This statement is too outrageous and too shocking.

But if you listen carefully, these words make you think deeply.

It was not until several breaths later that everyone began to look at each other.

“Miss Shen, your words are too… self-righteous.”

"Noble lady in power, no one can be completely themselves. You are not us and do not understand our difficulties. We are born with wealth and enjoyment that ordinary people can never get in this life."

"So we are not like you. We cannot abandon our family just for our own happiness."

"Whether it's marriage or sacrifice, it's a must. Generation after generation, we sacrifice for the family to ensure its prosperity for generations to come. From the moment we're born, we share the family's glory and disgrace, life and death. How can we be so selfish?"

"How can you only do it for yourself when you get the chance?"

A woman who looked a little older explained their difficulties and sorrows to Chen Wei in a somewhat stern tone.

Don’t they want to marry into a good family and marry their loved one?

But is it possible?

cannot.

They have been tools for marriage since birth.

Just like Qin Shuyu, she didn't even have the courage to divorce. No, it can't be said to be courage, it's better to say that she had no choice.

After the divorce, return to the Qin family, and then what?

Then can I stay in the mansion and live my life in peace and stability?

No, the Qin family will immediately arrange a marriage for her, because the Qin family is not only her father's family, but also has many side branches.

As long as she is alive, she is a disguised tool for the family to gain benefits. Maybe her parents and family love her, but that love is not worth mentioning compared to the family's honor and disgrace.

The other ladies' eyes might have contained helplessness, disapproval, or a calm acceptance of reality. Each person's expression was different, but none of them stood up to deny this statement.

Chen Wei looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with sadness and pity: "If the prosperity of the family requires my daughter to sacrifice her future and give up her happiness, then why not give you equal rights."

"Why do you have to sacrifice yourself, while your elder brothers can enjoy the fruits of their labor, with wives and concubines?"

"That's all."

“There are always people who want to tear open the sky and see what the distance looks like.”

Seeing the topic was getting off track, Miss Lu's heart trembled a little, and she came out to change the subject: "Okay, the weather is so nice today, let's not just stand there and chat."

“Miss Shen.”

"You are finally free today, so I can't let you go easily."

"I've heard you mention before that there are some creatures on the distant seashore, such as dolphins, crocodiles, octopuses, and sea lions. You must tell us about them today."

“.......”

Everyone became interested as they listened to these creatures they had never heard of before. They intentionally avoided the unpleasantness just now and asked Chen Wei to tell them about those sea creatures.

After the ladies left the banquet.

Some people changed their tone towards Chen Wei and began to agree with him.

As for what was said at the banquet and the performance on the stage, the noble ladies knew their limits and did not mention it to their families. They just kept saying that Chen Wei and the Marquis' Mansion had separated because they had grown tired of each other after a long time.

As for other things, not a word was mentioned.

A few days later.

In the restaurant, Xie Yuchuan was drinking with a few friends.

As close friends of Chen Wei, they were naturally the first to know about Chen Wei's departure from the Marquis' Mansion.
