Lin Jing didn't say anything else, but the meaning in her eyes was very clear.
Seeing this, the people around came forward to persuade Mrs. Pei.
"Mrs. Pei, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has always been the most difficult. Mrs. Pei likes Miss Chen, and Miss Chen and Mr. Pei are childhood sweethearts. This is so rare. Please don't worry about it!"
"Yes, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Nowadays, everyone emphasizes freedom of marriage. Your children may not care about your considerations, and in the end, they may even be resented. It's better to let them make their own choices!"
"Yeah, now that we're older, we should just enjoy life and wait for our grandchildren!"
Lin Jing was secretly proud in her heart. She deliberately let people around her hear her talking. Her purpose was this: as long as she pretended to be the weaker party, there would always be someone willing to speak up for her.
Mrs. Pei's gaze became even colder.
Lin Jing pretended not to see it. She was determined to marry into the Shen family, otherwise she would be trampled under Pei Yaozhou's feet for the rest of her life.
Mrs. Shen will die sooner or later, and the Shen family will fall into the hands of Shen Qin and Sun Zheng sooner or later. She doesn't believe that with Shen Qin and Sun Zheng's doting on Shen Suyun, they will not help her son.
Mrs. Pei exhaled and nodded: "Okay, Lin Jing, remember what you just said, don't regret it later."
Lin Jing also softened her attitude: "Mom, don't worry, Su Yun is a good child. You like girls, right? I'll have them get married and give birth to a great-granddaughter for you. The first one she gives birth to will be yours to hold!"
Old Mrs. Pei didn't say anything, but picked up the teacup and took a sip.
Lin Jing tasted the sweetness just now and continued to speak loudly to the people around her.
"Su Yun is the daughter of the Shen family, after all. Marrying into the Pei family is a good match. Mom, I'm not overthinking it, but Qiao Ruoxi is just an orphan. How can she be worthy of the Third Master? Does she have any other purpose by approaching the Pei family?"
Mrs. Pei's mouth twitched. "Just now you were talking about meeting Ruoxi for the first time, and now you've already checked her identity. It seems you're quite concerned about the third brother's private life."
Lin Jing choked and looked at the inquiring eyes cast at her by the people around her, not daring to say anything.

On the other side, Pei Yaozhou took the cake and drinks and placed them on the small table in front of Qiao Ruoxi: "What are you thinking about?"
"I was wondering what kind of person your sister-in-law is." Qiao Ruoxi took the drink and took a sip.
She looked at Pei Yaori who was squatting in the corner. Ever since Lin Jing appeared, the talkative Pei Yaori suddenly became silent.
"Does she have a good relationship with your brother?" Qiao Ruoxi asked curiously.
Pei Yaozhou was silent for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know. I used to think they loved each other very much, but... their relationship seems to be much more complicated than I thought."
Qiao Ruoxi curled her lips, she didn't understand either.
In her previous life, she became the Queen Mother as soon as she entered the palace and had no chance to understand what love was.
However, being able to make a talkative person become silent should be quite powerful, at least it has a long-lasting effect.
She thought it was better for her not to know.
Pei Yaozhou cleared his throat: "Ruoxi, there is something I must apologize to you for."
Qiao Ruoxi looked at Pei Yaozhou.
Pei Yaozhou coughed lightly against his lips and said, "I didn't know so many media reporters would come today. The fact that you are Mrs. Pei has become a hot topic. This may cause trouble for your future life."
Qiao Ruoxi was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I understand."
Pei Yaozhou was both surprised and secretly delighted: "You, don't blame me? Or, you..."
Qiao Ruoxi scooped a piece of cake into her mouth and said, "Now that it has happened, there is no point in blaming anyone. Let's think about how to solve it."
The little flame in Pei Yaozhou's heart gradually went out.
"I violated the agreement. You can ask me for compensation, money or equity, or just make it real..."
Suddenly there was a noise at the door, interrupting Pei Yaozhou's remaining words.
Qiao Ruoxi and Pei Yaozhou looked up at the same time.
Under the flash of lights, the six people from the Shen family were welcomed in like superstars.
And Shen Suyun was surrounded by the three sons of the Shen family. Like a princess, she walked in from the door wearing high heels and holding her neck high.
Qiao Ruoxi propped up her chin and chuckled, "Third Master, can you tell that there's something wrong with Shen Suyun's face?"
Hearing this, Pei Yaozhou reluctantly looked up at Shen Suyun and snorted coldly: "Too ugly."
Qiao Ruoxi burst out laughing, then slowly said, "This morning, the girl who did my skincare told me something very interesting..."
Pei Yaozhou listened to the whole story, and instantly a raging rage ignited in his eyes: "If she dares to lay a hand on you, I will make sure she never leaves this door!"
"I'll let Ajie bring people to protect you closely, and leave the rest to me." Pei Yaozhou said as he was about to leave to call for help, but was stopped by Qiao Ruoxi.
"Before coming here, I had already told my fortune. Today I am in conflict with metal and water. I have probably guessed what she is going to do to me. We might as well wait and see. If we alert the enemy, we may miss a good show." Qiao Ruoxi looked at the drink at hand and slowly took a sip.
Pei Yaozhou hesitated several times before finally nodding: "Okay, if you need my help, feel free to ask."
Qiao Ruoxi smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Mr. Pei San."
Shen Suyun was very satisfied with the reporters she invited, and she enjoyed the feeling of being in the spotlight.
She thought about it and decided to become a star after graduation. With her second brother as a gold medal agent, her third brother as a nationally popular young star, and her eldest brother's financial support, is she still worried that she won't be able to become famous?
