Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 102 Riding a Horse
Cuicui apologized to Shen Mengwu in her heart. She was really forced to throw dirty water on Shen Mengwu's head.

As expected, when Shen Mengyan heard Shen Mengwu's name, her face suddenly became distorted. Under the dim candlelight, her cheeks were burnt by the flames and became charred, pitted and bumpy, and her expression was distorted, looking extremely terrifying.

Cuicui didn't even dare to look at Shen Mengyan, for fear that she would accidentally anger Miss Mengyan, which would then result in an even worse fate for her.

"What a Shen Mengwu! Let her wait for me. I will definitely take revenge."

Shen Mengyan tried to touch her cheek with trembling hands, but found that her limbs were all burned and her hair was dry and frizzy, leaving only a few strands of hair.

The resentment in her heart grew exponentially. Shen Mengyan had long forgotten what happened today. It was entirely her own fault. She subconsciously blamed all the responsibility on Shen Mengwu.

The second wife of the Shen family walked in.

When he saw Shen Mengyan looking like a female ghost, he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted in his heart. How could she give birth to such a stupid daughter?
Either you don't have any intention of harming others, or you have to do it cleanly and efficiently since you have decided to do it. You have to let Shen Mengwu catch you. Now look what happens. Not only can you not get justice for Shen Mengyan, but you have to apologize to Shen Mengwu.

When the second wife of the Shen family thought of Madam Shen’s smug expression, she felt as sick as if she had eaten a fly.

The look in his eyes when he looked at Shen Mengyan became more and more displeased.

"Mother!"

As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw this horrible appearance. Shen Mengyan was very panicked and scared. She subconsciously went to Madam Shen Er's arms to seek comfort. However, Madam Shen Er was uncontrollable and took two steps back with obvious disgust in her eyes.

Shen Mengyan felt heartbroken when she noticed Mrs. Shen Er's little trick.

Dislike her!
The violent psychology spread uncontrollably in her chest, making Shen Mengyan eager to do something, wanting to see blood, in order to suppress the manic emotions in her heart.

Shen Mengyan knew that if she showed anything at this moment, Madam Shen would definitely send someone to keep an eye on her and become wary of her, so Shen Mengyan pretended not to notice and curled up in Madam Shen's arms, acting as if she was extremely dependent on her mother.

"Mother, you must avenge me. It's all Shen Mengwu's fault. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be like this."

"I'm in pain. My whole body is in pain."

Shen Mengyan's voice was miserable. The dim candlelight shone on Shen Mengyan, and she looked like a female ghost crawling out of hell, making people unable to suppress their fear.

Even if she was Shen Mengyan's biological mother, she would be scared when she saw her horrible appearance.

However, Second Madam Shen still maintained a gentle demeanor and pretended to sigh, "Mengyan, you know, mother has never had much status in the family. She's not as respected as my eldest sister-in-law, nor does she have the power of a housekeeper like my eldest sister-in-law."

"Even after something like this, I can't seek justice for you. You still need to apologize to Shen Mengwu."

"Mother is also very angry, but what can we do while living under someone else's roof? Mengyan, just apologize. Only then can mother ask my sister-in-law to invite an imperial physician to you."

Everything he said was for Shen Mengyan's own good.

Shen Mengyan clenched her fists and forced herself to suppress her anger.

Bullshit, it's all bullshit.

My mother is the second wife of the Shen family, how could she not even be able to invite an imperial physician? Do you really think she is so good?
No matter how angry she was, Shen Mengyan had to try her best to appear calm, for fear that Mrs. Shen would notice something was wrong. If she became like this, it would be impossible for her to have a career in politics.

In this case, I have to think of another way. Now there is no one around me who can be used, so I can only trust my mother. Mother and daughter should be the closest people in the world, but they are calculating against each other.

……

The next day.

The Plum Blossom Garden became extremely lively early in the morning. Maids and nannies were constantly tidying up things, which were exquisite and luxurious. The carriage was also cleaned spotlessly, and the horses were well fed and rested.

Hundreds of guards, holding swords at their waists, stood silently behind the carriage to escort Madam Shen on her journey.

Shen Mengning wore a green chest-length skirt, which showed the unique playfulness of a little girl, yet also a cool temperament. Her skin was so tender that it seemed as if water could be squeezed out of it. Her cheeks were not made up, but it was enough to show the charm of a young girl.

Shen Mengwu wore a red tight-fitting outfit and insisted on sitting on the horse despite Mrs. Shen's dissuasion. Her hair was stood up high, and her chivalrous spirit and unrestrained temperament were fully displayed. Her cheeks were like the brightest sun in the world.

The two sisters each have their own characteristics, and they do not overshadow each other. Instead, they attract everyone's attention.

Shen Fuyu wore a light yellow dress, with a hint of gorgeousness between her eyebrows. She would definitely be a peerless beauty when she grew up. Because she was young, her eyes were very lively, making her look very clever, like a little fox in the mountains.

Shen Fuyu's eyes and eyebrows are curved, which easily makes people feel good about her.

Mrs. Shen was filled with emotion. Sometimes she felt that Shen Fuyu was not like a servant, but more like the sister of Shen Mengning and Shen Mengwu.

"Shen Fuyu, please don't get on the carriage, okay? Come ride with me, we'll gallop under the sunshine. Just thinking about it makes me excited."

Shen Mengwu licked her lips, her eyes full of anticipation. She had been suppressed by Mrs. Shen for many years and had no friends of the same age around her, which made Shen Mengwu very lonely. Now she finally had a friend, and she hoped that Shen Fuyu would accompany her no matter what.

Shen Fuyu glanced at Madam Shen out of the corner of his eye. Madam Shen nodded imperceptibly. Then Shen Fuyu jumped onto the horse with quick and handsome movements.

"Hey, Shen Fuyu, you can actually ride a horse?" Shen Mengwu's eyes were full of energy. Logically speaking, for someone like Shen Fuyu, who came from a humble background, it would be extremely good for him to have an ox cart in the village. How could he possibly ride a horse?

"I still want to teach you."

Shen Mengwu was very happy. How many surprises was Shen Fuyu hiding from her?
Shen Fuyu's body stiffened. Noticing Madam Shen's gaze, Shen Fuyu said awkwardly, "There are no horses in the village, but there are donkeys, cows, and dogs. I envy people who can ride horses and think they are very handsome, so I often ride donkeys to ride cows and dogs..."

Shen Fuyu touched the tip of his nose, feeling very embarrassed.

"Riding a horse is the same as them. It's pretty simple."

Shen Mengwu widened her eyes and admired Shen Fuyu even more.

"Shen Fuyu, you are amazing, you are really talented. I got thrown off many times when I was learning horse riding!"

Shen Mengwu and Shen Fuyu walked side by side, and their voices reached Mrs. Shen's ears from time to time, and Mrs. Shen's eyes were full of smiles.

Shen Mengning lifted the curtain and looked at the scenery on the roadside, her cold and stubborn eyes full of anticipation.

"Aning, do you want to ride a horse? Mother will ask someone to teach you, or find someone to lead the horse and you sit on it." Mrs. Shen thought Shen Mengning envied Shen Mengwu.
