Chapter 68: Changing Marriage

Start from the beginning
                                    

Even it was usual, Ren Wan Yun would also not tolerate to have such a good marriage proposal falling onto Shen Miao's lap. Not to mention Shen Qing was in such a condition now, she could not stand to see Shen Miao, the originator, to be better off.

"Furen need not worry." Xiang Lan said, "Old Furen would definitely not agree with this marriage."

In the General's residence, Old Shen Furen bore the brunt for the hate on the First household. Since nothing can be done with Shen Xin, Old Shen Furen could however could secretly control Shen Miao's marriage in the palm of her hands. Previously due to Ren Wan Yun's management, Shen Miao's idiot reputation was well known all over Ming Qi but now Shen Miao had shed off the foolish title, if someone come over with a marriage proposal, with Old Shen Furen's ill intention, she would definitely find ways to dispel their thoughts.

"With her kind of worthless life, how can there be such a luck in it. Afraid that after marrying shortly, she would die." Ren Wan Yun's words were endlessly vicious. She looked at the doors that were shut tightly. Shen Qing was still in the room, unwilling to see anyone, thus a trace of resentment flared in her heart, "But Master actually still hope for Qing-er to marry to that person!"

Shen Gui still did not know about Shen Qing's pregnancy and Ren Wan Yun did not intend to tell him. Shen Gui, this kind of person who took relationships lightly, to Shen Qing who recently lost her innocence he could barely tolerate her now. But if he were to know about Shen Qing's pregnancy, he would definitely disregard Shen Qing's health and force her to abort the baby.

But even so, Shen Gui was afraid that the matter would be exposed and even urged Ren Wan Yun to search a marriage for Shen Qing, as long as Shen Qing was able to marry over quickly and the other's family was of high rank. After picking around, they choose the Supervisor of the Minor Treasurer's youngest son, Huang De Xing.

The Huang family was considered to be higher in rank than the Wei family and naturally would be bathed in glory and wealth. But as compared to the Wei Family, the Huang family's Master and Furen's were not people who were easy to deal with and Huang De Qing was a cut sleeve person who liked men.

Cut sleeves meant homosexuality, originating from the History of Western Han when Emperor Han Aidi was in bed with his lover Dong Xian and had to attend a court audience that morning. Not wishing to awaken Dong Xian, who was sleeping with his head resting on the emperor's long robe sleeve, the Emperor used a knife to cut off the lower half of his sleeve.

It was because of that the Huang family was not very concerned about picking a daughter-in-law. As long as the daughter-in-law temperament was gentle and would close an eye on Huang De Xing's indiscretions, they did not care about other stuff.

Shen Gui thought that since Shen Qing's body was already dirty, it would be better to marry to the Huang family since Huang De Xing was not interested in females and would not touch Shen Qing. Naturally this secret would not be discovered. Shen Qing only need to have the Huang family's daughter-in-law's name and enjoy the wealth and splendour. And She Gui could also rely on the Huang family's marriage and relationship and raise his career up another level.

Shen Gui naturally thought it was a good idea but Ren Wan Yun did not comply. Even if Shen Qing's body was dirty, in Ren Wan Yun's heart, she would still search for a good marriage for Shen Qing. Marrying to Huang De Xing was like living the life of a widow and she would definitely not use her daughter for this marriage. Because of this matter, Shen Gui and Ren Wan Yun had already argued for a long time. The couple's relationship was already cold and now was even worse. Shen Gui almost never step into Cai Yun Yuan and spend all the time in the concubine's courtyard.

"It would be best if only Fifth Young Lady and Eldest Young Lady were exchanged." Cai Ju said resentfully.

The speaker had no particular intention but the listener read more meaning into it. When Ren Wan Yun heard what was spoken, her brows jumped and she suddenly looked towards Cai Ju, "What did you say!"
