Ning Shitang's movements in disassembling the crab were indescribably elegant. He disassembled the hairy crab, placed the meat and crab legs neatly, and pushed them in front of Shen Shuyi's desk.
"Shuyi, try it."
"Okay, thank you Brother Shitang~" With Ning Shitang's support, Chen Shuyi lived very comfortably in the Ning family, without any of the restraint of an outsider.
The fresh crab meat tastes sweet and delicious.
She ate with gusto. Seeing that she liked it, Ning Shitang continued to peel shrimps and crabs for her.
Mr. Ning was so furious that he immediately called Ning Shitang to his yard after the banquet.
Ning Shitang wanted to send Shen Shuyi back first, but Shen Shuyi smiled and said, “Go quickly, I just finished eating and will take a walk.”
"Well, then I'll have someone take you there." He sent two trusted servants to follow Shen Shuyi.
She had just walked into the mansion's garden when she was almost bumped into by a drunk man.
Shen Shuyi took two steps back, and the servant stepped forward to stop the other party, “Second Young Master, are you okay?”
"Don't you have eyes? How dare you stop your master!" Ning Shicong raised his voice.
Shen Shuyi also saw the other person's face clearly. He was somewhat similar to Ning Shitang, but Ning Shitang was cold and stern. How could one describe this man... he was just romantic and hypocritical. In Shen Shuyi's eyes, he was a second-rate person whom he disdained to look at.
Ning Shicong's gaze fell on Shen Shuyi, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He had heard before that Ning Shitang brought a beautiful woman home and quarreled with his father over this beauty.
Just now at the banquet, this beauty was indeed as stunningly beautiful as the rumors said, but because of Ning Shitang, he didn't look at her for long.
Now, looking at this woman up close, she is so beautiful that it makes people hold their breath.
“Are you Miss Shen that my eldest brother brought home?”
"My eldest brother really brings any woman home... You're amazing! This is the first time he's brought a woman home. Before... they were all kept outside."
Ning Shicong's words were amusing. If others heard them, they would definitely misunderstand that Ning Shitang had hidden a lot of women.
But Chen Shuyi knew Ning Shitang inside and out, so she knew that this man was trying to sow discord between them.
Ning Shicong originally thought that he could see shock and sadness on Shen Shuyi's face, but he didn't expect that this woman was unexpectedly calm.
He sneered, "Why, you don't believe it?"
"You also noticed that there's a young woman at the banquet today, right? Her name is Tang Ying, and she's a distant cousin from my eldest brother's family."
"Father asked my cousin to come here to match her with my eldest brother, and even if you could stay at the mansion, you could only be a concubine."
Shen Shuyi frowned in confusion, but she still said calmly: "Second Young Master, I am your eldest brother's wife. Not only do you not call me sister-in-law, but you also deliberately sow discord between us. Isn't this inappropriate?"
Ning Shicong didn't expect that she looked like a vase, but he was still able to keep his composure.
Humph, that sounds nice, but who knows what kind of trouble he will cause with Ning Shitang later.
The two servants obeyed the order, not wanting Shen Shuyi to have too much contact with the people in this family, fearing that it would irritate her and give her a headache, so they mustered up the courage to speak.
"Second Young Master, we are following the orders of the eldest young master to send Miss Shen back to the courtyard. Please excuse me."
Ning Shicong took a step back, raised his hand and nodded, "Okay, in this family, the eldest brother has the final say."
Shen Shuyi listened to his sarcastic voice and thought he was sick.
Back at Begonia Garden, Shen Shuyi ate the after-dinner fruit brought by the servants.
She wanted to wait for Ning Shitang to come back before taking a nap.
"66, what's going on with Ning Shitang? Is Tang Ying really the marriage partner arranged by the Ning family?"
66, who turned into a little white cat and landed beside her, rolling a pomelo and playing with it, released a light screen: Take a look, it shouldn't be anything good.
A wealthy family like the Ning family would never accept a woman of unknown origin to become the mistress of the house in the future.
Mr. Ning sat at the top, and the second concubine and Tang Ying sat below.
Tang Ying said that she was a distant relative of Ning Shitang's mother's family, but in fact they were not related at all. The key point was that Tang Ying's family had influence in Pingzhou, and Master Ning had long wanted to bring Pingzhou under the Ning family's sphere of influence.
Nothing is safer and more cost-effective than marriage.
Tang Ying was good-looking and was sitting in a dignified cheongsam. Her eyes involuntarily looked at the man who strode in with long legs.
Cousin Shitang is becoming more and more handsome...
Ning Shitang only looked at his father, "Dad, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Sit down and talk." Mr. Ning was already very dissatisfied with him.
The eldest son seemed to be possessed when he came back this time. Although the father and son were not close before, they were not incompatible.
This time, the situation became tense after just a few words. Could it be that vixen is sowing discord among them?
She's already causing unrest in the house before she even steps foot in. Wouldn't that be outrageous to let her in?!
Ning Shitang sat down, took a sip of tea calmly, and waited for the old man to speak.
Master Ning's expression softened slightly, and he winked at Tang Ying, "Shitang, this is your cousin Ying'er. You two played together when you were little."
"Ying'er, go sit next to your cousin. It's a rare opportunity for you to come to Ningzhou City. Let your cousin take you out to play later."
Tang Ying stood up, but her face turned red before she walked towards Ning Shitang, and she called out weakly.
"Cousin Shitang..."
Ning Shitang just nodded lightly without looking at Tang Ying. He already had feelings for her and would never even glance at other women.
Seeing that he looked just as dead as before when faced with pressure to get married, Mr. Ning was so angry that he spoke directly.
"You're not young anymore. I think Ying'er is well-educated and well-mannered, and comes from a clean family. She's a perfect match for you. Find a time to propose to the Tang family."
Tang Ying looked at Ning Shitang with a fluttering heart.
