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

“What do I have to worry about? I’ve known my cousin for many years, and he’s known my character for a long time.”

As for what outsiders think of me, I don't care at all. This is perfect; it saves me from having other people come to my house to propose marriage, and I'll have no choice but to accept.

Yun Nianchu looked radiant, clearly not taking the matter to heart.

"Ruozhen, I really don't know my cousin's feelings now. You know that the reason I went back to visit my family last time was because I confessed my feelings to my cousin after I got drunk."

But he didn't respond at all, as if he had never treated me as a woman, even though he had always been very good to me.

I don't believe it's just because he's nice to his sister.

Yun Nianchu sighed deeply, looking like a young girl troubled by love.

"If you want to know, why don't you just find an opportunity to try?" Song Ruozhen retorted.

Yun Chunian asked curiously, "How do we try it?"

"If he has feelings for you, he cannot accept you being with other young men. If he has no reaction to this, it is clear that there is no romantic relationship between you."

Song Ruozhen smiled slightly, noting that Yun Chengze hadn't shown much interest in the original novel.

No matter how Yun Nianchu expressed her feelings, he remained aloof and ascetic, never giving any response.

However, there is one interesting point.

The original owner died less than a year after her marriage, while Yun Nianchu refused the marriage arranged by her family because she was always thinking about Yun Chengze.

Yun Chengze is clearly older than Yun Nianchu and should have been married long ago, but he hasn't gotten married yet, and that's the problem.

“You’re right, but if I really do that, won’t my cousin think that everything I said before was a lie?”

What if he doubts my feelings for him?

Yun Nianchu's face was almost scrunched up, not knowing what to do.

Seeing this, Song Ruozhen understood why Yun Nianchu had been chasing him for so long without succeeding.

The reason she and the original owner could become such close friends was undoubtedly because they were kindred spirits, each gentle and graceful, without a trace of scheming.

"I'm letting you meet the young master, not getting engaged to him, so how can I doubt your sincerity?"

"As long as it's done in the right way, it might even have a surprising effect," Song Ruozhen said with a light laugh.

As if she had made up her mind, Yun Nianchu clapped her hands and said, "Then let's do it this way. However, the imperial examination is just around the corner, so let's not distract my cousin recently. I hope he can be selected."

Song Ruozhen couldn't help but think of her second brother; he was sure he would pass the imperial examination with flying colors this spring!

However, just as the two were having a pleasant conversation, they suddenly heard a commotion outside.

"Sister-in-law, you finally came back, but instead of visiting my brother, you went to the accounting office to take money?"

Song Zhiyu looked dissatisfied. He had never liked his sister-in-law's snobbish attitude, but now that she was his sister-in-law, he had no choice but to accept it.

During this period, my sister-in-law has become increasingly demanding, constantly asking the family for money. Moreover, after learning that my brother-in-law's legs are disabled, she is determined to return to her parents' home.

No matter how much her mother tried to persuade her to stay, she wouldn't listen. Now that she's finally back, she's only here to collect money again.

Upon hearing this, Song Ruozhen knew that her mean and snobbish sister-in-law had returned, and a cold glint appeared in her eyes.

She almost forgot about her heartless, brother-supporting sister-in-law.

“I am your elder brother’s wife. It is only right that he supports me. Now I’m just coming back to collect some money. What’s wrong with that?”

Fan Siying spoke with righteous indignation, and her gaze toward Song Zhiyu was filled with anger. Even her mother-in-law hadn't said anything to her, yet her younger brother was coming to point fingers.

"You took a lot of silver with you when you left, and now, in such a short time, you've spent it all?"

Song Zhiyu couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. Before Fan Siying left, she had a quarrel with her mother and withdrew a lot of money from the accounting office.

When my older brother had his accident, the family was already in chaos. My mother didn't have the mind to argue with him, so she let it go, as long as she didn't divorce my older brother and make him feel hopeless.

During this period of time, my sister-in-law has not come back even once, nor has she inquired about my brother's situation.

"How can such a small amount of silver be enough?"

Fan Siying counted the silver notes in her hand, "I heard that Song Ruozhen has spent so much money in just two short years at the Marquis's mansion!"

She's just a daughter; a married daughter is like water spilled from a bowl—if you can be so willing to give her up, then what about your elder brother, the legitimate son? Does he expect his monthly expenses to be less than hers?"

"It seems my sister-in-law is quite dissatisfied with me?"

Song Ruozhen stepped out and looked at Fan Siying in front of her, her clear eyes flashing with a cold light.

In the book, Fan Siying is a mean and snobbish woman with a gambling-addicted younger brother. After marrying Song Yanzhou, she caused chaos and unrest in the mansion.

In fact, Song Yanzhou already had a childhood sweetheart, and they were just waiting for the right time to get engaged.

Who would have thought that Fan Siying would take a liking to Song Yanzhou at first sight? Seeing that he not only came from a good family, but was also handsome and capable, she used tricks to slander Song Yanzhou for taking liberties with her.

Song Yanzhou vehemently refuted her claims, but Fan Siying bribed people to testify on her behalf, leaving Song Yanzhou speechless and ultimately with no choice but to marry her.

Not long after their marriage, the elder brother went to the battlefield with their father, while Fan Siying, relying on her status, asked Liu Ruyan for money every day, all in order to go back and help her younger brother pay off his gambling debts.

Those vampire-like relatives not only begged for money every time they came, but also brought up the incident of Song Yanzhou's indecent behavior in the past, and would often mention divorce.

Liu Ruyan didn't want Song Yanzhou to be distracted on the battlefield, so she could only give her money to keep her from causing trouble.

Who would have thought that after learning that Song Yanzhou was disabled in both legs, Fan Siying completely changed her attitude, stopped pretending, and even declared that Song Yanzhou, who was disabled in both legs, was not good enough for her.

She packed her things and went back to her parents' home that very day.

Therefore, Song Ruozhen has only met this amazing sister-in-law for the first time since she transmigrated into the book.

Fan Siying was surprised that Song Ruozhen would hear these words. She was stunned for a moment, and a hint of unease flashed across her face, but she quickly calmed down.

Fifth sister, that's not what I meant.

Anyway, the Song family is very wealthy and powerful. I haven't told you how you spend your money. I'm only taking my share now, so you can't blame me, can you?"

Song Ruozhen scoffed, "What do you mean by 'your share'? What share do you have in our family?"

"What are you saying? I'm your sister-in-law!" Fan Siying's expression changed, and she said sternly.

Song Ruozhen nodded, "Yes, you are my sister-in-law. My older brother is at home, but you never go to see him. You go straight to the accounting office as soon as you get back. Do you even remember that you are my sister-in-law?"

"I know your elder brother is injured, so I just wanted to take some money to buy him some tonics."

Fan Siying looked at the silver in her hand, feeling quite dissatisfied. "Why is there only this much? Didn't I hear that the Lin family is going to pay back the money?"

"It seems that although my sister-in-law has been away from the manor these days, she is very familiar with everything that is happening there, especially when it comes to money."

"Of course, as a woman, it is natural to manage the household. Fifth sister, if you ask me, you are not young anymore and should focus your attention on your marriage. Why don't you leave the management of the household to me?"
