Luo Tong ignored the stunned looks of the Shen family and went to stand by Shen Ping , her hatred for him was a different thing and her position as an official wife was another.
An hour later Chen Chu Chu came with Shen Yu, she has changed her vibrant red dress to a dull pink one , it wasn't her fault , for so many years she enjoyed the status of a secondary wife thus all her clothes from her time as a serving concubine were old and worn down and in such a haste there was no way anyone will be able to get a new pair skirt and blouse .
Behind Chen Chu Chu was Shen Yu , just like Chen Chu Chu; her status too have suffered greatly .From a secondary wife daughter to a lowly concubine daughter . Thus, Shen Yu too needed a change of clothes and since she never once wore dresses that were appropriate for a concubine daughter therefore; Shen Yu had to borrow one of Shen Miao's clothing making it difficult for her to keep her perfect white lotus expression .
ChenShen Qin made her skin even thicker and kept cajoling the old matriarch, gifts? Don't make her laugh , Wang De had even sold off her dowry to repay his debts, from where will she get money to buy gifts to please this old lady? nor has she forgotten how stingy The Shen family old matriarch was with her , just because she was a daughter . If not for Chen Chu Chu brain washing Shen Ping every night , claiming that Shen Qin had exchanged her good luck for her father, or that Shen Qin was lucky for Shen Ping, forget about an adopted daughter status, she wouldn't even get a full meal!Shen Qin might have stayed away from the Shen family with her mother a few years but she was very clear about the white eye wolf nature of these blood relations . Every person was greedy for their own benefit , so how could she be willing to spend some money to bring gifts back to them ? Hasn't she already given her father all her good luck? Why should she give them more? If anythi
" Alright ; Alright, Qiqi tell mother how long will you be staying?" Chen Chu Chu was really happy after all her daughter came back home after seven years! How can she not be happy? Her face was glowing so much that no one could detect her unhappiness of demoted as a concubine." Mother I - this daughter will be staying for a little after all returning back with a child in my womb will be troublesome " blushing Shen Qin answered .Shen Xinyi hand paused a little but it only paused for a second and she returned to her normal behaviour . Her deep gaze fixed on the flat abdomen of Shen Qin ; a deep hidden memory slowly surfaced in her mind .' Imperial Aunt '' Imperial Aunt ; RuiRui wants to eat snowcake '' Imperial Aunt ; RuiRui likes that dress can you give it to me '' Sister Heng , don't worry I will definitely send this letter to scholar Zhai '' Sister Heng ; forgive me I - I fell in love with s
Brother " Wang Lin softly called her brother , she wanted to make him understand their situation but before she could speak, Cai shi , her brother's concubine rushed out ." Lord, forgive this lowly concubine , its all my fault , that madam is so furious and lost her temper at my lord " Cai shi wasn't foolish or naive , she has successfully climbed in Wang De 's bed right under Shen Qin 's nose , with her wits alone she was capable enough to deal with Shen Qin . But she never thought that there will be a day when Wang De will loose all his fortune . Actually; Cai shi was a servant working in the Wang family and didn't knew that the huge manor belonged to Shen Qin not Wang De ; only after she gave up her innocence to Wang De did she realized her situation, but things had already went south for her . She already offended Shen Qin by sleeping with her good for nothing husband; therefore Cai shi could only please Wang De so that the latter fulfills her wishes but who would have th
" Ahem" a loud cough rang out in the room , startling both Feng Tian Ming and Shen Xinyi . Shen Xinyi who was hugging Feng Tian Ming was shocked silly when she found that her mother was in her room taking in the entire scene of her daughter hugging a man in the middle of the night. Shen Xinyi started and pushed Feng Tian Ming away , making the latter fall down with an ' ouch ' on the floor ." So S-sorry " knowing that it was impossible for Feng Tian Ming to sit on his wheelchair, on his own , Shen Xinyi hurried to help him up . " Its okay " Feng Tian Ming didn't dare to loose his temper on Shen Xinyi even without her mother in picture; now with his mother in law standing in front of him ; he didn't dare to even tease his little wife . " Your highness, If I may , can I ask you what're you doing here ?" Madam Luo tone was neither warm nor cold , at the most it was polite , making Feng Tian Ming throw a furitive glance at Shen Xinyi who was standing
Shen Ping frowned indeed he has never thought about this matter , in his eyes from the day he married Luo Tong , everything related to her became a chess piece to him . And it his thoughts became even more dark , when the old Taoist priest deduced that Shen Yu was the star of the phenoixe . He believed that whatever he was doing it was for the sake of the Shen Family ." She is your elder sister , as her younger sister its all good and well , if you help her out from time to time . Why are you haggling at every bit and piece ?"spoke Shen Ping a bit lost for words , apart from condemning Shen Xinyi for acting unfilial he cannot scold her for anything but the thing was while it was okay for him and Chen Chu Chu, Shen Xinyi has no obligations for Shen Qin or Shen Yu ." So father wants to say that as long as she is my elder sister , I should shut up and do everything according to her will ?" Shen Xinyi sneered coldly " father is really good ! from Father's words it wouldn't
Bang !Shen Qin who received the message from her father turned sullen at once , infact she wasn't willing to let that little bitch have a courtyard of her own either but ever since she refused Madam Cui, her husband has been visiting that bitch's bed chambers everyday! How dare he! This was her home ! He was living and eating what she was providing him , yet he dared to ignore her like this? Shen Qin was pregnant and her emotions were unstable , her physician has already said that she needed love and care from the family but where was the love? where was the care??Her husband didn't care about her neither did that little hussy who was once at her back and call ! ." Mother ! Look at Second sister , is she not worried that I will get upset and miscarry? Or does she want me to have a miscarriage? How can she upset me like this !"Shen Qin was spoiled rotten by Chen Chu Chu not only because she was her eldest child but also because Chen Chu C
While Shen Yu and Shen Qin were busy ; Shen Xinyi didn't had it easy either . She was currently holding her little mochi and shaking him." Its not awu ! You're not a dog , stop acting like one " Shen Xinyi was really having a headache , she didn't know from where the little fox learned to howl like a little pup ; everytime it opened his mouth ; it will go ' Awu ' ." Awu???" cocking his head , little mochi blinked his large watery amber eyes at his master , what does master means? Isn't he cute like this ?" Not awu ! stop ' awuing ' , howl or growl like a dragon ! what will your daddy say , when he hear you acting like a little mutt !" said Shen Xinyi angrily .From where did this little fox learned to howl like a pup ? If she were to find out who was behind this disgrace she will kick that person off to moon ! She doesn't even dare to think what will happen if the Lord of the dragon were to see his son like this, will he kill her or will he turn her
You !" Shen Qin felt her face burn with humiliation, yes, she was the oldest and the first one to get married . When She was young her father wanted her to become a secondary wife of a forty year old official , who already had countless concubines . Shen Qin has seen her mother's struggle in the Shen household , thus, she only wanted to become the first wife !But that official already had a first wife not to mention the first wife's maternal family wasn't easy to bully either . Hence; her father could only get her the position of the secondary wife , Shen Qin who was just fifteen that time was angry and frustrated; if she were to marry that man she will have the first wife above her and countless concubines beneath her , such a life , who dares want it?Hence; Shen Qin and Chen Chu Chu came with the idea of cooking rice with the most suitable bachelor, at that time Wang De parents were still alive and he looked refined and gentle, Shen Qin believed that this
" Sister, we should look for third miss soon even if second miss is not with her, but we should still check" said Han shi softly, fully exerting her dainty white lotus aura "I just came back from the men's banquet, many of the honorable guests are drunk too and they are resting in the men's quarters. The alcohol in our family is too strong and so perhaps - I don't want to make any assumptions but it's still safe than being sorry"She had deliberately pointed out that the male guests were drunk and were sleeping in their resting quarters, which was close to the banquet hall. In case Shen Xinyi and Shen Miao really got drunk and mistook the men's resting quarters as female ones what would happened?Luo Tong's eyes sharpened as she looked at Han Shi.Chen Chu Chu shook her head and admonished, Han Shi" what kind of non sense are you talking about? Our Shen family raised our daughters with nothing but ideal teachings and morals, they will never do something l
On the other side of the female guests, no one knew what trouble Chen Chu Chu was brewing, now that Shen Xinyi wasn't in the room, the only person who got ignored was Luo Tong. These ladies were Chen Chu Chu's friends and would naturally be on her side whether she was with them, or not. So even when Chen Chu Chu left the banquet hall, neither of them went ahead and conversed with Luo Tong. Even though they couldn't ridicule Luo Tong because of Luo Yaxian, together they worked hard to make Luo Tong feel sick and upset. They purposely ignored her and treated her coldly, they talked with Shen Yu and Shen Qin and even pretended to care about Liu Shi and Shen Rui, by speaking a few words to them. Only Luo Tong was ignored.Luo Tong wasn't angry, she was the granddaughter of the heavenly doctor Luo Yaxian and the daughter of the God of War, the attitude of these madams of small houses never bothered her before, so while the madams and their daughter conversed with their Shen
In the room that far overlooked the man's quarters, Shen Yu sat on the couch, though she was surrounded by numerous ladies of her age, she hardly listened to what they were saying, instead, all her attention was on the man’s quarters where Shen Xinyi was going to lose both her virtue and her marriage!Chen Chu Chu who was sitting beside her daughter noticed this oddity of hers and immediately coughed to remind Shen Yu,” you need to act like you know nothing of today’s matter or else things will go troublesome, you are smarter than this Yu’er” Chen Chu Chu whispered so softly as she tucked the lock of Shen Yu’s hair behind her ear that no one other than Shen Yu heard what she said, with her simpering smile and gentle actions, no one doubted her instead they all thought that Chen Chu Chu was speaking of something private to her daughter.Shen Yu eased her expression but she was still feeling a bit restless “ mother, are you
On the other hand, Chen Xiang was anxiously waiting for Shen Miao and Shen Xinyi. She felt really restless as she walked back and forth behind the moongate that joined the guest's sleeping quarters. She was so nervous that she almost made her accomplice go dizzy." Sister Chen don't you worry, the plan is completely flawless, nothing would go wrong, second mistress and third mistress will be coming soon. You should rest at ease and stay still what if they hear you ?" the young maid behind her couldn't help warn Chen Xiang.This moongate faced the courtyard with the bamboo forest, for the sake of their plans, Chen Chu Chu and Shen Yu have worked really hard. Even though it was really according to the customs to hold a banquet next to men's sleeping quarters. Chen Chu Chu and Shen Yu were willing to take the risk. They were willing but Chen Xiang was not, she was sure that something will definitely go wrong - the current second mistress, she doesn
The expressions of the madams who were conversing with Chen Chu Chu turned ugly, of course, they knew that Chen Chu Chu has been demoted to a concubine from the position of the secondary wife but they have been socialising with Chen Chu Chu for more than a decade, how can they start sucking up to Luo Tong just like that? Not to mention who was Luo Tong? She was the apple of the eye of Luo Yaxian, the legendary miracle doctor who don't give face to anyone other than the Imperial family. For a decade they sucked up to Chen Chu Chu while silently dissing Luo Tong behind her back, they have spent so many efforts in siding with Chen Chu Chu, how can they just give it all up without getting anything in return? With Chen Chu Chu they might at least be able to get some benefits but with Luo Tong, this legendary heroine - they might not receive anything at all! Just when the atmosphere was getting stale, and suffocating, Chen Min Min arrived with her mother Liu Yanxiao, the t
Shen Yu never wanted to listen to Chen Chu Chu‘s advice but she understood her status in the family, her grandmother and father loved to dote on her but that was only because she was ‘ born ‘ with the phoenix destiny if not they wouldn't have bothered with her at all. Now that she received the warning look from her mother she understandably looked away from Feng Tian Ming’s body even though she didn't want to! On what basis was she being asked to turn her gaze away from Feng Tian Ming’s body? While Shen Xinyi that bitch could stand next to him? Why? Why was she given as a sacrificial lamb to Feng Tian Ye?Shen Yu’s heart went cold, like her father she was born with high aspirations. She didn't like the attitude of the Luo family who looked down at her and her family a little too much. And she wasn't satisfied being just a daughter of the concubine either, whether it was Shen Xinyi or Shen Qi, she was not any less than them so why shou
Feng Tian Ming's words were like thorns sticking in the hearts of the Shen family . Shen Ping was so embarrassed that he didn't even dare to raise his head to look Feng Tian Ming in the eye. Everyone in the Ming Empire knew about his shameless past but since Shen Ping succeeded in crawling all the way up to the imperial court and became the Right Prime minister of the Ming Country, no one dared to bring his past up anymore.Because of this Shen Ping has more or less forgotten about his deeds, he has forgotten that he was able to become the prime minister in the imperial court all because he shamelessly clung on to the Luo family, leeching off their fame and success as the only son in law of Luo Yaxian.If not for Feng Tian Ming bringing the matter up , Shen Ping would have completely thrown it in the back of his head , never to be retrieved again .If someone else dared to say this he would have cleaned that person up within seconds but t
Once Chen Ping gave him a way out, Shen Ping calmed down and immediately knelt and welcomed the sixth and seventh prince , then greeted the two loudly “ Long Live his highness, Prince Liu , Long Live his highness, Prince Qi !”Following his loud greeting , Feng Tian Ming arrived behind him was his sixth brother Feng Tian Chen who was pushing his wheelchair . Even though Feng Tian Ming was sitting lazily in a wheelchair , his noble aura wasn’t diminished in the least . Instead with his black robe that was embroidered with an intrinsic red spider lily , he looked even more dangerous and refined . Those red hues mixed in those lighting blue eyes glittered under the sun, making everyone who faced him shiver.Shen Xinyi has just arrived at the front entrance seeing everyone kneeling in front of the two Princes , she too got on her knees with the help of HengHeng . She slightly raised her eyebrow and looked at Feng Tian Ming who was already look
“ Princess, are we really going to let her take third miss, just like that ?” Heng Heng who was standing behind Shen Xinyi immediately asked once Shen Yu was gone. She didn’t say anything earlier because she knew that her mistress wouldn’t let the eldest miss of the Shen family take advantage of the third miss so easily but she was still a little worried.Although Heng Heng didn’t know what was wrong with the hairpin that Shen Yu bestowed on the third miss. She still knew that something must be wrong with that hairpin and could cause hurt to Shen Miao according to the willingness that Shen Yu showed towards giving it to Shen Miao despite the latter’s refusal. Shen Yu might be a pretty good pretender but to Heng Heng and Shi Shi who have seen the cruelty of the world, she was nothing. They could see it with just one glance that Shen Yu approached them with evil intentions, no matter how bright and innocent her smile was it couldn&rsquo
