Chapter 517 - 512: You Really Are Sinister and Shameless
Chapter 517 - 512: You Really Are Sinister and Shameless
Shen Zhiyi sneered.
"If I were his sworn sister, I’d be your elder. Why don’t you call me Aunt and see how it sounds?"
Yu Tingwan just looked at her like that.
Yu Tingwan: "That would be troublesome, a mess."
She tried to reason with her: "Your aunt is my aunt-in-law, and now you want to be my elder. What are you trying to do? Compete with her for status?"
Yu Tingwan: "Does that sound reasonable?"
Shen Zhiyi couldn’t argue with her.
"Why don’t you get Wei Zhao to come?"
Shen Zhiyi: "What? Can’t get him to move?"
Yu Tingwan was surprised why she would ask that: "Such a tiresome job, how could I bear to trouble him with it?"
Shen Zhiyi: ??
What kind of beast are you?
She laughed in anger.
But she also understood that He Xuran was busy like a dog, and there were too many new policies in the court these days, Wei Zhao and Xiao Huaian both had to check them, and were also busy.
Only that person on the throne...
A few days ago, he coughed up blood, so he needs to focus on maintaining his health.
All he does every day is take medicine, sleep, and...
Send messages through others.
It’s all very perfunctory formalities.
-- "You’ve worked hard."
-- "I feel guilty and find it hard to bear."
-- "How could the court survive without you?"
Those words left Wei Zhao expressionless, while Xiao Huaian directly cursed Ying Fuyan as shameless.
Of course, that’s effective for one person.
He Xuran.
He was grateful for the royal grace and worked even harder.
Shen Zhiyi: "There’s too much, I can’t help it all."
Yu Tingwan nodded, indicating she understood.
"I called someone else in."
Just as Shen Zhiyi was about to ask who, she heard Gu Wu’s voice outside.
"Sister."
Shen Zhiyi squinted her eyes.
"I didn’t expect you’d call her."
"I didn’t call her."
Yu Tingwan looked at her: "I invited Zhou Yurou. Perhaps the carriage from Duke Mansion passed by the Grand Tutor Mansion and she saw it."
Shen Zhiyi was just about to nod.
But she suddenly stood up.
"What! You called Zhou Yurou?"
"Yu Tingwan, you clearly know she disgusts me!"
Yu Tingwan just casually said: "Don’t get agitated. Putting aside her character, how is her ability?"
Shen Zhiyi was silent.
Her ability is quite good.
Wanting to climb high, Zhou Yurou has put in a lot of effort in her studies and managing the household.
Yu Tingwan chided her: "You’re still too young."
Yu Tingwan: "Those who achieve great things don’t bother with trivial matters. Let’s put aside past grievances for today."
"No..."
Yu Tingwan, sincere and gentle: "For my sake, could you endure a little?"
Shen Zhiyi suddenly couldn’t refuse anymore.
Yu Tingwan said to her: "After all, her character is not great, and she’s usually disgusting to people. But her father has already been demoted, and though the Yang Family witchcraft case didn’t implicate her directly, she was involved to some extent. She’s also quite frightened. I don’t know how she behaves in the house these days, but she’s keeping a low profile outside."
"Moreover,"
She got to the key point.
"You shouldn’t resent her too much either."
"If she hadn’t taken such a useless Chu Liulang, you wouldn’t have the comfortable days you have now."
Shen Zhiyi suddenly saw the light.
Realization dawned on her.
Indeed.
If you look at it that way, Zhou Yurou actually saved her.
"After all, it’s your family’s shop. Aren’t you worried she’ll learn too much?"
What is Yu Tingwan afraid of?
"I’ve filtered it. I won’t let her touch what she shouldn’t."
Shen Zhiyi nodded, but she soon realized something.
"The Zhou Family doesn’t pass by the Grand Tutor Mansion on the way to the Duke Mansion; this obviously isn’t on the way."
Yu Tingwan innocently: "And then?"
Shen Zhiyi slammed her hand on the table, amazed.
"You’re really sneaky and wicked!"
Yu Tingwan didn’t say anything.
Because she couldn’t refute it.
"Why do you tarnish my sister’s name for no reason?"
Finally, Gu Wu walked over. It was hot, and her forehead was sweaty, but she didn’t have time to wipe it off before glaring down at Shen Zhiyi in anger.
"My sister is such a kind-hearted and beautiful woman, truly hard to find in all of Shangjing."
Gu Wu: "Do you think she’s like you?"
The two of them would fight as soon as they met.
Shen Zhiyi used to dislike Gu Wu’s arrogance, her disdainful gaze that looked down on everyone, wasn’t it just because she had a noble status?
Gu Wu, on the other hand, despised her crudeness, like a shrew who indiscriminately attacked everyone she saw.
Even now, the two of them were at it.
Shen Zhiyi felt that Gu Wu was two-faced, even her voice could change pitch in front of Yu Tingwan.
Gu Wu was jealous that her sister was willing to be so close to Shen Zhiyi.
So...
Shen Zhiyi crossed her arms and sneered: "Heh!"
Her eyes moved past Gu Wu and landed on Zhou Yurou, who was walking over with her head hanging low.
Maybe sensing her gaze, Zhou Yurou buried her head even lower.
Gu Wu couldn’t be bothered with her, turned her head, changed her expression, putting away her cold disdain, and sweetly said: "Sister, why call someone from outside and not call me?"
"I’ve got plenty of free time. See, I came here eagerly."
Shen Zhiyi: ...
That’s why she said Yu Tingwan was cunning.
The Duke Mansion’s carriage passed by the Gu Family, how could the Gu Family not know?
Yu Tingwan: "This isn’t good, is it?"
"Why isn’t it good?"
Yu Tingwan: "It’s quite tiring."
Gu Wu was moved!
Shen Zhiyi: ?
Zhou Yurou dared not make a sound, breathing lightly, trying to reduce her presence.
How could she dare have any dissatisfaction now?
She was just scared.
Yu Tingwan raised her eyes to Zhou Yurou.
"Was it tiring coming here?"
Yu Tingwan stepped forward and looked at her: "Why are you shaking?"
"I’m not calling you here to make things difficult for you."
"Even though you once wanted to harm me, wanted me dead, you didn’t succeed, right?"
"You wanted to win over Yunling, and call me sister-in-law like him, but it was all in vain just the same."
"Even though your reputation is tarnished now and you’re no longer glorious. But..."
Every word hit the heart.
Yu Tingwan held her hand.
"I don’t blame you."
Zhou Yurou’s eyes flashed with hope: "Re... really?"
Yu Tingwan smiled, her eyes gentle, coaxing her: "I even want to be good sisters with you."
Shen Zhiyi: ...
You’re really shameless.
She was frustrated.
If Yu Tingwan had just spoken to her like that.
How could she bear to refuse?
She finally understood how Yu Tingwan managed to win over Wei Zhao.
Gu Wu: ???
Zhou Yurou half-believed her.
Yu Tingwan, showing a difficult expression, softly told her: "It’s just that your sister here is encountering a little trouble now."
Gu Wu couldn’t listen anymore.
"Sister, I’m not afraid of getting tired."
"After all, it’s our own family’s matter, I don’t think we need to trouble outsiders."
Gu Wu gave an example: "What if Zhou Yurou has bad intentions and causes trouble inside?"
Moved by Yu Tingwan, Zhou Yurou trembled: "I... I wouldn’t dare."
"Not dare?"
Gu Wu sneered, her aura coming out: "I know your character, and you saying you don’t dare isn’t because you have realized your mistakes and repented."
"But because you recognize the situation and know that offending my sister is something you can’t afford."
Shen Zhiyi agreed with this.
She would almost nod.
Gu Wu: "Shen Zhiyi isn’t as meticulous as I am either."
"Sister, let them go back, I’m enough on my own."
Yu Tingwan: ???
She was silent for a long time.
Did you not see those baskets and baskets?
"You..."
Yu Tingwan was at a loss for words.
Shen Zhiyi’s gaze towards her changed too.
"Gu Wu, your marriage isn’t settled yet, right?"
Gu Wu: "Mind your own business?"
Shen Zhiyi sincerely: "Honestly, you and my newly recognized sworn brother quite match each other."
