The mistress just wanted to be bad, but she took off after being replaced

Her face instantly turned pale. "No matter how you pretend to be calm, it is an ironclad fact that Pei Yu doesn't care about you. The calmer you pretend to be now, the more miserable you will cry when you get home!"

Sheng Junwei was still nonchalant, her tone was gentle but every word was clear: "In three days, your position will face a new round of challenges, and there will be another sister in the mansion, which will be very lively. Your mother-in-law will always remind you to be generous and tolerant, and urge your brother-in-law to have children. What a harmonious and happy picture, you will naturally be very happy."

When Sheng Ruijiao heard this, hatred surged into her heart like a tide and rushed to her head.

She stared at Sheng Junwei, "You... just wait! Pei Yu will be bewitched by that woman sooner or later, and by then, you, the principal wife, will probably become a stumbling block in his eyes. Who knows, one day he might just favor his concubine over his wife, and let you have a taste of being abandoned like a worn-out shoe!"

After saying that, she turned and left without looking back.

Although the current situation in the Zheng Mansion is slightly different from Sheng Ruijiao's memory of her previous life.

Zheng Yiyang did not clear out the women in the backyard as she expected, but Sheng Ruijiao firmly believed that this was only a temporary change and would not change the overall situation.

She firmly believed that Pei Yu would eventually achieve success and be promoted to a higher position.

And Sheng Junwei will inevitably follow the fate of her previous life, trapped by Pei Yu's sinister calculations and heading towards the abyss of death.

Sheng Ruijiao sneered in her heart. If that was the case, why should she bother with someone as short-lived as Sheng Junwei?

An unmarried couple happened to pass by and inadvertently overheard their heated argument.

When the fiancée heard this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth and exclaimed: "So Master Pei is this kind of person?"

Looking at the receding figure, my impression of Pei Yu was greatly reduced.

This fiancé, Fan Yujie, was born in the family of the Minister of Personnel. He was the second son of the family and had always had a close relationship with Pei Yu.

At this moment, he had not yet realized the serious consequences that this conversation might cause, and tried to clarify for his friend: "Actually, it's not entirely like that. Miss Han is indeed very talented, but she comes from a humble background and is not favored by Madam Pei."

Fan Yujie eagerly defended Pei Yu: "As for what you said about favoring a concubine and killing his wife, it definitely never happened. A Yu is not that kind of person."

However, Fan Yujie's explanation was like lighting a barrel of explosives, instantly detonating his fiancée's anger.

She snorted coldly, "The wife he married was left out in the cold, while he favored a nameless and unnamed woman. Isn't that enough?"

"Master Fan, do you agree so much with what Master Pei did?"

"It seems that you will also ignore your wife for a woman whose family background is not accepted in the future... Humph, I will tell my parents that this marriage is off the table!"

The fiancée said this in a decisive tone, then turned and left resolutely.

Fan Yujie stood there in a daze, looking at the empty streets, feeling a desolate feeling in his heart.

He murmured to himself, full of helplessness and regret: Pei Yu, you have to compensate my wife!

At this moment, Sheng Junwei was sitting leisurely in the Yunjin Textile, completely unaware that her words and actions had inadvertently become the fuse for the breakdown of someone else's engagement.

She had no idea that Fan Yujie wanted to seek an explanation from Pei Yu because he was unable to convince others.

Not far away, Sheng Ruijiao was filled with resentment but trying to remain calm.

The lesson from last time made her realize that no matter how furious she was, she could only grit her teeth and suppress the urge to glare at Sheng Junwei.

Whenever someone she knew came up to greet her, she had to force out a perfect smile and pretend to be a close sister.

Although she chose to remain silent, things in the world often do not go as planned.

There are always some gossipers who like to mention the past events of the real and fake daughter during casual conversation.

In the eyes of those nobles, Sheng Junwei was just a "country chicken" who was clinging to the powerful. She was lucky enough to enter the Sheng Mansion and rely on the kindness of Minister Sheng and his wife to marry into the powerful Prime Minister's Mansion.

The faces of those ladies from famous families who had long coveted Pei Yu or the Pei family background suddenly dimmed.

They thought that the breakdown of this marriage would open the door to power and wealth for them, however, Sheng Junwei's low-key behavior left them with nowhere to go.

She seldom participated in social occasions. Even at grand banquets hosted by noble ladies or important welcoming and seeing-off ceremonies, Zhang was always the one who attended on her behalf.

Now, they finally have the opportunity to confront the mysterious Madam Pei head-on, so how could they miss it easily?

A noble lady in purple sipped her tea gently, "Mr. Pei is about to be kidnapped by a man, and Madam Pei is still in the mood to choose clothes here?"

The news that Pei Yu broke into the clinic with a man in his arms yesterday had already spread rapidly among the aristocratic circles like wildfire, and it seemed that the family scandal of the Pei family could no longer be covered up.

The looks these noble ladies gave Sheng Junwei were all filled with ridicule and contempt.

Sheng Ruijiao was standing aside, observing this scene with great interest. She was eager to see this impostor in such a state of humiliation amid the ridicule and sarcasm of the crowd.

However, Sheng Junwei shot her sharp eyes like arrows, and said in a cold tone: "Put away the gloating in your eyes. No matter what, I am still the legitimate eldest daughter of the Sheng family. If I am humiliated here, it will be a loss of face for the Shangshu Mansion. As the second daughter of the Shangshu Mansion, you will not be able to escape the entanglement. I really don't understand why you can still be so gloating?"

Sheng Ruijiao was speechless for a moment, "I...how can I be happy? Sister, you misunderstood me, I'm just worried about you, brother-in-law..."

Sheng Junwei interrupted her hypocritical performance coldly: "When did being brave and doing good things become a shameful act? Let me ask you ladies, when you walk on the street and encounter people being injured, will you turn a blind eye and watch them die from excessive bleeding?"

The noble ladies present looked at each other in bewilderment. Even though they did not care much about the lives of ordinary people, they found it difficult to admit their indifference at this moment.

The purple-robed noblewoman was speechless and embarrassed. "Of course not, but..."

Sheng Junwei looked calm, "My husband is just following the frugality advocated by the court. He doesn't travel with a large group of people like you do. He doesn't have any followers around him. When he sees someone injured, he personally helps them. What's so hard to understand about that?"

At the same time, Pei Yu stepped onto the third floor of the restaurant and happened to catch Sheng Junwei's powerful words. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

While Pei Yu was still immersed in surprise, another noble lady couldn't help but say, "I heard that the person Mr. Pei was hugging wasn't some brave warrior who saved people, but his secret mistress!"

Sheng Ruijiao pretended to be shocked when she heard this: "No way? Sister, you and your brother-in-law have just been married for a short time, and he is actually raising a mistress outside?"
