Born a phoenix? The husband I picked up is the young emperor

Chapter 1375

The New Year celebrations in the Marquis’ Mansion cannot be too lively.

During the mourning period, people do not post Spring Festival couplets, set off firecrackers, or go out to pay New Year's greetings. No one is allowed to wear too bright clothes.

Shi Chengyi and his wife took their children, as well as their aunt Dingxiang and concubine Shi Zhiyu, back to the Marquis's Mansion.

When they arrived, everyone from the other rooms was already there.

Yu Sujun looked around and frowned, "Hey, isn't Sister Chujun coming today?"

Wei Cailing sighed, "Mother said that she is divorced and shouldn't come to the Marquis' Mansion for the New Year reunion. No matter how much she persuades her, she won't come."

The mistress of the third room, You Wanshuang, said, "How can that be possible? If Sister Chu Jun doesn't come, what's the point of celebrating the New Year?"

Yu Sujun glanced at You Wanshuang and said angrily, "Why are you calling Chujun sister?"

You Wanshuang smiled, "Sister-in-law, you can shout, but I can't?"

Yu Sujun raised her chin and said, "Sister Chujun and I have always been close. We have been together since we were little."

You Wanshuang was angry with her and whispered, "Sister Chu Jun has been very close to me this year."

Wang Kexiang, the mistress of the fourth house, also came over and said, "How close is she? Sister Chujun came to our house in person yesterday to bring food to Mian'er. Hehe, Mian'er really likes her."

Yu Sujun was very angry, "So you all got together with Sister Chujun behind my back?"

Wang Kexiang also spoke sourly, "What's so strange about us being together? Hey, it's strange that all the concubines in the second room are together with Sister Chu Jun! Tsk, I've never seen those concubines stick to the mistress before. Now she's not the mistress anymore, but they're getting closer. You haven't seen how passionate they are!"

Yu Sujun was so upset that she was heartbroken. "How did you know?"

Wang Kexiang boasted openly, "We were together yesterday."

Yu Sujun gritted her teeth and lifted her sleeves, "You guys are trying to snatch Sister Chujun from me while I'm busy at home, right?"

You Wanshuang and Wang Kexiang bowed together, "Sister-in-law is here, we dare not, hahaha..."

Yu Sujun couldn't hold it back and laughed, "Tsk! It's been less than a year and you two have become much more lively. Before, I couldn't even feel your presence in the mansion. Come on, let's go and invite Sister Chujun and Sister Yaosheng. What's the point of the New Year's reunion without them?"

The three daughters-in-law whispered to each other, "Anyway, the annoying second uncle is not at home, so it won't be awkward at all."

So, the wives in the several rooms laughed and made a fuss, and dragged Tang Chujun and Yao Sheng back to the Marquis' Mansion.

This is the advantage of living close by, it’s just a few steps away.

Yu Sujun clapped her hands and asked in front of everyone, "Sister Chujun, are you and I the best friends in the world?" After asking, she looked at You Wanshuang and Wang Kexiang who were laughing.

Tang Chujun looked at her helplessly, "You are so old, why are you still making such a fuss?"

"You have to ask clearly no matter how old you are!" Yu Sujun refused, "You don't know, my third and fourth sister-in-law both scolded me! I can't swallow this!"

You Wanshuang begged for mercy, "I was wrong, I was wrong. Hehe, Sister-in-law and Sister Chujun are the best, none of us can surpass you."

Wang Kexiang also smiled and shook Yu Sujun, "No way, no way! No way at all!"

Yu Sujun then smiled warmly, took one hand of Tang Chujun and the other of Yao Sheng, and led You Wanshuang and Wang Kexiang into Zhengqing Garden.

There was no longer the melancholy between her brows and eyes as when she was with her husband, only the innocence and naivety that she had when she was young and competing for favor.

Even Shi Chengyi who was far away was stunned. Only then did he truly believe that Yu Sujun's earlier calmness was not due to any strong emotions.

For a moment, he couldn't tell what he felt. It seemed that his wife didn't care about him as much as he thought.

After this realization, he felt a little confused.

"Brother?" Shi Chengyun asked, "Isn't that right?"

"Ah?" Shi Chengyi didn't hear Shi Chengyun's question clearly.

Shi Chengyun repeated the question again. Shi Chengyi frowned and answered, but he couldn't help but look at his wife Yu Sujun again.
