Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 464.3: Need to Nip the Peach Blossoms

The ones that stayed till the end were for the most part those that were the closest with Jing Wan.

Because of being limited by status, the ones that were unable to speak with Jing Wan previously, this while, were able to say a few words.

Seeing Jing Wan’s mood somewhat peculiar, they naturally needed to ask.

Jing Wan was very helpless, “What else can it be, one’s own husband is too attractive, attracting bees and butterflies, the peach blossoms blooming all over.”

Sun Yi Jia and Yuan Qiao Qiao both covered their mouth and laughed.

“Hey, enough, how can you be like this.” Jing Wan just felt her hands itchy, watching to pinch them.

“Is this not Jin Qinwang’s problem? What are you worried about? Whether he refuses or accepts, it’s all a matter of one line from him. When that time comes, you can just decide on what to do then.” Sun Yi Jia said very boldly.

Jing Wan softly laughed, “This matter, actually, will just have one outcome.”

“Just judging from your expression, one can already tell what the outcome will be, then what else is there to say, purely just worrying over nothing.” Sun Yi Jia elegantly rolled her eyes at Jing Wan.

Yuan Qiao Qiao also mischievously laughed, “That’s right, listen to cousin-in-law. After all, cousin-in-law is very experienced in this aspect.”

Indeed, the peach blossoms outside that bloomed for Luo Jing Bo, in terms of quality, perhaps can’t compare with Li Hong Yuan, but the amount definitely far surpassed. Every time going out, he would always encounter a bit of situation. Moreover, without the living Enma’s destructive power, those people can be said as simply having no way of putting to an end. Towards this kind of thing, Sun Yi Jia has long become indifferent, even specially preparing a chest, letting her husband have the things that would always ‘accidentally get left behind’ on him and unable to find the original owner brought back, needless to secretly deal with. Right now, the chest was almost full.

Towards this kind of thing Sun Yi Jia was quite used to. Even those that directly look for her, she was all able to skillfully handle.

This matter, Jing Wan didn’t care very much to begin with, and right now, those gloomy feelings had all disappeared without a trace. However, she still inwardly warned herself that in front of a certain someone, she must act very angry and mind very much, or else based on a certain someone’s personality, perhaps he will just think that she doesn’t care about him again, and afterwards, ‘extinguish’ her in seconds. As for keeping from him and not letting him know, it was obvious this wasn’t realistic. She can keep from him, but the people outside will also vigorously squeeze before him.

When they more or less finished talking, the Grand Elder Princess and Luo Old Madam finally came over. Sun Yi Jia and Yuan Qiao Qiao hurriedly greeted.

The Grand Elder Princess nodded, lifting her hand, “All rise.” Her gaze stopped on Sun Yi Jia for a moment, “Yi Jia right now appears to be pretty good, compared to the past, a lot more spirited.”

Sun Yi Jia smiled, “Grand Elder Princess’s words are correct, this commoner’s wife right now is indeed quite well.”

“That’s good. In the future, just think about properly living out one’s days. The rest, no need to think too much.”

“Yes.”

The Grand Elder Princess’s gaze landed on Jing Wan again, “Already know?”

Jing Wan smiled, nodding, “Yes.”

“Don’t have any thoughts?” The Grand Elder Princess carried a bit of interest as she teased Jing Wan.

“Thoughts, don’t really have any, just, them having delusions about my husband, the one that should be angry should be me, right? Yet, each and every one act like I’ve stolen their husband, treating me like a vixen. No matter how one thinks about it, it’s all a bit strange, right? Or could it be that I’m already unable to keep up with their way of thinking? Thinking about it now, that feeling is just like them all wearing new clothes, while I’m still wearing the ones from three years ago.” Jing Wan said with a laugh.

The others also laughed along with her. The Grand Elder Princess tapped Jing Wan’s forehead through the air, “Just you that’s mischievous.”

“You’re an outsider, while they’re locals of the capital, so it’s precisely you ‘stealing’ from them.” Sun Yi Jia sarcastically said.

“To forcibly insist when not existing in one’s life, those people have all dug themselves into a pit. Those that are truly clear-headed won’t do this kind of stupid thing. Just watch, those that were discontent to begin with, after going back today, certainly will be even more discontent. They always need to suffer before finally understanding the severity. These people are rather irrelevant, just fearing those families that dearly love their own daughter and will directly beg before imperial brother. Hong Yuan’s rear court just has you alone, so if they really go before imperial brother, afraid imperial brother won’t refuse.” The Grand Elder Princess warned.

“Don’t worry adoptive mother, imperial father won’t refuse, but the premise is that wangye has to agree. What kind of person is wangye, we all know. If he doesn’t agree, then even if imperial father sends the person over, he similarly will reject outside the door.”

Seeing Jing Wan this certain and confident, the Grand Elder Princess seemingly understood something, “Perhaps this is just your fortune.”

Jing Wan smiled, but didn’t say anything more. In her heart, she felt, perhaps it really was the heavens greatly favoring her. Of course, some day in the future, when Jing Wan learns the truth of everything, she probably won’t feel this way anymore. Her good fortune wasn’t because of the heavens, but rather because of him.

(T/N: I actually really love this last line, although I love stories that have the whole characters vs fate conflict, especially given that in this , supernatural forces are very real.)

“Fine, as long as you have an understanding inside. I’ll also be going back first.”

Afterwards, Yu Yao, who has been lacking in spirit ever since the little tiger cub died, got brought over by the servants.

“Yu Yao, adoptive mother has already agreed to let you raise the little tigers and little lions. Why don’t you directly take back with you?”

However, Yu Yao shook her head, “Cousin-in-law, I can’t raise. The little tiger was looked after by me for that little while, yet met with mishap, so I might not be able to raise well. I don’t want other little tigers and little lions to meet with mishap too.”

Jing Wan rubbed her head, “This wasn’t Yu Yao’s fault, and it wasn’t because Yu Yao didn’t take care of well. I believe that Yu Yao definitely will be able to raise well. Moreover, by having them raised in the Grand Elder Princess Manor, today’s matter definitely won’t happen again.”

Yu Yao somewhat hesitated, “Then, can I come pick up some time later?”

This was worrying that seeing them will remind her of the one that died? “No can do, getting raised by me for a period of them, they will become familiar with my scent. If Yu Yao were to then take them back, they won’t become familiar with you, and it will be very difficult for them to be intimate with Yu Yao.”

“Why don’t you take them back, mother will help raise together with you.” The Grand Elder Princess also didn’t wish for her daughter to be submerged in sorrow. Although it was very possible that she will ‘think of when seeing’, but having something to do, dividing the attention, the sorrow will pass by quicker.

As such, Yu Yao no longer hesitated. Just, unexpectedly, in the end, she also took the little tiger cub’s corpse with her.

After sending away the Grand Elder Princess, the ones that remained, aside from Yuan Qiao Qiao, the rest were all members of the Luo family.

On the male guests’ side, whether or not there were still people, Jing Wan also didn’t need to go question, because the Luo family can’t stay for too long either, so Jing Wan naturally took the time to learn about the Luo Manor’s situation.

Firstly, her shu younger sister’s marriage for the most part has already been settled. It was precisely Xie Ren Hui. As for the other younger sisters, their age was still far from enough, and by the time they are ready to discuss marriage, perhaps the current state of affairs will have already settled. Thus, they will have even better options. Of the brothers and sisters in this generation, the first branch’s second son, ranked fourth, shu-born, was the same age as Jing Wan, just a little younger than Jing Wan. This year, he was also sixteen, but as a boy, even if waiting until twenty to discuss marriage, it also wasn’t a problem, even though, because the Luo family’s current market value was good, quite a few people wanted to have the person tied down, just the Luo family was firm with their decision.

Afterwards, she also learned that little Wang-shi was once again pregnant, having being diagnosed not long ago. Her eldest tang brother, as well as the people of the first branch, were all very happy. Jing Wan however wasn’t that optimistic. Mainly, it was still because they were di related cousins that married, thus Jing Wan worried that the child will be unwell. However, in the end, it was still a happy matter, so Jing Wan couldn’t splash cold water. Just, she seamlessly had the conversation steered towards the third branch.

Luo Rong Ping was already paralyzed, and can only lie on the bed for the rest of his life. Liu-shi right now was relatively tranquil and at peace, and relatively mindful towards taking care of him. Luo Rong Ping also finally accepted reality, no longer throwing tantrums, so much better than when he initially became paralyzed.

Afterwards, it was just Luo Jing Ying. Alright, right now, it was Luo Si Ying. Tomorrow will be her sixteenth birthday. Just, it was ‘the young lantern before the ancient buddha statue^[1]‘.

Since she herself was unwilling to walk out of it, it was also something that can’t be helped. However, judging from Liu-shi’s expression, presumably things have gotten better.

When Li Hong Yuan came over, the Luo family also perceptively took their leave.

Towards a certain someone that ‘drove away’ her maiden family, Jing Wan had a bit of complaint, gloomily staring at him. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novelenglish.net . Fire(.)nᴇt

“What, is there something you want to say to this husband?” Li Hong Yuan seductively smiled at Jing Wan.

Just, this smile not only didn’t seduce Jing Wan, it instead made Jing Wan immediately wake up, her expression appearing increasingly annoyed, even reaching out to jab Li Hong Yuan’s chest, “Say, what are you seducing unmarried young ladies and married young madams for all day?” Jing Wan inwardly praised her own quick-wittedness.

Just, Li Hong Yuan’s gaze somewhat suspiciously studied her, “What does this mean? When did that happen?”

“You would not know?” Jing Wan ‘resentment’ grew deeper.

“En, once Wan Wan explains clearly to this husband, this husband will know.” Li Hong Yuan calmly held her hand.

Afterwards, Jing Wan ‘angrily’ complained about his peach blossoms outside.

Li Hong Yuan didn’t get affected by her emotions. In contrast, he rather engrossingly watched her expression on her face. When Jing Wan finished, he reached out and pinched her face, “Wan Wan, do you know, in front of this husband, you’re rather bad at acting.”

Jing Wan’s expression cracked a little. She believed that her acting skills have always been pretty good.
