After the marriage, my husband's family listened to my voice and turned the tide

Shang Tingli walked over and asked doubtfully, "Didn't the prince say before that he wouldn't go?"

"Oh--"

Ke Xin remained calm: "That's what I said before."

Shang Tingli was silent for a moment and then said, "As long as you like it."

[So you are who you are now? ]

Ke Xin nodded and answered two sentences at once.

Shang Tingli turned his head away and curled his lips speechlessly.

[Who said that women are fickle? I see that this man is also very fickle.]

Ke Xin raised his head, pretended not to hear, and got on the carriage.

When the two of them arrived at the Yi Zhong Hou Mansion, the concierge led them directly to the dining hall, and Yu Lanxi and Ji Zhang had already arrived. Shang Tingli even suspected that the couple had stayed here for a whole day.

Upon seeing the two of them, Yu Jing's face was filled with smiles, and he welcomed them very much: "The Crown Prince and the Crown Princess are here? Please take a seat quickly."

Shang Tingli smiled and said, "Uncle, you are too polite."

Ke Xin didn't say anything, but just sat down with her next to Yu Jing.

"As I should, as I should." Yu Jing smiled like a loving uncle.

Shang Tingli stopped talking at this moment.

This time was different from the last time they went back to their parents' home. There was no longer a separate table for men and women, only one table was set up. At the table, apart from Yu Jing and his wife, Yu Lanxi and his wife, and Yu Rongbao and his wife, there were only Shang Tingli and Ke Xin and his wife. Yu Lingling and her friends didn't have a chance to sit at the table this time.

Most of the dishes on the table were vegetarian, and even only a small jar of wine was served.

It was still a period of national mourning for the Empress Dowager, so the Yu Mansion did not dare to be too blatant, not to mention that there was a prince involved.

Yu Jing was naturally very happy about Ji Zhang's promotion, otherwise he would not have asked Shang Tingli to bring the prince back for dinner. He smiled and raised his glass to Ji Zhang, saying, "Congratulations to my dear son-in-law on your promotion. I'll drink this glass of wine first, and you can do whatever you want."

There was a lot of satisfaction in his words, and he seemed to agree with his son-in-law's intentions to some extent.

Ji Zhang quickly said, "I toast to my father-in-law." He also picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

The relationship between the father-in-law and the son-in-law seemed more harmonious than last time. At least the smile on Yu Jing's face looked more genuine.

Shang Tingli ate the food in silence and suddenly felt that the food was tasteless.

[Let me come back to see this villain's smug look, aren't you afraid that I will get angry and kill him? ]

[…Okay, I really can’t do it for now. ]

Ke Xin shook his head secretly.

"Brother-in-law, let me toast you a glass." Yu Rongbao said, holding up the glass.

He had originally looked down on this brother-in-law, thinking that he was not worthy of his sister, let alone his orphaned cousin. But he had never expected that this brother-in-law would surprise people, and actually caught the Fourth Prince's eye, jumping from a Blue Feather Guard to a fifth-rank Guide Langjiang.

Ji Zhang naturally didn't know what he was thinking, so he picked up the wine glass again and said with a smile: "I toast to you, big brother."

The two of them drank a glass together.

Seeing this, everyone at the table looked at Ke Xin, as if waiting for his response, but he remained indifferent, eating and drinking. When he realized that everyone was looking at him, Ke Xin raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why are you looking at me? Eat."

Everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to say anything.

Seeing this, Shang Tingli appeared calm on the surface, but he was actually very happy in his heart.

[Hahaha, you guys are really daring. The fact that the prince is willing to come here is a huge honor for you, but you still want him to say congratulations and offer a glass of wine. A dignified prince will give you a fifth-rank rank to celebrate. Does Ji Zhang deserve it? ]

[I have a really big face. ]

Ke Xin raised the corner of his lips slightly and took a sip of wine casually.

After all, this was her own happy event, and Yu Lanxi not only wanted to show off, but also wanted to prove that her vision was not bad and her original choice was not wrong. She had been holding back her breath, waiting for the day when Ji Zhang became a general and she became a first-rank imperial lady.

Even though it was just the first step, Yu Lanxi couldn't help but shout, "Now my husband is already a legitimate general. He jumped from the bottom to become a Guide Langjiang, which shows how great his potential is. I believe it won't be long before he can become a Zhengbei General."

The General Zheng Bei that she mentioned was of the fourth rank.

Ji Zhang blushed, as if he was a little embarrassed, but there was not much humility in his words: "Madam, you trust me so much, I will definitely live up to your trust."

His words pleased Yu Jing.

Yu Jing smiled so hard that he couldn't stop and said "OK" three times in a row.

"..."

Shang Tingli gradually stopped eating.

[It's really like one dares to brag, the other dares to make a big promise. Some people only grow older but not smarter in their next life, while some people are born with such confidence without considering their abilities. ]

Ke Xin curled the corners of his mouth. As long as she wasn't scolding him, it felt pretty good to listen to her scolding.

Yu Lanxi caught a glimpse of Shang Tingli's expression and thought that Shang Tingli was upset. She was happy when someone was unhappy, so she smiled and said, "Why didn't cousin Tingli move her chopsticks? Is the food not to your liking?"

Before Shang Tingli could reply, Pan Yaying said, "It is not to my liking. After all, our mansion is not as good as the royal mansion. And now it is the mourning period for the Empress Dowager, which makes it even more difficult."

This is what it means to be sarcastic to your niece.

She secretly cursed Shang Tingli for being so picky after being married to Prince Ren's mansion for more than a month. Now she came back to complain about her uncle's family, which made her seem ungrateful.

[This is the face of my biological aunt. ]

Shang Tingli sneered in his heart, but he forced a smile on his face, which was almost bleak: "Aunt, you are joking. How could I complain about your banquet? It is precisely because it is a period of national mourning that I have no appetite for these meat dishes."

She retorted.

Knowing that it was a period of national mourning, and yet still dignifying the prince with wine and meat, they even dared to invite him to their home for dinner. I'm afraid the Yi Zhong Hou Mansion is thinking they're dying, and they're really not afraid of the news leaking out and being used against them by their political enemies.

Pan Yaying's face darkened.

Yu Jing's expression also changed.

Yu Lanxi was the first to express her displeasure: "Is my cousin overthinking, or is she simply jealous of me?"

Shang Tingli was surprised and asked, "Why do you say that, cousin?"

"You know very well that today is my wedding day, yet you don't even want to pretend. What's the matter? I'm having a good life, is it so hard for you to swallow that?" Yu Lanxi sneered.

[It really turns my stomach and makes it hard to swallow. Why do you have such self-awareness to ask me to go on this trip? ]

Shang Tingli answered in her heart, but she did not show it on her face. Instead, she sighed and said, "Cousin, you really misunderstood me. I really didn't mean that. Otherwise, why would I come back for this meal?"

Yu Lanxi turned her face away: "I think this is what you mean!"

Shang Tingli smiled politely, but someone spoke before her: "Marquis Yu invited me and the Crown Prince's Consort to dinner, just to get mad at us?"

She was startled, and when she turned her head, she saw Ke Xin's sullen profile.
