The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 334 Don't Forget to Deal with Her
Time flew by, and it was time for the full moon celebration at the Duke of Zhou's mansion.

Before leaving, Yu Tingwan made sure to greet Ning Suchan.

Ning Suchan was eating bird's nest when she saw her coming over, and she concealed her surprise.

"how?"

"I have nothing to tell you."

Even so, looking at the beautiful girl in front of her, she finally put down her soup spoon.

"Although the Duke of Zhou's family is the Empress's maternal family, our Duke of Shun's family is no less impressive. To speak frankly and without offense, this empire was won with the help of the Wei family's ancestors."

"Remember your identity when you're out and about. Your husband is Wei Zhao. Just that alone means you don't need to bow down to anyone, and no one will dare to embarrass you. Even if someone is truly ignorant, you don't need to give them a hard time."

"As the young mistress of the Duke of Shun's mansion, you should have this much confidence."

"Don't be afraid of trouble. Even if you cause a major disaster, as long as you are in the right, you will have people backing you up."

She spoke softly.

"Do you remember it?"

Yu Tingwan: ...

This is what Wei Zhao said when she first left Lan Garden.

—I don’t expect you to restrain yourself. Since you’re going out for a rare trip, have fun to your heart’s content.

It has to be said that this mother and son have a lot of confidence.

"Is your mother-in-law really not going? It would be good for us to keep each other company."

"Although it's just a girl, it's really a great honor for the Duke of Zhou's mansion for your mother to come to visit in person. But you haven't left the main courtyard for a long time, it's so cold and quiet, and you don't even have anyone to talk to. If this goes on for too long, you'll get sick. Consider it a good opportunity to go out and relax."

How lively it is! It's much better than staying indoors writing Buddhist scriptures.

"No need."

Ning Suchan had always disliked noise and found it too commotion: "Go ahead."

Seeing this, Yu Tingwan didn't try to persuade her any further. Chao Ning Su Chan curtsied and then hurried away.

Ning Suchan stared at her light and nimble figure, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.

"Mistress".

Like an old woman calling softly.

"Are you worried about the Crown Princess?"

Ning Suchan looked away.

"You're not at ease?"

"Don't let her seemingly nonsensical remarks fool you; when she's with me, she can be incredibly calm and composed."

"Such a person has a plan in mind and will not suffer losses no matter where they go."

She rarely praises people.

He wasn't particularly close to Yu Tingwan normally, but he had already acknowledged and affirmed her.

The Shen family residence of the Junior Imperial Household Supervisor.

Who wants to go?

Shen Zhiyi smashed the vase and threw a huge tantrum.

"That young mistress of the Duke of Zhou's mansion is surnamed Chu! She is Chu Liulang's own sister! Father, have you forgotten? That beast Chu Liulang broke off my engagement, making me the laughingstock of the entire capital! I find him disgusting to even look at, and now I'm supposed to go out of my way to congratulate his sister with a smile?"

Mr. Shen's face darkened: "Are you giving me attitude?"

He stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Shen Zhiyi with a disapproving gaze.

"That's the Duke's mansion! They're willing to come and send an invitation..."

The words have not yet fallen.

"What is it?"

"The Duke of Zhou's mansion feels ashamed to have the Chu family as in-laws."

"So you helped me clean up the mess, made me swallow my grievances, and chatted and laughed with those people, to show that there was no rift between us?"

Since the person in question doesn't care, there's less gossip going on.

Master Shen could only appeal to her emotions and reason: "Your sister-in-law is heavily pregnant and it is inconvenient for her to show up. Your mother caught a cold yesterday. As the eldest daughter of the Shen family, if you don't show up, are you going to send your half-sister?"

Shen Zhiyi sneered, as if all the foreshadowing beforehand was just waiting for this sentence.

"It's quite strange, Father. He knew that there was a difference between legitimate and illegitimate children, and that illegitimate daughters were not fit to be respected."

"The marriage between my daughter and Chu Liulang was arranged in a hurry. Because I was imprisoned and made a fool of myself back then, my father was afraid of offending the Wei family, so he agreed without considering my wishes."

“Father is not just my father. It is only right that you treat your younger sisters well. But why are you bypassing me and going to such lengths to find a husband for my third sister?”

She's not engaged yet!

Shen Zhi was in a bad mood and looked at her father.

"Is Mother's headache really just a flu? I'm afraid not." "It's probably because she was arguing with you, Father, about my marriage."

Mr. Shen's expression was somewhat unnatural.

"What nonsense are you talking about?"

Shen Zhiyi didn't care about all that and continued, "The Hu family in Jiangnan isn't exactly prominent, and Father has been kind to Hu's son, so the two families know each other well. But it was supposed to be for me? I've been rejected in marriage before and have a bad reputation, so I could only choose a lower-status match. But my aunt whispered in my ear, and Father, you're too easily swayed, so you gave it to my half-sister instead."

"you!"

Mr. Shen looked embarrassed.

"I'll find you a better one."

"Goodbye."

Shen Zhiyi: "My aunt has a concubine's daughter, how could it be my turn?"

“My mother is easy to talk to, but she keeps everything to herself. My maternal grandparents’ family is far away in Jizhou, so my mother never complains. As a result, she has no one to stand up for her, and she has suffered for half her life. As the mistress of the house, she has to tolerate a concubine in every way.”

“But my daughter can’t bear it. Other things are fine, but Jiangnan is too far away. No matter how good the men from the lake are, my daughter will not be interested in them. She will never marry far away, lest her mother be left without anyone to protect her and be devoured without a trace.”

What is this nonsense?

Do they really think the Shen family is a den of wolves?
Although Mr. Shen has a good temper and indulges Shen Zhiyi, he is not immune to anger.

"As expected, your aunt was right, I have spoiled you!"

He raised his hand, ready to strike.

But he couldn't bring himself to do it, and his hand remained frozen in mid-air.

Shen Zhiyi seemed to have expected this, and didn't care at all.

“My eldest sister married well; she even gave birth to a son for her husband’s family the year before last. Although my brother isn’t very capable, he has a good father-in-law. As long as we siblings are around, Father will never be able to get those half-sisters adopted by Mother.”

They stole her marriage and now they're eyeing her mother; they want to climb the social ladder by relying on them. Want to be the legitimate daughter? In your next life!

She wanted to see if the Hu family would be willing to accept a concubine's daughter.

Master Shen: "They're all family, you..."

Shen Zhiyi didn't even want to listen: "Daughter is leaving now."

Mr. Shen: ...

Forget it.

Go ahead.

The banquet at the Duke's mansion is the priority; other matters can be discussed later.

Shen Zhiyi was unwilling, but she knew she had no choice but to go to the Duke of Zhou's mansion.

She is very annoying.

But as soon as Shen Zhiyi stepped out, she saw the carriage of the Duke of Shunguo's mansion parked outside.

She paused for a moment, then quickly walked down the steps.

At that moment, Yu Tingwan gently lifted the curtain.

"I will take Miss Shen with me."

Shen Zhiyi asked suspiciously, "You... are you really that kind?"

Yu Tingwan did indeed want to get happiness from her!

“It’s not on the way. It would be a long detour to come pick you up and then go to the Duke of Zhou’s mansion.”

But if she doesn't come to pick her up, Shen Zhiyi thinks something bad has happened.

As she prepared to leave, the images flashed before her eyes again.

Shen Zhiyi was hit by a horse that was running amok and startled on her way there, and she was thrown into the air.

Could something have happened to Shen Zhiyi?
She had an accident and was absent. The excitement is definitely diminished!
Yu Tingwan would never say these things to her.

Even if I told you, probably no one would believe me.

She spoke gently and sincerely, saying, "But I'm willing to pick you up."

Shen Zhiyi believed it!
She originally wanted to befriend Yu Tingwan, so she got into the carriage without saying a word.

As soon as she arrived, she sat down next to Yu Tingwan.

Just sat down.

Yu Tingwan looked at her face and asked, "Why are you so angry and irritable?"

"Don't even mention it, my concubines and half-sisters at home deserve to be disciplined."

Shen Zhiyi: "To be honest, right now I want to spit on anyone I see and slap them."

Upon hearing this, Yu Tingwan put on an innocent face and said, "Just now I saw Zhou Yurou from the Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Works also going that way."

Shen Zhiyi was indeed short-tempered.

"Don't mention that bitch!"

Yu Tingwan gently reminded him, "Then don't forget, if you get the chance later, you must teach her a lesson."
