Chapter 435 The younger man doesn't call her "sister," he has a wild heart.

The topic suddenly shifted to Pei Yuan, and Shen Chu was taken aback.

Yunhai thought to himself, "When I took you away from the capital, we mingled with Shangguan Ye's entourage and left."

Before leaving the capital, I inquired about it and found out that Pei Yuan and the Chen family had indeed become related by marriage.

Remember what your master said: No matter how good a man is, once he has a wife, he is worthless to us.

You can't go back to the Great Wei and, after meeting Pei Yuan, be so easily charmed by him that you forget everything else.

If you dare agree to become her concubine, or continue to have entanglements with her, I will break your legs, do you understand?

His last words were accompanied by an unusually stern expression.

Shen Chu nodded quickly, his expression resolute.

"Master, don't worry, I won't. I won't become anyone's concubine, and I certainly won't get entangled with a married man."

Yun Haixin's expression softened slightly, and he patted Chen Chu's hand.

"Remember your master's words, don't believe the prejudices of worldly people, such as women shouldn't remarry, or that women who have given birth can't find good men."

That's all nonsense. It's like they're allowing men to be fickle and have multiple partners.

Are we women not allowed to find men we like? Men are something we shouldn't take too seriously.

Having money and children doesn't preclude happiness. Men aren't a necessity in life. If you have to find one, wouldn't it be better to find someone who can make you happy?

However, Shangguan Yi is another story. That kid has been following you around all year; don't think I don't know what he's up to.

Mentioning Shangguan Yi, Chen Chu rubbed her forehead.

Shangguan Yi is the second prince of the Southern Yue royal family and the nephew of Shangguan Ye.

During the three years that Shangguan Yi spent recuperating at Qingliang Villa, he often came with Shangguan Ye.

Initially, her leg injury had not yet healed, and she needed to use a wheelchair.

Shangguan Yi volunteered to push her around the villa, claiming it was to familiarize her with the layout.

No matter how much she refused, it was to no avail.

His shameless demeanor was a stark contrast to his arrogant and domineering master persona in the Great Wei Dynasty.

When she gets out of the wheelchair, she will need to gradually exercise and recover.

Shangguan Yi came almost every day, watching her sweat profusely after walking just a few steps because of leg pain, and how she was almost about to give up from the pain.

Shangguan Yi would then laugh at her from the side.

"You can't even endure this little bit of hardship? How did you manage to become the top scholar in the Great Wei Dynasty?"

"Why don't you just stop practicing and continue sitting in a wheelchair like this?"

Shen Chu was so angry with him that she gritted her teeth and endured that period of hardship.

Once she could walk again, she became familiar with Shangguan Yi.

"Shangguan Yi? Master must be mistaken. He's only eighteen this year, two years younger than me."

I only ever thought of him as a younger brother; I never considered anything more than that.

Yun Haixin snorted, "You treat him like a younger brother, but he might not treat you like an older sister."

Haven't you heard this saying?

"What?"

"She doesn't call younger women 'sister,' she's got a wild side."

Shen Chu looked bewildered. "What do you mean?"

Yun Haixin patted her hand.

"In short, you should be careful. The men of the Shangguan family are all bad news."

"Once we get out, we'll find a man who can make us happy."

An angry voice rang out from behind.

Whom do you want to go find?

Shen Chu turned her head and saw Shangguan Ye walking angrily toward them with a gloomy face.

He had obviously heard what Yun Haixin had just said.

Yun Haixin rolled her eyes.

"What business is it of yours who I talk to?"

Shangguan Ye's face turned ashen. "You are mine, and you will be mine for life. You can't find anyone else but me."

Yun Haixin sneered.

"Open your dog eyes and look carefully. I, Yun Haixin, am no longer the woman who was foolishly infatuated with love ten years ago."

You're not young anymore, stop putting on this sentimental act every day. It makes me sick and nauseous.

"Yunhai Xin!"

Shangguan Ye's roar echoed through the sky.

Shen Chu sighed inwardly and turned to leave.

Not worried about his master's safety, Shangguan Ye couldn't bear to hurt his master.

But she could see that there was still hatred in her master's eyes.

Hatred towards Shangguan Ye.

This hatred did not dissipate with the passage of time; instead, it became a knot in the master's heart.

Now that she is a mother herself, she naturally understands her master's feelings.

If anyone dares to hurt Little Potato and Little Apple, she will fight them to the death.

Therefore, Shangguan Ye's continued house arrest of his master was completely ineffective.

Shen Chu pondered taking his master back to the Great Wei.

But how can I get rid of Shangguan Ye?

Back in my yard, I overheard Little Potato and Little Apple talking.

"Little Potato, my wrist is sore, can I stop writing now?"

Little Apple's voice was soft and sweet, with a hint of coquetry.

Little Potato's voice sounded much colder.

"No, you have to practice calligraphy on one page a day. That's the bare minimum requirement for you."

My master said, "If you don't endure the hardship of studying when you're young, you'll suffer the hardship of life when you grow up. Hurry up and write."

Through the open window, Chen Chu saw her son with a stern face, tracing characters while scolding Xiao Pingguo.

That serious little face made Shen Chu laugh.

Little Potato started learning to trace characters two months ago, practicing one page a day. After two months, he can not only hold the pen steadily, but also write the simplest characters.

The little guy is frighteningly intelligent.

In contrast, my daughter, Little Apple, still can't hold her hands properly.

As soon as she starts writing, she begins to complain of wrist pain, headache, and body aches, resorting to all sorts of tricks, from acting cute and spoiled to feigning illness.

Just like now.

As soon as Little Potato finished speaking, Little Apple threw away her pen.

Lying on the table, she blinked her big eyes and smiled at Little Potato.

"My mother loves us so much, she wouldn't want Little Apple to suffer."

Little Potato snorted.

"But Mother is going back to Great Wei, and she will definitely go to find our irresponsible father."

If you don't practice your calligraphy properly, your mother will leave you here.

Upon hearing this, Chen Chu thought, "What irresponsible father?"

She never mentioned Pei Yuan in front of the two children.

She pushed open the door and went inside.

"DouDou, GuoGuo, are you two practicing calligraphy?"

Little Potato quickly put down his pen, "Mother."

Little Apple had already rushed straight into her arms like a cannonball, hugging her legs and shaking them incessantly.

"Mother, are you going back to the Great Wei? Are you going to find that wicked father?"

Shen Chu picked her up and placed her on his lap.

"What bad daddy? What are you two talking about?"

Little Apple covered her mouth with her hand, her eyes darting around.

Shen Chu narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze shifting between the two little ones, before putting Little Apple down and speaking in a low voice.

"Speak, what are you hiding from me? How did you find out about Father?"

Little Potato tugged at her sleeve, "Uncle Yi told us secretly."

Shangguan Yi?

What did he say to you?

Little Potato said, "Uncle Yi said that Daddy is irresponsible and abandoned Mommy and us."

Little Apple: "He also said that Daddy is ugly, bad, and ugly, and that he has... what?"

"Little potato, what's that called?"

She looked at Little Potato with a bewildered expression.

Little Potato chimed in: "Cunning, ruthless, selfish and heartless."

Chen Chu.......

Pei Yuan, far away in the capital of the Great Wei, suddenly sneezed violently in a series of sneezes.
