Chapter 358: Aunt 2 in Charge



Chapter 358: Aunt 2 in Charge

The news that Concubine Xi was not favored on her first day of serving the emperor soon spread outside the palace.

When Uncle and Aunt Shen heard the news, they were overjoyed.

Second Aunt: "Jiang Sujin thinks her relatives are very nice, but the emperor just doesn't like them."

Second Uncle: "Really? Do you really think the emperor will give her face? After all, the emperor still values ​​the Shen family more."

Second Aunt: "Let's just wait. The Emperor will soon favor our Qingqing. When the time comes, he will definitely give our Qingqing a higher position."

Second Uncle: "As long as our Qingqing's position in the harem becomes higher and higher, will we still worry about our son not being able to make a name for himself in the future?"

"If we can achieve the throne, no one will be able to compare to us in the future."

Second Aunt: "Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west. It's time for us to hold our heads high and be proud of ourselves."

Second Uncle: "Based on our Qingqing's background, who can compare to her?"

Second Aunt: "You still have to go talk to Yanfeng and ask him to say a few good words for us in front of the emperor."

Hearing this, the second uncle couldn't help but frown and said, "Alas, Yanfeng has become a bad boy now. He and his woman will die together."

Second Aunt: "Don't worry about his attitude. You still have to give him some advice when you need to."

"After all, our Shen family relies on him, so we have to curry favor with him now."

Second Uncle: "Okay, I'll talk to Yanfeng alone tomorrow."

Second Aunt: "Yes, let's talk alone."

As soon as Jiang Sujin got up in the morning, she heard the servants whispering outside.

"I heard that the princess's cousin slept with the emperor, but the emperor didn't touch her at all."

"Oh, really? Why?"

"Who knows? I don't know what the emperor thinks."

"She's either not good-looking or she has some flaw. Otherwise, how could I not touch her?"

"I heard that the princess's cousin was already eighteen years old when she entered the palace. She has not married yet at such an age. She must have some hidden illness."

"Yes, that must be the case. The princess even went to great lengths to find a backdoor for this cousin, but it seems like all her efforts were in vain."

"Isn't it? The queen will be unhappy this time."

When Shen Yanfeng woke up in a daze, he saw and heard the discussions outside the door.

He blinked hard and saw that Jiang Sujin was awake.

"This bunch of dogs and slaves, I will stand up and scold them."

Jiang Sujin: "Oh, that's not a big deal, besides, they didn't say anything."

Shen Yanfeng leaned close to her, hugged her waist and said, "You're not really angry, are you?"

Jiang Sujin said indifferently, "I don't believe that the emperor doesn't like Li Ranxi, and one night can't prove anything."

Shen Yanfeng: "Why are you so sure?"

Jiang Sujin glanced at him, and then said directly: "You didn't see how the emperor looked when he saw Li Ranxi."

"Tsk tsk tsk, his eyeballs are about to fall to the ground. If he doesn't like Li Ranxi, I won't be named Jiang."

Shen Yanfeng: "But two people slept in the same bed, but nothing happened all night. Isn't that a bit abnormal?"

Jiang Sujin: "What if the emperor is kind to women?"

Shen Yanfeng: "He is the emperor, and the emperor has no sympathy for women."

Jiang Sujin glanced at him and said, "You don't have any sympathy for women, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng's expression suddenly became unnatural: "Why don't I have any sympathy for women?"

Jiang Sujin: "I clearly remember how beastly you were on the first night!"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yanfeng immediately cleared his throat with an unnatural expression: "Who made you so beautiful? Otherwise, I wouldn't be so unable to control myself."

Jiang Sujin: "That's not an excuse for you not to be gentle with women."

Shen Yanfeng glanced at Jiang Sujin, then suddenly turned over and pressed her down.

"Okay, I was wrong. I apologize to you. I'm sorry, okay?"

Jiang Sujin pouted and gave him a blank look, then reached out and pinched his face.

"Hurry up and get up. What time is it?"

Shen Yanfeng rested his head against hers, rubbed her nose and said, "It's still early, let's lie down for a while."

Jiang Sujin: "No, my waist is sore from lying down."

Shen Yanfeng: "Then I will get up and walk with you to the garden, okay?"

Jiang Sujin: “Yeah!”

Shen Yanfeng bent down and kissed her a few times, then reluctantly sat up.

The two of them went for a walk in the garden together. Their loving appearance made the servants envious.

When the two returned to their yard, their second uncle suddenly appeared and called Shen Yanfeng away.

Jiang Sujin knew what her second uncle was planning without asking.

Jiang Sujin went to the third aunt's courtyard. The third aunt was still as charming as ever, with no signs of aging at all.

Although the Third Aunt is now considered Shen Changfeng's second wife, she has no say in the Shen family because she has no son.

Nowadays, the Shen family is basically run by the second wife. Since the second wife has two sons, she feels more confident, so she is very confident in the Shen family.

Now that his daughter has entered the palace, he naturally becomes more assertive in the Shen Mansion.

Jiang Sujin felt very uncomfortable listening to Third Aunt talking about these things.

But she was not at the Shen Mansion most of the time, and she did not care about the Shen Mansion's assets, so it did not matter to her.

But when she heard what Third Aunt said about how Second Aunt usually deducted her monthly allowance, she was really angry.

Just then, Second Aunt suddenly came in with a domineering look.

"Oh, my niece-in-law is here too!"

Jiang Sujin: "Why did Second Aunt come here so early in the morning?"

Second Aunt adjusted the large golden hairpin on her hair bun and said in a sarcastic tone.

"I am destined to be a hard worker. I started to count the accounts this morning. After a while, I found that the accounts were not right, so I wanted to ask my sister-in-law for confirmation."

Third Aunt: "What's the problem?"

Second Aunt: "Actually, there isn't much money. I'm the one who manages this family, and there are many places to spend money. Seeing money flowing like water, I naturally want to find ways to save some money."

"My eldest sister-in-law recently asked the housekeeper for thirty taels of silver, saying that she wanted to make new clothes for her niece."

"There's nothing wrong with making clothes for my niece."

"But then you asked for another twenty taels, saying you wanted to buy a bookshelf for your niece."

"But according to the servants, you didn't seem to buy any bookshelves."

"Besides, I already give my niece a monthly allowance, so I shouldn't have to pay her any extra money."

"If you give me fifty taels today and he gives me a hundred taels tomorrow, then I really won't be able to run this business."

Third Aunt: "I suddenly bought clothes for Yunyun because she is going to attend the wedding banquet with me, and I want to make her some decent clothes."

"It's not that we didn't buy the bookshelf, it's just that the size is wrong, so we have to change to another store that makes bookshelves."

Second Aunt said sarcastically, "So that's how it is. Sigh, in the future, we should save as much as possible on such things. Yunyun is still young, why would she need to make expensive clothes?"

Jiang Sujin: "Second Aunt, I remember when Qingqing went to the talent show, the jewelry on her head was all priceless treasures, and the clothes on her body were also made of platinum. Why is it that when it comes to Yunyun, she can save money?"

Second Aunt: "How can it be the same? Qingqing is going to enter the palace. When Qingqing holds a high position in the future, won't we all benefit from it?"

Jiang Sujin: "The palace is a place where people are eaten without leaving any bones. If something happens to Qingqing, wouldn't the money spent on her be wasted?"

Upon hearing this, Second Aunt couldn't help but widen her eyes: "How can you curse Qingqing like this?"

Jiang Sujin: "I'm just reminding Second Aunt that it's best to be mentally prepared. If Qingqing is no longer able to do so, our Yunyun might come in handy."
