Chapter 139 Birds of a feather flock together



The Prince's residence was managed by Princess Ping, and the two young women that Prince Ping brought back were naturally also handed over to her. Prince Ping's intention in bringing them back was never to employ them.

Seeing the two women's flustered appearance, Princess Ping turned to the matron and instructed her to take them away and settle them in. She said they could deal with the rest later, as she might need these two women again.

After the others were led away, Princess Ping continued chatting with Jiang Xuelin.

She genuinely liked Jiang Xuelin's personality.

Perhaps in the eyes of other mothers-in-law, such a woman is really unfit to be a wife, too outrageous, not only showing her face in public all day long, but also bringing all sorts of trouble to the family. However, Princess Ping felt that Jiang Xuelin was very measured, and that her behavior was both wicked and upright.

...And with a son like Fu Hanlai, she was already used to it.

I can't help but get used to it.

So, looking at her bored son and her daughter-in-law who was listening attentively to her, Princess Ping thought the two were quite a good match.

Ah Shou resembles the prince, but not quite. At least the prince and she live a very good life together, but Ah Shou is not suited to her.

Princess Ping never used to think about these things, but ever since Fu Hanlai and Jiang Xuelin got married, his spirits have been rising higher and higher each day. Princess Ping has realized that the traditional image of a lady from a respectable family is probably not suitable for her son.

Both of them will feel awkward and uncomfortable at that time.

For Ah Shou, such a refined young lady would be someone he couldn't talk to and would be subject to control; for that woman, Ah Shou's lack of ambition was also a source of resentment.

Most women in this world hope that their husbands will achieve great things; few are without such desires.

After talking for a while, Princess Ping asked Jiang Xuelin and Fu Han to leave, while she continued talking to Prince Ping.

...Well, for the sake of the coral bead, Your Highness, please don't be so rude if anything happens next.

Seeing that his wife was not affected and was still very happy, Prince Ping knew that as long as he did not cross her bottom line, she would not care about him much.

In fact, as the head of the family, if Prince Ping really didn't want to, Princess Ping naturally couldn't do anything to him, let alone give him the cold shoulder. However, Prince Ping didn't really care about these things. He felt that his princess was very good and that she was willing to manage him for his own good.

As for a man's pride, only cowardly and insecure men seek pride in women and need women to fawn over them to demonstrate their machismo.

King Ping had always looked down on this kind of person.

Anyway, everyone just envies his happy life with the princess!

While Prince Ping and Princess Ping were enjoying a peaceful and harmonious time, Jiang Xuelin and Fu Hanlai were in a rather chaotic situation.

"Anyway, you owe me a string of coral beads!"

Jiang Xuelin: "..."

They're after her red coral bracelet, aren't they?

I don't want to talk to him.

Instead of ignoring him, we should think about what to do next.

Although Prince Ping said that they didn't need to worry about what happened next, clearly not wanting them to continue fighting against the literati who wielded their pens as swords, Jiang Xuelin still hoped that she could do something.

Another point is that while there are indeed hypocritical scoundrels, there are also genuine Confucian scholars and gentlemen. Jiang Xuelin does not think all scholars are bad because of those who spoil the whole pot, nor does he feel that he should stand on the side of the nobility and be an enemy of the civil officials just because his family is a noble family.

—What nonsense are you thinking about!

"How do you know that Mother didn't send anything to Father? My mother also makes things for my father. If you think that way, it's not unreasonable." Jiang Xuelin stopped, resting her chin on her hand, and looked Fu Hanlai up and down, looking thoughtful.

Fu Hanlai paused for a moment, then immediately interrupted Jiang Xuelin, his face turning somewhat green, "Alright, I know what you're going to say, you don't need to say it now."

Jiang Xuelin, however, wore a mocking expression and did not swallow back the words that were on the tip of her tongue because of Fu Hanlai's words.

“My father, like the King, would find little trinkets for my mother. Since you want me to find some coral beads for you, of course I can. However, my mother would make things for my father by hand, such as purses and clothes. I think my mother made some for my father the other day.”

"Okay, okay, you really don't need to say anymore. I don't want it anymore, alright!"

Jiang Xuelin continued speaking.

"Fu Ashou, why don't you make me a purse yourself later? I have maids to make other things for me, so I'll just make you one. You can make a simple purse, or maybe just a knotted cord. Simple, right?"

Fu Hanlai: "..."

Jiang Xuelin, you're ruthless!

The maids and servants following behind the two had already lowered their heads when Jiang Xuelin mentioned that Marquis Jing'an was similar to Prince Ping, wishing they had no ears and couldn't hear anything.

They couldn't bear to hear what the young master and his wife were saying!

The young master might hold a grudge against you afterwards!

Seeing that she had finally silenced Fu Hanlai, Jiang Xuelin gave a smug snort and turned to continue walking.

Fu Hanlai: "..."

Despicable behavior!

Look at your despicable behavior!

After they returned, the two did not continue their previous conversation. Since Jiang Xuelin had already found out, Fu Hanlai felt that if he didn't make the most of it, wouldn't he be ridiculed by Jiang Xuelin for nothing?

So when he was talking to Jiang Xuelin, he sat down on the edge of the bed without any hesitation, touching and playing with the gem coral tree with one hand while discussing things.
