Chapter 1080 The Taste is Hard to Understand
Sheng Ze immediately pulled Shen Qingqian and pulled her to the big banyan tree in Qinglan Courtyard.
Shen Qingqian's face was a little gloomy, and the conversation between the two maids continued.
"Sister Yun, I really didn't mean it. Isn't today Madam's birthday? The master is here, so I just wanted to mention it. After all, who among us doesn't like their own family? I didn't remember that Madam is different from us."
"Alas, I feel sorry for Madam. Ever since the incident at the Shen family, the master has stopped coming to Madam's room. It's not easy for her either."
"Okay, I'll be more careful next time. Let's go back to the house and I'll put some medicine on my face."
The two maids disappeared quickly, but Shen Qingqian on the tree remained motionless for a long time.
In Shen Qingqian's memory, Shen Qinglan was the eldest daughter of the Shen family's generation. She was born a favored daughter of heaven and had high demands on herself. She was better than most noble ladies in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, songs, housework and needlework.
Therefore, Shen Qinglan was not very satisfied with her marriage. Especially as the Rongguang Marquis Mansion gradually declined, her desire to cancel the engagement became more and more obvious.
Unfortunately, Master Shen has always been a man of his word. Since he has made an engagement with the Rongguang Marquisate, he will not regret it no matter what.
Shen Qinglan married into the Rongguang Marquis's mansion with resentment, but after she got married, she didn't show any of it at all. She and the Rongguang Marquis's son got along very well, which made others envious for a while.
Everyone in the Shen family also thought that she was living a good life in the Rongguang Marquis Mansion, and no one doubted it.
At this moment, inside Shen Qinglan's room, a dim candlelight shone on her expressionless face.
Shen Qinglan held a pair of scissors in his hand and picked out a piece of bright silk from the sewing basket. Without blinking, he cut with the scissors, and the beautiful Baoxiang flower on the silk was torn.
There was no emotion in her eyes, but deep down she was suppressing hatred.
She knew back then that Rongguang Houfu was not a good match, but the Shen family forced her to marry in for the sake of their own reputation.
Since she married into the family, she naturally had to make plans for the Marquis' Mansion. Originally, everything was going in the direction she planned, but everything was ruined again by the Shen family.
Why did they support the former crown prince? Didn't his grandfather claim to be the most learned man in Jin? Why did he have such poor vision? Didn't he see the potential of the current emperor?
On the day the Shen family was exiled, the prince packed a lot of things for her and asked her to take them to the Shen family, but she just took the package and went out, standing quietly on the corner of the street, watching the Shen family being exiled.
She couldn't even hide from her parents' home, so how could she possibly go and see them off?
But the affairs of the Shen family still affected her. The prince of Rongguanghou began to take concubines, and from then on he never entered her house again, so she now has no children.
Shen Qinglan smiled at the newcomers day after day. Although she was now the mistress of the house and had no illegitimate children, she had really had enough of these dry days!
With a "snap", the scissors were slammed heavily on the cage.
Shen Qinglan stood up expressionlessly, went to bed, lay down, pulled the quilt over him, and closed his eyes.
Sitting under the banyan tree outside the house, Shen Qingqian felt a strange feeling in her heart.
Sheng Ze squeezed her hand and whispered, "Let's go back to the inn first."
The two returned to the inn under the cover of night.
Shen Qingqian suddenly said, "How could Big Sister become like this?"
She remembered that the Shen family had never been stingy or harsh with her sisters and treated each of them equally.
But it was obvious that Shen Qinglan had forgotten his roots.
