Chapter 368 Did you agree?

Wang had no choice but to say this. She had just heard the threat from Shen Youfu and was really worried. She thought that Shen Zhu was gone and it was okay, but what about her daughters?

Although Wang thought that her sons and daughters would have a better life with the support of Shen Ziju in the future, and she also thought that her two sons could be taken out by Shen Ziju to see the world and have a good future, she never thought of letting her two daughters marry far away. In her opinion, her two daughters were very good, but they were still too simple. It would be better for them to marry in their hometown, find a man who knew them well, and have the elders in the family to support them, so that they could live a peaceful life. She knew that her two daughters did not have the mind of Shen Zhu, and could not marry into the good family found by Shen Ziju like her.

Because of this, Wang didn't want what Shen Youfu had just said to become true. If that were the case, Shen Zhu would be fine, but those unmarried girls in the Shen family would be in trouble. This is how the world is. If one bad person appears in a family, the whole family will be implicated. If Shen Zhu's reputation is ruined, all the girls in the family will have a ruined reputation as well!

Wang wanted to promote the marriage between Shen Zhu and the Qian family, so that Shen Zhu's reputation would not be damaged and her daughter's future would not be ruined. Having the Qian family as a good relative would also be beneficial to Chunlan and Chunxiang's marriage in the future. That's why she was able to speak up and brought out several brothers from the Shen family.

"That's right. Zhu'er has many brothers. Let's not talk about other things. Just look at the ones here now. Zi'an and Ziju are all great. With brothers like them, she is not unworthy of your Qian family. Zi'an and Ziju have a good relationship with your Qian family. Even for their sake, you can't let our Zhu'er suffer."

Shen Zhang said.

Shen Youfu glanced at Shen Zian and said, "There's a vermicelli workshop in Fuyuan. I see you've been getting close to them recently. Could it be that you have a share in it? That business is quite profitable. If you still want to continue the cooperation, think about it carefully."

Shen Zian frowned and said, "Dad, official business is official business, and private business is private business. Don't mix them together."

"What's the difference between public and private matters! Is Zhu'er your sister? If she is, then this is a private matter!" Shen Youfu said to Shen Zian, and glared at Su Zhi again, "After you and your wife got married, you didn't acquire any other skills, but you learned to be good at talking!"

Su Zhi thought to herself, is this a case of being shot even when lying down? But she didn't care. Shen Youfu had always disliked her, and it started from the ginseng incident. Su Zhi had never let Shen Youfu get any benefits from her. Of course, it wasn't that Su Zhi was unfilial to him. Su Zhi had always prepared everything that should be given, and she had never lacked food and clothing. And every time she sent it, she would make sure to show it in the open for people to see. Who in Hebian Village didn't know that Shen Zian and his wife were filial? Shen Youfu wanted to say something bad about Su Zhi, but he had nowhere to say it.

Shen Zian said to Qian Dafu: "Master Qian, we should keep public and private affairs separate. Don't mind what my father says."

Qian Dahu nodded, feeling relieved about their business, thinking that Shen Zian had made his attitude clear. Even if his family did not accept Shen Zhu, they would not stop cooperating with them. Qian Dahu thought that Shen Zian and his wife were really sensible. It seemed that the two families would have more exchanges in the future to keep the business going for a long time.

Shen Youfu glared at Shen Zian, thinking that his son really didn't take him seriously. But Shen Zhang held him back, so he could only endure it. He thought that after solving his daughter's problem today, he would go back and teach Shen Le'an a lesson, so that he wouldn't think that he could ignore his father just because he had money!

"Can you please listen to me for a moment?"

Qian Guang spoke at this time. He had been silent just now, but when he spoke now, although his voice was soft, it made everyone quiet down.

Mrs. Qian asked caringly, "Son, what do you want to say? Just lie down and talk. Don't move."

Qian Dafu said, "Guang'er, I'll leave this matter to you. You're an adult now, so you need to think it over carefully. Once you've made your decision, don't regret it in the future."

Qian Guang nodded and said to Shen Youfu and the others, "It's hard to tell who is right or wrong about this matter. But Zi Ju and I have been friends for many years, and I get along very well with Zi An. Shen Zhu thinks that her innocence has been tarnished by me, so as a man, I have to bear the blame. Since she wants to marry, I will marry her."

"Guang'er!"

When Mrs. Qian heard Qian Guang's words, she cried out and her eyes turned red. She thought her son was really forced to marry Shen Zhu. She also heard that her son started calling Shen Zhu by her name from some point in time. He used to call Shen Zhu "Miss Shen" or "Zhu'er" and would even call her "sister" when he was affectionate. Maybe he doesn't like to marry her now, so he has become so cold!

Mrs. Qian had only this one son. She felt heartbroken when she thought about him being forced to marry a woman he didn't like. She disliked Shen Zhu even more and looked at the people of the Shen family with great disgust. She thought to herself, just wait, even if Shen Zhu married into the Qian family, she couldn't expect to live a good life. She would make her understand that being a daughter-in-law of the Qian family was not about eating, dressing well and sitting back to enjoy herself. She had to be able to afford it!

Mrs. Qian was not a bad person. If Qian Guang had married Shen Zhu because he liked her before this incident, she would not have been a wicked mother-in-law even if she thought Shen Zhu was not worthy of her son. But now she thought her son was wronged, and she vowed to be a wicked mother-in-law to help her son vent his anger!

Mr. Qian sighed in his heart, thinking that his son was too responsible. He was the son of the Qian family, but he was really wronged.

Shen Youfu and Shen Zhang were both very happy, and Shen Zifu and Wang were both relieved.

Shen Zian and Su Zhi looked at each other and thought, is this matter solved just like that? This seems too easy. However, they did not feel happy or relieved. After all, this marriage was forced by the Shen family, and although the Qian family agreed, they were resentful in their hearts. Who knows what might happen in the future. How can they be happy and relieved?

Shen Youfu's face also turned from thunderstorm to sunny, and the smile on his face was really exciting. Shen Zhang was even more so. She was crying with joy, and kept thanking God and saying that Shen Zhu and Qian Guang were a match made in heaven and that they would live happily together in the future. She also talked to the Qian couple and very skillfully resolved the various conflicts of the day. Wang helped on the side, and Shen Zifu stood aside without saying anything.

Qian Guang just woke up. He said he was tired and wanted to rest for a while.

Except for two servants who stayed in the house to guard Qian Guang, everyone else went out.

When Qian Guang heard the room become quiet, he opened his eyes again, looked at the tent above his head, pursed his lips, and a hint of coldness flashed across his face.

Shen Zhang asked Shen Zifu and Wang to go back to their room to rest. She, Shen Youfu and Shen Ziju went to Shen Zhu's room and told her that Qian Guang had agreed to marry her.

Shen Zhu was very happy to hear this. The smile on her face was as bright as a spring flower under the light, and it seemed as if little flames were lit in her eyes.

Shen Zhang looked at her and tapped her forehead, saying, "You little girl, you really like Qian Guang so much! You really annoyed me this time. Do you really think the Qian family is so easy to deal with? You said that when your brother passes the imperial examination and becomes an official, you will then express your feelings to the Qian family. Will they come to propose marriage? Even if the Qian family does not propose marriage, you can find a better marriage. Why do you want to take this risk? If the Qian family really refuses to accept you this time, our Shen family will really lose all their face!"

Shen Zhu hugged Shen Zhang with her uninjured arm and said coquettishly, "Mom, I just want to marry Qian Guang. The old woman in the Qian family doesn't like me, so I want to marry Qian Guang. You said that they would propose marriage after my brother becomes an official, but if Qian Guang also passed the imperial examination, wouldn't it be the same as now? He still wouldn't propose marriage! But if I knew that he would be injured this time and couldn't take part in this spring exam, I really wouldn't do this. The water is so cold that I caught a cold."

Shen Zhu's voice became a little hoarse and her head felt a little dizzy. Su Zhi gave her medicine, but it was all powder and she didn't give it to her to take internally.

Speaking of the robbers, Shen Zhang was really frightened and said, "This matter is really too suspenseful! How come these people showed up? Fortunately, both of you are fine, otherwise you would have been heartbroken to death."

Shen Zhu was also scared. Although those bandits said they were robbing, she felt that they were too cruel. They were really not like ordinary robbers. Ordinary robbers would never kill people. Wouldn't they just take the things and run away? But if these people were after money, why would they kill her? She couldn't see their faces! If someone hadn't suddenly come to save them, she really felt that she would have died under the knife!

Shen Ziju said, "Mom, don't talk about that anymore. Zhu'er is scared."

Shen Zhang stopped talking about this matter and started talking about Qian Guang, scolding Shen Zhu: "Qian Guang is good, but it's not worth it for you to do this. If you really get into trouble in the water, then it's all over. Also, if the Qian family really doesn't agree, won't our Shen family and the Qian family become enemies? Why don't you think about your family? Zi Ju has been friends with him for many years. There are benefits to supporting each other in the future! You almost ruined everything!"

Shen Zhu said coquettishly, "No, with you here, the Qian family can't beat you, so isn't that right?"

Shen Youfu said with a straight face, "Fortunately, your mother had thought of all the reactions of the Qian family, so they didn't get scared. Otherwise, you would have suffered for nothing this time! You should behave yourself in the future. The Qian family will not like you. When you marry into the family, serve your husband and parents-in-law well and let them like you again soon."

Don't worry, don't worry, I'll keep my word. Qian Guang will not marry Shen Zhu. "Jin Niang" by Xi Huan. Book number 2648403, Synopsis: The world is like a chess piece.
