Across the Market

Chapter 241

Shen Yulou stretched his head and looked out the window, feeling a bad premonition in his heart, but something was wrong specifically, he asked curiously: "Is something happened in the house?"

Aunt Shen smiled awkwardly, and said sloppily: "It's nothing, and you know that your master has many friends on weekdays, so it's natural to have a few friends to celebrate." She then pressed Shen Yulou, "You All you have to do is take a good rest, and the servant girl will bring you some medicine later."

Shen Yuzhu hurried in from outside: "Mom, is my brother awake?"

Aunt Shen glared at Shen Yuzhu, who looked like a crazy girl, and winked at her: "This is Cao's mansion, not our street. Haven't you seen how Miss Cao talks and walks? Your brother will be If you want to be an official, you are the daughter of the official family, so learn some rules."

Where is Shen Yuzhu's thoughts this time, she stamped her foot and said: "Mother, you are still hiding it from my brother, Cao's mansion invited almost all the wives, daughters, masters and young masters in Jinling to come, and it was to make a marriage between my brother and Miss Cao. You and Mrs. Cao's marriage, you actually kept it from my brother, and this time you secretly told the whole world, but you only kept it from my brother. Mom, you..."

Shen Yulou couldn't listen anymore, so he jumped off the bed and put on his clothes, his handsome face was as cold as ice at the moment.

Aunt Shen raised her hand and slapped Shen Yuzhu on the head, then grabbed her son and said, "This matter was decided privately by my mother and Mrs. Cao. I invite all famous people in Jinling to come, because I am afraid that you will regret it. Yulou , What's wrong with this Miss Cao? In terms of talent, reputation, character, and appearance, how is she worse than that girl Afu? Why do you always put your heart on that girl, mother is really angry."

Shen Yulou was already fully dressed, and his complexion was very bad, but after all, the person standing in front of him was his own mother, and he couldn't make a sneer at his own mother, so he wanted to go out directly.

"Stop!" Aunt Shen was furious and shouted loudly, "If you dare to step out of this door again today, mother will die in front of you."

After finishing speaking, he took out a dagger from his sleeve and pressed it tightly against his neck.

"Mom, what are you doing? Put down the dagger quickly." Shen Yuzhu jumped anxiously, wanting to reach for it, but Mrs. Shen was serious this time, the dagger was pressed tightly against her neck, and it was cut. Skin, printed with bloodstains.

Shen Yulou looked up and saw it, and hurriedly retreated: "Mother, put down the dagger first, let's have a good talk."

Aunt Shen gritted her teeth: "Yulou, there's nothing to say. If Mother wants you to marry Miss Cao, you must get married!"

"Mother, why do you force my brother like this." Shen Yuzhu also couldn't understand, didn't mother like Ah Fu before, and mother is not a person of that kind of power, why does she seem to be a different person now.

"Yuzhu, if you really want your mother to live, you can persuade your brother." Aunt Shen really wanted to marry her with her life this time.

Seeing that her son and daughter were not on her side, Aunt Shen sighed deeply, and cut the skin on her neck severely as soon as the knife went deep.

"Mother!" Shen Yulou yelled, then strode forward and hugged Aunt Shen, his face was extremely painful.

Aunt Shen was still holding the dagger to her neck, and she kept asking her son, "Will you agree to mother?"

Shen Yulou said in pain: "Why does mother persecute the child like this? The son has promised to mother that as long as he finds Ah Fu, he will definitely study hard. Mother doesn't know how much son likes Ah Fu. If she is gone in the future , even if he is a courtier, does mother think her son will be happy?"

Aunt Shen smiled softly: "What do you know? How did your mother teach you when you were young? You are a man who stands up to the sky and you must stand out in the future. Only in this way can others look down on you. It's rare that Miss Cao likes you. You married Cao The daughter of the family, won't your official career be smoother in the future? You don't listen to mother now because you are still young, but if mother doesn't help you, it will be too late by the time you understand."

Shen Yulou pursed her thin lips tightly and said nothing, while Shen Yuzhu kept looking at her brother, almost crying out of anxiety.

She likes Ah Fu, why did she kill Miss Cao halfway...

Seeing that her son was silent, Aunt Shen said again: "You don't think that girl, Ah Fu, is a ghost? This girl is the most scheming girl. The kid from the Lin family has always liked her before. She pretended not to know and just stuck to her. By your side, isn't it just that you have a fancy for your future. What about now? I have climbed to a higher level, and I don't care about you for a long time. I have you, a silly child, who is still waiting for her. I don't know, the two of them are together The county lord's mansion is doing well, how can I remember you?"

"With whom?" Shen Yulou finally regained his composure, and his eyes fell on Aunt Shen's face.

"Master Xie, who else can there be?" Aunt Shen patted her son on the shoulder, put his arm around him and stood up, persuading, "Since that's the case, we don't care too much, Miss Cao is so nice..."
