Chapter 345: Plotting

Looking at the haggard Mrs. Jiang, Chen Afu also felt some sympathy.

Chen Shiying is, in and of himself, very bright. With his good looks, superior intelligence, gentle manners, youthfulness, and affable demeanor towards everyone, he is quite the catch. However, with a difficult mother and a troublesome daughter, and his lack of interest in the affairs of the inner court, any woman married to him could expect a hard life.

Chen Afu did not want to pry any further into the problems plaguing the Chens' Mansion, so she didn't ask any more questions.

Chen Yuqing's voice was barely a whisper as she pressed her lips to her ear and warned, "Older sister, you and your husband must be cautious when you visit the family home in the future... remember this!"

Then, she straightened her back as if she had never said those words.

Mystified by Chen Yuqing's cryptic words and feeling a chill in her stomach, Chen Afu was just about to ask for clarification when Mrs. Jiang stood up to leave.
