If I were born again, I would marry a strong but short-lived husband.

Bai Shaojie often went to the Duke's Mansion when he was a child, and he looked down on Lu Yuan.

A bastard with an unknown biological mother appeared inexplicably, causing his aunt to be sad for such a long time.

At least half of the bullying Lu Yuan suffered in the Duke's Mansion was caused by Bai Shaojie.

Naturally, he didn't take Shen Suian seriously.

Many times, a woman's status is determined by the man in her family.

However, Shen Sui'an also did not take Bai Shaojie seriously.

What's so arrogant about a family that has fallen into decline because of standing on the wrong side and has to rely on the marriage of its daughters to support its family and its connections?

"Even if I can't get the Maritime Special Camp, the Hengshui Shipyard is in my hands." Shen Suian's eyes were cold, and he was unwilling to say more to Bai Shaojie.

Bai Shaojie blocked her way, "Lu Yuan is just a commander of the Pacification Division. Apart from being a dog for the emperor, he has no real power. Do you think he can help you get the Marine Special Battalion?"

"Mrs. Lu, why don't you sell the boat to me? Then you won't lose your dowry."

"Then you are worse than a dog, Master Bai." Shen Sui'an's face darkened, anger welling up in his eyes.

Bai Shaojie's expression changed, "Don't be so shameless."

"Who are you? I'm going to give you face." Shen Suian sneered.

A small official who was paid as a donation for his sinecure actually had the nerve to say that a third-rank commander had no real power.

WTF!

"I just like to buy boats and villages. Even if they are useless, I just like to have fun with them. I have this spare money. Is it your business?"

Bai Shaojie didn't expect Shen Suian to be such an ungrateful person.

"The Bai family and the Lu family are in-laws. You want to break up with our Bai family. Have you thought it through?" Bai Shaojie threatened.

Shen Suian chuckled, she found that Bai Shaojie really looked like Mrs. Lu.

The same high-mindedness, the same arrogance and conceit.

They were all living in the heyday of the Bai family and had no clear understanding that the Bai family was no longer what it used to be.

"Your Bai family is not qualified to stand against me and say such things now. If you dare to go to the Duke's Mansion and say you want to break up with me, I will respect you as a man."

"Master Bai, you don't even dare to breathe loudly in front of Lu Yuan. What else can you do except bullying women?"

"If your Bai family is really so arrogant, your brother wouldn't be squatting in Jingzhao Prefecture now."

Bai Shaojie's face turned pale and blue due to the ridicule.

"Shen, just wait and see. I wonder if your shipyard will become a pile of scrap metal." Bai Shaojie threatened with gritted teeth.

He has already informed the Ministry of Revenue and will definitely not let Hengshui Shiptun get the Maritime Special Camp.

Shen Sui'an turned around and gave him a disdainful look, "I won't sell it to you even if it turns into scrap metal."

"..." Bai Shaojie considered himself a steady and cultured man. This was the first time he was so angry at a woman that he wanted to hit her.

"It's so unlucky. Let's go back and stop shopping." Shen Suian said loudly, turned around and returned to the carriage.

The attendant said indignantly, "If the aunt was not ill, how dare Miss Lu be so arrogant?"

Bai Shaojie took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.

"Tell the Water Tribe leader to speed up."

……

……

Shen Sui'an didn't take Bai Shaojie's visit to her seriously.

After meeting Concubine Yao, she realized that even if Madam Lu was not crazy in this life, she would never be able to wake up.

To be awake is to die.

No one knows what Mrs. Lu experienced in the ancestral temple, but it was certainly not much better than Song Xiuzhi's current situation.

Shen Sui'an no longer felt that the Bai family was a threat.

She concentrated on studying the rouge formula.

I also went to ask Zhou Zhou for advice.

"Doctor Zhou, you are just a doctor, how do you know the formula of rouge?" Shen Suian asked curiously.

"I've seen others do it before." Zhou Zhou said lightly.

Shen Sui'an then remembered that Zhou Zhou seemed to never mention his background, and he seemed to have always been alone. Later, when he saved Cheng Zhiyun and they got married, no family members showed up.

Since Zhou Zhou didn't mention it, she didn't ask any more questions.

"Sister Yun, has anyone from the Marquis' Mansion come to look for you?" Shen Suian asked in a low voice.

Since the last time He Hongkui knew that Cheng Zhiyun was here, he came to the clinic every now and then, and even wanted to use his power to close the clinic.

It was not until Zhou Zhou entered the palace and cured the emperor's headache.

Zhou Zhou refused the emperor's gift to allow him to enter the Imperial Hospital, and asked for a painting written by the emperor himself to be hung in the clinic.

He is a miracle worker who can bring people back to health and save the world.

The signature is the emperor's.

Ordinary people might not be able to recognize it, but He Hongkui could see it at a glance.

He ran over and had another fight with Lu Yuan.

He became even angrier when he couldn't win the fight.

"He hasn't shown up since that time. He must have given up," said Cheng Zhiyun.

She once placed He Hongkui in the most important position and loved him deeply. After being seriously hurt, she can finally face it calmly.

Not loving is the confidence.

"That's good." Shen Sui'an nodded.

Shen Sui'an looked down on He Hongkui. He said that he loved Huan Ge'er the most, but he didn't even know that Huan Ge'er had stridor.

Now he has asked for the title of Crown Prince for his son. I don’t know whether it is for his son’s good or he wants to prove something to Cheng Zhiyun.

She was actually worried about He Xianghuan's current situation in the Marquis' Mansion.

She couldn't tell Cheng Zhiyun about these concerns, for fear that she would get sick again because of worry.

After saying goodbye to Zhou Zhou and his wife, Shen Sui'an returned to the Duke's Mansion. Lu Yuan will be back for dinner tonight.

She asked him about Marquis Jingning's situation.

"Marquis Jingning replaced all the people serving his son, and there are two secret guards protecting him. Even Madam He doesn't know about it." Lu Yuan said.

"He is not afraid that if he asks Madam He to take cruel action against Huan Ge'er if he confer the title of Crown Prince on him at this time." Shen Suian thought that He Hongkui's move was a bit impulsive.

It was obvious that Mrs. He had concealed the fact that Huan'er had wheezing. On the surface, she seemed like a loving mother, but her methods behind the scenes were truly shameful.

But she has never had a son of her own in these years, only a daughter.

Shen Sui'an speculated darkly that if Madam He had a son, she would probably do more than just hide the wheezing disease from Huan Ge'er.

"Mrs. He hasn't lost her mind yet," Lu Yuan said.

"Did you go to Dr. Zhou's clinic today?" he asked.

Shen Sui'an smiled and nodded, "Guess who else I met today."

Lu Yuan looked at her lively and vivid expression with a smile, and shook his head cooperatively, "I can't guess."

"Hmph, Bai Shaojie of the Bai family is just like a mad dog." Shen Suian angrily recounted his encounter with Bai Shaojie.

"…I wanted to open my hidden arrow and shoot him through."

Lu Yuan's eyes darkened, "Why would you need to kill him?"

Shen Sui'an: "No, I still have to see how he jumps around and then sees his expression when he realizes that it's all in vain."

"Didn't he say that I couldn't get a shipping franchise? He's so capable, so let him get one."

"You entered the palace today? What did Concubine Yao tell you?"
