Ling Chuchu has now become a street rat, and only Song Zhicheng is willing to look at her straight in the eye. Seeing Ling Chuchu actually discussing conditions with him, Song Zhicheng was furious.
But there was nothing he could do.
Both Ling Chuchu and Song Zhicheng knew one thing: that mysterious force was very powerful. It was not only Ling Chuchu's life-saving straw, but also a weapon for Song Zhicheng to defeat Song Zhiqing and Wei Xun.
"I want a lot, but I don't know if the eldest prince can afford it." Ling Chuchu's smile grew even wider.
Song Zhicheng didn't say anything, waiting for Ling Chuchu to continue.
He wanted to see how Ling Chuchu would ask for an exorbitant price.
"I want to be the wife of Marquis Yongen."
Song Zhicheng was stunned, and suddenly raised his head to meet Ling Chuchu's eyes.
…
After coming out of the clothing shop, Ling Qingwan and An Yi walked around for a while. Feeling tired, they went to a nearby teahouse and sat for half an hour.
When the two returned to the shop, they found that the clothes An Yi chose were already worn by someone else.
The woman was seen turning around in front of the mirror, and she seemed very satisfied with the clothes she was wearing.
"Yu Wei'er!"
An Yi recognized the woman's identity.
Yu Weier turned around and faced An Yi.
"This dress is mine, why are you wearing it?" An Yi rushed forward. "Take it off quickly!"
"Is your name written on this skirt? If your name isn't written on it, why do you say it's yours?" Yu Weier was not willing to be outdone and retorted to An Yi.
An Yi glared at the shopkeeper angrily.
The shopkeeper was in a dilemma.
"Do you have any other clothes like this one in the store?" Ling Qingwan asked in a gentle voice.
"No more, just this one." The shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead.
He was a clothes seller, how could he not see that Ling Qingwan and An Yi were dressed in extraordinary clothes, and they were not ordinary ladies. He couldn't afford to offend them. But Yu Wei'er didn't seem like someone who could be easily dealt with...
While answering, the shopkeeper was already wondering whether he could continue his business today.
"I saw this dress first, and I asked the shopkeeper to ask the tailor to repair it. You can pick another dress yourself." An Yi was not convinced and was determined to snatch the dress from Yu Weier.
"Clothes belong to whoever wears them. Do you want to take them off?" Yu Weier raised her head with a proud look.
As soon as she finished speaking, An Yi reached out and began to pull at the clothes on Yu Weier.
Seeing this, Ling Qingwan hurriedly asked Hong Shang to go up and take a look.
"Princess!"
Xiaobai was worried and was about to step forward to stop the fight, but was stopped by Ling Qingwan.
"Ms. Ling, the princess..."
"The princess will be fine." Ling Qingwan said lightly. "Hong Chang is protecting her."
Xiaobai glanced at Hongshang who was standing beside An Yi and Yu Weier, and said nothing more.
"Believe it or not, I'll go and tell my aunt!"
Yu Weier didn't expect that An Yi would actually do it.
"Just say it, who's afraid of you?" An Yi didn't care.
The two men were equally strong and it took them a long time to stop arguing.
Yu Weier's clothes had been torn apart, and she looked extremely disheveled.
"Song Anyi! Are you crazy?" Yu Weier looked down at her body and yelled at Anyi.
"I think you're crazy." An Yi crossed her arms and rolled her eyes at Yu Wei'er. "Except for you, no one in this world dares to snatch clothes from this princess."
"It just so happens that since I can't wear it, you can forget about wearing it either."
After all, she was a girl, and she really liked this dress, but it faded after a while. Especially since Yu Wei'er had worn it before, An Yi was even less likely to wear it.
"I'll tell my aunt right away and ask her to take care of you."
Yu Weier was extremely angry.
"Your aunt is my biological mother. Do you think she will help me or you?" An Yi sneered.
"you… !"
"Alright, change your clothes quickly. There are so many people coming and going here. It would be embarrassing if you were seen." An Yi looked Yu Weier up and down, trying not to hide her inner disgust.
Fortunately, Ling Qingwan had Xiaobai close the store door before the two of them started fighting. Otherwise, many people would have stopped at the store door to join in the fun.
"Wanwan, let's go."
Ling Qingwan stood up, An Yi took her hand and walked away with a swagger.
Behind him, Yu Weier was still cursing.
After leaving the store, An Yi told Ling Qingwan about Yu Weier.
It turned out that Yu Weier's mother was the princess's younger sister, and the two sisters had been close since childhood, just like Madam Zhang and Madam Qin.
But Yu Wei'er's biological mother died early, and passed away shortly after Yu Wei'er was born.
The princess felt sorry for Yu Wei'er, so she took her to the prince's mansion to live for two or three years. Later, she was taken away by the Yu family.
At first, the princess was worried that Yu Wei'er's stepmother would treat her badly, but she was relieved later. But the good times didn't last long. During one Chinese New Year, Yu Wei'er came to the prince's mansion. At that time, she was five or six years old and could understand what people said. But her temper was extremely willful.
The princess blamed her stepmother for not disciplining Yu Weier properly, which led to her current state. She also criticized her stepmother several times, both openly and covertly.
But the Yu family is not in the capital after all, and the princess cannot be on guard everywhere. The stepmother is one way in front of her, and another way when she returns to the Yu family. As she grows older, Yu Weier's temper becomes more and more unruly and spoiled. Even Yu Weier's father can't stand her.
"In comparison, Yu Wei'er's two younger sisters seem much more well-behaved. They know how to behave and even greet me when they see me. They are nothing like Yu Wei'er, who is disrespectful and has a bad temper." An Yi snorted.
"Yu Weier has two younger sisters?" Ling Qingwan raised her eyebrows, becoming interested.
"She was born to her stepmother." An Yi replied.
"No wonder." Ling Qingwan murmured to herself.
"What's so strange?" An Yi was puzzled and asked Ling Qingwan with her head tilted.
"Think about it, if they were born in the same place and had been exposed to mostly the same people and things since childhood, it would be normal if they had different personalities. But how could one be very well-behaved and the other very unruly?" Ling Qingwan patiently explained to An Yi.
"Maybe it's just that the stubborn nature of his character is just like that. It's innate." An Yi thought about it seriously.
"Have you heard from your mother what Yu Weier's personality was like during the two years she stayed in the palace?" Ling Qingwan asked.
"My mother said that she was very well-behaved at that time, at least better than me." An Yi answered truthfully.
"That's it." Ling Qingwan chuckled.
An Yi suddenly understood.
"Wanwan, are you saying that Yu Wei'er wasn't originally so unruly, and it was actually her stepmother who deliberately spoiled her!"
"clever."
"Then how can you be sure?" An Yi was still a little confused.
After all, no matter how smart Ling Qingwan is, she has never met Yu Weier's stepmother, so how could she know what that person is thinking.
"Didn't you just say that your mother had criticized Yu Wei'er's stepmother?"
Ling Qingwan really didn't have the ability to predict who Yu Wei'er's stepmother was based on An Yi's words alone. But she knew that the princess also thought so.
