Chapter 867: The Prince of the Duke's Mansion vs. the Black Lotus Daughter 9
[You like Shen Shen? Is this the ideal destination you carefully selected for yourself? ]
[Chen Shen is a hypocrite, pretentious and annoying! His father, Shen Pan, is even more annoying, a stinking stone in the toilet. With such a father, what good future can Shen Shen have? The whole Shen family is rigid, you will suffer if you marry him! ]
Ji Yunhuan asked in confusion, "The immortal seems to have a prejudice against the Shen family? The Shen family is a real scholarly family with excellent family education. A man can only take a concubine if he is 40 and has no children. This alone is already better than many other families."
Yun Ye still felt that Shen Shen was not worthy of Ji Yunhuan!
He has an even greater grudge against Chen Pan. What a lousy censor, pretending to be upright and incorruptible, but in fact he can't tell right from wrong and only knows how to frame people!
If Chen Pan hadn't made random accusations against him, he wouldn't have been beaten by his father to the point where he couldn't get out of bed, and he almost lost his job in the patrol camp!
Thinking of this, Yun Ye gritted his teeth in anger.
[Anyway, the Shen family is no good, none of them are good! Except for me... The prince has a good temper, and he doesn't care about being reported. If he were replaced by a ruthless and cruel person, he would definitely beat Shen Pan to a pulp! ]
[Chen Pan has a bad temper. He might cause a disaster in the future. His family might even be confiscated and his clan might be exterminated. Can't you find someone you like? ]
Ji Yunhuan had packed up her writing brush and ink, and dug out Mixue's needlework basket, and began embroidering the sachet stitch by stitch.
Mi Xue's embroidery skills were not as good as hers, so she just embroidered some small things and sold them. If she embroidered a lot, it would also be a source of income.
"The Immortal thinks too highly of me, as if I can choose any man in the world. If I can really marry Mr. Shen, I will be marrying above my station."
"When Lord Shen returned to his hometown to worship his ancestors, he brought me back to the capital. If it weren't for Lord Shen's help, I don't know where I would have been sold. The Shen family has been kind to me. If I can marry into the Shen family, I will share the hardships with the Shen family and live my life with Master Shen."
"The censor did offend people, and Lord Shen was demoted, but he still did not change his mind. As long as he is upright, the emperor is also a wise ruler and will not wrongly accuse Lord Shen. No matter how those playboys retaliate, the Shen family will not fall."
The dandy boy Yun Ye was very angry and didn't want to talk!
This woman's heart is too biased. Why does she like the guy named Shen so much?
Ji Yunhuan didn't hear the immortal's chattering and was happy to be free. She quickly embroidered one sachet and then went on to embroider the next one.
Yun Ye sulked alone for a while and felt bored again.
Ji Yunhuan didn't know that he was the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, so it was normal for him to be prejudiced against the eldest son. He was an immortal who saved people from suffering. Ji Yunhuan also collected his calligraphy and treasured it like a treasure.
[Hey! Why aren't you talking? Isn't it okay for me not to say bad things about your lover? ]
[He is just a son of the Imperial Censor. He is not a significant figure. Is he worthy of your being so cautious? If you want to marry him, I will help you. Then I should be able to go back.]
Yun Ye had a strong premonition that he came here just to help Ji Yunhuan fulfill his wish. Once it was completed, he could return to his own body.
He asked Ji Yunhuan to inquire about the news of the Duke's Mansion, but he could only find out that the prince of the Duke's Mansion was studying at home, but he had not heard that the prince was dead, so his body should still be there and he could still "survive".
Ji Yunhuan's eyes were filled with a huge spirit. She could sense that the immortal was right in front of her, so she bowed to the void and said with a smile: "If I can really marry Mr. Shen, I will definitely make a golden statue for the immortal and worship him every day. The immortal is kind and compassionate, and his merits must be fulfilled!"
The next day, the Duke's Mansion sent someone to the door.
The matter had not even been decided yet, and since they were not formal in-laws, it was naturally impossible for the Duke's wife to come in person. Instead, it was a famous matchmaker in Shangjing City who came.
Ji Changmao was still in the yamen. Xu happily received the matchmaker and gave her a huge red envelope as soon as they met.
The matchmaker weighed the amount in her hand and found it was more than what the previous families had given, so she smiled happily. The two of them hit it off immediately and had a great conversation.
When the discussion was almost over, Xu sent someone to invite her daughter over.
Ji Shiting was wearing a pink skirt and a lifelike velvet flower on her head. She didn't wear any tacky gold or silver, but the jade ring around her waist was very valuable, and she had a pair of crystal clear jade bracelets on her hands, which made her look wealthy.
Fifteen or sixteen years old is the age when one is as beautiful as a flower. Plus, one gets up early in the morning to dress up, so naturally everything looks good and is eye-catching.
The matchmaker held Ji Shiting's hand and kept saying nice things to her.
"She is truly a beautiful girl. I have lived for so many years, but I have never seen such a beautiful girl. With such grace, people would believe she is the daughter of a marquis. The Ji family really knows how to raise a daughter. No wonder she caught the eye of the Duke's wife and asked me to take a look."
"Have you ever read any books? I heard that you are good at playing the zither and embroidery. You are good in everything. If the prince sees such a good girl, he will definitely like her."
Ji Shiting was overjoyed by the praise. Even though she had made up her mind to marry Zhao Wenyuan, she still felt honored to be favored by the Duke's Mansion in this life.
A girl from one family is sought after by hundreds of families. It is common to meet several families before getting married. It can also increase the girl's value. She is even qualified to be the Crown Prince's Consort. She is a hundred times better than Ji Yunhuan. Zhao Wenyuan will only love her more!
Xu was afraid that Ji Shiting would say something wrong, so she answered first: "It's enough for a girl to be educated. She is not blind. She can only recognize a few words. She can't compare with the prince who is both civil and military."
"A woman should just stay at home and not take the imperial examination. She should serve her husband well, be filial to her parents-in-law, and have children. I have consulted a fortune teller and found that Shi Ting is destined to have many children and good fortune. She will definitely have a boy!"
I heard that Prince Yun is uneducated and unskillful, so he definitely wouldn't like to marry someone who is too knowledgeable. But I can't just say that, I have to say it in a nice way.
Moreover, Ji Shiting really didn't like studying. Xu originally wanted to give her daughter a title of talented woman, but her daughter was really not motivated, so she had to give up.
His piano skills were also forced to practice by Xu, but they can only be considered mediocre and barely presentable.
As for embroidery, she also asked famous embroiderers to teach her, but Ji Shiting always snatched Ji Yunhuan's embroidery to hand in, and Ji Yunhuan was unable to hand it in and was punished instead.
It was said in Shangjing City that Ji Shiting was good at embroidery, so Xu just turned a blind eye to it. She just let the reputation spread, no matter whether it was true or not.
The matchmaker was very satisfied with the embroidery. "That's great! I heard there is another concubine in the mansion who also attended the flower-viewing banquet at the Duke's Mansion. Why didn't I see her today?"
Xu looked embarrassed and sighed, "Family disgrace should not be made public. I don't want to say it, but you are a real person, so I am not afraid to say this in front of you."
"I thought I treated both sisters the same, and I took her to the banquet, but she actually wanted to harm her sister and refused to admit her fault, causing a huge uproar. It's hard for me to control such a precious girl, and the master ordered her to be confined to her house, so she can't come out to meet guests."
