Chapter 202 Marry Far Away
Shen Luoyun also joined in.
"Father, my eldest sister is not seeing anyone right now. She's been cooped up in her room for so long, and it's not good for her. I'll have dinner with you later, and then I'll go and try to persuade her."
Chenzhoufu thought about how his second daughter had been frequently visiting the Jun family these days, and had become good friends with Madam Jun. She even joined the Jun family in teaching the people how to grow mushrooms. Many people praised Shen Luoyun, and their expressions improved when they saw Shen Luoyun.
"You are a sensible person. If your elder sister were as sensible as you, she wouldn't have to worry so much about your father."
Shen Luoyun listened and spoke obediently.
"My aunt has taught me since I was little that you are the father of the people. As your daughter, you must be extra careful with your words and actions. Even if you can't help me, you can't do anything to discredit me. So, I have been careful with my words and actions over the years, hoping not to cause trouble for you."
Seeing Shen Luoyun being so well-behaved, and thinking about Shen Luoxue's performance recently, Shenzhoufu felt extremely disappointed.
"Your aunt taught you very well, but your eldest sister is so disappointing."
Madam Shen hurriedly pinched her palms and spoke.
"Master, Luoxue is just still hurt. After all, such a big thing happened, the child is still fine. It's a blessing. After all, she is our own child and our first daughter. Master, please be tolerant of her."
Chenzhoufu was filled with impatience after hearing this. It had been more than a month, and he had been persuaded, but he still looked like he was dying.
Seeing the impatience on Chenzhoufu’s face, Zishu spoke softly.
"Master, Madam is right. We should give Miss more time. But more than a month has passed, and Miss has been missing. I heard that she's eating less and has lost a lot of weight. If this continues, Miss has been pampered since she was a child. How can she endure this?"
Seeing that Chenzhoufu's face was not angry.
Zishu continued to speak.
"Master, I see the young lady like this, and it hurts my heart. I have something to say, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."
Mrs. Shen looked at Zishu and felt extremely angry.
"Since you don't know whether you should say it or not, then don't say it anymore. A concubine should just serve the master at the table. But you are discussing the affairs of a legitimate daughter. You really have no manners at all."
Seeing this, Shen Luoyun reached out and pulled Aunt Liu's clothes.
Aunt Liu understood and spoke in a weak tone.
"Madam, Sister Zishu is new and not familiar with the rules of the mansion yet, so please don't bother with her. But what Sister Zishu said is not without reason. If the young lady continues like this, her health will be damaged in the future. It's better to listen to what Sister Zishu has to say. After all, she is wrong, and it's not too late for you to reprimand her."
Mrs. Shen wanted to say something when she heard it, but Shenzhoufu had already spoken.
"Zi Shu, just say whatever you want to say. In the Shen family, you are free to speak."
After hearing this, Zishu looked cautious, glanced at Madam Shen, and then spoke softly.
"Master, my family hired a groom for me when I was young. I know the saying that a heart disease needs a heart medicine. My eldest daughter was plotted against by a bad guy on the street, and the Gu family took advantage of her misfortune and canceled the marriage, causing my eldest daughter to lose face for the second time. I think that for the time being, it would be better to find a new marriage for my eldest daughter. Maybe my eldest daughter will feel better and be able to meet people again."
Mrs. Shen scoffed when she heard this.
"How can a concubine dare to discuss the eldest lady's marriage? The eldest lady's marriage is naturally decided by this lady and the master. This lady thinks that Concubine Zi has been spoiled by the master recently and has forgotten the rules."
When Zishu heard this, she quickly spoke in a wronged tone.
"Master, I didn't mean to upset Madam. I was just worried about the young lady's health, so I couldn't help but say something. If what I said is wrong, please punish me, Master and Madam. I accept the punishment."
Aunt Liu glanced at Madam Shen and spoke respectfully and carefully.
"Madam, Sister Zishu is just worried about the eldest lady, so why are you speaking so harshly? The eldest lady is now locking herself in the yard every day, which is really worrying.
These days, I have seen the master go to the eldest lady's courtyard several times to visit, but the eldest lady always shuts the door and refuses to see him. I feel sorry for the master's love for his daughter."
Chenzhoufu looked at Madam Shen with a gloomy face, and then looked at the two concubines who understood the language of flowers, and became dissatisfied with Madam Shen in his heart.
"Alright, stop showing off your wife's power. If you have time, you should spend more time teaching the child. Luoxue has indeed become a little spoiled by you."
Then he looked at Zishu and spoke soothingly.
"The master is here, no one dares to do anything to you. But the eldest lady's marriage you mentioned, Miss, you know the current situation, I'm afraid there is no suitable family."
Zishu listened and spoke gently.
"Thank you, sir."
Then he seemed to remember something and spoke.
"Master, the eldest lady is here, it is indeed... ...I think it would be better to let the eldest lady marry far away, and the mansion can prepare more dowry for her. Once she is married, with the care of her husband, I believe the eldest lady will slowly untie the knot in her heart."
