After rebirth, I seduced the abstinent Marquis and became the white moonlight

Chapter 160 A vixen like your mother

It would be a lie to say that I wasn't disappointed when I heard that Helian Chexu was going to get engaged to another girl. After all, Si Yanran still thought he was different from other men.

But anyway, the two of them didn't make any promises, and Si Yanran could understand that if Helian Che could meet the girl he liked and get married, she would be genuinely happy for him.

Si Yanran thought things through well, but she didn't know how she was viewed by others.

Ding Haitang, the daughter of the Minister of Rites, married her father's favorite student two years ago. Now her husband has entered the Hanlin Academy and she has a son. She is at the peak of her career.

Ding Haitang's baby is one month old, and the Ding family specially invites Shen Ning's family to a banquet.

The relationships in the capital are complicated, and the wealthy and powerful are particularly particular about them. Given her personality, she actually doesn't like to attend occasions with many people.

But it didn’t matter that I wasn’t in the capital before, but now that I’ve finally come back, I can’t refuse other people’s invitations.

In order to appear to be on good terms, Si Yanran went with her parents.

Ding Haitang and Si Yanran are the same age, so they had naturally met each other when they were children. However, Si Yanran didn't have much interaction with her, so she just greeted her briefly and went aside.

Anyway, she was just following along, just going through the motions.

But some people don't think so.

Ding Haitang was surrounded by a group of sisters who were teasing her children. Most girls of her age were married, so the topic they talked about was nothing more than the children in the harem.

One of them had sharp eyes and recognized Si Yanran at a glance. He said with great joy, "Hey, isn't that from the Si family? Is she not married yet?"

Ding Haitang rolled her eyes in the direction she pointed and snorted, "Yeah, so what if your parents are arrogant? If you're so picky, you'll end up being an old maid who can't get married."

Another sister followed suit: "That's right, he's so arrogant all the time. I heard that the young master of the Helian family came to propose marriage, but was rejected. Why is he pretending to be so noble?"

Si Yanran inherited her father's good hearing and listened to every word of the conversation.

She was actually quite surprised. She hadn't been in Beijing for a full year since she was born, and she thought no one knew her. She didn't expect there would be a scandal. Seeing that those people were getting more and more rude, Si Yanran didn't like to be bullied, so she walked over and moved a stool to sit in front of them.

As the others stared in amazement, Si Yanran slowly spoke, "Go on, let me see what else you can come up with."

Talking bad about someone behind their back is one thing, and being heard is another. Several girls looked up and down, pretending not to hear anything.

Ding Haitang held the child and said with a sense of superiority: "What's wrong with you? Why are you so arrogant?"

Si Yanran felt that she was simply unreasonable: "It's really weird, Ding Haitang, I haven't offended you, why are you so angry when you see me, can it be..."

"You envy me for having good parents who don't push me to get married, don't want me to be a sacrifice for an arranged marriage, and support me unconditionally, so I can do whatever I want. Am I right?"

All the little girls have the same thoughts, and Si Yanran has seen this many times.

Ding Haitang was touched in the heart, her face turned red with anger, and she said without thinking: "I envy you? I have a husband and a son, what can I envy you for.

"As for you, the young master of the Helian family had a special liking for you before, but now you are twenty years old and have become an old maid that no one wants."

"I heard that the girl Helian Che is looking at is only fifteen years old. It's useless for you to regret it now."

Fifteen? Si Yanran cursed Helian Che in her heart, and at the same time she discovered a brilliant point.

"Shut up Helian Che, what, do you like him? You can also marry her."

Si Yanran was just guessing at first, but the next second, Ding Haitang's reaction further confirmed her guess.

She threw the child to the wet nurse next to her, stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "If it weren't for you, a vixen, I..."

After all, they were already married, so Ding Haitang knew that he couldn't talk about the past anymore. He just looked at Si Yanran angrily and squeezed out a few words from his back teeth: "She's a vixen like your mother, always seducing men."
