The smile on King Qi's face froze.

The princess bought it because she liked it?

This is a shop, not a few boxes of rouge. How much money does Lao Qi have to buy these things?

King Qi felt sour in his heart.

I don’t know how much money the Seventh Brother has saved in the South these years. If I use it to support him…

Thinking of this, the King of Qi looked at Yu Jin with a gentler expression.

Princess Qi on the side felt even more jealous than Prince Qi and couldn't help but glance at Jiang Si.

This was truly a newlywed couple, honeymooning, and the Prince of Yan even bought a shop just for the word "love".

Princess Qi was thinking this, and suddenly she thought of herself.

She and the prince were once newlyweds, but when she thinks about it carefully, she seems to have rarely received any gifts from the prince in recent years...

Princess Qi subconsciously stopped smiling.

"Uncle." Yu Jin greeted Duke Anguo.

Duke Anguo nodded and said, "Since the prince and princess are here, let's go in. It's too hot outside."

The banquet was held in the flower hall, with two tables for men and women.

Although the old lady was old, she was in good spirits. She sat in the seat of honor and quietly looked at Jiang Si. Seeing that she had elegant manners and was calm and composed, she couldn't help but glance at Mrs. Wei, the wife of the Duke of Anguo.

If Wei hadn't failed to take good care of the situation, there would have been no way Ayi would have been able to have an evil relationship with a commoner girl.

She had heard that Fourth Miss Jiang had a strange temper, but now it seemed that she was much better than Qiao Niang.

It's like losing the watermelon while picking sesame seeds.

Having been the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the old lady for so many years, it was obvious to Wei that she could not guess what the old lady was thinking, and she felt upset at the moment.

Her youngest son was so stubborn that he even committed suicide by jumping into the river. What else could she do?

If I don't break off the engagement with the Duke of Dongping and follow my youngest son's will, will I just watch him commit suicide?

In the end, it was all her fault.

The more Wei thought about it, the more upset she became, and the more dissatisfied she became with Qiao Niang.

It's all because of that vixen that bewitched my little son, otherwise there wouldn't be so many troubles at home.

Everyone at the table had different thoughts, but Ji Fanghua was the only one with a genuine smile: "Cousin, which cosmetics shop did the prince buy for you?"

"The dew is fragrant."

Ji Fanghua's eyes lit up: "You actually bought Dewberry. I really like Dewberry's perfume."

Jiang Si smiled and said, "My cousin likes it. I will send you a few bottles every month in the future."

Ji Fanghua thanked him generously: "That's great, I won't have to worry about not being able to buy a maid in the future."

Jiang Si likes Ji Fanghua's personality.

A few bottles of perfumed lotion meant nothing to either her or the Duke's Mansion. If she pushed them back and forth, it would seem petty.

Seeing that Ji Fanghua and Jiang Si were close, Wei felt even more uncomfortable.

On weekdays, Fanghua and Qiaoniang only have a polite relationship and rarely talk to each other.

"Cousin, it seems that the prince treats you very well. You didn't marry the wrong person." Ji Fanghua joked with a smile.

Yu Jin at the other table was very observant and immediately had a much better impression of Ji Fanghua.

Well, there is someone who understands in the Duke of Man’s Mansion.

Hearing this, Ji Chongyi paused holding the wine glass and felt bitter.

Sister, are you saying that Miss Jiang was lucky not to marry him?

He really wanted to look towards that table to see Jiang's reaction, but his reason stopped him from doing so.

My sister is right. To be honest, he didn’t have any feelings for Miss Jiang. It’s just that - Ji Chongyi looked at Yu Jin deeply.

Just seeing other people living happily and peacefully while his married life was a mess and he couldn't even feel comfortable at all, made me feel really bad.

Ji Chongyi laughed at himself and drank the wine in the cup.

Yu Jin took in Ji Chongyi's reaction from the corner of his eye and sneered in his heart.

Humph, he wouldn't even look at such an idiot.

From now on, he and Asi lived a happy life, letting this idiot be jealous.

Yu Jin also drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, feeling the aroma of the wine and feeling extremely comfortable.

At the female table, the atmosphere suddenly became awkward because of Ji Fanghua's words.

Second wife Zhao glared at Ji Fanghua and said, "Child, don't be so disrespectful to the princess."

This silly girl, isn't she hurting my sister-in-law by saying this?

"Mom, I'm not disrespectful at all." Ji Fanghua said coquettishly.

The second wife felt a little embarrassed about her daughter.

Jiang Si smiled slightly and said, "My cousin is right. Maybe I am lucky."

The wife of Duke Anguo looked unhappy.

Having been a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for nearly a year in her previous life, she knew very well how picky this seemingly dignified and kind-hearted Duke's wife was.

At this moment, Jiang Si suddenly felt sympathy for Qiao Niang who was not present.

Princess Qi held the chopsticks in her hands, expressionless, feeling embarrassed and puzzled.

Why was it that every time she sat with Princess Yan, she was the one who was ignored?

Obviously she comes first in terms of age, and her family background is better...

Princess Qi calmed down and tried to talk to Jiang Si, but was met with a cold response.

The people at the table gradually understood what was going on.

When the meal was over, the two princes took their princesses to say goodbye, and the old lady stayed to talk to the Duke of Anguo.

"What's the matter, mother?"

"I had dinner with the two princesses today, and I saw that they were not getting along well."

Duke Anguo smiled and said, "Mother, don't worry about young people's affairs."

"Not worried? You know your sister has high hopes for Prince Qi. I originally thought that Prince Yan would be a helper to Prince Qi in the future since he has won the emperor's favor. But now it seems that it is not that simple."

The discord between the sisters-in-law is so obvious, can the Prince of Yan still do his best to help the Prince of Qi?

Duke Anguo frowned immediately: "Mother, please stop talking like that. What high hopes are there? I think my sister just likes to daydream."

Isn't it good to live a life of glory and happiness? My sister is too tolerant...

"You really are..." Seeing her son's cold expression, the old lady stopped talking, waved her hand to signal Duke Anguo to leave, and started to think by herself.

Ji Chongyi drank two more cups and staggered back to the room.

Qiao Niang was crying silently. When she saw Ji Chongyi coming in, she pursed her lips and waited for him to comfort her, but there was no movement.

A faint smell of alcohol wafted over.

"Drunk again?" Qiao Niang stood up and walked over, feeling a little dissatisfied, suppressing her grievance.

In recent months, Ayi has become more and more greedy.

Ji Chongyi frowned and pushed Qiao Niang's hand away: "You keep nagging even after I've had a few glasses of wine."

"I'm thinking about your health—"

Perhaps because of the alcohol, looking at that aggrieved face, Ji Chongyi blurted out: "At the beginning, my mother and the others all insisted that I should not marry you, and they also said it was for my own good..."

What annoys him most is that people always say it’s for his own good, it’s for his own good!

These words were like a sharp knife, stabbing into Qiao Niang's heart.

Qiao Niang's face turned pale and she asked in a trembling voice, "So, you regret it, don't you?"

The haziness in Ji Chongyi's eyes faded away, and he regained some clarity.

He seemed to have said the wrong thing just now.

"Ayi, speak up, do you regret it?"

Ji Chongyi couldn't save his face and apologized, so he said coldly: "Regret or not, don't talk about these nonsense."

Qiao Niang burst into tears: "Ayi, you just regret it!"

"It's unreasonable!" Ji Chongyi walked away in anger.
