Tyrannical Wang's Beloved Wife Chapter 134.1: Everyone Has Gathered

Chapter 134.1: Everyone Has Gathered

Because she didn’t lift her head, one only saw those teardrops fall downward onto the ground, appearing extremely pitiful.
Jing Wan sometimes felt, was she too good-tempered, that’s why people would always want to step on her? “Someone come, prepare a horse carriage, and have this young miss sent to the Ding Duke Manor.”
“Don’t——Luo third miss, Gentleman Lin, he doesn’t like me. If I go to the Ding Duke Manor, he will definitely let me abort the fetus. I’ve liked him since I was twelve, but I know, I don’t have the qualifications to be his wife. I wanted to forget him, but I was unable to. And by a chain of coincidences, there was a short-lasting spring[1] between us. Originally, I thought this was enough. Even if I was told to die immediately, I would all be willing. I was already prepared to leave the capital to live in solitude for the rest of my life, but, but………” The girl covered her stomach, being very careful, “I know this is all my fault, but this child is innocent, won’t you let him live? I’m willing to serve you like a cow and horse, and if you are unable to tolerate me, once I give birth to this child, I can leave. I promise I won’t appear again. Otherwise, you can leave the child, kill the mother…………….”
“These things, what does it have to do with me?” Jing Wan indifferently spoke.
The girl blanked, “You’re his fiancee, his future di wife. If you’re willing to spare this child, then I believe he will also……………..”
Jing Wan suddenly laughed, “What made you feel I will………..”
“Wan Wan.” Luo Old Madam called out to stop her. She for the most part already predicted what Jing Wan was going to say next. If actually said out loud, it’ll be detrimental to her reputation. Although Luo Old Madam simply wasn’t worried about Jing Wan’s marriage arrangements right now, getting gossiped by outsiders would still make her very angry. She pulled Jing Wan behind her and went forward, perfectly blocking Jing Wan’s lower half. Jing Wan also understood her grandmother’s intentions and rather perceptively moved back. “Seeing you like this, not entering the Luo family gates and unwilling to leave until you achieve your goal, fine, since even you don’t want this face of yours anymore, then our Luo family losing a bit of face isn’t that big of a deal either.”
The girl bit her lip, humiliation flashing through her eyes.
Luo Old Madam remained unmoved, “Since you’re able to recognize our family’s third girl at a glance, presumably it isn’t as simple as just having seen her before, and should have somewhat of an understanding, so presumably, you’re not just some commoner girl either. Speak, which family are you from? ————You don’t dare go to the Ding Duke Manor, yet dare to come to our Luo Manor, is it because you feel our Luo family is relatively easy to bully?” Their family had just came out with a ‘family reputation ruining’ shameless thing, and now, another one appeared, even specifically coming to ruin Wan Wan’s reputation. Luo Old Madam right now can be said to be burning in fury, “I rather want to see, which family raised such a ‘good young lady’ like yourself.”
“Old Madam, this one knows you’re very angry, but this one had no choice, coming to the end of one’s path, thus would make such a desperate……….”
“Which family?” Luo Old Madam raised her voice, her gaze sharpening.
“My father is the Right Commander-in-Chief, Shen Shu Han.”
Right Commander-in-Chief, Shen Shu Han, Noble Consort Su’s older cousin from her maternal uncle’s family, Noble Consort Su faction’s iron rod. Presumably, this was just a shu daughter, and even the kind that wasn’t all that favored. After all, even if the Shen family were mortal enemies with the Ding Duke Manor, the younger generation not interacting that much, it still wasn’t likely for Sun Yi Jia to not even recognize the Shen family’s di-born young misses.
“Right Commander-in-Chief? Good, very good. ——–Someone come, go to the Right Commander Manor and Ding Duke Manor, and invite the two family’s matriarch over for a chat.” Luo Old Madam promptly ordered. This already wasn’t a problem between two people, but rather something that involved three large families, or to put it on an even bigger scale, might even involve the various conspiracies and plots of the imperial court.
Perhaps, this matter just targeted Wan Wan, but by raising it to the magnitude of affecting the Luo family’s face, it can lessen the impact towards Wan Wan as much as possible. One has to know, peeling a person’s face and peeling a family clan’s face was two different matters. If not handled well, the families might just become enemies.
Luo Old Madam didn’t know what role Jin Qinwang played in this. Was it that from beginning to end, everything was all schemed by him, or was it like the incident with Min boy previously, just pushing other people’s schemes along. However, presumably, the latter’s possibility was higher. After all, if this was completely planned, it’ll be very easily seen through by others, and won’t be able to reach that expected result. Additionally, according to his care towards Wan Wan, even if for the sake of ruining her marriage arrangements, he still wouldn’t make Wan Wan lose face like this.
Luo Old Madam coldly glanced at that Miss Shen. Turning around, her complexion warmed a little, reaching out to pull Jing Wan’s hand, “Come, go back with grandmother.”
Jing Wan just followed along, coiling around her arm. Luo Old Madam patted her hand, and Jing Wan just lightly smiled. Getting slapped in the face like this, she was certainly angry, but she wasn’t heartbroken. Actually, Jing Wan’s first reaction was———-probably have to do as her sister-in-law desires and withdraw from the engagement. Since things were already like this, if this engagement were to still continue on, that would be even more strange, right?
One can well imagine, to dare directly come to the Luo Manor, she certainly must have backing, and this backing certainly wasn’t the Shen family. Afraid, even now, the Shen family is still unaware. After all, the Shen family still wants to rope in the Luo family. To dare come and offend the Luo family like this, unless one’s brain was broken, then her backup can only come from the Ding Duke Manor, and who from the Ding Duke Manor finds her unpleasant to the eyes, was there even the need to say? To make things difficult for her again and again, did she really think she(JW) was unable to marry and must marry her son no matter what? Besides, Jing Wan really didn’t have any interest in becoming a mother as soon as she marries in. Thus, there was nothing more to say.
Since Luo Old Madam said to go back, the rest of the Luo family naturally didn’t dare to continue staying, all retreating one after another. Afterwards, with a thud, the front gate was shut tight, just leaving Miss Shen kneeling in the same spot all alone, as well as the spectators nearby.
This kind of result, more or less made one somewhat surprised.
Miss Shen, for the sake of achieving her goal, can be said to be unscrupulous. One has to know, getting pregnant before marriage, and having such a thing exposed, for a girl, can be considered fatal. However, since she dared to do this, then naturally she had her own confidence.
Because their positions were different, the Shen family and the Ding Duke Manor can be said to be like fire and water. Never mind the two families having marriage ties, it wasn’t even possible for them to walk a little close. But, under such circumstances, she got pregnant with Sun Yi Lin’s child, and this child was precisely her bargaining chip and also the excuse for the Shen family to come make trouble for the Ding Duke Manor. Thus, even if she implicated the reputations of the other young misses of the Shen family, for the sake of washing clean the Shen family’s reputation, she won’t be punished by her family either. Her family in fact will even do everything to have her sent into the Ding Duke Manor, and this will be more than enough for her. Once she enters the Ding Duke Manor, she won’t have to worry about the child anymore, because the Ding Duchess promised her, she can safely give birth to her child, she will become the noble concubine of the person she admires, and her child won’t be denounced either. Moreover, the Ding Duchess doesn’t like Luo third miss, so how it will be in the future, it really is hard to say.
(T/N: Basically the only way for the Shen family to clean their hands of this matter is to push all the blame onto Sun Yi Lin, because if they punish her, it will look like she’s the one at fault, which will look bad for their reputation.)
Thinking to here, she, who was originally feeling embarrassed from being pointed at and criticized by others, slowly relaxed, tightly clenching the embroidered pouch at her waist. Inside was half a palm-sized piece of warm jade…………
This Miss Shen may have her confidence now, but she was completely unaware of the most crucial point, and that is, the person she likes, just so happens to like Luo third miss. The women of the rear court, ninety-nine percent of them, the root of their standing comes from their own husband. Even if she enters the Ding Duke Manor, when Sun Yi Lin sees her, afraid he would want to strangle her to death.
“Wan Wan, this matter, what do you think of it?”
“What’s there still to think about, naturally it’s……….” Jing Wan looked to Luo Old Madam and paused for a moment, “Grandmother can deal with it as you see fit.”
“Alright, grandmother understands.” This engagement undoubtedly will be canceled, and looking again to Jing Wan, Luo Old Madam also saw in her eyes the same intention. Thus, it naturally can’t be better.
[1] This is lingo for one-night stand
T/N: I just realized after the fact that this matter actually is like two birds with one stone. The Shen family’s di son was who Noble Consort Su originally wanted to pair Jing Wan up with, but this matter will thoroughly ruin any chance of that happening if the two families become enemies.
Also come come place your bets, do you think a) Miss Shen is not pregnant and faking it, b) She’s pregnant with someone else’s child and pinning it on SYL, c) She’s actually pregnant with Sun Yi Lin’s child, or d) other, anything is possible. Also do not post actual spoilers! If you know already then just keep quiet, don’t ruin it for others.
And one last thing, the true purpose of this scheme, from the different people’s perspectives, is most likely different than what you think it is for. It’s supposed to be simple, but also not that simple.
