Chapter Thirty-Seven: Clever but Unassuming



Upon hearing this, Wen Nongnong breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Lu Yingying with admiration. This sister-in-law was delicate in appearance, but she was very perceptive.

Without her guidance, she proved to be a great help at a crucial moment.

Although Madam Wen valued Wen Ruyi, she valued offspring even more.

Now that Lu Yingying is pregnant, it means that the Wen family line can continue, which is naturally more important than anything else in the old lady's eyes.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Madam Wen looked rather unwell. She said she was tired, so she took the hand of her maid and went back to her own courtyard.

"Sister-in-law, let me help you back to your room." At this moment, Wen Nongnong stepped forward and took Lu Yingying's arm.

Lu Yingying was somewhat flattered and stared at her blankly.

Wen Nong Nong winked at her.

Lu Yingying came to her senses, smiled, and then got up and followed her outside.

Seeing the harmonious scene between the sisters-in-law, Mrs. Xu was very pleased.

Wen Tingyun watched the two figures leave, lost in thought.

As they came out of the front hall, Wen Nongnong grasped Lu Yingying's hand and said sincerely, "Sister-in-law, thank you for what you just said."

"I didn't do anything," Lu Yingying said, looking bewildered.

Wen Nongnong smiled, a playful smirk on her lips, and said, "Now I finally understand why my older brother dotes on you so much?"

Lu Yingying blushed and lowered her head, saying, "W-what are you saying..."

Looking at the blush on her beautiful and gentle face, Wen Nongnong sighed inwardly, "This is what a true lady of a noble family should be like."

She is elegant in demeanor, gentle in nature, beautiful inside and out, intelligent, yet unassuming.

"What are you looking at?" Lu Yingying noticed her scrutinizing gaze and asked, somewhat puzzled.

Wen Nongnong blinked and said with a smile, "I just feel that my judgment was really bad before. I mistook a fish eye for a pearl, and a jackal for a sister! I stayed away from someone as good as my sister-in-law, but got close to someone like Wen Ruyi. Now, I finally know who the good people are and who the bad people are. My sister-in-law is very good, and I like her very much."

Lu Yingying was taken aback at first, then blushed and looked surprised, "Nongnong, you..."

"Just now in the front hall, I'm sure my sister-in-law has already guessed what happened. Wen Ruyi is nice to me on the surface, but she secretly plotted against me. Luckily, I was careful at the time, otherwise I wouldn't be standing here safely right now."

Wen Nongnong sighed and said, "But Grandmother is still biased towards her and protects her. Even at this time, she still wants to bring her back. Fortunately, my sister-in-law was there just now. Otherwise, if Grandmother had insisted on bringing Wen Ruyi back to the mansion, there would definitely have been trouble again."

Lu Yingying listened quietly, genuinely feeling that her sister-in-law had changed a lot.

The face is still the same, but the temperament is completely different.

To be frank, my sister-in-law used to be really unpleasant. She spoke and acted without thinking, which contrasted sharply with Wen Ruyi's personality, making her more likable and endearing.

She was a legitimate daughter, yet she was reduced to a mere foil for others.

She had long suspected that Wen Ruyi was not as simple as she appeared, but since her sister-in-law had never liked her, she didn't say much.

Right now, seeing that her sister-in-law is changing, she is honestly very happy.

However, if she hadn't witnessed her confrontation with her grandmother just now, she would have thought that what she was saying to her was an act, just to tease her.

And it seems that in the blink of an eye, the younger sister-in-law has grown up.

Her speech and actions are different from before, which makes people like her a bit.
