Chapter 192: The whole city will definitely come to propose marriage
"Sister, you are living a very comfortable life in the Marquis' Mansion." Xu Lian'er looked at her rosy face. She was a lot fatter than in the Shangshu Mansion. Xu Wan used to be very thin and pale, but now her skin was getting whiter and whiter.
When she came over just now, she saw Xu Wan and Zong Jincheng talking and laughing. Although they were obviously arguing, the atmosphere between the two was completely different. It was obviously not the hostile relationship they had half a year ago.
The Yuanyang Marquis's family was rich enough to rival a country, so they certainly had to give Xu Wan some money. When Xu Wan first chose this marriage, she joked to her mother that she was stupid for choosing the worst, a mother-in-law from a merchant family, a husband who didn't even know if he was alive or not, and a rebellious son who was famous in the whole capital.
This dead end chess game was actually brought back to life by her.
Xu Lian'er looked at her elder sister's luxurious clothes, then looked at her own clothes, feeling more and more aggrieved. Why, why did she have better conditions than Xu Wan, but lived so much worse than her?
Xu Lian'er was so jealous that she almost went crazy.
Xu Wan swallowed her saliva, trying to lower the hatred she brought to Xu Lian'er. She said worriedly, "Sister, you think too much. I'm just forcing myself. My husband is not in charge of the family. The children are disobedient, and I have to take care of the children of the second wife. And that little playboy from the Shangshu family insisted on moving into my house. He almost burned down our mansion a few days ago. The noise every day makes my head hurt."
The little devil listened to her serious nonsense and rolled his eyes to the sky. Her yard was far away from the big study, so who was disturbing her?
People rely on comparison. After hearing what she said, Xu Lian'er felt better, but soon she felt uncomfortable again.
Because Chen Yunyu came to find her, but his eyes were always on Xu Wan.
Xu Lian'er tightly grasped the handkerchief, jealousy rising to her head. She thought she had married a good husband, but she didn't expect that Chen Yunyu was all show and no substance. Not only did he like to hang out with prostitutes in private, but he was always thinking about Xu Wan. Her charm in her husband's heart was even not comparable to Xu Wan, whom she had always looked down upon!
Xu Lian'er was so angry that she just wanted to strangle Xu Wan to death so that Chen Yunyu would never look at her again.
"Aunt is here too. It's been a long time since we last met. How are you?" Chen Yunyu came up to say hello.
Xu Wan stood up and responded perfunctorily, then grabbed the little devil and asked him to do the work.
The confused kid saw that it was Chen Yunyu and subconsciously snorted at him.
It was him, the stingy guy. When he got angry, he didn't even care about the meal, causing him to go out to eat with Xu Wan in the middle of the day.
Chen Yunyu was just about to come over and say a few more words when he saw Zong Jincheng standing in front of him with an unhappy look on his face.
Chen Yunyu's mouth twitched, and he said with a smile: "Why are you so hostile to me, kid? According to seniority, you should call me uncle."
"I won't scream, you naked bastard." Zong Jincheng went back and thought about it carefully, and discovered that among the people he had blown out of the brothel with firecrackers, there really was Chen Yunyu.
He was just lying to make Chen Yunyu angry, but who would have thought that he would cheat the right person.
Chen Yunyu's face darkened instantly when he heard this: "What nonsense are you talking about, you little beast? Who is the one who is..."
"Who are you calling a little beast?" The little devil was suddenly scolded and immediately got furious. He rolled up his sleeves and was ready to come up and fight.
Xu Wan dragged him and scolded him, "Brother-in-law, what you said is unpleasant, isn't it? Even if Jin Cheng is a child and his words are inappropriate, you can't just insult him directly."
"I..." Chen Yunyu was speechless after being rebuked by Xu Wan. He hadn't seen Xu Wan for several months. He finally saw her and wanted to say a few words to her, but this little beast wanted to expose his past.
Chen Yunyu took a deep breath and then forced a smile, "Yes, yes, my aunt is right to scold me. It's my fault. Jincheng, your uncle apologizes to you. Can you forgive me?"
The little devil replied unhappily: "Hypocritical."
"You!" Chen Yunyu was so angry that he almost wanted to hit someone.
The little devil rolled up his sleeves and said with a stiff neck: "Why, you can't hide it anymore, you still want to fight, do you think I'm afraid of you? I have someone I don't tell anyone!"
Fortunately, Bu Yan is not here at the moment, otherwise he would be furious on the spot.
Chen Yunyu didn't know who Bu Yan was, but with Xu Wan here, he didn't want to show his ugly side. He just glanced at Zong Jincheng, said goodbye to Xu Wan reluctantly, and took Xu Lian'er away.
Only after the two of them left did Xu Wan breathe a sigh of relief.
It's enough to make me feel overwhelmed just by seeing them.
Seeing this, the little devil suddenly realized: "You asked me to come here, didn't you, just to piss them off?"
Xu Wan sighed and said, "Yes, as an adult, it's not easy for me to quarrel with them. But since you're a child, it's okay. They won't dare to yell at you."
The little devil was amused and teased her, "I didn't expect you to be afraid of someone. I thought you were omnipotent."
Xu Wan chuckled and said, "Thank you for your high evaluation of me. I am just an ordinary person who has read a lot of books. I am a novice in the field of home fighting."
"Hahaha, you said you are a newbie, you admitted that you are a homebody idiot...hahaha." The little devil laughed at her crazily.
Xu Wan didn't mind, and instead said, "Fortunately, your father doesn't have a woman in his backyard, and your grandmother is very kind to me, so there's no chance for a novice like me to be discovered."
"Then I know your weakness." The little devil said proudly.
Xu Wan said nonchalantly: "So what if I know? You can still take in a bunch of concubines and let me, as a mother-in-law, fight with them?"
The little devil rolled his eyes at her and said, "Nonsense, I'm still a child, who wants to take a bunch of concubines!"
Xu Wan looked him up and down, and the little devil covered his chest, as if he had been flirted with by a hooligan. He blushed and said, "What are you looking at? Aren't you ashamed?"
Xu Wan teased, "Well, you look OK, and your grades are OK. Apart from your bad temper, bad words, and a lot of crooked ideas, you are a good kid from a noble family. When you grow up, what kind of wife should I find for you?"
When the little devil heard this, his brain immediately started to burn with anger, and then exploded with a bang.
He shouted in dissatisfaction: "What do you mean by looking okay? What do you mean by studying well? I am the most handsome and talented man in the whole capital, smart and kind-hearted! You still need to ask for my hand in marriage? There is no need at all! In the future, all the girls in the capital will cry and shout to marry me. The matchmakers who come to propose marriage can trample the threshold of the Marquis's mansion to pieces. I advise you to replace the threshold of our house with pure iron as soon as possible!"
