The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 358 She has plenty of strength and means!
"Didn't the General's wife notice when the daughter of the Junior Supervisor of the Imperial Household Department paid her respects just now?"

Yu Tingwan replied matter-of-factly, "That's an interesting remark. My mind isn't on her anyway."

Seeing the palace maid's face grow increasingly grim, Yu Tingwan lost her patience and preemptively asked, "What's wrong with you, palace maid?"

"It's one thing for me to be ignorant, but you serve the princess, are you also ignorant?"

She spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Everyone in the capital knows that I, Yu Tingwan, am a country bumpkin who is ignorant and lacks manners. My mother-in-law has been worried sick about me these past few days."

"This morning His Majesty sent the imperial physician over. Oh, and the Fifth Prince also came. Before he left, he specifically instructed his wife to prioritize her husband's health and put everything else aside."

"If I have done anything wrong, please forgive me, Your Highness, and don't hold it against a coarse woman like me. But I kept saying I forgot, which shows how difficult it was for me. Why don't you, a palace maid, teach me?"

"You've taught me, and I've learned it; isn't that enough to pay my respects?"

"Forget about paying respects, even if I were to jump out of the window today, I would be disrespectful to the princess if I hesitated for even a moment."

“But you are so aggressive, relying on the princess’s power. Anyone who doesn’t know better would think that I have neglected the princess, or that the princess came out of the palace specifically to make things difficult for me, a mere palace maid.”

Yu Tingwan paused as she spoke.

She looked at Ying Changyi, her anger mixed with respect and concern.

"Princess, would you like me to teach this troublesome palace maid a lesson?"

"The moment I saw her face, I knew that this maid had ill intentions."

What a liar and incoherent mouth!

Ying Changyi wanted to scold her.

The palace maid was her confidante; if she didn't reprimand or stop her, it meant that it was her intention.

Can……

Yu Tingwan came from the countryside; he had long hair but little brains. Judging from his expression, he probably really didn't understand.

Ying Changyi couldn't dwell on this point.

She only wanted to embarrass and intimidate him, but she dared not clash with Yu Tingwan, who had too much powerful backing.

Besides... the Fifth Prince has already gone to the Wei family?
Ying Changyi's face appeared slightly stiff.

The Crown Prince has already offended both the Duke of Shun's mansion and the Grand Tutor's mansion; if...

Thinking of this, she turned and scolded him.

"Shut up! I haven't said a word, and now you're jumping out! Get out of here!"

The palace maid quickly stepped back, saying, "This servant deserves to die; this servant was too talkative."

Seeing this, Yu Tingwan quickly said gently, "You should have known you deserved to die. Don't do it again next time."

She is really kind.

“Your Highness, you are a compassionate person. Please forgive her for pleading on her behalf.”

Shen Zhiyi: ...

learned.

You can make black seem white!

It really does look like the real thing!

Ying Changyi felt a lump in her throat, and her smile almost crumbled.

She looked coldly at the maid: "Aren't you going to thank me?"

Ying Changyi added, "It's not easy for me to leave the palace, so there's no need to worry about formalities when I'm out."

Yu Tingwan breathed a sigh of relief: "Your Highness, you were already infamous before you came to the capital. People gossiped that you often did inhuman things. When you came in just now, I was really flustered."

She patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, the princess didn't come to cause trouble."

"The princess is quite reasonable."

Ying Changyi: ?

I am provoking trouble!

You're so stupid, can't you see that?!
Unable to reprimand Yu Tingwan, she was already seething with anger. Upon hearing this, her eyes darkened, and she slammed her hand on the table: "Insolence! Which commoner dares to speak of me like this!"

Yu Tingwan's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly, but the tea did not spill.

Oh, not enough force.

Yu Tingwan applied a little more force, causing a lot of tea to splash out. She loosened her grip, and the teacup fell to the ground.

It fell onto the table with a thud.

It rolled several times.

Yu Tingwan couldn't care less about anything else and quickly covered the back of her hand that had been splashed with tea with a handkerchief.

"hiss."

Tan Jiang thought something had happened and rushed over.

"lady."

Could the water in the teacup be poisoned?
But she clearly checked, and it wasn't there!

Tan Jiang thought she deserved to die!
It must have been her oversight!
Yu Tingwan winced in pain: "I've been burned."

Tan Jiang froze. Shen Zhiyi: ...

But what you drank... was herbal tea!
Yu Tingwan: "I'm really useless."

He wanted to pour tea for the princess, but he couldn't hold it properly.

She spoke in a coy and timid tone, mimicking Zhou Yurou's words from not long ago: "Absolutely not, I was frightened by Your Highness."

Ying Changyi's face turned ashen.

Just then, laughter came from outside the door.

Xiao Huaiyan pushed Wei Zhao in: "Are all the people of the Great Jin talking about you like this in private, Princess? Doesn't the Princess know that?"

Xiao Huaiyan: "Your reputation, I'm not saying this, is really terrible."

"Instead of reflecting on your own actions, how dare you frighten the young mistress of the Duke of Shun's mansion?"

Wei Zhao remained silent, his eyes fixed on Ying Changyi.

The Ninth Princess was furious, but when she met his eyes, she inexplicably broke out in a cold sweat. She had suffered too many losses at Wei Zhao's hands.

Her fingers trembled. Now that the Crown Prince's power was waning, she could only angrily leave.

"Princess, Princess, where are you going?"

Yu Tingwan feigned concern and chased after him, asking, "Aren't you going to listen to the music anymore?"

"Could it be that I have said something wrong again? Or..."

The Ninth Princess would never admit that she was angry out of embarrassment.

She did not leave the teahouse.

Because I didn't want others to laugh at me.

"There are too many people, I find it too crowded."

She gritted her teeth, turned around, and went into the next room.

With a bang, the door was kicked open again.

A moment later, the young master who had been listening to the music inside humbly gave up his private room.

Yu Tingwan stood at the door.

Shen Zhiyi greeted her, "Aren't you coming in?"

"Look at them."

"What happened to them?"

Yu Tingwan sighed, "I can tell good from bad."

Xiao Huaiyan pushed Wei Zhao inside and then ignored him, sitting down next to Shen Zhiyi.

Before he could even speak, Yu Tingwan sat down next to Wei Zhao again, her gaze falling on Xiao Huaiyan.

Xiao Huaiyan noticed her gaze.

"Sister-in-law, what's wrong?"

Yu Tingwan: "Let me see you too."

As she spoke, she said lightly, "Let's see if what Shen Zhiyi just said is right or wrong."

"What did she say?"

"Nothing much?"

The real troublemaker, Yu Tingwan, said: "I'm just saying that the young man singing opera downstairs is more handsome than you."

Shen Zhiyi: ?
She meant they were evenly matched.

Xiao Huaiyan laughed in exasperation.

He had noticed him downstairs; the young man had makeup on his face and didn't look like a respectable person.

"Shen Zhiyi, what kind of look is that?"

Shen Zhiyi, hearing his tone, was indignant. She immediately retorted, "Yes, that's what I said. So what?"

"That young man downstairs is really good."

“There was a girl who took a fancy to him before and insisted on forcibly taking him away. She tried to snatch him halfway and drag him back to have a wedding ceremony.”

Yu Tingwan listened with great interest: "Did you succeed?"

"No, I would rather die than comply."

Shen Zhiyi: "It's clear that even outstanding men need to protect themselves when they're out and about. However, Prince Xiao certainly doesn't have this problem."

Xiao Huaiyan wanted to say it was absurd.

Wei Zhao said listlessly, "I'm familiar with this matter."

The boomerang ultimately struck itself.

But Yu Tingwan was triumphant after succeeding!

Yes! She has plenty of strength and resources!

There's a sentence in number 356 that was later modified.
Those who saw it early can take a look.

Yu Tingwan is harmlessly flamboyant, facing challenges head-on, growing up stumbling and falling, yet never compromising. Like a bamboo shoot breaking through the soil, she is unafraid of pressure, drawing nourishment from trials to become a unique and irreplaceable bamboo, standing tall and graceful, displaying her own splendor. Gentle as a breeze, yet capable of stirring up storms with a light touch.
