Princess Zhenjing only knew that Song Tianbao had a married sister, and she really didn't know the inside story of Song Yanzhi's marriage.

After hearing what Song Yanzhi said, she was slightly stunned. It turned out that this was the reason why her husband didn't want to mention his sister-in-law.

My husband has always been gentle and kind, a man as beautiful as jade. How could he do the things that Song Yanzhi said?

"My aunt is capable now, so it's understandable that she doesn't want to acknowledge your brother. Why does she have to slander your brother and your parents?"

She and her husband have been married for six years. Although she has not met her parents-in-law, her husband says that they are both extremely kind people.

"My princess is a golden phoenix born into a wealthy family. How could she know the hardships of a peasant girl? If you don't want to believe me, then don't believe me. Our two families will have no further contact from now on. My princess, please go back!"

Song Yanzhi didn't want to argue with Princess Zhenjing. What she said was all true. However, Princess Zhenjing had been with Song Tianbao for a longer time, so it was natural for her not to believe what she said. She didn't want to explain any more.

Princess Zhenjing was happy to visit the Han family, but she was very angry when she left. As soon as she left the courtyard, she spat at the Han family's gate.

"Bah, it's like a tiger in plain land being bullied by a dog. He doesn't even know what he is and shows off in front of her."

She swore that she would never set foot in the Han family again in her life.

When Song Tianbao returned home from the government office in the evening, she started to make a fuss with a bad face.

"My husband, what's wrong with your sister? She doesn't even take me, her sister-in-law, seriously."

Song Tianbao was in the yamen today and had already been bullied by his colleagues. When he came back and saw that Princess Zhenjing was about to make trouble with him again, his face turned bad.

"Have you been to the Han residence today? Who asked you to go?"

After arriving in Beijing, he received a letter from his parents and knew that Song Yanzhi disliked them.

That year, he went to Beijing to take the imperial examination. His parents wanted to give him some extra money for the journey, fearing that he would suffer from lack of money while away from home, so they sold his sister.

He felt guilty at the time. After he won the third place in the imperial examination, he immediately sent money back to his parents and asked them to redeem his sister. It was his sister who didn't want to go home, and now she blames them. How could this be logical?

He felt that he had done his best for his sister, and it was also a knot in her heart, but he always thought it was just girlish pretentiousness and didn't take it seriously.

Hearing that his sister had come to the capital, he just casually mentioned it to the princess, but he didn't expect the princess to come to him.

"How can I not go? What's the situation in our family now? You know it's because of you that I came here to do that disgusting thing."

Princess Zhenjing felt aggrieved.

Song Tianbao thought of his wife, a princess, and how he had to be humble in front of her sister. He softened his heart a little, hugged Princess Zhenjing in his arms, and patted her shoulder soothingly.

"It was me who wronged the princess. It's your husband's fault."

Song Tianbao is good-looking, and his apology instantly made Princess Zhenjing feel much more comfortable.

"I heard from your sister that she sold him to send you to Beijing to take the imperial examination."

Seeing that Song Tianbao was willing to coax her, Princess Zhenjing became arrogant again and spoke without any scruples. She asked Song Tianbao what Song Yanzhi had told her.

"Nonsense! When she got married, she simply asked for a larger betrothal gift. At the time, I was preparing for the imperial examination in Beijing, so her parents didn't give her much as a dowry. So, are you feeling resentful?"

The dowry is not too much?

Song Tianbao is really good at talking.

The dowry is not much, so how much is it?

There was no dowry at all at that time.

How can a daughter who is sold be given a dowry?

"I was saying that a gentleman like my husband and gentle and honest farmers like my parents would never do the things my aunt said. It turns out that my aunt slandered you because of the dowry."

Princess Zhenjing learned the truth about the self-righteous matter from Song Tianbao, and her impression of Song Yanzhi became even worse.

When he went out to attend the banquet again, some bad rumors about Song Yanzhi spread.

Song Yanzhi naturally didn't know about these words, she was almost going crazy with busyness.

Since Han Heming took up his post in the Ministry of War, he has been extremely busy, leaving home early and returning late. Many times, Song Yanzhi could not see him. When he came back, Song Yanzhi was asleep, and when he left, Song Yanzhi was still asleep.

When Han Hewu was busy, all the household affairs fell on Song Yanzhi.

The eldest, second and third child are all old enough to go to school.

For example, Da Wa has already passed the examination and become a scholar. If he wants to become an official through the imperial examination, he still needs to look for an academy and a teacher to teach him.

Erwa also passed the Tongsheng examination and needed to go to a higher college to study.

The third child needs enlightenment.

In this unfamiliar capital city, Song Yanzhi sent her family's servants to inquire around the capital.

This is a new house. Although it has been cleaned up by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I still have to slowly change the living style and my taste.

Song Yanzhi was busy in the mansion all day and had no idea what was being spread about her outside.

She doesn't know, but someone knows.

So, he came to her house angrily.

"When did you become so good-tempered? Even when someone said that, you didn't fight back."

Shen Wanwan put her hands on her hips and walked up to the Han family's gate.

"How did you come?"

Song Yanzhi looked at her unfriendly. She was a person who clearly distinguished between love and hate. Shen Huanjun ordered people to set fire to their entire family. She didn't believe that her daughter Shen Wanwan didn't know about it.

"This is my senior brother's home, why can't I come?"

Shen Wanwan was even more arrogant than Song Yanzhi. She put her hands on her hips, her chest puffed out high, and looked like Song Yanzhi was being unreasonable.

Seeing Shen Wanwan's self-righteous look, Song Yanzhi became suspicious. Doesn't she know what her father did to the Han family?

"Where were you and your husband when our houses burned down?"

Song Yanzhi stared at Shen Wanwan without blinking, she didn't want to miss any expression on her face.

"We left, and Father sent people to look for you, but they couldn't find you. Where did you go?"

Shen Wanwan looked at Song Yanzhi with confusion.

Song Yanzhi saw that the expression on Shen Wanwan's face did not seem fake.

She sighed.

"come in."

After Shen Wanwan was invited to sit down in the hall, she couldn't stand her impatience any longer.

She took a sip of tea and slammed the table.

"Hey, I'm asking you a question. There are so many bad things being said about you out there, why don't you react at all? Are you still the Song Yanzhi I know?"

"Oh, what did you hear about me outside?"

Song Yanzhi also took a sip of tea and asked casually, "She's been staying at home all these days, so how could she know what's been spread around the capital?"
