Song Yao raised her head confidently: "Sister-in-law, am I not your sister?"
Shen Ruyun almost laughed. First, she was annoyed by Song Hengchuan's lack of common sense; second, she laughed at Song Yao's shamelessness; and third, she hated herself for being blind to have fallen for someone like Song Hengchuan.
Seeing the unfriendly look in his wife's eyes, Song Hengchuan felt a little uncomfortable and said in a low voice, "Yaoyao is my beloved younger sister since childhood. How can I bear to see her suffer? Ruyun, I will definitely treat you well in the future."
Shen Ruyun felt disgusted by these words. She took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Giving my third sister's dowry has nothing to do with anything else. It's just that the dowry that the Duke of Jingguo's mansion gave to the Shen family used up the dowry that my mother left for her. So I returned it to its rightful owner. Husband, my second sister's dowry should be arranged by Aunt Yuan and Grandmother. Besides, didn't the Prince of Zhennan's mansion give a batch of dowry as a thank you gift? Does my second sister want to outdo Zhao Qingyan?"
Song Hengchuan choked on his words.
The matter of the betrothal gifts was left unclear and unresolved, and ultimately he was in the wrong.
“If sister-in-law is unwilling, I will not force her. It was me, I was presumptuous, and mistakenly thought that I could be like my third sister.” Song Yao sniffed and knelt down in front of Song Hengchuan with a wronged expression: “Brother, I’m fine. Don’t make things unpleasant with sister-in-law over such a small matter. I shouldn’t have come.”

"Yao Yao!" Song Hengchuan chased after her.
Shen Ruyun rubbed her temples, looking annoyed. The maid beside her said, "Young Madam, why is the eldest young master so concerned about a half-sister? If he had left half of his attention to the third young lady, the princess wouldn't have neglected the eldest young master like this."
That's right. If she cared about Song Yue, she wouldn't have gone to Yuehua Pavilion every day to please her.
Only when you can't rely on anyone else can you rely on yourself.
"Let her be." Shen Ruyun shrugged; giving her a dowry was out of the question.
