Shrewd wife of Lin brothers

Chapter 591 Shen cousins are here!

　　Ji Shan felt like she was flying in the air as she walked alongside the young missies and played coy with all the young masters who were trying to get close to her. Now that she was going to be adopted as the granddaughter of the Shen family which was famous for its rich grandeur and wealth, people who used to ignore her were rushing to butter her up. Even these young masters once said that she was only fit to become their Concubine given that she could bring no advantage to their family except her pretty face that was like a vixen and other than her face they were not interested in anything else.

But now things were different, she was no longer the useless granddaughter of the Ji family, she was the adoptive granddaughter of the Shen family, the one who was pampered and doted on by the Shen family’s matriarch the most! Of course, they will go down on their knees and coax her with sweet talks. Humph, like she was going to let them coax her, they can try as much as they want but she would never look in their direction anymore. With her status, now she can cosy up to the son of the prime minister why will she waste her time on these small flies?

However, since they want to play nice to her and praise her beauty then she will let them humour her because even a Queen has a jester, what’s wrong if she were to keep a few jesters for herself? Anyway she wasn’t asking them to get close to her by pulling such things out of their mouth was she?

They were willingly saying those things to her because they wanted to, not because she asked them, so what can she do about it?

Throughout the entire time when the young masters were trying to win over her, Ji Shan took a good look at their faces and it was with great regret that she realised that none of these men was as good-looking as the men of the shared wife. Though they looked good, they were a bit too weak, like a pampered yellow chick, they were lacking the testosterone and didn’t look manly at all. She pursed her lips why didn’t she see it before these men were no good yet she was running after them like a mad woman.

Ji Shan was willing to admit that the men of that woman with eyes that were similar to Aunt Shen Shui were good-looking, she was someone who wouldn’t take another look at anything that was second-hand, well at least not anymore. 

She believed that once she moves to the capital after bullying Old madam Shen into giving in to her whims she was certain that she will be able to find a man that was loads better than them. After all, they were in the end village men with no good prospects but she was different and her man will surely be different as well. 

Ji Shan smiled as she planned her future, while she was smiling the banquet door once again opened and  Shen Zeyu strolled in with his elder cousin Shen Yuchen.  The two were the eldest sons of their families and in fact, they didn’t want to attend this banquet either, as they knew very well that their fathers were already living with their sister and were even having the time of their lives while pushing their poor sons to work hard and manage their business like ugly capitalists. 

They wanted to stay at home and do nothing but suddenly the two of them came up with a perfect plan—- their fathers were having fun weren’t they? Doesn’t that mean that today, in this very banquet their big secret will come out? How can they miss the torture their fathers will go through once their grandmother found out the truth that they were actually hiding her granddaughter from her all along?

Wouldn’t she break their legs? Hehe, this was such an act of incredible revenge. If they were to miss their fathers running for their lives then it will be a shame on their existence, after all, they were bullied by their fathers so much that this was the least they deserved didn’t they?

So, the two accepted the invitation and came to the banquet.

As soon as Shen Yuchen and Shen Zeyu walked in the entire banquet hall was thrown in an uproar. Shen Yuchen’s name was particularly famous in the capital, it was said that the boy took his father’s butchery to another level by using his wits and business strategies though he was a rough-looking man, it only added to his charm making him look even more beautiful and handsome like a devil trying to entice someone into making a deal with him.

Shen Zeyu on the other hand was far gentler than his big and burly cousin but the smile on his face like that of a sly fox told others that he wasn’t one to be bullied easily and they should not try crossing him. His gentle pace, tall figure and beautiful face which was a mixture of his parents’ best features made him the centre of attention in seconds.

Within a few seconds, the banquet hall fell in silence as the girls all swooned, even Ji Shan was startled by their beauty, especially Shen Yuchen who was both muscular and yet handsome just like the men of that woman.

While she was staring at him, someone harshly poked her in the ribs causing her to frown when she turned around to see who it was, she realised that it was her grandfather who was glaring at her unhappily. ” What are you looking at them with that infatuation-filled gaze? Don’t forget that they are your cousin’s brothers now and you can no longer have a future with them so wipe that expression off your face and just go and greet them with a respectful smile and not like a prostitute looking for her next customer!”
