Bai Lu picked up the paper that Shen Miao had written and dried it before getting up to send it to the kitchen. Now that the people of the west courtyard were not eating with the people of the east courtyard, they reopened the kitchen. It was obvious that they did not trust the east courtyard.
“I heard that Young Master Jing and Old Madam quarreled again today.” As Jingzhe cleaned up the paper and ink on the table for Shen Miao, she said, “It seems that the Jing family is already on the way here. Old Madam must be anxious.”
“I’ve said everything I had to say.” Shen Miao picked up her tea and took a sip. “The Jing siblings are smart. They won’t let others take advantage of them for nothing.”
“Young Master Jing is really ruthless.” Gu Yu also said, “Now, he’s threatening to report it to the government. He clearly knows that Second Young Master has just returned to the capital to take on a post. If he reports it to the government, Second Young Master’s official career will be ruined. In my opinion, Second Young Master will definitely marry Miss Jing this time.” At the end of her sentence, she couldn’t help but sigh and suppress the joy in her heart.
Old Madam Shen was disgusting. Now that she had shot herself in the foot, how could they not feel happy?
“However…” Jingzhe asked,” Why is Miss Jing trying so hard to marry Second Young Master? Second Young Master doesn’t like her and Old Madam Shen despises her. Even if she marries him, there will be no love. Isn’t Miss Jing just making herself suffer? ”
Shen Miao smiled. “Jing Chuchu didn’t marry a person, but money. In that case, what difference does it make if she likes him or not?” In her previous life, when Jing Chuchu married Shen Qiu, Shen Qiu treated her well, but in the end, she still cheated on Shen Qiu. To Jing Chuchu, as long as she could climb up the social ladder, it did not matter who she married.
“Speaking of which.” Gu Yu curled her lips. “Miss Jing wanted to harm Eldest Young Master. Shouldn’t she be punished for that?”
Shen Miao opened the window and looked out. “Do you think this is the end?”
Gu Yu’s eyes lit up. “Miss, you still have something up your sleeve?” The longer she stayed with Shen Miao, the more she had seen Shen Miao’s methods. In the past, she would probably be surprised by Shen Miao’s coldness and viciousness, but after experiencing so many things, she really did not have any pity for the other two branches of the Shen family at all.
“It’s only the beginning.” Shen Miao said, “Jing Chuchu schemed against my brother first. Does she think she can get away with it?”
Jingzhe and Gu Yu looked at Shen Miao with sparkling eyes. Shen Miao waved her hand and said, “Go and give Fu’er the money we promised her.”
Old Madam Shen had been busy dealing with Jing Chuchu and Jing Guansheng recently, so she did not have the time to find out the truth. Sooner or later, Fu’er would be married to the one-eyed son of the butler. With money, she could think of a way to escape from the Shen family.
Gu Yu took the money and smiled. “I understand. Should I also give a portion to the maid beside Miss Jing?”
Shen Miao nodded in satisfaction. “That’s right.”
The dog that bit the hardest was the dog one raised by their side just like Lizi from her previous life.
However, now the lessons she learned could be used to deal with her enemies.
…
Five days later, the news of Shen Yuan and Jing Chuchu’s engagement spread throughout the capital.
As the most outstanding young master in the Shen family other than Shen Qiu, Shen Yuan had just returned to the capital to take on a post after a few years of training on the border. Originally, what awaited him was a bright future. There was no lack of girls with good family backgrounds and looks in the capital. It was not difficult for him to find a wife who could help him have a smooth-sailing career.
