Reborn Young Lady's Peerless Grace

In fact, Xiao Chenyang didn't need to do this. Du Zhijie's goal was nothing more than to let Shen Wanqing's team win the game. Their goals were the same.

Xiao Chenyang naturally had no idea what Du Zhijie was thinking. He just wanted Du Zhijie to eliminate the trouble he had caused to him, the general, today, so as to avoid any unpleasantness in the future and give him an excuse to embarrass himself.

But to Xiao Chenyang's surprise, Du Zhijie's face was full of smiles, and he was even happier than if he had won the game. He didn't seem angry at all.

"Xiao Chenyang, who do you think I am?"

"I lost this match with great satisfaction."

Du Zhijie leaned on his horse's back and sighed, "You don't have to be like this. I'm very happy today. I will definitely not show mercy if I have the chance in the future."

After looking at the relieved Xiao Chenyang, his gaze drifted to Shen Wanqing, Xuanyuan Qiaoer and others. Seeing that they were talking incoherently with joy, a sincere smile appeared on his face.

"Haha, I didn't realize that Du Zhijie is such a good person!"

"Ha ha!"

Du Zhijie laughed out loud. How could he not be happy to get the recognition of his sweetheart?

"Don't worry about it, just be happy."

"All right!"

Du Zhijie smiled and shook his head, then turned his horse and said loudly, "Now that the race is over, I have official business to attend to, so I won't accompany you."

"Someday, I'll definitely go to Zuimenglou to have a good gathering and talk it over with you guys!"

He hadn't planned to come here today, but he'd rushed here after hearing that Shen Wanqing was also coming to play polo. Now that his ultimate goal had been achieved, he had to go back to work; after all, today wasn't his day off. The trick for getting someone to catch him was to give the horse a kick and spur it into a trot.

"What's that look in Xiao Chenyang's eyes? Why is he looking at him like that?"

"No, if we don't leave now we'll be exposed."

He didn't want to be seen through by Xiao Chenyang, so the horse under him ran faster and faster.

"Fourth sister, what are you thinking about?"

In the shaking carriage, Shen Wanzhu, who had been paying attention to Shen Wanqing's expression, saw that she was in a daze and smiling foolishly, so she asked curiously.

The polo match was over and the ladies all returned to their homes. Naturally, she and Shen Wanqing took a carriage to the Hou Mansion.

Shen Wanru suffered a lot of grievances, and I think she will exaggerate and report to Su after returning to the Hou Mansion.

The most important thing is that Shen Wanqing's behavior today, if nothing else, is detrimental to her reputation as a girl, but Shen Wanqing never took these insignificant things seriously.

Of course, Shen Yunlan has been very busy recently because of some accounting issues related to Shen's business, but it is hard to say about Su. Shen Wanru is her treasure, and if Shen Wanru suffers any injustice outside, she will definitely scold her.

Suddenly awakened by Shen Wanzhu's words, Shen Wanqing couldn't help feeling a little flustered.

“Nothing…nothing!”

Shen Wanqing concealed the panic on her face, then covered her slightly red face with her hands and said hesitantly: "Da... Maybe it was too hot playing polo just now, and now I want to blow the air."

"It's just a little stuffy in the carriage."

Shen Wanqing concealed her complicated emotions, stretched out her hand to pull open the curtain beside her, looked out at Yun, and deliberately changed the subject: "Third sister, you rarely leave the house, are you happy today?"

She stretched out her hand, feeling the cool breeze brought by the carriage's progress, and said to herself, "If possible, I would like to stay here forever."

"Fourth sister!"

Shen Wanzhu looked up, interrupting Shen Wanqing's fantasy.

"What's wrong with you? You've been distracted since playing polo?"

"Isn't it rumored that you and General Du were childhood sweethearts? Why are you playing polo with Xiao Chenyang today?"

"Aren't you worried that General Du might be upset?"

Shen Wanzhu's series of questions, although her tone was very gentle, but listening carefully, there was a hint of solemnity. Although she was the eldest concubine's daughter, and compared to Shen Wanqing, she had nothing to get close to, but Shen Wanzhu was sincerely thinking about her.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became quiet, with only the sound of the wheels of the carriage driving on the official road outside.

"Three sisters!"

Knowing that this was Shen Wanzhu's concern, Shen Wanqing felt a little warm in her heart, and she said softly: "I..."

"At first, I heard Sister Qiao'er wanted to win the prize, and then I saw Shen Wanru and Zhao Yurou were in a group, and Du Zhijie joined them. She became stronger when facing stronger opponents, so she became a rival of Du Zhijie."

Shen Wanqing straightened up, "Third sister, you know that apart from Qiao'er, who is my good friend, there is no other close friend in this world. That's why she wants the Night Pearl, and I want to help her win it."

"is it?"

Shen Wanzhu raised her head and looked directly into Shen Wanqing's eyes. "Fourth sister, is this really what you really mean?"

"I........"

"Okay, fourth sister."

Shen Wanzhu suddenly interrupted what Shen Wanqing was about to say, "It's your decision who you play polo with, but you know Shen Wanru's personality, right?"

"What will be the consequences of your actions today?"

Shen Wanzhu didn't mean to blame Shen Wanqing, after all, her status didn't allow her to do so. But she really cared about Shen Wanqing, so she had to remind her.

Her behavior today will cause her troubles again when she returns home.

After Shen Wanzhu said this, Shen Wanqing fell silent. However, Shen Wanzhu saw the calmness in Shen Wanqing's eyes and understood that she had made plans for returning home.

"Fourth sister, don't think that today's impact on you is insignificant. What will happen to your reputation in the future? After all, a girl's reputation is more important than anything else."

Shen Wanzhu frowned. "Even though the Marquis won't pursue the matter, Madam won't let it go. After all, you're still unmarried. Even though His Majesty has stated that you have the freedom to choose your own marriage, what wealthy family would marry a girl with such a bad reputation?"

"Could it be that Fourth Sister is really not afraid of the rumors outside?"

"Ah......."

Shen Wanqing smiled calmly upon hearing this, and then looked at the chattering person beside her and said, "Okay, I'm a good third sister. I know you're worried about me, but I'm really not afraid of those rumors."

Seeing that her cousin really cared about her, she felt warm in her heart. She knew that only someone who truly cared about her would do so.

"If these trivial matters are enough to bother me, then I will be furious to death."

"We all live for ourselves. We are not in anyone else's eyes. Why should we worry about something we are not willing to do?"

Shen Wanqing smiled freely and directly expressed her thoughts.

"What about your future marriage?"

Shen Wanzhu finally made the most crucial point.

"I know General Du is fond of you, but how can such a large general's mansion be easy to deal with?"

"Let's not talk about whether this will work out in the end, but our Marquis' Mansion is for the civil service, and the General's Mansion is for the military. It's not a good match. What's more, I heard that the old general has a hot temper. Have you really thought it through?"
