Sorry, My Wife Has a Hole in Her Brain Chapter 14

Both the master and the servant were happy on Third Young Master Wen’s side, and Su Wenqing was in a good mood too. The matter that had been weighing on her mind for days was about to be accomplished, and Su Wenqing found everyone friendly and lovable.

Su Zhining saw Su Wenqing from a distance. She ran over and took Su Wenqing's arm affectionately, pretending to complain: "Where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time!"

Seeing her beaming look, Su Wenqing joked, "Oh, you’ve finished chatting with 'Brother Xiuyan' so quickly?"

Su Zhining blushed and scolded shyly, "You are not allowed to call him so affectionately, I am the only one who is allowed to call him 'Brother Xiuyan'!"

Su Wenqing deliberately spread her hands, "Grandmother Wang is related to our family, so Brother Wang is naturally our brother. If I don't call him 'Brother Xiuyan', what should I call him?"

Su Zhining stamped her feet in anger, "You...you just...you can just call Brother Xiuyan 'Young Master Wang', that's how Su Jinsheng calls him."

Su Wenqing saw that Su Zhining was very cute when she was anxious and angry, so she couldn't help but tease her, "This is very rude, Grandmother will scold me."

Su Zhining's fair cheeks flushed with shame, "You clearly told me that you would not compete with me for Brother Xiuyan, and, and isn’t the person you like Young Master Xie? You said last night that you..."

Su Wenqing wanted to hit herself to death with a hammer when she heard this. Although Su Zhining's voice was not loud, many people around looked in their direction. Is this the meaning of shooting oneself in the foot? Su Wenqing hurriedly admitted her mistake, "Yes, yes, yes, Young Master Wang is fine. I will call him Young Master Wang from now on. Second Sister, look, isn't the Wuling River beautiful?"

Su Zhining: ...Isn't this topic change a bit too abrupt...

Su Wenqing affectionately took Su Zhining's arm back and said, "Look at the vast blue waves."

Su Zhining: "By the way, I think I saw Young Master Xie just now."

"Look at the green mountains and clear waters."

"Wait, have you seen Young Master Xie? Where is he?"

Su Zhining won the first battle. She said proudly: "Huh, you feel anxious now?"

Su Wenqing was willing to sacrifice her dignity to save her life. She shook Su Zhining's hand and said coquettishly, "Second Sister."

"That's..." Su Zhining's attention was suddenly interrupted by the commotion around her. She pulled Su Wenqing and said, "Are we going to get on the boat? I think I heard someone calling our names."

...What's so good about getting on the boat!! Su Wenqing roared in her heart, at least point out to her who Xie Shian is! So, she can take a detour when she sees him later!!

Nearly a hundred bamboo rafts and small boats were docked on the clear Wuling River. The Southern Dynasty valued elegance, and bamboo rafting has become a popular hobby among aristocratic families in recent years. However, the bamboo rafts were simple, and Jin Wangfei was worried about their safety, so she specially prepared small boats for the female members of the family.

Su Wenqing and Su Zhining followed the entourage of Jin Wang's Mansion to the riverside.

On the small boat, Su Jinsheng and a round-faced girl in gorgeous clothes had already taken their seats. Su Wenqing greeted them and was about to get on the boat, but before she could step on the boat, Su Zhining pulled her.

Su Wenqing looked at the young lady beside her with a confused look on her face, then looked at the round-faced girl on the boat.

Su Zhining asked angrily: "Why are you here?"

The round-faced girl didn't look bitter, she looked a bit mean. Her tone was very unkind, "Do you think I want to be here? If you hadn't been pestering my second brother, how could I have been late to board the boat? If not for that, why would I degrade myself and end up sharing a boat with you!"

As soon as the words "Second Brother" came out, Su Wenqing guessed that this girl must be Wang Ruoyan, the younger sister of Wang Xiuyan, whom Su Zhining had scolded all night yesterday.

"Degrade yourself?" Su Zhining glared angrily, "You said that as if I am willing to ride on the same boat with you!"

Su Wenqing felt both embarrassed and innocent. In fact, the grudge between the two had nothing to do with her. Su Zhining pulled her. To those who didn't know the situation, it seemed like the two of them were teaming up to bully Miss Wang.

Seeing more and more people looking towards their direction, Su Wenqing gently pulled Su Zhining's clothes, trying to resolve the deadlock, "Since Second Sister doesn't want to share a boat with her, why don't we go to the back, there are still many empty boats."

Su Zhining was dissatisfied and said, "Why should we go to the back? She should go."

Wang Ruoyan said sarcastically, "Although both the Wang and Su families belong to the five great families of the Southern Dynasty, there is a world of difference between the Su and Wang families. When the Wang family was at its peak, your Su family was not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the Wang family. Now a concubine's daughter is dreaming of marrying my brother as his main wife. Didn't your family teach you how to write the words 'self-knowledge'?"

Su Wenqing originally didn't want to get involved in this muddy water, but given her second sister's personality, if she couldn't win the argument, she would not be able to get on the boat.

She deliberately smiled harmlessly and innocently, "Oh, is the Wang family so powerful? I am really ignorant. I only know that the Xie family seems to be the leader among the noble families nowadays."

Wang Ruoyan felt as if someone had stepped on her tail when she heard this. She pointed at Su Wenqing angrily and said, "The Xie family is the Xie family. Who the hell are you? You are not worthy of mentioning the Xie family."

Su Wenqing looked puzzled, but she had not completely understood the history of the Wang and Xie families, and she was afraid of being slapped in the face if she spoke rashly.

Just when Su Wenqing was racking her brain to figure out a way to deal with the situation, Su Jinsheng, who had been sitting quietly at the bow of the boat, spoke.

"When the Wang family was at its peak? You have the nerve to bring up things that happened more than a hundred years ago every day. Are you afraid that others don't know that with each generation, your Wang family is getting weaker and weaker?"

Su Wenqing: ...Eldest Sister is great. She makes people want to kneel down when she opens her mouth...

Wang Ruoyan was so angry, "What did you say? Say it again! Don't think that you can be so unscrupulous just because my mother likes you. Our Wang family has not decided on you!"

Su Jinsheng glanced at her coldly, "I would say the same thing even if you call your mother over. I just don't know if you dare to tell your mother what I just said."

"You!" Wang Ruoyan was speechless for a moment. She angrily flicked her silk handkerchief and turned her head away.

Su Zhining proudly pulled Su Wenqing onto the boat and said, "Some people always live in the past. A hero never talks about his past achievements. Isn't it shameful to talk about the merits of your ancestors every day? They are all born of the same parents, but there is a world of difference between the elder brother and his younger sister."

Su Wenqing didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She shook her head helplessly, but her eyes were caught by the young man in light blue wide-sleeved brocade casual clothes who was about to board the bamboo raft not far ahead.

Su Wenqing recognized him as the young man who helped her find the way yesterday. When the young man met her gaze, he was stunned at first, and then smiled at her very politely.

Su Wenqing hurriedly smiled back, and when the young man turned his head, Su Wenqing quickly tugged at Su Zhining's sleeve, "Second Sister, who is that young man over there?"

Su Zhining raised her head and looked in the direction Su Wenqing pointed. She was puzzled and said, "Brother Xiuyan, don't you know him?"

Su Wenqing looked back and saw that only Wang Xiuyan was beside the boat in front. The young man in the light blue wide-sleeved brocade casual clothes had disappeared.

As Xiao Yun was dragged back by Xie Shian, he asked in confusion: "We are about to board the ship, where are you going?"

Xie Shian remained calm and said, "That boat is too far in front. Let's find one that's a little further back."

Xiao Yun understood and said, "That's the third daughter of the Su family, right? Are you avoiding her?"

Xie Shian paused, "Do you know this kind of a person? As soon as you meet them, you can predict that they will definitely bring twists and turns to your life in the future."

Xiao Yun said: "I know, this is destined."

Xie Shian turned around and said, "No, this is a conflict of fate."
