C7 Grandmother

The moment she finished speaking, Shu Jing noticed her grandmother Old Madam Shu casting dissatisfied glances at her.

Third Aunt was his father's beloved concubine. She had never had any good feelings towards him and always liked to compare Shu Yimeng who gave birth to her with him, as if this would enhance her identity as Shu Yimeng's daughter.

In addition, there were eight concubines and a concubine in the room.

These people quietly gestured for her to quickly enter, but their eyes were filled with hidden ridicule.

Although these people seemed friendly towards her, it was actually just to coax her to take away her embroidery and paintings. It was also after her marriage that she found out that her embroidery and paintings were extremely popular in the capital.

In her previous life, she didn't know anything about fish eyes. This time, she wouldn't repeat the same mistake.

She walked lightly and gracefully, bowing with grace and with guilt in her voice:

"Grandmother, please forgive us. Jing was left behind by Father to discuss the marriage with His Highness the Crown Prince, so she came late to see you. It caused Grandmother to wait for so long, Jing is truly ashamed."

Everyone in the room was shocked. They looked at the graceful and graceful Shu Jing as if it was the first time they had seen her.

It had picturesque features, delicate and soft facial features, a beautiful and pointed figure, and a proper etiquette. It was soft and graceful, completely in line with the actions of a famous lady. It was too different from her usual ugly appearance.

As for those beautiful flower like girls, they secretly held onto the silk handkerchief in their hands. If not for Shu Jing's appearance, one of them could have become Crown Princess, and Shu Jing had taken their position as Crown Princess away from them.

Among them, the one with the most resentment was the one sitting next to the old lady, Second Miss and Shu Yiyan.

Old Madam Shu had never treated her granddaughter who she was no longer by her side since she was young. However, taking into account her status, Princess Consort To-Be could only nod with a sullen face, not allowing her to sit down.

"Grandmother, look, you're not laughing anymore. Didn't Master Yan'er say that laughing more can not only make you beautiful, but also prolong your life? Yan'er wants Grandmother's life so long. Grandmother, please laugh."

Shu Yiyan's coquettish voice came from Shu Yiyan. She shook Old Madam Shu's arm with a sweet smile.

Shu Yiyan had inherited the prime minister and her stepmother, Madam Ning. She had a small, straight nose, crescent face, cherry pink lips, and delicate young women's makeup. She looked especially pleasing.

Old Madam Shu turned her head to look at her. Her originally calm face immediately turned into a kind and kind smile.

He patted Shu Yiyan's white hands with a gratified expression on his face.

"You only know how to make me happy. If you can live to a hundred years old with a smile, then what else do you need a doctor for?"

Even though she said that, the smile on Old Madam Shu's face never stopped. It could be seen that she was very satisfied with her words.

Shu Yiyan playfully pouted her lips and said with a small temper,

"This is the master I specially asked for for Grandmother's opinion. Master said that the best way to extend one's lifespan is to laugh."

"Good, good, good. Didn't you say that the more you smile, the more beautiful you will be? Even if you are already the prettiest girl in the capital, you still have to smile a lot to win the crown prince's heart."

Old Madam Shu was even more grinning when she heard that he was specifically asking for her.

However, the room suddenly became silent. Shu Yiyan lowered her head in disappointment, and embarrassedly said:

"Grandmother, you're making fun of Yan'er again. Now, elder sister needs to win over His Highness the Crown Prince's heart, and elder sister is the most beautiful one in the mansion."

"Oh, I'm old and still remember that you're the one who's worthy of the crown prince. Look at my memory, old woman."

Old Madam Shu tried to ease the awkwardness in her voice, but the meaning behind her words was clear. She was trying to insult Shu Jing because she wasn't worthy to be the Crown Prince.

Shu Yiyan was taught according to Crown Princess's standard since she was young, and she was also the one that the old lady cared the most about. It would be weird for Former Emperor to suddenly issue an imperial decree to marry the old lady's vulgar granddaughter.

Everyone in the room also looked at Shu Jing with a faint smile.
