Transmigrating into the book: The daughter of the Shen family is too arrogant

Chapter 116 Birthday

Xiangyu touched the incense box's forehead with her finger and said, "That's what the Second Miss used to scare people. You've lived in Yuntai Mountain for so long. When have you ever seen a wolf? Let's go quickly. Don't keep the Second Miss waiting for too long."

Having said that, Xiangyu took the hand holding the incense box and hurried to follow Shen Qingyu.

In the end, Manager Wang asked Shen Qingyu to hand Manager Shen over to the mansion's Chief Butler for punishment. However, before sending Manager Shen to his hands, Shen Qingyu had already ordered Manager Wang to be beaten with a stick fifty times, leaving Manager Wang covered in bruises and with only half his life left to survive. Only then did he order the beating to stop.

Manager Wang was almost dead. He was sent to Butler Shen, who then sent him to the government office and imprisoned him on charges of murdering his master. He would probably be exiled to a remote frontier or imprisoned for life.

Shen Qingyu's move of killing the chicken to scare the monkey made the servants in the mansion who were fawning on Aunt Liu change their attitude one by one and no longer dared to neglect her, the second young lady.

When passing by Shen Xitong's courtyard, he unexpectedly met Shen Xitong.

Shen Xitong still had that beautiful face, and she was dressed in luxurious silk and satin, but her eyes were a little red and swollen, probably because she had been crying for several days because of the rumor. She secretly hated why the woman in the rumor was not her, but her second sister Shen Qingyu, who was average-looking and inferior to her in every way. She was unwilling to accept this!

"Shen Qingyu, with your looks, how could Master Nanrong be interested in you? Don't be so delusional. Master Nanrong is my future husband. You are really shameless for trying to get your hands on your brother-in-law!"

Shen Qingyu originally wanted to go around her, but Shen Xitong rushed forward and blocked her way, staring at her fiercely with her beautiful eyes.

"Yes, of course I can't compare to you, but you're not the only one who's the most beautiful in Jinling Mansion. Oh, I heard that Du Ruxi, the daughter of Dean Du, is very beautiful and famous in Jinling. She's also said to be the junior sister of Master Nanrong. They're a perfect match. Oh, I heard that Miss Qi, the daughter of Prefect Qi, is also obsessed with Master Nanrong. Sister, it seems that many people are eyeing your future brother-in-law."

If he wasn't her future brother-in-law, she wouldn't even bother thinking about it.

The women that Shen Qingyu deliberately mentioned in front of Shen Xitong were either more talented and beautiful than Shen Xitong, such as Du Ruxi, the daughter of President Du of Yunlu Academy, who was full of talent and unparalleled in coldness and beauty; or had better family background and status than Shen Xitong, such as Qi Yao, the daughter of the prefect of Jinling Prefecture, who was the daughter of a eunuch and the daughter of the main wife, which was far better than Shen Xitong, a concubine's daughter.

Even if Shen Xitong tried her best, there were still several huge mountains above her head, pressing her down and making everything impossible for her to achieve her goals.

"Sister, there are countless men in the world. Why do you have to share a husband with someone just for a young master Nanrong?"

What this means is that if Shen Xitong wants to marry into the Nanrong family, she can only be the concubine of Young Master Nanrong, just like her biological mother, Aunt Liu. It is simply a daydream for her to become the Young Lady of Nanrong.

Shen Xitong was furious after hearing Shen Qingyu's words. This sister had become more arrogant and harsher after returning from her trip to Yuntaishan. Her character was just like her arrogant mother, who was always looking down on others.

Isn't it just the identity of a legitimate daughter? In the end, who is the real legitimate daughter of the Shen family is still unknown!

"No matter what, I at least still have a chance, but you, Shen Qingyu, don't even have this chance. You probably don't know that in a few days, it will be Madam Nanrong's birthday. She will hold a banquet to invite the ladies and young ladies of the major families in Jinling Prefecture, and I will definitely go," Shen Xitong smiled with some pride. "Sister, it's a pity. You haven't reached the age of marriage this year. Madam Nanrong may have already excluded you from the list of young ladies from the many aristocratic families. You probably don't know that it is said that Madam Nanrong will use this birthday banquet to choose a wife for Master Nanrong."

"But even if you have reached the age of marriage, so what? The whole Jinling Prefecture is full of rumors that you are not a faithful wife. You have ruined your innocence before you even get married. My dear sister, as your elder sister, I am really worried about you. What if Master Nanrong refuses to accept you? What will you do?"

"Sister advises you to make plans early. Don't dream about Master Nanrong. He is your brother-in-law. You will never be able to marry him even if you want to!"

How could Master Nanrong take a fancy to a woman who has lost her reputation and looks so ordinary? Shen Qingyu, you can just wait to die in your boudoir for the rest of your life!

Mrs. Nan Rong’s birthday?

Because Shen Xitong let the cat out of the bag at once, Shen Qingyu immediately realized that the situation was not good.

How could Mrs. Nanrong not know about the rumors about her and Master Nanrong? Besides, Master Nanrong was old enough to get married. In order to quell the rumors, Mrs. Nanrong held a birthday banquet at this time. This could not only preserve the reputation of the Nanrong Mansion, but also force Master Nanrong to get married. Once the matter was settled, Old Master Nanrong would have no reason to object if he saw that his future granddaughter-in-law was pleasing to his eye.

Even if Old Master Nanrong is dissatisfied, if Young Master Nanrong nods himself, then this matter will have to be accepted.

No wonder Shen Xitong was so confident, as if she would be able to marry into the Nanrong family soon.

I guess Madam Nanrong is on the side of Master Nanrong.

As long as Aunt Liu is promoted to a co-wife and becomes a woman of the Shen family, Shen Xitong's status will naturally rise. For Shen Chuanhe, if he can really marry into the Nanrong Mansion, even if he is asked to divorce Bai Ying, I am afraid he will consider how to do it so as not to cause gossip.

"Good sister, don't be too sad. If your future brother-in-law likes you, I, as your elder sister, don't mind leaving a position of concubine for you. After all, you are the legitimate daughter of our Shen family. Being a concubine is a bit unfair to you, isn't it? Hahaha!"

Shen Xitong laughed, looked at Shen Qingyu who was a little dazed with disdain, and left with her maid.

Madam Nan Rong's birthday party really caught Shen Qingyu off guard. She couldn't remember whether there was a birthday party for Madam Nan Rong among the various engagement parties held by Shen Xitong and Nan Rongyan.

She listened to it in a hurry and couldn't remember some of it. For a moment, she couldn't think of any response plan and could only take it one step at a time.

Shen Qingyu sighed and was not in a hurry to deal with these things. The most important thing for her to come back this time was to see Shen Youhong.

If Shen Youhong's condition is serious, then she will have to take a long-term approach to her plans regarding Aunt Liu and Shen Xitong.
