The husband I snatched halfway through his life is strange.

Chapter 415 She's more vicious than me!
A gentle breeze caressed the inner palace, which remained solemnly guarded.

Shen Jin preferred quiet, and the palace was relatively secluded.

After stepping into the back of the hall, Yu Tingwan frowned imperceptibly.

Under the bright sunlight and the interplay of light and shadow, the magnificent palace, with its carved beams and painted rafters and towering pillars, looked no different from any other place, but it was too empty.

But there were only these things, no potted plants, no greenery, just an empty shell.

It looked completely uninhabited, like an ice-bound cage that could imprison both body and soul, adding to its desolate chill and utter lack of warmth.

Someone was talking beside me.

"what's wrong with you?"

Yu Tingwan was baffled: "What did I do to you?"

Seeing her rosy complexion, radiant appearance, and skin so tender it seemed like you could pinch water out of it, with her eyes sparkling with spring-like joy.

She hasn't even put on makeup yet!
Shen Zhiyi felt very sour.

"How do you take care of your skin? What kind of cream or lotion do you usually buy for your face?"

This is beyond Yu Tingwan's knowledge.

"I didn't look carefully."

Fortunately, Shen Zhiyi didn't mind: "Tell me what kind of box it is in. I'll buy some to apply later."

She pays the most attention to the rouge and face powder used by girls; as long as she gives a general idea, she knows exactly what they are.

Yu Tingwan was bewildered.

Shen Zhi said irritably, "You use it every day, don't you know?"

That's a lot.

A whole bunch of bottles and jars, all brought to her by Wei Zhao from outside. She didn't have to put in any effort.

I apply a little whenever I remember, and if I forget, I'm too lazy to bother.

She didn't apply any today.

Yu Tingwan said softly, "I don't use them every day, so many of them are just collecting dust. I don't really care about these things, and it's quite wasteful, but I also find them troublesome."

It's really troublesome.

Some people were wiping their faces, some were wiping their hands, and some were wiping their bodies.

Face creams are divided into those applied first, those applied later, and those applied last.

She was in a hurry to eat breakfast when she got up in the morning and really didn't want to dawdle over this matter.

She has to deal with men again at night.

"Good guy."

Shen Zhiyi frowned deeply: "I thought you deliberately didn't tell me, afraid that I would look better than you."

Yu Tingwan: ?
Where does the confidence come from?

"I'm also worried that you might not be sharp enough, after all, the housekeeper's daily efforts are already wearing you down."

Yu Tingwan listened to her finish speaking.

She revealed a gentle smile.

"I didn't expect that."

She raised her hand to touch her face, denying that it was due to the moisturizing: "I'm naturally beautiful."

"So you're just too rough!"

At this point, Shen Zhiyi leaned closer.

Only then did they realize that Yu Tingwan hadn't applied any lip rouge.

Shen Zhiyi grabbed Yu Tingwan's hand again. Unlike her, whose fingertips were painted with bright and beautiful nail polish, the girl's nails were clean and had a natural light cherry pink color.

It's fortunate that she was born well; anyone else wouldn't have been able to afford such a life.

Yu Tingwan: ? ? ?

She was just born dissatisfied.

Shen Zhiyi felt that the girl's hands were too soft, so she couldn't help but squeeze them again and again, refusing to let go.

Yu Tingwan: ?
She felt something was off and jerked back: "Are you sick?"

Shen Zhiyi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. She considered herself to have an exceptionally good relationship with Yu Tingwan.

What's wrong with sisters sticking together and rubbing against each other?
Ke Yu Tingwan's reaction made her feel very uncomfortable.

"What's wrong with me touching you? It's not like I'm going to do anything to you. What could you possibly lose? Hasn't Wei Zhao touched you before? Oh, so he's allowed to touch you?"

So many touches.

Yu Tingwan couldn't bear to hear those words.

I almost didn't recognize the character anymore.

She said quietly, "Xiao Huaiyan has been blocking you so often that I thought you wouldn't dare to go out anytime soon."

Shen Zhiyi immediately became flustered, stubbornly refusing to admit it.

"Why should I avoid him?"

"Oh."

Yu Tingwan, unsure whether she believed it or not, asked gently, "Then does he have a chance?"

"What do you ask?"

Don't ask this on behalf of Xiao Huaiyan.

"It's nothing, we can laugh at him next time." That's more like it.

The next moment, Yu Tingwan said truthfully, "I just received a blood coral from him that's half a person tall, and it's quite expensive. He wants me to put in a good word for him."

???

"Being obligated to do something?"

Shen Zhiyi was heartbroken: "For some material things, you've sided with someone else?"

Yu Tingwan said gently, "How could that be? From the day you saw me, which ear of yours has heard me say anything nice?"

It seems... there really isn't one.

In fact, if she hadn't offended someone, Yu Tingwan probably wouldn't have mentioned Xiao Huaiyan at all.

Shen Zhiyi thought she was very smart, but she really didn't understand Yu Tingwan's actions.

So unreliable, you...

How could you have such a shameless attitude?

Yu Tingwan's innocent face.

Why are you embarrassed?

It was Xiao Huaiyan who brought it to her; she didn't insist on having it given to her.

Yu Tingwan's eyes were clear, and her tone was light: "Whether you two make it work or not is up to you."

“If you have your own ideas, no amount of praise will help you if you are unwilling. If you are willing, as long as the Empress Dowager is willing to support you, even your parents cannot stop you.”

Yu Tingwan: "Why should I get involved?"

"Then why are you still taking it?"

"Hesitating for even a moment is disrespectful to money."

Yu Tingwan saw someone coming this way from afar and, putting the inspiration she had received from Ying Fuyan into practice, whispered, "If it can sell for over a thousand taels, we'll split it in half."

Recently, her half-sister's marriage was called off, and Shen's father has started to dislike Shen Zhiyi again, cutting off her monthly allowance.

She's always been a big spender. She might not have much money, but she'll still buy things like crazy. She looks glamorous, but she actually lives a very frugal life.

She didn't hesitate.

"it is good!"

Yu Tingwan: ...

You're pretty shameless.

Shen Jin's return was not a large affair; she was only followed by a palace maid who brought the news.

Upon seeing her, Shen Zhiyi rushed over.

"aunt."

Shen Jin pushed the person away.

Shen Zhiyi lunged again.

Shen Jin continued to push.

Keep pouncing.

Forget it.

Shen Jin: "Have you gotten into trouble again, or are you out of money again?"

She said in a calm tone, "Should I call your father over and give him a talking-to? He really is outrageous."

This shows how much she loves him.

Shen Jin patted Shen Zhiyi's head, feeling that she had been wronged, and sighed.

The marriage proposal to the Hu family in Jiangnan was originally meant for Shen Zhiyi, but Shen's father was really something, he turned around and gave it to the son of his concubine.

However, the Hu family was willing to make the change, regardless of how much benefit Shen's father offered or whether the Hu family genuinely didn't want to marry Shen Zhiyi, who had been jilted and had a bad reputation.

The Hu family can't be considered a good family.

She wanted to say something, but her gaze fell on Yu Tingwan, who was standing quietly to the side.

The moment their eyes met, the girl smiled at her.

She bowed.

"Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine."

Shen Jin nodded.

Shen Zhiyi hurriedly introduced, "Aunt, she is the one I mentioned to you as someone I wish we had met sooner, a woman who is ruthless and doesn't talk much."

Yu Tingwan: ?

Shen Zhiyi: "She's more vicious than me!"

Yu Tingwan: ?
Shen Zhiyi: "I admire her very much!"

Yu Tingwan: ...

ill.

Shen Jin thought she was too noisy: "Ayi, Miss Yu and I have something to talk about."

Then say it.

She didn't stop her.

Shen Zhiyi was baffled.

Yu Tingwan smiled: "Don't you understand? I'm telling you to step down."
