Chapter 64 Lin Tingfeng, do you want to break up with me?
When the mother and daughter arrived at Zhufengyuan, Zhuang Shihan was feeding Lin Tingfeng medicine.
Hearing the voice, she quickly turned around, wiped the medicine stains from the corner of her mouth, stood up, and greeted with a smile.
Madam Lin stepped forward and took her hand, a smile in her eyes. "My dear child, you have worked hard these days. I always heard my Feng'er talk about you, but I never had the chance to meet you. I never thought you would be even more beautiful than the beauty praised in this boy's letter."
Zhuang Shihan's face turned even redder, with a hint of shyness flashing in her eyes. "Brother Feng is exaggerating. I'm just an ordinary-looking woman. How can I be called a beauty?"
Madam Lin thought the same, but she continued to praise him, "My Feng'er has always had excellent taste. There's no reason why he wouldn't choose someone he chooses."
"That's true. Princess Yong'an is very beautiful, apart from anything else." Zhuang Shihan agreed.
As soon as these words were spoken, the room became quiet instantly.
Lin Tingfeng coughed lightly and explained on Zhuang Shihan's behalf, "Shihan has a free and easy personality. Unlike women who are trapped in their boudoirs all day, she is very generous and kind, and would never fuss over trivial matters."
Hearing this, Madam Lin smiled so brightly that her teeth were exposed. She clapped her hands and said, "It's a good thing for a woman to be tolerant. I like girls like this the most. Don't learn from those jealous girls. Their hearts are smaller than a needle point. They even think that their husbands can take a concubine..."
"Mother!" Lin Tingfeng interrupted her, realizing something was amiss. "Didn't you say you had something for Shihan?"
"Yes, yes, yes. Look at my temper. I completely forgot it for a moment." Old Madam Lin smiled and took off a bracelet from her wrist and put it on Zhuang Shihan's hand.
She said, "This bracelet was personally handed to me by Feng'er's grandmother, my mother-in-law, on the second day after our wedding. It is a family heirloom passed down from generation to generation in our Lin family."
Zhuang Shihan was flattered. Looking at the bracelet on her wrist, which wasn't of great quality but had extraordinary significance, she whispered, "Auntie, this is too precious."
Seeing that she liked it, Madam Lin was even happier. "This is for you. Just keep it. Don't think it's worthless."
"How could that be!" Zhuang Shihan's eyes widened as she hurriedly said, "Auntie, why would you think that? I like it very much. It's just that I came here in a hurry today and didn't prepare any gifts. Auntie, you can take your sister to pick out some later to see if there's anything you like among the things I sent you that day."
Madam Lin frowned, "How can this be possible? That's your dowry."
"We're all family sooner or later. There's no need to distinguish between yours and mine. These are just external possessions. If you like, feel free to pick more!"
Hearing this, Madam Lin burst into laughter and said, "Look at you, child, you are too polite."
Lin Tingxuan hurriedly stepped forward and said with admiration in her eyes: "Sister-in-law is so good to us!"
When they got closer, Zhuang Shihan noticed the dress she was wearing. Not only was the dress faded, but the style also looked like it was from a few years ago.
How could the third young lady of the general's mansion be dressed so shabbily?
Noticing her gaze, Lin Tingxuan took a few steps back, blushing and lowering her head.
Zhuang Shihan quickly took two steps forward, took her hand, and said with a gentle smile, "I felt close to Sister Shihan the moment I saw her. It just so happens that I don't have any sisters either, so you should treat me as your own sister from now on."
Remembering what Madam Lin had told her when she came, Lin Tingxuan timidly raised her head, tears glistening in her eyes, "Really?"
Zhuang Shihan: "Of course it's true."
Lin Tingxuan raised the corner of her lips at her, still looking a little scared.
This made Zhuang Shihan a little depressed.
Although she is not a stunning beauty, she is not so hideous that it would scare people, right?
Seeing the annoyance on her face, Madam Lin sighed and said, "Don't blame me, Princess. Tingxuan is still young and has suffered losses before because of her credulity towards Song... She is not truly afraid of you."
Lin Tingxuan nodded quickly, looking both scared and happy.
Looking at Madam Lin who was hesitant to speak, and thinking of the word "Song" she had just blurted out, Zhuang Shihan couldn't help but frown, "Don't worry, sister. Although I'm not a gentle person, I always keep my word and I'm very protective of my shortcomings.
Remember, from now on in this capital, no one, including me, Zhuang Shihan, will dare to bully you."
"Wow, sister-in-law, you are so nice!" Lin Tingxuan's eyes were filled with tears and she hugged her directly.
Zhuang Shihan was so coaxed by the call of "sister-in-law" that she not only gave her two silver notes of one thousand taels so that she could buy clothes, but also took off the valuable pearl hairpin on her head and replaced it with the old-fashioned jewelry.
The two of them felt like they had met too late. If Old Madam Lin hadn't stopped them, they might have become sworn brothers on the spot.
After they left, Zhuang Shihan looked into Lin Tingfeng's eyes, which were filled with a doting smile, and sighed, "It's good to be young, full of energy and vitality."
Lin Tingfeng frowned and said seriously, "You are only two years older than Shihan. You are at the best age for a girl. That little girl must be envious of you."
"Oh, you won't understand even if I tell you." Zhuang Shihan glared at him, walked over and lay down in front of the bed, looking into his eyes.
There seemed to be a flicker of fire in the lingering eyes.
Looking at her delicate and tempting red lips, Lin Tingfeng's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he couldn't help but stretch out his fingers.
The moment her fingers were about to touch her skin, Zhuang Shihan leaned back, widening the distance between them.
Facing Lin Tingfeng's eyes that were slightly annoyed, Zhuang Shihan chuckled and lowered her voice to seduce him, "Brother Feng, if you answer me a question obediently, I'll give you a kiss, okay?"
"Okay." Lin Tingfeng said for some unknown reason.
If he can still resist such temptation, can he still be considered a man?
Zhuang Shihan stretched out a finger, circling his chest, and asked softly, "Didn't you tell me before that you would divorce Song Yanxi before we got married?"
Hearing this, Lin Tingfeng's confused eyes suddenly cleared up.
He looked at Zhuang Shihan, his brows knitted into a "川" shape, "You don't believe me?"
Zhuang Shihan was stunned by the question, and before she could react, she heard Lin Tingfeng say coldly, "Since you don't believe me, the rest of your life will be long, and the two of you will inevitably become the resentful couple you once talked about.
Rather than tormenting each other later, it is better to end it sooner rather than later. A short pain is better than a long one."
As he spoke, he looked towards the door and ordered in a cold voice: "Come here, escort Princess Shihan out of the house!"
Hearing the footsteps, Zhuang Shihan finally came to her senses and stood up suddenly, "You are so mean, Lin Tingfeng, you want to break up with me, right?"
Lin Tingfeng's eyes flashed with reluctance, and he said in deep pain, "I don't want you and I to be suspicious of each other after we get married. I don't want you to become the person you once hated the most under day-to-day torture."
What Zhuang Shihan hated most in her life were the women in the harem who schemed for men, and she also looked down on women who were suspicious all day long. She had told him all this herself.
Zhuang Shihan couldn't help but feel touched when she heard that he remembered every word she said so clearly.
With a husband like this, what else could a woman ask for?
"Brother Feng..." Zhuang Shihan's eyes were hot. She rushed forward and threw herself into Lin Tingfeng's arms, and took the initiative to surrender: "I won't ask anymore. Since you said you have no interest in her, I believe you."
Lin Tingfeng endured the pain and hugged her tightly, saying softly: "You are the only one I love in this life."
Whenever Zhuang Shihan looked up, she would find that the man whose eyes were full of love in the past was now full of calculation.
