It was just that Chen Rou Qiu did not know about all these.
Naturally Chen Rou Qiu did not know that Chang Zai Qing's methods were superb and every time she would not take the initiative to look for Shen Wan, it was always Shen Wan who took the initiative to look for Chang Zai Qing. And when both of them were together, they were separated far apart and looked very courteous. It was just a casual conversation and even if others saw it, they would not think much about it, so why would they go and remind Chen Rou Qiu?
On Chen Rou Qiu's side, there was another unimaginable matter, which was that the Third Young Lady of the Shen residence, Shen Dong Ling, suddenly had a close relationship with Shen Yue.
Even though there were only these two young ladies in the Shen residence, Shen Yue was like Chen Rou Qiu in her bones and looked down on people with a lower status than her, not to mention a Shu daughter that crawled out from a YiNiang's womb. After so many years, there was no interaction and inexplicably they became close sisters. It was indeed suspicious.
In Cai Yun Yuan in the Shen residence, Shen Dong Ling was pushing the pastries in front of Shen Yue and smiled, "This is the new pastries that the kitchen made. Milk and osmanthus were added. Second Older Sister should also try it."
Shen Yue glanced at the pastries but did not reach out to take it. Instead she sighed somewhat irritatedly, "How would I have the mood to eat now? I am already full from anger."
Shen Dong Ling looked at her and said worriedly, "Second Older Sister is still distressed about your own marriage?"
"You do not know." Shen Yue said in a bad mood, "Yesterday I went to the residence of the Minister of Land and my Mother was extremely satisfied with that Gentleman Wang. If I guessed correctly, she always had the idea of marrying me to Gentleman Wang. Now I am unable to eat and am so anxious that my head hurts."
"Minister of Land?" Shen Dong Ling said curiously, "Is it that gentleman called Wang Bi?"
"You actually know about it?" Shen Yue looked at her suspiciously.
"Once heard Father talk about it." Shen Dong Ling smiled shyly.
Shen Gui was also an official in the court and it was possible that he knew about the Wang family's matters. Shen Yue said, "Correct. It is him."
"One heard that Gentleman Wang is very knowledgeable and now he has entered officialdom. Even though it is not considered a meteoric rise, but it is only a matter of time before he stands out. Second Older Sister, this is a good thing. Why are you not willing? "Shen Dong Ling asked.
"No matter how much you praise him, I don't like it." Shen Yue said in a bad mood, "If I want to marry, I must marry a person who is born with unlimited glory. What is he?"
Hearing this, Shen Dong Ling probed, "Could it be … Second Sister has someone she likes?"
Shen Yue was surprised for a moment before covering it up, "No. What nonsense are you talking about?"
Shen Dong Ling smiled apologetically, "I thought that Young Master Wang was a good person. If Second Sister didn't like it, was it because she already had someone she liked, so she didn't like anyone else? It was I who misunderstood Second Sister. Second Sister, please don't be angry with me. "
Shen Yue waved her hands but her eyes were somewhat absent-minded. She thought of Fu Xiu Yi and her heart could not help but ache. Chen Rou Qiu had told her that Fu Xiu Yi wanted to marry someone who could help him. She was just a daughter of an ordinary civil official, so Fu Xiu Yi would not marry her. But Shen Yue still could not help but think that if there was a day when Fu Xiu Yi fell in love with her, would he not care about those worldly possessions and treat her soberly? She was so beautiful and intelligent, with the reputation of a talented female throughout the Ding capital, naturally she would marry a man of unparalleled elegance. In Ming Qi, only Fu Xiu Yi was able to enter her eyes.
She had waited for Fu Xiu Yi for so long, but now all her efforts were in vain and she had to marry someone else? Shen Yue was extremely unreconciled.
Shen Yue heard Shen Dong Ling speaking softly, "Why does Second Sister not try? Actually Gentleman Wang is not as bad as you think. After all the Wang family and the Shen family are well-matched in terms of social status. Speaking of which, Gentleman Wang himself is also a good person. If Second Sister marries over, one would not suffer grievances and live a stable life. Isn't that good? "
The more she said it, the more annoyed Shen Yue was. What Shen Yue wanted was not stability but glory. Only Fu Xiu Yi could give her the envious eyes of everyone.
"Second Sister better not think too much. This kind of blessing is something that some people cannot beg for, like me." Shen Dong Ling said, "If it was me standing in Second Sister's position and knowing about this matter, one would definitely not reject it. Instead one would feel very happy. As a female in this world, do not one seek stability? "
Shen Yue was initially somewhat impatient listening but when she heard the last part, she could not help but pause. A strange feeling slowly floated in her heart and she could not help but look at Shen Dong Ling. Shen Dong Ling's chin was pointed and it made her look especially weak, as if she would not resist anything. There was a look of trust between her brows, as if she really treated Shen Yue as a sister who treated her wholeheartedly.
She seemed to be an extremely easy person to manipulate.
A thought slowly floated in Shen Yue's heart.
