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

Mrs. Shen took a few deep breaths and stood up tremblingly, "Come back here."

"Your marriage with Miss Wang has been settled. There is no room for regret. Whether you are willing or not, you have to marry her." Mrs. Shen's voice was filled with unquestionable majesty.

Seeing Shen Siyan was indifferent, she slammed her hand on the table and said, "I will ask the emperor to grant me marriage."

"If you continue to be so unwise and ignore my advice, I will never let Ye Yunzi set foot in the Shen Mansion." As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Siyan paused slightly, but finally stepped out of the door firmly.

Mrs. Shen was the only one left in the room. She was trembling with anger, but she could do nothing about it.

Nanny Qin hurried forward to comfort her and helped Madam Shen sit down: "Madam, don't be angry. It's not good to hurt your body... The young master is just overwhelmed by his emotions now. He will understand when he calms down."

"Miss Wang is a talented lady in the capital, as beautiful as a fairy. Who can not like her? When the young master sees her, he will find that the young lady of the Su Mansion cannot compare to her at all." After listening to Nanny Qin's words, Mrs. Shen's mood calmed down a little.

"You're right. It seems we have to find an opportunity for them to meet..." However, compared to this marriage, Shen Siyan's previous words about the court struggle made her more uneasy.

Does he know something?

Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen frowned, feeling uneasy, and then stood up and walked out.

"Madam, where are you going?" asked Nanny Qin.

Mrs. Shen did not answer and walked quickly towards the main courtyard.

As soon as I entered the room, I saw a man in his forties sitting upright on a rosewood chair with a serious expression. Next to him sat the white-haired former tutor, Old Master Shen.

"Old Master, Big Brother." Mrs. Shen nodded in greeting, then signaled the nanny beside her to dismiss the servants and close the doors and windows.

"Did Si Yan discover anything about the Shen Mansion?" Mrs. Shen asked solemnly.

Old Master Shen stroked his beard and said coldly, "Si Yan has been smart since he was young, so it's not surprising that he noticed something. The last time the secret guards were operating, they felt that they were being followed, so I'm afraid it was him who did it."

"Old Master..." Mrs. Shen looked worried.

"Don't worry, since he knows it, it means he is on our side. Find an opportunity to tell him the truth, it will be much easier to act this way." Although Old Master Shen said this, Mrs. Shen was still worried.

Shen Siyan's attitude today doesn't seem to be on their side. What if something unexpected happens...

"With Si Yan's help, our plan can be advanced faster." Old Master Shen said confidently.

"How is Si Yan's marriage going?" Shen Yangyan's voice was low and majestic.

Madam Shen replied, "I have already been engaged to Miss Wang from Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion. We are just waiting for the Emperor's blessing to marry. Then the marriage will be settled."

Shen Yangyan frowned slightly, "Although the Marquis' Mansion is powerful, our plan still requires a large amount of silver."

Si Yan's marriage was not an impulse decision, but a well-considered decision made by the family in order to enhance the status of the Shen family.

"Uncle, please rest assured. The issue of the silver has been resolved..." Mrs. Shen responded confidently.

"Oh?"

"It's the young lady from the Su family." She said affirmatively.

As long as Si Yan can marry Ye Yunzi, all problems seem to be solved.

Shen Yangyan nodded in agreement, "Then I'll leave this matter to you."

Mrs. Shen's determination is unshakable. Although the Shen family appears to be calm on the surface, the inside is turbulent with undercurrents.

Shen Siyan lowered his head and said nothing, clenching his fists in his sleeves. Could it be that in this life, he still couldn't control his own destiny?

There were few pedestrians on the streets after the rain and the ground was wet.

Shen Siyan walked slowly forward alone, feeling lost and not knowing where to go. His figure was stretched out by the puddles on the road.

Finally, he stopped outside a house and looked at the scene inside from afar, his eyes becoming increasingly profound.

After standing there for a long time, there was almost no one in the alley.

Until a maid who was fetching water noticed something unusual and quietly walked to the wall to look around.

After recognizing Shen Siyan, the maid immediately dropped the bucket in her hand and hurried back to the yard to report.

"Miss, Miss, Young Master Shen is here." The maid reported breathlessly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Yunzi immediately stood up and asked, "Has Patriarch Shen arrived?"

"Yes, waiting outside the back door." The maid confirmed.

A trace of joy flashed in Ye Yunzi's eyes, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Why didn't you notify me in advance... Go and greet him quickly, no, I will go out to meet him myself."

In a panic, Ye Yunzi almost forgot to put on a coat. Yu Shu quickly stopped her, put a cloak on her, and reminded her to be careful not to catch a cold.

Ye Yunzi walked briskly through the winding corridors and several courtyards, and finally arrived at the remote back door. With a creak, the wooden door was gently pushed open.

Standing outside the door was Shen Siyan, dressed in white and with black hair. Even with his simple attire, he still looked extraordinary.

Ye Yunzi's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and she realized how much she missed him.

"You're here." Thousands of words rolled through her heart, but when he really appeared in front of her, she could only say these three words.

Shen Siyan smiled slightly, his eyes like two clear springs. He quietly stretched out his hand, waiting for her response.

Seeing this, Ye Yunzi also reached out to shake his hand. His hand was a little cold, as if he had been standing outside for a long time and felt a chill all over his body.

Just as she frowned and wanted to ask, Shen Siyan gently pulled her into his arms.

"Yunzi, I miss you so much." He whispered in her ear, his voice gentle and affectionate.

This scene made Yu Shu, who was standing at the back door, blush and her heart beat fast, and she quickly closed the door.

The maids in the courtyard looked in curiously, but could not see anything because the door was closed.

One of the maids couldn't help but ask, "Sister Yu Shu, are the young lady and Master Shen very familiar with each other?"

Yu Shu forced a smile, but secretly thought: It's more than just familiarity! If someone saw the young lady throwing herself into the arms of Master Shen, that would be terrible.

"Go away and get to work! If you don't do well, I will ask the Madam to punish you." Yu Shu said sternly.

"Oh, no... Let's go now." The maids immediately dispersed, and silence returned to the back door.

Yu Shu then breathed a sigh of relief, quietly took a peek through the crack in the door, then pretended not to see anything and continued to guard there to make sure no one disturbed them.

Being held in Shen Siyan's arms, Ye Yunzi's face was pressed against his chest, feeling the coolness of his body.

He seemed a little unusual today, and this feeling reminded her of his reaction when she saw the woman under the eaves of the pharmacy on the street a few days ago.

"Shen..." Ye Yunzi looked up at him, wanting to say something but stopping herself.

Finally, with a firm look in her eyes, she mustered up the courage to look up at him: "When my hair reaches my waist, you..." Before she could finish her words, she saw the pain flashing in his eyes.

His eyes became empty, and when he looked down at her, there was an imperceptible sadness on his face.
