990 Chapter 990 “Toughen Her Up“
"Yes, your highness. This is a special chair named sofa. Unlike any other normal chair, this chair is made of leather and a bunch of cotton making the seat become extremely pillowy" Li Shi Ying nodded while answering the empress.
She noticed that the empress knew about this chair, could it be she already saw it somewhere else before?
"This chair is owned only by the previous emperor how could you..." The empress tightened her fist as she threw a sharp glare at Li Shi Ying. How could this girl have something as valuable as this?
She had tried this thing called sofa and liked it very much yet her father-in-law, the previous emperor didn’t give the sofa to her. Now, this puny human gets one, what does this mean? In the previous emperor’s eyes, this human is more precious??
She had heard that this human was a rare translator that could help their kingdom but she’s still a human! How could her father-in-law choose this human over her?
"Ah, the previous emperor gifted me a set of sofa yesterday. That’s how I get my hand on this chair" Li Shi Ying paused a bit before telling the truth. The moment she mentioned the previous emperor, even Yan Fenghuang was stunned.
This girl got a gift from the previous emperor? So not only the emperor favoured her but also the previous emperor?
"Impossible. How could..." Yan Fenghuang pointed her finger to Li Shi Ying while trembling in suppressed jealousy. She had never got anything from the previous emperor yet once again this b*tch got one!
The gift was even something very valuable only owned by the previous emperor. Isn’t this a clear sign that the previous emperor supported this human girl?
They had intended to humiliate her by not giving her chair but now she took out one with superior quality? Isn’t this a slap to their face?!
Yan Fenghuang cheek turned red from embarrassment while the empress had blank look on her face. The empress was really dumbfounded.
She knew that her husband had always wanted a daughter so it’s logical for him to dote on this human girl but father-in-law? He’s strict! He also already had her as his daughter-in-law so how...
"Is there something wrong?" Li Shi Ying saw the empress didn’t talk again and the girl suddenly became nervous. Could it be that the sofa shocked the empress to much? But she didn’t do anything wrong, okay? It’s all the empress fault for not giving her any seat!
"Nevermind" the empress took a deep breath and sighed. It would be hard for her to oppose this human girl from marrying her son if the emperor and the previous emperor already supported her.
Indeed this girl doesn’t seem like a bad choice except for her unknown origin and her race as a human. If she could be honest, this girl looked better than Yan Fenghuang. Even her son liked this girl what else could she do?
The empress slowly changed her mind but she still stubbornly stocked to the plan. A future empress had to be someone strong both in physical and mental. Just treated this tea party as a way to ’toughen’ this girl.
"Right it’s time to give the present" Yan Fenghuang saw that the empress doesn’t seem too hostile to Li Shi Ying anymore and the girl panicked. She quickly shifted the conversation to another topic.
It’s always been a tradition for the guest to bring a present to the one holding the tea party do today the ladies had to give something to the empress. If the empress liked the present, she would give a gift in exchange.
Yan Fenghuang realized that the empress backed down a bit after knowing that her father-in-law supported this human girl. She couldn’t let the empress changed her mind! Let’s see who could give the best present for the empress.
The empress would surely be pleased with her gift. What a human possibly could give to the empress?
"Oh right. Let’s start from Yan’er as usual" the empress smiled before patting Yan Fenghuang’s back. She was indeed a bit afraid to offend her father-in-law for this human girl but it doesn’t mean she didn’t have any other way to torture her.
Let Yan Fenghuang give the humiliation this human deserved. If this girl couldn’t handle such a thing, she won’t be able to become a good empress in the future. Even when she was young before, she had swallowed a lot of humiliation from her deceased mother-in-law.
It was all to toughen her heart so that she won’t easily be influenced by others’ saying.
"I bring this for auntie today" Yan Fenghuang showed a smug smile on her face before she clapped her hand calling her maidservant to bring the gift. Coincidentally today she got a good present for the empress. No one would be able to defeat her!
"Oh, what is it? You have always given me a unique, rare gift" The empress stole a glance at Li Shi Ying and when she saw the girl didn’t look intimidated at all, a sense of admiration merged in her heart.
This girl really had a tough mental. She could stand most humiliation and even had a way to reverse it. Not to mention she always had something that could make others envied her. For example that exotic pet of her. Now she also wanted to have a new pet.
A new pet like...that small creature on this human girl’s shoulder...
