Chapter 98: I want to dig a grave
The news of Shen Huaizhi's return to his home soon spread.
Worried that there would be eyes staring, Shen Yu'an didn't dare to visit the child if she wanted to, so she could only rest in the house that night.
Early the next morning, Wen Lingyi came and was led by the maid to Tinglan Courtyard.
As soon as she saw Shen Tinglan, she looked worried, "Sister Lan is okay?" Marquis Shen rejected the Chu family's request to marry, and Prince Chu was very sad, I was worried about you, and I came to visit after a post, but I was turned away. ”
Shen Tinglan heard that Chu Jun was sad, and her heart was very sour, but she knew that she couldn't be willful now, she was the only bloodline of her father's mother, she couldn't be selfish and only think about her own feelings, she had to think about the future of the entire Pingxi Hou Mansion.
My father and mother said last night that if she could, I hope she would not marry outside, and she would let out a rumor to recruit a son-in-law for her.
Her husband can not be prominent, but he must have the talent of the top three in the imperial examination, and he must help revitalize the Shen family.
Chu Jun and his third brother participated in the imperial examination in the same batch, and she didn't ask him about his ranking, only that he served in the county government of Li County.
The county magistrate of Li County is just a seventh-grade petty official, and there is an errand under the seventh-grade petty official, so there is no grade.
"Sister Wen, my father and mother have promised me that I can leave the house freely in the future. Chu Jun, you tell him for me that I won't marry him. ”
Wen Lingyi was surprised, "Don't you like him very much?" Why didn't you marry him? Is it because your father and mother disagree? Most parents in the world love their daughters, you cry, make trouble, hang yourself, make some noise, can your father and mother disagree? ”
Shen Tinglan frowned, if it weren't for the words of the second sister yesterday, she wouldn't have realized that she had hurt her father's heart, how could Wen Lingyi instigate her like this? If she really cried, made trouble, and hanged herself, how sad would her father and mother be?
"Sister Wen, my father and mother love me, and I love them too, if I cry and make trouble, they will be very sad."
"You're afraid that your father and mother will be sad, aren't you worried about Chu Jun's sadness? If your father and mother don't agree, will you give up Chu Jun easily? Can't the love between you stand the test at all? ”
"Love is not as important as my father's mother, no matter how much I like Chu Jun, I can't disobey my father and mother for him."
Wen Lingyi's face turned unsightly, "You said before that you would fight for Chu Jun to the end, how can you give up on him so easily now?" Don't you think about Chu Jun's feelings at all? ”
Shen Tinglan was silent, she was also worried that Chu Jun would be sad, but she couldn't be too selfish, and she couldn't ignore her father's feelings because of love.
Her three brothers are dead, and her father and mother are already bitter enough, if she is disobedient again, how sad will her father and mother be?
"Lan'er." Wen Lingyi held Shen Tinglan's hand, sighed, and said seriously, "Love is hard to find, it's rare to meet someone you really like, you shouldn't give up lightly." ”
"Sister Wen, you don't understand, I really can't marry Chu Jun. He and I are not in the right household, and he can't add any help to my family at all, and he can't help my father and mother at all. I married him, and I was happy, but what about my family? ”
Wen Lingyi looked incredulous, "How did you become so realistic?" Like most people in the world, you are also interested in your origins? Chu Jun has a bad background, is that what he can decide? How can you look down on him because of that? ”
"I didn't look down on him."
"If you don't want to marry him because of his background, you just look down on him."
Shen Tinglan couldn't refute it for a while.
"You disappointed me so much, I thought you were different from others, but I didn't expect you to ...... If you care about Chu Jun's background, then why did you contact him in the first place? gave hope to others, deceived people with a sincere heart, turned his head and said that he would not marry, is there such a hurtful thing as you? ”
Shen Tinglan was still silent, she originally wanted to listen to the second sister, continue to contact with Chu Jun, cherish every moment together, and dare not contact again at the moment, giving him hope in vain, which hurts his heart even more.
"Lan'er, you really don't plan to fight with your family again?" Wen Lingyi asked without giving up.
Shen Tinglan shook his head, "My family is not my enemy, I can't fight against them. ”
Wen Lingyi was a little annoyed and forced down her emotions, "That's it, you don't want to marry, no one can marry according to your head." But Chu Jun, you have to give him an explanation and make it clear to him, you can't abandon him like this. ”
"Well, I will, I also want to see him and say goodbye."
"I heard that your brother has returned home?"
"Well, I came back yesterday."
"Can you introduce me to your brother? I ......" Wen Lingyi suddenly looked shy, "I like him a little, and my family and yours are also a good match." ”
Shen Tinglan was surprised, and didn't expect it at all, "When did it happen?" Why haven't I heard you mention it? ”
"It's been a long time, and I liked him for a long time, especially the day he was on the list, if it weren't for his thin skin, I would have let people catch my son-in-law on the list. He was the most handsome, gentle and elegant man I had ever met. ”
Wen Lingyi said, covering her face shyly, "Oops, I'm embarrassed." ”
Shen Tinglan was in a complicated mood, if her third brother really came back to life, she would happily introduce Wen Lingyi, but now, ......
Seeing that Shen Tinglan didn't react, Wen Lingyi frowned and asked, "What's wrong?" With an unhappy look, don't you think I'm not worthy of your brother and don't want to be introduced? ”
"Of course not, it's just that you're not the type my third brother likes." Shen Tinglan said euphemistically.
"Your third brother doesn't have a favorite woman, how do you know that I'm not the type he likes?"
Shen Tinglan didn't know what to say, and was very distressed, "Oh, it's really not." ”
Wen Lingyi stared at Shen Tinglan, "Don't you like me to be your sister-in-law?" Are we still friends? ”
"Of course we're friends, but ......"
"No, but if it's a friend, it's a friend who will help me pull the red line."
Shen Tinglan was very helpless, "Okay, whatever you want, I reminded you, my brother won't like you." ”
"How do you know if you don't try? Your brother is still in the house, right? ”
"It should be there."
"Now, now you can take me to him."
Wen Lingyi dragged Shen Tinglan away, looking anxious, as soon as she came out of Tinglan Courtyard, she instantly let go of Shen Tinglan and returned to her ladylike appearance.
Shen Tinglan smiled, "You just pretend." ”
"I didn't pretend, Miss Ben was originally very gentle."
The two of them went to Kaedebashi Temple.
As soon as I arrived at the place, I saw Shen Yu'an going out, holding a hoe and shovel in her hand.
"Brother, what are you doing here? What to do with a hoe and shovel? ”
Shen Yu'an glanced at Wen Lingyi, and as soon as the other party touched his eyes, he hurriedly lowered his head, looking a little shy, and quickly withdrew his gaze.
"I'm going to play."
"Where to play? We're going too. ”
Shen Yu'an thought for a while, and a dark glint flashed in her eyes, "Then let's go together." ”
She was going to dig Jiang Bingyue's grave.
