The Sickly Scion’s Petite Wife Is Sweet And Cool
Chapter 468 - 468 Freeloading (1)468 Freeloading (1)
Before meeting Song Jingchen, An Xiu’er had never known that there was such a good-looking man in the world. However, that good-looking man was prickly, and his gentleness was only given to Shen Yijia.
She was indignant. Why? She thought that she wasn’t bad-looking either. Compared to Shen Yijia, who had brute force but didn’t know anything, she felt that she was much better. However, Song Jingchen seemed to be blind and couldn’t see how good she was.
She swore to find someone better than Song Jingchen.
Unexpectedly, her opportunity came so quickly that she met another man.
His appearance was not inferior to Song Jingchen’s. He was gentle and polite, unlike Song Jingchen who was unreasonable.
More importantly, that man had a noble status. He satisfied all her fantasies about her other half.
The man asked her to supervise the Song family, and she did as he asked. Even if she didn’t do a good job, he didn’t blame her.
How could there be such a good person in the world? she thought. She could do anything for him.
“Madam, what’s wrong?” Hong Yu asked worriedly.
An Xiu’er came back to her senses and folded the clothes in her hand before putting them back. “Throw them away.”
In the past, she envied Shen Yijia for being able to wear fine cotton, but now, she no longer looked up to such clothes.
She opened the letter in her bag. It was filled with concern for her.
Hong Yu paused for a moment. Wasn’t this made by the madam’s mother? Then, she understood that even maidservants like her disdained to wear such fabric in the prince’s residence.
She picked up the package and prepared to leave.
“Wait.” An Xiu’er suddenly called out to her and opened her mouth. “Let’s put it away first.”
Hong Yu turned into the cubicle. It was specially used to store clothes for An Xiu’er.
At this moment, a maidservant came in with a pot of bird’s nest. “Madam, this is the bird’s nest you said you wanted to eat yesterday. I bought it from the kitchen today and stewed it for you.”
An Xiu’er picked up the porcelain cup and quietly took out the note under it and hid it in her sleeve. “Go and get the reward from Hong Yu.”
“Thank you, Madam.”
Liu Piaopiao, who lived in the guest courtyard, also heard that Shen Yijia had come to Lord Jing’s residence.
Although she lived in Lord Jing’s residence, she usually did not interact with the women in the residence. Apart from knowing that the princess consort was Shen Yijia’s biological sister, she did not expect Concubine An to know her.
When the female corpse of the Wutong River was discovered, Lord Jing had always suspected that a spy beside him had leaked the news. However, apart from his own trusted aides, only she, an outsider, had participated in this matter some time ago. Naturally, she became Shangguan Pu’s first suspect.
“Could it be Concubine An?” Liu Piaopiao muttered.
The boy was originally practicing calligraphy at the side. When he heard this, he looked up and asked, “What’s wrong with Madam An?”
Liu Piaopiao shook her head. “Nothing.”
After some thought, she said, “The princess consort’s management rights have just been taken over by your father. She must be in a bad mood. Apart from paying your respects, try your best to avoid her for the next few days.”
Shen Ruyun was not just in a bad mood. She was so angry that her face turned red. This morning, the main courtyard even called the doctor to protect the baby.
“Why?” The boy was a little unhappy. As the eldest grandson of the emperor, did he not even have the freedom to go anywhere in this residence?
If this was the case now, when that woman gave birth to a son in the future, would he still have a place to stay?
Liu Piaopiao rubbed his head and explained, “Because she doesn’t like you. She’ll only get angrier when she sees you. Besides, it’s not good for the fetus to be angry. If anything happens to the fetus in her stomach, it won’t be good if she maligns you.”
The boy pursed his lips and lowered his eyes without saying anything.
Shen Yijia was very regretful. She originally wanted to take advantage of the excuse of sending something to An Xiu’er to trample on Lord Jing’s residence. Unexpectedly, when she came out, she heard a few maidservants talking about the princess consort’s fetus.
Since she was pregnant, she couldn’t hit her.
“Forget it. She has to give birth to the child.”
After the carriage left Vermilion Bird Avenue, Shen Yijia thought of the ice box in Xuanyuan’s carriage and asked Bruiser to rush the carriage to the copper shop to customize two ice boxes.
She had already thought it through. One would be placed in her beautiful husband’s carriage, and the other would be placed at home with iced fruits.
Shen Yijia was rich now. She wanted to buy everything she saw. After leaving the copper shop, she brought Bruiser around Chang’an Avenue. Ever since she came to the capital, she had not bought anything for a long time.
Seeing Shen Yijia casually give him a banknote worth 100 taels of silver, Bruiser almost knelt down to her. How much did his sister steal from the Shen family yesterday?
