Chapter 190 The Peasant Girl and the Prince Whose Life-Saving Grace Was Robbed (25)



Ying Nianrong figured this out and told Jing Shengwen about it when he returned home.

She didn't even look at the cakes Jing Shengwen brought back this time. She couldn't buy many cakes with her dowry.

Jing Shengwen coaxed Ying Nianrong all night long before he finally calmed her down.

The next day I told Aunt Sun about this.

Aunt Sun bluntly said that Danruo was a disaster. If it weren't for her, her son would have saved Jing Ruchen. The Marquis then took the opportunity to transfer Jing Ruchen's position as the crown prince to her son. How simple it was.

She came out to disrupt the situation, flew to the top and became a phoenix, but now it seems that things are going to ruin her again.

Then she couldn't let this disaster continue to exist, she had to find a way.

The most important thing at the moment is to win over Ying Nianrong, the daughter-in-law. She personally prepared a table of dishes, invited Ying Nianrong, and then promised that when Jing Jing'er gets married in the future, she will give part of Jing Jing'er's betrothal gifts and dowry to Ying Nianrong.

Ying Nianrong then smiled, which showed that in Aunt Sun's eyes she was more important than her own daughter.

She is now loved by her husband and her mother-in-law is also nice to her. Danruo is jealous of the harmony between her and her husband, so she deliberately said that to her in order to sow discord between her and her husband.

But she soon stopped laughing, because Jing Shengwen said in public that he wanted to take the sixth daughter of the Yongchang Earl as a concubine, but was rejected, and the servants spread the news.

Jing Shengwen came back covered in bruises. As soon as he entered the room, Ying Nianrong scratched him all over the face. He no longer had the gentleness of the past.

The servant in the room pulled Ying Nianrong away. Jing Shengwen went to the study with a dark face. Ying Nianrong sat in the room crying.

The servant passed the news to Aunt Sun. After Aunt Sun found Jing Shengwen to understand the situation, she hurried to coax Ying Nianrong.

Ying Nianrong's eyes were swollen like walnuts, and Aunt Sun scolded Jing Shengwen first.

She held her in her arms and coaxed her gently, and then when she saw that Ying Nianrong was in a better mood, she told her what she knew.

It turned out that the sixth daughter of the Yongchang Earl had been repeatedly frustrated in her subsequent attempts to find a husband because Jing Shengwen had broken off her engagement.

The Sixth Miss took advantage of the servants' inattention and slit her throat. Fortunately, she was discovered in time and rescued.

The eldest son of the Yongchang Earl's family is a reckless person. It was he who started the gambling game at the banquet at the Prince's Mansion that day. When he saw that Sheng Wen did not bet on Danruo, the future sister-in-law of the mansion, but bet on you to win, he thought that you and Sheng Wen had been having an affair for a long time.

Falling into the water was just a show you put on so that you could have a legitimate reason to cancel the marriage between Sheng Wen and the Sixth Miss.

He has been talking about these rumors all the time, but Sheng Wen was afraid that you would be unhappy if you knew about them, so he never told you about the criticism he had received outside.

But this time, when the Sixth Miss attempted suicide, the eldest son of the Yongchang Earl beat Sheng Wen in the street and bluntly said that he was the one who killed his sister.

Seeing that Miss Six was about to commit suicide, the people around her felt sympathy for her and kept blaming Sheng Wen.

Sheng Wen was forced to secretly discuss with the eldest son of Yongchang Earl that since the Sixth Miss could not get married, he had no choice but to be responsible for her.

But he already had a wife and could not let her down, so the sixth lady could only become his concubine.

The eldest son of the Yongchang Earl started shouting loudly, saying that even if his sixth sister became a nun, she would never be Sheng Wen's concubine.

Sheng Wen had no choice but to do so for the sake of his reputation. If others found his fault now, his job would be in vain.

Aunt Sun sighed:

"As soon as Sheng Wen got home, he wanted to explain everything to you, fearing that you would be sad. But you ended up beating him up. When I went to see him, he told me to comfort you first. Sheng Wen really loves you deeply.

"I'm carrying all this infamy now just to be with you. Otherwise, you would have lost your reputation. The Marquis originally wanted you to be his concubine, but it was Sheng Wen who begged the Marquis and me. Seeing you two end up like this today, I feel so sorry for you both."

After hearing all this, Ying Nianrong felt very guilty and wanted to go see Jing Shengwen immediately.

Aunt Sun stopped her and asked her to take care of herself first, get some sleep and look for Jing Shengwen when her complexion improved.

In fact, Jing Shengwen is still angry, and if she goes there now, she will definitely be exposed.

Aunt Sun also wants to persuade Jing Shengwen.

Now he could only hope that the Duke of Ying's Mansion would help his son with his job.

The next day, Ying Nianrong returned to the Duke of Ying's Mansion with the gifts carefully prepared by Aunt Sun, asking the old lady to do something for her.
