609 Forced Marriage (2)
The door creaked open, and a head popped in. It was Shen Dongling.
The moment she saw Shen Dongling, Shen Yue was stunned. Shen Dongling looked outside and suddenly closed the door. She walked up to Shen Yue and thought for a moment before sitting down. She handed the basket in her hand to Shen Yue and said softly, “The old woman guarding the door outside is not around. I sneaked in. I know you haven’t eaten for a day. I was afraid that you would be hungry, so I brought you something to eat. Second Sister, you have to keep your voice down.”
Shen Yue saw Shen Dongling opening the bamboo basket and taking out stacks of snacks.
Shen Yue usually treated Shen Dongling insincerely, but at this moment, she was a little touched. She had not eaten for a day, but Chen Ruoqiu and Shen Wan did not care about it. She immediately softened her expression towards Shen Dongling. However, she had no appetite to eat those snacks no matter what.
She said, “Don’t bother. I really can’t eat.”
Shen Dongling looked at her. “Second Sister, why don’t you want to marry Young Master Wang? Young Master Wang is a good person. I heard that his family is rich. If Second Sister goes over, you will be the madam of the family. Is it because you don’t want to leave the Shen family?”
Shen Yue glanced at Shen Dongling. Probably due to the fact that she didn’t go out much, although Shen Dongling was about the same age as Shen Yue, she still looked innocent and naive like a child. Shen Yue was both jealous and disdainful. She looked down on Shen Dongling for being ignorant of the world outside, but at the same time, she was also jealous of her because Shen Dongling had a simple mind and life. Suddenly, Shen Yue had the urge to get it out of her chest. She forced a smile and said, “Whether he’s a good person or not has nothing to do with me.”
Shen Dongling widened her eyes and asked tentatively, “Second Sister, do you already have someone you like?”
“So what if I have?” Shen Yue snorted. “I was born in the Shen family and don’t even have the right to choose my future husband. My father only cares about his official career. Sometimes, I feel that I might as well die.”
Shen Dongling was shocked and quickly waved her hand. “Second Sister, don’t think that way. You have to know that in this world, dying is the easiest thing to do, but if you die, you will lose everything. Second Sister, why don’t you think differently? You have to know that the Wang family is not a bad family. Third Uncle and Third Aunt will never harm you. Perhaps that Young Master Wang is also adored by many girls. Perhaps many girls are envious of you. Take me as an example. If I can marry into the Wang family, my mother will probably go to the temple every day to thank Buddha for giving me such a good marriage.”
Shen Yue shook her head with a forced smile, feeling more and more that Shen Dongling was stupid. She could never be on the same page with Shen Dongling because Shen Dongling was, after all, an illegitimate daughter and was unpresentable. Naturally for her, marrying the son of Minister Counsellor was good enough.
Seeing that Shen Yue was still unhappy, Shen Dongling thought for a moment and said, “There will definitely be a way out when the time comes. Second Sister, why do you have to be sad and troubled over this now? It’s not worth it. Take Fifth Sister for example. Back then, after a marriage was forced upon her, she kicked up a scene and managed to escape the marriage.”
As Shen Dongling spoke, Shen Yue’s heart skipped a beat.
Back then, Shen Miao was about to get married, but she escaped because Shen Xin and his wife returned to the capital in time to stop it. At that time, Shen Yue had also eavesdropped on Chen Ruoqiu talking to the servants at the door and knew that Ren Wanyun was planning to swap Shen Qing and Shen Miao’s marriages.
