Chapter 4: The Adultery



Shen Yue was not familiar with her, she only knew that she was the cousin of the Su family. Upon hearing this, she quickly ordered the maid beside her, "Take the cousin of the Su family to the guest room to rest and take good care of her."

The maid took Cheng Ruijin away, leaving only Shen Yue and Su Qingyu in the room.

Su Qingyu lowered her eyes and looked a little cold. In her previous life, she didn't notice anything unusual about Chen Zhao. Chen Zhao sat here for half an hour before leaving, and Cheng Ruijin also said she felt dizzy after Shen Zhao left.

When she saw Cheng Ruijin again, it was at a banquet two hours later, and by that time, the date of her and Shen Zhao's wedding had already been set.

Shen Yue was feeling a little down. She took Su Qingyu's hand and said, "Sister Su, how could my Third Uncle be gone? He was the most talented person I knew. He was brilliant and capable of governing a country. God is truly blind."

Su Qingyu patted her hand and comforted her, "You should also be more considerate. You need to take care of the old lady. I see that she has become much more haggard. This blow is too great for her."

Shen Yue nodded and said, "Isn't it? Before, the burden of the family was all on Uncle San. Now that Uncle San is gone, although the family is not in chaos, I think..."

Shen Yue stopped talking and Su Qingyu changed the subject at the right time.

After another half hour, Su Qingyu calculated that the time was almost up and suddenly spoke.

"My grandmother said that she might let me marry the eldest young master, Re Xiaozhong. I have something to ask him, but I forgot just now."

Shen Yue winked playfully when she heard this and said, "This is not difficult to handle. Let's go to the study to find him."

Su Qingyu sat up straight and asked, "Is that okay? Wouldn't that be against etiquette?" Then she said, "How about this? We go and tell the old lady and ask her to send two maids to follow him. We'll just pretend we're just passing by, and I'll just ask him a few questions."

Shen Yue's eyes lit up, "That's good. If you observe the etiquette like this, grandma will definitely approve."

Su Qingyu did this to get Shen Yue out of this matter.

If she wanted to catch an adulterer, she had to have a witness, but Shen Yue was an unmarried girl, and if she really testified for her, her reputation would be ruined.

The maidservant beside Old Madam Shen is the most suitable candidate.

Sure enough, not long after, Shen Yue came over with two maids and said to Su Qingyu, "These two are Aunt Zhao and Aunt Hua. Come with us to tour the house."

Su Qingyu said politely, "Excuse me, Madams."

She knew that these two were the maids who were respected by Old Madam Shen, and their influence was enough.

The two maids politely returned the greeting and took Su Qingyu and Shen Yue towards Shen Zhao's study.

The Shen family was wealthy, and their garden was magnificent and exquisite. They walked around the garden pavilion, then through the rockery and plum forest before arriving outside Shen Zhao's study.

The two servants guarding the study door were so frightened when they saw a group of people coming that they wanted to report the news but dared not make a sound.

"Madam Hua, why are you here? The eldest young master... the eldest young master is not in the study. If you have anything to say, please tell me first." The servant Yuanbao stepped forward smartly and said with a smile, raising his voice deliberately.

Aunt Hua frowned and said, "What's going on? Where is the eldest young master?"

Those who can serve Madam Shen are all very experienced and can tell at a glance that something is wrong.

Nanny Hua and Nanny Zhao looked at each other suspiciously, but before they could react, an unbearable sound came from the study.

"Brother Shen Zhao, do you really want to... marry her? It's me you love."

"Good sister, I must marry her. Her uncle's family is a royal merchant family and will be of great use to me."

What followed was intermittent moans and the man's dirty talk.

Everyone in the yard was stunned. Su Qingyu sneered in her heart. It was the first time she had heard Shen Zhao's voice like this. She suddenly felt a little relieved. She was relieved that Shen Zhao had always claimed that he was impotent and they had not consummated their marriage. Otherwise, she would be disgusted to death.

The two maids' expressions changed, and they hurriedly said, "Young ladies, please go out first."

Su Qingyu looked at Aunt Hua, her eyes misty, her face filled with shock and anger.

Then she turned around and left quickly, still crying.

The two maids knew that this matter would not end well, so they quickly took Shen Yue with them and followed behind.

But Su Qingyu walked quickly and entered Qingyuanju first.

As soon as she entered the banquet hall, she threw herself into Old Madam Su's arms, "Grandma, wuwuwuwu, I won't get married."

When she cried, the two old ladies in the room and the eldest lady Chen were stunned.

Madam Su asked quickly, "What's going on? What happened?"

Su Qingyu was crying so hard that she couldn't speak. Fortunately, two maids came in soon.

Madam Hua signaled the maids in the room to leave first, then whispered, "Madam, Madam, the eldest young master is in the study... and has consummated his marriage with a young girl."

"I didn't dare to disturb them, as I didn't know who was inside. The eldest daughter of the Su family happened to pass by and overheard everything."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room changed their expressions.

Old Madam Su frowned and said nothing, but looked at Old Madam Shen, obviously wanting to see how the Shen family would explain the matter.

She gently stroked Su Qingyu's back with one hand, then helped her up and wiped the tears from her face.

Su Qingyu's crying was not fake. She was crying for her ignorance in her previous life and for the carefreeness in this life.

She raised her head and glanced at Madam Shen. The old lady was obviously angry and shouted, "Go and bring those two beasts to me. I will personally ask Shen Zhao how they dared to do such a treasonous thing."

If it weren't for Mr. Shen Sanye's funeral today, Su Qingyu wouldn't have run into it. This matter is the smallest matter in the Shen family.
