Shen Ruyin's brows suddenly twitched.
She didn't want to end up in the same awkward situation as Xie Qing!
But now that she's already shown up, how could Shen Qiyin let her get away unscathed? So she said, "You're jumping out so impatiently, you must be getting impatient. Well then, come on."
Given Shen Ruyin's personality, she should be happy to perform in front of others and enjoy being admired.
For some reason, this time she seemed to radiate rejection from head to toe.
Not only her, but also Shen Mengyin.
The latter stared intently at Shen Qiyin, fearing that she might suddenly drag him into it.
As it turned out, exactly what I feared came to pass.
Shen Qiyin turned her gaze and said to Shen Mengyin with a smile, "Let Fourth Sister accompany you. I remember when we were at home, the two of you would practice together every day, and I wouldn't even be allowed to watch."
These words really piqued everyone's interest.
It's unclear what special skills these two sisters possess, as they've kept it a secret even from their elder sister, Shen Qiyin.
Chen Mengyin sat stiffly in the chair, caught in a dilemma.
My grandmother and father both said that girls are not like men, and they will not need to take the imperial examinations to become top scholars in the future. Therefore, there is no need to hire a tutor to teach them to read. It is enough for them to know a few characters so that they are not illiterate.
The only place they were willing to spend money on them was to hire someone to teach them a skill.
Chen Nianyin chose to dance.
Shen Xiyin chose to play the zither.
Shen Ruyin chose to sing a song.
She chose to play the pipa.
And all of these were means to please their husbands.
Therefore, they learned tunes that were not suitable for formal occasions.
Shen Ruyin sang erotic songs and played decadent music. If they were to perform for others in such a setting, the consequences would be no different from when Shen Ruyin and Feng Heng were caught having an affair behind Jing'an Temple.
Chenxi Marriage...
She has such a vicious mind!
Although Shen Mengyin was somewhat clever, she had little experience. After being persuaded by Shen Qiyin to come here, she became even more at a loss.
Finally, Song Lanyan spoke up to help her out of the predicament, saying, "I noticed that Miss Shen doesn't look too well. I wonder if it's because she caught a chill on her way here. Why don't you go and rest for a while?"
"...Thank you for your understanding, Miss Song."
After saying that, Shen Mengyin hurriedly followed the maid.
Once she left, and with Song Lanyan helping to smooth things over, this little incident was over.
Shen Qiyin thoughtfully picked up her teacup and took a sip of hot tea. The fine tea from a famous mountain was fragrant and its aroma wafted up, enveloping her eyes and brows.
She looked at Song Lanyan through a thin mist, her red lips curving slightly upwards.
Found it.
It turns out that the person who sent the invitation to Shen Mengyin was this Miss Song.
Before she had even finished her cup of tea, the maid from the Marquis's mansion who had just escorted Shen Mengyin to rest suddenly returned and said to her in a voice loud enough for everyone around to hear, "My lady, your younger sister is unwell and requests your presence."
