cold, almond-shaped eyes, there was a ruthlessness Pei Yunchu had never seen before.
"Mr. Pei, let me tell you, although I, Liu Zhiyi, am an orphan, I have been raised by Zhuzhu since I was young. I have never lacked for fine clothes and delicious food, and I have all kinds of delicacies."
"Whatever I'm interested in and want to learn, Zhuzhu will pay for my tuition, hire famous teachers, search for all kinds of secret recipes in the world, and buy them for me."
If she wanted to start a business, she would invest money.
"I, Liu Zhiyi, spent the first half of my life surrounded by love and prosperity. What makes you think I would be so willing to be confined to the inner chambers of the royal family just for the sake of a concubine?"
She has been studying for more than 20 years and has learned many skills, but she didn't do it to make a living and please a man.
Shen Ningzhu raised her hands and applauded.
"Well said, my Xiaoyi is not some toad who is worthy of coveting."
Jiang Xuanyan:......
Pei Yunchu: ...
"Who are you calling a toad?"
"Whoever responds will speak for him."
"you--"
Jiang Xuanyan pinched his brows with a headache, "Yun Chu, you should go back first. Let's talk about this matter after I come back from my mission."
One is his woman, and the other is a brother who grew up with him, so Jiang Xuanyan had to adopt a delaying tactic.
Hearing that there was still room for maneuver, Pei Yunchu suppressed his anger, glared at Chen Ningzhu, and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, Chen Ningzhu said coldly,
"Wait."
The other party turned back angrily,
"What else do you want?"
Shen Ningzhu looked down at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, pinching her chin in thought.
"These tea sets are all valuable porcelain. You broke them, don't you deserve compensation?"
Everyone: ...
"It's just a few cups, no problem."
"Brother Yan, you are wrong. Now, I am also considered a member of the Prince's Mansion. The children I give birth to in the future will also be considered your descendants and will also have a share of the family property in the future."
"They also own a portion of this vast Prince's Mansion. So, how can I let others waste even a single brick, tile, or penny of this place?"
Jiang Xuanyan's dark eyes flickered slightly.
The emotions inside became deeper. He wasn't even dead yet, but this woman was already thinking about how to divide his property?
"You think long-term."
Jiang Xuanyan said quietly, Pei Yunchu also mocked him from the side.
"If you want to have Ayan's child, you have to see if you are qualified. With your village background, without Ayan's support, it would be a foolish dream to want to give birth to the emperor's grandson."
"Yun Chu——"
"Ayan, are you still helping her?"
Jiang Xuanyan glanced at him coldly and said in a deep voice,
"I'll say it again, she belongs to me. I can beat her and punish her, but that doesn't mean others can do the same. So, watch your words. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"But she is of low status and not worthy of you."
"This is a matter between me and her, you don't need to interfere."
Pei Yunchu looked frustrated.
"Alright, I've overstepped my bounds. I'll leave now."
Shen Ningzhu quickly called him,
"Why are you running? You want to pretend to leave in anger so you can avoid paying the bill? You're dreaming. Pay up, pay up. If you don't pay up today, don't blame me for sending someone to collect the debt."
"General Pei, the handsome young man, actually destroyed people's property and refused to compensate. When everyone knows about it, we'll see who will be embarrassed."
Pei Yunchu was absolutely furious.
"You woman, have you never seen silver?"
Shen Ningzhu raised her eyebrows and crossed her arms, "Silver is good, silver is wonderful, silver can be my support."
"you--"
"Okay, okay, I'll give it to you, okay? Who would be blind to marry a vulgar woman like you?"
"Clang—"
A bulging money bag fell from the sky and landed in front of Shen Ningzhu's feet.
