"Regret." Xie Jing Xing's words were filled with regret.
Shen Miao smiled.
…
There were new things happening in the Ding capital every day but the new things that happened every day would quickly cover up the new things that happened a few days ago. For example the lawsuit between the Shen and Chen family a few days ago. Everyone treated it as a joke and after seeing it, they would forget about it. As for the Shen residence, it was the same. The servants still did what they needed to do and the only difference was that Qiu Shui Yuan had changed to a new Master and the new Master had gained Shen Wan's favour, almost catching up to Third Shen Furen who had just entered the household.
Compared to Chen Rou Qiu, Cang Zai Qing was better at building relationships with the surrounding people. Most likely it was because she did not have Chen Rou Qiu's air of self-righteousness. She was hearty and delicate and the way she treated others made others feel comfortable. Not only did Shen Wan like her, even Shen Gui and Old Shen Furen also felt that she was not bad and felt that it was a wise decision for Shen Wan to divorce Chen Rou Qiu.
Shen Wan treated Cang Zai Qing well and Old Shen Furen specially found an eminent monk to take a look, saying that the child in Cang Zai Qing's stomach was definitely a male. Old Shen Furen's last bit of nitpicking towards Cang Zai Qing's birth was gone. The most urgent matter in the Shen residence was to quickly add a male child, otherwise outsiders would laugh at the Shen residence for having no descendants.
Shen Wan was always smiling everyday. Cang Zai Qing gave him advice and was able to properly manage the matters in the residence, as if she was very familiar with it. He was happy to be relaxed. To be able to write poetry and also manage the family business, there was no male that would not like such a virtuous wife.
On this day, Cang Zai Qing and Shen Wan were talking in the courtyard. Cang Zai Qing was wrapped in a thick fur coat and there was a brazier by her feet and a heater in her hands. Because he was afraid that she would catch a cold, Shen Wan let the surrounding maids do their best to serve her.
Cang Zai Qing said, "Master is somewhat free today."
Shen Wan pulled her hand to his and smiled, "Not only today. These days there are no matters in court and one can accompany you and the child more."
"That is really good." Cang Zai Qing smiled, "The child can also get closer to Father."
These words made Shen Wan extremely happy. He hugged Chang Zai Qing in his embrace and sighed, "Now what I hope in my heart is nothing more than for you to give birth to a child, then all these things that I have done would not be in vain."
Chen Rou Qiu seemed to have understood something and seeing that Shen Wan's brows did not relax, she asked, "Is Master still worried about Fifth Shen Young Lady's matter a few days ago?"
To let Shen Miao marry to Prince Zhou, or to let Shen Miao and Prince Zhou have a relationship, no matter which one it was, until now there was no news at all. It seemed that things weren't going well. Even though Cang Zai Qing did not know why Shen Wan wanted so much, she knew that this matter was definitely related to Shen Wan's career.
Shen Wan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "These days Shen Xin has been watching Shen Miao very well and Shen Miao did not even leave the residence, thus one could not find an opportunity. It's like an iron bucket, it's hard to make a move. "As he spoke, he seemed to be disappointed," This can't go on. "
Cang Zai Qing's eyes turned and smiled, "What is so difficult about this? If Fifth Shen Young Lady does not go out, then let Fifth Shen Young Lady take the initiative to go out. To tell the truth, if Fifth Shen Young Lady were to go out, General Shen would inevitably let her bring a group of guards. General Shen is after all from the military and the people around him are all experts. If one really wanted to make a move, one might not succeed in one shot. It is better to let Fifth Shen Young Lady take the initiative to go out and moreover sneak out so that General Shen would not find out. This way it would be much easier. "
Shen Wan's eyes flashed and after thinking for a moment, he still shook his head, "Shen Miao usually does not have any secrets so it would be difficult to coax her out." Even Shen Miao had a good relationship with a Young Lady called Feng An Ning, and these days she was staying in the Feng residence and if Shen Miao were to come out in Feng An Ning's name, Shen Miao would definitely be alert.
