The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man
Chapter 1391 - Chapter 1391 1391 Chuan'er's Blessing

Chapter 1391: 1391 Chuan’er’s Blessing Chapter 1391: 1391 Chuan’er’s Blessing Su Qingyue thus did not over-refuse, “In that case, I thank you, Lady.”

She called Maid Yinzhu and instructed her, “Zhu’er, take all the things Lady Xiao sent into the side room.”

“Yes.” Yinzhu nodded and led a group of servants into the side room one after another.

Shen Yun originally thought that Su Qingyue would be unable to resist the temptation of the gifts and would excitedly examine each piece of silk and jewelry, revealing the kind of greedy countenance that one who is not accustomed to the world’s affairs might display.

However, to her surprise, Su Qingyue merely accepted them and at once, Shen Yun felt upset inside, yet she maintained a kindly expression and said, “Yue’er, won’t you take a look?

Those sets of jewelry all come from Ziyu Zhai in the capital city.”

The implication was that they were very valuable.

Su Qingyue then put on a show of briefly looking over them, “Lady Xiao’s every gift is a treasure, and I like them all.”

Shen Yun felt in her heart that this village girl was really not playing along, giving face where no face was due, “Stop calling me Lady Xiao, you are Chuan’er’s main wife, so call me Grandma.”

Su Qingyue looked towards Xiao Yuchuan, “What does the third brother think?”

“Whatever the wife likes.” Xiao Yuchuan had no objections.

“Since the third brother has not been recognized by the clan, it is still better to temporarily call you Lady Xiao.” Su Qingyue was observant and keen, how could she not know that Shen Yun’s smile was hiding a knife.

If it were not for the third brother, she would not even bother with this old granny.

“You may call me whatever you wish.” Inside, Shen Yun keenly hoped she would not call her that, for she did not acknowledge a daughter-in-law of such low status.

Su Qingyue was just a village girl, her daughter-in-law’s background could not withstand scrutiny, the very mention of it would be laughable.

She affectionately took Su Qingyue’s hand, “Yue’er, what do you usually like to eat?

I have brought two imperial chefs from the capital city.

The dishes they prepare are top-notch and taste excellent.

Whatever you want to eat, just let them prepare it for you.”

“I do not have any particular craving, there is no need for such politeness, Lady Xiao.” She withdrew her hand uncomfortably.

Shen Yun looked sincerely, “Yue’er, during the hardest times, you chose to marry Chuan’er, and before his identity was exposed, you were devoted to him with all your heart.

It’s truly hard to find a woman like you in this world.

It’s Chuan’er’s good fortune to have married you!”

Actually, Shen Yun did somewhat admire Su Qingyue in this regard.

Nevertheless, no matter how much she admired her, it could not overpower reality.

Only a daughter from a first-class family or the court’s power and riches was worthy of her son.

With her son’s status, getting married could not possibly be for the so-called love but had to be a strong alliance, to make the Xiao Family even more powerful.

When Xiao Yuchuan heard Shen Yun say this, his originally cool expression softened, “Lady Xiao, it is good that you understand.

In this world, there is nothing more important to me than my wife.”

“Chuan’er is truly a man of great loyalty and righteousness.” Such temperament was not suitable for an heir of a first-class family.

And since she had no second son, she had to ‘cultivate and temper’ him well, “Mom is truly proud to have a son like you.”

Although she said so, all superficial courtesies were observed.

Once a mother-son relationship was established, she would then remove all stumbling blocks.

“Cough cough…” Suddenly, Shen Yun’s face turned pale as she began to cough, a handkerchief pressed to her mouth.

Xiao Yuchuan said indifferently, “Lady Xiao, you should go back and rest.”

“Chuan’er, will you find time to see Mom, will you?” Her eyes, seasoned by time, brimmed with tears, “Mom truly misses you terribly.

Just seeing you and hearing your voice would be enough.”

Xiao Yuchuan had never been cared for so much by an elder, he did not refuse, but he did not agree either.
