Chapter 85 Deceiving Pei Shushu



Jiang Shuwan still welcomed Pei Shushu.

During the clan banquet, Pei Shushu stood up for her against Jiang Yao, and she remembered it.

"Shushu, is there something you need?"

"Are you hungry? Come and eat something with me?"

Jiang Shuwan greeted her warmly, and Qingxing went straight to prepare bowls and chopsticks for Pei Shushu.

Pei Shushu refused outright.

"You don't eat after noon, so why are you eating again?"

Her words carried a hint of resentment and resentment.

She has come to Jiang Shuwan's courtyard several times.

Jiang Shuwan was always eating, and it was never during mealtimes.

Pei Shushu felt a surge of anger.

I think Jiang Shuwan is acting a bit out of line.

"Not eating after noon, you and the Crown Prince say exactly the same thing."

Jiang Shuwan shook her head and sighed.

Of course she knew what Pei Shushu was thinking.

The current rule is to eat two meals a day, and not eating after noon is a rule ingrained in the bones of these young ladies.

For example, just now with Pei Yanzhi, she politely asked him if he wanted to eat together.

Pei Yanzhi also refused directly, citing his "no food after noon" rule.

However, unlike Pei Shushu, whose emotions were readily apparent on her face, Pei Yanzhi showed little emotion.

He didn't say a word about her drinking.

Jiang Shuwan didn't know if he genuinely thought these were trivial matters or if he was simply uninterested in her.

So they don't care at all that she drinks or that she eats three meals a day.

Anyway, the boss had no complaints about her, so she had no choice but to climb the ladder.

This kind of opportunity doesn't come every day.

You should know that when she was in the Jiang family, she always ate three meals a day.

Upon arriving at the Marquis's residence, one finds it governed by strict rules.

With the Wen family still watching her closely, she dared not openly eat three meals a day.

She always had Li Gui's family secretly bring her dinner every day.

Otherwise, according to the current rules, the second meal is eaten at 3 pm. If we let her go hungry until 9 am the next day, she would starve to death.

Moreover, at her current age, she would be in the prime of her growth period in modern times.

She's not even 1.6 meters tall yet, and she wants to grow taller.

You should eat more to get some nutrition.

Thinking about it, Jiang Shuwan felt a little regretful.

If she had known the young boss was so indifferent to her eating three meals a day, she should have eaten more openly.

Eating dinner every day feels like doing something wrong.

So tragic~

"What did you say? Big brother came by? He didn't care?"

"He also gave you a piece of imperial jade?"

After hearing Jiang Shuwan's explanation, Pei Shushu was completely bewildered.

Her eldest brother was raised by the old lady and was very particular about rules.

Of course, knowing her older brother as she did, he would never give a woman the cold shoulder just because of a meal.

But he even gave her a jade pendant as encouragement. How come this is different from the older brother she knows?

"Yes, come and see for yourself."

As Jiang Shuwan spoke, she took out the jade pendant that she had put away.

"The prince said that I am at the age where I am growing and told me to eat more."

With her silver tongue, she didn't mention a word about why Pei Yanzhi gave her the gift—it was because of the blackboard—and completely fooled Pei Shushu.

Pei Shushu glared angrily at Jiang Shuwan, the young girl sulking.

She was raised according to the rules of aristocratic families, and the rule that Jiang Shuwan eats three meals a day contradicts the education she received.

She was not used to it.

But when she thought that Pei Yanzhi hadn't said anything, she felt too embarrassed to say anything herself.

"Then why are you still reading those kinds of books? Let me tell you, don't let your guard down just because the old lady approves of you."

"Your wife is keeping an eye on you every day."

Fearing that Jiang Shuwan might not know the gravity of the situation, Pei Shushu gently advised her.

It's really inappropriate for an unmarried young woman to say these things.

But there's nothing I can do!

The wife has always favored the second brother, and if Jiang Shuwan doesn't behave well, she'll definitely be punished.

She came over to give Jiang Shuwan a reminder.

Who told Jiang Shuwan to marry her respected elder brother?

The wife is so biased towards the second brother.

She has to help her older brother.

Moreover, the elder brother was sending silk and jade pendants, which shows that he quite likes Jiang Shuwan, his sister-in-law.

Since her older brother liked it, she had no choice but to accept it.

Although she couldn't understand Jiang Shuwan.

Whether it's a clan banquet, or today's family ancestral worship and reunion dinner, Jiang Shuwan's manners and etiquette are impeccable.

The ladies and young women of the clan all praised her highly.

But she's completely different in private.

Not only did she provide three meals a day, she also heated the kang (a traditional heated bed).

Which aristocratic family heated the kang (a traditional heated brick bed)?

It's a little embarrassing, okay...

And she even reads those kinds of books...

Pei Shushu stared at Jiang Shuwan with a hint of resentment in her eyes.

She really hadn't expected her brother to like this.

"What book? What's wrong with me reading?"

Jiang Shuwan was stumped by her question.

"You're still pretending, it's that one you saw last time..."

In front of the servants, Pei Shushu couldn't be too explicit. She gestured to Jiang Shuwan with winks and eyes, pointing to the book she had seen with her last time.

She was actually quite relieved, because Jiang Shuwan's courtyard was full of her loyal dowry servants.

Otherwise, if word got out that she was reading those kinds of books, her wife might divorce her on the spot.

"!"

stop?

Do I have to take a break after reading a book?

What was she looking at?

She didn't read any books that she shouldn't have read, did she?

Jiang Shuwan was stunned for a moment. She slowly recalled and finally remembered the cover of the book.

Then look at Pei Shushu's awkward and embarrassed expression.

It was only later that I realized what had happened, and then it dawned on me.

"You don't think I'm reading some kind of erotic book, do you?"

"How can you be so vulgar? How can you so casually mention this kind of book!"
