Chapter 333 She Doesn't Get It

us wound.Zhang's eyes were red and swollen as she rushed over to hug her son. She asked anxiously, "My child, what happened to you Your eyes are purple and swollen. Are you hurt" She reached out to to...Over there, Shen Yunzhou also noticed the person opposite him. Seeing Princess Jingning talking to her friends, his eyes kept glancing over here, and his face didn't seem very good either.

He unconsciously glanced at his cousin Jiang Qiyun beside him, lost in thought, and then looked back at Princess Jingning.

Jiang Qiyun also noticed her cousin's strangeness. She followed her cousin's gaze and saw a young woman across the way, disdainfully telling something to the matron beside her.

She curiously asked, "Cousin, do you know that girl across the way"

Shen Yunzhou nodded: "Nice to meet you."

Jiang Qiyun pondered for a moment, then very understandingly said, "Cousin, do you need me to explain"

Shen Yunzhou gently shook his head: "No need, you go find your cousin first, I'll be there in a while."

Jiang Qiyun nodded upon hearing this, and she noticed the girl across from her was also looking at her. She gave a gentle nod and revealed a warm and friendly smile.

However, Princess Jingning naturally noticed that the person opposite her had discovered her, but she didn't mean to greet them. She sighed with her friend, saying that this girl was like a flower stuck in cow dung, and just as she was about to leave, she saw the girl smile at her.

Quiet Ning County Lord dumbfounded: ""

Never met before, first time seeing each other, not even a greeting, why smile at her

Meng Jin Yao saw the situation, feeling that the atmosphere was a bit awkward. To avoid embarrassment for her friend, she whispered, "Ayan, let's go. Let's find a restaurant for lunch."

"Jingning County Princess" hummed softly, just about to leave when she saw the girl depart. Then Shen Yunzhou walked over towards them, his target clear; he was definitely coming for them.

She couldn't figure out the other person's background, but she wasn't one to back down. She said, "Ayo, let's wait a while. Let me take care of this guy first.

Meng Jin Yao nodded and replied, "Good."

In a short while, Shen Yunzhou arrived before them. Seeing one of them on guard and the other smiling gently, he smiled and greeted them: "Princess, Madam Gu, I saw you both looking at me just now. Is there anything I can help you with"

Princess Jingning let out a light snort: “Don't flatter yourself so much, we weren't looking at you. We just saw that young lady over there was quite beautiful, so we looked at her a few times more." She paused, then added, "Oh, and by the way, congratulations to you.

Shen Yunzhou raised an eyebrow. "County Princess, I don't know where your joy comes from"

Quiet Ning, the county princess, raised a smile: “Young Master Shen, it seems like good things are coming soon. That girl looks gentle and kind, she must be a good girl. It's just her eyes don't seem to work well, actually falling for you.

"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yunzhou gave her a strange look and smiled, "Indeed, she is a kind and gentle girl, but Princess, please don't speak carelessly, or else my future brother-in-law will be worried."

Jingning County Princess was a little dazed: "Cousin-in-law"

Shen Yunzhou said calmly, "The one just now is my great-aunt's niece. Her mother is grieving the loss of her son. My uncle and aunt are too busy to come and visit, so they let my niece and nephew come to Beijing to visit and console their grandmother. They also wanted to see how well her fiance, who is taking the Spring Examination this year, did. Fortunately, my future brother-in-law performed well, passing the examination and preparing for the Palace Examination."

As soon as these words were spoken, Princess Jingning remembered Shen Yunzhou's stepmother. She was originally the youngest daughter of the family. Her elder sister had passed away, leaving behind a son, and she married her brother-in-law as a replacement wife. The Jiang family probably thought that since they were related by blood, an aunt becoming a stepmother wouldn't treat Shen Yunzhou harshly. Besides, the Shen Guogong's family was extremely influential, so being a replacement wife wasn't too humiliating. They therefore married Mrs. Shen over.

Only Shen Fu's, the biological aunt, seems not to be a good stepmother. The death of Second Master Shen and Shen Yunzhou's previous near-death experience followed by concealing the fact that he had already returned to Beijing prove there is a feud between him, his stepmother, and younger brother.

Since the young lady earlier was the cousin of Shen Yunzhou's great-uncle, she is therefore Mrs. Shen's niece. As a niece visiting her elders in the capital, she also took the opportunity to learn if her fiancé had passed the imperial examinations.

Wait a minute, that cousin of yours is already engaged She's taken

Quietly Ning County Lord didn't know how, she inexplicably felt her mood was subtle. Perhaps it was because she hadn't found a husband, and neither had Shen Yunzhou. Both of them being alone, she lightly coughed to relieve the awkwardness: "Just now I spoke out of turn. I thought Young Master Shen was about to have good news, I said so, which one didn't have eyes to choose you as someone who is stingy"

At his words, Shen Yunzhou looked at her with a strange expression and said faintly, "I'd also like to know who would be so unlucky in the future as to marry me."

Jing Ning County Master said, “If you weren't foolish, you wouldn't have met with such bad luck. It's your own fault! You've actually gained from this misfortune." She paused, not wanting to argue further with Shen Yunzhou. Turning to Meng Jin Yao, she said, "Ai Yao, let's go."

Shen Yunzhou said, "Lady Jun, please take care. Madam Gu, please take care."

After Princess Jingning had already taken her first steps, Meng Jinyao smiled meaningfully and said something cryptic: "As a man, Young Master Shen walks rather slowly."

Shen Yunzhou was stunned for a moment, then quickly understood the meaning behind her words. He looked at her in surprise. He hadn't done anything, yet she had seen through him. He couldn't help but admire her. As the wife of the Dali Temple Minister, she indeed had some insight. He replied softly, "Wood doesn't open its mind."

Meng Jinyu replied softly, "You've gone to so much trouble."

Jing Ning County Princess listened to their conversation, feeling inexplicably bewildered. She turned her head and said to Meng Jin Yao, “A Yao, why do you care if he walks fast or slow Even if he walks like a woman, it has nothing to do with us.”

Meng Jin Yao chuckled, "It's nothing, I just think that Prince Shen can walk a little faster. If he doesn't walk quickly, if he walks with more enthusiasm, his speed will pick up."

Hearing this, Jingning County Princess glanced at Shen Yunzhou: "A young master like him, who rides a carriage when he goes out and never walks unless he has to, is so precious."

Shen Yunzhou replied in a soft voice, "A few days ago, I got some excellent wood. I will send it to the County Princess on another day as a thank you for saving me last time."

Jingning County Princess's lips twitched, she said incredulously, "Shen Yunzhou, did you get hit on the head Sending a piece of wood as a gift"

Shen Yunzhou said, "I think that piece of wood would match the county princess well. It should make a beautiful wooden carving, just like the county princess herself."

Jing Ning County Master's anger rose instantly, her face turned dark as she glared at him, indignant: "Shen Yunzhou, you actually said that this County Master is a match for a piece of wood What kind of eyes do you have I should have known you were blind from the start, otherwise I wouldn't have bothered with you. As a man, you are afraid of dogs, and even more so, you are a well-behaved dog hiding behind a woman. Don't you think it's embarrassing I am ashamed for you!"

Shen Yunzhou, despite being exposed, showed no annoyance but instead admired and said: "The county princess is mighty, I deeply admire you."

Jing Ning County Lord: "..." Suddenly, there was a feeling of punching cotton.

Meng Jinyao listened to their conversation, a smile deepening on her face. As expected, he was dense as wood, not realizing she could hear him even when speaking directly in front of her. If she told him plainly now, with his current attitude, he would most likely avoid the topic.ss Jingning affectionately called her "Ayu," but now she coldly addresses her as "Miss Meng Er," instantly widening the distance between them.Meng Jin's expression froze, then she turned to look at hi...
