540 Agreement (1)
When they returned home from the noodle shop, Shen Yijia still found it a little unbelievable, but then she felt that this outcome was reasonable.
However, why did she feel so uncomfortable?
“Unless Xiao Qirui isn’t a member of the Xiao family in the future, it’s impossible for General Xiao to let him marry that woman. Taking a concubine is already the best outcome.” Song Jingchen knew what she was thinking and comforted her. “This outcome is good for the three of them.”
After he got off work today, he specially went to Chang’an Avenue to buy dried fruits for Shen Yijia and saw Eldest Master Yuan enter the restaurant with Earl Rong.
If he was not wrong, as soon as Xiao Qirui broke off the engagement, Earl Rong’s Residence would send a betrothal gift to the Yuan family.
Eldest Miss Yuan was a smart person. She knew what choice was best for her. That was why she said those words to Xiao Qirui tonight.
“Wouldn’t that be too unfair to Sister Yuwan?” Shen Yijia puffed up her cheeks angrily.
Song Jingchen said objectively, “This world is already harsh on women. She has no choice.”
The Yuan family’s style was just chaotic, but Earl Rong had a fetish for abusing people. Every legitimate wife of his did not have a high family background. Once they died, he would give that family some benefits and only say that they had passed away from illness.
Once Eldest Miss Yuan married into the family, it was obvious what she would experience. If she could not even keep her life, love was naturally not important.
Shen Yijia liked Yuan Yuwan, so she was still indignant for her.
She gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t encounter any danger in the future.”
This topic changed a little too quickly. Song Jingchen didn’t react for a moment. He heard Shen Yijia say, “What a coincidence. Why did the Xiao family encounter all the life-saving graces in this world?”
“Look, when Fan Mingyuan marries Xiao Ruoshui, he’ll be considered half a member of the Xiao family, right? Doesn’t he have a sister now?!”
“So, don’t get injured. Don’t give others a chance to save you.”
“What did you say?” Song Jingchen’s eyes suddenly darkened.
Shen Yijia was shocked and shrank back. “I said, don’t get injured.”
Song Jingchen’s expression turned a little ugly. “No, the first sentence.”
Shen Yijia said, “Fan Mingyuan has another sister.”
Song Jingchen held his forehead. “One more sentence.”
Shen Yijia thought for a moment. “Don’t you think it’s a coincidence that the Xiao family encountered all the life-saving graces in this world?”
Song Jingchen suddenly stood up and looked at Shen Yijia with a burning gaze.
Shen Yijia panicked a little. Did she say something wrong?
Song Jingchen didn’t explain. He turned around and walked out. “I’m going out for a while.”
“Where are you going? I’ll go with you.” Shen Yijia quickly followed.
Song Jingchen stopped in his tracks and turned around to rub her head. “It’s too late. Don’t go.”
“But there’s something I need your help with.”
Shen Yijia’s eyes lit up. “Yes?”
“I’ll borrow You Yi to help me keep an eye on Feng Manman!”
Shen Yijia thought to herself, “What kind of help is this? You Yi is going, not me.”
However, did her beautiful husband also think that there was something wrong with Feng Manman?
As expected, her husband was outstanding. He could tell the problem after seeing Feng Manman once.
If Shen Yijia had a problem with it, so did You Yi!
His mission was to protect Miss, not spy on any Tom, Dick, or Harry!
In the end, Shen Yijia submitted to Song Jingchen and stayed at home obediently. Under the threat of Shen Yijia wanting to return the goods, You Yi went down to the noodle shop.
Song Jingchen won completely.
He did not bring anyone with him. He hid in the night and went to General Xiao’s residence, pulling General Xiao out of his concubine’s bed.
“Nephew, what are you doing so late at night?” General Xiao stood under the wall of his house in his middle clothes, looking resentful.
“Uncle Xiao, if Eldest Miss Yuan suggests taking Feng Manman as a concubine for Brother Xiao, I hope you won’t refuse,” Song Jingchen said with cupped hands.
General Xiao’s eyes widened. Song Jingchen knew about Feng Manman?
Moreover, what did he mean? Did he mean that even the eldest daughter of the Yuan family knew?
That b*stard Xiao Qirui…
No, that wasn’t the point.
He shook his head. “Nephew, you don’t know, but that woman is causing a ruckus in the Xiao family now. I won’t even let her in, let alone a concubine.”
This was the truth.
He had already thought it through. If Xiao Qirui insisted on marrying that woman, he would chase him out of the Xiao family.
Instead of letting a woman destroy Xiao Qirui, it was better for him to do it himself.
The son he had painstakingly raised had to be destroyed by him personally.
Also, what was wrong with the eldest daughter of the Yuan family? Pavilion Elder Yuan had even praised her for being smart, but why did he feel that she was a little stupid?
