C118 (1/2)
This palace feast was still as boring as Sun Jinzi could remember. Only when she was tired to the point that she couldn't even open her eyes, did it finally end, and Sun Jinzi heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, nothing big happened tonight, or else she would have felt that her heart wouldn't be able to take it.
Sun Jinzi had seen a lot of fireworks, but seeing them at such a close distance, and turning her head and seeing Jin Chupei who was not far away, her mood improved a lot.
Jin Chupei was the same as well. Seeing the bright light in Sun Jinzi's eyes, the worry in her heart also dissipated by a bit. It was just that, Queen Mother should be able to see it within the Qingyou Palace.
Jin Chuxuan did not miss the exchange between the two of them, he was extremely furious in his heart, but he could only shake his head and smile bitterly, he seemed to be insane, he only wanted to defeat Jin Chupei, and now, he was afraid that Jin Chupei had beaten him by a step and gotten his hands on Sun Jinzi.
If she knew earlier that she would still be able to ask the Emperor to betroth her to Qian Yun, she would definitely have asked for a wife to come back to Qian Yun.
Sun Jinzi turned around and saw that her uncle's face seemed to have darkened and for a moment, she felt that it was really funny.
Seeing Sun Jinzi looking at him, Qian Yun could only grin helplessly. His mother's mouth was unforgiving, he was in the middle and it did not feel good, and if Qing Er was not so obedient, he would have been in trouble.
Thinking about how he would be able to see Qing Er when he returned, Qian Yun was overjoyed.
On the way back, Sun Jinzi did not sit on the carriage that belonged to the Qian Family, instead, she sat on the carriage that belonged to Sun Fuping. Since Sun Fuping and Zhong's were sitting in the same carriage, she could only follow Sun Jinmeng. If it was in the past, she would definitely feel wronged, but now, she felt that, in any case, other people hated her, so she just let them feel disgusted, whatever it was they had to do with her.
Sun Jinmeng called out to Zhong's, but was stared at by him and returned back to the carriage.
Sun Jinmeng looked at Sun Jinzi who was sitting on the carriage and resting with his eyes closed, and immediately became furious, she wished that she could strangle her, but just when she was thinking that, Sun Jinzi suddenly opened his eyes and stared straight at her.
Sun Jinzi liked to see her like this. Seeing that she wanted to kill him, yet had no way to do so with her expression.
”What happened to Third Sister?” Have you got a cramp in your face? ”
Knowing that Sun Jinzi was just teasing him, Sun Jinmeng could only groan in pain as she sat in the carriage. However, her eyes never left Sun Jinzi's face.
”What's there to be proud of? You haven't even gotten married yet and you want to stay at home to be an abandoned wife?”
”Little sister shouldn't be much better. The marriage ceremony for Sixth Prince wasn't even mentioned today. Who knows? ”Sigh, how pitiful is that Empress Dowager …”
Although Sun Jinzi did not finish speaking, Sun Jinmeng could not take it anymore. Today, when she saw all the ladies who were usually on good terms with her back being shunned, her heart was filled with discomfort.
Sun Jinmeng's eyes became watery. She turned her head, and at a place she thought Sun Jinzi couldn't see, she quietly used the silk handkerchief to wipe the corners of her eyes.
The light in the carriage was very dim, and it danced back and forth on their faces. Just like how it was when she killed herself in her previous life, Sun Jinzi never thought that she would be able to see such a weak side of Sun Jinmeng.
She knew this in her heart. She just thought that she was in a weaker position. If she were to put up a resistance against such a venomous person, it would be fatal for her.
Sun Jinzi only had her eyes closed. Although she had lost half of her sleepiness after playing with Sun Jinmeng for a while, once she relaxed, she was still extremely sleepy.
When she returned to the Sun Mansion, Mu Tan was still waiting at the gatehouse. When she heard the voice, she immediately ran out.
”Miss, why did you only just return? Madam even packed dumplings for you.”
Sun Jinzi's heart warmed, looking at the new clothes and braids of Mu Tan, he felt that she had become even more beautiful today.
Mu Tan saw the unfriendly face of Zhong's behind him and immediately bent down to greet him.
Zhong's originally wanted to reprimand Mu Tan a little, but before he could say anything, Sun Fuping opened his mouth first.
”The Madam actually cooked dumplings herself. I have to go and take a look.”
At first, Zhong's had thought that Sun Fuping would spend the night in his room and tomorrow would be a good day, but he didn't expect that he would actually go to that slut's place in Qian's disease.
”Master!”
No matter how furious Zhong's was, when Sun Fuping turned around, a smile was plastered on his face. ”Master, thirty'er today, take a look!”
”It's already so late, there's no need to keep watch for the new year. You should get some rest.”
When Sun Jinzi heard her father's words, she almost laughed out loud. She really did not know if it was intentional, but she did well this time, the Zhong's's face was distorted.
Sun Jinmeng yawned and was about to walk back to her own courtyard. When she passed by his mother, she covered her mouth and yawned, ”Mother, Father is right. There's no need to keep watch over the new year, just go to sleep.”
”Sleep, sleep, sleep. Hurry up and go sleep. Why did this old lady give birth to such a stupid daughter like you?”
Zhong's walked away, leaving Sun Jinmeng standing in her original spot with a wronged expression. She had already felt wronged enough to begin with, but now that Hai Ao was mentioned by her mother, it really made her unhappy.
Could it be that her mother also felt that she was extremely stupid and that she was a jinx?
He felt wronged, but he still went back to the courtyard with a pout. Today, his mother would probably not come to comfort him.
Sun Jinzi only paid her respects at the courtyard of the Qian's disease before going back to sleep. As for the dumplings, she did not eat them because she realized that she could not swallow anything when facing Sun Fuping.
Even though he was her father, such a father might not be the same.
However, after returning to the courtyard, Sun Jinzi regretted her decision. Originally, she was so sleepy that she wanted to fall asleep immediately. However, after smelling the fragrance of the dumplings, she was so hungry that she couldn't fall asleep.
