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

Sheng Junwei looked at him with a smile, "Mr. Pei, now that you know the real situation of me in Sheng Mansion, how are you going to deal with it? Should you tell your mother everything in detail so that she can understand how far her decision has deviated?"

Pei Yu fell into silence, his thoughts churning.

At the beginning, his mother insisted that he marry Sheng Junwei because Yue'er was of humble origins and the eldest daughter of the Sheng family was a good match for him and would be beneficial to the family.

However, what I saw and heard today was completely opposite to what my mother expected.

He secretly thought that as long as he put this fact in front of his mother, she would definitely realize the serious mistake she had made in her original judgment.

Pei Yu avoided Sheng Junwei's gaze and said in a slightly heavy voice: "As long as you behave yourself, don't covet things that don't belong to you, and don't provoke Yue'er, you can keep the position of young mistress for the time being."

Pei Yu promised that when everything was settled, he would find an opportunity to divorce her without damaging his reputation.

And arrange her future life.

Sheng Junwei was slightly surprised.

Mr. Pei appears to be cold and arrogant on the surface, but he is actually kind and considerate at heart.

It was beyond her expectation that he could still take into account the situation and dignity when weighing the pros and cons and the ways of the world.

She responded calmly: "When you find a suitable way to divorce, just let me know. As for the 'good place' you mentioned, I have already made plans in mind, so you don't need to worry about it."

Pei Yu frowned upon hearing this. "How can a weak woman like you have a safe place to stay? In this chaotic world, how many hardships will you have to face alone?"

After spending some time together, he had already seen through the hypocrisy of those rumors.

The Miss Sheng in front of me looks tough as a thorn on the outside, but gentle as water on the inside.

"Forget it, since we are already husband and wife, I should take responsibility." Pei Yu thought to himself, "Even if this marriage is out of helplessness, you are trapped in the shackles of the world's eyes because of me. If I do something heartless again, I am afraid you will find it difficult to survive in this predicament. To me, supporting one more person is just a matter of one more pair of chopsticks. Yue'er is so considerate, she will definitely understand my painstaking efforts... right?"

Amidst a myriad of thoughts, Pei Yu returned to the Prime Minister's residence. He hurriedly left a sentence, "You can move the things in the car back by yourself," and quickly disappeared into the depths of the mansion.

Seeing this, Yunying was indignant: "How could the son-in-law be like this? He rushed to find Han Yue'er, where did he put our young lady?"

However, Sheng Junwei seemed quite calm about this: "They are a pair of affectionate lovers. I am the outsider who accidentally broke into their emotional world. It is human nature for him to do this. I have no complaints."

She recalled what Si Qi had said to her, that in matters of the heart, first come first served, and latecomers are the interveners.

But Si Qi also said that this first-come-first-served rule seems to have lost its effectiveness in this turbulent era.

Therefore, Sheng Junwei does not think she is wrong.

She shook her head slightly and said calmly, "Instead of dwelling on these meaningless disturbances, why don't we check the accounts and see if we can improve our lives this month."

As soon as money was mentioned, Yunying's expression indeed eased a lot.

More than an hour later, she came in with the account book, her face full of joy: "Miss, the accounts have been calculated."

The dividend bill was like a painting of blooming flowers, slowly unfolding in front of Sheng Junwei.

Sheng Junwei looked at this generous income and a playful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"My dowry, accumulated till now, is worth less than this eight hundred taels of silver. I never expected that Pei Yu would bring back such a generous gift when he accompanied me home."

She didn't dwell on this unexpected fortune for too long.

"Not only did I make a lot of money on this trip, but I also earned Si Qi a chance to become famous. It's really killing two birds with one stone. It's a good thing that's hard to find even with a lantern in the world."

Si Qi, Sheng Junwei's close friend, comes from the prominent imperial merchant family, the Jiang family.

Although the Jiang family has been in business for generations, the current head of the family, Jiang Yuqiu, has only one daughter, Si Qi.

But the family did not expect her to inherit the family business. Instead, they hoped that she would focus on learning the etiquette of a lady, so that she could successfully marry into a powerful family in the future and become a dignified and steady wife.

If she is not qualified to be the main wife, she would be willing to be a concubine as long as it can bring honor to the Jiang family.

Si Qi was unwilling to give in, so she resolutely ran away from home, determined to prove to the world with practical actions that she could also carry the banner of the Jiang family.

Sheng Junwei and Si Qi are both obsessed with gold, silver and jewelry beyond words.

A special cooperation agreement was reached.

The agreement stipulated that as long as Sheng Junwei could help Si Qi attract customers, she would get half of the money earned from the sale of each piece of clothing.

The gorgeous dress that made Pei Yu spend a lot of money actually cost more than five thousand taels of silver.

When she returned to the Sheng family this time, Sheng Junwei was thinking about more than just a simple counterattack. She was more concerned about using Pei Yu's influence to expand Si Qi's business.

Just imagine, the notorious eldest daughter in Shangshu Sheng's mansion easily captured Mr. Pei's heart with just a gorgeous dress, making him ignore her bad reputation and willingly accompany her back to her parents' home.

Such a dramatic change will definitely cause heated discussions in the city.

Just as Sheng Junwei was intoxicated with her beautiful vision of the future, she suddenly felt a subtle vibration in her body.

She looked intently and saw a ray of merit light passing through her heart like a meteor and instantly merged into her body.

In her previous life, Sheng Junwei used her extraordinary physiognomy skills to clear the fog of fate for others countless times.

She had helped Zheng Yiyang accurately predict the enemy's movements and skillfully deploy troops in a life-and-death battle with the Wei Empire, ultimately saving the 400,000 cavalry of the Great Sheng Empire and avoiding the fate of total annihilation.

Despite her miraculous powers, she has never been afforded such an extraordinary opportunity as she is now.

Could it be that God, out of pity for her unjust death in her previous life, gave her this extraordinary ability as compensation?

Thinking of this, Sheng Junwei felt an irrepressible excitement in her heart.

Once you have profound merits, even if your cultivation is not enough to ascend, you can be reborn into a wealthy family in the next life, away from worldly troubles, and enjoy a peaceful and beautiful life.

So, she silently made a new wish in her heart - to accumulate endless merits and pave the way for her future.

As the sun was setting, Zhang returned to her mansion.

At this time, Sheng Junwei was sitting in the study, concentrating on reading the complicated account books of the prime minister's mansion.

Suddenly she heard the news that her mother had returned. She was about to get up to visit her, but found that Zhang had already walked quickly into her yard.

"Weier!" Zhang called softly, her voice filled with trembling and emotion that were difficult to conceal.

Sheng Junwei looked up at her mother and saw that her eyes were red.

Sheng Junwei calmly observed her mother's parent palace. The flow of energy there was clearly visible and everything was clear to her.
