Chapter 185.2
Seeing Jin Wang’s pensiveness as he listened, she became extremely anxious. She took out a handkerchief from her sleeve, covered her face and began to cry.
“Even though my elder brother isn’t someone outstanding and acts like he has no shame, he actually cares a lot about his face. He refuses to beg others for help. He would rather starve to death than ask for help... With his flamboyant temper, he offended many people, especially when he was young. Later, when he dropped out of his studies and began to work, people always mocked him for it and often gossiped about him. His eventual good-for-nothing behaviour had a lot to do with this...
“I haven’t seen him beg for help ever since I grew up. The last time he begged for help ... It was to take me away, and this is the second time. I also know that this sounds a little outrageous, but seeing him so haggard, with injuries on his body, as he came over to the manor to beg for help, my heart aches as if it had been cut by a knife...”
There was no sound of movement from Jin Wang. Yaoniang couldn’t help but sneak a look at him from under the handkerchief. Seeing Jin Wang’s cold face, she hurriedly covered her face and continued crying even more sadly.
“Now that they have left Linyun County, he has completely changed. He changed a lot from his previous self, and even outsiders can tell he worked hard to improve himself. I genuinely don’t mind what kind of person he marries as long as she wins his heart, is good to the three children, and treats my parents well...”
Jin Wang pulled her over, “Is it such a big deal to make you cry so hard? “
As soon as Jin Wang said this, Yaoniang felt that this matter could be discussed. She pushed the boat along the way by leaning into his arms, lowering her head and wiping her tears with a handkerchief. Acting shy, she said, “I’m fine.”
“You’re crying like this and you’re still fine?” Jin Wang wanted to tilt her chin up to look at her, but she refused to raise her head. She buried deeper into his arms, wrapped her arms around his waist, and asked in a low voice, “Then, do you agree Your Highness?” “
“How do you know that maid is good or bad and that you can rest assured she would be a good sister-in-law?”
“Since Your Highness picked her, she must be good.” If she had ulterior motives, she would have hooked up with her elder brother long ago. How would she be willing to redeem her freedom and go home? Yaoniang clearly understood this much.
However, she was still a little worried, so she asked “What is that girl like?” “
Jin Wang rested his chin lightly on top of her head and looked at her meaningfully. “She is a sensible person. According to Fucheng, your mother and your three nephews all like her very much.”
“Then Your Highness, do you agree?”
Jin Wang snorted.
Crying like this, how could he not agree?
She even dared to use this kind of method on him. Wait and see how he would deal with her in the future! But as for now, forget it. After all...
“Wasn’t it that day when Zhu-shi said there was a maid who seduced my older brother, causing a huge commotion in the manor? I remember that maid was called Lancao.”
“Really?”
“Yes, I heard it from Hong Chou. Isn’t it such a coincidence... Hold on, what are you doing...” Yaoniang realized that at some point, her hand had been placed somewhere it shouldn’t be and it was now being held to rub a certain spot.
Since it was the summer, he was dressed in a thin layer. The material of his clothes was light, so what was being held under her hand was particularly obvious.
Yaoniang stared at her little hand under Jin Wang’s palm, and Jin Wang narrowed his eyes with a serious expression on his face. If one were to only look at his face, no one looked more serious than Jin Wang. With an air of aloof superiority, he appeared infallible, except for the fact that the corners of his eyes were a little red.
“It’s broad daylight. Do you have no shame?”
Jin Wang licked his lips as usual and glanced at her slowly. “You’re the one rubbing against me. What do you mean I have no shame?”
At this time, there was a commotion in the yard. It was Xiaobao who came back from the palace.
Xiaobao entered the yard and went straight to the main room.
Yaoniang hurriedly pushed Jin Wang away, straightened her hair and clothes, and sat upright.
“Mother, I’m back.” Before the person could even be seen, the voice sounded first. Seeing Jin Wang, Xiaobao hurriedly greeted him, “Father.”
Jin Wang, who was pushed to the side, sat up straight and nodded to his son. But his eyes glanced at Yaoniang inadvertently, and Yaoniang immediately understood the look in his eyes- I will settle accounts with you at night.
Mini-theatre:
Fucheng: I’m the one always carrying the blackened pot. No need to thank me.
Xiaobao: I didn’t mean to think of anything bad. I also want a younger sister.
Erbao: If we have a younger sister, I’d also get to be the smart older brother.
Mian Mian: Brothers, wait! Once you’re older, you will have a younger sister, hehe...
