After experiencing several disputes, Shi Fuxin has realized that there are some irreconcilable conflicts between her and Fan Mingyu, but she is also greedy for his kindness and enjoys his tenderness, so she
In the midst of indecision and wavering.
Looking at Fan Mingyu chatting and laughing with the Jin family and his son in the private room, Shi Fuxin was a little absent-minded and talked perfunctorily with Miss Jin. She usually only answered when Miss Jin asked a question.
Seeing this, Miss Jin was secretly happy. Except when Fan Mingyu looked over, he was more enthusiastic. At other times, she kept silent intentionally or unintentionally. Then, she calmly joined in the joking between her father, brother and Fan Mingyu, directly creating a kind of Shi Fuxin.
The atmosphere of isolation.
In the private room at the beginning, Fan Mingyu, Jin Shangshu, and Jin Jingcheng were sitting at the round table, while Shi Fuxin and Miss Jin were sitting on the chairs by the window.
But at some point, the Jin family, father and son, and Fan Mingyu were sitting at the round table. The four of them were chatting and laughing, and Fu Xin was sitting alone by the window.
When Fan Mingyu came to his senses from the laughter of the Jin family, he turned around and saw Shi Fuxin looking at him expressionlessly, with emotions in his eyes that he couldn't understand.
"Sixth sister!"
Fan Mingyu panicked, quickly stood up and sat next to Shi Fuxin, and quickly explained: "Uncle Jin and my father are old acquaintances. Uncle Jin is very knowledgeable. He was too immersed in the conversation without paying attention."
After saying that, when he saw that the tea in front of Shi Fuxin was gone, he poured her another cup himself.
Seeing how attentive Fan Mingyu was in front of Shi Fuxin, Miss Jin looked a little sad and the smile on her face became forced.
Jin Jingcheng couldn't see his sister being sad, and immediately laughed and said: "I didn't expect that the young prince would be so good at taking care of people in private. It's true that a hero is saddened by a beauty."
Fan Mingyu heard the joking in Jin Jingcheng's tone, looked a little uncomfortable, and put down his hand that originally wanted to bring snacks to Shi Fuxin.
When Shi Fuxin saw it, she looked at Fan Mingyu: "You and Mr. Jin have a really good relationship."
Fan Mingyu was stunned and didn't understand why Shi Fuxin said this.
Shi Fuxin smiled and explained to him: "Master Jin can make you change your mind with just one sentence, which shows how much you value him."
Fan Mingyu understood and looked more and more embarrassed.
Miss Jin quickly said: "Miss Shi, you misunderstood, my brother was just joking."
Shi Fuxin looked over: "But I don't find this joke funny at all."
Miss Jin didn't seem to expect that Shi Fuxin was so disrespectful. She immediately blushed and looked at Fan Mingyu weakly: "Miss Shi, I apologize to you on behalf of my brother. Don't be angry."
Shi Fuxin watched her performance silently and sneered: "Miss Jin, how can you tell that I am angry? Or do you think I should be angry?"
Miss Jin was stunned by the question and looked frightened.
When Jin Jingcheng saw his sister being bullied, he immediately wanted to speak. Unfortunately, before he could speak, he heard Jin Shangshu cough lightly.
After everyone had looked over, Jin Shangshu looked at Fan Mingyu pretending to be dissatisfied: "Little Marquis, I have been to the Marquis Mansion several times, but I have never drank your tea once."
Fan Mingyu gave Shi Fuxin a "stop making trouble" look, then awkwardly stood up, walked over and poured Jin Shangshu a cup of tea.
Jin Shangshu then showed a satisfied look and took an exaggerated sip: "The tea poured by different people has different tastes. Do you think that in the Marquis Mansion, the Marquis often poured tea for the princess?"
Fan Mingyu said with a smile: "My father is working outside, and my mother is more considerate. Therefore, it is usually my mother who pours tea for my father."
Jin Shangshu nodded: "Yes, yes, it's the same in our family. I've never poured tea for your aunt. It's your aunt who pours it for me."
At first, Fan Mingyu didn't understand that Jin Shangshu suddenly mentioned that his parents poured tea. After hearing this, he finally realized that Uncle Jin was accusing him in disguise of pouring tea for his sixth sister.
Shi Fuxin spoke up: "Mrs. Jin is so pitiful." Seeing Jin Shangshu look over with displeasure, she laughed, "Isn't it true? Mrs. Jin gave birth to children for Master Jin and helped him cook the food.
Is it possible that when you serve your parents, you don’t deserve to drink a cup of tea poured by Mr. Jin?”
Jin Jingcheng and Miss Jin were both ready to support their father, but when they heard Shi Fuxin's words, they were both a little stunned.
"Sixth sister, this is Master Shangshu."
Fan Mingyu couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he saw that Shi Fuxin's tone showed no respect for Jin Shangshu and there was undisguised sarcasm on her face. He felt that she was a little ignorant and actually embarrassed people in public, making them unable to get off the stage.
.
Shi Fuxin glanced at him and ignored him, but turned her attention to Jin Shangshu: "I know, on the day of the Huangshang election, I was deeply impressed by Jin Shangshu."
As the Minister of Household Affairs, Jin Shangshu prides himself on being somewhat dignified, but at this moment, seeing the girl from the Shi family looking at him without fear, although he is a little unhappy, he pays more attention to it.
"I was also very impressed by the four girls who participated in the election that day."
Shi Fuxin smiled: "On the day of the election, Master Shangshu controlled all the merchants who were running for election. His method and ability really impressed me. But what surprised my little girl was that in private, Master Shangshu's desire for control was also great.
So strong."
"Brother Mingyu doesn't care who he is willing to serve tea to, even the Marquis and the princess. Lord Shangshu can't stand it."
Hearing this, Jin Shangshu's face suddenly darkened.
Fan Mingyu recalled the dispute with Shi Fuxin because he mentioned the Huangshang election again. Now that he saw Shi Fuxin speaking so carelessly and not saving anyone's face, the dissatisfaction in his heart became somewhat uncontrollable.'
He stood up suddenly and looked at Shi Fuxin, trying hard to suppress his anger.
"Sixth sister, how could you talk to Uncle Jin like this? Please apologize to me."
Shi Fuxin looked at Fan Mingyu in astonishment: "What did you say?"
Miss Jin quickly stepped forward and said, "Little Marquis, please don't be angry. I don't think Miss Shi meant to be disrespectful to her father."
Fan Mingyu spoke up again: "Sixth sister, apologize to Uncle Jin."
Shi Fuxin also stood up and looked straight at Fan Mingyu: "Fan Mingyu, I didn't hear what you just said. Say it again."
Fan Mingyu didn't expect Shi Fuxin's attitude, and said with a disappointed face: "Sixth sister, I really didn't expect you to be such a person!"
Shi Fuxin's eyes darkened: "Can you tell me what kind of person I am?"
Jin Jingcheng also came over to win over Fan Mingyu: "Okay, little Marquis, the girl's family is bound to have some petty tendencies. My father won't be as knowledgeable as Miss Shi, so don't be angry."
Looking at Fan Mingyu who was pulled aside by Jin Jingcheng, Shi Fuxin sneered: "Fan Mingyu, I really didn't expect you to be such a person!" After saying that, she was ready to leave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the private room door opened, I saw Xiahou Huanyan and Prince Gong.
"Sister Xin, it's really you!"
"It seems that the maid next to me was right. You really arrived early."
Xiahou smiled happily and took Shi Fuxin's arm. Then he looked at the other people in the private room and said in surprise: "Hey, are there anyone else here?" He said, looking at Shi Fuxin, "You guys also made an appointment.
Others? I thought it was just the four of us going shopping together, why didn’t you tell me in advance?”
Shi Fuxin glanced at Fan Mingyu indifferently: "I'm also surprised that there are other people."
The Jin family was here because of him. Seeing that Shi Fuxin did not save any face for him, Fan Mingyu was a little embarrassed and a little unhappy.
At this time, the girl from the Jin family came over.
Miss Jin first greeted Xiahou happily, and Prince Gong saw the ceremony, and then smiled and said: "I have long heard that Miss Xiahou and Miss Shi San are on good terms, but I never thought that Miss Xiahou and Miss Shi Liu are such good friends."
."
The choice of An Guozheng's wife, the Empress Dowager chose the third girl of the Shi family over Xia Hou's good looks. This has long been a joke in the circle of nobles. Now Miss Jin mentioned it again. First, it was to make Xia Hou happy and look ugly. Second, well, it was
In order to drive a wedge between Xiahou Huanyan and Shi Fuxin.
Xia Hou looked at Miss Jin with a faint smile: "I always only follow my heart when making friends. For example, Miss Jin and I can never get together no matter what."
Miss Jin looked stunned.
Xia Hou Huanyan continued to smile and said: "If you can't steal it yourself, you will bring in helpers. Three of them will bully one. Only the kind of shameless people can do this."
These words have some meaning, but everyone who can understand understands them.
The Jin family father and son both had dark faces at the same time.
Shi Fuxin looked at Xia Hou Huanyan with bright eyes, not hiding her happiness and admiration.
Prince Gong, on the other hand, had a headache. His future wife's fighting ability was beyond his expectation. Looking at the livid-faced Jin family father and son, he could only smile and deal with the aftermath: "It's true that the sun has come out in the west. How can we meet him in the West City?"
To the busy Jin Shangshu."
Although Prince Gong had no real power, he was a real prince. The Jin family father and son did not dare to neglect him and greeted Prince Gong with a smile.
While the three of them were saying hello, Shi Fuxin and Xiahou Huanyan left directly.
When Prince Gong saw it, he glanced at Fan Mingyu, said nothing, and left.
When Fan Mingyu saw Shi Fuxin leaving without saying hello, he endured it again and again, and finally hurriedly said something to the Jin family and his son, and quickly chased out.
The North Canal flows through the north gate of the West Market. The weather was sultry. After leaving the teahouse, Shi Fuxin and Xiahou Huanyan came to the river to enjoy the breeze.
"Master Fan Xiaohou grew up in Liaodong and often stayed in military camps. He may not know much about the methods used by female relatives to compete for favor. You must not have a grudge against him because of the Jin family."
Fu Xin looked bad when Xia Hou saw Huan Yan, so she couldn't help but try to persuade her
Shi Fuxin shook her head: "The matter between Fan Mingyu and I has nothing to do with outsiders. Even if we don't meet the Jin family today, he and I will have problems sooner or later."
Xia Hou Huanyan: "Two people will have problems getting along with each other. Let's get along with each other."
Shi Fuxin: "What if we can't get along?"
Xia Hou Huanyan: ".Then it depends on who cares about whom more."
Shi Fuxin looked at Xia Hou Huanyan and sighed: "Experience is still very important. After all, theory and practice cannot be compared."
Xiahou Huanyan was angry: "I was comforting you, but you stabbed me in the heart!"
Shi Fuxin quickly smoothed her hair: "Don't be angry, don't be angry, I don't mean anything else, I just think it's necessary to fall in love more times."
Xiahou Huanyan was about to say something when she saw Crown Prince Gong and Fan Mingyu coming over. She hummed. Seeing that Fan Mingyu wanted to talk to Shi Fuxin, she took the initiative to step back and walked slowly behind Prince Gong.
.
"Sixth sister, are you angry?"
"What do you think?"
"I know that I have neglected you a little today, but don't you think your attitude towards Uncle Jin and the others is very unfriendly? You shouldn't just walk away without saying a word!"
Shi Fuxin stopped and looked at Fan Mingyu: "Then don't you see that the Jin family is also very unfriendly to me?"
Fan Mingyu said hurriedly: "Uncle Jin is the elder. As juniors, it won't be too difficult for us to just follow their wishes."
Shi Fuxin sneered: "Uncle Jin, what you call is so affectionate. You two have a good relationship. He is your uncle, but he has nothing to do with me. They manipulate me in their words, so of course I have to reciprocate.
Go back."
Fan Mingyu's brows knitted into knots: "Sixth sister, I really didn't expect your temper to be so fierce."
Shi Fuxin looked at him: "Fan Mingyu, I have never been a person who would compromise. If anyone makes me unhappy, I will definitely pay him back twice as much."
Fan Mingyu: "For me, can't you change something?"
Shi Fuxin was silent for a moment, then said firmly: "No, because this is who I am."
Fan Mingyu smiled bitterly: "It seems that in your heart, I really am not important at all." After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave.
"Fan Mingyu!"
Shi Fuxin stopped him.
Fan Mingyu heard that Shi Fuxin's tone softened, and felt happy. He hesitated for a moment before turning to look at Shi Fuxin.
Shi Fuxin looked at Fan Mingyu: "Fan Mingyu, I'm sorry, I have never been a gentle and virtuous lady. We are not suitable."
Fan Mingyu was stunned and stared blankly at Shi Fuxin walking away.
Xiahou Huanyan did not expect that the two would have a fight, so she hurriedly ran after Shi Fuxin.
Prince Gong looked at the stupid Fan Mingyu and patted him on the shoulder sympathetically: "Fan Mingyu, I'm not blaming you, you brought this on yourself."
Fan Mingyu numbly turned his head to look at Prince Gong: "I don't understand."
Prince Gong sighed: "You are just stupid!"
"When you were at the teahouse, you didn't even understand which side you were on, and you actually helped the Jin family deal with the girl from the Shi family. If she didn't dump you, who would she dump?"
Fan Mingyu sternly denied: "I didn't."
Prince Gong: "Don't deny it, I can see it clearly as a bystander. As the person involved, Miss Shi must have felt it much more clearly than me."
"You are really not unjust."
"For girls, things are never right or wrong, only whether you treat them or not."
"Obviously, when you were in the teahouse, you were looking towards the Jin family."
Fan Mingyu shook his head: "I didn't. It was clearly the sixth sister who didn't take me seriously, so why did it become my fault?" After saying that, he glanced at Shi Fuxin's back, rolled up his sleeves and walked in the opposite direction.
