Chapter 59 You are my wife first Nephew and daughter-in-law? The man in front of him looked to be less than thirty, and he inherited the Qin family's handsome appearance, with healthy wheat-colored skin, a straight body, and neat and free movements.
That's right to call him uncle.
Shen Manzhi raised his eyes politely, "Uncle, the most appropriate thing to do is to ask the maid to bring my clothes and ask her to take me to change clothes."
She looked at the smile in the man's eyes and said coldly, "It's not like this, which makes people suspicious."
Qin Juan took back his hand and seemed to laugh angrily at her, "Teach me how to do things?"
She lowered her eyes and caressed Ruan Ruan, and said in a perfunctory tone, "I don't dare."
Qin Juan's eyes stayed on the woman for a while, then he hummed softly, put his suit on the sofa, turned around and went out.
Ruan Ruan hugged Shen Manzhi's legs, moaning and asking for his mother.
Shen Manzhi coaxed Ruan Ruan to play here for a while, and a maid came in at the door holding clothes and a towel in her hand.
"Young mistress, put on your clothes quickly. I will take you to the second young master's room to change."
She turned her head and glanced at the coat left by the man, then took her own coat and said, "Thank you."
He wiped the water off his clothes with a towel, put on his coat, buttoned it up, picked up Ruan Ruan and followed the maid out.
Passing by the hall, someone in the chess room cast a direct gaze on her, and Shen Manzhi walked upstairs without looking away.
"Seventh brother, what are you looking at?"
The man standing aside followed Qin Juan's gaze, but only saw the beautiful calves under the skirt of the woman who stepped on the stairs.
Qin Juan turned away and looked at the chess game, half-smiling but not smiling, "It's nothing."
The maid took her to the end of the second floor and handed her the key, "This is the second young master's room. There are the latest seasonal clothes in the closet. Madam, please go change clothes quickly, be careful not to catch a cold."
She had entered Qin Yanfeng's room in the old house two days ago, and it was here that they signed the marriage agreement.
Shen Manzhi took the key and thanked her. Ruan Ruan was carried over by the maid, "I will carry the little lady to find the third lady."
Xiaotuanzi groaned twice and opened his hands to Shen Manzhi in the maid's arms, intending to pounce on her.
"Sister...hug..."
The maid protected Ruan Ruan's body and smiled awkwardly.
Shen Manzhi opened the door. She was still wet. He turned around and hugged Ruan Ruan, placing it on the ground and hooking her little hand.
"Let her stay here. Just go and inform my aunt."
The maid responded, closed the door and left the room.
The room in gray and cool colors is decorated with festive paper-cuts, and there is an oversized "囍" beside the floor-to-ceiling window in the front.
Shen Manzhi knelt down and stretched out his hand to scratch Ruan Ruan's nose, smiling lazily, "Do you like sister?"
Xiaotuanzi looked at her with round eyes, nodded obediently, and then pointed to her clothes, "Cold."
Shen Manzhi led her to the wardrobe. There were new seasonal styles, all from well-known designer brands. She chose a pale pink dress, which was both decent and not too showy.
Ruan Ruan was sitting on the sofa shaking her legs. When she saw Shen Manzhi coming out, he ran to her side and said in a sweet voice, "Sister, you are beautiful!"
Shen Manzhi knelt down and rubbed her face, smiling contentedly, "Ruan Ruan is also super beautiful."
Xiaotuanzi is really good at talking, but he also has a really soft personality and can be picked up and bullied by anyone.
Shen Manzhi didn't want to go downstairs, so he hugged Ruan Ruan and sat on the sofa. He took the mobile phone in his handbag and prepared to send a message to Qin Yanfeng, asking him to call his aunt over.
The handbag was handed over to the maid, and Qin Yanfeng called her half an hour ago and sent a message asking where she was.
She called back, and the man's voice on the speaker sounded clear and empty, "I just arrived at the old house, wait for me in the room... aunt."
Shen Manzhi heard Qin Zhen's voice on the other side of the phone, "Didn't you come back after asking for lunch?"
"It ended early," he seemed to have entered the elevator, his voice a little muffled, "Thank you for your hard work."
Shen Manzhi pursed his lips, and Ruan Ruan held the rabbit toy on his clothes to show her. She lowered her eyes and thought of the arrogant cat.
Qin Yanfeng rushed back from Xiangjiang, wearing a business-type shirt and trousers under a black coat, looking serious and a little abstinent.
Qin Zhen followed, and Shen Manzhi carried Ruan Ruan over, "Auntie."
Xiaotuanzi rushed towards Qin Zhen with a smile on his face.
"How did you change your clothes?"
Qin Zhen looked at the pink dress on her body, which was different from when she came.
Qin Yanfeng glanced at Shen Manzhi up and down. She had fair skin and looked most gentle in Shen Manzhi could speak, Xiaotuanzi beat him to it.
Ruan Ruan pointed at her clothes, eyes twitching, "Little brother... bullying my sister."
Qin Yanfeng's expression was slightly cold, and he bent down to look at Ruan Ruan's level, and said in a gentle tone, "Which little brother?"
Ruan Ruan rolled his eyes, "...Brother Zihan."
Qin Zhen frowned and said, "The youngest grandson of my second uncle's family, he is very pampered by his family."
"Auntie, please take Ruan Ruan to play first, and I'll have a chat with her."
Qin Zhen hugged Ruan Ruan and walked out, "Okay, let's talk first. Don't forget that your father asked you to go to the study."
Qin Yanfeng took off his coat and put it on the hanger, "What did he spill on you?"
Shen Manzhi walked to the sofa and took out the small box in his handbag, and said casually, "A glass of cold water poured on me."
"This," she put the box on the coffee table, "you give it to my aunt for me as a small gift for Ruan Ruan."
Qin Yanfeng tilted his head and watched the woman let go of her long hair and walk towards the bathroom.
He walked over and leaned against the door, playing with something in his hand and looking casual, "Have you taught me a lesson?"
"My way of teaching is to retaliate in kind."
Shen Manzhi stood in front of the washstand, holding his long hair tied up with both hands. He turned his head and looked at him, his eyebrows slightly raised, exuding a faint aura of hostility, "Is that okay?"
Qin Yanfeng didn't think she was someone who could swallow her anger, "Of course."
"Don't you ask him why he poured water on me?"
Men take it more naturally than she does, "If you want to deal with a naughty child, do you still need a reason? Just scold him and hit him."
Shen Manzhi began to curl his hair in the mirror, calmed down the emotions in his eyes, and said calmly, "So, you married me to use me as a tool."
She even said it as a declarative sentence.
Qin Yanfeng's eyes fell on the woman's delicate, milky-white skin on the back of her neck, "Why do you say that?"
Naturally, it was because she only found out today that the people in the main branch of the Qin family were all complicated and chaotic. She seemed to have broken into a novice village of intrigues.
"Everyone in the elite circle knows that I am a willful, arrogant and domineering person. When dealing with a naughty child, I can scold or beat him. What's worse, I will make him not dare to mess with me in the future."
She tied her hair up, with her temples spread around her ears. She turned around and leaned against the sink, seeing through his intention of hiding the needle in his cotton wool. "That will definitely cause grievances among the elders, but my nature is like this, and there is nothing they can do about me. If someone is willing to mediate, he I can only endure it.”
"This time it was a naughty child, and in the future it may be the seventh aunt or the eighth aunt... In the end, I became the target of public criticism. From then on, I had a place in the internal fighting game."
She tilted her head and squinted her eyes slightly, and said in a bad tone, "I really can't be happy."
Shen Manzhi always had something to say, so he put the analysis in front of him one by one to see how he would explain it.
After Qin Yanfeng listened quietly, he smiled and walked towards her.
The man was tall, and he could place her between himself and the washstand by leaning over slightly, with his hands on both sides. His words were kind and his eyes were soft.
"That's the personality given to you by outsiders. Why should you listen to them and talk about yourself like that?"
Shen Manzhi bent his back with a mocking look on his face, "Don't you think so of me?"
Qin Yanfeng didn't know when he opened the thing in his hand, put his hand around her waist and lowered his head close to her, took her right hand, and put a diamond ring on her ring finger.
Shen Manzhi lowered his head and stared blankly. He wore a plain ring with a small pink diamond in the middle, which was luxurious and low-key.
What she just said was aggressive, but the man's tone was gentle and polite except for his behavior.
"Shen Manzhi, just be yourself."
He also said this on the day he went to meet Qin Demin and Chang Yu.
Be who you are, not who you are in the eyes of others.
Qin Yanfeng let her go, but still supported her on both sides, looking at the woman's naturally soft and beautiful eyes.
He explained seriously, "It is part of the purpose. I hope you will cooperate with me on some internal affairs of the Qin family, but you are not my pawn in the family's internal fighting game."
"You are my wife first," he lowered his eyes and looked at the ring in her hand, then raised his eyes to meet hers, "so, thank you for your hard work tonight."
Shen Manzhi looked into the man's bright and deep eyes, pursed his lips, and felt a little warm on his face.
Qin Yanfeng stared at her with a faint blush on her face, and said with an imperceptible smile, "What reward do you need to make you happy?"
