Cheng Yujin nodded obediently. Inwardly however, she thought: if she did nothing and waited for Cheng Yuanxian to finally offend the crown prince, wouldn’t she also suffer with them? Besides, who said that she came for Cheng family’s sake?

Cheng Yujin put this point forward as tactfully as possible: “Women obey their father, their husband, and finally their son. According to ancestral teaching, this is a natural order. But when one has to listen to father in one time, then to husband in another time, sometimes it’s really hard to tell who to follow.”

Cheng Yuanjing saw Cheng Yujin take out an embroidered pouch, and his eyes moved. He reached out to take the pouch and examined it closely. Although made from white cloth, its edges were embroidered with an auspicious cloud motif using silver thread. The embroideries in the middle were of pale blue and purple floral medallion motif. The embroidery wasn’t visible from afar, but looking up close, one could see how the light shone on every stitch. Dark and light intertwined, and each petal was embroidered extremely exquisite. Both sides of the ribbon used to tie the pouch were embedded with white jade, beautiful and elegant.

Cheng Yujin arranged the pastries on the small table one by one, then smiled at Cheng Yuanjing: “Ninth Uncle has worked hard these days. This niece especially prepared some snacks for you. My hand is clumsy. I hope Ninth Uncle won’t dislike.”

Cheng Yuanjing narrowed his eyes and stared at Cheng Yujin with an inquiring gaze. The smile on her face was unfazed, and her whole appearance looked gentle and harmless.

Cheng Yujin returned to her room. After being awakened in the middle of the night yesterday, she hadn’t been asleep. Last night, she spent all night in the deserted mourning hall. This morning, she was so busy welcoming and seeing off the guests that she didn’t even have the time to sit down and took a breath.

After spinning around all morning, she has been beaten up at noon. Her body was totally exhausted, and her legs felt so heavy. Cheng Yujin solely relied on her utter perseverance to not show her fatigue on the outside. But after all, she wasn’t made of iron. Her body couldn’t stand being tossed around all day and night. Under Cheng Yuanjing’s words, Cheng Yujin went back to her courtyard to take a rest. If the Old Madam inquired later, she could push Cheng Yuanjing out as a shield.

Lin Qingyuan walked with Cheng Yuanjing for a while, then he began to sigh in pity for the unfortunate girl. Because there were no other people here, Lin Qingyuan didn’t hold back and directly said: “Jingxing, speaking of your eldest niece, she is truly pitiful. She clearly has a complete family. But because she was adopted, she was trapped in the middle and didn’t have anyone who was truly close to her.”

After Cheng Yujin left and her figure was no longer visible, Lin Qingyuan was still staring at the moon gate covered with green foliages. Cheng Yuanjing saw Lin Qingyuan’s action in silence, and suddenly asked: “What are you looking at?”

Cheng Yuanjing glanced down at Cheng Yujin, who lowered her head even more, revealing only the top of her head. Cheng Yuanjing smiled slightly and said, “It depends on people. For some, it might be very hard to find the way here.”

Cheng Yujin shut up her mouth completely. Neither rebutting or explaining, or admitting her mistake. Lin Qingyuan finally realized something was wrong. He asked curiously: “Eldest Miss Cheng is still very lively just now. Why do you suddenly fell silent? Did my remarks perhaps offend you?”

When Cheng Yujin turned at the corner of the corridor and saw Cheng Yuanjing standing there, she was stupefied.

Cheng Yujin could hardly react, but Lin Qingyuan blinked in surprise and walked towards Cheng Yuanjing in joy: “Jingxing, so you are here! I’m just about to go to find you. Fortunately, eldest Miss Cheng is kind and takes me to your courtyard. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to find my way here.”

“Oh?” Cheng Yuanjing glanced at Cheng Yujin lightly. “Eldest girl is so kind as to help others?”

Lin Qingyuan accidentally ran into this kind of thing. According to etiquette, he should pretend nothing has happened and never mentioned it ever again. But Lin Qingyuan was really curious. He paused for some moment, and still couldn’t help asking: “Eldest Miss Cheng, I have a question. I wonder if this is appropriate or not?”

Cheng Yujin kept smiling while looking at Lin Qingyuan. She had calmly analyzed this young man several times before. The more she looked at Lin Qingyuan, the more satisfied she was. From the family background to his own ability and conducts, he was truly a great prospect.

Cheng Yujin didn’t expect Xu Zhixian to say this kind of thing, so she was a little surprised.

Cheng Yujin has always felt that Xu Zhixian was just a child. His likes and dislikes were clearly written on his face, and he always follows his preferences freely. Such a person was certainly not Cheng Yujin’s type. But for marriage, it was nothing. She only needed money and status.
