The matter of Shen Yue and Shen Dongling's exchange of marriages, after all, had unimaginable consequences. At the request of the Wang family, Shen Wan had no choice but to agree to let Shen Yue marry as his wife. I don't know what Shen Dongling and the Wang family said this time, why the Wang family refused to listen to Shen Wan's explanation. A good marriage can't end up being an enemy, so Shen Wan has no choice.
But this was not what Shen Yue wanted. This time, there was no one else who could exchange relatives with Shen Yue, Shen Yue simply tore her face, arguing to death all day and didn't want to marry into the Wang family, and she couldn't tolerate Shen Dongling being on an equal footing with her.
Not only was Shen Yue unwilling, Chen Rou Qiu was also very angry. Chen Rouqiu was usually a person with general knowledge, but it was a matter of Shen Yue's life, but she couldn't bear it, she insisted on asking Shen Wan to go to the Wang family for an explanation. The three-bedroom couple who have always been in love with each other have had frequent conflicts these days, which made the servants of Qiushuiyuan not dare to come out.
The same is true today.
Chen Rouqiu was pacing back and forth in the room, then suddenly turned her head and walked in front of Shen Wan, and said anxiously, "What is the Wang family thinking now, we can't let Yue'er drag on like this. That little bitch Shen Dongling is occupying our Yue'er. Is it because you still want to be a serious young lady. My lord, go to the Wang family for theory!"
She was a "little bitch", and she was completely different from the good upbringing and grooming in Su Ri, and Shen Wan couldn't help frowning. He patiently said: "At this moment, the only way is to let Yue'er marry in the name of a flat wife, and then make plans. You are arguing all day long, and Yue'er is uneasy, there is absolutely no way!"
"Master!" Chen Rouqiu said sharply, "Yue'er is also your daughter, and also the direct daughter of our three-bedroom family. She has grown up like a pearl. How can you say that you want her to be your equal wife? What's more, it's still on an equal footing with that little bitch Shen Dongling! Even if this is Yue'er's fault, there must be a reason for Shen Dongling's temptation, how can you be so ruthless!"
It seemed that Chen Rouqiu's voice pierced his ears, and Shen Wan said angrily, "Then what do you say? The longer things are delayed, the only person who will suffer will be Yue'er. Just like you said, the trouble goes away, Shen Dongling is a concubine. Influence, Yue'er will be pointed at the nose and made a joke, and the Shen residence will also become a joke, so what about you?"
Chen Rouqiu was startled by Shen Wan's angry voice, and she shivered a little, but then she thought of Shen Yue, and said again, "But we can't just let Yue'er suffer like this? No way, I'll go to the palace and say it myself!"
"Enough!" Shen Wan said angrily: "You stay in the mansion, be optimistic about Shen Yue, and don't cause me trouble is the right way!"
Chen Rou Qiu was stunned. After living with Shen Wan for so many years, even when she was the most angry, Shen Wan never said that to her. As if it was disgust and impatience, she felt a tightness in her heart, and she said subconsciously: "You and I, a young husband and wife, used to be loving and harmonious, and we agreed that we would not take a concubine, but now you think that my color is withered, and my mother said that I would give it to you all day long. Taking a concubine, are you tempted, you despise me... "
Chen Rouqiu has always been a bit petty, although she is a scholar, but she is particularly fond of her petty temperament, and Shen Wan likes her very much. The days of mixing oil with honey have been too long, and it will inevitably be boring. If you pretend to be just right, it will also make men feel pity. It's a pity that it's fun to sit up when you're young, but when you're old, it's a bit off-putting.
Especially these few days Chen Rouqiu was running around because of Shen Yue's affairs, her face was haggard, and she didn't take care of herself very much, and in addition to the rude and rude trouble just now, in Shen Wan's eyes, it was a bit ridiculous. He glanced at Chen Rouqiu lightly and said, "If you want to think so, just think so." He turned around and walked away.
Chen Rou Qiu was stunned, and stood on the spot shaky, the girl Shi Qing and Hua Yi beside her hurriedly supported her. A layer of fear gradually filled Chen Rou Qiu's heart. She suddenly felt that something was slowly changing, and the most frightening thing was that she didn't know where the change started.
The uproar in Qiushuiyuan soon spread to other courtyards, such as the long-standing West courtyard.
The west courtyard is spacious and almost depressing. Ever since Chang Zaiqing moved in, he has often moved around with flowers and plants, but he has turned the west courtyard into a unique and elegant place. At this moment, Chang Zaiqing was sitting in the room, put away the letter on the table, and put it on the desk.
Grandma Zhao opened the window to avoid panic in the room, and said to Chang Zaiqing, "Is it a letter from Mrs. Shen?"
Chang Zai Qing nodded.
The letter sent by Luo Xueyan... In fact, Chang Zaiqing was not sure whether it was Luo Xueyan or Shen Miao, when she thought of Shen Miao, the clear eyes of the young girl that day seemed to understand everything appeared in her mind, causing her to shudder involuntarily. . Luo Xueyan said in the letter that Chang Zaiqing hadn't been to Shen's house for a long time. If he had time, he could go to Shen's house and have a seat. Luo Xueyan still wanted to find a good family for Chang Zaiqing.
Said to be looking for a good family, but Chang Zaiqing thought of something else from this letter.
A few days ago, she switched from dealing with Shen Xin to dealing with Shen Wan. Dealing with Shen Wan was much easier than Chang Zaiqing thought. There was no other reason. . And since the accident between Shen Yue and Shen Dongling, the conflict between Shen Wan and Chen Rouqiu has become more and more serious, but they really like to come to the West Courtyard. Chang Zaiqing has naturally become a beautiful woman who understands the language. After going back and forth, Shen Wan is more and more accustomed to running here, and Chang Zaiqing does not ignore the growing appreciation in Shen Wan's eyes.
The iron must be struck while it's hot, right now... Is it the "hot" time
Just thinking about it, the maid outside came in to report that it was Shen Wan.
Mommy Zhao quickly backed out, and when Shen Wan entered the room, what he saw was Chang Zaiqing holding a letter in his hand, reading it with relish. Then he asked curiously, "Whose letter is this? You look so fascinated?"
Chang Zaiqing seemed to have just seen Shen Wan come in. He smiled and put down the letter in his hand and said, "It's a letter from Mrs. Shen."
The smile on Shen Wan's face was stagnant, and he pretended to ask casually, "What are you doing with the letter?"
Chang Zaiqing said with a smile: "Mrs. Shen's family is a good person. She said she wanted to be a matchmaker with me. It's probably because I don't have any support at my age. It's also a good intention." She said heartily, and glanced at Shen. Wan, said again: "If the third master is free someday, he will have to help me to see, maybe I know what the 'good family' the eldest lady told me."
She smiled happily to herself, and her features became more and more beautiful, but Shen Wan gradually stopped laughing.
Rongjingtang is also talking about this idea in the Shen residence.
Old Madam Shen sat on the couch, the maid behind her gently hammered her shoulders, and Mama Wang said softly, "Old Madam, the third master has gone to the West Court again."
Old Shen Furen's closed eyes opened slightly, as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she slowly closed her eyes and said, "Just go, even if your status is lower, she is still a concubine, and she doesn't care about her status."
Wang's mother also smiled and said, "Now the old lady can rest assured. Originally, the third master was always reluctant to take his concubine, but now with the girl Zaiqing first, the third master will always accept others in the future, and then spread out. Ye, you can always give birth to a boy and a girl."
The old lady Shen sighed: "If the Shen residence doesn't have a grandson right now, why should I intervene in his yard. He used to protect Chen Rouqiu so tightly, he didn't even listen to me as a mother, seeing Chen Rouqiu there I was arrogant in front of me. At that time, I said, I am not afraid that Chen Rouqiu will be favored right now, she will not be able to give birth to a son, and all men are greedy for freshman, she will be disliked one day, no, isn’t that what I said?”
Mama Wang hurriedly echoed the words of the old lady Shen: "That is, the old lady has eaten more salt than the rice they have eaten. After seeing things naturally, they will look far ahead."
Old Shen Furen seemed to enjoy Mother Wang's flattery very much, with a hint of pride on her face, and said, "I had known that the third child liked this kind of woman, I should have found more concubines from the scholarly family. President Chen Rouqiu She thinks that she is invincible in the world, and she doesn't look at her like that. She thinks that her mother's family is very proud of reading a few more books, and she can't even manage her family." After that, she added, "I think Chang Zaiqing is pretty good. Be well-behaved and polite, and don't take Qiao, the third child can be forgiven for liking her."
"But I haven't said anything yet." Wang's mother said, "If it goes on like this, when the third lady finds out the clue, I'm afraid there will be trouble."
"To make trouble? She dares!" Madam Shen said angrily, then thought about it carefully, and waved her hand tiredly: "But it is troublesome to make trouble. Forget it, since both of you are interested, you can go up and help in a few days. Help, the boat is done, I think Mrs. Chen dares to stop her? If you dare, the Shen family can't afford such a jealous and childless mistress, so send her a letter of divorce."
Mama Wang had to say yes carefully.
…
The mess of the three rooms in the Shen residence finally reached the other owner of the matter, Shen Dongling.
Xinghua is carefully making tea for Shen Dongling, the good Junshan Yinzhen, although the Wang family is not a wealthy country, but they are also well-dressed, and the treatment is more than a star and a half better than the treatment of the prostitutes. And Shen Dongling was obviously doing well. If the Shen family were present, they would be surprised that this beautiful lady with a relaxed and cheerful face in front of her was actually the obedient concubine of the second room
Shen Dongling picked up the tea and took a sip, Xinghua said worriedly: "My servant heard that someone from the Shen residence came over again this morning, saying that the second young lady will be married as his wife. If the second young lady really enters the door, what will the young lady do? I'm afraid that the third lady and the third master will stumble upon the young lady."
"Don't worry, she won't get married." Shen Dongling said with a smile: "The Wang family can't let Shen Yue enter the door, even if Shen Yue enters the door, it's impossible to live well, and those who are destined to be guarded pay attention to what to do, It's better to pick out a few pieces of beautiful fabrics and send them to my aunt and let her make some new clothes."
At this moment, Shen Dongling seemed to have the air of being the mistress of the house in every gesture. Xinghua thought about it for a while, then smiled again: "Miss is smart, it's fine for this servant to not understand. I don't know what the lady said to Uncle Wang that day, but now she doesn't like seeing Sanfang at all. The people who are here are also self-inflicted, and it is clearly that the third lady proposed to change the parents, and it is too vicious to want to pour all the dirty water on the lady."
Shen Yue said that everything was calculated by Shen Dongling about the exchange of marriages. When Shen Yue asked Shen Dongling to marry instead of herself, she clearly said that she would not involve Shen Dongling, so she turned her head and shunned herself away. This face-changing effort was too quick, and Xinghua scoffed at it.
Otherwise, Shen Wanqing was confused for a while, the reason why the Wang family didn't like to see the third room is because Shen Dongling said something to Wang Bi, Shen Yue admired King Ding Fu Xiuyi, and the third room also wanted to stand on Fu Xiuyi's side. .
Shen Wan wholeheartedly wanted Shen Yue to get rid of the idea of marrying Fu Xiuyi, and chose the Wang family, because the Wang family was not in the Fu Xiuyi faction in the struggle for succession. In the end, what Shen Yue admired was King Ding, and the third house of the Shen family supported King Ding. If Wang Bi married Shen Yue, he would inevitably cause trouble in the future. If the Wang family and the Shen family were to marry each other, discord would inevitably arise in the future. Therefore, as long as the Wang family is not stupid, they will not let Shen Yue enter the door again. Even Shen Dongling's exchange of relatives is a blessing to the Wang family. Isn't it good to be able to distance himself from Prince Ding
The fate between Shen Yue and the Wang family was destined to end. However, Shen Dongling would not feel pity or sympathy for this. What kind of cause will be the result, all of this is Shen Yue's own sin, so she naturally wants to swallow the bitter fruit herself.
To let Shen Yue marry in the name of a flat wife is the Wang family deliberately making things difficult, but Shen Wan agreed, will Shen Yue do it obediently? Shen Dongling didn't think so.
Not only Shen Dongling did not think so, Shen Miao also did not think so.
Jing Zhe said, "There's been a lot of trouble in the Shen residence. This time the show is really lively."
Shen Miao smiled nonchalantly, "Perhaps, the bigger the trouble, the more we will get rid of it."
Jing Zhe looked at Shen Miao, walked aside and whispered to Gu Yu, "What happened to the young lady these few days, why does she seem not to be in high spirits?"
Gu Yu was stunned for a while, and looked towards Shen Miao, only to see Shen Miao sitting in the courtyard without turning the pages of the book, resting her chin in one hand, looking at Zhang Kong lazily, not knowing what she was thinking.
"It seems to be a little bit." Gu Yu also nodded and said, "I haven't said anything in the past few days."
"It's more than lack of energy?" Jing Zhe shook his head: "If in the past, seeing the unfortunate situation of the Shen residence, the girl would always be a little happy. Now that the Shen residence is in a mess, the girl just waved her hand, as if she had no interest. Could it be that she is sick?"
"If you can eat and drink, you can walk and dance, what kind of disease can be like this?" Gu Yu rolled his eyes, "Do you think this is lovesickness?"
"Who is suffering from lovesickness?" A voice came from behind, and the two were startled. When they looked back, Luo Ling came over. Jing Zhe and Gu Yu hurriedly asked An: "This servant has seen Young Master Biao."
Luo Ling waved his hand and walked towards Shen Miao in front of the stone table. After walking to Shen Miao's side, seeing Shen Miao still sitting in a daze, she asked, "Little cousin?"
Shen Miao turned her head and saw that it was Luo Ling, she smiled and said, "Cousin Ling."
Luo Ling sat down opposite Shen Miao, his right hand was still not good, but Shen Qiu found a left-handed sword technique for Luo Ling, and these days he has really practiced his left-handed sword seriously. He opened up a lot, and his conversation was even higher than before, and he seemed to be more and more warm. Occasionally, when she went out, it was also the girl who shyly peeked. Hearing Luo Tan jokingly said, several officials in Ding capital secretly favored Luo Ling.
Luo Ling said: "What is the little cousin thinking so ecstatically?"
Shen Miao smiled slightly, "It's nothing, just sitting in a daze."
Luo Ling thought about the "lovesickness" that Jingcai and Gu Yu had mentioned earlier, his heart sank and he looked at Shen Miao but asked without showing any traces, "I thought my little cousin was at the age when she should get married, so she is also a little tired and lazy. already."
Shen Miao did not seem to understand Luo Ling's words and said indifferently, "Speaking of the age to get married, perhaps Cousin Tan is anxious first."
Luo Ling smiled and said, "Yes."
Shen Miao looked at Luo Ling, "Cousin Ling, what is the matter with me?"
Luo Ling was stunned, Junxiu's face could not help but show a hint of embarrassment, he originally came to look at Shen Miao, Shen Miao asked him what was the matter, but he did not know how to answer. But it was a clever move: "Uh, some of the cakes that my little cousin gave me a few days ago were too sweet, so let's talk to my little cousin."
Behind Gu Yu looked resentful, her own girl was not a cook in Shen's residence, nor was she a pastry chef specializing in pastry, Luo Ling blamed Shen Miao for eating Shen Miao's pastries.
Jing Zhe was holding back his smile, Gu Yu's elm-pumped head could not be seen, but she was smart, which showed that the young master clearly wanted to get close to Shen Miao, but he could not find any other excuse. But... Jing Zhe looked at his girl with no heart, and shook his head with some pity. Luo Hua was intentional and ruthless, expressing the young master's heart and mind, I'm afraid that his own girl would not be able to appreciate it.
Shen Miao really frowned and asked, "Too sweet? I didn't add a lot of sugar juice."
Luo Ling scratched his head more and more embarrassedly, thinking of something, and said, "Cough, Tan'er once said that my little cousin can make cakes with the aroma of juice, can you do that with me next time?"
Shen Miao was startled.
Luo Tan often came to Shen Miao's courtyard to talk to Shen Miao, and occasionally the cakes on the table would be eaten with their mouths open. Shen Miao tried to make the cakes herself, after all, she had never made them in her whole life, so it would be a little bit sloppy to make them again, but Luo Tan thought it was delicious, so she ate the whole basket of cakes.
The cakes were mixed with fruit juice and water, which was the taste of the Great Liang Royal Family, Xie Jing Xing asked Shen Miao to make him two baskets of cakes to satisfy his hunger when he killed people. Later, Princess Ming An was really killed by Xie Jing Xing, but the two baskets of cakes were given to Xie Jing Xing. Afterwards, Xie Jing Xing disappeared for a while, Shen Miao was watching the farce in the Shen residence these days while making cakes, thinking about repaying the other party's favor.
Thinking like this, Shen Miao's eyes gradually lowered, and speaking, Xie Jing Xing had been away for a few days, Prince Rui of Great Liang just left so casually, and there was not much wind in the Ding capital. Xie Jing Xing did not know whether An was safe or not, after all, he was still carrying the identity of the young marquis of Lin'an Marquis Mansion who passed away early, and it was difficult.
Seeing that Shen Miao was in a daze again, Luo Ling waved in front of her and asked, "Little cousin?"
Shen Miao came back to her senses and smiled apologetically at Luo Ling: "I'm sorry cousin, I made the recipe for the pastry randomly, I was lucky to make such a basket at that time, and it was all eaten by cousin Tan, If you want me to do that again, I don’t know if I can do it.”
Jing Zhe widened his eyes behind Shen Miao, her own girl could lie to Young Master Biao seriously. Jing Zhe naturally knew if Shen Miao would make that pastry, Shen Miao silently came out with the recipe and made it herself, she still looked very skilled, why was she not willing to make a basket for Young Master Luo
Could it be that Master Biao offended his girl? Jing Zhe was puzzled.
Luo Ling also never expected that Shen Miao would refuse and was even more embarrassed and at a loss.
Shen Miao's demeanor was calm and there was no trace of guilt on her face. Since it is the cake of the royal family of Great Liang, the process is complicated. She made it once, but she did not have the patience to make it for others all day long. Luo Ling... Let the pastry chef in the kitchen make him something else.
They were talking, but they didn't want to be seen by another person under the far roof. The man was dressed in white, and the paper fan was swaying gently. He also looked like a gentleman. It was Gao Yang.
After Xie Jing walked, Gao Yang also followed Xie Jing Xing's instructions, saying that he wanted to take care of Luo Ling's wounds and lived in the Shen residence. It is convenient to watch Shen Miao’s movement all the time. It didn't matter after seeing it, one could see the lively appearance that Luo Ling and Shen Miao were talking about.
Gao Yang looked at Luo Ling with a bit of sympathy, then looked at Shen Miao, shook his head and sighed deeply.
"What are you sighing for?" A head suddenly stuck out from behind Gao Yang, almost frightening Gao Yang back a step, the man got out from behind Gao Yang. His brows were bright and heroic, who was it if it wasn't Luo Tan
“Doctor Gao,” Luo Tan asked, “What are you doing here?” She followed Gao Yang’s gaze, saw Shen Miao and Luo Ling sitting and talking, and then looked at Gao Yang. Gao Yang felt a little uneasy when he was stared at by Luo Tan's strange eyes, but saw Luo Tan suddenly say: "I see, so you like little cousin!"
Gao Yang was so shocked that he quickly stretched out his hand to cover Luo Tan's mouth, jokingly, Xie Jing Xing sent not only him but other secret guards in this Shen residence. If any of the broken-mouthed dark guards told Xie Jing Xing this, then he would not need to stay in Ming Qi any longer. Gao Yang looked at Luo Tan, who couldn't stop struggling in his hands, and felt a little helplessness in his heart. Luo Tan was just trying to make trouble for him, and he had been tricked more than once!
Luo Tan finally broke free from Gao Yang's hand, and probably realized that the voice was a little loud, so she lowered her voice, but her expression was still smug, as if she had grabbed a certain handle on Gao Yang, she said, "So you like little cousin, So you're jealous."
"Don't be smart." Gao Yang said, "I don't dare to think about Fifth Young Miss Shen."
Luo Tan curled her lips: "You have self-knowledge, my little cousin is so smart and good-looking, it's hard to find a girl with a lantern in Ding capital. You, a doctor, are still delusional, and you don't even look in the mirror."
The disdain in her tone deeply stabbed Gao Yang's heart, making Gao Yang really have the urge to immediately look for a mirror to see if he really was as unworthy as Luo Tan said.
Thinking of his Highness, Gao Yang sneered and nodded his chin in Luo Ling's direction: "I delusional, he is qualified?"
Luo Tan glanced at Luo Ling, sighed, and said, "Cousin Ling is very good, but unfortunately he is not a good friend of little cousin."
These words were a little unexpected to Gao Yang. He thought Luo Tan would wholeheartedly defend his cousin, so he asked, "Oh? Why do you say that?"
"Cousin is a person with ideas. Brother Ling's temperament is too gentle, but he can't spark any sparks. If you want to come here, younger cousin just treats Brother Ling as a brother." Luo Tan felt a little pity.
"Do you still know what a spark is?" Gao Yang was surprised and immediately asked, "Then tell me, who can spark sparks with your little cousin?"
Gao Yang was just casually teasing Luo Tan, but he never thought that Luo Tan really thought about it, and finally said, "Someone like Prince Rui."
Gao Yang was stunned.
"Prince Rui is good-looking, mysterious and unpredictable, and he is a man who values love and righteousness. He should be the only good man in this world. A person like my little cousin should be worthy of such a husband. But... I just thought about it. Just thinking about it." Luo Tan lowered her voice, but when she raised her head, she saw Gao Yang looking at her with a smile, and only then did she realize that she had talked too much with Gao Yang, and her relationship with Gao Yang wasn't that good. Luo Tan's expression changed in an instant, and she leaned into Gao Yang's ear and said, "Hey, the last time I went to Prince Rui's mansion, you got my handle. Today I know that you are in love with my little cousin, even if you get you. We all have each other's handle, and it is considered an even. In the future, you can't even threaten me with the matter of Prince Rui's mansion. Be careful, I will tell your little cousin about your sloppy guts, so that you can't lift your head in front of her for the rest of your life!" Luo Tan said viciously.
Gao Yang was really ironic, in fact, compared to Shen Miao, what he was more afraid of was Xie Jing Xing. However, seeing Luo Tan's self-conscious appearance, her brows and eyes were full of clever cunning, and she suddenly became interested. He leaned closer and said, "Okay, then let's get hold of each other, how about that?"
He was born as graceful as a jade son, and when he approached to speak, he was very handsome. Luo Tan is a person who likes good-looking things, so she feels a little guilty for some reason. She slapped Gao Yang to the side with a slap, she was a martial artist, and she almost vomited blood when she slapped Gao Yang.
Luo Tan turned around and left, angrily saying, "Dengzizi!"
Gao Yang touched his chin, but smiled slowly.
These trivial matters in Shen's residence did not attract Shen Miao's attention and in her eyes they were all insignificant and boring things, until the next day, something happened in Shen's residence which was rather interesting.
Shen Yue ran away.
