That day, after finishing the matters at hand, Sang Yuxin invited Sang Zijing to stay at Duke's Residence. Sang Qingxiao wrapped her arms around Sang Zijing's neck while Li Cu simply took her horse and rode off.
What’s there to do at Duke's Residence? The relationships inside are complicated. Come with me; I run a Small Tavern where you can live comfortably.
Sang Zijing didn’t want to go to Duke's Residence either. Her aunt had been away for many years, and there must be many things to handle in the manor. She decided not to intrude.
On the way home, Sang Qingxiao asked her, "Did Sang Yuxin bother you too?"
Their backgrounds were different, and their experiences varied. Among the women survivors, she was relatively senior, speaking with a tone of an elder, treating everyone as if they were noble ladies.
As for that person, she meant no harm; it was just that she was used to freedom and wasn’t one to easily listen to others' advice.
"Coincidentally, I feel the same way."
Initially thinking that less contact would lead to less misunderstanding, the next day, however, Sang Yuxin sent someone to invite them for a gathering. She also invited others, and the location was a private room at Nectar.
This was something they had to attend.
Upon arriving, they found Sang Yuzhen alone in the room, looking somewhat anxious but with a hint of joy in her eyes.
Sang Qingxiao leaned in closer. "Is this... good news on the horizon? Yan Min is quick with his actions."
Sang Yuzhen's face turned red with shyness. "You child, Aunt..."
Tsk, she's already protective. I heard you've visited the Yan Manor several times.
"Yes, my brother Min and I have been looking forward to this day. He made preparations in advance and told outsiders that he is married; his wife is unwell and staying in her hometown."
After the Sang Family's vindication, his wife's illness could be cured. Earlier, she had sent a team out of the city for a round trip; I returned with them.
Now, the word going around is that I'm weak and not acclimated to this place and need more time to recuperate before meeting anyone.
"What do you mean by not being able to meet anyone!" Sang Yuxin arrived last, stepping in with confidence. "I am a daughter of the Sang Family; why should I be hidden away?"
"You are nameless and have followed him for so many years. Not only did you take care of him but also his son. Is the education from the Sang Family meant for you to be an old maid?"
Sang Yuzhen was taken aback by Sang Yuxin’s words. Just as Sang Yuxin was about to say more, Sang Yuzhen suddenly spoke up loudly, filled with anger. "Min is not that kind of person! He has never treated me as an old maid!"
"He has cooked for me, prepared medicine for me, mended my clothes knowing my status as a remnant yet still stood by my side."
When I replaced Sang Yuzhu, I was terrified every day; upon learning my whereabouts, he planned to come to the capital.
Sang Yuxin grew impatient with her rebuttal and interrupted her. "Listen; this intention is clear—it's merely seeing movement from the Sang Family and wanting to place bets early."
"Don't say that about Min! Just because you're unhappy doesn't mean all couples in the world are like you!"
"Who said anyone is unhappy?"
Anyway, my Min Ge has no other women besides me.
"You, you, I'm doing this for your own good."
Seeing Sang Yuxin getting angry, Sang Yuzhen, who had mustered up the courage to defend Yan Min, felt a bit deflated again. "You were the one who brought up my Min Ge first. If you hadn't mentioned him, I wouldn't have said anything about you."
"How did the Sang Family end up with someone like you, so blinded by a man! Ha, go ahead and protect him; there will come a time when you'll be the one crying!"
Sang Yuxin chose to ignore her, and Sang Yuzhen was relieved to let out a sigh of relief.
