529 Marriage (6)

…

The brush in Shen Yue’s hand suddenly paused, and a long ink mark instantly appeared on the unfinished painting. However, she did not take it to heart at all. Instead, she asked the maid in front of her angrily.

“What did you say? Mother is going to choose a husband for me?”

“Second Miss.” The maid lowered her head and said carefully, “Madam has already selected a few families from the list and sent someone to send an invitation. She is planning to bring you to visit them in a few days.”

“Bastard!” Shen Yue slammed the brush on the desk in exasperation. No one knew who she was scolding, but her gentle and elegant aura was all gone. The surrounding maids did not even dare to breathe loudly.

Shen Yue looked frustrated.

She was already 18 years old. In the capital, it was the age where girls should get married. Even if she was not married, she should be engaged. However, she was still unmarried. She was a talented girl and was good-looking. She was gentle and smart, and there were countless men who liked her. However, she only wanted to marry one person, and that was Fu Xiuyi.

Prince Ding, Fu Xiuyi, was the youngest among the princes and the one who had yet to marry a consort. Back then, Shen Miao fell in love with Fu Xiuyi at first sight and was bewitched by his charm. Very few knew that Shen Yue was the same. Perhaps such a man was born to dazzle and infatuate women. He did not have the strange temper of a prince. He was young and handsome, and he was probably the most noble man in Ming Qi other than the emperor. Shen Yue had always felt that only she was worthy of Fu Xiuyi. Therefore, when Shen Miao shamelessly revealed that she liked Fu Xiuyi to the public, Shen Yue felt that Shen Miao was humiliating her sweetheart.

Fortunately, Fu Xiuyi treated Shen Miao extremely coldly. Now, Shen Miao and Fu Xiuyi had nothing to do with each other, which made Shen Yue feel relieved. Back then, she eavesdropped on Shen Wan and Shen Gui’s conversation where they said that in order to obtain Shen Xin’s military power, it was possible for Fu Xiuyi to marry Shen Miao. She had been uneasy for a long time, wishing that Shen Miao did not exist in the world. Fortunately, Shen Miao gave up later.

Now that Shen Miao was gone, why were her parents getting in her way?

“I’m going to tell my mother that I’m not getting married! I’m not getting married!” Shen Yue stood up and swept everything off the desk. The surrounding maids quickly knelt on the ground, but no one dared to persuade her.

On the other side, someone in Rosy Cloud Garden also heard the commotion.

Compared to two years ago, Rosy Cloud Garden was much more deserted. Ever since Ren Wanyun died and Shen Gui became infertile, Old Madam Shen was furious and did not allow Shen Gui to bring back any more random women. Shen Gui knew that he would never be able to have a child with a woman again in his life. When he returned to the mansion and looked at the empty courtyard, he felt annoyed, so he simply stayed at the brothel every day. Other than the servants, there were only Concubine Wan and Shen Dongling left in Rosy Cloud Garden.

Shen Gui once had two sons. Unfortunately, now, he only had an illegitimate daughter. No matter what, Shen Dongling was the only child of Shen Gui now, so the servants treated Shen Dongling and Concubine Wan with respect.

“What’s going on outside?” Concubine Wan, who was doing needlework, looked up. She had been doing well for the past two years and looked much plumper than before.

The maid at the door said, “Concubine, Second Miss is throwing a tantrum because Third Madam wants to choose a husband for her. She’s rushing towards the Autumn Water Garden.”

Concubine Wan laughed out loud and shook her head. “Second Miss is really pampered. She even gets angry about this.” She suddenly thought of something and her eyes darkened. “She really doesn’t know how lucky she is.”

Shen Dongling was also a daughter of the Shen family and was about the same age as Shen Yue. However, Old Madam Shen did not like the daughter of a concubine, and Shen Gui did not care about the matters at home at all. Shen Dongling’s status was not high. After so long, very few people came to propose marriage. Even if there were people who came to propose marriage, they were all from strange families. It was obvious that they were not good people.

As she was thinking, she saw Shen Dongling stand up from behind the screen. Shen Dongling had grown a lot. She was slender and had sharp eyebrows, looking very much like Concubine Wan.

“Where are you going?” Concubine Wan asked casually.

Shen Dongling said, “Mother, aren’t you worried about my marriage?”

Concubine Wan was stunned, not knowing what she meant.

“I’ve waited for two years. Now, this opportunity has come,” Shen Dongling said.
