528 Marriage (5)
“That’s true.” Chen Ruoqiu forced a smile. “But I have to let Yue get to know them first.”
“It’s been two years. Every time we talk to her about her marriage, she throws a tantrum. You’re too indulgent.” Shen Wan said with a sharp gaze, “Although our family is not bad, Yue is aiming too high. If she has thoughts about someone she should never have, it will bring our family destruction.”
Shen Wan’s gaze was meaningful, and Chen Ruoqiu’s heart skipped a beat. Shen Wan was not a fool. As a father, he could naturally tell what was on Shen Yue’s mind. If Shen Yue fell in love with Fu Xiuyi, Shen Wan would be first to say no.
“Some people are beyond our reach.” There was a hidden meaning in Shen Wan’s words. “It’s better to let Yue be down-to-earth and give up on thoughts she shouldn’t have as soon as possible. Otherwise, it’ll be too late for her to come out of the quagmire.”
Chen Ruoqiu broke out in cold sweat. After being husband and wife with Shen Wan for so many years, she was almost certain that Shen Wan knew what Shen Yue was thinking. However, Chen Ruoqiu knew Shen Yue’s temper very well. When Shen Miao was still around, Shen Yue was infatuated with Prince Ding. Now that Shen Miao was gone, Shen Yue would be less likely to give up.
“But Master.” Chen Ruoqiu still wanted to help Shen Yue. “Yue is still young. There are some things that can’t be rushed. You used to dote on her too. Can’t you understand this time?”
Shen Wan took a deep breath and looked at Chen Ruoqiu with a disappointed gaze. He said, “Madam, you’ve always been sensible. Why don’t you understand what’s going on now? Prince Ding is not as simple as he looks. In the past, when the first branch was still around, the Shen family had military power, so Prince Ding might be afraid. Now that the first branch has moved out, Second Brother and I are both civil servants, and our careers are not smooth-sailing, Prince Ding will not take us seriously. When Prince Ding marries, he will definitely marry a wife who is beneficial to him. Yue is not very valuable to him. Why would he marry Yue? At most, she will just be a concubine. Even if Yue is liked by him, how can a concubine fight with the first wife with a powerful background? At that time, Yue will still be the one who suffers.”
When Chen Ruoqiu heard this, she broke out in a cold sweat. She thought that Shen Wan did not agree with Shen Yue marrying Prince Ding because he did not think highly of Prince Ding in the competition for the throne. But now, it seemed that Shen Wan’s evaluation of Prince Ding was that he was not an ordinary man, but someone who weighed the pros and cons. It was very difficult for such a man to be sincere.
She said, “I see. I didn’t think it through. Master is always thinking about Yue, but I still blame you… It’s all my fault.”
“Don’t blame yourself.” Shen Wan sighed. “Yue is a little more arrogant and wilful than before. You have to lecture her well so that she won’t get herself into trouble in the future. I’ll get my subordinates to make a list of good families in the capital and send it over later. Choose a family and let Yue meet them another day.” After a pause, he said, “We can’t wait.”
This time, Chen Ruoqiu stood on the same side as Shen Wan and immediately agreed. After Shen Wan went to court, the list was sent back. Chen Ruoqiu carefully went through it. She really planned to let Shen Yue marry as soon as possible.
In the Autumn Water Garden, among the maids who were sweeping the courtyard outside, someone quietly put down her work and went out.
