Zheng Ling's sly eyes swept over the faces of several women, and saw the sneers on their brows and eyes. Zheng Ling didn't want to be looked down upon by them, so he pretended to be disdainful and said: "These jewelry are made of beautiful patterns and materials. It’s not very good. If I go back to the imperial capital, I won’t be able to wear such a cheap thing.”

Zheng Ling didn't want anything, no matter how good it was, Zhan Hanjue wouldn't even look at it. He moved his eyes away from the jade plate and said in a sweet voice, "Uncle, do you have any other good treasures?"

Yu Sheng was slightly startled. Zhan Hanjue, a dignified seven-foot-tall man, was so persistent in these vulgar things. After all, he seemed a bit unworthy.

Zhan Hanjue glanced at the mean-speaking woman and asked calmly: "Uncle, how should I call her?"

"Second aunt." Yu Sheng said.

Zhan Hanjue then understood that the reason this woman spoke so arrogantly was related to her status.

Yu Sheng's psychological speculation was revealed by his beloved concubine at an inappropriate time, "I heard that Lord Zhan is the richest man in the imperial capital. Why can't Lord Zhan afford these cheap jewelry?"

Zheng Ling was angry.

This woman actually used her words to amuse Brother Jue. It was so irritating.

The faces of several beautiful concubines were a little downcast.

They originally believed that they had beautiful clothes and dazzling jewelry, so at first they looked down upon Yan Zhengling, who was dressed in plain clothes and without jewelry. They felt that she was poorly dressed and that her title as the wife of the richest man in the imperial capital was just in name.

Only now do I know that the reason why the prince stared at the jade plate was not because he was short of money, but because the things Yan Zhengling liked were priceless treasures. In order to please Yan Zhengling, the prince of the imperial capital condescended to look at the jade plate more.

The eldest aunt is Yu Chengqian's mother. She devoted herself to Buddhism and quit the competition for favors. This allowed the second aunt's status to skyrocket. In the past few years, she has been in charge of the affairs of Yujiazhai, almost approaching the status of the wife of the family head.

However, no matter how high her status is, it can't change the fact that she is a concubine. And a man like Zhan Hanjue, who is devoted and dedicated, hates the mistress being in a high position.

When he spoke again, he was a little rude to her, with a cold voice. "There is nothing in this world that I can't afford, and there is nothing that I can't buy. Except for the treasures that my Zheng Ling likes."

Zhan Hanjue looked at Zheng Ling with his longing eyes, seeing that her black hair was without any embellishments, and her smooth swan neck was also empty, and he felt quite guilty.

How could his woman be so shabby?

"I happen to have some free time recently, Zheng Ling. I'm going to personally design a unique jewelry for you. Think of it as my New Year's gift to you."

It was their misunderstanding about Mr. Zhan from beginning to end.

Yu Sheng smiled and said: "There is no shortage of gold, silver and jewelry in the last days. However, many jade articles have not been polished and are still in the state of raw stones. If Jue'er doesn't mind the trouble, he can go to the back mountain to quarry the stones and then ask craftsmen to polish them into finished products. Perhaps, he can Encountered top quality jade.”

Zheng Ling felt that quarrying and polishing were troublesome processes, so she tactfully persuaded Zhan Hanjue, "Brother Jue, forget it. Those are external things, there is no need to waste time on them."

Zheng Ling was filled with a happy smile. "Yes."

But he tugged on his sleeve and reminded him, "Brother Jue, don't forget to talk about business."

Zhan Hanjue's handsome face instantly returned to that of an iceberg, his falcon eyes turned to Yu Sheng, and his body suddenly exuded an aura of alienation that could repel people thousands of miles away.

"Uncle, I'm here to congratulate you today." The voice was obviously very soft, but it didn't make people feel the warmth, and there was also a sense of coercion in the voice.

Yu Sheng's vigilance was fully mobilized, and he deliberately did Tai Chi and said deceptively: "There has been no happy event in Yujiazhai for many years. I wonder what Jue'er wants to congratulate me?"
