Chapter 23 Shopping
After Su Jin got on the carriage, Xie Jingchen mounted his horse, and the two headed back to the mansion.
Once they passed the side gate of the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion, the carriage stopped again.
Su Jin crawled out of the carriage, and Xie Jingchen took her on a horseback ride through the streets.
Su Jin could flaunt their affection in front of others without blushing or panting, but she couldn’t do it in front of the Dongxiang Marquis and Mrs. Tang, so she had to avoid them a little.
Swaggering back through the streets, letting people know she was the recognized Eldest Young Madam of the Duke Zhen Country Mansion, the apple of Young Master Xie’s eye, their love genuine and not at all like a flower stuck in cow dung as people might think.
In the future, when targeting her, consider the weight of the Dongxiang Marquis Mansion and the Duke Zhen Country Mansion when throwing rotten eggs.
The two rode on horseback, chatting and laughing as they went, while Xingxing enjoyed the spacious carriage all to herself, lying inside comfortably.
Su Jin planned to avoid the Dongxiang Marquis and Mrs. Tang, not wanting them to know, but unfortunately, she couldn’t hide it.
The Dongxiang Marquis, worried, had a servant follow them to escort them back to the Duke Zhen Country Mansion, only to see this scene and quickly report it back to the Dongxiang Marquis.
The Dongxiang Marquis happily declared, "I was worried they were just pretending to be affectionate to placate me, but it turns out they are even more in love than I thought."
Mrs. Tang couldn’t help but smile, "My daughter has grown up and even learned to be shy in front of her parents, but in front of others... ."
