The second wife is charming to the bone, and Mr. Shen is very honest

Chapter 44 Birthday Banquet 1

Xiao Shian didn't feel anything at first, but slowly his whole body started to feel hot.

Su Jinyue had someone put something in his teacup. This thing would make him extremely excited, similar to an aphrodisiac.

But after all, he is the prime minister's son, and Su Jinyue didn't want others to notice it, so she only added a little bit.

In this way, Xiao Shian will become more and more restless, especially when he sees someone he likes, he will naturally become more restless.

After a while, Madam Shen brought Jiang Sujin to the table of Duke Rong.

As the wife of Duke Rong, Mrs. Shen needs to exchange a few words with the guests at each table to show the hospitality of the Duke's Mansion.

Jiang Sujin originally wanted to find an excuse to leave, but then she thought that the more she did this, the more outsiders would think she was guilty.

Anyway, the old lady is here, so as long as she acts honestly, no one can find fault with her.

But as soon as Jiang Sujin approached, Xiao Shian became visibly excited.

Seeing this, Shen Yanfeng's face naturally darkened.

When Prime Minister Xiao felt the change in his son, he couldn't help but pinch him from below, and he calmed down a little.

Jiang Sujin poured a glass of wine for the old lady, who said to Prime Minister Xiao, "Prime Minister Xiao's presence here really brings honor to the Shen Mansion!"

Prime Minister Xiao: "Madam, you are so polite. This birthday banquet is so lively, which shows that you really put in a lot of effort."

Old Madam Shen: "How can this be all my own credit? Without my granddaughter-in-law, I wouldn't have thought of so much."

Prime Minister Xiao had a bad impression of Jiang Sujin, so he didn't look at her.

"The old lady has taught me well. Come, Xiao, let me toast to the old lady!"

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen immediately raised her glass and motioned for everyone to drink together.

"Come, let's toast to the Prime Minister together!"

"Respectfully, Prime Minister!"

Xiao Shian looked at Jiang Sujin with a resentful look on his face, then raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp.

After everyone finished drinking, they immediately smiled politely.

At this moment, Xiao Shian suddenly looked at Jiang Sujin and said, "Young Madam, you and I are old acquaintances. Come, I will offer you a drink today."

When everyone heard this, the smiles on their faces froze instantly.

Shen Yanfeng's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. Xiao Shian was really bold to do this in front of his father.

Jiang Sujin glanced at everyone, and then said generously: "Mr. Xiao is polite, but I can't hold my liquor, so I hope my husband can offer a toast to Mr. Xiao on my behalf."

After Jiang Sujin finished speaking, she immediately looked at Shen Yanfeng with a shy face.

Jiang Sujin was showing everyone that she only had her husband in her heart now.

Just as Shen Yanfeng was about to raise his glass, Xiao Shian spoke again.

"Really? I remember you drank quite a lot that day at Yue Lai Tea House."

Xiao Shian was telling everyone that she, Jiang Sujin, had dated him, Xiao Shian, and that she had even drunk with him.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but frown, and the scene of that day instantly appeared in her mind.

Fortunately, she still had a bit of rationality at that time and did not let him take advantage of her.

It was just that she couldn't explain these things in person, and what Xiao Shian said was like stepping on her face.

An unmarried woman had a secret meeting with a man outside her family and even drank alcohol. Regardless of whether she was innocent or not, the fact alone was enough to shock the world.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished saying this, everyone's expressions changed instantly.

The old lady's face also turned ugly, and the expressions of the elders in the Shen family were all unnatural.

When Su Jinyue at the banquet saw this scene, she couldn't help but curl her lips. This Xiao Shian is really awesome!

Just as Jiang Sujin was about to explain, Shen Yanfeng suddenly stood up.

He came directly to Xiao Shian's side, and Xiao Shian's face suddenly turned visibly pale.

“What are you…going to do?”

Shen Yanfeng reached out and flicked the dust off his collar, which frightened him so much that he couldn't help but tremble.

"Mr. Xiao has come all the way here, so naturally, Mr. Shen is very grateful."

"I know that Mr. Xiao is upset about my wife, but...she is my wife now. I love her to the core, so I cannot bear to hear you insult her like this."

"My Su Su is the most pure and innocent woman in the world. I will not allow anyone to insult her."

After he finished saying this, everyone present couldn't help but widen their eyes, and Su Jinyue's face turned pale in an instant.

Didn't Lord Shen miss his deceased wife? Now he took the initiative to protect his second wife.

As soon as he stood up, the style of the painting instantly changed.

In this way, he not only proved Jiang Sujin's innocence, but also acknowledged to the world the position of Jiang Sujin in his heart.

This was something that no one expected, including Su Jinyue and Jiang Sujin.

Because Shen Yanfeng never consummated his marriage with her, but now he can prove her innocence in public.

Jiang Sujin was not so moved, but she admired Shen Yanfeng's wisdom. In this way, he saved the face of the Shen family.

Shen Yanfeng: "If Young Master Xiao is here to celebrate my birthday, I will naturally welcome you warmly. But if Young Master Xiao is here to sabotage me, then I, Shen Yanfeng, will naturally not be a coward."

As he spoke, he placed his big hand on Xiao Shian's shoulder and began to exert force.

Shen Yanfeng was known for his cruelty and brutality. Even though Prime Minister Xiao was in a high position and had great power, he had to be afraid of him.

After all, no matter how great your power is, it cannot withstand the strength of someone else's fist.

Now, seeing his son being threatened, his face suddenly turned pale.

"Shi'an, quickly admit your mistake to Lord Shen!" Prime Minister Xiao said as he stood between the two men.

Xiao Shian was wrong in this matter, so Prime Minister Xiao did not dare to turn against Shen Yanfeng.

Xiao Shian: "Shen... Lord Shen, I'm sorry, I'm a little drunk today."

Shen Yanfeng glanced at Xiao Shian with a dark face, and then looked at Prime Minister Xiao.

"Prime Minister Xiao, Young Master Xiao may indeed be drunk. Please go back and teach him a lesson. Don't stare at Mr. Shen's beloved wife every day."

"Otherwise, if Shen ruthlessly injures Young Master Xiao with his sword one day, it will not be a good thing."

Upon hearing this, Prime Minister Xiao naturally felt ashamed, so he took Xiao Shian away.

Upon seeing this, Duke Rong naturally hurried out and said, "Prime Minister, I will see you off."

As soon as the Prime Minister left, the banquet suddenly became silent.

Madam Shen cleared her throat, and then suddenly smiled at everyone: "Everyone, enjoy your meal."

Upon seeing this, everyone quickly echoed a few words and then continued to eat with their heads down.

Because of Shen Yanfeng's active protection, the guests' eyes looking at him suddenly became softer.

However, Jiang Sujin noticed that Shen Yanfeng's face looked very ugly, and the look he gave her was more like a knife, so she knew that she was finished this time.

Although the old lady was a little angry with her, since her grandson had proved her innocence, she naturally forgave her a little.

In addition, the eyes of the elders of the Shen family became particularly cold when they looked at her.

Su Jinyue didn't know when she left. Perhaps she was irritated by Shen Yanfeng's words just now.

After the guests left, Jiang Sujin went straight back to her Wutong Courtyard.

Shen Yanfeng, Duke Rong and others talked for a long time, and the content naturally revolved around today's events.

Duke Rong felt that Shen Yanfeng was too disrespectful to Prime Minister Xiao and was afraid that he would be retaliated against by Prime Minister Xiao in the future.

Shen Yanfeng was naturally not afraid. If the situation really worked, he could sneak into the Xiao Mansion and kill the father and son. The emperor would not hold him accountable.

Night gradually fell. Jiang Sujin had just laid down on the bed and closed her eyes when her door was kicked open from outside.

Before Jiang Sujin had time to open her eyes, Shen Yanfeng came to her bed.

"How dare you sleep?"

As he said this, he waved his hand and the door was closed again.

Then, the man grabbed Jiang Sujin's neck, and Jiang Sujin couldn't help but blush.

"Why do you think I defended you today?"

"Of course...Of course it's for the Shen family's reputation."

"Humph, you are quite self-aware."

"It's just... Xiao Shian's words today reminded me again."

"Are you innocent or not?"

Jiang Sujin: "You can send a nanny to check my body."

"No need, I will come in person."
