Yu Wan was surprised to hear such a sentence out of the blue.

Looking into Yunxi's expectant, bright eyes, she couldn't bring herself to utter the white lie.

He could only lower his head shyly and mumble, "You're too young to concern yourself with adult matters."

Yunxi immediately expressed her dissatisfaction, "Sister-in-law, I am already fifteen years old, long past my coming-of-age ceremony, and I am no longer a child."

Yu Wan raised her hand and tapped her forehead. "As long as you're not married, you're still a young girl. Don't meddle in adult matters."

Yunxi reached up to cover her forehead where she had been hit, feigning pain and groaning, "Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

Yu Wan suddenly felt a little nervous.

Yunxi is very fragile.

"Did it hurt you? Maybe I hit you too hard. I rubbed it for you."

Seeing how nervous she was, Yunxi immediately snuggled into her arms, laughing so hard she almost fell over, completely disregarding her image.

Yu Wan then realized she had been tricked, and helplessly tapped her head a few more times, saying, "It hurts so much."

Yunxi was overjoyed.

In the courtyard, Madam Shen nudged her son's hand and whispered, "It's been a long time since I've seen your sister so happy, hasn't it?"

Madam Shen smiled and said, "It's strange, even though Yu Niang didn't do anything, Xi'er is very happy when she's with her, and she laughs and jokes like a healthy little girl."

She breathed a sigh of relief. "So, someone should cherish her. You can't find such a good daughter-in-law even with a lantern."

Yun Shang looked at Yu Wan, who was playing with Yun Xi under the corridor, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes.

He increasingly felt that Yu Wan possessed a magical charm, as if simply being with her could infect him with her happiness and open-mindedness.

She was injured and nearly died several times, but she always rallied immediately. Looking at her happy appearance now, you would never guess that she almost died a few days ago.

"Mm," he said softly, "I'll listen to Mother."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen's eyes crinkled with laughter.

She reached out and patted Yunshang's shoulder, her face full of relief. "My son has grown up. Now he listens to his mother's advice."

Yun Shang said helplessly, "Mother, when have I ever not listened to your advice?"

Madam Shen glared at him. "How many times have I advised you to treat Yu Niang better over the years? When have you ever listened?"

“It’s different,” Yun Shang said calmly. “Don’t you think Yu Wan has changed a lot? She’s very different from the person she used to be.”

Shen didn't take it to heart. "People change. As they grow up, they naturally become more mature. No one is perfect. Who can do everything perfectly?"

Yun Shang was surprised that Madam Shen thought this way, and said, "Mother is right, I was narrow-minded."

The mother and son chatted happily, but on the other side, Wang Wanshu, who noticed that Yunxi and Yu Wan were having a lively conversation, became angry and her face darkened.

"I knew she did it on purpose!" She glared angrily at Yunxi. "I condescended to speak to her out of kindness and even gave her this priceless jade bracelet as a gift, but she ignored me?"

"Yet they treat the few plum blossom cakes that the Yu family gave them as treasures. How much are those plum blossom cakes worth?!"

Qiaobi was afraid that she would get too excited and do something impulsive, so she could only whisper to comfort her, "Princess, I heard that Yunxi has been bedridden for many years due to poor health and has never left Shijia Village. Such a person is shallow-minded, so please don't take her seriously."

Wang Wanshu was still furious and gritted her teeth, saying, "You country bumpkin who's never seen anything good before is mistaking fish eyes for treasures."

Qiaobi responded with a wry smile.

She looked around and felt embarrassed when she saw that no members of the Yun family had come to entertain her princess.

Unable to resist, she whispered, "Princess, most of the guests at the Yun family today are uncouth country bumpkins. Shall we go back for now? We can come again when we have time next time."

Wang Wanshu immediately shook her head, "No."

She looked at Qiaobi and said seriously, "Find a way to call Yunshang over to me alone. I want to talk to him."

Qiaobi immediately looked troubled.

Yun Shang's dislike for his princess was quite obvious. Today, he was busy entertaining guests and it was impossible for him to have a private chat with the princess.

but……

If the princess fails to achieve her goal, she probably won't leave the Yun family easily.

Qiaobi sighed inwardly a few times and agreed, "This servant will go and give it a try."

Wang Wanshu couldn't wait, "Go quickly, go quickly."

"I'll wait for you in the backyard."

The backyard she mentioned was an open space behind the main house, where flowers and plants could be grown, but Madam Shen and Yunxi both wanted to grow some vegetables, so they had the servants turn the soil over.

It rained yesterday, and it's all muddy and slippery right now.

Wang Wanshu finally found a clean place to stay and waited expectantly for Yun Shang to arrive.

She didn't know how long she waited before she saw Qiaobi appear with the person she was looking forward to.

As the figure in red drew closer, Wang Wanshu found Yun Shang's red attire increasingly jarring.

Yun Shang did not like red clothes.

Even when they got married in their previous life, Yun Shang did not wear a wedding dress.

But today, at what was just a small housewarming party, he actually wore red.

Wang Wanshu was consumed by jealousy and barely managed to suppress the surging emotions within her.

Yun Shang stopped five steps away from her, and said calmly, "What can I do for you, Princess?"

Hearing his distant and indifferent tone, Wang Wanshu felt as if her heart was being torn apart, and couldn't help but complain, "Do you have to be so cold to me?"

Yun Shang said, "I am not familiar with the princess. I have always treated outsiders this way."

"I am busy with many things at home today and may not be able to attend to the Princess. If the Princess feels that I have not been able to entertain you properly, please leave as soon as possible."

Wang Wanshu didn't understand the obvious order to leave.

She looked at Yun Shang expectantly, "I don't need anyone else to entertain me, just keep me company and talk to me."

Yun Shang felt a sense of disgust.

If it weren't for Wang Wanshu's maidservant's excuse that "if he doesn't come, the princess might cause a scene at the housewarming banquet," he definitely wouldn't have made this trip.

Now I feel that even saying a single word to this princess is too much.

He turned around and wanted to leave.

Since she refuses to leave, then let someone "invite" her to leave.

Unexpectedly, when Wang Wanshu saw that he wanted to leave, she rushed up and grabbed his wrist.

Yun Shang has always disliked being touched by women.

Therefore, even after being married to Yu Wan for many years, he had never shown her any affection, except in these recent times...

However, his acceptance of Yu Wan does not mean he is not opposed to other women.

Almost instinctively, Yun Shang forcefully shook off Wang Wanshu's hand.

Wang Wanshu didn't expect Yun Shang to shake her off so forcefully. She was already unsteady, and when he threw her off, she slipped and landed hard on her bottom in the mud.

Qiaobi was startled, "Princess!"

She anxiously tried to help Wang Wanshu, but Wang Wanshu brushed her aside.

Wang Wanshu stared at Yun Shang, her voice choked with sobs as she accused him, "Yun Shang! How could you do this to me?!"

"you can not do that!"

"I should be your wife. Yu Wan should have died long ago. You love me!"

"We'll have a lovely child, and you even named him Nianxi. Have you forgotten all of that?!"
