Soon, Shen Nianzhen was invited into the house.

"Sister Shen!" Liao Yulan was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly stepped forward, but when she walked in front of Shen Nianzhen, she somehow stopped again, flashed a pair of big eyes, and looked at her with some hesitation.

"Fourth Miss, you should call the second princess, you can't be the same as before." The grandmother who led Shen Nianzhen in immediately disagreed.

"It's okay, don't mind this little thing." Shen Nianzhen immediately waved his hand when he heard this, glanced at Mama with a smile, and said, "You go and wait outside, let me talk to the fourth lady alone for a while, okay?" “

Mama hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "If the princess has any orders, the slave and maid are outside." ”

After saying that, he retreated.

There were only two left in the room, Shen Nianzhen and Liao Yulan.

Outside, Liao Kanglan learned that Shen Nianzhen was coming, so she hurried over, but was stopped by her grandmother: "The princess is persuading the fourth young lady, don't go in yet, just wait outside this house, okay?" ”

"Really here?" Liao Kanglan stretched her neck to look into the courtyard, but the lights were bright, the door was closed, and she could only see two figures in the house, but she couldn't hear what they were saying.

Liao Kanglan couldn't help but sigh.

In the room, Shen Nianzhen poured himself a cup of tea at the table, then sat on the small couch and took a sip comfortably, and then raised his eyes to look at Liao Yulan, and said in an indifferent tone: "Say, what's going on, a good marriage, why don't you want to get married, are you regretting it a little late now?" ”

"Sister Shen, I'm ......"

Liao Yulan stood in front of Shen Nianzhen with some anxiety, her two fingertips as white as jade pinched the hem of her clothes tightly, looking at her speechless: "Sister Shen, I, I have a hard ......"

"Oh? What's the pain? Listen to it, rest assured, no matter how outrageous it is, I won't laugh at you. Shen Nianzhen said with a smile when she heard this, she had experienced such a big thing as the Shen family, and had experienced the tragic death of being calculated in the previous life, she felt that no matter what Liao Yulan said, she would be unfazed.

However, Liao Yulan shocked her as soon as she opened her mouth.

"Sister Shen, since that's the case, then I'll say it." Liao Yulan listened to her words, and suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said: "I, I thought that Brother Shen wanted to withdraw from the marriage." ”

"What? My brother?! The tea that Shen Nianzhen had just drunk squirted out all of a sudden.

She still lost her temper.

Liao Yulan nodded, since she had opened her mouth, the most difficult and unspeakable part had been passed, and there was nothing to be afraid of next, and she said faintly: "Yes, it's because Sister Shen's eldest brother, I, when I was twelve years old, I already liked him......"

As he spoke, he lowered his head shyly.

"It's not." Shen Nianzhen was a little anxious when she heard this, she interrupted Liao Yulan's words, and said with some puzzlement: "You like my eldest brother?" And it's been like it since the age of twelve? You're not kidding, are you? ”

"Of course not!" Liao Yulan said with a straight face when she heard this: "Kang Lan also knows about this matter, but none of us have ever talked about it......"

"But my eldest brother has married my sister-in-law, and they are very affectionate." Shen Nianzhen looked at her with a somewhat complicated expression.

She likes the Liao family so much, and she really treats them as her own sisters in her heart, and she never expected that one day, she would hear such words from Liao Yulan's mouth.

But it's understandable when you think about it.

Her eldest brother Shen Yunlan was originally extremely good, and he was already very loved by the girls in Beijing, the Liao family and the Shen family had a close relationship, and the sisters of the Liao family often came to the Shen family, it was normal for Liao Yulan to like Shen Yunlan at a young age, but the strange thing was that she never revealed this to anyone.

Shen Nian's strange place is also here.

"yes." Liao Yulan smiled bitterly when she heard this, and replied: "So I have never told anyone, I have accepted my fate, and I have accepted all the family affairs arranged by the family, I thought that my life was like this, and I could only silently keep Brother Shen in my heart...... But who would have thought that such a thing would happen, Sister-in-law Shen is gone, Brother Shen's life and death are uncertain now, I know that he will definitely be able to wake up! ”

Shen Nianzhen looked at her gaze with some pity: "I see, so you feel that you have hope now, so you are making a fuss about withdrawing from the marriage?" ”

"Yes!" Liao Yulan admitted it without concealment.

This made Shen Nianzhen speechless for a while.

On the one hand, she felt Liao Yulan's deep affection for her eldest brother, but on the other hand, she was very happy in her heart.

The sister-in-law has only been dead for less than four months, and there are already people thinking about her eldest brother, which is really unpleasant.

Shen Nianzhen felt that it was necessary for him to puncture the little girl's naïve fantasies.

"Magnolia, have you ever thought about it?" Shen Nianzhen sighed, looked at her and said with pity: "Although you and I both firmly believe that my eldest brother will definitely come to his senses, but in fact, this is not necessarily, no one can guarantee that he will really wake up, even so, you have to withdraw from the marriage and wait for my eldest brother?" ”

"Whether he wakes up or not, I have to get out of the marriage!" Liao Yulan replied without hesitation when she heard this: "Sister Shen, don't question my determination, in the past, I was willing to get by and live this life, but now, I don't want to settle anymore!" It was Brother Shen who awakened the unwillingness hidden in my heart. “

"My eldest brother, like me, treats your sisters as relatives." Shen Nianzhen looked at her and said meaningfully, "Are you sure that after he wakes up, he will like you?" He witnessed his wife die tragically in front of him while she was pregnant, and he couldn't even attend her funeral...... Do you think he will love another man with the same love for the rest of his life? ”

"It is precisely because of this that I feel more sorry for him and want to take care of him more." Liao Yulan was a little heartbroken when she heard this, but she still replied seriously: "It doesn't matter whether Brother Shen likes me or not, the important thing is that I am willing to take care of him and accompany him." ”

"Girl, you are still too naïve to experience the darkness of life." Shen Nianzhen looked at her, sighed, and said seriously: "For the last time, I will persuade you as a sister to forget my brother!" Marry your husband and live a peaceful life! That kind of life without burden and pain is your life! Your life can't be ruined at my brother's hands! “

"How do you know that if I divorce the marriage, my life will be ruined if I follow Brother Shen?"

Liao Yulan said with some excitement when she heard this: "Sister Shen! Don't you want to wait for Brother Shen to come to his senses, and a woman who knows his roots and truly loves him will accompany him through this period of life? Don't you care about him at all? ”

These words already have some accusatory implications.

It seems that Liao Yulan really loves Shen Yunlan miserably, and she does not hesitate to go toe-to-toe with Shen Nianzhen for him.

Shen Nianzhen sighed slightly in his heart.

"Yulan, do you know, if I care about my brother a little bit in my heart, but if I am selfish." She said faintly: "As long as I don't treat you as my own sister, when I hear your words, I will be very happy and happy!" Of course, I know that if you get married, it will be a great good thing for our Shen family! But that's so selfish! ”

"Our Shen family's life has always been worthy of heaven and earth, everything is frank and open, never afraid of offending people, what I am most afraid of is sorry for others."

"But ......," Liao Yulan wanted to explain.

Shen Nianzhen waved her hand, breaking her last illusion: "Even if my eldest brother is sober, he will never agree to be with you in his life!" It's impossible to marry you! I will never let you stay by his side! You've figured it out! ”

Liao Yulan's face suddenly turned pale when she heard this.

She looked at Shen Nianzhen and said in disbelief, "Why? Why is this happening? Kanglan married into the Shen family, all of you agreed, and even contributed to this family business, but it was not my turn? ”

"Because first, you have already made a marriage, and a gentleman does not take the favor of others."

"Second, my eldest brother has also been married, although my sister-in-law has passed away, she will always be my sister-in-law in my heart, and no one can replace her."

"Third, my eldest brother is unconscious now, and he won't accept you when he wakes up."

"With these three points, our Shen family will not agree." Shen Nianzhen looked at her and said seriously: "Yulan, you are a good girl, why don't you pursue your own sea and sky?" Is it really good to marry my brother, someone who will always have pain in his heart and will never love you? ”

"You'll never understand my affection." Liao Yulan bit her lip and said stubbornly.

Shen Nianzhen said so much, there were so many questions in front of her, but she still wanted to work hard! Life is capricious this time, and whether you will live the life you want as you want in the future, or live your life step by step, it depends on this time.

"I don't understand?" Shen Nianzhen looked at her and smiled helplessly.

Then she got up and walked to the door and opened it.

The grandmother, Mrs. Liao, and Liao Kanglan and others who were eavesdropping outside, were all stunned.

Although Liao Kanglan knew that Liao Yulan liked Shen Yunlan in her heart, she never thought that things would develop in this direction!

My sister actually wants to withdraw from the marriage for the sake of Shen Yunlan, who is unconscious, oh my God!

Soon, the news reached the ears of Mrs. Liao, and she was taken aback, as if she had been struck by lightning.

It took a long time to react, and the people around kept shouting at the old lady, for fear that she wouldn't be able to get up in one breath and hold back.

Mrs. Liao herself gradually calmed down, let the grandmothers who were holding her retreat, and asked the grandmothers who came to report the news, as well as Mrs. Liao, "What does the second princess mean?" ”

"The second princess disagrees." After listening to the whole process, Mrs. Liao was quite calm: "She also said that with the Shen family's style of acting, she would not agree to this matter at all, and she has been persuading Yulan to dispel her thoughts and marry her life well, alas, this child does not even listen to the princess's words." “

"That's what the princess said?" Old Mrs. Liao asked.

"It's true." Mrs. Liao nodded, and said with a wistful expression: "The princess's attitude is the attitude of the Shen family, but it's a pity that no matter how tough she is, Yulan's intention to withdraw from the marriage still does not change, and the princess failed to persuade her......"

When Mrs. Liao heard this, she sighed.

"When did this kid have this kind of thought, why did he never tell anyone about it?"

She said helplessly: "If this was when Shen Yunlan didn't get married a few years ago, this family affair would have been a good family affair, but now...... That's a fire pit! Whoever jumps in is really stupid......"

"It didn't work out a few years ago." Mrs. Liao said faintly: "With that Princess Zhaohua here, no matter who marries Shen Yunlan, the final outcome will not be good, now, that Princess Zhaohua is missing, and Shen Yunlan's life and death are uncertain, it's difficult." ”

"Speaking of which, the attitude of the Zhu family of the Yongchang Bo Mansion is also very strange." Mrs. Liao said: "Originally, when Zhu Xiuyan's corpse first returned to Beijing, it was so noisy, the nose of the Shen family was not the nose, and the eyes were not eyes, but when Zhu Xiuyan was buried, Shen Yunlan was still unconscious, and after that, he didn't make a fuss anymore, I'm afraid there was some reason for this." ”

Mrs. Liao was a little surprised when she heard this, and couldn't help but guess: "In that case, it can't be that the Shen family promised the Zhu family any conditions, such as Shen Yunlan will never marry a wife when he wakes up in the future, for example, even if he marries a wife, he can only marry from the Zhu family, and cannot marry someone else?" I want to tell Yulan the news as soon as possible! “

After she finished speaking, she went out in a hurry.

Mrs. Liao's original intention was to say that the Zhu family may not be willing to marry the Shen family again, and the reason why the Zhu family is like this is probably for some other reason.

But seeing her excitement, I swallowed those words.

I don't know if I can persuade Liao Yulan for this reason?

Sure enough, Liao Yulan was stunned when she heard what her mother said.

"Daughter, the second princess is embarrassed to directly tell the plans of the Shen family and the Zhu family, so I vaguely advise you not to bother with this." Mrs. Liao sighed, looked at her face and said, "You just listen to your mother's words, let's not withdraw from the marriage, and marry to the Zhao family in peace......"

"Mother, I'm tired and want to be alone for a while." Liao Yulan opened her mouth to interrupt her: "You go back first!" I'll figure it out. ”

Mrs. Liao was stunned, but when she saw her appearance, she couldn't help but let out a long sigh and turned to leave.

After Shen Nianzhen left the Liao family, he didn't go back to the palace, but went directly to the Shen family.

She told Mrs. Shen and Liao Fangru everything Liao Yulan said.

Old Mrs. Shen is okay, but Liao Yulan is about to petrify.

It's not enough for her to marry a niece, but to marry another one? Oh, my God!

Old Lady Shen was completely surprised, and frowned: "Isn't Yulan already married?" A few days ago, I heard from an old sister that she had already begun to discuss the marriage date! Isn't it okay to get out of the marriage at this time? Moreover, our Yunlan hasn't come to his senses yet, and Xiuyan has only recently died, so it's really not a good time to talk about marriage, so let's refuse! ”

That's what her granddaughter told her. Shen Nianzhen smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Grandmother, it's not that the timing is wrong, it's that our Shen family can't do this kind of thing to pry other people's corners!" You can't do that! ”

"That's right." Old Lady Shen nodded again and again when she heard this.

Liao Fangru listened on the side, silently breathing a sigh of relief in her heart.

Don't make any more moths, how good it would be to nip this thing in the bud!

"Ming'er, let people prepare some gifts and send them to Liao's house, just say that our Shen family congratulates Miss Liao Wu on her new marriage in advance." Old Lady Shen said: "You can't say it so directly, if you send things over, they should understand the attitude of our Shen family!" ”

"Okay, I'll get ready." Liao Fangru immediately said with a smile.

Shen Nianzhen and Mrs. Shen watched her busy, and couldn't help but smile at each other, each with a little bitterness in their hearts.

The next day, the things arrived as scheduled.

Liao Yulan looked at the table full of gifts, and listened to Mama Zhou's smiling voice: "This is the wedding gift that our old lady specially prepared for Miss Five, I heard that her wedding date has been set, is it at the end of the year?" “

Mrs. Liao smiled as usual, and couldn't close her mouth with a smile when she heard the words: "It's decided!" It's not the end of the year, it's the beginning of next year. “

"At the beginning of the year? There were many good days back then. Mama Zhou smiled brightly, and spoke impenetrablely: "Our two families are so close because of the relationship between the two princes, if there is anything inconsiderate, I hope the old lady will not be surprised." “

"No, no!" Old Mrs. Liao smiled and waved her hand: "Your etiquette is already thoughtful enough, where is there anything right." ”

Liao Yulan stood aside, listening to their greetings back and forth, and the smile on her face gradually stiffened.

Mama Zhou's meaning represents the meaning of the Shen family.

The Shen family rejected her.

Liao Yulan suddenly turned around and walked out without saying a word, and the old lady Liao hurriedly shouted: "Yulan! Yulan! Why are you going? Come back quickly! ”

Liao Yulan turned a deaf ear and walked quickly.

Mrs. Liao was a little worried, and immediately sent the powerful big girl beside her to follow Liao Yulan.

"Yes, old lady."

Mama Zhou also got up when she saw this situation, and was slightly embarrassed: "In this case, I will go back and talk to our old lady first." “

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Liao hurriedly got up and personally sent her out.

Here Liao Yulan left Liao's house, went out and got into the carriage directly, wandering around in Shangjing aimlessly, the coachman asked her where she was going, and she didn't say.

Until it was almost dark, Liao Yulan suddenly reached out and lifted the curtain of the car, and instructed the coachman: "Go to Shen's house!" I'm going to Shen's house! ”

The Shen family? Yes? At this time? Going alone?

The coachman was so stunned that he forgot to whip his whip for a moment, and the carriage stopped in the middle of the road.
