Chapter 455: Some Thoughts Can’t Be Instilled

After the banquet, the people of the Ding Duke Manor hurriedly said their goodbyes. As such, it just appeared even more abnormal. Then, when looking to Sun Yi Jia again, everyone’s eyes carried a trace of pity. The heavens, sure enough, were impartial. No matter what, there will still be unsatisfying areas. As such, they more or less felt a little balanced inside.

Those of the Ding Duke Manor acting abnormal, others won’t care, but Jing Wan won’t disregard. However, she believed, the things she can think of, her own husband was also able to think of. As such, there was no need for her to do anything. However, Jing Wan nevertheless recalled another matter. During the Emperor’s birthday, the matter regarding the revive, she once suspected Sun Old Madam, but there wasn’t any results from their investigation. As such, the origins of the revive was still unclear.

Jing Wan contemplated the possibility of directly going through Sun Old Madam for an answer. Her gaze landed on Sun Yi Jia. Perhaps she can let this best friend sister-in-law take her little niece back to go see Sun Old Madam?

Just, everyone was smart. Some things, without needing to say very clearly, one was just able to have a rough idea. As such, the things that will be exposed might be a bit much. No matter how distant Sun Old Madam was with the Empress and Kang Qinwang, that was still her biological daughter and outer grandson. Even if not supporting them, she still won’t do something to harm them either. Thinking of it like this, the origins of the revive, perhaps they’d also guessed wrong? Also, having her sister-in-law dragged into this matter, was it wise?

Jing Wan deeply contemplated, the time a bit long, getting noticed by Sun Yi Jia. Looking back, she lightly smiled, “Wan…….Wangfei has something on the mind?” She could tell, her mood wasn’t affected by those sister-in-laws of hers.

Jing Wan lightly shook her head, “No, just thought of certain matters, and for a moment, was a bit lost in thought.”

There were still that many guests present after all, so the things they should pay attention to, they still needed to pay attention to. Between the two of them, they naturally can’t be as intimate as usual. However, even so, compared to the others, they were still a lot more casual.

Time slowly passed little by little. The guests also took their leave in succession. The ones remaining towards the end were for the most part those that were relatively close in relationship.

Sun Yi Jia temporarily didn’t have anything to do, so can spare some time to chat with Jing Wan. Just, before she could even go to Jing Wan’s side, her servant girl came to inform her that her father was looking for her.

Oh, that’s right, the womenfolk of the Ding Duke Manor had left, but the men outside were still steadily sitting there. And at this time, Sun Yi Jia finally learned that her own father, in front of her husband, had fully put on the airs of a father-in-law, and in front of that many guests, had himself displayed highly.

Sun Yi Jia deeply detested inside. For a qualifying father-in-law, even if one’s son-in-law has some problems, one would still correct in private. Towards the outside, perhaps not praising and supporting in all kinds of ways, but one should at least still give enough face. Of course, if it was the kind that was completely hopeless, then never mind, but her husband, although not perfect, was definitely still a good man, filial and respectful towards his elders, friendly and affectionate towards his brothers and sister, and protective and loving towards his wife and child. He himself was also ambitious, his temper also good, and under normal circumstances, encountering this kind of son-in-law, one should be grinning from happiness. But, it was very obvious, her parents both weren’t the normal type.

Sun Yi Jia expressionlessly went to see her father. Towards this father, her impression of him was even worse than her mother’s by a hundredfold. Especially after marrying into the Luo family and having the Luo family as a comparison, this kind of feeling was just even more distinct.

Her father-in-law wasn’t a good father and can’t be considered a good husband either. He appeared like the clear moonlit breeze, but in reality, it was mostly just irresponsibly pursuing his own hobbies. Of course, this was the former him. However, in Sun Yi Jia’s eyes, even like this, he was still much better than her own father, let alone now. Her father-in-law was changing, working hard to change himself for his family, yet that father of hers was still that way, sinking deeper down that original path, never considering turning back, or perhaps, he just completely didn’t recognize his own mistakes.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt. How come she just has this kind of parents?

Gradually, she suppressed her anger. She had this kind of parents, but she was also very fortunate, no?

Jing Wan did see Sun Yi Jia approach but walk off again, and shortly after, she also learned the reason.

That was a duke manor that rose from a thousand year old influential family. Should say that this inevitably conformed with the law of prosperity and decline, or should one feel a trace of sorrow? After all, for the Ding Duke Manor to have ended up like this today, as the current Ding Duke, he actually had an inescapable blame. Some things and some decisions were just wrong from the start.

This while, there weren’t any outsiders by Jing Wan’s side, but there was a shadow ‘sneakily’ approaching from behind, seemingly wanting to scare Jing Wan. However, how could the people guarding by Jing Wan’s side let her have her way.

After receiving an indication, Jing Wan turned around, and afterwards, just smiled, “Older cousin.”

Yuan Qiao Qiao perfunctorily bowed, and afterwards, sat down by Jing Wan’s side.

As soon as Jing Wan arrived in the Luo Manor, she just participated in Xuan’er’s grabbing ceremony, and afterwards, just stayed cooped up in the Elegant Haitang Residence with Li Hong Yuan. The others, she for the most part didn’t come in contact with. And during the banquet feast, because of the seating, those that were on good terms with her all didn’t have the qualifications to sit by her side. Yuan Qiao Qiao also could only approach at this time. However, her spirit was lacking.

Yuan Qiao Qiao has always been a carefree, lively, and even somewhat eccentric girl. Although after marrying, she has restrained herself a little, but every time seeing her, she was always full of spirit, very rarely seeing her like this.

“Older cousin, what’s wrong?” Jing Wan asked.

“What can it be, just the matter of children. It’s almost half a year since I’ve married, but still haven’t gotten pregnant. Because of maternal grandfather and you, that mother-in-law of mine, for the time being, still haven’t dared to shove people in our room, but I suppose it’ll be soon, seemingly already picking from those pretty servant girls of hers that can easily bear children.”

The relationship between the wife and concubines, and the conflict between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, were forever an unhappy topic.

Jing Wan lightly frowned. This kind of thing, one can get involved in, but it also wasn’t easy to meddle in. Speaking from a certain angle, the capital magistrate’s madam wasn’t doing anything wrong, because many families were all like this. Moreover, she wasn’t harsh to her daughter-in-law, and in certain aspects, she was still very good to her daughter-in-law. If just because she gave her son a tongfang, one just charge through the gates, then that would really be too aggressive, and regardless of where, all unreasonable. Especially under the premise where her older cousin didn’t have a child, it was further unreasonable. Although half a year really wasn’t long, but in certain people’s eyes, it wasn’t short either. If it was doing this kind of thing in three months, then it was still possible to criticize.

Most importantly, Jing Wan can’t have her certain way of thinking instilled into her. If not mature enough, then it will just be out of place. That way, perhaps it will cause the opposite effect, letting older cousin live even more painfully. Moreover, she may not necessarily have the ability to bear all of this. Rather than that, it was better to let her be the same as other women. As long as she’s around, her husband’s family won’t cross the line.

Every era all had its own characteristics. Even if having unreasonable areas, based on a single person’s power alone, it was very difficult to change. Especially given her current position, she further can’t act rashly.

That’s why, this matter really wasn’t easy to solve. For the time being, Jing Wan can only console her.

However, it was clear, Yuan Qiao Qiao wasn’t that weak, because her husband still stood on her side. That’s why, when facing Jing Wan, she was able to toss aside those unpleasant matters, “Younger cousin, say, if I’d married older cousin Jing Bo, how great would that be. How come I just didn’t have that good of a fate, encountering that good of a husband, encountering a sensible and reasonable in-law family?”

Jing Wan who was also bit down because of her just now instantly choked, “I dare you to have these words said in front of your cousin-in-law, and see what kind of reaction she will have.”

Yuan Qiao Qiao’s face instantly changed, “Joking, just joking! Towards older cousin Jing Bo, I have never thought about before in the slightest. In the past, I didn’t know he would be this kind of good man, purely just envisioning someone similar to him. Younger cousin, you better not speak carelessly. If cousin-in-law really were to misunderstand, her having a falling out with me would all be light. I’m afraid she’ll eat me alive.” Yuan Qiao Qiao gave a scared look.

Jing Wan let out a laugh, “Older cousin is still this unfiltered in speaking. If someone else were to hear these words, or didn’t hear all of it, making all kinds of assumptions, don’t know how big of a mess it will stir up.”

Yuan Qiao Qiao also knew that her words just now were indeed inappropriate, her expression a bit embarrassed, “About that, sitting here with you, having that many people guarding in the surrounding, who can still eavesdrop? The people by your side should still be trustworthy.”

Jing Wan was also helpless.

Yuan Qiao Qiao although wasn’t feeling well inside, she didn’t cling onto this matter too much.

Sun Yi Jia returned much quicker than expected. Just, her complexion wasn’t too good. After sitting down, she first downed a cup of tea.

Jing Wan and Yuan Qiao Qiao glanced at one another, but didn’t speak.

“Do you know why he was looking for me? They want the Luo family’s support. They let me go look for grandfather to speak favorably for them…………”
