Shen Yinghua heard a servant report that Skybow and the eldest young master had "coincidentally met" in the garden and then "chatted" in the garden pavilion.
After waving her hand to have the servant leave, Shen Yinghua weakly slumped in the chair.
She laughed in her heart. She still couldn't get over it. What was wrong? Didn't she already know that she was going to marry into this family? What was there to feel bad about now?
She reached out to touch her belly. This was the child she had spent three years to obtain with great difficulty. No matter what, she had to protect it.
In these two years, she had openly and secretly blocked her mother-in-law's request to take a concubine for Yunfei. She couldn't even count how many times she had blocked her mother-in-law's request to take a concubine for Yunfei. It really was laughable. She clearly hated concubine mother Pinhui so much, yet she continuously wanted to shove women into her son's room.
Thinking about how Yunfei had blocked her countless times and shouted that he didn't want to take a concubine, Shen Yinghua's heart was filled with sweetness. However, thinking about what the servant had just said about Yunfei and that Skybow — — Shen Yinghua's eyes dimmed. Perhaps it was because the women her mother-in-law had mentioned were not the ones Yunfei wanted!
After she had a child, she wouldn't stop Yunfei from taking a concubine, but that definitely couldn't be Ji Skybow.
People were always greedy. After dividing the assets and Yunfei had married, Wei Mengxian had indeed lived a comfortable life. However, every time she saw her son and that Chen shi being so sweet, and her son getting closer and closer to Chen shi, Wei Mengxian's heart felt uncomfortable.
Finally, two years after Chen shi married in and still wasn't pregnant, Wei Mengxian finally found an excuse to cause trouble for Chen shi. That was to give Yunfei — — to take a concubine.
There were three ways to be unfilial, and having no children was the worst.
She, Shen Yinghua, couldn't give birth herself. Could it be that she couldn't have another woman give birth for Yunfei?
That year — — Wasn't that old woman letting Pinhui enter the door because of this reason?
But how could Yunfei not understand her heart? She was his mother, so how could she possibly harm him?
In this way, Wei Mengxian transferred her resentment to Shen Yinghua. Even if Shen Yinghua became suspicious later on, not only did she have to manage the affairs of the manor, but she also had to deal with Wei Mengxian from time to time.
In addition, Shen Yinghua was a sensitive person to begin with. How could she feel good when she heard her husband chatting and laughing with his childhood sweetheart every day?
In this way, Shen Yinghua lost weight day by day. Finally, when she was eight months pregnant, she went to Wei Mengxian's house and saw a man and woman hugging each other in the garden. She was so shocked that she fell to the ground and finally gave birth to a child.
After Zhan Yunfei found out, he stayed for two days and disappeared from the Exhibition Garden on the morning of the third day.
However, this had nothing to do with Siya and Yunxiang.
In the past four years, Yunxiang had been doing his best to manage the businesses under his name every day. Now, the businesses in his hands were not only a few small shops in Tong City, but also the textile factory in Shanghai and other shops and factories. The total output was much higher than the Zhan Family's.
Originally, Yunxiang didn't want to ask about the Zhan Family anymore. He just wanted to wait until they separated and moved out in the future. But now, when Yunxiang looked at Skybow, who was blocking his way, he suddenly realized that he was too naive in the past.
Skybow looked at Yunxiang with tears in his eyes. When he thought of how he had overheard the Eldest Madam talking to his father about matchmaking for him, his heart felt even more uncomfortable.
The one she loved the most was the Eldest Young Master. No — she would only love the Eldest Young Master in this life. She couldn't marry outside the Exhibition Garden. She had to stay in the Exhibition Garden and wait for the Eldest Young Master to come back.
Skybow knew that the only one who could help him now was Yunxiang!
She had been afraid of Yunxiang since she was young because Yunxiang always bullied her. But her brother also said that Yunxiang only played with her because he liked her, but she was still afraid of him.
She was worried that only by marrying Yunxiang would she have a chance to stay in the Exhibition Garden and wait for the Eldest Young Master to come back. So she came. She wanted to find Yunxiang and tell him that she was willing to marry him.
Yunxiang looked at Skybow. He really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
He finally understood what Ji Tianhong had just said. Although he didn't know why Ji Tianhong was looking for him when she clearly liked his good brother, it had nothing to do with him.
When he was young, he had a few playmates. He and Yunfei loathed each other, so he played with Steward Ji's son — — Tian Yao. Naturally, he also became familiar with Tian Yao's younger sister, Skybow.
At that time, Skybow was small and fragrant like a doll. She always looked at him with a pair of teary eyes. Moreover, Skybow was indeed beautiful, so he liked to play with Skybow. However, Skybow always followed Yunfei, so he, who was jealous of Yunfei, always bullied Skybow to attract Skybow's attention. He wanted her to play with him too.
To put it bluntly, it was just a child who wanted to monopolize the "toy" he liked!
However, a toy was still a toy. No matter how much the owner liked it, it was still a toy. No one would spend a lifetime with a toy.
After Skybow finished speaking, she waited for Yunxiang's reply. However, Yunxiang just looked at her and left. Skybow didn't know Yunxiang's answer.
Although she was afraid of Yunxiang, for her beloved young master, Skybow still mustered the courage to grab Yunxiang's sleeve.
"Yunxiang, I'm serious. I'm really touched by your love. I want to spend the rest of my life with you."
Yunxiang broke free from Skybow's grip.
"First of all, I don't know how you can tell that I like you, but I want to say that I don't like you at all. I don't have any feelings for you. Except for a few times when we played together before we were seven or eight years old, we haven't seen each other or talked to each other for so many years, right? Secondly, now everyone in Tong City knows that the daughter of the Zhan family's Steward Ji and the young master of the Zhan family are 'childhood sweethearts'. You, Ji Skybow, are Yunfei's little shadow, aren't you? Now you're saying that you want to marry me? Do you think I'm a fool? Lastly, you're just a servant's daughter. Although I'm a concubine's son, I'm still a master. Which master would officially marry a servant? Do you really think that just because everyone calls you 'Miss Tian Hong', you're really a miss? "
Skybow didn't expect that after she proposed to marry Yunxiang, Yunxiang would say that about her. Didn't Yunxiang like her? Her brother also said that Yunxiang bullied her when she was young because he liked her to attract her attention. But why did Yunxiang say that about her now?
Yunxiang looked at Skybow, who had fallen into her own fantasy again. He ignored her and turned to leave.
He was busy earning money every day. He was very busy and didn't have time to talk nonsense with her.
However, the Zhan family was obviously not a strict family. Soon, there was a new rumor in Tong City.
After the young master of the Zhan family left, the daughter of the Zhan family's Steward Ji changed her target to the second young master of the Zhan family. She wanted the second young master of the Zhan family to marry her. Unfortunately, the second young master of the Zhan family didn't like her.
Although the Zhan family split up a few years ago and the second young master of the Zhan family only got a little property, he had his own ability and now he had earned a huge family business on his own.
However, because of this rumor, Ji Skybow and Yunxiang didn't have good days.
First, it was Ji Skybow. An unmarried woman who kept spreading such rumors. How could she get married in the future? Because of this, Steward Ji frowned and sighed all day long.
Although Ji Skybow didn't think much of it, it was better if she couldn't get married. That way, he could stay in the Zhan garden and wait for her young master to come back.
However, when she saw her father like that, Ji Skybow, who thought of herself as a filial daughter, also felt very uncomfortable. When she had nothing to do, she would secretly hide in her room and cry.
She cried until Ji Tianyao's head hurt.
Ji Tianyao also doted on Ji Skybow. Although he didn't like his younger sister crying since they were young, she was still his younger sister no matter what.
Seeing his father and younger sister like that, in the end, Ji Tianyao couldn't help but look for Yunxiang himself. He hoped that Yunxiang would marry Skybow on account of their friendship since they were young.
Yunxiang really didn't know what to say. He knew Ji Tianyao since they were young. How could he not know that he was also a person with a brain?
Friendship? A master talking about friendship with a servant was the master being benevolent. Even if he didn't talk about friendship, it didn't matter.
He had never seen a servant talk about friendship with a master!
Also, how important was it to fulfill one's wish?! Of the four great joyous events in life, one was the wedding night. How could he have the nerve to ask him about this? He really took himself too seriously.
He even said that if he met a girl he liked in the future, Ji Skybow definitely wouldn't stop him from taking in a concubine?
Did she, Ji Skybow, have that qualification? Also, why could the girl he liked only be a concubine?
After letting Ji Tianyao go back, Yunxiang knew that the friendship between him and Ji Tianyao when they were young had dissipated with this conversation.
However, Ji Tianyao's arrival also reminded him that it was better for him to quickly marry Siya. Otherwise, who knew if those people would do something to his marriage in the future.
Arriving at Pinhui's courtyard, Yunxiang recounted what happened just now. It angered Pinhui so much that she stood in the courtyard and scolded Steward Ji's family.
Then, Yunxiang immediately went to Bai Family.
As soon as he entered the door, Yunxiang felt that everyone in Bai Family didn't like him very much.
Touching his nose, Yunxiang knew that it must be because of the previous rumors.
