Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

After saying that, Mrs. Wang stood up and said goodbye.

Mrs. Shen personally saw the guests off to the door and looked at the carriage going further and further away with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

"What a match made in heaven, Marquis Dingyuan's Mansion..." Mrs. Shen whispered to herself with a hint of a smile on her lips.

Nanny Qin hesitated for a moment before speaking, "But Madam, when we mentioned marriage last time, the Second Young Master didn't seem to be happy about it."

Mrs. Shen frowned slightly, and the raindrops gently tapped the oil-paper umbrella, making a crisp sound. "Si Yan has someone in his heart, and he likes Miss Su."

"The Su family should not be underestimated..." Madam Shen's tone became solemn, "They actually took out 300,000 taels of silver in one go. Their strength is beyond imagination."

After some secret investigation, the Shen family learned about Ye Yunzi's generous help.

"What should I do? The powerful Dingyuan Marquis Mansion, the wealthy Su family... It's really hard to choose." Mrs. Shen sighed, looking quite troubled.

"It would be great if the daughters of both families could become members of our family." Mrs. Shen clenched the umbrella handle, a worried look on her face.

Seeing this, Nanny Qin took a step closer and suggested, "Madam, I have an idea."

"any solution?"

"The Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion is of noble status. In comparison, although the Su family is wealthy, Ye Yunzi has already divorced and it is difficult for her to find a good husband. It would be better for the young master to take her as a concubine, so that he can marry the daughters of two families at the same time."

When Mrs. Shen heard this, a complex light flashed in her eyes and she fell into deep thought.

There was a glimmer of shrewdness in Mrs. Shen's eyes, and she was secretly calculating in her heart.

After a moment, she nodded and said, "You are right. It is a good idea to let Ye Yunzi be your concubine. But the question is, will she agree?"

"Today, Xiao Si saw the young master and Miss Ye walking together in the rain. The affection between the two seemed very deep. I believe Miss Ye has been deeply attracted to the young master. If she could become his woman, she would definitely be more than happy."

Mrs. Shen smiled slightly with the corners of her mouth raised.

Nanny Qin carefully observed Madam Shen's expression and asked tentatively, "Should we send someone to the Su family to give them a hint first?"

"No hurry, wait until the marriage with Dingyuan Marquis is finalized."

"Yes, Madam, you have thought it through..." Nanny Qin knew that if Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion knew that the Shen family intended to take Ye Yunzi as a concubine, they would probably not be happy. It would be better to keep this matter secret for the time being and propose marriage when the time is right.

In the darkness of the night, Ye Feng just came out of the yard and happened to hear the conversation between Madam Shen and Nanny Qin. His face changed slightly, and he quickly and silently retreated and told his master the news he heard.

Shen Siyan had just finished showering, his wet hair was dripping with water, sliding down his cheeks to his chest.

His face was full of gloom, and his eyes were cold. "Take a concubine?"

Want to make Yunzi a concubine?

He punched the wooden barrel hard, and with a loud crash, the barrel broke and hot water splashed all over the floor.

"Yunzi can never be my concubine." He said through gritted teeth, clenching his fists.

On the other side, Ye Yunzi also finished washing up and sat in front of the mirror.

Yu Shu was combing her silky black hair and exclaimed, "Miss, your hair is so beautiful."

Ye Yunzi stared at herself in the mirror, but the face of a woman under the eaves of the medicine shop gradually emerged in front of her. The woman lowered her brows and smiled slightly, and she looked somewhat familiar.

"Where on earth have I seen her before?"

"Who are you talking about, young lady?" Yu Shu asked curiously.

Ye Yunzi shook her head, "Nothing."

The rain outside the window was getting heavier and heavier. The raindrops hit the eaves, and the world seemed even quieter.

Yu Shu finished combing her hair and prepared to wash the clothes that were wet by the rain. "Strange, Miss came back with an umbrella, how come her clothes are soaked?"

Ye Yunzi blushed when she heard this and recalled the scene on the street.

Shen Siyan insisted on using his coat to shield her from the wind and rain while sending her home. The two of them held each other tightly, feeling each other's heartbeats. At that moment, she felt nervous and sweet.

"Miss, why is your face so red? Did you catch a cold? I'll go get you some ginger soup right away." Yu Shu said anxiously.

Ye Yunzi did not answer, but felt her cheeks burning.

She walked to the window and opened it. The outside world was shrouded in rain and blurred. Ye Yunzi stretched out her hand and let the cold rain touch her fingertips gently.

Her mind was filled with the image of Shen Siyan. Whenever he came close and whispered in her ear, his warm breath always made her heart beat faster.

"Shen Siyan..." When she thought of this name, her heart was in turmoil.

Will he propose marriage next year when she turns fifteen?

Thinking of this, Ye Yunzi's heart began to beat like a deer, and she unconsciously touched her chest.

At this time, Yu Shu came in with a bowl of hot ginger soup, "Miss, drink some ginger soup while it's hot to warm your body."

"It's so cold, why do you still have the window open? Be careful not to catch a cold." As she said that, Yu Shu quickly closed the window.

Ye Yunzi picked up the bowl and was about to drink, but she saw herself in the reflection of the ginger soup. Now, she is no longer the daughter of the Ye family, but a child who has lost the protection of her father...

In terms of background, she could not be compared with the Shen family at all.

In this era of marrying someone of equal status, even if they have a mutual affection for each other, will the Shen family really accept her as Shen Siyan's wife? If the marriage fails...

Thinking of this, her mood became even heavier. Her hands trembled and the ginger soup splashed onto her hands. "Ah." She cried out in pain and quickly put down the bowl.

"Miss."

Yu Shu quickly took out a handkerchief to wipe her, but the back of Ye Yunzi's hand was already red from being burned. "Oh, it's all red! It's all my negligence. I didn't realize the soup was so hot. I'll get the ointment now."

Ye Yunzi remained silent. What made her feel more depressed than the pain in her hands was the uneasiness in her heart.

Yu Shu carefully applied ointment to her wound and blew gently a few times, "Miss, does it still hurt now?"

Ye Yunzi didn't seem to hear it, and her mind was obviously wandering far away.

"Miss?" Yu Shu called again.

Meanwhile, Madam Shen was arranging the marriage between Shen Siyan and the daughter of Dingyuan Marquis. "Madam Qin, please ask Master Hui'an to come over tomorrow to see if their birth dates are compatible, and then enshrine the result in the ancestral temple."

"Yes, ma'am." Nanny Qin lowered her head.

"Marriage? Who dares to arrange my marriage on their own?" Shen Siyan stepped over the threshold, his eyes as cold as ice, staring directly at the two people in front of him.

Mrs. Shen didn't seem to care about his anger. After taking a sip of tea, the corners of her mouth slightly raised: "I'm talking about your marriage with Miss Wang. Today, Mrs. Wang came to visit in person and said that she wanted to find a good day to settle your marriage as soon as possible."

Shen Siyan clenched his fists, veins bulged, a rare expression of anger appeared on his cold face, and his eyes were fixed on Mrs. Shen.

"I won't marry her."

"Maybe a good time would be when the snow melts in spring." Mrs. Shen put down her teacup nonchalantly and said in a low voice.
