The mistress just wanted to be bad, but she took off after being replaced
Chapter 43: Watching the Show
She looked innocent and asked in confusion, "Why, sister? Do you think this gentleman's speech is not good?"
For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on her.
Pei Yu frowned slightly when he heard the voice. At first, he was displeased with Sheng Junwei's obvious rude behavior, but then he thought about a series of events that had happened recently, and a question emerged in his mind: Did she discover something?
"Weier is not a rude person. She must have her reasons." When Pei Yu said this, everyone present was surprised.
Mr. Pei was so determined to protect this "daughter" whose identity was questionable. Facing the facts before him, he seemed to choose to turn a blind eye. Why was that?
Sheng Ruijiao clasped her palms tightly with her fingertips, just to vent her endless indignation towards the scumbag.
She whispered repeatedly, "Scumbag! Scumbag!"
Sheng Junwei looked confused and stared at Pei Yu, trying to find the answer from his expression.
She thought to herself, "Does he want me to plead for Han Yue'er? No way!"
She avoided Pei Yu's gaze and said in a calm but sharp tone, "How could you feel moved by such a story?"
Some people in the crowd looked confused and puzzled, apparently not yet recovered from the emotion they had just felt.
When Sheng Ruijiao heard this, she sneered in her heart but kept a calm expression on her face.
She lowered her voice, her tone full of sarcasm: "Sister, why do you have such extreme thoughts? Just because of your own rough experience, do you have to belittle other people's stories?"
Her words seemed caring, but they were actually sharp.
Sheng Junwei turned a deaf ear to this. She swept her eyes coldly across the faces of those noble ladies and asked a question.
"If one day, your daughter also falls in love with a poor boy, and even breaks up with you, will you still be able to bless them with a smile, and be moved to tears by their tragic love story?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place fell into deathly silence, as if even the air had frozen.
After a short silence, a noble lady exclaimed: "How is it possible?! If any poor boy dares to hit on my daughter, I will teach him a lesson!"
Before she could finish her words, she realized her slip of the tongue and looked around in shame.
Although the other noble ladies agreed in their hearts, they chose to remain silent due to their long-standing hostility with Sheng Junwei.
A noble lady tried to break the deadlock, "But no matter what, the hero and heroine in the story finally overcame all difficulties, and the ending is still happy, isn't it?"
Sheng Junwei pointed out sharply: "The woman suffered all kinds of hardships in the man's family, and was only posthumously named a royal lady at the last moment of her life. Do you really want to experience this so-called 'glory'?"
This story is nothing but wishful thinking from a male perspective and a wanton manipulation of women's fate.
It tells the story of a rich girl who falls in love with a poor scholar despite her family's opposition.
The man was overjoyed about this, as if a golden phoenix was about to fly into his home and bring them endless glory and wealth.
This was a marriage that was arranged without the permission of parents or matchmaker.
The poor boy's family was impoverished and his walls were bare, so he couldn't even afford a decent betrothal gift.
The once noble and wealthy lady suddenly changed her status overnight and became the wife of a poor family.
Fortunately, there is a little pocket money that I brought with me when I got married, which can barely support the daily expenses of the family, but how can this meager savings fill the gap in life?
The poor boy did not give up. With his firm belief in the future, he studied hard day and night.
Finally, after ten full decades of hard work, he lived up to everyone's expectations and became the top scorer in high school.
However, the daughter had already spent all her private money. She had gradually transformed from a wealthy family to a poor family, and her former beauty was no longer there.
What is even more worrying is that as the poor boy became more successful, his mother gradually began to act like a mother-in-law.
The young lady, who once had never done housework, now not only has to serve her elderly mother-in-law carefully, but also has to look after her shrewd sister-in-law, and take care of all the household chores.
After the man graduated from high school, she indeed became the envied wife of the top scholar, however, this short-lived good time was fleeting.
Long-term hard work made her body increasingly weak, and finally, she passed away in tears on her sickbed.
The man quickly turned around and married the daughter of the prime minister who was divorced. From then on, he became the son-in-law of a powerful family.
This is actually used by people to praise the loyalty and preciousness of love.
Faithfulness? Pah!
Sheng Junwei denounced without disguising: "Cross-class love is rare, but whether it is worthy of praise depends on whether the person is worthy of trust."
After hearing this, Pei Yu asked with interest: "So in your opinion, what kind of person is worthy?"
"If I were the girl, or the girl's mother, before agreeing to marry or letting my daughter marry, the first thing I would consider is the man's character." Sheng Junwei said firmly, "Children from poor families will understand their parents' hard work and take the initiative to help with things within their ability after school to reduce the burden on the family."
Sheng Junwei's endless talk instantly exploded in the hearts of these ladies, forcing them to re-examine the nature of the relationship between men and women and reflect on their own position and value in the family.
Just when everyone was still immersed in the deep shock caused by Sheng Junwei's views and unable to extricate themselves, the second gold medal embroiderer slowly walked onto the display stand.
However, as the audience's minds were still firmly occupied by Sheng Junwei's previous conceptual shock wave, the reaction to the subsequent clothing show was obviously much duller and far less enthusiastic than expected.
It was not until the fifth show that the much-anticipated chief gold medal embroiderer of Yunjinfang finally made her debut.
At this moment, Sheng Junwei's gaze passed over Sun Xiuniang in front of her and caught a glimpse of Si Qi quietly poking her head out from behind a door not far away, and gave her a bright smile like spring, as if silently cheering her on.
Sun Xiu Niang, the gold medal embroiderer, is an unshakable monument in the embroidery world.
The intricate creativity of the needle and thread under her fingertips is woven into exquisite works of art.
At this moment, Sheng Junwei's eyes moved and she glanced quietly at Si Qi behind the door not far away, with a barely perceptible smile on her lips.
Si Qi responded confidently with her lips: "Watch me!"
Sheng Junwei nodded slightly, picked up the melon seeds on the table, and sat leisurely watching the show that was about to begin.
Pei Yu had a wry smile on his face, with helplessness in his eyes.
As soon as Sun Xiu Niang appeared, she caused ripples of emotions among the noble ladies present.
Their faces showed surprise, nervousness, or jealousy. They were all secretly gathering their strength, vowing to win Sun Xiu Niang's works, especially the "Late Autumn" in the next bidding.
After Sun Xiu Niang's performance came to a successful conclusion, it was Si Qi's turn to take the stage.
