Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 50
in the boudoir.

Duanmu Xiuxiang was sitting on the bed, crying with her handkerchief in her hand, a red mark on her neck was particularly eye-catching.

Sitting next to her, Shen was so distressed that she couldn't help wiping her tears, and she blamed Duanmu: "Xiang'er is your own sister, why are you willing to abuse her like this?"

Duanmu Yang stood in front of him with a black face, with heavy anger condensed on his face, and he blurted out a retort at the moment, "If you hadn't spoiled the old man so lawlessly that he had no brains to cause such a disaster , why was I forced to go this far?"

Shen knew that she was wrong about her youngest son, but she felt sorry for her daughter, so she immediately weakened her voice and begged: "Yang'er! I know it's all my fault, and it's all because the old man is ignorant, but Xiang'er she ——You should be considerate of mother this time, this time——you let your sister go!”

Duanmu Yang never expected that at this point, he would still be held back by his mother and sister, with a sullen face, and kept biting him hard.

"Mother! I don't want to marry into the Tang family, and I don't want to marry someone surnamed Tang as my successor. Why should I pay off their debts to cover up their embarrassment?" Duanmu Xiuxiang shook her head. Shen's arms started to cry, with a look of pear blossoms and rain, distraught, "I don't like him, I don't want to marry him, mother, are you going to force your daughter to die with third brother?"

Seeing her daughter like this, Shen's heart ached even more.

"Yang'er—" she looked at Duanmu Yang beggingly.

The anger in Duanmu Yang's heart could no longer be suppressed.

He kept himself low, and finally made Tang Ao let go. If he kept going back on his word, then the relationship with the Tang family would really never be repaired.

"Yang'er—" Seeing her daughter crying fiercely, Shen could only plead for mercy again.

"I've already settled this marriage for you. You're right. Either you die, or—" Duanmu Yang said with a gloomy face, looking coldly at the dumbfounded Duanmu Xiuxiang, "As long as you There is still a sigh of relief, when the day comes, you have to get on the sedan chair for me obediently!"

After speaking, he flung his sleeves and walked out of the yard like a hurricane.

It was the first time for Duanmu Xiuxiang to experience such a ruthless face of her third brother, and she forgot to shed tears.

After a while, she turned her head and fell into Shen's arms, crying loudly, "Mother, I won't marry, and I won't marry even if I die."

Shen Shi knew about Duanmuyang's temper, and she knew that she was powerless in this matter, even if she couldn't bear it in her heart, she could only bite the bullet and persuade: "Xiang'er, what happened this time, your third brother really There are difficulties. The second girl of the Song family has entered the palace, and we have been suppressed by them in everything. If we want to break with the Tang family—"

"I don't listen! I don't want to listen!" Duanmu Xiuxiang didn't care about this, covered her ears and shook her head desperately.

Knowing that her so-called suicide attempt was just to scare people, Shen took the medicine bowl from Mama Chen's hand and fed it to her.

Duanmu Xiuxiang turned away angrily.

Chen was helpless, sighed, got up and walked out, and said to Chen's mother, "You can stay with her tonight!"

If even Mrs. Shen doesn't care about it, then there is really no room for maneuver in this matter.

"Mother, don't go, I—I have something to tell you!" Duanmu Xiuxiang jumped out of bed barefoot in a panic, and stopped her.

"Xiang'er, don't be self-willed anymore—" Shen patted the back of her hand distressedly, and said earnestly.

"Mother, I—" Duanmu Xiuxiang bit her lips hard, her face was flushed red, her eyes were messy and she didn't dare to touch Shen's eyes, she struggled for a while, and then she gritted her teeth and said, "I have someone I like. people!"

There was a buzz in Shen's mind, and she smashed the medicine bowl in her hand with a bang.

She suddenly widened her eyes, staring at Duanmu Xiuxiang in disbelief, "What did you say?"

"Mother?" Duanmu Xiuxiang didn't expect her reaction to be so big, and she was shocked, but at the moment she was nervous and excited, she lowered her eyes shyly, and repeated in a low voice: "I have someone I like, I I know that my mother loves me, please let my mother do it."

After finishing speaking, he bent his knees and knelt down in front of Shen shi.

To Shen, this incident was like a bolt from the blue.

Her daughter, the daughter of the Duanmu family's heirloom, is actually giving and receiving privately?

"Mother, in fact, I—" Duanmu Xiuxiang went all out, straightened her back and was about to speak again.

"You still don't shut up!" Shen's body swayed, confused, and finally let out a low growl that was almost miserable. She raised her hand, but she didn't slap her down while she was upset, she just covered her face. Looking at Duanmu Xiuxiang with an angry look, he said: "Your third brother is right, I spoiled you and Tang'er. Marriage is a matter of parents' order and matchmaker's words. I have already made the decision for you. Once it's done, you can get married with peace of mind, and stop talking nonsense!"

As Shen Shi said, she rushed out of the door in a panic.

Duanmu Xiuxiang was completely stunned, she never thought that she would express her heart, but it would strengthen Shen's determination to marry her to Tang Ao, and she knelt there in a daze, unable to react for a long time.

"Ma'am——" Seeing that Shen's mood was unstable, Chen's mother immediately chased her out.

Shen-shi hurried out of the yard, then stopped abruptly, turned her head and said to Chen's mother with a stern expression, "You are here to stare!"

"Ah?" Mother Chen was taken aback and said in disbelief, "Miss Nine must have found an excuse because she didn't want to marry into the Tang family. Ma'am, don't tell me—"

"Where did you talk nonsense? I told you to keep an eye on it, and you just keep an eye on it!" Shen said angrily.

Her own daughter, she knew it herself.

Even if Duanmu Xiuxiang was forced by this marriage, the shy and timid look in her eyes just now was not fake.

But my daughter is a lady who doesn't go out of her door and doesn't go out of her door. Who will she see right?

In Shen's heart, she already had a bold guess, but because the matter was so important, and she had a bit of luck in her mind, she didn't say much.

"Yes!" Seeing that she got angry, Mother Chen didn't dare to say more, and hurriedly agreed.

Here, after Song Chuxi and Duanmuqi finished their dinner, Duanmuqi looked at her and said, "I see you've had enough sleep too, so I'll take you around to familiarize yourself with the environment and help you digest your food?"
