363: Saving people sometimes does not bring good rewards

Shen Zhu was still wearing the clothes borrowed from the temple. Of course, there were no women's clothes in the temple. There were only men's clothes, gray monk's robes. Although they were new, they still looked very ugly when people saw them now. So when Shen Zhang asked this question, although Shen Zhu immediately pulled the quilt, she still couldn't hide the fact that she was wearing men's clothes.

As soon as Shen Zhang said this, she seemed to realize something was wrong when she saw Shen Zhu's expression. However, what she realized was not that there was a maid from a wealthy family next door, and that asking this question was not good for Shen Zhu, but that she realized that there was something wrong with Shen Zhu's clothes. Her eyebrows suddenly stood up, and she walked over and pulled the quilt off Shen Zhu's head.

"Take the quilt away! What's wrong with the clothes on you? Why aren't they your own? Are you injured? Let me take a look!"

"Mom, please stop looking. I'm fine. I'm not hurt!"

Shen Zhu was pulled away from the quilt by Shen Zhang, and she screamed hurriedly, and pulled the quilt down hard, as if she was afraid that Shen Zhang would see the clothes she was wearing.

Shen Zhang said, "That's not right! If you weren't injured, why did you let someone change your clothes? Girl, if you're injured, you have to tell your mother! Let me see! I'm your mother!"

The maidservant at the side quickly advised Shen Zhang, "Madam, please stop talking. Miss Shen is injured. It would be bad if you touch her wound! If you have something to say, please speak slowly!"

Another maid also said, "Miss Shen is not injured otherwise, please don't worry."

Su Zhi watched from the side and felt something was strange for some reason. She thought about it carefully and then realized what was wrong.

That is Shen Zhang’s attitude.

Shen Zhang was usually a very gentle person, her movements were slow and thoughtful. Just now, Shen Ziju was just unconscious. Everyone said that he was not injured. Even if she was crying, she just lay on the bed and cried. She grabbed Shen Ziju's hand, as if she had hurt him. It shows that she was afraid that her son was unconscious and had injuries on his body, so she didn't dare to touch him.

But now it was completely different with Shen Zhu. Shen Zhu had injuries on her arm, which everyone saw. Shen Zhang should have been more careful with Shen Zhu than with Shen Ziju. But the way she pulled Shen Zhu's quilt just now was too strong, as if she would not stop until the quilt was torn open! This was really unlike what she did.

Not only was Shen Zhang's strength wrong, but Shen Zhu also seemed to be a little bit wrong. She just pulled the quilt, and it would have been fine if she had only pulled it below her neck, but how come it covered her head all of a sudden? And Shen Zhang's pulling of the quilt. Why did she insist on covering it back? What made her feel even more wrong was that she seemed to be just acting when she pulled the quilt, and the pulling motion was quite big, as if she was trying very hard to pull it back, but in fact she didn't want to pull it back at all.

Because the mother and daughter pulled the quilt so inappropriately, the quilt was torn open.

"Mom! I'm really not hurt!"

Shen Zhu's blanket was pulled away, and she screamed in anger.

Shen Zhu's clothes were exposed. Not only were they exposed, but a lot of them were exposed. Except for her feet, she was not covered at all. It was immediately obvious that she was wearing men's clothes. Not only her upper body was changed, but also her pants. The baggy clothes looked very inappropriate on her.

Su Zhi thought, no wonder she changed Shen Zhu's dressing just now. She felt that her sleeves looked a little strange. It turned out to be this color. Shen Zhu, a young girl who loves beauty so much, why would she wear a gray dress? She came to Qian's house, or to see Qian Guang, so she would wear bright colors, right?

"Zhu'er! Why are you wearing men's clothes?"

Shen Zhang was usually gentle, staring at her daughter and asking, as if her daughter had done something terrible. As she spoke, she pulled at Shen Zhu's collar, revealing her clothes. Shen Zhang's face became even uglier, and she stared at Shen Zhu, her lips trembling.

"Mom, I'm really not hurt." Shen Zhu used her uninjured hand to rip her clothes. Her eyes turned red again and tears flowed down.

"You are not injured, so why did you change your clothes? And they are men's clothes!" Shen Zhang questioned.

Su Zhi looked at Shen Zhu's clothes and wondered why Shen Zhang was like this. Shen Zhu's clothes were men's clothes, and she had just seen Shen Zhu's underwear, which was definitely not her underwear. Her daughter went out and her clothes were changed. She was wearing men's clothes. If people knew about this, how could she handle it?

Wang looked at Shen Zhang and advised her, "Mother, don't be anxious. Let Zhu'er talk slowly. She must have a reason."

Shen Zhu sobbed and said, "I fell into the water today, luckily Brother Qian rescued me, so I changed my clothes."

Su Zhi thought to herself that this was a really eventful day for them. First they fell into the water, then they were chased by someone, but they were only injured, not dead. Can we say that surviving a disaster brings good fortune in the future? But why did Shen Zhu's crying look so fake to her? Although she cried very touchingly.

Upon hearing this, Shen Zhang immediately asked Shen Zhu, "You fell into the water? Are you okay? Did Young Master Qian rescue you? He didn't touch you, did he?!"

With just these words, Su Zhi's mind seemed to light up. Could it be what she thought? Just now, she felt that there was something wrong between the mother and daughter. Was this the reason? Falling into the water? How could it be such a coincidence that they fell into the water? This really reminded her of Zhao Xiaohua's clumsy trick not long ago. She wondered if Shen Zhu was also playing tricks? And Shen Zhang was acting with her, just to let everyone in the Qian family know about this? So that the Qian family had no way to go back on their words?

The more Su Zhi thought about it, the more she felt that this was the case. She also hoped that she was just conspiring. After all, they were members of the Shen family. Doing such a thing would really be a disgrace to the Shen family. If it was exposed, it would be extremely embarrassing to meet the Qian family again in the future, right?

When Shen Zhu heard Shen Zhang's question, her face turned red and she lowered her head and cried, "Mom, don't say anything!"

Su Zhi's heart sank when she saw Shen Zhu's expression, thinking, is this an admission?!

The maids of the Qian family were all dumbfounded. What was going on? Were the mother and daughter saying that their young master had seen Miss Shen's body? This was not a good thing! One maid immediately winked at another maid, asking her to report it to the old master and his wife. This was a big deal!

Su Zhi watched the two maids exchange glances, and then watched a maid walk out. She thought it was over. Mr. Qian and Mrs. Qian would definitely have some opinions about the Shen family this time.

Shen Zhang continued to interrogate Shen Zhu, asking her what was going on. In every sentence, she was asking Shen Zhu whether anyone had seen her body and taken advantage of her. Although Shen Zhu covered her face with her hands and looked very ashamed, her attitude and her words showed that Shen Zhang's guess was correct.

Su Zhi thought to herself, no matter if this was something that had been planned long ago, one thing was certain, Shen Zhu wanted to use this incident to further develop her relationship with Qian Guang. I don't know how the Qian family would deal with it. In fact, with the current situation of the Shen family, it is not impossible to marry into the Qian family. It may not have been a good match before, but with the success of Shen Ziju and Shen Zian, Shen Zhu is considered to be worthy of Qian Guang.

But in Su Zhi's heart, Shen Zhu's mind is not pure, she is a little vain and cunning, and marrying such a woman is not necessarily a good thing. Qian Guang is a good person, and letting him marry Shen Zhu is really a bit unfair to him.

Shen Youfu heard the noise inside and walked in, asking them what they were arguing about unhappily. Shen Zixing hadn't woken up yet, and he was worried. But when he saw Shen Zhu, he was also a little worried. After all, she was his daughter, and she was usually well-behaved. He also hoped that she would marry into a good family!

Shen Zhang told Shen Youfu about the matter. Shen Youfu's face changed when he heard it. He said, "Is there such a thing? If he really saw my daughter Zhu'er's body, he must be responsible! I don't care if he is a son of the Qian family, he must marry my daughter Zhu'er!"

"Dad! Don't talk nonsense!"

Shen Zhu cried shyly and covered her face with the quilt again.

Su Zhi listened to it and sighed in her heart. She thought about it. Now that the matter was made clear, if Qian Guang was so unlucky to save Shen Zhu and accidentally saw Shen Zhu's body, it would be troublesome if he didn't marry her. In this era, the norms between men and women are still quite strict. In places like the countryside, it may not be too strict, so there was no dispute when Song Dashan and Shen Ziju rescued people in the water. But if a woman's clothes were torn and her skin was exposed at that time, it would be possible for her to succeed if she wanted to rely on a man.

Su Zhi thought that not everyone wanted the reward of "I cannot repay you for saving my life, I can only give myself to you". Sometimes saving people is really a bad thing.

When Mrs. Qian heard that such a thing had happened to Shen Zhu, her face darkened. She looked down on Shen Zhu. She had just had a small disagreement with her husband over this matter in the morning. As a result, such a thing had happened not long ago. At the critical moment of his son's life and death, she actually wanted to rely on her son! It was simply too hateful!

Mrs. Qian became even more disgusted with Shen Zhu. It was impossible for her to marry her son!

When Qian Dahu heard about this, he was also a little surprised. He found the uninjured Xiao Dian who had gone out with Qian Guang and asked her if this was true.

Xiaodian did not dare to hide it and told the situation at that time.

Both Mr. Qian and Mrs. Qian knew that this had indeed happened.

At this time, Shen Youfu's big noise came out, saying that Qian Guang must marry Shen Zhu. The Qian couple were a little embarrassed. They wanted to talk it out, so what was the point of such a fuss? !
