(Girls' Literature)

ps: The second update will probably be around 12 o'clock, so you can read it tomorrow.

Su Zhi listened to Shen Zhu's request and raised her eyebrows slightly, wondering why Shen Zhu was so abnormal today. She usually seldom asked her for things in person, as if she always maintained a sense of self-esteem in front of her. Of course, if she really liked something, she would tactfully ask to exchange it with something of hers, and Su Zhi naturally would not take her things. In the end, Su Zhi naturally gave the things to her, and Shen Zhu also felt very proud.

Asking for things directly like today and insisting on getting what she wants has already reached the point of not caring about her face, which can't help but make Su Zhi feel that Shen Zhu is abnormal.

Thinking of how Shen Zhu had been looking at her with a strange look just now, Su Zhi then thought of the question she had asked herself about whitening, and she understood a little bit. Did Shen Zhu want to become like her? Or did she want to be as white and fragrant as her? Before this, Shen Zhu had not been so enthusiastic!

There is only one reason why a woman would suddenly pay attention to her appearance: women dress up to please themselves, that is, for men!

Su Zhi thought that Qian Guang was Shen Zhu's favorite matchmaker, and thinking of Qian Guang's feelings for her, she couldn't help but wonder if Shen Zhu had seen through something? Otherwise, why did she suddenly want to ask her for the whitening medicine and fragrant rice? And her strange look.

"Wait a moment, I'll get it for you."

Su Zhi smiled, asked Shen Zhu to wait, and went into the inner room.

Su Zhi would naturally not give Shen Zhu any share of the Lotus Fragrance rice. She thought that if Shen Zhu suspected that Qian Guang was interested in her, it was just a suspicion. If Shen Zhu saw a hint of Qian Guang's special feelings for Lotus Fragrance on his face, it might confirm her suspicion, and she would probably be dissatisfied with her sister-in-law, right? Shen Zhu was not a very tolerant and kind girl. Su Zhi had seen it a long time ago. If this girl became ruthless, she would be no worse than those girls who were fighting at home. Even if she would not take her own life. She would be annoyed if she always looked gloomy when she saw her in the future. Especially, she did not want more people to know Qian Guang's feelings for her.

At this time, it was not a glorious thing for a married woman to be missed by a man other than her husband.

Su Zhi would not give Shen Zhu more chips to attract Qian Guang. Qian Guang liked her, although she could not accept it, but after all, Qian Guang saved her and was a good young man. Seeing him hurt by love, and it was her fault, Su Zhi was willing to wish him to find a good woman and live a peaceful and happy life. If he married a girl like Shen Zhu, she was not sure he could live a happy life.

Shen Zhu is a girl with a heavy heart.

Su Zhi didn't stop Shen Zhu's good deeds, but she wouldn't help her either.

"Mother, mother."

Yueyue called Suzhi softly outside the gauze window. It was spring now. Although the weather was still a little cold, the windows would still be opened during the warmest time of the day. There was a layer of gauze inside the windows of Suzhi's house, so one could see inside from outside and outside from inside.

Yueyue's little face was outside at this time. She was leaning on the windowsill, looking at her mother standing in the house with a frown on her face. She waved at Su Zhi.

"Little thing, why don't you come in?"

Su Zhi walked over and gently touched Yueyue's little nose through the gauze.

Yueyue pouted and said, "I don't want to be with my aunt. Mom, I heard my aunt ask you for something, don't you want to give it to her? You just said you couldn't find it, and then I said I took it away."

"You little brat!" Su Zhi couldn't help but tap Yueyue's nose again. She thought that this little girl, although a little naughty at times, was really smart, and she could easily sense who was good and who was bad. For example, Shen Zhu, even though Shen Zhu looked gentle, Yueyue still didn't like her.

Su Zhi lifted the curtain and went out. She gave Shen Zhu an apologetic smile and said, "Zhu'er, I can't find my box of fragrant rice. I don't know where it went. Maybe Xiao Ri and the others took it to play with. You should still take these boxes of fragrant rice. These boxes are much better than the lotus-scented fragrant rice. In fact, you have a noble temperament and a dignified appearance. The fragrance of these fragrant rice is more suitable for you."

Shen Zhu looked unhappy. She thought that she had been so humble and insisted on getting a share of the fragrant rice, but she still didn't give it to her. Was she deliberately going against her? ! She really wanted to let the little kid play with it! But she couldn't turn against Su Zhi just for a box of fragrant rice. They were still needed now, and it was too early to turn against each other, especially since Qian Guang had feelings for Su Zhi. If she didn't get along with her, Qian Guang would probably dislike her, right? Shen Zhu could only bury her anger in her heart. The more she buried it, the deeper the resentment became. She thought that as long as she married Qian Guang, she would find a chance to make Su Zhi look bad, and then let her fourth brother divorce her, and see how she could still be so proud!

Shen Zhu didn't get what she wanted and left with resentment.

Before Shen Zhu left, Yueyue said in front of Su Zhi, under Su Zhi's questioning, that she was the one who took the box of fragrant rice.

Although Shen Zhu heard Yueyue admit it herself, she was still very angry with Su Zhi. She just had a feeling that Su Zhi had a way to make her whiter and more beautiful, and also had a way to get her the fragrant rice points, but Su Zhi just did not do it.

Su Zhi didn't care what Shen Zhu thought. In order to reward Yueyue, she prepared a sumptuous dinner in the evening, and the whole family enjoyed the meal very much.

After Shen Zhu returned home, he became angrier and angrier, so he went to complain to Shen Zhang.

Shen Zhang touched her hair and said with a smile, "If she doesn't give it to you, then you don't have it. You are very fair and beautiful now. As for the fragrant rice fragrance, I think the rose fragrance is more suitable for you. It is sweet and generous, and it matches your temperament very well. Let her use the lotus fragrance. Speaking of which, I have smelled her fragrance. It is nice, but too light. You can't smell it unless you smell it carefully. If you want to attract Qian Guang, it is not good to use that kind of fragrant rice fragrance."

Shen Zhu was also reluctant to tell Shen Zhang that Qian Guang actually liked Su Zhi. She felt extremely humiliated when she discovered this fact. If she let others know, she would feel even more useless and not even as good as a country woman!

Shen Zhang sighed and said, "Do you think your fourth sister-in-law is very special now? Although she is not ordinary now, she is just a village woman. If you want to learn, you should learn from those ladies from the city, not her. A man like Qian Guang would marry a rich lady, not a village woman like Su Zhi."

Shen Zhu could only nod silently, thinking that Qian Guang liked that kind of village woman!

"Zhu'er, your brother will go to the town tomorrow. He wants to invite Qian Guang to go to the temple to burn incense together. You should go with him then. Wear the new beige dress I made for you tomorrow. It will suit your skin tone best."

"I see."

Shen Zhu nodded. She thought to herself that even if she didn't have Su Zhi's fair skin and the same fragrance, she would still be able to attract Qian Guang. Even if Qian Guang liked Su Zhi, she already had a man. They would never be together in this life! Only she had the chance to marry Qian Guang!

The next day, Shen Zhu and Shen Ziju went out together in a carriage. The carriage was borrowed from Shen Zian's family. Shen Ziping, who had nothing to do at home, took them to the town, and then they bought some things and brought them home. When they came back, they rented a carriage or asked the Qian family's carriage to take them back.

When I arrived at the Qian family, I first met Mr. Qian and Mrs. Qian. They both behaved very well. Mr. Qian was very polite, and Mrs. Qian was also very polite.

Mr. Qian told Shen Zian that he and Qian Guang should study hard and pass the imperial examinations when they go to the capital. Mrs. Qian was talking to Shen Zhu.

Shen Zhu was very gentle in front of Mrs. Qian, acting like a lady from a noble family. She just didn't want Mrs. Qian to treat her as an ordinary farmer's daughter. She had to let Mrs. Qian know that although she was born in a peasant family, she not only had a brother who was a successful candidate for marriage, but she herself was also very outstanding. In this way, if she married Qian Guang, she would be liked by her parents-in-law and would not be criticized after she got married.

Mrs. Qian smiled and said, "Guang'er and your brother Ziju went to burn incense this time to ask for a fortune stick before going to Beijing to take the imperial examination. What are you going to ask for? Let me guess, it must be for marriage, right? Zhu'er is beautiful, has a good temper, and is kind-hearted. She will definitely marry a rare man in the future. When the time comes, your aunt will definitely send you a gift."

Shen Zhu had a shy look on her face at first, but when she heard the last sentence, her expression changed. She thought, does this mean that Mrs. Qian has no intention of making her her daughter-in-law at all?

Mrs. Qian looked at Shen Zhu's pretty face and thought that this girl was interested in her son. She was aware of it, but she came from a wealthy family and was not worthy of her son. She decided to give up the idea for now!

"Guang'er is old enough to find a wife. Last time I went to the temple to draw a fortune stick for him, and it was a very good one, saying that his marriage partner is in the north and he will meet one soon. I think he will meet one on this trip to the capital. By then, maybe your brother can also find a sister-in-law for you in the capital. That would be two good marriages."

Mrs. Qian said with a smile.

Shen Zhu's face became even uglier. She thought that Mrs. Qian said that Qian Guang's marriage was in the north, so it must not be her. Did Mrs. Qian say these things to her on purpose? She just didn't want her to think about Qian Guang? Shen Zhu was very angry, but she still had a faint smile on her face.

"Aunt, you will definitely have a good daughter-in-law. I will definitely come to the wedding."

Shen Zhu smiled and said that she would definitely come to the wedding because she would be the bride and she would drink the wedding wine of the bride and groom!
