Chapter 180 Isn’t it boring?
Qin Xuerong couldn't help but ask, "But Wang Xiao is uneducated and unskilled. He has already had several concubines before he even got married. How can he be a good match?"
Shen Jingchuan said impatiently, "Was it me who caused Zhen Jie to fall into the water at that time? Although Wang Xiao was a bit philandering, he had a kind character. Plus, with Master Wang and Madam Wang in charge, they would never let Zhen Jie be bullied! What's more, Zhen Jie's reputation is now ruined. Do you think she can find a family as good as the Wang family in the future?"
This one sentence made Qin Xuerong almost cry blood, and her teeth were almost broken.
Yes, what Shen Jingchuan said was cold and ruthless, but she couldn't deny that from an objective and realistic point of view, Zhen Jie'er had abandoned the Wang family, and it would be difficult for her to find a good marriage in the future.
Tears fell drop by drop before Qin Xuerong wanted to say something else.
There was a knock on the door, and Shen Jingchuan's attendant whispered outside: "Master, Aunt Wu sent someone to tell us that the fourth young master seems to have an allergy and has a rash. We want to invite a doctor to come to the house to take a look."
Upon hearing this, Shen Jingchuan immediately stood up and said to Qin Xuerong, "I'll go over and take a look. Think about it carefully. If you don't want Zhen Jie'er to apologize to the Wang family, I, as a father, won't force her. But she must stay in her room and not show up!"
After saying this, Shen Jingchuan put on his clothes and left without looking back.
Qin Xuerong took two steps to catch up with him, but Shen Jingchuan was walking so fast that he showed no intention of turning back.
"Madam...the master has left..." Cuizhu spoke cautiously at the side.
Qin Xuerong's eyes turned red with anger, and her pretty face became even more ferocious: "Aunt Wu, you bitch!"
Cuizhu couldn't help but say, "Mrs. Han is too honest. She is no match for Mrs. Wu. Now that Madam is busy with the affairs of the mansion, she can't get away, and that vixen has seduced the Master."
Qin Xuerong pursed her lips tightly, her eyes full of unwillingness.
Thinking back to the past, she was a concubine, living under Zhao Derong, but the master could still miss her. She didn't expect that after enduring so many years and suffering so many grievances, she finally got the position of mistress, but now she has to endure such humiliation!
Nanny Wang comforted him, "It's hard to have both in this world. The master must have feelings for the lady, but there have been a lot of troubles recently."
Qin Xuerong still couldn't let it go, and the depression in her heart was about to overflow.
Nanny Wang said again: "If Madam is unwilling to accept this, why not..."
Qin Xuerong turned to look at her: "Not as good as what?"
Nanny Wang hesitated for a moment and said slowly, "There hasn't been a new person in the mansion for a long time. The master is not the kind of person who covets women, but he does care about Aunt Wu."
Qin Xuerong's lips were almost pressed into a straight line, and she remained silent for a long while.
Nanny Wang and Cuizhu didn't dare to speak again. After a while, Qin Xuerong said, "Let's talk about this later."

After dealing with a few restless people and with the support of Shen Jingchuan, things in the kitchen went quite smoothly.
On this day, Shen Shuyi, Fugui and several chefs had just finished discussing the menu when Feicui came in from outside.
"You guys can leave first. Once the dishes are decided, please send a list of the dishes and drinks you need to buy over the next two days."
Shen Shuyi was straightforward and didn't say a word of nonsense.
"Yes, Second Miss." Fugui and the others did not dare to have any other thoughts now. After all, "old people" like Mrs. Chen were now sold out.
After they left the yard, Feicui whispered, "Miss, the Sixth Young Master sent a servant over here, saying he wants the last few volumes of the storybook for you."
"Let him in."
Soon, the servant who usually followed Shen Jinglin knelt in front of Shen Shuyi: "Your servant Wendong greets the Second Young Lady."
Shen Shuyi lowered her eyes and looked at the servant in front of her. She had some impression of this servant. He was smart, likable and playful, and he could always make Shen Jinglin especially happy.
"How is Brother Lin doing these days?" Shen Shuyi asked in a gentle voice.
Wen Dong immediately said, "Thanks to the gifts from the Second Miss, the Sixth Young Master finally feels less bored these days. Otherwise, I really don't know how I would have gotten through the days."
Shen Shuyi asked, "Did Brother Lin finish reading the book so quickly?"
"Miss Second, you don't know that the Sixth Young Master has been confined to his room. He has nothing to do except fiddling with the things you sent him. Naturally, he can only read these storybooks, so he reads very quickly." Wen Dong's face was full of sadness, as if the Sixth Young Master was having a hard time.
Shen Shuyi found it interesting and said with a smile: "How can you just play? Have you done your homework? And you memorized a few more poems."
"Second Miss, it's not that the Sixth Young Master doesn't want to learn. It's just that the poem is obscure and the Sixth Young Master is not good at it. He spent a lot of time and effort, but now he can only recite one poem with difficulty."
Upon hearing this, Shen Shuyi knew that Shen Jinglin didn't take what she said seriously at all.
He hadn't even memorized a single poem, but he dared to send someone to ask for the sequel to the storybook, which clearly showed that he didn't take her seriously.
How does this work?
"Go back and tell Lin Ge'er that he has to memorize at least three poems before he can get the next volume of the storybook." Shen Shuyi said in a calm voice.
Wen Dong burst into tears: "Second Miss, you are making things difficult for me. Please wake up. The Sixth Young Master is urging me..."
Shen Shuyi curled her lips and said gently, "Go tell Lin Ge'er that I will give him a copy for every three poems he memorizes. If he can memorize ten, I will ask my father to release him from his house arrest."
Wen Dong's eyes turned and he secretly looked at Shen Shuyi's expression.
The woman had an extremely beautiful face, with jade-colored skin that was as smooth as snow and as soft as a baby's. It was a rare good color. But although her expression was gentle, there was a chill and cold air between her eyebrows that made people dare not act rashly.
Seeing that there was no room for negotiation, Wen Dong said angrily, "Yes."
After Wen Dong left, Feicui couldn't help but ask, "Miss, why are we helping the Sixth Young Master so much?"
Feicui really didn't understand. The lady was not kind to the young lady, and the Sixth Young Master was spoiled and arrogant, needless to say. Now he had finally learned a lesson and was put in solitary confinement, so why should she help plead for him to be released?
Knowing that Feicui's mind was the simplest, Shen Shuyi was willing to say a few more words, but at the same time, she couldn't explain too much, for fear that she would be tricked.
"Grandmother's birthday party is coming soon. It would be better if Brother Lin is released early, so as to avoid any trouble when the party is approaching."
Feicui was still confused, Shen Shuyi smiled, stood up and said: "Think about it more yourself."
"Yes."
Shen Shuyi said no more, her almond-shaped eyes were clear.
Old Madam Shen’s birthday banquet is approaching, and she has to get Shen Jinglin out as soon as possible. After all, only when he comes out can the trouble be solved. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be boring to stay in the yard all the time?
