After I traveled through the book, I became the favorite of the cold and indifferent prince.

Chapter 132 Haircut Ceremony

Yan Qingwan came back to her senses and shook her head, "I just didn't expect that the Su family also intended to use their power to suppress others."

Hearing this, Si Jinchen chuckled and said with a slightly mocking expression: "The Su family thinks that you don't have any background, so they naturally think they can control you."

Yan Qingwan: "I was not there at the time, I wonder what the master said to the housekeeper?"

Si Jinchen glanced at her calmly and said, "Want to know?"

Yan Qingwan nodded: "I want to."

Si Jinchen turned slightly to her and said, "Give her a kiss and I'll tell you."

Yan Qingwan: “…”

She curled her lips and said in a delicate voice, "Why is the master becoming more and more indecent now?"

In fact, what she wanted to say was, why are you getting more and more shameless? Ahem, it’s not appropriate to say this in front of your thigh.

Si Jinchen said seriously: "Is there?"

Yan Qingwan nodded: "Of course."

Si Jinchen: "Then do you still want to know?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Qingwan hesitated for a moment, but still stood up, kissed him on the face, and then sat back in his original seat.

Si Jinchen said calmly: "I rejected him directly and asked someone to ask him to leave the mansion."

Yan Qingwan···

She had actually guessed it.

This is indeed Si Jinchen's style of doing things.

Yan Qingwan thought for a moment, and then said, "What about the Su family next..."

Si Jinchen said calmly: "I will wait at home for the head of the Su family to take action and see what methods they will use."

Yan Qingwan: "Okay."

She almost forgot that the person in front of her was the real boss.

That so-called Patriarch of the Su family is probably not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the guy opposite him.

······

Soon it was the day of the coming-of-age ceremony for the daughter of the prefect's wife.

After Si Jinchen and Yan Qingwan packed up early in the morning, they boarded a carriage and headed for the prefect's residence.

The prefect's daughter held her coming-of-age ceremony, and there was an endless stream of people coming to congratulate her.

Most of the officials and dignitaries came with their wives, so Yan Qingwan's appearance did not seem particularly abrupt.

However, for the aristocratic circle of Jiangning Prefecture, they were all very familiar with each other.

When facing this unfamiliar Yan Qingwan, everyone couldn't help but cast more scrutinizing and examining glances at her.

Yan Qingwan had attended dozens of banquets, big and small, and was accustomed to these looks, so she behaved very calmly and composedly.

Seeing how calm she was, and how unperturbed she was by fame or disgrace, some ladies could not help but feel fond of her and gave her good comments:

"This new Madam Shi looks like a concubine, but observing her every move, she has the demeanor of a mistress of the house."

"Yeah, I don't know what kind of family can raise a daughter who is so calm and indifferent to fame and disgrace."

The wife of another official heard this and sneered, "She is just a girl who married a merchant. What is there to envy? If she were my daughter, I would naturally train her carefully and would not let her marry a merchant."

Mrs. Su, who was standing next to her, echoed, "I think it should be a merchant or farmer family."

The lady who had spoken earlier glanced at Madam Su and snorted, "I think so too."

Yan Qingwan didn't know that the other ladies at the banquet were talking about her. After she came in, she casually looked around and then sat down.

Not long after, Yan Qingwan saw the host of the banquet, the daughter of the prefect's wife, Miss Wang Zhitao.

She was obviously dressed up formally today.

He was dressed in a crimson robe with a vertical collar and exquisite golden patterns embroidered on the sleeves and neckline, which made him look gorgeous and solemn.

She wore a butterfly-shaped pure gold hairpin on her head and a pair of gold butterfly earrings inlaid with jewels on the tips of her ears. The gems on the earrings echoed the hairpin, adding a sense of elegance and nobility.

She has a round face, her complexion is as white as snow, her makeup is delicate, and she has a pair of bright big eyes, as clear and moving as autumn water, with slightly upturned corners of her eyes, revealing a hint of sweetness.

Yan Qingwan picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and thought to himself, this Miss Wang is quite likable to the elders.

Wang Zhitao saw Yan Qingwan sitting in his seat at a glance.

After all, she was the most outstanding one among all the ladies present.

When Wang Zhitao saw the color of her clothes, her eyes darkened and she walked over.

When she stood beside Yan Qingwan, she glanced at her dress with a bit of dissatisfaction in her eyes, and asked: "Madam Shi, you knew that today was a good day for me, why did you wear the same color clothes as me?"

Hearing this, Yan Qingwan lowered her head and took a look at her clothes today, saying indifferently, "I didn't know that Miss Wang would wear red clothes today, but since our clothes are of different styles, I think there shouldn't be any problem."

Wang Zhitao snorted and said, "But at the banquet today, apart from me, only Madam Shi is wearing red. I do have a few clothes of other colors and styles in my bedroom. Why don't you go there before my coming-of-age ceremony begins?"

Yan Qingwan: “...” She didn’t expect that the Miss Wang in front of her was so domineering and unreasonable.

He even looked for opportunities to make things difficult for her.

She simply shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Wang, I don't have the habit of wearing other people's clothes."

Wang Zhitao never expected that she would dare to reject her. She raised her eyes and said in shock: "You..."

Yan Qingwan looked at her innocently.

The ladies nearby who heard the noise also looked over curiously.

A lady who had a good relationship with Wang Zhitao smiled and asked, "Zhitao, what were you talking about with Madam Shi?"

Wang Zhitao came back to her senses and glared at Yan Qingwan.

Then his expression changed immediately, and he said to the lady gently, "It's nothing, I just thought the hairpin on Madam Shi's head was pretty, so I came to take a look."

When the lady heard this, she glanced at Yan Qingwan's head.

He smiled and said, "What's the big deal? If you like it, just go to Yuzhang Pavilion and order one. It's no big deal."

Wang Zhitao responded with a smile.

Yan Qingwan, however, raised the corner of his mouth slightly and glanced at Wang Zhitao with a half-smile, a hint of barely perceptible sarcasm in his eyes.

She knew that Wang Zhitao said this just to save face, but was she so easily offended?

So, Yan Qingwan deliberately said loudly: "I also think this hairpin is very unique. I brought it from the capital. I don't think the Jade Hairpin Pavilion has this style.

It's a pity that I only have one hairpin like this, and it has a special meaning to me, so I really can't bear to give it away." After saying this, she deliberately sighed with regret.
