Chapter 515 I want to break off the marriage

Wen said with a smile: "I'm still young, it's okay, sitting is sitting anyway."

Shen Chongguang walked over and turned on the light for her.

Wen said: "Aren't you going to the study today?"

"Take a rest tomorrow, there is plenty of time." He sat cross-legged on the kang.

The maid in the corridor had never seen the third master treat his wife like this before, and there was tacit joy in her crooked eyebrows and eyes.

After all, the master's family is harmonious, and the servants are relatively relaxed.

Shen Yan waited for Shen Chongguang for a few days, and when she got up at noon, she saw his long follower carrying flower pots under the hanging flower door, she couldn't help asking: "Master, didn't you go out today?"

The long follower bowed his waist and said, "Master, take a rest today."

Shen Yan's heart skipped a beat when she heard this, she stood on the porch and thought about it, then she put aside everything at hand and called her maid to go to Xiexiangyuan.

Recently, a group of young people showed their demeanor in court, and Shen Chongguang no longer dared to be perfunctory. He took a break at noon, and it was rare that no one came to visit, so he got up and read in the study.

Chang Sui came in suddenly and said, "The third girl is here."

Shen Chongguang waved his hand, and when he looked up, he saw Shen Yan coming in the door.

"Is something wrong?" he asked.

Shen Yan clutched the silk, glanced at him, and said with a sinking heart, "Is father free right now? I have something to tell father."

Shen Chongguang didn't think much about it, and replied casually: "What's the matter? Tell me."

Chen Yan gritted her teeth, then raised the hem of her skirt, and knelt down on the hard floor tiles with her knees folded.

"I want to break off the engagement with Mr. Mei, and ask my father to make it happen."

"what!"

Shen Chongguang suspected that he had heard it wrong, and the soft tone just now raised his tone! "Can you say that again?!"

As soon as he roared, the servants outside the door also raised their hearts.

Shen Yan looked at the ground and said calmly: "I want to retire, I don't want to marry into the Mei family, please father to make it happen."

Looking at her, Shen Chongguang felt that his breath was on the tip of his heart, and he couldn't sink down, nor could he vomit out.

He has indeed been negligent towards the children of the Ji family these years, but it doesn't mean that he has never cared about his three children.

He and Master Mei have been classmates for many years. Although they have rarely seen each other these years, their friendship has never been lost.

When he met Mei Qiying at Mei's house that year, he immediately fell in love with this smart and cheerful boy. He thought of his sister Yan's boring temper, if he could be matched with such a man as a partner, then What a wonderful thing.

It happened that the Mei family and his wife had met little Chenyan before, so the matter was settled like this.

He has been writing to the Mei family all these years, and he has already known Mei Qiying's talent and name in his heart.

He is so outstanding, which makes his father feel much more at ease, thinking that Shen Yan didn't get much attention from him when she was a child, but now she has found a good home for him, and they will live happily ever after, so he is also happy in his heart.Also proud.

But he never expected that he attached so much importance to a marriage, so expected that the marriage he chose for her could make up for his mistakes in the past, but she actually proposed to call off the engagement at this juncture!
"You'd better tell me a reason, or I'll break your leg!"

He pointed at her so furiously that his voice floated up.

Last time, he vaguely sensed that she had such intentions, and thought that she should give up after the cruel words, but after a few days, she directly mentioned the divorce to him!
Shen Yan bit her lower lip, but raised her pale face instead: "My reason is that I don't want to marry him, I don't want to marry into the Mei family."

"what happened?!"

Wen Shi and Shen Qu rushed over when they heard the movement, and were shocked when they saw this scene.

"You don't want to marry into the Mei family, so who do you want to marry? Are you provoking other people outside!" Shen Chongguang was so angry that he didn't care about his wife filling the house in front of him, and directly scolded her.

"Master!" Wen quickly stepped forward to dissuade him.How can a father be so suspicious of his daughter?
Shen Yan's heart was cold because he suspected her misbehavior as soon as he opened his mouth.

This is the father who keeps caring about her!

Looking at a pot of orchids in front of her, she straightened her back and said, "I didn't provoke anyone, I just don't want to marry the Mei family.

"Father has never understood me, and he doesn't know what kind of person is suitable for me. He just decided my life in a few words based on your own wishes. I don't want to accept it, that's all."

She and Huo Jiu never started, so this is not a lie.

Regardless of whether she has a fate with Huo Jiu in the future, her marriage contract with the Mei family is her own business.This is basically two things.

"What a bastard!" Shen Chongguang scolded angrily.

Wen hurriedly pulled her back, and fanned him again.

After a few months of living together, although she had heard that the relationship between Shen Chongguang and his legitimate children was not good, it was the first time she saw their father and daughter quarreling.

Now seeing the determination on Shen Yan's face, she suddenly understood the root cause of her depression these days, it turned out that she was not satisfied with this marriage!
And I couldn't help but be thankful that I didn't talk too deeply that day, otherwise it would really annoy her.

Thinking like this, he kept persuading him: "It's not unreasonable for Sister Yan not to want to marry. The Mei family is far away from the capital. How can someone who is unfamiliar with the place of life feel at ease? If you have something to say, don't hurt me. broke my daughter's heart."

"After passing the sect, you are not familiar with the place, and you can still be unfamiliar with the place for the rest of your life?!——It's none of your business here, you go back to your room!"

Shen Yan's words really poked her heart, Shen Chongguang didn't care about anything, and kicked her out.

Wen Shi knew that his status was embarrassing, so he didn't say much, glanced at Shen Yan, and left the door without saying a word.

To the door, but never go far.

Since she can win the favor of everyone in the Shen family, she is naturally not a muddled person.

Although the Ji family lost their morals, the three children she left behind were all the descendants of the Shen family. No matter how much Shen Chongguang ignored them, it was not her stepmother who could watch the joke from the sidelines.

Not only can't this be the case, she also needs to be extra sincere, otherwise she will definitely not be respected by Shen Chongguang.

At this moment, Shen Yan's sudden proposal of retiring the engagement was beyond her expectation, and she also knew how optimistic Shen Chongguang was about this marriage.

Once they are allowed to be stiff here, and if Shen Chongguang does something that he can't regret, then how can she leave it clean?

Not to mention there are Shen Ruopu and Shen Xi staring at the Shen family above their heads.

Standing on the porch and thinking about it for a while, she called the maid: "Go and see if the old master has come back?
"If you come back, invite him to come over, and then go to the palace immediately to send a letter to Shi Zifei, saying that Sister Yan is having trouble with her father here."

The servant girl was a caring person who followed her, so she understood and arranged to go immediately.

Wen Shi clasped hands and wandered in the corridor, thinking that Shen Xi must not reply so soon, if Shen Chongguang really got angry here, she would not be able to stop her, if she really hurt Shen Yan, it would not end well.
