Je suis née beauté, et je suis suprême

Chapitre 44

"Shen Ziming, you deserve to be childless now!" Mother was speaking without restraint.

I told the maidservant next to me to leave.

She yelled at me, "Don't think I don't know what he's up to! I usually turn a blind eye and let it go, what does he want now! Does he think he can get away with this?!"

"How should I know?" He feigned innocence.

"You don't know, you don't know you'll provoke him to come back! Xiao Yi, what exactly are you trying to do? I have no idea what's going on."

I looked at my hysterical mother and didn't know how to comfort her.

"Listen up, resign from your post immediately!"

"No," I said. "My career as an official has only just begun. It's not worth giving up for such a small matter."

"I'll give you all the properties under my name, just stop messing around, okay?" The mother began to tempt him, in a rather dishonest way.

"How many properties does Mother own?" I looked at her excitedly, seizing the perfect opportunity to get a sense of her wealth. "I want to see if it's enough to exchange for."

My mother looked at me dismissively, her mood improving slightly. "Why do you care so much! If I tell you to resign, you should resign. I won't let you down."

My shrewd mother, I can't fool her even if I wanted to. "Mother—." I pulled my daughter's voice to calm her down, "If I can't make it in this world, I'll just run away. Would I let myself suffer a loss?"

My mother hugged me, genuinely worried, and said, "You're a girl, if you stay with them for too long, you'll be exposed sooner or later."

"So let me have some fun for a couple of days before I'm exposed."

"no."

"Mother—Mother—Mother—" I squirmed in her arms, coaxing her affectionately.

"Come on, don't give me that." His expression softened.

"Xiao Yi knows that Mom loves me the most." I shook her and winked at her. You dare count them, you bastard Zi Mo?

"let go."

"No? I'm sleeping with Mommy tonight." I pouted and kissed her face, which was already exceptionally beautiful even without any skincare. This trick is useless against Qianqing, but it's the best weapon against everyone else.

Sure enough, Mom gave me a smile and tapped my precious nose.

Ha! Ha! Done. If I couldn't take you down, I might as well quit the underworld!

Wu Hui entered the imperial court through "backdoor" means at the end of the month.

I kindly reminded him, "Brother, you're really something."

"I have plenty of strength." Wu Hui's tone was as arrogant as ever.

I feigned respect and said to his luggage, "This humble subject greets the future prince and wishes Your Highness to be self-reliant and strong on your path to promotion."

"Nonsense, I rely on my real skills."

"That's really impressive! If you were truly capable, how come you ended up ahead of me after I came later?" That's just empty boasting.

"I'm standing taller than you, so it's only natural that I'm in front of you." Wu Hui puffed out her chest arrogantly.

Pshaw, it's just because your parents are capable. Bah!

"Attend court!" Eunuch Hai's high-pitched yet deep voice rang out from outside the hall. Damn, what a weird adjective! So high-pitched, how could it be deep? He's more like a folk high-pitched singer.

After the ceremony, I stood behind Wu Hui, and oh my god! I couldn't see anything at all. Next time I'll bring a stool.

Today it seems like they're discussing some kind of national treasury revenue, and shameless guy has become the center of attention.

I peeked at him through Wu Hui's sleeve, but damn it, I couldn't see him at all. I can't even see this kind of financial showdown drama from ancient times. I even prepared some melon seeds today.

I kicked Wu Hui from behind: "Move aside, you're blocking me." Wu Hui kicked back with lightning speed, and I retreated in panic. If I were a man, I would have kicked him so hard that I would be childless!

I glanced at Qianqing and saw him listening intently to Houlianpi's words. I was once again hidden in the corner. I stood up straight, quietly approached Wuhui, pinched him, and quickly disappeared.

He instinctively lunged with his elbow, but I retreated a step away from him. Ha! You can't hit me? I don't believe you dare to hit me in the imperial court.

I sharpened the sunflower seed shells and secretly stabbed him from behind with them in my hand.

He kicked and stomped around, jumping up and down, which attracted the attention of Wu Yongkang in the other row. Bianpian winked at him, and I stood behind him, listening attentively to the voice from the center.

Wu Hui retreated, hiding himself behind the assembled officials.

I moved outwards to expose myself to the public. Go ahead and try, you little brat!

I provoked him in a despicable way.

After his bull-eyed cow gave birth to a calf, he arrogantly returned to his original spot, deciding not to stoop to my level.

I returned to the corner and disappeared into the crowd.

Feel around in the sleeve pocket to see if there's any treasure inside.

After fiddling around for ages, I discovered there was leftover cake from yesterday. You damn little bastard, you didn't even do my laundry! No wages for you.

I pulled out a small pair of scissors, and seeing that no one was paying attention to us, I whispered to Wu Hui, "Hui Hui, it was all my fault just now. Please forgive me. We can still be good brothers."

The ox grunted, probably having received a message of affection from its younger brother.

I said with secret delight, "I just got your clothes dirty, so I cleaned the stains for you, otherwise they wouldn't look good."

"Hmph." Niu Yin didn't seem to object.
