Chapter 17: He's here to support her?
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xie Huaiyun dressed in red, with handsome features and a chilling look in his eyes.
Although the corners of his lips were slightly upturned, they exuded coldness, as if they could freeze a person.
It is clear.
This is displeasure.
Marquis Shunyang immediately stood up: "My son-in-law has arrived? Please take a seat! Rou'er said you were ill, and I thought you weren't coming."
Xie Huaiyun is a rising star of the new generation, highly capable, and has a decent reputation in Beijing.
Such a virtuous son-in-law will surely rise to prominence in the future, far surpassing the success of his declining noble family. He must treat him well.
After all, his lineage has no roots, and he can only rely on his grandson in the future.
As long as Su Zhirou gives birth to the eldest son, the position of heir apparent will be his.
He can benefit from it in the future.
Su Yingxue was slightly taken aback when she met Xie Huaiyun's slightly amused gaze.
What's this guy doing here?
Could it be that he's being used as a foil for Su Zhirou?
Afraid that Su Zhirou might be wronged?
Thinking of this possibility, Su Yingxue felt a pang of bitterness in her heart and raised her hand to slap Su Zhirou's face again.
"Snapped!"
Su Zhirou, who had been putting on a pitiful look, almost lost her composure after being slapped.
She stared in disbelief at Su Yingxue, who still had that same obnoxious, slutty look.
"Your Highness, look at her..." Su Zhirou's voice was filled with grievance.
It took dozens of turns in a row.
"Miss, it's one thing for you to treat my Rou'er this way all the time, but now that the young master has arrived, why don't you restrain yourself? Rou'er is the young master's consort..." Aunt Feng spoke first.
Marquis Shunyang was taken aback by Su Yingxue's audacity, and his face instantly darkened: "You rebellious daughter! Apologize to Rou'er at once!"
Now that Su Yingxue is hitting the Crown Prince's wife in front of the Crown Prince, how is that any different from hitting the Crown Prince's face?
He did want to teach her a lesson, but his family also had to save face.
He will definitely take action in private!
We mustn't let the Crown Prince see us and make a fool of himself.
"I hit her, so be it. I don't usually hit her, but since Aunt Feng has made this request, I'll reward her every time I see her in the future." Su Yingxue rubbed her slightly stiff wrist, and what she said was infuriating.
Aunt Feng's eyes reddened with anger: "You!"
"Your Highness, please don't take offense. My sister has always been like this. Rou'er has gotten used to it over the years. Please don't blame my sister..." Su Zhirou covered her face, looking understanding.
Aunt Feng said anxiously, "Silly child, she hit you like that, and you still defend her? You're too kind-hearted. Kindness should be directed towards the right person; you can't be blindly kind!"
She's suffered a loss now, and Aunt Feng is extremely upset.
Normally, they are the ones who control the entire Marquis's mansion.
Although Su Yingxue was arrogant and domineering, she never laid a hand on them.
She had indeed framed Su Yingxue several times before.
But that was all in the past.
Even Su Yingxue's reputation was spread by her.
Who would have thought that this bitch would be so barbaric, actually slapping the mother and daughter directly.
In just a short while, he received quite a few slaps.
I can't even imagine how much suffering my daughter endured at the Duke's mansion.
"Yes, Rou'er, you've been sensible since you were little. Now that the Crown Prince is your husband, he will surely stand up for you. Don't suffer any injustice." Marquis Shunyang looked at Su Zhirou with a gentle expression.
This is completely different from how he treated Su Yingxue.
Upon hearing this, Su Zhirou looked expectantly at Xie Huaiyun beside her.
Xie Huaiyun smiled knowingly: "Father-in-law seems to have forgotten that I am a son-in-law who inherits two families. Naturally, whichever one I favor will be my principal wife."
After saying that, he reached out and put his arm around Su Yingxue's slender waist. His deep eyes were full of smiles as he met Su Yingxue's slightly surprised eyes. His voice was gentle: "Now, the one I love most is Yingxue. As for Su Zhirou, she is just an ornament."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhirou's face instantly turned pale: "Your Highness, what do you mean? I am your lawfully wedded wife. You saw my sister hitting me and you didn't even react?"
She never imagined that now that she had entered the door, Xie Huaiyun would still treat her this way.
Wasn't this just acting?
Even in the Duke's mansion, Xie Huaiyun didn't seem to like this bitch much!
How come you're saying you dote on her the most now?
Where exactly did things go wrong?
"Yingxue just has a bit of a temper, and you, as her younger sister, don't know how to be accommodating, instead you're making her angry. What kind of logic is that?"
His cold eyes swept over Su Zhirou, his voice low and menacing: "Your mother entrusted you with the management of the household not so that you could compete with your elder sister, but so that you could oversee the entire Duke's mansion. If you lack even this basic understanding, then hand over the key to the token."
Upon hearing this, Su Zhirou immediately admitted defeat, "Husband, I was wrong. I will definitely give way to my sister in the future."
Although he felt resentful, holding the house key was a symbol of being the head of the household.
How could she hand over the things?
Aunt Feng looked unwell, while Madam Qian breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the affection between the two.
She had thought her daughter was having a bad time in the Duke's mansion, but now she saw that this son-in-law really liked her.
With that in mind, she was relieved.
So what if one has two sons? It's just a matter of title.
Just as Xie Huaiyun said, whoever he favors becomes his official wife.
"My dear son-in-law, please take a seat."
Marquis Shunyang's expression was also not good, but he still managed to control the situation for the sake of his reputation.
After all, how could he, as a father, interfere in matters concerning the inner court?
He can spoil whomever he wants.
His daughters were on either side of him.
After everyone took their seats, Xie Huaiyun pulled Su Yingxue to sit next to her.
Su Zhirou originally wanted to sit on the other side of Xie Huaiyun, but Qian Shi stopped her: "Zhirou, you should sit back next to your stepmother. You haven't been back to your parents' home for a long time. If you change seats, your stepmother will be sad."
After saying that, without waiting for her to speak, he sat down on the other side of Xie Huaiyun.
Upon hearing this, Su Zhirou had no choice but to return to her original seat.
At this moment, the harmony between the three of them had vanished, while the three people opposite them seemed to be enjoying a pleasant atmosphere.
"Xiaoxue, this is your favorite dish. Eat more, you've lost weight," Xie Huaiyun said, putting food on Su Yingxue's plate.
Su Yingxue was slightly surprised.
Of all the dishes on the table, only one was her favorite, yet he managed to pick it up precisely; he must have put in the effort.
She smiled slightly. "Thank you, my husband."
The man's tall frame stiffened, then he became even more attentive.
Rong Jing watched his master's pathetic state and silently covered his eyes.
It's unbearable to look at.
When people look for you, you avoid them; but when they stop looking, you suddenly come crawling back to them.
"I heard that my son-in-law is unwell and should not be exposed to the wind. Why don't you rest at home?" Marquis Shunyang glanced at Su Yingxue and said, "I have spoiled my daughter. I heard that my son-in-law's serious illness is all because of my daughter."
This enormous accusation was slapped on his head in an instant.
and many more.
When did he start pampering himself?
Su Yingxue glanced at Marquis Shunyang and found that he was truly shameless, not even blushing.
He merely glanced at her coldly, his voice indifferent: "My illness was indeed caused by Su Zhirou. I know in my heart that if it weren't for Yingxue taking care of me personally, I would probably still be unable to get out of bed."
