After exchanging marriage with my elder sister, I won with a bad hand.

The emperor issued an imperial decree, officially confirming the matter, and then began to prepare for the wedding.

When Shen Yihuan thought about marrying Zhao Xun for the second time, she felt quite shy for some reason.

When she first married Zhao Xun, she had no feelings for him and did not think much about her future destiny.

But this time, she really wanted to marry Zhao Xun and grow old with him.

After the imperial edict came down, Shen Yihuan went back to the prime minister's residence, because only by marrying out from her parents' home could she be legitimate.

Her mother still disliked her as always. As for her eldest sister Shen Yiluo, she had followed Zhao Heng to his fiefdom since the decree came down.

To her surprise, her father's attitude towards her was much better this time and he began to take her seriously.

Shen Yihuan knew very well that this father would not do anything without profit, because it was because he made him see the value of himself.

Otherwise, with his personality, he would not care about his own daughter. He is really a selfish, mean and ungrateful person.

After she returned to the prime minister's residence, except for her mother, everyone else in the residence was trying to curry favor with her. All kinds of gossip girls and relatives who were not related to her at all sprang up like mushrooms after rain. She had never been so busy before.

On this day, Shen Yihuan was sitting in the house, chatting with a group of ladies, looking very happy.

"I've known for a long time that our second daughter is a blessed person. Looking at her face, she is a wealthy and powerful person." A middle-aged woman with well-dressed clothes and a noble face spoke with curved eyes and a flattering look on her face.

As soon as she finished speaking, another person said, "Yes, yes, yes, I said it at the beginning. The second girl was born in October. Looking at her face, she has a phoenix fate."

Shen Yihuan had no idea how many times he had heard these compliments. His ears were almost callused.

She glanced at the two elders who were trying to please her, and said lazily, "Second aunt, third aunt, you are too kind to me. Huan'er is just a young lady, and being loved by the prince is already a blessing from heaven. I dare not ask for too much."

"Second Miss, you are a low-key person with such a gentle and considerate personality. I'm sure the prince must like you very much." They had heard that the prince doted on the new princess and that he had personally mentioned the matter of making her his legal wife.

They were talking animatedly when a little maid suddenly came in from outside the door and told them that a distant relative named Zhenniang was coming to visit with her son.

Zhenniang? Shen Yihuan tried hard to search for memories about this person in her mind, but unfortunately, no matter how hard she tried, she had no impression of her at all.

However, since they are distant relatives, it is obvious that we seldom interact with each other on a daily basis, so it is not surprising that he does not remember them.

She is not the kind of person who flatters the powerful and looks down on the weak. These days, there are so many relatives that she will try her best to meet them whenever she is free.

"Let her in."

Everyone looked confused, and it was obvious that they didn't recognize anyone.

Therefore, when Zhenniang brought her son in, the scene was a bit awkward. Because they didn't know them and they were dressed in simple clothes, they didn't look at them, and they all covered their mouths and laughed secretly.

Unexpectedly, this Zhenniang was such a sociable person. After she came in, she knelt down and greeted everyone warmly, completely disregarding the awkwardness.

"Greetings to the Second Young Lady, and all the ladies." As she knelt down, she pulled the stubborn young man to kneel down with her, and looked up at Shen Yihuan with a flattering expression.

Seeing that the other person was older than him, Shen Yihuan quickly said, "How can you ask Auntie to kneel down? It's really embarrassing. Hurry up, get up quickly."

Seeing that she spoke in a gentle manner, Zhenniang's smile became even more intense. The young man beside her secretly glanced at Shen Yihuan at this time. When he saw that the other party was looking at him, he hurriedly lowered his head, and the tips of his ears turned red suspiciously.

Shen Yihuan was stunned. When he saw the boy's stubborn look just now, he thought he was a cold and reserved person. But seeing his red ears, it seemed that he was also a shy boy.

"The second young lady probably doesn't know who Zhenniang is. It's also because our two families don't visit each other often, so it's not surprising that she forgot about such a relative."

Next, she began to speak for herself in a clear and concise manner, showing her great eloquence.

"So you are the descendant of my grandfather's sworn brother. According to seniority, Huan'er has to call you aunt."

"No, no, we country folk don't care about these things, just call me Zhenniang."

Shen Yi laughed and said in a casual manner: "That won't do. There still has to be respect for the elders and the younger ones."

Zhenniang quickly said a few auspicious words, and then shyly took out the gifts she had brought.

"I heard that the second young lady was appointed as the Crown Princess by His Majesty. Zhenniang was so happy that she couldn't help but come over to congratulate her. This is a picture of hundreds of sons and grandchildren embroidered by Zhenniang. I wish the second young lady and the Crown Prince a long and happy marriage and hundreds of sons and grandchildren." She said with a smile, and then said a little embarrassedly, "It's a crude thing, please don't dislike it, second young lady."

After she finished speaking, the maid beside Shen Yihuan came forward, took the embroidery cloth from her hand, and presented it to Shen Yihuan.

When Shen Yihuan took it in her hand and looked at it, she subconsciously liked it. She couldn't help but reach out to touch the stitches on it. It was a bit crude, not as good as the outstanding embroiderers in Beijing, but the thought behind it was precious.

So she looked up and said politely, "It looks good. Huan'er likes it very much."

The young man next to Zhen Niang has been silent since he came in, and has been observing Shen Yihuan silently.

Just for a moment, Shen Yihuan's approachable attitude made his originally tense heart feel a little better.

Originally, he was unwilling to come here. Although he was still young, he still cared a lot about his reputation. This obvious attempt to curry favor with someone made him, although poor but proud, feel a little uncomfortable.

But now it seems that it is not that difficult to accept. Of course, he will not let Shen Yihuan's gentleness make him feel unworthy.

He tried to advise his mother many times about this matter of climbing up the social ladder, but unfortunately, his mother simply wouldn't listen.

It is said that every family is like this. They have such good connections, why not give it a try.

After all, Zhenniang has experienced more than him and understands the ways of the world better. Nowadays, as a teenager, she still cares more about face. As the saying goes, a man may be poor but his spirit is not poor.

Faced with the kindness shown by Shen Yihuan, his thought was to send the things out quickly so that he could leave quickly.

"Who is this?" Shen Yihuan's eyes fell on the young man next to Zhen Niang. He found his reaction very interesting, so he asked a question.

Her casual question hit the mark of Zhenniang. She came here mainly for her son.

So when Zhenniang heard this, she patted her head subconsciously and said with a look of sudden enlightenment: "Look at me, I forgot to introduce the second girl."
