The next day, Shen Jie deliberately asked for leave from the court, and accompanied Du Yaoyao to the Yongning Hou Mansion to apologize.
The last time she was carried out in a dazed state with a pretense, this time Du Yaoyao got up early to dress up carefully in order to save some face when going out.
Throwing away the big hits and heavy makeup in the past, she dressed up extraordinarily elegantly and refinedly.
Smokey powder gauze skirt, plain white cloak, a circle of fox fur around the neckline makes her small face crystal clear, her long loose hair is scattered behind her, she lowers her head slightly, with thick black eyelashes, pink lips and white teeth.
What a water hibiscus.
Seeing the amazement flashing in Shen Jie's eyes, Du Yaoyao's vanity as a beauty was slightly satisfied.
Sure enough—men are visual animals, and they like pure and harmless little white flowers.
Shen Jie was more attentive than usual, and when he saw her stepping out of the gate, he came over to help her get into the carriage.
The driver didn't let go when he got on the carriage, he put it on her waist and rubbed it weakly. Du Yaoyao was willing to betray him, so she leaned on his shoulder docilely.
"Don't you eat well on weekdays?" Shen Jie held half of her waist with one hand, rarely caring.
This body was originally thin because of picky eaters, but after Du Yaoyao wore it, she often encountered troubles, was frightened, couldn't eat well and didn't sleep well, how could she be fat.
"I have a bad appetite." She replied flatly.
"What kind of dishes do you want to eat, tell the butler in the house that you can invite the cook outside." Shen Jie reminded.
"Hmm." Du Yaoyao was too lazy to exchange pleasantries. Close your eyes and rest.
Soon to Yongning Hou Mansion.
The guard at the gate opened the door, and Yin Ye revealed his identity to the person who came. The guard looked back and forth, looking at the pair of Bi people beside the carriage, both amazing and rare.
It's no wonder that the young servant is curious, even the wife of the eldest son of the Yongning Hou Mansion——Ruan's family is also extremely surprised.
Ruan is Song Xingkai's wife, a noble lady hired by her cousin by her aunt.
When Ruan heard that Shen Jie was visiting with her cousin, she came out of the mansion to greet her. The Crown Prince and Prince Chen were at odds, but as a woman in charge of the house, she had to give Shen Jie, a first-rank minister, three points of face.
Ruan's appearance was beautiful, her temperament was gentle, and she said with a smile: "What kind of wind is it today that has brought Yaoyao and Master Shen here, come quickly to the house." The
last time Shen Jie accompanied Du Yaoyao to the house was three years ago. Just after getting married, I accompanied the woman to my aunt's house symbolically.
This time is clearly different. Not to mention the change in Du Yaoyao's appearance, Shen Jie's attitude alone is intriguing enough.
It is not a shocking scandal for a wife to seduce her cousin, which man she puts on her body, but Shen Jie came forward generously, obviously not paying attention to it.
He walked side by side with Du Yaoyao, his steps were slow, and when he went up the steps, he reached out to help her.
The inadvertent attention and care cannot be concealed.
The maids and women lowered their eyebrows, and no one dared to say anything about what happened that day.
Ruan was leading the way, when suddenly a stone fell on Du Yaoyao's feet, accompanied by the clear scolding voice of the young child:
"You bad woman! You are not allowed to enter my house, you are a bad woman who seduced my father!"
Du Yao Yao was stunned, and followed the prestige, and there was a little boy about two years old standing under the plum tree on one side, staring at her angrily.
Seeing her look, the child picked up the stones on the ground and wanted to throw them at her again.
Shen Jie hurriedly stood in front of Du Yaoyao, and said coldly to Ruan,
"Yaoyao was drunk that day, and if your mansion doesn't clarify the intention of reconciliation, Shen will take his wife back!"
"Song Lin!" Ruan Shi yelled at the child, who was so frightened that he burst into tears, Ruan Shi reprimanded the maid beside him, "Hurry up and take Lin'er down!" The
two maids hurriedly hugged Song Lin and walked away.
Ruan walked up to Shen Jie and Du Yaoyao, blessed her slightly, and said apologetically, "Tong Yan Wuji, Mr. Shen, please forgive me. Cousin Yaoyao, please
don't take it to heart." . Du Yaoyao said, "It's okay." Pulling his sleeve, "Forget it."
In a sense, Shen Jie was protecting her face, but he was also protecting his dignity as a man.
The two are not only a nominal couple, but also a real couple. When one's own woman is being bullied, what brilliance can a man have on his face.
She won't be so narcissistic that Shen Jie has already started to like her. To him, these are just insignificant matters under his status, fulfilling his husband's duties.
She provides physical value, and he allows her to take advantage of the situation.
In this episode, Du Yaoyao and Shen Jie sat in the main room and had a cup of tea, which was resolved.
It was said that the child's nurse was a bitch, and she made irresponsible remarks in front of Song Lin on weekdays, causing the child to misunderstand Du Yaoyao, the cousin.
Shen Jie smiled noncommittally.
Du Yaoyao forced a smile.
A child over two years old, if he is not taught, if he does not have the permission of an adult, how dare he hit and curse at the visitors.
Even if he had seen her, how could Song Lin recognize her so accurately when she changed her clothes.
The instigator behind the scenes wanted to show her off today, but he didn't expect that Shen Jie would come with her and protect her like that in front of others.
This aunt was not very well informed, and also underestimated Shen Jie's generosity.
Ruan said that the wet nurse has been held accountable for the sale, and Du Yaoyao doesn't want to pursue too much. The original owner was at fault for this matter.
For the first time, Du played the role of a good aunt in front of Shen Jie, teaching Du Yaoyao to keep her own place, serve her husband well, and give birth to a child for Shen Jie as soon as possible.
Du Yaoyao's left ear went in and out of his right ear, but Shen Jie lost his mind for a moment when he heard the child.
Sitting together was boring, Du Yaoyao wanted to withdraw, but suddenly heard the servant girl come to report, "Madam, young lady, the son is back!"
Swish, swish, several eyes in the hall glanced at Du Yaoyao at the same time.
Du Yaoyao: "...?"
Probably aunt, cousin, and Shen Jie all thought that she was still "undecided".
Especially Shen Jie, those eyes were as sharp as sharp knives, they barely penetrated her heart to see clearly.
The original owner is infatuated, Du Yaoyao is no good, she is a gentleman, she smiled generously and said: "It just so happens that I also want to personally apologize to my cousin for what happened that day."
As soon as the words were finished, a figure dressed in white and warm as the wind stepped in from the door, and when Du Yaoyao saw the person's face clearly, the teacup in her hand fell to the ground with a "slap"!
