Tyrannical Wang’s Beloved Wife
-
chapter-312
Jing Wan sarcastically laughed, “When the quality is not sufficient, just take advantage of quantity. A pair of twin sister younger cousins presumably won’t be inferior to a biao niece.” Really think she’s a pushover? If she doesn’t nicely return the favor, she’ll all be sorry to her current reputation.
“What does Wan Wan want to do?” Li Hong Yuan smilingly asked.
“Ah Yuan doesn’t understand?”
“En, don’t understand.” Li Hong Yuan calmly replied.
“If you don’t understand, then just go on with your own business, no need to understand. Didn’t we already agree, these matters, all handed over to me to handle? ———Someone come.”“Wangfei.”
“Go send an invitation to the Min clan’s boat, this wangfei wants to chat with the two young misses.”
The people below went to deliver the message.
“Two? Wan Wan wants to have the Min clan dragged in too? This idea is not bad. The Min clan and Pei clan are very closely related by marriage. If able to make them produce hostility towards one another, naturally it’s not bad.”
Jing Wan watched Li Hong Yuan nod, pretending to be serious. She really didn’t know what to say about him. That was the Min clan’s boat. Since they didn’t openly say there’s others on the boat, even if the intention is on the other person, you still can’t leave behind the host family, no? Since she has already indicated for it be two people, then they should know, who she really wanted to meet.
Clearly knowing this, yet once again deliberately misinterpreting, what is the meaning of this? The Min clan, although have close marriage ties with the Pei clan, still haven’t offended you yet, right? Was there a need to implicate the other party? “Ah Yuan doesn’t need to get involved. If you’re really that bored, why don’t you go swim a circle in the waters.”
“Wan Wan’s suggestion is not bad. If really bored to that degree, this husband certainly will try.”That’s why, when this man wants to follow along your words, he’s able to accept anything, and you’ll even be completely helpless towards him. The best way was to just———ignore him!
Jing Wan flung her sleeve and walked out, off to see a beauty, perhaps able to see from that beauty a bit of Imperial Noble Consort’s graceful bearing back in the day.
And in the back, on the Min clan’s boat, when they received Jing Wan’s invitation, they were also exceptionally surprised, especially since on the invitation card, it clearly specified ‘two young misses’. Was it that the other party mistakenly had them, this brother and sister pair, thought as two sisters, or…………the other party already knew there was another young lady on the boat?
“………….Should be referring to Yuan Yuan and I. Speaking of which, having me, an extra person, on the boat, yet didn’t explain clearly, is also our fault. Since already inviting, should further go beg for forgiveness.” The girl covered in a light muslin veil softly spoke. The eyes that were exposed on the outside brightly glistened as she carried a shallow smile. “Speaking of which, I also very much want to meet Jin Wangfei.” After all, in the future, they will undoubtedly become enemies. Although this wasn’t really what she wanted, but she has no other choice. Regardless whether it was for the family clan, or for herself, she will all have to fight and compete.
(T/N: I wonder if this type of confidence in their own assumptions runs in the Pei family. They all seem to like to believe their own reality without much consideration for other factors.)
Meeting right now, although was outside of expectations, it wasn’t necessarily undoable either. Under the premise where the other party was still unaware, it was easier to find out about the actual situation.
It was obvious, this young miss didn’t really believe that Jing Wan meeting her was because of having already learned their Pei clan’s plan.
After carefully dressing up, this Pei clan’s young lady, although didn’t dress formally, in the details, she nevertheless pushed to the peak. Not just for the sake of Jin Wangfei, but perhaps, might even meet Jin Qinwang. This first impression was extremely important. It can’t be too much, but also absolutely can’t have blemishes.
The Min clan’s young lady didn’t know her aim, just continuously complimenting her beauty, never once meeting a girl prettier than her before.
The Pei clan young lady just smiled and didn’t say much.
Afterwards, the two of them each brought along two servant girls and a mama, boarding Jing Wan’s boat together.
There were already servants waiting by the side, having them led up onto the third deck of the ship. Because of having ulterior motives, the Pei clan young lady naturally just took in even more and observed even more attentively, with astonishment flashing through her heart. How to put it, just as previously stated, the large influential families had the pride and cultivation of large influential families. Even if already aware where her marriage fate resides, in the depths of her bones, she still somewhat looked down on the imperial family, looking down on their taste, looking down on their background, looking down on their etiquette. Although these things, because of deliberately ignoring, made it so that even she all didn’t realize this bit, but it nevertheless all leaked out in her every word and action.
However, it was precisely because of this that when she saw that everything in the surrounding actually all exceeded her expectations, she thus felt astonished.
Going onto the third floor, everything else aside, just seeing the carpet spread on the ground, it was already somewhat difficult to set down one’s foot. Of course, as a young lady of a large influential family, she didn’t make such a small-minded move. Regardless of what she thought inside, on the surface, she continuously remained calm and composed. This was something blended into their flesh and blood, so they won’t be easily affected.
The one waiting outside the guest room was Gong mama. Seeing the two young ladies, she neither servilely nor overbearingly bowed.
The two of them subconsciously returned the etiquette. In that split second, they had the other party treated as a capable mama by their family elder’s side. That was an existence that they all needed to respect somewhat. And by the time they’d realized what they’d done, the Min clan young lady although was a bit surprised, she didn’t mind too much. No matter what, that was still a mama by a qin-wangfei’s side. This bit of respect was also expected. However, in the Pei clan young lady’s heart, she didn’t think this. Along the way, the unexpected things she saw wasn’t just one or two. That’s why, the things that she originally assumed, afraid won’t be that easy to achieve.
Gong mama faintly casted the Pei clan young lady a glance. Because of coming from the same family clan as the Imperial Noble Consort, and further because this one ‘harbored improper thoughts’, that’s why she couldn’t help but care somewhat, and naturally also had her compared with the Imperial Noble Consort. Although her face was covered, but because it was a thin muslin, it didn’t particular affect anything. However, Gong mama further paid attention to a person’s temperament and bearing. Reportedly, this one right now was the Pei clan’s most beautiful young lady. In Jiangnan, because of always having her face covered when going out, this title of number one beauty didn’t really spread out. However, her talents were nevertheless resoundingly well-known.
Others, when meeting this Miss Pei for the first time, at least nine out of ten will praise, even the people that were jealous of her can’t deny her. However, Gong mama wasn’t like so. Having the Imperial Noble Consort, this gem, in front, and with her own wangfei also possessing first class good bearing, this young miss was greatly lacking. Of course, this perhaps was the result of Gong mama being bias, but unable to compare was also the truth.
Don’t blame Gong mama for giving an ‘initial show of strength’ at the door. Don’t forget, in the beginning when learning etiquette, who she’d learned from. The things of influential families really weren’t difficult for her. Although at the time when learning, she didn’t know. In addition, she really wasn’t an actual ordinary middle age woman of the inner manor. She still hasn’t released her true might, else for these girls, very few would be able to stand still.
After entering the door, they paid their respect without lacking the slightest in etiquette, yet one could still clearly sense that there wasn’t much respect.
Jing Wan just smiled, declining to comment, causally waving her hand, “Have a seat.”
Jing Wan openly studied them. Their gaze also landed on Jing Wan. Although it wasn’t that direct, it was still bold and calm, not concealing in the slightest.
