Chapter 366.2: Various Matters

Sun Yi Jia can be said to have repeatedly sighed at her own good luck. Her husband was ambitious to improve himself, and most importantly wasnt fickle, extremely good to both her and their child. For women, marrying was just like reincarnating a second time, seeking nothing more than just these. Sun Yi Jia felt, in this life of hers, there was nothing else to ask for. Of course, she was actually still missing a son. After recuperating her body for another year, shell just try for a second child. Even if in the end, she cant have a son, perhaps a bit regretful, but her life can still be considered perfect.

Judging from your face, I just know, youre certainly getting by quite smoothly, so Im also too lazy to ask whether youre well or not. Jiangnan, we wont have the opportunity to go, so what all fun things are there?

Jing Wan brushed away Sun Yi Jias hand, What are you doing? What are you doing? Nicely talk, dont start getting physical. Who did you learn from, randomly just pinching someones soft spots, hows that appropriate?

Sun Yi Jia let out a pfft, grabbing Jing Wans hand, even insisting on pinching Jing Wans cheek before finally letting go, This cheek of yours, the sensation is just like my daughters.

Great, turns out, the cause of this touchiness was because of her child. When too tender and too soft, the sensation was good, thus developing this habit of wanting to touch!

Yuan Qiao Qiaos line of sight landed on Jing Wans arm that was exposed outside, singlehandedly grabbing and pulling up her sleeve. On the snow white tender skin, red plum flower blossomed, Whats this, whats this? That gaze was like having caught something big, feeling both excited and worked up.

Jing Wan was very speechless towards these two increasingly strange friends, Having already married, yet dont know what this is? Do you not have any on you?

Yuan Qiao Qiao got choked by Jing Wan, letting out a cough, There is some, but not as much as the ones on you.

Jin Qinw.a.n.g, as expected, very much likes little sister Wan. Finally can rest a.s.sured. Sun Yi Jia was like as if having married off her own daughter, having a bit of relief, yet also a bit of melancholy.

You two sure are enough. As expected, only unmarried girls were pure and innocent. Once married, all will become crude.

Alright, alright, wont tease you anymore. Quickly tell us about Jiangnans landscape.

Compared with before, Jing Wan right now recounted in even more detail, and her att.i.tude was also even more casual. After all, it was between people of the same age, and moreover, also her good friends. As the saying goes, the words that cant be said to ones elder, one can all say to ones good friend, so the att.i.tude was just completely different.

Concealing the matters that cant be said, what Jing Wan said although wasnt exciting and dramatic, the two of them still happily listened, inwardly yearning in their hearts.

If you two want to go, its not very difficult either. For older cousin, needless to say, when your husband gets appointed to a post outside the capital, just go to Jiangnan. In any case, hes not the eldest son, so you dont need to stay behind to take care of your mother and father-in-law. And for third sister-in-law, its even easier, just directly let third brother take you and your daughter out. Theres still another year until the next metropolitan exam, so going out and traveling around for a year isnt a problem either.

Easy for you to say. Sun Yi Jia reached out again to pinch her face.

Good girls dont get physical. Jing Wan glared at her.

Then really sorry, your sister-in-law, I, is precisely a bad girl. Sun Yi Jia smilingly continued to pinch.

What happened to the n.o.ble family young lady? This style changed too much. Have the former Sun Yi Jia returned at once.

Things really arent that simple. The family wants to let husband stay in the capital, and gain some experience in the Hanlin Academy. Im guessing father-in-law and them still want to let maternal grandfather help out, having husbands rank slightly raised a little. Afterwards, whether or not hell be appointed outside the capital, still need to separately discuss. Moreover, mother-in-law still wants to hold a di grandson. The sister-in-law above me has already given birth to three children, all daughters. Although there is a shu-born boy, but because his birth mother isnt liked by my mother-in-law, that child naturally isnt liked either. Ive only been married for two months, yet already starting to eye my stomach. I suppose, if unable to give birth to a son, then dont even think about carefreely leaving.

For Yuan Qiao Qiao, precisely because she was her mothers sole daughter, how much her mother suffered for the sake of a son, she was very clear. However, regardless whether it was her father or her grandmother, they were all considered pretty good people, else the days really would be hard to live through, and she may not necessarily be as fortunate as her mother. Thats why, even if the people of her husbands family dont say anything, but to continuously eye her stomach, her also didnt feel well inside.

These things, Yuan Qiao Qiao didnt say out loud, but Yuan Qiao Qiao wasnt good at controlling her emotions to begin with. Jing Wan and Sun Yi Jia both werent blind, and towards the capital magistrate familys situation, Jing Wan may not be clear about, but Sun Yi Jia knew.

Every family had their difficulties. This was also something that cant be helped. Moreover, since the other party was someone meticulously picked by eldest paternal aunt, then presumably not bad. Thus, Jing Wan didnt continue asking anymore. When you got married, you similarly didnt tell me. The extra dowry for you, later, Ill make up for it, and prepare a big one for you.

Aiyaa, then I wont hold back. In any case, Wan Wan right now is super rich, so no matter how much you give me, all just pocket change.

Clearly, Yuan Qiao Qiao didnt understand too well Jing Wans main intention. However, this kind of trivial matter didnt need to be bickered over either. As long as the people that should understand figure it out, itll be enough.

Actually, the days right now are also very good. In the past, I never once dared to think of such days. As such, Im very satisfied. Although towards the outside, I somewhat yearn, its not like I absolutely need to go. Theres still a year until the next metropolitan exam. Its better for your third brother to stay in the capital to prepare for the exam. After all, theres grandfather giving guidance. Additionally, your third brother also needs to spend a lot of time on painting, so this kind of arrangement is just right. If I want to go out and travel around, I can also wait until your third brother gets a.s.signed to a post outside the capital. Thats right, Sun Yi Jia wasnt greedy. Towards the present, she very much cherished.

Speaking of which, I previously painted some paintings. Later, you all can come to the qinw.a.n.g manor, and also call up Ying Shuang. Ill let you all have a look.

The two of them naturally happily nodded.

However, speaking of Ying Shuang, how is she lately?

Taking care of her fetus, counting the time, almost sixth months.

Jing Wan softly smiled, Returning after having been gone for half a year, what one encounters, seemingly all some happy matters. If all happy matters, then things naturally cant be better.

Speaking of children, the conversation inevitably returned onto Jing Wan. Just, before they could open their mouth.

w.a.n.gfei, Miss Ying requests an audience. A servant girl came to report.

Miss Ying? Jing Wan was confused. Where did this Miss Ying come from?

Luo Si Ying, an orphan girl from the clan. Didnt fourth younger sister pa.s.s away from illness in Rui Qinw.a.n.g Manor? Third aunt, suffering the painful loss of her beloved daughter, just thought of adopting a girl from the clan to relieve her pain. Unexpectedly, in the clan, there really was such a girl, appearing exceptionally similar to fourth younger sister. If one were to say the two were twin sisters, people would all believe, and it just so happens that this girl didnt have parents, relying on the clan to survive. Thus, third aunt just had the person brought back, raising by her side, changing her name to Si Ying. Sun Yi Jia explained.

Jing Wan instantly understood. Third aunt, as expected, worried about Luo Jing Ying being outside, and just as predicted, used the most simple and most feasible method to have the person brought back to her side again.

For her to come see her, Jing Wan wasnt surprised. In reality, among the prepared gifts, there was also Luo Jing Yings share.

Invite her in.

w.a.n.gfei, that Miss Ying is very afraid of strangers, asking if you can please change locations?

What is the meaning of this? She, a commoner girl, coming on her own to meet with w.a.n.gfei, yet want an esteemed qin-w.a.n.gfei to change locations? How big is her face for her to be able to do this kind of thing? Yuan Qiao Qiao somewhat angrily said.

Clearly, this was one that didnt know the truth. However, this kind of thing involved upon the imperial familys face, so if able to not know, it was best to not know. Even in this Head Minister of Appointments Manor, the ones that were aware of this matter were also very few.

Its not that big of a deal, perhaps this miss really is somewhat timid. Ill just go have a look. Presumably, it was Luo Jing Ying having something to say to her, but didnt want others to know.

Seeing Jing Wan get up to leave, Yuan Qiao Qiao pouted, Even if becoming a w.a.n.gfei, Wan Wan is still like this.

Alright, since you already know, then what are you still grumbling about. Sun Yi Jias thoughts were more or less the same as Jing Wans.

Inside Elegant Haitang Residence, in a place not far from the gates, there was a small pavilion. When Jing Wan arrived, Luo Jing Ying was already waiting there. Seeing Jing Wan, Luo Jing Ying got up, properly greeting her.

No need to be this formal, have a seat. Jing Wan studied her. Although still dressed as an unmarried girl, the changes truly were too big. As long as it was someone that didnt know the truth, no matter how similar looking, all wont have her and the former Luo Jing Ying viewed as the same person.

In the past, how bright and ostentatious she was, right now, was just how quiet and even indifferent she was. Moreover, she was somewhat dispirited, not having the slightest vitality and energy that someone at this age should have, appearing like a living dead.

Jing Wan inwardly sighed. Luo Jing Ying in the past was quite hateful, but her destructive power was also limited. Since she has already tried to commit suicide in front of her face once, then the past matters naturally can just be forgotten about and let bygones be bygones. Of course, the premise was that she wont continue to cause trouble, otherwise there was no possibility of being forgiven again. Fourth younger sister wants to meet me? Is something the matter?

This commoner although resembles w.a.n.gfeis fourth younger sister, one is unable to bear this address from w.a.n.gfei.

This is wanting to even have herself entirely denied? Then, Ill just call you Si Ying. If theres something, you can directly say it.

[1] Her current name Si Ying () means thinking of or missing Ying(), with Ying being the same character in Jing Ying. For outsiders that dont know the actual situation, they would just think that its her mother giving her this name because she misses her real daughter.

T/N: Happy New Years!! Although belated because I forgot to add this when updating yesterday. Despite the weird state of the world in 2020, I at least still managed to stay productive with updates. Counting from the latest translated chapter on patreon, this year I managed to translate chapter 145 to 380, which is around 425 posts in updates. Hoping that I can be just as productive in 2021 and finish translating this novel! As long as life doesnt throw a truck at me, I will continue to work hard translating this novel.
