The Hunter’s Lively Wife
Chapter 1290: Honorable

Chapter 1290: Chapter 1290: Honorable

The position of Empress was vacant, and aside from the Emperor, Empress Dowager was the only legitimate wife among them, obviously, her status was more prestigious compared to the other princes’ wives.

The nobles from Jincheng, upon hearing that the Prince’s wife was hosting a full-moon celebration for the Little Prince, had sent their people over early.

The locals knew of Su Yunjin’s identity, but the people from Jincheng did not, and they were quite surprised that the Prince’s wife would recognize a sworn sister here.

Of course, surprising as it may be, she was a prince’s wife after all, and the decisions she made were not for outsiders to gossip about, so naturally, everyone kept quiet.

Moreover, people like Jiang Zhizhi had been driven out before for speaking disrespectfully to Su Yunjin, so the remaining ones certainly did not want to repeat the same mistake.

Everyone remained silent, just watching from below. Lingling was the prince’s wife’s head maid, and Su Yunjin was quite tactful. Although the prince’s wife was kind to her and had Lingling assist her, Su Yunjin did not really lean on Lingling but merely placed her hand gently on Lingling’s.

To demand Lingling to serve her as she served the Prince’s wife, in front of such a crowd, would be stepping out of line and could lead to gossip.

She hadn’t officially become the prince’s wife’s sworn sister yet, but she dared to assume the demeanor of a lady of the house. Especially among these groups of women, who were prone to gossip.

The Little Prince’s full-moon celebration was a matter for the women of the inner court, and the attendees were mostly ladies and wives from noble families. Su Yunjin took a walk around the front and side courtyards today and noticed that most attendees were women; there were men too, but relatively, there were almost half as many men as women.

When the Prince’s wife saw Su Yunjin walking onto the stage, she personally went to assist her. Su Yunjin quickly bowed in respect. The Prince’s wife originally intended to tell Su Yunjin not to be too formal, but considering the many people watching, she refrained from doing so. The two walked to the middle of the stage, one behind the other, with Su Yunjin standing silently by the side.

Today, the Prince’s wife was the host, and it was fitting for her to speak first. Su Yunjin stood quietly aside and saw the Prince’s wife grasp her hand and speak out loud.

"Today is my son’s full-moon celebration. I thank all the ladies and mistresses who have traveled from afar to celebrate my son. On this joyous occasion of my son’s full moon, I have another piece of good news to announce." She paused, then looked at Su Yunjin with a smile.

The audience below had already heard about the Prince’s wife recognizing Su Yunjin as her sworn sister, so they were not surprised by what she was about to announce.

After exchanging smiles, the Prince’s wife looked at the audience again, "Since I came here to recuperate during my pregnancy, Mistress Su has saved my life and the life of my child multiple times. When I was giving birth to my son and encountered complications, it was Mistress Su who saved both me and my child. Mistress Su has a life-saving grace towards me and my child. Here, in front of everyone, I officially recognize Mistress Su as my sworn sister. From now on, Mistress Su is my sister, and she should be treated with the same respect as me. Any disrespect towards Mistress Su is discontent towards me."

A maid brought the Ice Bracelet, and the Prince’s wife opened the brocade box, personally taking out a pair of Ice Bracelets to place them on Su Yunjin’s wrists.
