Chapter 603
"Everyone knows the truth, but it's not that easy to do it, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, I have what I want, even if..."
Chen Li didn't say anything else, but Su Wenyue understood what Chen Li meant and didn't persuade her. Even though she knew what happened to Chen Li in her previous life, Chen Li still went down that path. Her friendship with Chen Li was nothing more than that. In this case, not to mention Chen Li's persistence, her persuasion was of no use.
Chen Li was very grateful for Su Wenyue's caring and reminding words. She was not a ungrateful person, nor did she not understand what Su Wenyue said. She was just stuck in it. What could she do except continue? Don't say that she is in love with Liu Xiu. Even if she is not, there is no way out after getting on this boat. Things cannot be changed. In this era, because she is a woman, life is not easy, and her behavior is not in line with this era. Even if these people are respectful to her on the outside, on the inside they may be afraid of her, but also disdain and dislike her, even if they don't show it. It's not that Chen Li didn't feel it when she came out, but Su Wenyue's words were more or less sincere, which made Chen Li keep this feeling in her heart.
Su Wenyue didn't know that her reminder at this moment would make Chen Li feel grateful to her, which was an unexpected gain. You must know that although Chen Li was later pulled down and turned into cannon fodder, she was a very powerful existence before that. In the harem, People, even Yin Lihua has to avoid her edge.
At this moment, the protagonist also arrived. The wife of the city lord came in with the old lady on her arm. As soon as she arrived, she greeted Yin Lihua, Su Wenyue and others eagerly, with a warm and hospitable look.
As the only young lady in the city lord's palace, Liu Xinru followed the city lord's wife. She was dressed in beautiful clothes and looked like a lady. She was very proud and did not take Yin Lihua and Chen Li seriously at all.
Liu Xinru also has considerations in her heart. Since she is interested in Liu Xiu, and Yin Lihua is Liu Xiu's wife, if she behaves too well or is too condescending, people will think that she is showing weakness to Yin Lihua, which is not her. Would like to see.
Although Liu Xinru likes Liu Xiu and is optimistic about Liu Xiu's future, the dignified lady of the city lord's palace will never despise herself as a concubine, and Liu Xiu has married another wife, so the previous conflict between her and Yin Lihua is irreconcilable, so There was no need to be too friendly with Yin Lihua from the beginning.
Liu Xinru did this because Liu Wenyong's support gave her the confidence. Liu Wenyong valued Liu Xiu and felt that Liu Xiu had potential. The most effective way to win over Liu Xiu was marriage. Otherwise, Liu Xinru would not have known that Liu Xiu had a wife. And let your feelings go.
Liu Xinru didn't have a good attitude toward Yin Lihua, but it was different with Su Wenyue. Su Wenyue was Han Yu's wife, and Han Yu was Liu Xiu's trusted subordinate. Su Wenyue stood on her side, at least not offending this woman who was deeply loved by Han Yu.
"I have long heard that Mrs. Han is unparalleled in beauty and virtuous. When I saw her today, she was indeed extraordinary." Liu Xinru said with a smile. The meaning of friendship in her words was obvious. Most of the female relatives present complimented Liu Xinru in order to please the city lord's wife. Then, Su Wenyue was praised and complimented one after another.
"Thank you, Miss Liu." Su Wenyue had an elegant smile on her face. She did not feel elated or proud because of everyone's compliments and praises. If she had been the same person at that time in her previous life, she might have felt proud and superior. Looking at this scene now But she found it meaningless. People always understand after experience what is important and what is vain. These people can compliment her when she is proud, but what will happen to her face once she is down.
Su Wenyue's indifferent performance also won the favor and approval of some of the ladies present. These ladies came to the flower viewing banquet not just for fun. In addition to the face of the city lord's wife, they also wanted to collect information so that their husbands could do something. It can be used as a reference when making decisions. Sometimes the back home can also reflect many things, which cannot be seen from outside. The back home communication is also a very deep knowledge.
Peicheng is dominated by the City Lord's Mansion, but there are still various local forces entrenched in it. Although it is not as good as the City Lord's Mansion, it is still a force that cannot be underestimated. And not all of these people are of the same mind as the City Lord, so even if Liu Wenyong expressed There are also people who hold objections to his attitude towards Liu Xiu and Han Yu. Most of them are waiting and watching to see if Liu Xiu and Han Yu are worthy of their support.
Liu Xiu and Han Yu are not only famous outside, but their abilities should not be underestimated, but this is only what can be seen on the surface. The back house can also reflect many actual things. Yin Lihua and Su Wenyue’s The performance made these ladies already have plans in mind.
People who have a little understanding of the city lord's wishful thinking are all aware of it, but Liu Xiu's wife is not an ordinary person. I don't know whether the city lord can get what he wants, and he doesn't want to get involved, lest he can't get a favor and cause trouble. As for his friendship with Su Wenyue Well, I no longer have this worry.
Su Wenyue also received Han Yu's signal before coming, and most of them responded to the advances of these ladies. He paid special attention to the young ladies of the City Lord's Mansion and the ladies of several major forces in Peicheng. He also wanted to get as many useful benefits as possible. The information can give Han Yu some help.
Of course, not everyone has such an idea, and there will be some discordant voices. Just when Liu Xinru praised Su Wenyue, someone blatantly refuted Liu Xinru's words.
"Sister, I don't agree with what you said. Madam Han is indeed beautiful, but she is beautiful. The words "virtuous and virtuous" are not appropriate for Madam Han. Everyone knows that General Han's wife is jealous and has always occupied General Han. There is not even a concubine in the back house. She is a well-deserved jealous woman. How can she be worthy of the words "virtuous and virtuous"? Sister, please don't make such a joke, haha!" A woman who was also dressed brightly but dressed as a young woman said with a smile, with undisguised sarcasm in her tone.
The scene was silent, and everyone looked at this young woman. The one who didn't give face to the only legitimate daughter of the City Lord's Mansion and slapped Madam Han in the face was the second young lady of the City Lord's Mansion, Mrs. Shao.
Although Liu Xuan, the second son of the City Lord, was not a legitimate son, he was valued by the City Lord and was very good at winning people's hearts. He had great power in Peicheng and married Shao, a famous lady from Peicheng.
With a powerful husband and a strong family, Shao Shi was confident and flamboyant. Sometimes even the city lord's wife was wary of her. She was probably the only one in Peicheng who dared to say such words at this time. It was not surprising that this person was Shao Shi, but the city lord's mansion had already made its attitude, but no one knew why Shao Shi targeted Su Wenyue like this?
