For Young Master Shen, he had never lost at the card table, so he didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said.
Unexpectedly, these words brought tears to his wife's eyes: "Honey, please save me, I'm dying, I'm dying~"
Her soft, coquettish manner made the women at the card table laugh, and they all tried to persuade her to stop.
"Oh dear, Xiao Yang, don't beg anymore. Your husband wouldn't even look at our little bit of money."
"That's right, my cousin would never get involved in this kind of woman's affairs."
The one who spoke with sarcasm was Shen Xiyu, the daughter of Shen Yu's third uncle.
Jing Weiyang doesn't like her. She's been being sarcastic and mocking her ever since, saying she can't even play mahjong and that her cousin doesn't know what he sees in her.
Jing Weiyang was so angry. If it weren't for maintaining her fairy-like image, she would have really gone up and slapped her twice to show her why the flowers were so red.
Then, the next moment, Shen Xiyu was proven wrong. She saw that her eldest cousin, who was usually so high and mighty in the family, actually condescended to sit in that woman's seat and started playing cards for her.
A true expert's skill is immediately apparent upon their first move.
Not long after, Jing Weiyang, who had a terrible hand, actually won.
"Honey, you're amazing!"
She generously contributed her acting skills, giving her all to portray a loving couple.
And Shen Yu actually won the game. When Madam Shen returned, the chips on the table were piled up high, and her noble and aloof son was dominating the game with a proud smile, looking just like a fearsome figure in the business world.
Her mahjong partners, on the other hand, were all ashen-faced and on the verge of tears.
Madam Shen: ? ? ?
Among them, the most resentful was Shen Xiyu. For the others, the benefit of playing cards with Young Master Shen and taking the opportunity to make their husbands and sons more prominent was insignificant compared to the small amount of money they lost.
They were experiencing both pain and joy.
But it wasn't the same for her; she lost all of her allowance!
She absolutely loathed that stupid woman who had brought this on!
That woman, in particular, would only gull like a lovesick fool, exclaiming, "Wow, we won again!" or "Honey, you're so amazing!" and still receive endless praise from everyone. This made her so angry she felt like vomiting blood.
This woman, surnamed Jing and named Weiyang, was truly the most detestable woman she had ever met!
With Madam Shen back, Shen Yu and his wife naturally stepped down.
Jing Weiyang wanted to take a stroll around Qingfeng Villa and walk along the mountain paths, and Shen Yu, having no objections, naturally took her there.
As soon as the two left, Shen Xiyu couldn't wait to start complaining:
"My sister-in-law is really inconsiderate. She rarely comes back, but she doesn't spend much time with my aunt. She just left like that."
She only mentioned Jing Weiyang because she knew that Madam Shen didn't like this daughter-in-law. As many times before, as long as Madam Shen didn't express her opinion, others would follow her lead and say what she wanted.
Shen Xiyu had a well-thought-out plan, but she never expected that Madam Shen, who had never spoken before, would speak up to defend her at this moment:
"I think it's great. As long as the young couple has a good relationship and can have children for our Shen family as soon as possible, that's better than anything else."
Shen Xiyu, being young, involuntarily revealed a flaw.
The others at the table, however, were astute enough to immediately notice Madam Shen's unusual attitude and began to flatter her:
"That's right, with Mr. Shen and his wife being so good-looking, wouldn't their child be a little fairy?"
Madam Shen smiled faintly but did not reply, while the others had already sensed the trend and began to fawn over her without hesitation.
