Chapter 24 The Second Master Stays in Aunt Shen's Room Tonight
When Luo Zhen's dowry was carried into Pei's house like water, Pei Duan's eyes widened.
"My goodness, the sandalwood box is covered with gold horns. Look at me, this box alone is worth most of your dowry. Why did I marry a woman like you in the first place?"
Zhou's eyes were glued to the boxes that were being lifted over and over again. She snorted, "You think my dowry is too little? Don't you see what your family was like back then, and what you're like now? I was able to marry you because your ancestors were very successful, and now I'm living a good life thanks to my second uncle. And you're still that rotten piece of shit, and you still think I'm wrong?"
"Don't force me to beat you on my second brother's wedding day!" Pei Duan glared and said angrily in a low voice, "No matter how useless I am, everything you eat and use is paid for by my family. Even with your small dowry, you look at it like an eyeball. Who has ever seen you? If you really have a backbone, don't spend my family's money!"
Zhou Shi was not angry either. Her eyes were still glued to Luo Zhen's dowry. She said slowly, "Why can't I use your family's money? I gave birth to a son and a daughter for your family. Even in mother's eyes, I am a great contributor to your Pei family. Why can't I use your family's money? Besides, this money is not earned by you, it is all earned by Second Uncle. You go out to seek pleasure and spend Second Uncle's money and rely on his influence. Don't you have the face to criticize me!"
Pei Duan was so angry that he jumped up and down, but he didn't dare to make a fuss.
Pei Ji’s warning to him last time was still fresh in his mind.
Although the bride has changed, this Miss Luo is not the one he likes.
But Pei Ji's attitude was still unclear, and he didn't dare to act presumptuously.
I could only hold my anger and leave.
Zhou had long regarded him as dead.
The real pillar of the Pei family is Pei Ji.
Although Pei Ji is the second son of the Pei family, he has the demeanor of a patriarch.
He cared about Pei Duan, who was such a bad guy. As his eldest sister-in-law, and the one who gave birth to a pair of daughters for their Pei family, he would definitely not ignore her.
Then why should she care about such a bad guy?
Zhou stared at the piles of dowry.
If you have the time, you might as well get more from your mother-in-law, sister-in-law, Chen Zhirou and this new Miss Luo who just came in!
Luo Zhen was praying in the front hall at this time.
Xu sat at the top, and although she disliked Luo Zhen because of what happened last time she went to Luo's house, on this happy day, seeing her second son finally get married, and the daughter-in-law's family was rich and powerful, and the dowry was generous, she was smiling from ear to ear.
Pei Yu and Shen Zhirou stood in the crowd on both sides.
Pei Yu stared at the phoenix coronet and bridal robe revealed from under the bride's red veil, his eyes full of envy and desire.
She secretly decided in her heart that she would dress like this when she got married.
Chen Zhirou was also looking at Luo Zhen's phoenix crown and bridal robe.
In this life, she will never have the chance to wear a phoenix crown and marry her cousin openly.
But she has become her cousin's concubine.
She was already very satisfied that what she had been hoping for had been achieved.
She is not greedy either.
Luo Zhen is not Luo Fu.
Whether it is marrying my cousin openly or becoming his concubine.
Good days are waiting for her in the future.
After the wedding ceremony, Luo Zhen was led to the bridal chamber by the matchmaker and the maid.
Without waiting for the matchmaker to finish her auspicious words, Luo Zhen sent her away and then lifted the veil.
Her eyes swept across the furnishings in the room inch by inch, as if she was looking at the Kunde Hall where the queen lived, with an unconcealable smile and greed on her face.
She finally married Pei Ji!
The throne of queen will finally be hers!
As the mother of the country and the most beautiful woman in the world, she is about to become the most envied person by all women in the world!
Isn’t my uncle’s family always high and mighty?
Didn’t my eldest cousin marry into a wealthy family in Beijing?
Isn’t the second cousin always domineering in front of her?
Oh.
Then, she will make them all kneel before her!
Luo Zhen's face was full of ecstasy, but the four maids standing on her left and right were full of worry.
The four of them looked at each other and signaled to Cailu with their eyes: You knew it first, you tell the girl!
Cai Lu had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Miss..."
Luo Zhen was in a good mood now. Hearing this, he looked at her with a smile: "What's wrong?"
Cai Lu stammered, "Just now I heard from the maid outside that my son-in-law has a cousin..."
Luo Zhen smiled slightly coldly: "I know, what are you talking about on her wedding day?"
It turns out the girl knew!
Cailu was already upset and quickly admitted her mistake.
The other three maids didn't dare to mention it anymore and hurriedly told other jokes to cheer Luo Zhen up.
The five masters and servants chatted and laughed until the moon rose above the willow trees.
The atmosphere in the bridal chamber was already making people feel uneasy.
The head maid Qiu Wen forced a smile and said, "Miss, the Second Master must have gotten drunk outside. Would you like me to go out and take a look?"
Luo Zhen's face didn't look good.
She came in in the afternoon. It was already late and the guests outside should have left.
But Pei Ji never came in once!
She knew that he didn't like her, but this was their wedding night and she was his legitimate wife who was carried in through the main gate!
Couldn't he even give her this little respect?
She was unhappy in her heart, but she said virtuously: "Go, don't rush the Second Master."
Qiuwen responded and went out to the front yard.
The guests had indeed dispersed.
She found a cleaning woman and asked, "Where is the Second Master?"
The old woman said, "The Second Master just returned."
Just got back?
Then why didn’t she meet him along the way?
Qiuwen was a little confused and turned back.
There are only Luo Zhen and a few others in the bridal chamber.
Seeing her come back, Cai Lu hurriedly asked, "Where is the Second Master?"
Qiu Wen also asked, "Hasn't the Second Master come back yet?"
As she was speaking, a maid came in and bowed, saying, "Second Madam, the Second Master sent me here to tell you that he will be staying in Concubine Shen's room tonight. Please go to bed and don't wait for him."
…………
As the maid finished speaking, the room fell into deathly silence.
The four maids around Luo Zhen all looked very unhappy.
They all knew clearly who this Aunt Shen was.
This is what they wanted to tell Luo Zhen just now.
I thought taking a concubine before marriage was uncomfortable enough, but I didn't expect that the girl would be left alone in the empty room on the wedding night. Isn't this clearly telling everyone that the girl is not loved by her husband?
How am I going to live the rest of my life?
The maid left after delivering the message.
Qiu Wen and her four maids looked at Luo Zhen's face and said, "Miss..."
Luo Zhen's nails had sunk deep into her palms.
She doesn't care whether Pei Ji likes her or not, but she can't ignore her face!
Aunt Shen?
You're talking about Shen Zhirou, right?
Is this my aunt?
That is to say, before she even got married, Pei Ji had already promoted her to concubine!
On their wedding night, he even stayed in her room!
This is simply not giving her face!
Anger made Luo Zhen's face turn red.
The previous pride and endless imagination have now disappeared.
In addition to anger, there was also a faint fear in her heart.
Pei Ji was so disrespectful to her. When he ascends the throne in the future, will he not give her the position of queen?
Luo Zhen couldn't help but feel anxious when she thought of this possibility.
No, impossible!
She was married into the Pei family through a formal marriage.
She is his legitimate wife!
She is virtuous and kind, respectful to her mother-in-law, brother and sister-in-law, and protective of her younger sister-in-law. She also has a legitimate son, so no one can find fault with her!
Even if Pei Ji had that intention, the gossips of the people in the harem and the court would not let him get his wish!
Thinking of this, Luo Zhen gradually calmed down.
Besides, Pei Ji did this only because he couldn't marry that stupid girl Luo Fu, and he was angry with her.
Who the hell is Shen Zhirou?
Is he worthy of her attention?
There is still a long time to go, and Pei Ji's friendship with Luo Fu will eventually fade away.
He will know that she is his first wife!
She is his legal wife who supported him, helped him ascend the throne, and accompanied him throughout his life!
She is his irreplaceable queen!
As for now, she just needs to be a virtuous wife, a daughter-in-law who respects her mother-in-law, brothers and sisters-in-law, and cares for her younger sister-in-law.
Pei Ji always came to her room.
She will always have her own legitimate son.
As for Shen Zhirou……
If this bitch dares to get pregnant before her, she will make her life a living hell!
