Chapter 324 Scandal (6)
“I also think this matter is suspicious,” Shen Miao raised an eyebrow, “So let’s report it to the authorities. Dad, your men are quick, and we still have time to go to Jingzhao Yin.”
Before he finished speaking, he heard Shen Gui shout, "No!"
Shen Miao was surprised: "Why is it not working again?"
Chen Gui glared at her fiercely. If the matter was reported to the authorities, there would be no way to conceal it. The imperial censors in the court were very idle every day. If they knew about this matter, it would be strange if they didn't report him. Besides, it was a scandal after all. What good would it do to let everyone know?
“Forget it,” Shen Miao waved her hands with a headache, “After all, this matter still depends on what my cousin thinks.” She looked at Jing Guansheng, who had a gloomy and uncertain expression, and smiled slightly, “My cousin is the one who is most heartbroken.”
Jing Guansheng didn't say anything.
Old Madam Shen said angrily, "Let's get a doctor first!" Jing Chuchu and Shen Yuan hadn't made any movement, and she was afraid they were being plotted against. Old Madam Shen was filled with rage. She knew that everything that happened today should have been Shen Qiu's fault, but now it was Shen Yuan's fault. But she couldn't say anything.
Chen Ruoqiu was busy arranging the affairs of the ladies. Those ladies had seen enough of the show, knowing that today was just a battle between Shen Miao and the rest of the Shen family, but in the end, Shen Miao had won. They repeatedly promised not to tell anyone and then took their leave. Feng Anning winked at Shen Miao and followed Madam Feng out. Shen Yue looked at the messy courtyard, feeling quite disappointed.
It was just a little bit away from destroying Shenqiu, why did it end up becoming Shenyuan?
Shen Xin and the others followed Madam Shen to the main hall. This matter had to be dealt with somehow. Furthermore, since it concerned the Shen family's reputation and there were so many people watching, it was no longer something that could be resolved with a small fight.
Shen Miao was walking at the end when she was suddenly called to stop. She turned around and saw that it was Jing Guansheng who walked in front of her.
Shen Miao was small, and the thorn crown was slightly plump and tall. Standing in front of Shen Miao, he was quite oppressive. The usual smile on his usually gentle and amiable face was gone, and what remained was only a vicious and gloomy look, like a wolf in sheep's clothing revealing its true face. He said: "Fifth sister, you did this, didn't you?"
“Yes,” Shen Miao admitted readily.
Unexpectedly forcing Shen Miao to say this, Jing Guansheng was stunned for a moment, then angrily raised his fist and was about to swing at Shen Miao. Jingzhe and Guyu quickly blocked his attack, but Shen Miao looked at him coldly, "I did it, what can you do to me?"
"You are shameless!" Jing Guansheng growled.
"I am the shameless one?" Shen Miao looked at him: "Cousin, do you dare to say that you are unaware of what happened today?"
Jing Guansheng was stunned and glared at him. As Jing Chuchu's brother, how could Jing Guansheng not know what Old Lady Shen was planning? Letting Jing Chuchu become Shen Qiu's wife would have been beneficial to him, but who knew that in the end it would become Shen Yuan!
“You let your own sister become a bargaining chip, and now you say I’m shameless, cousin, don’t you think you’re too disgusting?” Shen Miao laughed.
"you!"
"The matter is already settled, cousin, you might as well think about it in another way." Shen Miao looked at him calmly, "Cousin, you have already lost your innocence in front of so many people. If you want to marry a good family and become a bargaining chip for cousin in the future, it will be very difficult. Who would want to marry a slut?"
Her words were vicious, and Jing Guansheng clenched his fists, but he had to admit that Shen Miao was right. He now understood what it meant to lose both the wife and the army. With Jing Chuchu becoming like this, no good family would want her in the future, let alone a wealthy family.
"Cousin, since we're cousins, I'll give you a heads up." Shen Miao smiled warmly, "Actually, as long as you marry into the Shen family, you'll be considered high-flying. In that case, what's the difference between marrying the eldest brother and the second brother?"
Jing Guansheng’s heart moved, and he looked at Shen Miao without saying a word.
"Speaking of which, my second brother also entered the government at a young age and has a bright future ahead of him. Compared to my eldest brother, he's still a better person. Since you're both planning to trade your younger sister for your future, and the person in my bed has become my second brother, then why not change from being my eldest sister-in-law to my second sister-in-law? It won't hurt you either."
She looked at her nails, not knowing to whom she was speaking: "As a person, you must learn to adapt."
