616 Marriage Exchange (3)

In the Shen mansion, Shen Yue had already dressed up, but she chased everyone out, leaving Shen Dongling alone.

If one looked carefully, they would see that Shen Dongling had also dressed up meticulously. Shen Dongling was a natural beauty, but she usually did not go out, so she rarely dressed up well. Today, she was dressed like a new bride, making her look even more beautiful. However, Shen Yue was not in the mood to admire or be jealous. When she saw Shen Dongling, she said, “Hurry up and change your clothes with me!”

The maids and Chen Ruoqiu had already left. Over the past few days, on the surface, Shen Yue looked like she was gradually accepting this marriage, but in fact, she was secretly planning with Shen Dongling how to carry out this marriage exchange without a hitch. The more she interacted with Shen Dongling, the more Shen Yue felt that Shen Dongling was very gullible. She was even stupider than Shen Miao in the past.

As Shen Dongling hurriedly changed into her clothes, she whispered, “Second Sister, I’m very afraid.”

“Don’t be afraid.” Shen Yue was afraid that Shen Dongling would back off at this critical moment. She comforted her and said, “Don’t worry, I’ll explain to my parents tomorrow that I’m the one who forced you to do it. You won’t be blamed at all. After today, you’ll be the Young Madam of a powerful family. No one will dare to look down on you.”

Shen Yue used the title of the Young Madam to tempt Shen Dongling. As expected, when she saw that Shen Dongling’s fear had subsided a little and her face was red, she couldn’t help but snort in disdain. If not for the fact that she had no choice, she wouldn’t want Shen Dongling to live such a good life for no reason.

As soon as Shen Dongling put on her clothes, they heard the sound of someone walking outside. Shen Yue quickly hid behind the screen in the room, and Shen Dongling quickly covered her head with the veil. Shen Yue’s maid walked in from outside to help the bride out.

Chen Ruoqiu wanted to say a few words to Shen Yue, but Shen Yue walked straight into the sedan with the help of a maid without even looking at her. Seeing this, Chen Ruoqiu felt a little sad and thought that Shen Yue was still blaming her for forcing her to marry, but there was nothing she could do.

The sedan chair was about to be carried to the Minister Counsellor’s Mansion. Chen Ruoqiu was about to follow the wedding procession to the Minister Counsellor’s Mansion when she saw Chang Zaiqing walking over. Perhaps to coordinate with the festival atmosphere, Chang Zaiqing was wearing a light peach-colored embroidered dress. Because she always wore green colors, it was rare to see her in a bright dress, making her look refreshingly charming. Chang Zaiqing smiled and said, “I hope Second Miss will be used to life in a new family.”

When Chen Ruoqiu saw Chang Zaiqing, she remembered that she had not seen her for a long time. Ever since she spoke to Chang Zaiqing last time, she did not know what Chang Zaiqing was busy with. She was busy with Shen Yue’s marriage, so she did not go over to talk to Chang Zaiqing. At this moment, seeing that Chang Zaiqing’s face was glowing, she smiled and said, “Sister Chang, have you been going to see Shen Qiu these days?”

Chang Zaiqing smiled and shook her head, saying, “Not a lot. First Madam and General Shen are both very busy, so I don’t want to disturb them.”

Chen Ruoqiu was certain that Chang Zaiqing was lying and thought that she was just being shy, so she patted her hand and said, “Sister Chang, you’re so likable. No matter what, they will take time out to talk to you.” Chen Ruoqiu thought that after Shen Yue’s matter was over, she had to ask Chang Zaiqing how things were going. Shen Yue had no choice but to marry Wang Bi. Although the Wang family was not bad, at the thought that her daughter could not marry the person she liked in the end and she even had to fall out with her daughter because of this, Chen Ruoqiu felt suffocated. On the other hand, Shen Miao was doing better and better everyday in the capital. A few days ago, she thought that Shen Miao would definitely end up badly after being kidnapped, but Shen Miao came back unscathed. If Shen Miao wanted to marry a prince, it was quite possible. At the thought that what her daughter wanted could be easily obtained by Shen Miao, Chen Ruoqiu felt very indignant. Thinking that a vulgar woman like Luo Xueyan could actually have an excellent son and a daughter, Chen Ruoqiu wanted to ruin her.
