625 A Farce (6)
This solution almost made Shen Wan storm out in anger.
It was not uncommon for a legitimate daughter and an illegitimate daughter to serve the same husband. However, generally speaking, the legitimate daughter would be the first wife while the illegitimate daughter would be concubine. What the Wang family proposed was for them to be equal wives! Moreover, in order to hide it, Shen Yue could only have a low-key wedding, while Shen Dongling, the illegitimate daughter, snatched away the honor and glory that Shen Yue deserved!
This was humiliation!
Shen Wan rejected flatly, but the Wang family’s attitude was also very firm. It was not their fault that the bride was wrong. Now that Shen Dongling and Wang Bi were getting along quite well, they did not care about Shen Yue. However, Shen Yue could not afford to delay the wedding. If this continued, the one who would suffer would be Shen Yue.
Therefore, Shen Wan was a little hesitant. Because of this matter, he had quarreled with Chen Ruoqiu a few times.
As Shen Miao listened to Bai Lu telling her about the things that had been reported back from the Shen family, she smiled from ear to ear. Shen Miao had always been calm and rarely looked as happy as she was now.
“Miss, do you find it interesting?” Bai Lu said, “Second Miss shot herself in the foot this time. She even caused Third Master to be in a difficult spot.”
“In my opinion, Third Miss is the winner.” Shuang Jiang said, “Not only did Third Miss become the first wife, but she also seems to be liked by everyone in the Wang family. She even brought Concubine Wan over to live with her.”
“It’s too early to say who’s the winner.” Bai Lu shook her head. “If Second Miss marries into the Wang family in the end, although the two of them are equal wives, there’s still a difference between the legitimate and the illegitimate daughters. Third Miss only has a mother who is a concubine, but Second Miss has the third branch of the Shen family standing behind her. The Wang family will be more biased towards Second Miss, right? Third Miss has the momentum now, but there’s a long way to go.”
Shen Miao smiled and said, “You are wrong. Third Sister is a capable person.”
Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang looked at Shen Miao at the same time. Shen Miai said, “Even if Shen Yue really marries into the Wang family one day, she won’t be comparable to Shen Dongling. I think the reason why the Wang Family treats the third branch so coldly is probably because they know that the marriage exchange was proposed by Shen Yue. Which man in the world will like a wife who has someone else in her heart? Shen Yune has already lost.”
“I’m afraid Wang Bi won’t even let her give birth to his children. Although there are differences between the legitimate and illegitimate daughters, they’re both equal wives. Whoever gives birth to the child will naturally have more say.” Shen Miao said indifferently, “Besides, with Shen Yun’s brain, how can she beat Shen Dongling? Shen Dongling can make Wang Bi not blame her and even bring Concubine Wan out of the Shen family. How can such a smart and capable person be defeated by Shen Yue?”
Bai Lu and Shuang Jiang were stunned as they listened to the analysis. After a while, Shuang Jing said, “It seems like Third Miss is really a powerful person.”
“She’s the only one in the Shen family who actually has a brain.” Shen Miao said, “Help me grind the ink.”
Bai Lu went to find some ink. As she ground it, she saw Shen Miao take out a pen and paper, as if she was going to write something. Bai Lu asked, “Miss, are you going to write a letter?”
Shen Miao nodded.
Naturally, Shen Miao was happy to see Shen Yue making a scene and shooting herself in the foot this time. However, she did not forget that in her previous life, the third branch also contributed a lot to the fall of the first branch of the Shen family.
One day, she would get back at them. In fact, she did not want to take action to bring down the third branch from the beginning to the end, but if the third branch walked to the cliff on their own, Shen Miao would not mind giving them one last push.
Shen Wan and Chen Ruoqiu quarreled all day long. At this moment, he needed the comfort of his confidante the most.
It was time for Chang Zaiqing to show up.
