Chapter 1287: Chapter 1287: Attracting Won’s Affection
Su Yunjin felt a surge of secret delight.
Jiang Zhizhi and the others were thus sent packing by the Prince’s wife.
Prince Ning stood by Gu Yan’s side. At first, Prince Ning had planned to personally settle this matter, but since the Prince’s wife was taking charge, Prince Ning no longer intervened.
He let the Prince’s wife handle it.
After dealing with Jiang Zhizhi and the others, the Prince’s wife turned to Su Yunjin, “Mrs. Su, I’m sorry for what you had to endure today. To prevent such incidents in the future, I will announce again at the banquet later that I’m recognizing you as my sworn sister. Once we report this to the Old Prince’s wife during the banquet and officially go through the formalities, you will then be my sworn sister.”
The title of the Prince’s wife’s sworn sister was not an ordinary honor. The Prince’s wife was willing to confer such a high status on Su Yunjin. If it hadn’t been for Su Yunjin’s difficult childbirth, not only could she have been at risk, but even the child might not have been saved. Su Yunjin had not only saved her child but also her life.
Since Su Yunjin saved her and her child’s lives, the Prince’s wife was certainly willing to grant Su Yunjin a status that everyone would respect. Su Yunjin thought the Prince’s wife just said those words in passing and didn’t expect that she would actually formally recognize her as a sworn sister. Su Yunjin subconsciously wanted to decline.
“No, no, no, Your Highness, how can this be right? The status of your sworn sister is too precious. How can I, a re tavern keeper, beco the sworn sister of the Prince’s wife?” Becoming the sworn sister of the Prince’s wife would elevate her status, but at the sa ti, it would make her more conspicuous, and Su Yunjin did not wish to beco the center of attention.
Throughout history, those who were the focus always had no good end – it is the prominent one who gets shot, and Su Yunjin didn’t want to be that target. The Prince’s wife was kind, and Su Yunjin was willing to have more interaction with her, but becoming the Prince’s wife’s sworn sister was sothing Su Yunjin had truly never considered. Su Yunjin refused.
The Prince’s wife feigned anger, “Mrs. Su? Do you not wish to beco my sworn sister? Or do you feel that becoming my sworn sister is beneath you?”
“How could that be? To beco Your Highness’s sworn sister is my honor,” Su Yunjin said hastily.
The Prince’s wife smiled, “That’s right, Mrs. Su. Just do as I say, and after today, you will be my sworn sister.”
What else did Su Yunjin want to say? But she was stopped by a look from Gu Ya. In Gu Ya’s view, there was nothing wrong with his little wife becoming the Prince’s wife’s sworn sister.
Although Gu Ya did not care for these vain titles, he also did not want his little wife to be looked down upon when he was not around. With the title of the Prince’s wife’s sworn sister, the average person in the town would no longer dare to disrespect or underestimate his little wife. Anything that was to the little wife’s advantage,
Gu Ya generally would not refuse.
With a look from Gu Ya, Su Yunjin did not speak further and silently accepted the Prince’s wife’s kindness. With a joyful expression, the Prince’s wife took Su Yunjin’s hand and led her towards the front courtyard.
“Mrs. Su, from today on, you are my dear sister,” said the Prince’s wife, who truly liked Su Yunjin and was very happy to take her as her sworn sister.
The Little Prince’s full moon celebration was very grand. Following the Prince’s wife to the front courtyard, Su Yunjin saw the Prince for the first ti. Dressed in a light yellow brocade robe, the Prince looked noble, just as his title suggested. The Prince was also exceedingly handso, with features like jade and eyes like peach blossoms.
His glistening eyes were particularly captivating, and just one look could make a woman’s heart flutter and mind wander.
