Chapter 437 It’s finally the fifth sister’s turn to take the lead

Madam Zhao and her companions stood by the bed, seeming to want to say something but stopping themselves, and several times they seemed to want to ask her how she had angered the Queen Mother.

But he seemed afraid that Shen Shuyi would be embarrassed, so he didn't ask anything in the end.

Shen Shuyi glanced at the things in the box and was stunned for a moment.

The other two boxes sent by Mrs. Chen Guo were filled with rare medicinal herbs and supplements.

However, this small box handed to her personally contained some snacks.

Maltose, jujube cake, honey crystal, hawthorn ball...

All kinds of sour and sweet things are made into beautiful shapes, colorful, and put together according to different grids. They are crystal clear and indescribably beautiful, which makes people feel good when they see them.

Qin Xin and Jian Po glanced at the box and their eyes twitched involuntarily.

The master is taking out all his best treasures to please Miss Shen.

You know, there are three things that the Lord hates.

First, I hate people who talk too much nonsense. Second, I hate things that are too ugly. Third... I hate bitter medicine.

Now this box of candied fruits is all worthless stuff, and I don’t know if Miss Shen will like it.

Shen Shuyi didn't look up, but she knew what Madam Zhao was going to ask, and said softly, "Don't worry, Grandma. I know what's going on."

"It's good that you know what's going on." Upon hearing this, Madam Zhao was not relieved.

After all, Shen Shuyi offended the empress dowager of the dynasty, not an ordinary official.

No matter how confident she was, she was just a young girl.

Madam Zhao thought she was just doing it for the sake of face, so she just said, "Take good care of yourself. If I have the chance in the future, I will ask the Empress Dowager for you..."

Shen Shuyi didn't explain either. After all, there were some things that couldn't be said in detail.

Her eyes were gentle, and she gently held her grandmother's hand: "I see, my injury is not serious. With Lianqiao taking care of me, I will be alive and well in a few days."

Old Madam Zhao looked at her with kindness, she just felt that she was just trying to be strong.

But when I thought about it again, I felt that it was because she had been used to being alone and helpless all these years that she developed such a personality, and I felt even more sad for a moment.

"Don't worry, no matter what, grandma will find a good marriage for you in the future, and the Qingyuan Marquis Mansion will always be your support."

My aunt-in-law beside me also nodded in agreement.

Speaking of this, Old Madam Zhao felt a headache. Her granddaughter was so smart, but she didn't know who was so unscrupulous that she spread rumors that she would bring bad luck to her husband's family, which affected her marriage.

Now that he has angered the Queen Mother, he will probably have trouble getting married in the future.

When she thought of this, Mrs. Zhao felt depressed.

Shen Shuyi: "..."

"Grandma, I actually think it's good not to get married." Shen Shuyi spoke carefully.

Madam Zhao frowned: "How can that be possible! Your father..."

Mrs. Zhao was halfway through her words when she realized that this was not Shen Shuyi's own boudoir, and she swallowed her words back.

"When you get married in the future, you will have someone to rely on. If you and your husband can live in harmony, it will be a beautiful thing." Old Madam Zhao said with a frown.

Shen Shuyi fell silent and did not argue anymore.

She knew it would be like this...

As they were afraid of disturbing Shen Shuyi's rest, the Zhao family members didn't stay for too long. After giving him some instructions, they left one after another.

Lian Qiao carefully treated Shen Shuyi's wound. Seeing that her injury was indeed not serious, she carefully checked Shen Shuyi's pulse and then went to boil medicine.

Shen Shuyi lay on his side on the bed, thinking of Mrs. Chen Guo's words, and Xie Jingchi's face appeared in front of him.

Was it Mrs. Chen Guo whom he invited?

I didn't expect that Xie Jingchi would have such a big face.

Judging from Mrs. Chen Guo's attitude, it was obvious that she took his entrustment very seriously. I don't know how he was related to Mrs. Chen Guo.

Shen Shuyi picked a hawthorn ball out of the box. It tasted sweet at first, but when he bit into it, it was so sour that he almost drooled.

She squinted her eyes and thought it tasted good.

Not long after, Shen Shuyi was leaning back on the couch reading a book, and he saw Shen Meiru looking at herself carefully in the mirror.

"Fourth sister, I didn't expect that the girls in our family would have such a hard time getting married. I don't know what kind of family you and I will marry into in the future." Shen Meiru spoke softly, with some hint of meaning.

Shen Qinghuan glanced at her and said, "Fifth sister, you are eager to get married. The marriages of the other sisters haven't been decided yet, so it's not your turn to be anxious."

Shen Meiru said: "It's just that the eldest sister's appearance is damaged at the moment, and the second sister..."

Speaking of Shen Shuyi, Shen Meiru raised her eyes and glanced in the direction of Shen Shuyi, and said slowly: "Second sister has offended the Queen Mother again."

"Third sister's reputation has been damaged, and I'm afraid our marriage won't be smooth."

After that, Shen Meiru looked at Shen Shuyi and said again: "Second sister, don't think too much. I don't mean anything else. I just think about my own marriage and can't help feeling sad. After all, my mother is just an unpopular concubine, and no one makes decisions for me..."

At this point, Shen Meiru hid the disappointment on her face again, and said to Shen Shuyi with a smile: "Look at me, why are you saying this? I just didn't expect that someone as smart and clever as my second sister would actually cause the Queen Mother to hate her."

Shen Shuyi smiled, he could tell from Shen Meiru's face that she was taking advantage of someone's misfortune and was a villain who had succeeded.

One of the evils of human nature is to dethrone those who are high and mighty. Although she is not a high and mighty person, to Shen Meiru, she is always winning.

Whether it is her or Shen Jingyu.

There are always people who want to see them fail...

Meeting Shen Shuyi's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, Shen Meiru felt inexplicably guilty.

Yes, she did have the intention to ridicule him.

She was just really jealous, jealous of Shen Shuyi's arrogance and jealous of her happy life.

Why is it that although she is also a lady from the Shangshu Mansion, she has to be submissive all the time and look at Qin Xuerong's face, Shen Jingyu's face, and Shen Jingzhen's face!

Apart from the title of a legitimate daughter, how can Shen Shuyi compare to me?

Why can she be so happy!

You can get everything you want!

Shen Shuyi curled his lips, looked directly at Shen Meiru, and said with a smile: "Yes, it seems that it is finally the fifth sister's turn to come forward."

Shen Meiru was startled and her throat tightened, as if she had not expected Shen Shuyi to point out her thoughts with such a smile.

"Second sister, that's not what I meant. I really feel sorry for you. You have offended the Queen Mother. Father will definitely scold you later. I'm afraid your marriage in the future will be..."

Shen Shuyi smiled. What he disliked most about Shen Meiru was her awkward personality.

She didn't dare to fight her with real weapons like Shen Jingyu, nor did she dare to throw a tantrum and curse like Shen Jingzhen, nor did she dare to be hypocritical like Lou Yulan.

In other words, two words: frustrating.

As if she felt that the more she explained, the less clear she was, Shen Meiru's eyes immediately turned red: "Second sister, I haven't thought about it that much, I just said it casually, don't take it to heart."
