Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Chapter 342 I like it very much

Chu Junting looked at the clothes in his hand, a hint of surprise flashing in his dark, deep eyes, like a firework lighting up the night, and even his voice unconsciously rose slightly.

"Is this for me?"

Song Ruozhen met the man's intense gaze and nodded somewhat awkwardly.

damned!

Who could resist a gaze like that?

"I also prepared a set for the princess; we can't be biased!"

As Chu Junting listened to the woman's words, he chuckled softly, his Adam's apple bobbing, the corners of his lips curving slightly, and his dark, deep eyes seemed to be adorned with stars.

He understood that this garment was unique.

She sewed this herself.

"My embroidery skills aren't as good as a professional embroiderer's; I can't do overly complicated designs, so I keep it simple..."

Song Ruozhen couldn't help but explain that she was actually quite talented in this area. She could embroider ordinary things without any problem, but when it came to the level of embroidery skills of the imperial embroiderers or even the palace embroiderers, there was naturally a gap.

However, Chu Junting interrupted her before she could finish speaking.

"will not."

"I love so much."

Chu Junting looked at the clothes in his hand as if they were a treasure. When he looked up at her again, his dark eyes burned with a intensity that seemed to blaze like wildfire.

A smile also spread across Song Ruozhen's eyes. "It's good that Your Highness doesn't mind."

……

South city gate.

Just as Tang Xuening had promised yesterday, she brought a large number of meat buns early this morning.

"Miss Tang has arrived!"

"My goodness, Miss Tang brought so many meat buns! That's wonderful!"

When Tang Xuening saw the dense crowd at the south gate, her eyes were filled with shock. In just one night, the number of people far exceeded that of yesterday.

However, she soon became lost in the endless stream of thanks, with everyone praising her as if she were a living bodhisattva who saved the world from suffering.

"No wonder the Song family is so fond of distributing porridge; that's how they build up their good reputation."

Tang Xuening thought about the Song family's reputation in the capital over the years and immediately understood that it was really worth it to get it for just a little money!

"Miss, there are just too many people at the south gate today. I'm afraid other refugees heard the news and rushed over."

At this rate, I'm afraid we still won't have enough meat buns!

The manager couldn't help but worry as he looked at the grand scene before him. Although the praise was indeed pleasing, he felt that things were about to spiral out of their control as he looked at the vagrants who resembled bandits.

Within a short time, arguments and shoving broke out, and the staff in their household were overwhelmed with work.

"If it's not enough, then buy more. It's not like we're short of money, why be so stingy?"

Tang Xuening scoffed. Her status was far more noble than Song Ruozhen's. Could she possibly be less prestigious than Song Ruozhen in distributing porridge?

“Miss, I think it would be best to inform the Prime Minister about this matter and let him make a decision,” the steward said.

Upon hearing this, Tang Xuening's face hardened, and she said angrily, "What do you mean by that? Are you questioning my decision? I am the young lady, you better listen to me clearly!"

"If you dare disobey my orders, you'd better get out of the Tang residence, understand?"

The porridge distribution had just begun, and her father had instructed her to handle it perfectly. In a few days, her good reputation would spread throughout the capital, and her father would surely praise her!

"Give the order: don't tell my parents this news for now. Anyone who dares to spread it will be severely punished!"

"Yes, ma'am."

The manager looked helpless. The daily cost of distributing porridge alone was considerable, and the price of meat buns was even more astonishing. He would have to go to the treasury to withdraw more money soon...

Looking at the bustling scene at the south gate, Song Jingshen and Song Zhiyu clicked their tongues in amazement and said, "We've never seen such a grand spectacle before. The Tang family is truly wealthy and powerful!"

"Fourth brother, the Prime Minister is so capable, why did he make such a foolish mistake in this matter, allowing Tang Xuening to act so recklessly?"

Song Zhiyu looked puzzled. People who hadn't been in contact with him might not understand, but the Prime Minister couldn't possibly be unaware of the consequences of doing so.

Song Jingshen chuckled, "I heard that the Prime Minister got drunk last night, so he probably doesn't know about this yet."

If they had known, they certainly wouldn't have let her run wild. But things have already gotten this big, and even if they try to stop her now, it might be too late.

Let's take this opportunity to make some more money; the Tang family certainly doesn't lack it."

"The Tang family is giving out porridge, how are we supposed to earn money?" Song Jingshen asked in astonishment.

Song Jingshen raised an eyebrow. "You don't usually manage the business, so you wouldn't know. Don't you even think about what kind of business our mansion doesn't do?"

Whether it's a pork shop or a meat bun shop, we have them! The shop in the south of the city that the Tang family frequents is our Song family's.

Song Zhiyu: "...No wonder he's a shrewd businessman!"

"What do you know? She's willing to buy and we're willing to sell, that's a good thing! If we don't sell, the Tang family won't have enough, then there'll be a huge problem!"

Song Jingshen glanced at him and said, "Learn from me!"

……

For the next two days, Song Ruozhen rested peacefully at home.

The medicine Chu Junting brought was indeed very effective; the swelling subsided quickly after application. However, Liu Ruyan still told her to stay in the mansion and not to run around, lest it affect her recovery.

However, Song Ruozhen was well aware that her mother did this because the entire capital was talking about Tang Xuening.

Because of the hunting ground incident, Song Ruozhen was inevitably compared to Tang Xuening.

Recently, Tang Xuening has become famous in the capital. After the Song family removed the porridge stall at the south gate, the other stalls continued to distribute porridge, but they could not help but be ridiculed and cursed by the refugees.

People have repeatedly said that he is rich but heartless, petty and stingy.

Song Ruozhen didn't care about any of that. Thinking that her grandfather and Chu Junting would soon be leaving the capital, she simply stayed at home to make some pills and draw a few peace talismans.

In addition, she instructed people to prepare several more sets of silver needles to carry with her in case of emergency.

Bai Zhi and Qing Teng were both very intelligent. Although they were martial artists, they seemed very well-behaved and sensible when they were with her, so they did not arouse suspicion.

To the outside world, Song Ruozhen only said that she felt there were not enough people to serve her, so she bought two more maids.

Since the family reunion, Madam Gu has visited every day, and Liu Ruyan has also changed her name to Gu Ruyan after being recognized as a member of the family.

Not only Grand Tutor Gu and his wife, but also Gu Qingyan and his brother often came. Each time they came, they brought many gifts, saying that they had not been able to take good care of their younger sister for so many years, and that they would never let Ruyan suffer any grievances in the future.

Gu Ruyan truly felt the love of her family. Unlike the hypocrisy and exploitation she had experienced in the Liu family, she didn't have to try to please them or do anything for them to treat her with their whole heart.

Now her only wish is for Song Lin to return safely.
