Chapter 270 Discussing Marriage
There were quite a few maidservants watching around, Ye Lingwu didn't want to get too involved with Shen Zhan, so she narrowed her eyes and said, "It's getting late, Master Hou should come back soon, and Lingwu won't send any more."

After saying that, Ye Lingwu passed him and was about to return home.

"Master Shen."

At the same time, Jiang Yuan stepped out of the mansion, and said naturally: "I am going back to Ziluobu Village. If Xiaohou Shen is on the way, would you like to go with me?"

Ye Lingwu was startled.What does this person want to do? !

"Then please trouble Master Jiang." Shen Zhan did not refuse, turned to look at Ye Lingwu, and said in a strong tone: "Miss Ye, please come along."

"..." Ye Lingwu.

After half a stick of incense, Ye Lingwu got into Jiang Yuan's carriage, accompanied by Shen Zhan.

There was a layer of embarrassment in the quiet carriage.

Seeing that the two of them were silent, Ye Lingwu said bluntly, "Well, where does Lord Hou live these days? If you don't come today, I thought you had returned to the capital."

Shen Zhan raised his eyes and glanced at her lightly: "I've never seen you speak so respectfully before. I'm only a few years older than you, so I don't need to be called 'you'."

"..."

Ye Lingwu tugged at the corner of her sleeve, and the air fell into silence again. She pursed her lips and said, "When is Lord Hou going to return to Beijing?"

Shen Zhan didn't answer, but turned his head to look at Jiang Yuan, his tone suddenly became serious: "Scholar Jiang, there is something I want to discuss with you."

Jiang Yuan calmed down and said, "Even though Young Master Shen said, as long as I can do it, I will agree."

"It's better for Scholar Jiang to say less about this kind of thing in the future. Otherwise, if you can do it but don't do it, it's not a breach of trust." Shen Zhan said.

Jiang Yuan was stunned for a moment, then said: "Young Master Shen is very right, I don't know what Young Master Shen wants to discuss?"

"Discuss your resignation with the Ye family."

Jiang Yuan was stunned again.This person...doesn't turn a corner at all? !
Ye Lingwu's jaw dropped in shock, and she said, "Master Hou, this is a major matter related to the two families, why is it your turn to discuss it?"

Shen Zhan looked at her and said, "Then who do I discuss with? Your stepmother, or your second uncle and aunt?"

Ye Lingwu choked and was completely speechless.

Jiang Yuan was silent for a moment, and rarely smiled and said, "I have already asked Mrs. Shen for consent to this marriage. Besides, no one in Yuzhou now knows that Qingqing and I are fiancés. It is not appropriate to withdraw at this moment."

Shen Zhan's eyes were deep: "Since it's a discussion, there must be a deal to be able to do it. As long as the Jiang University scholar agrees to withdraw from the Ye family, the Jiang University scholar's career in the court will be smoother in the future, how about it?"

Jiang Yuan was dumbfounded; but Ye Lingwu was lucky to lean against the wall of the car in time, otherwise he might not be able to sit still and fall off the stool at this moment.

The two never expected that Shen Zhan would trade public affairs for private interests.

"I really don't understand what Xiaohou Shen means. You can do as much as you can. Whether your career will be successful or not depends on your ability." Jiang Yuan sneered again and again.

Ye Lingwu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Master Hou, don't be confused, how can this court affairs be confused with the private affairs of the children?"

Shen Zhan's long eyebrows slanted, staring at the girl, his thick brown eyes half dark and half bright: "Then do I have any other options?"

The room was silent, Jiang Yuan was stunned, and Shaoye Lingwu was absent-minded.

There was a sound, and Jiang Yuan smiled, and said: "Young Master Shen said, those who don't know what Qingqing and I have been wronged after they got married. I can't compare with Young Master Shen in the official family, but I am determined to marry Qing When I was Qing, I already had my parents' consent, it's not a joke."

Shen Zhan said in a loud voice: "Since I am willing to discuss with Jiang University scholar, what I said must not be a joke."

Jiang Yuan avoided his gaze and said, "I have disappointed Young Lord Shen. No matter how we discuss this matter, I will definitely not agree to it."

Shen Zhan's face was gloomy.

"Master Hou..." Ye Lingwu made a fuzzy voice, "I agreed to this marriage over and over again. You don't have to do it for me..."

Before she finished speaking, a fiery big palm covered the back of Ye Lingwu's hand, holding her hand tightly.

The force was so strong that it hurt to hold her faintly.

Ye Lingwu lowered her head and saw the distinct joints and bulging veins on that hand.

Shen Zhan endured it. During the days when he didn't see her, he thought of many ways, but the facts told him that someone was really so heartless.

The room is quiet.

Jiang Yuan glanced at the pair of intertwined hands, her heart was complicated. If she let go, it might be good for Ye Lingwu to marry Shen Zhan, but she couldn't. The fate of the Jiang family cannot be controlled by anyone other than her. hands.

"Boom, boom, boom—"

There was a sound outside the carriage, followed by Yue Yang's voice: "Master Hou, let's go to the restaurant."

Shen Zhan pursed his lips, looked at Ye Lingwu who was hanging his head, got up and opened the door to leave.

Standing on the north side of the quiet market place, Shen Zhan and Yue Yang watched the carriage go away, the wind was blowing on their bodies, only the hem of their clothes fluttered.

"...Young master, is it really worth it for you to be a cousin?" Yue Yang couldn't help but wonder, and secretly slandered Ye Lingwu's heartlessness in his heart.

The two of them looked at Shen Zhan getting drunk in the restaurant, which completely overturned Yue Yang's view that Shen Zhan was always self-disciplined and introspective to the point of abnormality in the past ten years.

The seemingly indifferent and heartless person is more embarrassed than anyone else after being in trouble.

Inside the carriage.

Ye Lingwu kept her head down.

Seeing her depressed, Jiang Yuan said, "Do you regret it?"

Ye Lingwu's shoulders slumped, her eyes were slightly red when she raised her head, and she said with a sob: "You know, I have never been firmly chosen by anyone."

Jiang Yuan frowned, deliberated, struggled, and thought for a long time before letting out a sigh of relief: "Don't think too much, if he could marry you, your mother and Lord Shen had already been together back then. , the position of being the mistress is the most important thing, the biggest difference between a woman and a man is that what the girl in the boudoir gets after going all out, is far different from what I thought."

——What she wanted to say was not these things, but the words changed when she got to her mouth. In the end, she still couldn't afford to gamble, and chose to hold people firmly in her hands.

"My reputation has never been very good, I don't need you to remind me, I understand." Ye Lingwu laughed at herself.

Jiang Yuan narrowed her eyes: "Everything that people in this world can live well has to pay a price. Since Qingqing is tired of living in the deep house, then she shouldn't waver in her determination."

Ye Lingwu didn't respond, instead she opened the warm curtain and let the cold wind pour in, which gave her a feeling of breaking free from the depression, and finally felt a moment of relaxation in a trance.

Jiuyou Pavilion other courtyard.

Liu Yuping was so angry that she kept throwing things in the room, and Ye Jinxiao shivered under the blanket in the next room, even if she covered her ears tightly, she could still hear Liu Yuping's non-stop cursing.

No matter how comforted her maid Xiao Qu was, she couldn't stop Ye Jinxiao from crying endlessly under the covers.

"...That bitch, I must kill her! I must kill her!" Ye Jinxiao murmured secretly, her eyes scarlet red.

Hearing the muttering in the bed, Xiao Qu couldn't help but gasped in fright, and persuaded in a low voice: "Second girl, let's stop fighting with the eldest girl, we won't be able to fight."

"roll!"

Ye Jinxiao muffled: "If you want to speak for her, get the hell out of Jiuyou Pavilion!"

When Xiao Qu heard the words, he immediately fell silent.
