Rebirth: Contract Husband Falls in Love with Me-Chapter 165 - 83 Big Sister and Brother-in-law Plan to Stay for Good_2

Throughout the journey, Shi Fengju’s face looked gloomy, and Sang Wan remained silent. Yet in her heart, she deeply agreed with Shi Yumei’s words: Men are all the same!

Seeing Shi Fengju angry made her think unconsciously: What right do you have to be angry? Aren’t you also a man, your actions might not even be much better than your brother-in-law’s. Sadly, I, Sang Wan, do not have a supportive natal family to rely on!

"I didn’t expect my brother-in-law to be so outrageous! Even my elder sister, how can she tolerate it!" Having returned to Ningyuan and sitting down in the warm pavilion, Shi Fengju finally spoke resentfully.

Sang Wan took the hot tea offered by Liu Ya and handed it to Shi Fengju, smiling faintly, she said: "To marry a chicken follow a chicken, to marry a dog follow a dog, what else can a woman do but endure? I think the elder sister’s broad-mindedness to be open about it is actually quite good, at least she won’t make herself uncomfortable, and life seems easier that way!"

Shi Fengju was stunned, not expecting her to say that. As he listened, he felt there was more to her words, something implied. He then set down his tea cup, dismissed the maids, and chuckled, "Is Miss Wan resenting me?"

"What are you thinking!" Sang Wan’s face flushed as she realized her slip of the tongue, quickly chuckling, "We, we aren’t the same as them, right?" ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

"Of course not, we—" Shi Fengju’s smile froze on his lips.

Clearly, he initially misunderstood what Sang Wan meant; he only realized it now!

He meant that he and Ren Zhixian are certainly not the same type of person, while Sang Wan meant that they were just a fake couple.

Shi Fengju, already feeling dejected, now felt even worse. Looking at Sang Wan, he was at a loss for words. He wanted to say, Miss Wan, I regret it, I truly regret it, let’s nullify our agreement, please stay and be my wife in truth. But he knew he couldn’t say that, instinctively feeling that Sang Wan wouldn’t agree.

"I am not like my brother-in-law, and we will be different from them," Shi Fengju gazed deeply at Sang Wan and stood up, smiling, "These past days you must have been busy and tired. Rest early! My elder sister and brother-in-law will stay in the mansion for a few more days, and you might be busy. It’s not easy for my elder sister, be patient and take good care of her. I’ll thank you properly later!"

Sang Wan, seeing his earnestness, chuckled, "Good, at least you know I’ve been busy and tired, and you acknowledged it with thanks."

"Don’t worry, I will! No matter what, I can’t let the Shi family’s eldest miss be wronged in her own home! However, I don’t quite understand your elder sister’s temperament; if there’s anything I do that displeases her, you’ll have to help me explain to her. I accept whatever way I need to apologize!"

Sang Wan felt that Shi Yumei had an unreasoned enmity towards her that was deeper than Shi Fengju, the "victim" himself. Moreover, Yumei was straightforward, not the least bit polite, and being the legitimate eldest miss of the Shi family, in a few exchanges, she had no chance to retort. Thus, taking precautions was necessary.

"If she gets annoyed about anything, just tell me! I won’t let you be wronged," Shi Fengju, seeing her willingness to rely on him, felt a twinkle of joy.

The discussion of their rest is not mentioned further.

In the main courtyard, Shi Yumei had gotten into bed with Mrs. Wang, and after whispering and murmuring half the night, she finally fell asleep in a daze.

Her staying the night to sleep with her mother was primarily to have this discussion.

The next morning, just as Shi Fengju and Sang Wan were getting out of bed, Xiuchun, who was waiting outside Ningyuan, came in.

Shi Fengju and Sang Wan were startled and quickly asked what was the matter?

"It’s not about the eldest Miss," Xiuchun hurriedly chuckled, "The madam instructed, please young master don’t go to the trading company yet, instead, come over first after you freshen up! The eldest Miss need not come over to pay respects today, just get ready for the festival preparations!"

Hearing it was unrelated to her, Sang Wan was relieved, only to hear Shi Fengju nod and say, "Go back and tell mother, I’ll be right over!" He then hurriedly ordered people to assist him in freshening up and dressing, for he knew his mother wouldn’t normally be up this early, it must truly be something important!

Sang Wan then stopped Xiuchun, "Tell the madam that I will have someone send the young master’s breakfast over later! Yesterday I had instructed the kitchen to prepare some dishes that the elder uncle and aunt like, it will be sent over together shortly!"

"Yes, eldest Miss!" Xiuchun responded, and then left.

Shi Fengju hurried to his mother’s place, and as he sat down, he opened by asking, "Mother and elder sister, why not sleep a little longer, what’s so urgent to call me over this early!"

"How could I sleep!" Mrs. Wang sighed deeply, loosening her hand into a fist and lightly pounding it on her chest to ease her breath. Shi Yumei, dressed in dove-blue clothes embroidered with folded branch Chrysanthemum, sat beside Mrs. Wang with her head slightly drooped, also looking unwell.

Shi Fengju instantly understood a bit, probably it was related to the elder sister’s family.

"Mother, did something happen at elder sister’s home? Just tell me, and I’ll have someone handle it! She’s my own sister, not a stranger!" Shi Fengju chuckled. Although he didn’t approve of his brother-in-law, he couldn’t just watch his own sister suffer. The Shi family could easily support the couple for their entire lives, it wouldn’t be a big deal.

"Little brother!" Shi Yumei lifted her head and called out gratefully.

"Ah!" Mrs. Wang sighed again and said, "You see which courtyard in the mansion is convenient, have Wan arrange for someone to clean and arrange it, your elder sister and brother-in-law will be living with us long-term from now on!"

"..." Shi Fengju’s eyes widened in surprise. Although he was prepared to clean up the mess for that insufferable brother-in-law, hearing these words still felt incredibly unbelievable.
