Chapter 544 Sister, He Only Noticed Me
The ladies around were all stunned by Xiao Qingyuan, and they gasped one after another: "What is Master Xiao talking about? What about the previous life or this life?"
"Could it be that Master Xiao has become a monk and... has gone insane? Why are his words so mysterious?"
"The Nanshi he mentioned is the most talented woman in Dafeng, the daughter of Elder Liu?"
"Oh, isn't the daughter of Elder Liu planning a marriage with the second son of the Duke's Mansion, Mr. Gu? One of them is a talented girl, and the other is a child prodigy. They are a perfect match!"
"Aren't Prince Xiao and Second Master Gu good brothers? Is he trying to steal your love?"
When Princess Ning heard everyone whispering, her face turned very ugly.
She couldn't help but scold her son: "Yuan'er, what nonsense are you talking about as soon as you get back! Look at how scared you are of that girl. Her face has turned pale! Hurry up and come here!"
Xiao Qingyuan then noticed that Shen Wantang's face was a little pale, and she looked at him as if she had seen a ghost, as if he had said something crazy and scared her.
He was a little disappointed that Shen Wantang had no memories, but he also felt somewhat contented: "It seems that my good deeds in my previous life moved the heavens, and the heavens specially rewarded me with rebirth! But you were not kind enough, so you didn't get the reward. You should do more good deeds!"
Shen Wantang took a step back to distance himself from him, looking at him in surprise.
But she sneered in her heart. Xiao Qingyuan was happy too early. In the future, he would know whether rebirth was a reward or a punishment.
Xiao Qingyuan stopped looking at Shen Wantang and looked at Princess Ning. He said loudly, "Mother, I want to marry Nan Shi. She is the only one who is most suitable for me in the whole capital! I also promised her in my previous life that I would let her be my Crown Prince's Consort and that we would be together for the rest of our lives! Mother, please send someone to ask for marriage for me now!"
Princess Ning's face turned pale and her vision went dark. This evil creature would do whatever he wanted!
If she could marry Liu Nanshi, would she have to invite so many wives of fourth- and fifth-rank officials to come and enjoy the flowers? If he had been more motivated, would she have to pick these ugly ones?
Madam Liu had eyes on top of her head. Last time, she just mentioned the two children to Madam Liu briefly, but was rejected on the spot. Later, she wanted to see Madam Liu again, but she didn't expect that Madam Liu would directly claim to be ill and refused to see guests, which made her feel disappointed!
However, the next day, Mrs. Liu brought her daughter to Gu's house and chatted with Mrs. Gu until dark!
Princess Ning felt so angry that she couldn't eat for several days.
Now, his son openly said that he wanted to marry Liu Nanshi, and asked her to go to the Liu family to propose marriage on his behalf!
Isn't this helping Madam Liu slap her in the face? !
Princess Ning gritted her teeth and said almost word by word: "I have already picked out a princess for you. Don't even think about Liu Nanshi. She is not suitable for you at all!"
Now it was Xiao Qingyuan's turn to look unhappy: "What did mother say? Why are you still not agreeing with me marrying Nan Shi like in the last life? Why on earth is this?!"
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Seeing that the Ning Wangfei and the mother and son of Xiao Shizi were on the verge of a showdown, they were afraid of being implicated and could not help but quietly step back.
Only Shen Wantang wanted to laugh after hearing this. It was really gratifying!
Princess Ning was still the same as in the previous life, refusing to let Liu Nanshi in. Did Xiao Qingyuan think that he could marry Liu Nanshi smoothly after his rebirth? How naive!
He had died once, but why didn't he understand that the biggest obstacle for him to marry Liu Nanshi was not her, but his mother.
Princess Ning didn't want to invite so many people to watch the fun between mother and son, so she ignored her son's shouting, put on a stern face and sent everyone away with a few words.
Before the Shen family left, she went out of her way to comfort Shen Wantang.
Obviously, she still prefers Shen Wantang as her daughter-in-law.
Firstly, Shen Wantang's calm and honest character is very suitable for her temperament. Secondly, Shen Wantang was born in a humble family and her family is very weak, so it is easy to control her after she marries into the palace.
As a mother-in-law, could she, who was a woman like Liu Nanshi, control the family?
She was afraid that before she could control Liu Nanshi, Madam Liu would come to her house and act in a weird way!
Princess Ning ordered everyone to leave, so Shen Wantang naturally walked out without looking back.
Shen Mingxuan kept looking back, staring at Xiao Qingyuan with infatuated eyes: "There is such a handsome man in this world. The storybooks always say that the protagonist is suave and unparalleled. I didn't believe it at first, but now I know that what the storybooks say is true! If I can marry a man like this, I will die without regrets!"
Qi hurriedly covered her mouth and said, "Keep your voice down and don't talk nonsense. If the maids in the palace hear you, they will laugh at you behind your back! Go away quickly. Didn't you see the princess and the prince arguing? It's not good for us to hear too much about this kind of family affairs!"
Shen Mingxuan didn't care about whether she was a maid or not. She shook Qi's arm and said, "Mother, I want to marry Prince Xiao! He just looked at me. Did you see it, mother? He noticed me!"
Qi's gaze fell on Shen Wantang beside her. She knew very well that among all the girls who came today, only Shen Wantang had received Xiao Qingyuan's attention. Not only Xiao Qingyuan, but even Princess Ning seemed to have taken a fancy to her, otherwise she would not have given her an extra jade hairpin.
She saw the jade hairpin clearly. It was of first-rate quality and emerald green. It was worth at least several hundred taels of silver!
This is Prince Ning’s Mansion!
This is one of the most prestigious families in the entire capital city of Dafeng!
The one thing that Princess Ning gave to others as a reward was Shen Guannian's annual salary!
After Shen Guannian's mourning period, he has not been able to resume his post, and his salary has not been paid for a long time. The Shen family is now struggling to make ends meet!
If she could really let her daughter marry into Prince Ning's mansion, not only would her daughter be able to enjoy the good life, but she could enjoy it too!
Qi whispered, "Don't worry, Xuanxuan. No matter whether that Xiao Shizi has noticed you or not, I have a way to make you marry him!"
Shen Mingxuan's face was full of surprise: "Really?!"
"That's natural. When has your mother ever lied to you?"
Shen Wantang watched as they got closer and closer to the palace gate. She suddenly sneered and contradicted the mother and daughter: "Sister, don't dream. The prince didn't notice you at all. He only noticed me."
"Sister, didn't you hear? He knows my name and said he knows me. Does he know your name? Does he know you?"
The surprise on Shen Mingxuan's face froze instantly. She stared at Shen Wantang gloomily: "What's so strange about the prince knowing your name? We are all on the list of people invited by the princess today. He must have seen your name! Don't be so self-indulgent. A concubine's daughter is also worthy of marrying the prince?"
"I didn't say I'm worthy. Why are you so anxious, sister? Didn't you hear the prince say that he wants to marry the daughter of Elder Liu? Our Shen family is far inferior to the Elder's Mansion. My concubine's daughter is not worthy, but your legitimate daughter is? You are not worthy either!"
