Quick Wear: I'm Really Not a Scumbag

When Chen Xuyan and Xie Baiyu arrived, quite a few people had already arrived, and it seemed that everyone had reached a consensus.

"Brother Cui is here too." Doesn't Cui Lingxue really like to attend these banquets? Why do I see him every time these times?

"Yes, the weather is nice, let's go out for a walk." Cui Lingxue smiled.

Although the weather was indeed very good, he did not wear any less clothes and they still looked much thicker than others.

"The top scholar is here too."

"You're welcome." Xie Baiyu also returned the greeting.

At this point, Chen Xuyan also started to greet many people, and Xie Baiyu sat quietly not far from Chen Xuyan and drank tea.

It's really not easy to be a son of a noble family. Brother Chen has already chatted with many people at this time.

But it was just the opposite on Mr. Cui's side. Except for the first two words he said to Chen Xuyan, everyone else seemed to be stopped by the people around him. An open space formed around him, and he just stood there quietly basking in the sun.

Xie Baiyu thought to himself, this Cui Lingxue is really a strange person. But if we talk about strangeness, Brother Chen is the stranger one. Let's eat. He didn't have time to eat more in the carriage just now, but Brother Chen was full.

"The top scholar is here!"

"Finally I found you. Do you still want to write? We have quite a few people who want it."

Xie Baiyu naturally pretended to be reserved. He seemed to think for a while, then said, "Okay."

The Wang family was related to the Chen family, so naturally Chen Xusheng came this time, but his expression wasn't very good. Before leaving, Chen Xingjian harshly criticized him. He had been locked up in the ancestral hall for a long time, without seeing the light, and his face looked a little haggard. He was also accompanied by two people sent by Chen Xingjian.

Mrs. Chen was also smiling brightly at this moment. The Wang family was currently in the limelight, and of course she was also benefiting from it. The Wang family had been accompanying her all the way. They also made things difficult for her, really not feeling tired.

At this time, Wang Chufen was chatting and laughing with her sister-in-law, and the people below were naturally praising her. Everyone knew that Concubine Wang was pregnant, and the imperial physician had confirmed that it was a boy.

There are many variables in this matter. Although there is already a prince, who knows whether he can ascend to the throne? Everyone knows about the Wang family's wolfish ambitions, but no one dares to say anything. After all, the other major families are all calm, and these little people naturally dare not express their dissatisfaction.

"Don't worry, we'll send someone to the palace to carefully guard this baby after a while. This is the hope of our Wang family." Wang's sister-in-law looked very proud. Although she was just a concubine's daughter, her pregnancy was indeed promising. When her daughter was completely favored, she would make arrangements during her delivery. By getting rid of the mother and keeping the child, her daughter would have the child effortlessly, and she could use her beauty to further enhance her favor, without having to experience the pain of childbirth. It was a three-pronged approach.

Wang Chufen nodded. It seemed that she was overthinking it. Her brother and sister-in-law had already thought of everything.

"I have a thousand-year-old ginseng here. I'll send someone to deliver it to you when the time comes." This thing can save your life at critical moments.

Wang's sister-in-law patted her hands. Although she was a daughter who married out, she was still the legitimate daughter of the family. Naturally, she would always think of herself. She and her husband agreed with this. "You are so thoughtful. When the child is born, come with me to the palace to see it."

Wang Chufen was naturally overjoyed. "This is what I should do. This child will be our Wang family's own child when it is born."

This made Mrs. Wang very happy.

Seeing her very satisfied look, Wang Chufen naturally couldn't help but express her own thoughts, "I wonder what your sister-in-law thinks about the marriage between Man'er and my daughter."

Mrs. Wang immediately withdrew her hand. "Sister, you know the situation in the court is unstable right now. Your brother hasn't considered his marriage yet, but your daughter can't put it off any longer. A man's marriage can be postponed, after all, a good man has ambitions. But a girl's marriage can't be delayed. If she gets too picky, it will be hard to find a partner."

"But, you once said..."

"No buts. You are already married, so naturally you can't interfere in the affairs of the Wang family. If your brother knew about this, he would definitely blame me." Mrs. Wang naturally regretted what she had said before, that her cousin was a perfect match for her.

My family is no ordinary aristocratic family now, so my son naturally cannot marry a daughter of the Chen family. However, my family's concubines can consider Chen Xuyan, after all, he will be the head of the Chen family in the future.

"My concubine daughters are quite good. Why don't you find one for your concubine son?" Her expression became warm again.

Wang Chufen had thought about this before, but she still couldn't forget the gloomy faces of the master and the old lady. "Sister-in-law, you know, I can't make the decision on Chen Xuyan's marriage. The old lady and the head of the family won't agree."

"You are the mistress, how can you be the master of a bastard?" She looked at Wang Chufen with suspicion.

Wang Chufen knew the other party was playing dumb, but she couldn't refute it. "This is not for me to decide."

"What if we just decide on it?"

Wang Chufen's expression finally turned grim. "Then is the Wang family willing to take back a divorced person?"

Mrs. Wang couldn't say anything else. "No, no, no, I'm telling you, if you make trouble in the Chen family and get divorced, even if your brother agrees, I will never let you enter the Wang family again. Since you've married into the Chen family, you belong to them, whether you're a human or a ghost. You have nothing to do with us. This huge Wang family has so many daughters waiting to get married. We can't let you bring them down."

"Don't blame my sister-in-law. You know I'm straightforward and can't hide my words. These are all the truth." After saying that, she turned around and left with her daughters.

After searching for a long time, Chen Xusheng finally saw his mother in the Wang family's garden. Her expression was not right, so Chen Xusheng hurried over.

"Mother, what's wrong with you?"

Wang Chufen could no longer hide the sadness she had been suppressing. "It turns out that everything was a lie to me. I was the outsider."

Chen Xusheng's mind worked quickly, "I've told you a long time ago that my cousin looks down on me. His attitude towards me is not even as good as Chen Xuyan's."

"It's a pity that I have planned so much for them in vain over the years."

Chen Xusheng couldn't help but sneer. She treated her cousin better than herself, and she didn't see her cousin being very polite to her. "Mother, please don't cry. It would be bad if someone saw you."

"What do you think about your sister and your younger sister's marriage?" Wang Chufen was really angry.

"Don't worry, grandma and father won't ignore it."

"What do you know! The Wang family is different. It's really good to marry into the Wang family. Nowhere else can compare to this place." Wang Chufen quickly cheered up.

Chen Xusheng shook her head. It seemed that what she had just said was in vain. Her idea was already deeply rooted.
