Chapter 310 Su Ye's Letter
As October arrives, the wind howls and the osmanthus blossoms gradually wither.
On a whim, Shen Funian made a tray of osmanthus cakes by hand and excitedly delivered them to the main courtyard.
Wen Jiayue glanced at the messy presentation, picked up a piece, but didn't dare to eat it.
She asked, "Niannian, why did you suddenly start learning to make desserts?"
Shen Fu said, "I've found that making desserts is quite interesting, since I'm just killing time anyway."
She urged, "Don't just stand there, eat up! This is my first time making this. Yao'er hasn't even tried it yet, so I'm giving it to you first. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Wen Jiayue hesitated, not daring to eat.
Shen Funian is careless and doesn't pay attention to details. Are the pastries she makes really edible?
Shen Chengyao, who was standing behind Shen Funian, suddenly waved.
Wen Jiayue looked over and saw him with his hands tucked into his chest, looking furtive. Then he reached out and made a grabbing motion in the air, chewed a couple of times, stuck out his tongue, and rolled his eyes.
Wen Jiayue understood; Yao'er had just secretly eaten some, but it didn't taste good.
She dared not eat it anymore.
However, it didn't seem right not to eat it, so Wen Jiayue reluctantly took a small bite.
Shen Funian quickly asked, "How is it? How is it?"
Wen Jiayue forced a smile: "It's delicious."
Besides being too hard, it was also sickeningly sweet.
Shen Funian said proudly, "I knew it, I have a real talent for making desserts."
As she spoke, she picked up a piece to taste, took a big bite, and stopped after chewing it once.
"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!" she spat out immediately. "This is awful!"
Wen Jiayue: "..."
So she herself hadn't tried it.
A maid came in and announced, "Madam, Miss Wen has arrived."
Before Wen Jiayue could say anything, Shen Funian suddenly flared up: "She still dares to come?"
She knew about Wen Ruohuan's previous two visits, but she turned a blind eye out of respect for her sister-in-law.
Now you actually think you can appear in front of her openly? Dream on!
Shen Funian shouted, "Get her out of here!"
Wen Jiayue stopped her, saying, "Niannian, don't get agitated."
She then looked at the maid and said, "Let her into the mansion."
Upon hearing this, Shen Funian said angrily, "You know how she insulted me last year. Don't you care about my feelings at all?"
Wen Jiayue quickly reassured her, "No, of course I'm on your side."
Hearing this, Shen Funian's anger subsided a bit: "Then why did you let her into the manor?"
Wen Jiayue was anxious. Of course, she couldn't tell the truth; the fewer people who knew about this, the better.
However, she had a sudden inspiration and slowly said, "Among my dowry, there is a hairpin in the hands of the Wen family. I have to get it back, which is why I often contact Wen Ruohuan. Once I get the hairpin, I will definitely not let her set foot in the Marquis's mansion again."
Shen Funian asked suspiciously, "Really? What hairpin?"
"It's my birth mother's keepsake..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Funian said, "Alright, I'll let it go for now. Can we get it back this time?"
Wen Jiayue shook her head: "I don't know either, we can only try to work it out slowly."
Shen Funian said unhappily, "You have to give me a deadline, right?"
Wen Jiayue pondered for a moment, then said firmly, "Within this year."
If all goes well, everything will be settled before the next Spring Festival.
Shen Funian did the math; it was only a little over two months, which was acceptable.
She reluctantly agreed, saying, "Fine, just don't let me see her running around in the mansion next year, or I'll beat her every time I see her."
As she spoke, her gaze fell on the osmanthus cake, and she suddenly had a good idea. She whispered a few words to Wen Jiayue.
Wen Jiayue did not refuse; since Shen Funian wanted to mess with her, she would cooperate.
Before long, Wen Ruohuan walked into the courtyard and immediately saw Shen Funian. Her scalp tingled and she felt a little flustered.
She naturally remembered the vicious things she had said, and now that she saw Shen Funian again, she was at a loss for words.
Wen Jiayue smiled and said, "It's alright. You two have become friends through a fight, so let's shake hands and make peace today."
Upon hearing her say that, Wen Ruohuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon she will become her brother-in-law's concubine, so naturally she wants to get along well with her sister-in-law. Now that she has a way out, she naturally wants to take it.
Wen Ruohuan feigned sincerity and said, "That day was my fault. I reflected on it for a long time after I got back, but I haven't found a suitable opportunity to apologize. I hope you will be magnanimous and forgive my youth and ignorance."
Shen Funian snorted: "Fine, you eat these osmanthus cakes and I'll pretend nothing happened before."
Wen Ruohuan's eyes lit up. All she needed to do was eat a few pastries?
She nodded quickly, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake and started eating. Gradually, she realized something was wrong, and her whole face scrunched up, but she didn't dare to spit it out.
Shen Funian asked with a smile, "Is it delicious? I made it myself."
She added some other things to it just now, spicy, salty and sour, all of them. This osmanthus cake must taste amazing.
Wen Ruohuan forced down a mouthful, her smile more painful than a grimace.
"good to eat."
She suspected that Shen Funian was deliberately messing with her, but she endured it for her brother-in-law's sake!
Wen Ruohuan swallowed a piece and drank half a pot of tea in one go.
Shen Funian immediately felt refreshed and thoughtfully handed her the second piece.
"Eat slowly, no rush."
Wen Ruohuan looked at Wen Jiayue pleadingly.
Wen Jiayue asked in surprise, "What, you don't want to eat anymore?"
Shen Funian said coolly, "It seems that what you said just now was all a lie. What apology? It sounded nice."
"No, no," Wen Ruohuan quickly took a big bite. "I'm just not very hungry."
She prayed in her heart that her brother-in-law would come back soon and see how his own sister treated her!
Thanks to her prayers, Shen Fuhan actually returned.
Wen Ruohuan immediately looked over with teary eyes and pitifully called out, "Brother-in-law."
Such a sweet, affected voice and such an affected manner immediately set off alarm bells in Shen Funian's mind.
I never expected that Wen Ruohuan would dare to covet her older brother!
Shen Funian looked at Shen Fuhan, but fortunately he ignored her and walked straight towards Wen Jiayue.
"Go back to your room first, I have something to tell you."
Seeing his serious expression, Wen Jiayue also became more serious and didn't forget to give him a word of advice.
"Niannian, Huan'er, please sit down first. I'll be out in a bit."
Shen Funian was fine; she was overjoyed that her elder brother and sister-in-law had something to say to each other.
Wen Ruohuan pursed her lips, and the pastry in her mouth tasted extremely bitter. Her brother-in-law didn't even acknowledge her!
Seeing her like this, Shen Funian snorted and said with a smile, "Eat up, there are still three pieces left."
In the bedroom, Shen Fuhan closed the door.
Wen Jiayue hurriedly asked, "Husband, what is it?"
She has gradually gotten used to this form of address over the past few days.
Shen Fuhan took out a letter from his sleeve.
"I haven't opened the letter Su Ye sent from the border yet. I'll wait for you to read it together."
