Chapter 100 100 In Her Name
The Shen family was originally from a humble family with no background.

It is all due to the fact that the old lady of the Shen family was in high school and became an official in the court, all the way to where she is today.

Such a family background is really not enough in Beijing where rich and powerful people gather.

In addition, Shen Qingci was regarded as an abandoned son by the Shen family since childhood.

Now that she has left her heart, it is even more impossible to give her a good dowry, at most it can live with face.

Therefore, Shen Qingci was not surprised to see the list sent by Zhou.

Moreover, the date of the wedding was only handed down this morning, and the Zhou family left and returned so quickly, which shows that the list was negotiated by the members of the Shen family early in the morning.

Zhou's questioning her was just a formality.

Because there is no hope, there will be no disappointment.

What's more, it is impossible for her to marry the third prince.

What she is worried about now is how she can get out of the Shen family after retiring the engagement.

"A Ci, look, what else is needed."

After Mrs. Zhou handed the draft list to Shen Qingci, seeing that she hadn't made a statement, she thought she was dissatisfied, so she persuaded: "Aniang knows that compared to the second girl of the Jiang family, it is a little less, but our family's wealth is indeed Can't compare with others."

Shen Qingci nodded, "Mother is right."

"Just look at the arrangement, I don't have any special requirements."

Seeing her looking sleepy, Mrs. Zhou couldn't say anything more, but when she got up to leave, she said: "The weather will be fine in two days, you can go to Xiangguo Temple with your mother to burn incense."

"Now that the wedding date has been set, mother only hopes that you will be safe and successful in the future."

She had already talked about this, and Shen Qingci couldn't refuse, she was about to agree, when she thought she was going out to get some air.

Unexpectedly, Zhou said in the next sentence: "Ayao has been in the school for the past few days, otherwise, I would bring Ayao and Awan together at that time, and the three of you siblings will take this opportunity to mend their relationship."

Based on Shen Qingci's understanding of the siblings, it was impossible to mend them.

But Zhou is obsessed with this.

Shen Qingci originally wanted to refuse, but he never thought that Shen Qingwan, who always disliked her, would follow her.

Moreover, he changed his arrogant and rude attitude in the past, smiled and took her hand, and apologized very sincerely: "Sister, I was wrong before, you don't remember villains, please forgive me, from now on, we sisters Get along with."

Of course Shen Qingci would not believe it.

But if she stretched out her hand and didn't hit the smiling person, since Shen Qingwan had expressed her attitude, no matter how cold and rigid she was, she wouldn't take it for granted.

Shen Qingci smiled faintly: "That would be the best."

This was what Zhou liked to hear. She smiled and took the hands of the two of them, overlapping them together, and said earnestly: "You two sisters can reconcile, and A Niang's heart disease can be regarded as gone."

Shen Qingwan held Zhou's hand back, and said with a smile: "Mother, don't worry, I will take good care of Elder Sister in the future."

"I was ignorant before, so I won't be a hindrance to my mother and elder sister in the future."

"By the way, there is also A Yao. When he takes a rest next time, I will definitely talk to him well, and I promise not to disturb my sister again."

Shen Qingwan was a different person before and after.

Shen Qingci couldn't figure out what her purpose was for a while.

After seeing off the mother and daughter, Shen Qingci turned around and asked Xiang Chunya: "Has she been this abnormal recently?"

Chunya shook her head, "I don't know, I don't know if I should go and inquire about it."

Shen Qingci nodded: "Go."

In a blink of an eye, it was the day to go to Xiangguo Temple to offer incense.

Coincidentally, Lin Yunzheng sent someone over the wall to deliver the letter quietly, and the appointment time with Qin Jiaojiao was also on this day, and it was at the pavilion on the back mountain of Xiangguo Temple.

It saved Shen Qingci the trouble of finding a reason to go out.

It's just that she thought that she would go to Qiuwei like before, she was alone in a carriage, and Shen Qingwan and Zhou's mother and daughter were in one.

Unexpectedly, the Zhou family only had someone prepare a carriage.

What's more, Shen Qingwan sat up very happily and leaned beside her.

Such an abnormality made Shen Qingci have to be vigilant.

But Shen Qingwan didn't say anything else, he just took her to chat with each other, from the styles that the noble girls in Beijing like, to the head jewelry, who and so and so just got married, what kind of husband's family is like of.

Just when Shen Qingci was falling asleep, Shen Qingwan suddenly said, "Sister, what did brother-in-law tell you that day outside the carriage?"

Shen Qingci gave a jolt, and the drowsiness disappeared in an instant.

But she was stunned for a moment before she realized that the "brother-in-law" Shen Qingwan was referring to was the Third Highness, Sheng Tingye.

But it was Chunya who was on the carriage at that time, not her, and what he said about retiring the engagement was not suitable to break it out in front of Shen Qingwan.

Shen Qingci just waved his hands, pretending to be coy and said: "It's nothing, just say that I'm not feeling well, so there's no need to go to Qiuwei."

Shen Qingwan rolled his eyes and jokingly said: "Before, mother was worried that my brother-in-law would treat my elder sister badly, but now it seems that he will love you."

Shen Qingci smiled and didn't explain much.

But Shen Qingwan didn't intend to stop.

"Sister, since the date is set, haven't you prepared a sachet for brother-in-law?"

Everyone told her privately that she would definitely divorce, so would she rush to give someone a token of love?

Shen Qingci shook his head coldly.

However, Shen Qingwan said anxiously: "How can it be possible? Although the marriage is granted by the imperial decree and the date is set by the Qin Tianjian, the date has been fixed before the three letters and six ceremonies, but this token of love is still required."

"Sister, think about it quickly. Although the time is tight, I can help my sister to catch up with work, and I will make it in time."

Looking at Shen Qingwan who cared more about getting married than himself, it was hard for Shen Qingci not to think too much.

But on the surface, she just pretended not to know, and said lightly: "No need, my health is not good, the Third Highness knows about it, he won't care about those empty etiquettes."

When she said this, she seemed to be unintentional, but she was paying attention to Shen Qingwan's expression.

Sure enough, after hearing her words, a trace of displeasure flashed across Shen Qingwan's eyes.

But it was fleeting.

Shen Qingci almost thought that he was wrong.

She was a little surprised, could it be that Shen Qingwan has taken a fancy to the Third Prince?
If it was jealousy and resentment towards her, it should be the previous attitude.

Before Shen Qingci could think about it, Shen Qingwan had already taken her hand and said with a smile, "I really envy the relationship between sister and brother-in-law."

"I watched from a distance that day, and my brother-in-law is such an outstanding figure. My sister is so lucky."

Shen Qingci tentatively said again: "Why are you envious, Auntie is watching for you, she will definitely find you a better husband."

Shen Qingwan blurted out: "That's no match for brother-in-law."

At that moment, there was a sense of sadness and loss in her tone that she hadn't had time to hide.

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she came to her senses and hurriedly said: "Sister, don't worry, I am really happy for Sister, there is no other meaning."

Shen Qingci raised his eyebrows and smiled: "Well, I know."

She figured it out.

Coupled with the news that Chunya helped her find out in the past two days, it was said that after the second girl came back from Qiuwei, she seemed to be a different person.

She prefers dressing up, not to mention, and always comes to inquire about the relationship between her and the third prince.

I'm afraid I really have feelings for that person that I shouldn't have.

And she didn't have any chance to get close to him, so she made every effort to get close to her?

Shen Qingci was thinking about what Shen Qingwan would do next with this ulterior motive in mind, but when Shen Qingwan approached her a little, lowered his voice and said, "Sister, who do you think you'll see later?"

Shen Qingci narrowed his eyes slightly.

Shen Qingwan didn't let it go, and said bluntly: "Your Highness, Third!"

Shen Qingci: "..."

She took a good incense, so what's the matter with the Third Highness? ?

Before she could speak, Shen Qingwan, whose eyes were about to overflow with joy, couldn't wait to speak: "I think the big wedding is coming soon, and sister must also want to see brother-in-law, so..."

Shen Qingci's face darkened.

Even Mrs. Zhou, who was watching the two sisters laughing happily, couldn't help frowning: "So, you sent a letter to His Highness the Third?"

Shen Qingwan hadn't noticed the problem yet, so she nodded with a smile: "Yes, I sent someone to deliver the letter to Elder Sister, if His Highness the Third Highness is interested, he will definitely come to the appointment."

"They don't have much chance to meet each other on weekdays, so it's hard to miss such a good opportunity."

Shen Qingci: "..."

For a moment, she wanted to kick Shen Qingwan off the carriage.

But this time, before she could open her mouth, Mrs. Zhou, who sensed something was wrong, reprimanded: "How can it be done! Even if it has been decided, it is not good for your elder sister to meet him in private. How can you Sending that letter in the name of my sister? Absurd!"

Shen Qingwan didn't feel that she was at fault, she blushed and said with aggrieved face: "I'm also doing it for my sister's benefit, how can mother say that about me?"

"What's more, with my mother and I as cover, who can tell?"

"Mother doesn't want my sister to say a few more words with her brother-in-law to deepen their relationship?"

After all, Zhou family felt sorry for Shen Qingwan, and when she saw that she was so wronged that she was about to shed tears, there was no anger left, so she turned her head to look at Shen Qingci: "Aci, the third highness who looked at her before was concerned about you. He shouldn't think we're presumptuous, right?"

Shen Qingci couldn't help but sneer: "Hehe."

No, no wonder.

She thought of Chunya's description of the words and deeds of the third prince outside the carriage at that time, and she was afraid that she would scoff when she heard the invitation.

The dislike for her may be even higher.

Although she was a little annoyed by Shen Qingwan's self-assertion, but when she thought about it, she hated it. This marriage will end sooner or later, so it doesn't matter if it's more or less.

Anyway, that person is unlikely to agree, let alone go to the appointment.

She just went back and cleaned up Shen Qingwan.

At this moment, the carriage stopped at the foot of Xiangguo Temple.

Further up, there are thousands of bluestone steps. Here, no matter how noble their status is, they have to dismount and walk into the mountain gate.

Zhou Shi and Shen Qingwan dismounted first.

Shen Qingci who was sitting in the innermost came down last.

Before she could stand still, Shen Qingwan exclaimed: "Sister! Look!"

"The carriage of the Third Prince's Mansion!"

In other words, the Third Highness really came!
Shen Qingci: "..."
