Chapter 41 – Like (1)

Shen Ziqiao felt that she was actually in a very difficult situation.

Sheng Peiyin wanted her to loathe Liu Yunmeng, but if Old Madam was to know that she disliked Liu Yunmeng, she would definitely demand Shen Xiao to marry Liu Yunmeng by all possible means.

Truly difficult…..

In the end, how to ensure Sheng Peiyin did not get what she wanted and also annoyed that Old Madam?

A supporting character that did not bring vexation to others was not a good supporting character.

Sheng Peiyin often came to see her these days. Though she did not often talk about Liu Yunmeng, she would inject various compliments and appreciations in between those conversations. If it was the former Shen Ziqiao, she would never be able to tolerate the commendations of those women who wished to marry Shen Xiao. At this moment, she would definitely not beaming with smiles listening to Sheng Peiyin eulogize Liu Yunmeng, but would have certainly filled with much hatred and perhaps might already have personally gone to the Liu’s, to condemn Liu Yunmeng thoroughly.

Could it be that Shen Ziqiao actually likes Liu Yunmeng very much? Sheng Peiyin inwardly suspected.

While both were having their own thoughts, Old Madam Shen had coincidentally met Madam Liu at Thousand Buddha Temple and gave a jade bangle to Liu Yunmeng.

Old Madam Shen was extremely satisfied with Liu Yunmeng. This kind of gentle and soft woman would be easy to control, even if they were not of one mind, it was still easier to manipulate her. Unlike the previous daughter-in-law who was unyielding and aggressive. Unfortunately, her eldest son only loved her which ultimately caused both her and her son to not share a mutual understanding.

Old Madam Shen’s mood would turn bad whenever she thought of Shen Ziqiao’s biological mother, Pan Shi.

“What did you just say?” Old Madam Shen did not know why she was reminiscing the past on the return journey from the Thousand Buddha Temple and did not pay attention to what Mama Li was saying.

Mama Li repeated the words she had just said earlier softly, “Just now nubi heard from Miss Liu’s personal maidservant that Third Miss went to Liu family a few days ago.”

Old Madam Shen questioned, “What about it?”

“I was told.…..Third Miss really likes Miss Liu and Miss Liu also gave her some of her handmade fermented plum.” Mama Li said, “It seems both of them get along pretty well.”

“That third girl knew I had met up with Madam Liu?” Old Madam Shen’s expression became solemn and her voice turned profoundly cold.

Mama Li then replied, “Perhaps she did know earlier, or else how could she have gone with Sheng’s third miss to meet Miss Liu. The maidservant, Cui Ping said they will go view the lotus together in the next two days.”

When Old Madam Shen heard what was said, the string of rosary beads in her hands were severed.

“I am afraid that after Miss Liu marries in, she will have a tacit understanding with Third Miss.” Mama Li continued talking, as she simply could not bear the sight of Third Miss living well. If Third Miss would have a good life then they, the servants who worked for Old Madam would not expect to live well anymore.

“Humph.” Old Madam Shen snorted coldly. Inauspicious things would only be ominous, thus only vexed her.

Once she reached home, Old Madam’s complexion somewhat sank when she heard that Sheng Peiyin was with Shen Ziqiao.

It would seem that the third girl’s drastic change was instigated by Sheng Peiyin.

Sheng Peiyin’s presence today was also to tell Shen Ziqiao that Old Madam Shen went to meet up with Liu Yunmeng in Thousand Buddha Temple.

“…..originally I wanted to look for Sister Yunmeng, but was told that she went to the Thousand Buddha Temple.” Sheng Peiyin looked at Shen Ziqiao’s expression when she revealed her original itinerary today about wishing to visit Liu Yunmeng but instead was told by Liu’s servant that she had gone to the Thousand Buddha Temple with Madam Liu.

She had heard from Shen Ziqiao that Old Madam Shen would also be going to the temple today, thus she immediately came to the Shen’s to do some probing.
