The Jing family's people finally arrived at the Ding capital after a few days.
As a small family from Suzhou, the Jing family had learned the face of a vile person who had gained power and power. When the Jing family's husband and wife knew about Jing Chu Chu and Shen Yuan's matter, they first cried bitterly and lamented that their daughter's life was bitter. Following that they clamored to report to the authorities to make Shen Yuan pay the price, and did not even agree to the engagement. On the surface it looked like so, but those with discerning eyes knew that the Jing family's husband and wife were just pretending to be obedient after getting the advantage, and wanted to act like it was Shen Yuan who wanted to marry Jing Chu Chu.
Old Shen Furen had been unreasonable in the residence for so many years and the paternal family's tyrannical behaviour was exactly the same as her. After a few rounds of competition, she was actually at a disadvantage. Since she agreed to marry Jing Chu Chu in an eight carrier sedan, she had to compensate with a large amount of betrothal gifts.
Old Shen Furen suffered in silence and was unable to voice out her bitterness. Every day when she faced the Jing couple's greedy faces, she was so angry that her mouth was crooked and her eyes slanted, almost having a stroke. In a fit of anger, he simply hid in Rong Jing Tang and refused to see anyone.
The Jing family obtained a chicken feather as a command arrow and in just a few days, all the commoners in the entire Ding capital knew that Shen Yuan was going to marry Jing Chu Chu from SuZhou. The commoners did not know the secret of the Shen family's banquet and the rumours outside were that Shen Yuan was in love with Jing Chu Chu's gentleness and beauty and treated her sincerely.
The Jing family tried their best to portray Jing Chu Chu as a beautiful female that could move one's heart. One did not know how others would see it, but one think that Shen Yuan was extremely depressed.
In the Minister's residence, Sun Cai Nan looked at the invitation in his hand, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the wastepaper basket.
"Shen Yuan, that bastard!" he said hatefully.
It was not easy to meet a female that he liked. He had seen a lot of females in the Ding capital and Jing Chu Chu who came from SuZhou was especially different. The females that he fancied would never fail and in addition this time he was playful and spent a lot of effort on Jing Chu Chu. He did not expect that at the end Shen Yuan would take advantage of her.
The manservant said cautiously, "Miss Jing and Second Young Master Shen had a misunderstanding and had no choice but to do so."
No matter what the commoners said, the aristocratic families knew exactly what was going on. Sun Cai Nan had long heard about everything that happened in the Shen family banquet from the mouths of others. His face sunk, "Jing Chu Chu that slut took this Lord's things and was playing with this Lord."
Sun Cai Nan was very unhappy in his heart as he had seen many females like Jing Chu Chu. As long as they were given money and benefits, they could be easily won over. One fear that the matter of the Shen residence's family banquet was also related to Jing Chu Chu. That woman kept his things on one hand, but at the same time, she was planning to marry into the Shen family? To Sun Cai Nan, being played by a woman was the most shameful thing.
"But what do you plan to do now?" The manservant asked, "Are you going to accept Miss Jing's invitation or not?"
Sun Cai Nan lowered his head and looked at the invitation in his hand. The invitation was especially fragrant, like the fragrance of a girl. Just like Jing Chu Chu's docile and harmless appearance, there was always a restless heart hidden within. Even though she was about to marry someone else, she still came to tease him one last time.
"Of course." Sun Cai Nan laughed, "This young master has given her so much money, but I haven't slept with her yet. He was already very dissatisfied that Shen Yuan had beaten him to it. How can I not sleep with him at least once? "He glared at the manservant." Go, reply to the invitation. "
…
These days Shen Yuan was not in the residence and no matter how mischievous the Jing family was, he rarely appeared. But it was hard on Chen Rou Qiu. On one side she had to deal with Old Shen Furen's anger and at the same time satisfy the Jing family's insatiable appetite. The money in the public purse was getting lesser and lesser, only going out and not coming in, making one worried.
"Why is Furen so worried these few days?" Shen Wan returned from court and asked when he saw the situation.
