Even though Princess Ping didn't say anything, Jiang Xuelin felt that she had seen through all of Fu Hanlai's lies.
That was an intuition.
Fu Hanlai's words might fool Prince Ping, but they won't fool Princess Ping.
Jiang Xuelin thought Princess Ping would get angry and had prepared to deal with it, but Princess Ping just sighed and told her to get up. "You must be tired from yesterday's day. Sit down and rest. The Prince and Ashou should be back soon."
As for the things that both the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law knew, they tacitly refrained from mentioning them.
Princess Ping simply advised that the two of them should work things out together and live a good life.
Whether she ran away from the marriage or not, the two of them are now married, so it wouldn't be good for her to run away and get a divorce. Besides, her son is a bit simple-minded; if he really didn't have any feelings for Jiang Xuelin, he wouldn't have done so much.
It was because someone spoke ill of Jiang Xuelin that she got into a fight with someone else and was impeached by the censor, and she also took the blame for the consequences of the two running away from their marriage... Only that silly son himself didn't think that way.
As a woman, Princess Ping knew all too well what it meant when a man truly cared for another woman.
Of course, her foolish son attributed all of this to the fact that he and Jiang Xuelin were mortal enemies.
—The mortal enemies of equality.
There were some things she simply didn't want to say.
Moreover, even if there is no romantic love between the two, their familiarity with each other and their childhood friendship suggest that their future will be bright. There are very few couples in this world who come together because they love each other. Most people have only met a few times before getting married, and some unmarried men and women even meet for the first time on their wedding night.
Princess Ping understood this and naturally wouldn't make things difficult for Jiang Xuelin.
Most importantly... there's no way to make things difficult for them.
If Fu Hanlai hadn't run away from the marriage, she could have rightfully accused Jiang Xuelin of disrespecting the Prince Ping's mansion. But the problem is, it wasn't just the young lady who ran away from the marriage; her son did too.
And these two!
They only returned to continue the wedding after hearing the news that the other party had run away from the ceremony.
Princess Ping had now almost pieced together the whole story, and besides marveling at the wonder of fate, she couldn't say anything else.
It really was fate.
It was destined that they would be together.
This Prince Ping's mansion may not be able to keep quiet in the future.
—It's alright. With the Prince and his son Ah Shou around, the Prince's mansion has never been quiet. This is just another pebble thrown into an already turbulent pond. It's a minor issue.
Minor issue...
"Since Sister Xie calls you Lin'er, I will call you that from now on. All the things that A-Shou did are in the past. Let's live a good life from now on."
—I know about your elopement, but that's all in the past, so I won't hold it against you. Just live a good life from now on.
Understanding the implied meaning in Princess Ping's words, Jiang Xuelin breathed a sigh of relief, but was also somewhat surprised. "Thank you, Your Highness... thank you, Mother."
What else can she do? They're already married; she can't just get a divorce on the spot, can she? She can't bear the shame!
And if she really dared to do that, her mother would definitely beat her.
“I’m entrusting Ah Shou to you from now on. I hope you two will work together as a couple. If he does anything wrong, just tell me…” Then I disciplined him.
Just as she was about to say that, Princess Ping suddenly remembered that before their marriage, Fu Hanlai had suffered countless losses at Jiang Xuelin's hands. If Fu Hanlai were to do something wrong, she wouldn't even need to lift a finger; Jiang Xuelin could take care of him herself.
Jiang Xuelin saw that Princess Ping had stopped halfway through her speech. She looked up at her with a puzzled expression as she listened to the teachings with her head bowed.
Then?
"...Just let me know and I'll send someone to fetch a doctor. You just need to pack up."
Despite the fact that her son and the girl had been fighting for so many years, Princess Ping still knew a lot about Jiang Xuelin and what kind of person she was, so she spoke these words without any hesitation.
They weren't worried that Jiang Xuelin would actually hurt Fu Hanlai.
It can be said that Jiang Xuelin deserves a considerable share of the credit for Fu Hanlai becoming a playboy with principles who never commits any heinous acts.
Princess Ping was quite relieved to hand Fu Hanlai over to her.
Perhaps she won't have to worry about it much in the future.
Thinking of this, Princess Ping looked at Jiang Xuelin with even more kindness and gentleness.
—It wasn't easy for her to manage Prince Ping, and now that her son has someone to take over, that's really great.
At this moment, Princess Ping finally realized the benefits of marrying Jiang Xuelin.
While the Prince of Ping and his son were still away, Princess Ping spoke to Jiang Xuelin in detail about the precautions to take when she went to the palace to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager, and also mentioned the Empress Dowager's likes and dislikes.
"I will go with you two later. Don't worry, the Empress Dowager is a kind and easy-going person. She has always doted on Ashou and will not make things difficult for you."
It's certainly unlikely that Jiang Xuelin will be made things difficult.
Putting aside the fact that Jiang Xuelin saved Fu Hanlai that day, even from the time Fu Hanlai was a child, the Empress Dowager also believed that Fu Hanlai's physical fitness and martial arts training were thanks to Jiang Xuelin.
Before the age of twelve, Fu Hanlai was very weak and could not endure hardship, so he was unwilling to train with his martial arts master.
Based on these factors, the Empress Dowager had a very good impression of Jiang Xuelin and always felt that Jiang Xuelin was Fu Hanlai's lucky star. Now that the two were married, she certainly couldn't find fault with Jiang Xuelin.
Moreover, their reputation was enhanced because they saved Fu Hanlai, so they had no choice but to get engaged.
Although the Empress Dowager thought her grandson was perfect, the woman was still the one who suffered in this matter.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law chatted for a while longer before Prince Ping returned, panting, followed by Fu Han, whose clothes were somewhat disheveled.
After sitting down at the head of the table, Prince Ping drank the cold tea in his cup in one gulp. Then, he looked at Jiang Xuelin apologetically and said, "Lin'er, this rebellious son has done such a thing. I am truly sorry. Don't worry, if you want to deal with him, your mother and I will have no objections!"
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
She felt a little guilty accepting this apology.
Fu Hanlai felt wronged but couldn't defend himself. He just gave Jiang Xuelin a wink—"I've sacrificed too much for you, you must remember this!"
Jiang Xuelin nodded slightly – I understand, I understand, this time I owe you.
Seeing the exchange between the two, Prince Ping misunderstood Fu Hanlai's words as a provocation and intimidation, and his hands became even more itchy.
He recalled his past experience of infuriating the Xuande Emperor to the point of jumping up and down.
Oh dear, is this his retribution?
"You dare to warn Lin'er?!"
Fu Hanlai: "..."
He pointed to himself with a shocked expression, then pointed to Jiang Xuelin.
—Father, where did you see me warning her?
Jiang Xuelin: "..."
Under the amused gaze of Princess Ping, she blushed and lowered her head.
My face really started burning up.
well.
