Chapter 46 What did you call me?
Faced with this situation, most people would probably be so scared that their legs would go limp, but the person standing there was Cai Jingshu.
She had practiced martial arts since she was a child and grew up in the yamen. She followed the officials of the yamen to investigate cases and carry out missions. She had seen many vicious criminals, those who could really make people feel death from the bottom of their hearts. But even so, she had never been afraid. What's more, the one in front of her was just a rich lady who could only talk fast.
"I am Cai Jingshu, the daughter of Cai Chong from the government office, and I am honored to meet Miss Rong." Although Cai Jingshu has not been an ordinary person since she was a child, she has learned all the necessary etiquette.
When Rong Yiyi spoke so arrogantly, she did not follow her temper and argue with Rong Yiyi, but bowed respectfully first.
The difference is immediately apparent!
"You're just the daughter of a small government official, and you're not qualified to act wildly in front of me." Rong Yiyi didn't feel the slightest bit ashamed. Instead, she sneered disdainfully, "Is this what your father taught you? He taught you to make things difficult for me." She was determined to make things difficult for Cai Jingshu today.
Shu Wan can't move for the time being, so isn't it okay to use Cai Jingshu as the surgery?
"In reply to Miss Rong, my father never taught me to make things difficult for you. On the contrary, it was precisely because of my humble status that he often taught me to be humble and polite, and not to make enemies with others outside. Otherwise, with my status, if I get into trouble, I will only have one way to go, and one way to go is death." Cai Jingshu was neither humble nor arrogant, and her words were heard clearly by everyone.
Shu Wan couldn't help but want to applaud Cai Jingshu.
Yes, that's what Cai Jingshu meant. My father always told me that I have no backing and should not offend people easily outside, otherwise I would offend people and die without knowing how. Unlike you, Miss Rong, you are the sister of the city lord and have a noble status. You can do what you want. Even if you kill people or burn things, no one will dare to do anything to you!
Everyone present, except Rong Yiyi, the big-breasted and brainless girl, should understand the meaning of this sentence.
Everyone looked at each other for a moment, thinking that Rong Yiyi would definitely not give up today.
"Hmph, you're smart!" Rong Yiyi snorted coldly, and her expression relaxed a bit.
Everyone: ...
A flock of crows flew over everyone's head...
Shu Wan: Rong's parents are really partial. They gave all their smart genes to Rong Chen, even though they are both their biological children. Why is it that when it comes to Rong Yiyi, there is only a pile of tofu dregs left? "If you kowtow to me now and apologize, maybe I can let you go." Rong Yiyi was still talking to herself.
"Hey, aunt." Shu Wan suppressed his smile and pretended to be serious. "Today's banquet is held in my name. Everyone here is my guest. If you punish Miss Cai, and it gets out, not only will people think that Miss Rong is narrow-minded and intolerant, but who will dare to visit in the future, right? You just released the ban, and you fined Lord Cai's daughter. Have you thought about how to explain to your brother?" Shu Wan understood one thing. With outsiders present, the matter cannot be made too awkward, which would give people a topic of conversation after dinner. People like Rong Yiyi are more suitable to be dealt with slowly behind closed doors.
Rong Yiyi was not afraid of Shu Wan, but her question of how to explain to Rong Chen did scare her!
Her brother was usually mean to her, and Shu Wan now brought up Rong Chen. Rong Yiyi had suffered enough from being grounded this time, and she didn't want to go through it again. So, she was making a choice, considering whether to get herself involved in order to punish Cai Jingshu.
"Miss Shu!" At this time, an inappropriate voice came.
For a moment, everyone turned their heads and looked at the person who spoke, to see which girl could shout out such an offensive name.
When everyone looked over, who else could this person be except Yu An Ning?
Ignoring everyone's gazes on her, Yu An Ning continued to accuse Shu Wan in a righteous manner.
"Miss Shu, after all, Yiyi is the city lord's sister. How can you help outsiders deal with her? Miss Cai was disrespectful to Yiyi, but instead of punishing her, you asked Yiyi to keep quiet. Miss Shu, what you did is really unacceptable." She spoke in a provocative tone, her face full of contempt. If you didn't know, you would think Shu Wan had committed a capital crime.
Seeing someone helping her, Rong Yiyi was so moved that she almost cried! Cai Jingshu had a hot temper, so she would never tolerate Yu Anning's distortion of the truth. She rolled up her sleeves and wanted to fight with Yu Anning, but Shu Wan quickly stopped her.
She pressed her hand down, signaling Cai Jingshu not to be anxious, then turned gracefully and looked at Yu An Ning.
"Hmph, Shu Wan, I want to see how you end up today. If you let Rong Yiyi punish Cai Jingshu and offend the Cai family, you are the one who hosted this banquet. Let's see how you will explain to Brother Chen. But if you help Cai Jingshu and let Rong Yiyi suffer, she will complain to the old lady later, and your life will still not be easy. No matter what you do today, you will not get any good results. Hmph, you are not worthy of being the city lord's wife!"
When Yu An Ning was feeling proud, the wild laughter in his heart made Shu Wan's eardrums hurt.
She couldn't help but feel ashamed. She wondered why a little girl suddenly appeared and was so hostile to her. It turned out that she was Rong Chen's admirer!
"What did you call me?"
Just as everyone was waiting to see how Shu Wan would deal with the matter, she looked at Yu An Ning with confusion on her face and asked.
"Uh..." Yu An Ning had to swallow all the words he had prepared.
What is the point that Shu Wan is focusing on? Is this the point? Isn't the point that she is thinking about how to properly resolve this matter?
But it's also good to focus here, she can still ruin Shu Wan's reputation.
"I call you Miss Shu, is there any problem?" She raised her chin proudly, as if she could put Shu Wan under her feet.
"Do you know what banquet we are attending today?" Shu Wan had a good temper and a faint smile. Today she came to teach Yu An Ning how to behave, but Shu Wan searched her mind and did not find any information about this person in the original owner's memory.
They don't know him! "Of course I know. I attended a banquet at the City Lord's Mansion!" Yu An Ning felt that the questions Shu Wan asked were really stupid.
"Since it's a banquet at the City Lord's Mansion, why do you call me Miss Shu all the time? Don't you know that you should call me the City Lord's Wife?" Shu Wan still had a smile on her face, but the invisible pressure from her body still made Yu An Ning inexplicably scared.
"Madam of the City Lord?" Yu An Ning, with the mentality of not being afraid, stared at Shu Wan stubbornly, "How come I didn't know that Brother Chen was married? I heard a few days ago that Brother Chen had important matters to attend to, so he didn't get married with you. I guess, in this case, it can be considered that he is married!" She could hardly hide the pride in her eyes.
Rong Chen: Do you think I'm smart? I exchanged it for my sister's IQ.
