My beloved wife is reborn, let's get divorced, Mr. Prime Minister
Chapter 36 A strange combination of circumstances
Pei Huaiming continued with a sad face, as if Shen Tanxiang had done something terribly wrong.
"Alas, Xiang'er, I did everything for you, but you don't even know my good intentions!"
Shen Tanxiang felt very ashamed when she heard this. "I'm sorry, Second Master. I really shouldn't blame you. Second Master, please don't take it to heart."
Looking at Shen Tanxiang blaming herself, Pei Huaiming nodded with satisfaction.

Pei Huaizhi was still very busy and even had less time to go back home. Song Qingcheng sent people to deliver several sets of clothes to the government office. She had no time to take care of him the rest of the time. She spent most of her time preparing her rouge and clothing shops.
However, something did happen recently that broke the peace of the Duke's Mansion.
Because the current Prince Wing has been sending people to visit the Duke's Mansion recently, and every time he does so he brings expensive gifts, most of which are women's favorite things. They say they are for the Fourth Miss of the Duke's Mansion. The intention is self-evident. His Royal Highness Prince Wing has taken a fancy to the Fourth Miss of the Duke's Mansion.
Pei Huairu was originally imprisoned in the ancestral hall for reflection. Since she understood King Yi's intentions, Xie happily took her out as soon as possible.
At that time, Pei Huairu didn't know the reason.
When they arrived at Ninghe Hall, everyone had smiles on their faces. Although no one knew what they were thinking, they all looked happy. Mrs. Xie had swept away the gloom of the past and looked a lot gentler than usual, like an elder.
Song Qingcheng sat in the armchair.
Pei Huairu was puzzled as to why everyone was looking at her so happily. She asked in confusion, "Mom, what's going on?"
"Come on, bring them up."
After receiving Mrs. Xie's order, the servant brought up the brocade box and opened it.
Everyone gasped.
After all, it is the Duke's Mansion and has seen the world, but the brocade box contains a shining oriental pearl, so round and even, it is obvious that it is a rare and precious item.
"Fourth sister is so blessed"
Deep Sandalwood said enviously. I just thought that a few days ago, I was favored by His Royal Highness Prince Yi at the flower viewing banquet in the palace. This is a bit confusing. This is obviously a good thing, but why was I locked up when I returned to the mansion?
Grandma Wang Zhirou also took Pei Huairu's hand, and her intention to win her over became increasingly apparent, "My silly sister, you have been chosen by His Royal Highness Prince Yi. This is the greatest joyous event for our entire family."
The crown prince has no great talent, the mother of the Prince of Yan is an abandoned queen, and there are rumors that the Prince of Yan is not the biological son of the current emperor. In this way, the Prince of Yi may become the emperor in the future. By then, Pei Huairu will be either the queen or the imperial concubine, and they will be royal relatives.
Song Qingcheng had a smile on her face, but she had something in mind. Thinking back to that extremely deep face, it was obvious that he was a very scheming person. Would such a person fall in love with a girl at first sight? She was afraid that he had other intentions.
But she didn't say anything. Everyone was in high spirits, and pouring cold water on others would inevitably make people hate her, so she should just stop worrying about it.
The person involved did not look very happy.
"Mom, I don't like this King Yi, I like..."
"Shut up!"
Xie scolded, "You have a bright future ahead of you. The most important thing is to seize the opportunity. Forget about everything else. Children's marriage is a big matter. It all depends on their parents."
Shen Tanxiang thought Pei Huairu was a young girl in love, or liked some scholar, so she didn't think much of it. She just advised: "His Royal Highness the King of Wings is a handsome man, a rare talent, don't think too much about him."
“You don’t understand!”
Pei Huairu stamped her feet anxiously, covered her face and ran out of Ninghe Hall.
Mrs. Xie was so exhausted that she held the handkerchief to her chest and sat on the bed. "This evil girl is really worrying."
Second Madam Shen Tanxiang handed the teacup to Mrs. Xie, "Sister Ru is indeed a little immature. I think she doesn't understand the benefits of this marriage."
Grandma Wang Zhirou said, "His Royal Highness the Prince of Wings is making such a big fuss. Sister Ru is in the process of discussing marriage right now. If this happens, I'm afraid no one will dare to come to propose marriage. This has nothing to do with the Prince of Wings' matter. If the Prince of Wings loses interest in us, how will we deal with it?"
Xie didn't like what she heard. "What are you talking about! Who do you think His Royal Highness the King of Wings is? Is he just a woman or child like you?"
Grandma Wang Zhirou didn't mean anything else, she just expressed her worries, but she didn't expect that this would make Mrs. Xie even more unhappy.
"Sister-in-law, look at how His Royal Highness Prince Yi gave such a valuable Dongzhu to us immediately. He must really care about our sister Ru. Sister-in-law, please stop saying these disappointing words. Besides, mother has brought up our sister Ru so well, it is natural for His Royal Highness Prince Yi to see it. You make it sound as if our sister Ru doesn't deserve it."
Shen Tanxiang said with a smile. She was worried that she couldn't find any evidence against the eldest wife. Now that she had offended her mother-in-law, she was happy to see it happen. As soon as she finished speaking, Xie's face became even worse.
Wang Zhirou quickly explained, "I am also considering our sister Ru. When did I ever mean to belittle Sister Ru?"
As expected, Mrs. Xie said, "I think you, the eldest daughter-in-law, must have been too busy and confused, and your mind is not clear, so you are talking nonsense. Second daughter-in-law, you should help your eldest sister-in-law on weekdays to avoid her getting tired."
The second grandmother, Shen Tanxiang, suppressed her joy and said, "Mother, don't worry, I will definitely help my eldest sister-in-law."
Grandma Wang Zhirou was unhappy about having her power divided like this, but she had to endure it because of Xie's expression. She was really ungrateful.
Song Qingcheng happily watched the show on the side. In her previous life, Pei Huairu had no contact with Prince Yi, or she was obsessed with Prince Yan. She was thirty years old but still unmarried. Xie was so anxious that she lost her temper every few days. Her woman's intuition told her that Prince Yi was a person who would not give up until he achieved his goal. Wang Zhirou was right. Prince Yi was planning to prevent the Duke's Mansion from discussing marriage.
"Your second sister-in-law will help your eldest sister-in-law deal with all the affairs in the mansion, and you will come to serve her every day."
Xie looked at Song Qingcheng who said nothing with a fierce look on her face.
Song Qingcheng: “….”
Aren't there enough maids and old women in Ninghe Hall for her to order around? But she wants her daughter-in-law to do nothing every day and just kneel beside her to serve her. She really wants to make trouble for her all the time.
Song Qingcheng had done enough of serving others in her previous life. If Mrs. Xie was the kind of person who loved the younger generation and respected the elders, she would think it was the right thing to do. But Mrs. Xie just wanted to make trouble for her, so she would not serve her.
Song Qingcheng stood up and knelt down to pay her respects. "Please forgive me, Auntie, for not agreeing to this. I have caught a cold recently, and I am worried that I will pass the disease on to you. I am not willing to do that."
Mrs. Xie sneered. "I think you just don't want to come. What do you mean you are sick? Your face is so rosy."
