But now, I feel that those friends are not that important.
But there is one thing that still needs to be resolved.
"Dad, should the marriage with the Yue family be given to my sister?" After all, the Yue family and the Shen family married because Shen Baozhu was the only daughter of the Shen family.
Now that the real daughter is back, it's naturally not right for her, the fake one, to steal her sister's fiancé.
Shen Changming frowned. He had never thought about this before. He had been immersed in the joy of finding his child and had neglected marriage.
Changsheng: "No, the marriage was agreed between the Yue family's child and Sister Baozhu. If they want to cancel the engagement now because of Sister Baozhu's identity, it's okay, but they can't change the person." Our family is not cabbage and radish, how can we let people pick and choose at will.
Chen Baozhu was actually a little nervous. She and Yue Chu had been engaged since childhood. Yue Chu was the only son of the Yue family and was also one of the most handsome men in the circle. It would be a lie to say that she didn't admire him.
But she felt that her current status was not worthy of Yue Chu, and she couldn't easily get the Yue family to accept her just by saying she liked her.
Yue Chu's mother is not a good person. She used to be the only daughter of the Shen family, and her mother valued her very much. Now she is just an adopted daughter of the Shen family. It is conceivable that her mother would look down on her.
She was also unsure of Yue Chu's thoughts. She had been back for half a month, and Yue Chu hadn't asked her out for a chat. He had only asked about the situation via WeChat when the incident happened and offered a few words of comfort.
"What does Baozhu think?" Grandpa Shen asked his eldest granddaughter.
Changsheng doesn't seem to have that intention, so it depends on whether Baozhu still wants to continue the engagement.
"I, I..." Baozhu felt a little embarrassed. She blushed a little as she talked about this important matter with the whole family staring at her. But looking at Changsheng's bright eyes, she felt the urge to confide again. "If you had asked me yesterday, I would definitely not have wanted to give up this marriage to the Yue family. Everyone in the circle knows that I'm the adopted daughter of the Shen family. If I find another partner, it will definitely not be as good as Yue Chu. But today, I feel that I am still a part of this family. Even if Yue Chu is gone, I will meet a good person."
"Good girl, you are worthy of being the eldest granddaughter of my Shen family." Grandpa Shen rarely praises children, not to mention that he knew before that Shen Baozhu was not his own flesh and blood.
"No regrets?" Shen Changming confirmed. Shen Baozhu was right. It would not be easy to find a family with a similar background as the Yue family in the future.
"No regrets." Shen Baozhu confirmed again.
When Wan Yunhua came back from outside, she heard that several people in her family had cancelled Shen Baozhu's marriage. She was so angry. She felt that the men of the Shen family wanted to keep the good things for their own flesh and blood, and it didn't mean that the adopted daughter was taking advantage of the Shen family.
But thinking about her mother-in-law's heartfelt talk in the garden, she endured it. After all, the marriage had not been cancelled, and she still had a chance!
Afterwards, she secretly thanked herself for not acting impulsively, otherwise she would have hurt her little daughter's feelings.
She thought that the drama of two women fighting for one man did not happen.
It’s just that the Yue family has a subtle sense of disdain for Baozhu.
Could Wan Yunhua tolerate this? Yue's mother usually looked down on her as a housewife. During gatherings, she would mock her for always supporting her husband and son and having no opinions of her own.
Now that she knew that Yue's mother had always looked down on her Baozhu in private, why should she keep this marriage going?
Retreat, you must retreat!
Well, if all seven members of the family are against this marriage, then let’s start by slowly dividing the businesses of both parties.
When the Shen family proposed to cancel the engagement and the Yue family wanted to take advantage of the Shen family, they suddenly realized that the cooperation between the two families had unknowingly become no longer evenly matched. It was time for the Shen family to get rid of the burden of the Yue family.
"What's going on? When the youngest daughter of the Shen family returned to her ancestral home, didn't I tell you to find more opportunities to get in touch with her?" Yue's father questioned Yue Chu.
"The youngest daughter of the Shen family is either in school or in the old house of the Shen family. I am also engaged to Shen Baozhu, and Shen Baozhu is not in the country, so it is not easy for me to go find her directly." I have encountered this kind of thing by chance before, but I didn't see anyone.
"I should have asked the Shen family earlier to continue the engagement and change the bride." Yue's father was now extremely regretful. It was all Yue's mother's fault. She looked down on Shen Baozhu's status as an adopted daughter and also looked down on Shen Changsheng for growing up in a poor family and having a petty mindset. This was why Yue's father hadn't made up his mind yet. Similarly, Yue Chu was also somewhat wavering.
If you ask him whether he likes Shen Baozhu, it’s not that he hates her. After all, the two of them had been engaged a long time ago. If nothing unexpected happens, the marriage between the two families will be a win-win situation.
But it's not to the point that he has to marry her. There are many beautiful women in and out of the circle, and Shen Baozhu is not the only one.
"Dad, what should we do now?"
"Let's talk to the head of the Shen family first, and then see." He still wanted to change people. He accidentally heard from a friend that the idiot Shen Changming actually left a large amount of property to Shen Changsheng, and his biological son and adopted daughter got very little.
If someone marries Shen Changsheng, it would be like marrying a golden baby home.
Although their family is not short of those oddballs, there are too many interests represented by Shen Changsheng.
Heart-beating!
Shen Baozhu's graduation and return to China to enter the entertainment industry was also a major event for the Shen family.
Moreover, my daughter Shen Changsheng relied on herself and got a place as an exchange student at school to study abroad for a year.
Since it was a happy occasion, the Shen family decided to hold a business reception so that people in the circle could formally get to know Shen Changsheng. When they first met, Changsheng didn't want to attend such a party, and Wan Yunhua was also worried that Changsheng was not familiar with the etiquette and was afraid of losing face. Changsheng was even more reluctant to get involved in that circle in the future, so he kept putting it off.
At the reception, Shen Changming publicly introduced his daughters and announced the cancellation of the marriage proposal with the Yue family. The reasons were: first, the eldest daughter was an adopted daughter, which was not in the interests of the Yue family; second, the youngest daughter was unfamiliar with Yue Chu, and they had no childhood friendship, so forcing them together was inappropriate.
Yue's father secretly resented that Shen Changming was too cunning. He simply hadn't found an opportunity to fight the Shen family these days.
Yue Chu had only recently learned that his father had several illegitimate children. He had previously thought that marrying into the Shen family was a powerful alliance, but now he realized that he was marrying above his station and needed the Shen family's support.
No matter whether it was Shen Baozhu or Shen Changsheng, as long as he could marry either of them, he would get the support of the Shen family.
When he looked at Shen Baozhu's circle of friends before, he saw that she always posted some seemingly plausible content and intentionally or unintentionally belittled Shen Changsheng, which made him think that Shen Baozhu was being excluded in the Shen family and Shen Changsheng was also a Cinderella who was not worthy of being on the stage.
But looking at this family again today, he realized that he had been deceived. Even his father was affected, otherwise the Shen family would not have been able to separate the two families' deeply involved businesses so smoothly.
