862 Getting Married (3)
Shen Miao lowered her eyes and heard Luo Xueyan say, “But my daughter will never need to compromise. If he brings back another woman, you can be jealous and make a fuss with him. All that nonsense about a virtuous wife being magnanimous is just nonsense. If that day comes, you don’t have to treat him as your husband in your heart. If you want a divorce, Father and Mother will help you.”
Shen Miao looked at Luo Xueyan in surprise at first, then she laughed in her heart. That’s right, the Luo family did not have concubines. The environment Luo Xueyan lived in since she was young made her believe that there should only be two in a marriage. Luo Xueyan’s words would probably shock the world, but Shen Miao felt very warm.
Luo Xueyan always cared about Shen Miao’s feelings and would not let her feel aggrieved. As for what others thought, it had nothing to do with her.
Thinking about how Consort Dong, Fu Xiuyi’s biological mother, always asked her to be virtuous and magnanimous and take the initiative to seek a secondary consort for Fu Xiuyi not long after she got married, the contrast was really stark.
Luo Xueyan suddenly took out a small booklet from her sleeve and said, “Jiaojiao, this… Take this. After the wedding is over, find some time to read it.”
Shen Miao was puzzled. She took it and asked casually, “What is this?”
Luo Xueyan blushed and stammered, “You need to understand something.” Seeing that Shen Miao was about to open it, she quickly grabbed Shen Miao’s hand and said, “Don’t read it now! Later… later when you’re alone.”
Shen Miao nodded. Just as she was about to ask a few questions, she saw Luo Xueyan’s unnatural expression and suddenly understood.
It was a booklet filled with sexual techniques. She had never read such a thing before. When she got married in her previous life, the entire Shen family was in a mess, and she even forgot to learn about it. Later, on the wedding night, Fu Xiuyi did not consummate the marriage with her.
Everytime Fu Xiuyi did it with her, he always rushed it. Although Shen Miao had never read it, she had heard that on the wedding night, the newlyweds would usually read it together.
Just as Luo Xueyan and Shen Miao were feeling a little awkward, footsteps came from outside. Luo Tan pulled Feng Anning in. Seeing that Luo Xueyan was also here, she said, “Aunt, we’re here to send some gifts to Little Cousin!”
Luo Xueyan was embarrassed. Seeing that the two of them were here, she immediately smiled and said, “Then you can talk first. I’ll go out for a while before coming back.”
After Luo Xueyan left, Luo Tan walked around Shen Miao in circles and exclaimed, “Cousin Miao, you’re really too beautiful today! You’re even better than a fairy!”
“That’s right.” Feng Anning echoed, “She’s the most beautiful bride I’ve seen.” Ever since she was given a cold shoulder by Shen Qiu, Feng Anning had come less often. However, this time, when Shen Miao got married, although she was afraid of Shen Qiu, she still mustered her courage to come.
“I heard that Miss Mei made you a bridesmaid.” Feng Anning said, “No wonder you are so beautiful. I can’t recognize you.”
“Little Cousin is good-looking to begin with.” Luo Tan smiled and took out a box from behind her. “This is my gift to you!”
Shen Miao opened the box. It was something that looked like a metal lump, but she did not know what it was. Before Shen Miao could ask, Feng Anning was the first to speak and ask, “What’s this? Isn’t it too shabby for you to give this to Shen Miao?”
