Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Song Jingshen remembered that Song Ruozhen had told her that barbecue may seem simple, but in fact, every barbecue restaurant tastes different.

There are specific requirements for how long to bake each type of food and what temperature to use. Of course, how to marinate it is also a secret. My fifth sister spent a lot of time at home researching this.

Not to mention that some of the seasonings were specially ordered by his fifth sister to be bought from other places, and he had never tasted them before.

Song Biyun's idea that she could learn the essence just by looking at it is undoubtedly a pipe dream.

"Their shop was open as usual today, but business was not good; hardly anyone went in."

Miss Song did come by today and is still inside, but Young Master Shen's injuries are probably too severe, so he won't be making an appearance.

The shopkeeper made a point of investigating these matters early this morning. There have been far too many people in the capital trying to copy their shop lately, but the young master didn't get too involved.

After all, this kind of thing isn't something that only one store can sell, and other stores can't. It's just that they need to manage the people in their own stores well and not leave anyone with disloyal intentions.

Across from her, Song Biyun was also stealing glances at the Song family's shop. Seeing that it was already packed with people even before it opened, and was now even more popular, she unconsciously clenched her fists.

"Damn Song Ruozhen, she's clearly targeting me on purpose!"

She put in so much effort to open this shop with Shen Huai'an, and now, there's absolutely no business!

If this news gets back, she'll become a complete laughingstock!

Most importantly, because of what happened yesterday, Huai'an is also angry with her and blames her for the reason why the princess dislikes him. It's really hateful!

At this moment, she suddenly noticed that Prince Yun had gone to see Song Jingshen, and she felt even more annoyed. They were both from the Song family, but they had risen to great heights, while her family was now... without a glimmer of hope!

"Your Highness Prince Yun, with your presence, would you like to try some barbecue?"

When Song Jingshen saw Chu Yun return, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but a smile appeared on his face.

Looking at the bustling scene in the shop, Chu Yungui couldn't help but admire the Song family's exceptional business acumen.

If it weren't for the Song family elders' decision to go to the battlefield to gain fame and fortune, the Song family's business would probably be even more impressive now. However, once a business reaches a certain level but lacks the support of power, it becomes a piece of meat in everyone's eyes.

It must be said that the Song family elders made a very clever move.

"Since it's our opening day, we naturally have to try it." Chu Yungui smiled faintly, then asked, "I heard that something happened to Mu Yao here yesterday. How did it go?"

Ever since he learned that Mu Yao liked Shen Huai'an, he had specifically sent someone to investigate the matter.

That guy was clearly no good; he was obviously trying to scam Mu Yao. I never expected to find out what happened at Shen's Barbecue yesterday. It seems like things have fallen through.

Song Jingshen was slightly taken aback, not expecting that Chu Yungui had come for this matter, but upon closer thought, he felt it was only right.

“Shen Huai’an and Song Biyun have an unusual relationship. He must have wanted to curry favor with the princess. However, the princess happened to see his true colors yesterday, so he received twenty strokes of the cane, and the matter is considered settled,” Song Jingshen replied.

Upon hearing this, Chu Yungui chuckled, "I originally thought I would have to handle this personally, but I didn't expect it to be resolved so easily. It seems that Shen Huai'an isn't very capable!"

Song Jingshen remained noncommittal. Shen Huai'an was indeed a fool. If it were anyone else, they would naturally seize such an opportunity. But he still had the mind to flirt with other women. Not to mention rising to the top in one step, he had completely ruined all his future opportunities.

As expected, Chu Yungui's face turned cold. "What's the use of just twenty strokes? Mu Yao went too far!"

“Go and investigate this matter thoroughly. I suspect this was a conspiracy from the beginning. If it turns out to be true, send him to jail.”

"What kind of dream is it to comfortably recover at home?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After explaining the matter, Chu Yungui smiled and said, "This matter hasn't reached my third brother yet, otherwise Shen Huai'an would be dead by now."

Song Jingshen thought about Chu Junting's consistent style of doing things, and Shen Huai'an would definitely have no way out in front of him.

"Actually, I came here today to learn from you," Chu Yungui said solemnly.

He originally came to ask Song Jingshen how to arrange things for the Lantern Festival so that his sister-in-law would like it more, after all, he was her older brother and would know something about it.

However, after making up his mind to marry Gu Huan'er, he felt that he also needed to make some preparations.

When Gu Huan'er mentioned this matter before, she was clearly very envious. Since he was planning to marry the girl, he naturally couldn't let her suffer any grievances.

Song Jingshen was completely bewildered. "What does Your Highness wish to learn from me?"

"You have a lot of experience in pursuing girls, and everyone in the capital praises you for it. The Lantern Festival is just around the corner, and Your Majesty wants to give your sister-in-law a memorable experience."

Song Jingshen: "..." Is this person making fun of him?

Everyone knew about the outrageous things he did in the capital, but he was always chasing after a girl and in the end he didn't even win her over, though he left behind a lot of laughs.

But the next moment, he realized, "You mean His Highness Prince Chu wants to give my sister a surprise? But I remember he seemed to have told my father before that if Her Majesty the Empress didn't agree..."

"The Empress Dowager has already agreed, and now she hopes they can get married soon," Chu Yungui said.

"I see, then there's something to it."

Song Jingshen immediately perked up; his own sister deserved the most romantic ceremony.

However, just as the two were talking, a beautiful figure stopped in front of them.

Song Jingshen looked at the girl in front of him, who was wearing a long yellow dress and a yellow mink cloak, and was looking at him aggressively...the person next to him.

"Who is this girl?"

Song Jingshen looked at Chu Yungui suspiciously. The girl seemed to be here to settle accounts. Could it be that the Prince of Yun owed her a debt of love?

King Yun looked at Wang Xue in front of him with the same puzzled expression. What was this woman doing here looking for him out of the blue?

"Your Highness, I am Huan'er's good friend, Wang Xue."

Wang Xue looked serious, her fair face seemingly forced to maintain her composure, and she exuded a determination to live for her friends.

"I came to see Your Highness today because of Huan'er."

Chu Yungui raised an eyebrow, looking at the woman before him, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. "You might as well speak frankly."

"Huan'er has always admired the prince, and the prince must be aware of this. I have advised Huan'er many times, and now she has finally come to her senses and chosen to give up."

Yuan Qing is Huan'er's childhood sweetheart, and the Xu family has already proposed marriage to the Gu family. Therefore, I dare to implore Your Highness, if you do not like Huan'er, please do not interfere with her any further.
