Chapter 186: Unwilling to Be a Concubine

Mrs. Shen just felt that she was disappointed with her son and that all her years of teaching were wasted.

He pointed at Shen Luoxue with an angry look on his face.

"Rebellious daughter, could it be that your mother will harm you?"

Then he flicked his sleeves.

"Come here, take the young lady away to rest. From now on, the young lady is forbidden to leave the Shen family again. Anyone who disobeys will be beaten to death by this lady."

Soon Shen Luoxue's maid Lihua and Madam Shen's personal mother, Mother Qiu, came in and helped Shen Luoxue walk out.

Mother Qiu began to advise.

"Miss, Madam loves you the most. Miss, you must listen to Madam's words."

Shen Luoxue didn't expect that Madam Shen would not let her go out again. Wouldn't that mean Shen Luoyun would be alone when she went to the Shen family? She struggled in panic.

"Mother, you can't do this. Mother, if you really love your daughter, you should let her marry the person she loves."

Madam Shen’s face was filled with anger, and she raised her hand to slap Shen Luoxue, but in the end she couldn’t bear it, and her hand stopped in mid-air.

"If you don't take him away, skip tomorrow's breakfast, so that the young lady will know what the rules are."

In the end, Shen Luoxue was dragged away by the struggle.

Mrs. Shen sat on the chair with a sad face. Although Mrs. Jun spoke gently, she had met many people over the years and naturally saw that she was definitely not a simple

What's more, even if I haven't experienced it, I have heard about what exile is like. How could it be simple to protect my family all the way to the northwest?

Moreover, Mr. Jun's attitude towards Mrs. Jun is so intolerant of others that if his daughter really married into the Jun family, there would definitely be no good outcome.

Mother Qiu sent Shen Luoxue back to her yard, and when she came back she saw Madam Shen looking worried.

Immediately and considerately poured Mrs. Shen a cup of tea.

"Don't be sad, Madam. The young lady will figure it out eventually."

Mrs. Shen took the teacup and reached out to press her solar plexus.

"That young master Jun is so handsome and eloquent, I'm afraid Xue'er is really interested in him."

Mother Qiu has been with Shenzhou Mansion since she was a child. For so many years, she has assisted Madam Shen in managing the inner house, so she is naturally a smart one.

"If Madam really doesn't want the young lady to be a concubine, there are two options. First, we can only ask the Master to intervene and allow Young Master Jun to marry the young lady.

Second, we should put pressure on Weiyun Pavilion to get the Second Miss married into the Jun family as soon as possible. After all, the master's goal is to have a marriage relationship with the Jun family. As for which daughter it is, the master probably doesn't care. "

Mrs. Shen thought about it after hearing this.

"The first one is definitely not feasible. Not to mention that Mr. Jun can't possibly marry Xue'er, Xue'er will definitely not be a match for Madam Jun's methods. Madam Jun seems very gentle, but that's because she hasn't done anything wrong. If you do something she can't tolerate, her methods are definitely not comparable to those of the ordinary people in the harem."

After hearing this, Mother Qiu spoke in agreement.

"Madam is right. Madam Jun is definitely not as simple as she appears to be. It seems that we can only put pressure on Weiyun Pavilion."

Mrs. Shen thought for a while.

"Starting tomorrow, stop giving the medicine from Weiyun Pavilion and tell that girl Shen Luoyun that the Shen family doesn't support idle people. If they want Concubine Liu to live, she, as their daughter, must fight for it."

In Weiyun Pavilion.

Shen Luoyun was feeding medicine to Aunt Liu.

"Aunt, I went to the Jun family with my father and elder sister today. Madam Jun is really amazing. As a woman, she not only made her business prosperous, but also boosted the income of the people. I also learned how to grow mushrooms today. Madam Jun gave me a lot of mushroom seeds. I will grow mushrooms in our yard tomorrow. In the future, we can eat mushrooms grown by ourselves."

After Aunt Liu drank the last sip of medicine, she spoke with a guilty look on her face.

"Luo Yun, good boy, it's your aunt who is useless and has dragged you down."

Shen Luoyun handed the medicine bowl to the maid Qingmei, motioned Qingmei to take it away, and then spoke in a low voice.

"Mother, what nonsense are you talking about? You are my mother, how can you tell your daughter whether she is a burden or not?"

Aunt Liu spoke hurriedly.

"Luo Yun, you should call me Auntie."

Shen Luoyun heard this but spoke.

"Mother, I know. There's no one else here now. Mother, what are you afraid of? You just need to relax and recuperate. I'll take care of the rest. I've thought about it. Madam Jun is so amazing. If I follow her, I'll definitely learn a lot. As long as we have money in our hands, there's nothing to be afraid of."

Aunt Liu spoke with a worried look on her face.

"Luo Yun, your father didn't mean for you to learn business from Madam Jun, but for you..."

I felt like I couldn’t say the following words, and the wrinkles on my forehead became even deeper.

Shen Luoyun reached out and held Aunt Liu's hand.

"Mother, I don't want to be a concubine, even if I die. For these years, we have been trapped in this courtyard, and our food and clothing all depend on our mother's mood. I have had enough of this kind of life. Even if I marry a common man, it is better than living under the rule of the wife."

Aunt Liu's face turned pale when she heard this.

"Luo Yun, please don't let anyone else hear this."

Then his face was filled with sorrow.

"Luo Yun, it's my aunt who has implicated you. If my aunt hadn't become a concubine, you wouldn't have been born a concubine. I'm afraid we can't decide your marriage on our own. Moreover, for a large family, marriage alliances are even more important..."

Seeing that Aunt Liu was about to use her usual rhetoric again, Shen Luoyun hurriedly interrupted her.

"Mother, it's late. You should get some rest first. I know my daughter's limits in everything."

As he said this, he stood up, helped Aunt Liu lie down, and pulled the quilt up for her.

Aunt Liu also knew that her daughter had been stubborn since she was a child, and since she was not in good health, she could not help her daughter much, so she had no choice but to lie down and rest.

A night passed.

The next day, we had lunch at noon.

Aunt Liu’s medicine hasn’t arrived yet.

Shen Luoyun ordered hurriedly.

"Qingmei, go to the kitchen and see why Auntie's medicine hasn't been delivered yet."

At this moment, a voice was heard.

"Second Miss, there's no need to send anyone to check."

When Shen Luoyun looked up, he saw Mother Qiu, who was beside his stepmother, walking towards him, and he quickly stood up to greet her.

"Mother Qiu."

Mother Qiu gave a perfunctory bow.

"Second Miss, the mansion has been short of money lately, and Madam has said we need to save money. Madam Liu has been taking her medicine for so long, and her illness should be cured. From today on, she doesn't need to take the medicine anymore."

Shen Luoyun spoke hurriedly when he heard it.

"Mother Qiu, my aunt's illness hasn't healed yet, how can we stop taking the medicine? We have been well-behaved for so many years and have never caused trouble for my stepmother. I want to see my stepmother."
