Shen Rong sat in front of the window, looking at the green-skinned oranges on the branches, and fell into deep thought.

In her previous life, after Changsheng died, she heard people say that if Changsheng had not frozen to death, he would not have to worry about his life with the savings left by Grandma Yao and Uncle Shen Liu. Unfortunately, he died young.

Changsheng saved her twice. She couldn't repay him in her previous life. But in this life, knowing what Changsheng's fate would be, she definitely couldn't just watch Changsheng go down the same old path.

However, if she chose to marry Changsheng in order to repay his kindness, she felt uncomfortable when she thought about it.

In her heart, Changsheng was just like a child playing in the mud, and she couldn't imagine such a person as her husband.

However, if she doesn't marry Changsheng, it would be inappropriate for her to take care of him in the future. She would have to take this and that into consideration when doing anything.

Changsheng saved her in her previous life. For the sake of her own reputation, she was afraid that Changsheng would spread rumors outside about her being harassed by a second-rate guy, so she never dared to contact Changsheng at all. Even after her sixth grandmother and sixth grandfather passed away one after another, she didn't dare to take care of Changsheng once, for she was afraid that Liu would talk about it.

For this reason, after Changsheng's death, she has always been unable to let it go.

Guilt, self-blame, and shame.

This time, the opportunity to make amends is right in front of you.

Shen Rong had experienced being used and betrayed by Gu Zhaoming, and she had seen through human nature and recognized the ruthless nature of men.

These days, her parents have been very worried about her marriage.

If I were to marry someone, I'd rather choose Changsheng. Although he's a little stupid, he's not without his merits.

He has savings at home and is a kind person, so he can be seen through at a glance. He is a hundred or a thousand times better than someone who harbors evil intentions.

If she marries Changsheng, she will be able to live a safe and smooth life unless something unexpected happens.

The more Shen Rong thought about it, the more feasible it seemed.

She decided to test her parents' attitude and then tell them what she thought.

In the afternoon, as soon as Shen Wu came back, before Shen Rong had time to do anything, Lu pulled him into the house and told him about Aunt Yao Liu coming to test the waters.

Shen Wu's face suddenly turned dark.

He has a good daughter, but even a fool dares to covet her.

But no matter what, Sanniang was saved by Changsheng.

He thought again of the rumors he had heard in the village in the past two days and could only suppress his anger.

"Does Sanniang know?"

Before Lu could answer, there was a knock on the door.

"Dad, Mom, are you in the room?"

The couple looked at each other, and Shen Wu said, "Come in!"

Shen Rong pushed open the door with some trepidation. When she saw the caring and loving eyes of her parents, she felt an impulse in her heart.

Her testing of her parents was a reflection of her distrust of them, so it would be better for her to be honest.

"Dad, Mom, I want to marry Changsheng."

Shen Rong's words made Shen Wu and his wife's faces change drastically.

"Sanniang, what did you say?" Mrs. Lu looked at her daughter in disbelief.

Shen Wu, who was standing aside, frowned tightly.

Shen Rong said seriously: "Dad, Mom, I want to marry Changsheng."

"Changsheng is just a fool! Why would you want to marry Changsheng?

Sanniang, don't listen to the nonsense those people outside say.

Don't worry, your parents will definitely find you a good family." Mrs. Lu came forward and pulled her daughter's arm.

Shen Rong held her mother's arm and said, "I believe in my parents, but, mother, with my current reputation, how can I find a good family? I might as well marry Changsheng. I heard what Sixth Grandma said when she came to our house. I think it's a good idea."

Shen Wu looked at his daughter-in-law and asked, "What did Sixth Aunt say when she came home?"

Lu recounted in detail all the words Yao had said to her, but before she had the time to tell her husband, Sanniang knocked on the door.

After hearing what Lu said, Shen Wu frowned even more tightly.

Given Sanniang's situation, it is not easy for her to marry into a good family nearby, unless she marries far away. However, if she marries so far away, they will be unable to do anything to her if she is bullied in the future.

This is a really difficult matter!

If Changsheng was not a fool, Shen Wu would not object to this marriage.

Pity.

"Sanniang, what do you think? If it's because of saving my life, I don't think you need to sacrifice your life. Mom and Dad are still here!"

Shen Rong glanced at her parents who looked a little old, lowered her eyes, thought for a while, and said:

"Dad and Mom, I don't want to marry far away, nor do I want to be despised and looked down upon by my husband's family. I want to be closer to you. The best choice is to marry Changsheng. I can repay you for saving my life and shut up those people..."

Shen Wu and Lu looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's eyes.

"Sanniang, you are such a good girl, there will definitely be a good family coming to marry you, don't think too much!" Lu advised softly.

"Well, your mother is right. You are still young and you shouldn't worry about these things." Shen Wu also persuaded slowly.

Shen Rong knew that this matter was too sudden for her parents and they would need some time to accept it, so she did not refute their words.

"Then the daughter will listen to her parents."

After the conversation between Shen Wu and his wife and Shen Rong, the day for Shen Yuan to get married arrived.

Shen Rong went to Shen Yuan's house a day in advance.

When Shen Yuan got married, Shen Erzhu's family did not plan to host a banquet for guests. Zhang took out an old red dress that she wore when she got married from the box and gave it to Shen Yuan.

As for dowry, there was none.

Shen Rong and Shen Yuan grew up together. Logically, when Shen Yuan got married, Shen Rong should go to accompany him no matter what. However, Shen Rong did not want to be criticized by others, so she had to come to see Shen Yuan in advance.

"Yuanyuan, if you go out tomorrow, I won't come. If people point fingers at us, it won't be good for us. This is the wedding gift I prepared especially for you."

As Shen Rong spoke, she took out two stones from her purse. These were two of the stones she had picked up before, just two ordinary stones.

In her heart, Shen Yuan was only worthy of such worthless things.

"I know you like colored stones, so I went to find them especially for you."

Shen Rong looked sincere when she said this.

Shen Yuan looked at the two stones for a long time without saying anything.

When she got married, Zhang took a betrothal gift of twenty taels of silver, but she did not prepare any dowry for her.

She thought that based on her relationship with Shen Sanniang, Shen Sanniang would give her some dowry when she got married, but in the end, all she got were two broken stones!

However, she had ruined her reputation by causing Shen Sanniang to fall into the water because of a stone, and now she couldn't say no.

"Thank you, Sanniang. If you don't want to come, then don't come. I won't blame you."

Shen Yuan also didn't want to be accused of stealing her best sister's man, and she didn't want Shen Sanniang to see her embarrassment when she got married. It would be best if Shen Sanniang didn't show up.
