Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife

Chapter 195: Wan Yuan, Guest

Li Hong Yuan also didn’t say anything anymore, watching Luo Pei Shan personally make the tea. And from time to time, he would even turn around and mutter a few words to Jing Wan, carrying a somewhat content and relaxing feeling. Moreover, from beginning to end, he carried a gentle and light smile the whole time. No matter who saw, all would be able to tell, that was happiness coming from the bottom of his heart. And Jing Wan, perhaps receiving his influence, also appeared carefree and content, brimming with smiles, her eyes seemingly even glistening. Between them, there seemingly was no way for another person to squeeze in.

When Luo Jing Bo slowly arrived together with Sun Yi Jia, what they saw was precisely this kind of scene.

The couple both couldn’t help blanking, glancing to one another.

“Could it be that Jin Qinwang’s ‘extreme pampering’ from the rumors was precisely this? Even little sis is all able to have such attitude towards him, no wonder it was rumored that those women in the end all struggle between life and death.” Luo Jing Bo rather lamentably said.

Sun Yi Jia speechlessly looked to him. What kind of eyesight do you have, coming up with such a stupid conclusion. That’s a prince, a qinwang. Just those women in the past, it’s not like he couldn’t obtain, and further not like he wanted to obtain the other party’s heart. To be able to let him put down his status and deliberately cater to the other party? Keep dreaming! This clearly was just treating little sister Wan alone this way. Moreover, to be able to create that kind of exclusive two person world, and even not let little sister Wan detect, Jin Qinwang really was painstakingly meticulous.

Sun Yi Jia felt, for the time being, she should be able to feel more reassured towards little sister Wan’s days in the future. Then, glancing at this one next to her, this husband of hers, towards the feelings between man and woman, he was actually just a lump of elm wood. However, Sun Yi Jia won’t complain about him not understanding romance. This was the so-called ‘nobody is perfect’, having flaws was better and more realistic. Towards this husband of hers, she couldn’t be more satisfied.

Their arrival naturally shattered the direct atmosphere between Jing Wan and Li Hong Yuan.

Luo Jing Bo kept feeling that the gaze of soon-to-be brother-in-law of his was somewhat cold. As for Sun Yi Jia, she directly ignored him. It was still some time until the wedding, so to just start abducting her little sister-in-law now, and even in front of their faces, really treating them as blind? To not have the maiden family taken seriously this much, even if you’re a descendent of the imperial family, it still won’t do.

Towards their appearance, Luo Pei Shan was rather delighted. As for why, even he himself was unable to explain clearly. He just kept feeling that the atmosphere just now was too strange, even feeling he, this rotten old man, was excessive, and if he were to continue staying, he’ll get struck by lightening. But now, with two more people present, that feeling just disappeared. Thus, he was able to continue focusing on making tea.

Getting disturbed, Li Hong Yuan actually wasn’t that angry, having an on and off conversation with Luo Pei Shan, commenting a few words on his tea skills. Clearly it was just a very common saying, but coming from Li Hong Yuan’s mouth, it seemingly just felt especially pleasant to hear. Didn’t one see that previously he was still a bit in a strange mood, but this while, Luo Pei Shan was happily laughing. That really was feeling content.

Jing Wan glanced to Li Hong Yuan in astonishment. Towards Li Hong Yuan’s temperament, she still understood that tiny bit. Someone that would unhesitantly retort Le Cheng Emperor actually being able to say such praising words really was quite incredible.

Li Hong Yuan lifted his brows and smiled at her. Under normal circumstances, if he really wanted to win someone’s favor, then for the most part, it was impossible to fail.

Jing Wan helplessly laughed. Alright, for a certain person to do this, it was still because of her. On this bit, she felt quite grateful.

For a married woman, if their maiden family and their husband’s family aren’t harmonious, getting pressed in the middle will definitely be very uncomfortable, for example, her older sister-in-law, Sun Yi Jia. Actually, for her, it was still considered good. After all, their family has never troubled her before. But if because of her mother, they were to take their anger out on her, or even hate her, then her days will become very difficult.

Thus, Jing Wan half-secretly used her mouth to mouth him ‘thank you’.

Li Hong Yuan smiled, yet carried a bit of mischievousness. Wanting to brush him off with just a thank you won’t do.

Jing Wan inwardly rolled her eyes at him. Wanting a reward from her just like this, too classless.

Whether or not one had class wasn’t important, getting benefits was the most dependable.

Drinking the new type of wild tea, the flavor was mellow and rich, and after carefully tasting, there was a bit of slight bitterness, but soon after, having a sweet aftertaste, persisting for quite some time. It really was very good. However, because Sun Yi Jia was pregnant, she very regrettably couldn’t have a taste. By the time she will be able to drink it, with just this small amount of tea leaves, even the remaining residue won’t seen.

“Grandfather, how about giving it a name?” Jing Wan said.

“This tea was picked by wangye, so it’s more appropriate for wangye to name it.”

“Yuan Wan.” Li Hong Yuan blurted out.

The others were still thinking what this meant. Why did it sound so strange?

Jing Wan however uncontrollably blushed, glaring at Li Hong Yuan, “Wangye, what nonsense are you saying.”

Alright, no need to ask, they already knew what this meant. However, they all pretended to not understand.

Li Hong Yuan smiled without restraint, “If not, Wan Yuan also works.”

“Wangye——” Having her name placed in front of his, this was planning on letting her be buried in gossip and slander again? No, probably won’t just be gossips. Those traditionalist will all come out to denounce her, getting criticized to the point of having ‘cuts and bruises all over’, even his Majesty will all want to denounce her.

“Alright, pretend I didn’t say then.”

Thus, it was just brushed off, but they didn’t mention naming the tea again either.

Before they even finished drinking this cup of tea, Luo Old Madam just brought some people along, bringing in quite a few desserts, smelling very delicious. Prior to coming out, Li Hong Yuan didn’t eat much, so this while, he actually felt quite hungry, his appetite also returning. As such, he ate quite a bit.

“Wangye didn’t use the afternoon meal?” Under normal circumstances, no one would eat desserts like a meal. After all, these things, in this (social) layer of theirs, was truly very common, moreover Li Hong Yuan was someone who used things that were even better than his old man.

“Didn’t have an appetite, so didn’t eat much.” Li Hong Yuan glanced at Jing Wan, the so-called ‘a feast for the eyes’, he personally experienced.

Probably because his gaze was too obvious, Jing Wan unconsciously blushed, avoiding his line of sight.

“Then, this subject will let the kitchen prepare some food for wangye?” Luo Old Madam suggested without batting an eye.

“Just a bowl of simple noodles is enough.” Li Hong Yuan didn’t refuse.

“Wangye please wait.” Luo Old Madam turned and ordered the servants.

The servants hurriedly left.

“Our family has a chef that’s very skilled in noodle dishes, was brought over from Qi’an Fu.” Jing Wan said with a smile.

“Oh? Then this prince needs to properly have a taste.”

Jing Wan nodded, “Wangye perhaps will like.”

“Will know once tasted.” It’s not like it was personally made by his wife, so Li Hong Yuan naturally won’t say something similar to ‘definitely will be good’ before eating.

“You also need to properly practice your cooking skills too.” Luo Old Madam pointed out to the side.

Jing Wan speechlessly glanced at her own grandmother. You shouldn’t disclose someone’s shortcomings like this. Besides, her cooking skills not being good, wasn’t it still because of your indulgence, saying something like an upper class young lady doesn’t need to learn these. Regardless whether it’s prior to marrying or after, one will all have chefs, and just need to know the cooking method for some dishes. When time comes, going to the kitchen in the husband’s family, just need to watch from the side and move one’s mouth, that was also considered personally ‘cooking’. Yet now she was saying for her to properly practice, what did this mean?

Jing Wan probably just felt somewhat embarrassed getting her shortcomings disclosed, but Li Hong Yuan understood, these words were actually said for him to hear. “The qinwang manor has ten to twenty chefs, excelling in almost anything, otherwise it’s just asking for an imperial chef from imperial father. Where is there still the need for wangfei to personally go to the kitchen. With Jing Wan this delicate, and the kitchen messy, what if by chance she were to get hurt? So this matter of cooking skill, old madam doesn’t need to ask too much of Jing Wan, also the same with needlework, something that will injure the eyes and injure the hands.”

“Then, in the future, wangye will just have to pardon her more.” Luo Old Madam said, her expression showing that she was very satisfied.

No matter how oblivious of a person, they would still realize what Luo Old Madam’s intentions were. And besides, Jing Wan was never a slow and oblivious person. This clearly was telling Li Hong Yuan, want to let her granddaughter cook? Don’t even think about it. Fortunately, a certain someone was perceptive. If he were to say something unpleasant, then that would be awkward. However, this kind of thing, can’t you two just talk it out in private, how can you just say it in front of her face? However, speaking of which, seemingly no family’s young miss would personally receive their fiancee. That’s why, it was all because of this privileged status, if he wanted to see her, her family naturally didn’t dare block. ————-Someone that didn’t act according to the rules really was too troublesome. However, little did she know, this matter was actually ‘mutually agreed upon’, and not just a certain person’s forceful power.

“I’ll go see if the noodle is ready or not.” Jing Wan somewhat restlessly got up, and without waiting for their response, just directly left, very much ‘lacking in manners’. However, who let her be the one that they all cupped in their palm, so no one would mind.

Seeing Jing Wan leave, Sun Yi Jia also got up and asked to be excused. She originally was at most just coming to give her greetings, and because Jing Wan was present, she thus stayed a little longer.

Just, not long after the two of them left, the servant came to report, saying Rui Qinwang had sent someone over.

To meet or not? The Luo family’s masters had their gaze casted towards Li Hong Yuan. Reasonably speaking, this was Luo family’s own matter, and wasn’t really Li Hong Yuan’s place to comment, but that one and this one’s relationship was rather peculiar. The people of the Luo family were also fed up with Rui Qinwang, and actually quite wanted to borrow this demon king’s hand to have the other party refused outside the gates.

“Have the person called in, there’s this prince for all things.”

The ‘person’ that dug away their family’s lustrous white cabbage naturally won’t get a good face from them, just this person was really good at handling things.

Rui Qinwang had sent a mama, so without a doubt, this should concern the rear court. This mama wasn’t anyone else, but precisely the one that came to the Luo family last time to take away Luo Jing Ying, the one that was highly regarded by Li Hong Ming.

Liu mama probably never thought that Jin Qinwang would also be present, hurriedly bowing to him. Facing others, including Noble Consort Su, she was all able to be easy going and calm, but when facing Li Hong Yuan, she was instead somewhat fearful and could only try her best to be calm.

“What did Li Hong Ming let you come to the Luo family for?” Li Hong Yuan directly called out his elder brother’s name. It can be seen, he wasn’t the least bit polite at all.

“Replying to wangye, master let this servant come bring good news, the Luo family’s Concubine Ying is pregnant.”

“Concubine Ying?” Li Hong Yuan fell silent momentarily, “If this prince remembers correctly, should’ve just been a month, right? Already getting pregnant this soon?”

“That’s why it’s said that Concubine Ying is one with good fortune. Although the time still short, it’s still nine out of ten certain.”

In the beginning when Jing Wan and them suspected that Luo Jing Ying got pregnant on the first try, the others similarly thought this. That’s why, what exactly happened here, everyone was all aware. Just, isn’t Li Hong Ming a little too impatient, unable to wait, even if just waiting another ten days to half a month?
