Forced to marry, I picked up a young powerful official

"you!"

Shen Pingwan slammed the table in anger.

These words really touched her sore spot. After she drove away Nanny Sun and others, her mother-in-law, Lady Jianning, did not say anything but kept sending people to call her back. She was resentful and deliberately ignored them.

But the person who came this morning actually said that if she didn't go back, the wife of Marquis Jianning would come to the Shen family in person.

Shen Pingwan knew very well that it was not that her mother-in-law had condescended to come to the Shen family to take her back, but that she had really annoyed her. If her mother-in-law came, she and the Shen family would not have an easy time.

But, the prince is like that, what's the point of her going back?

Suddenly, she glared at Shen Nankui.

"You know everything, don't you? You know that the prince is inhumane, so you adopted him as your heir. But you deliberately lied to me and changed this marriage according to my will. You deliberately wanted to harm me, right or not!"

Shen Pingwan's eyes were sharp and sharp, "I told you that when I wanted to change my marriage, you didn't even argue for it. You gave up such a good marriage in the Marquis' Mansion. It turns out that you had it all planned out. You wanted me to jump into this fire pit for you!"

Shen Nankui was shocked. "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"The prince is inhumane. What does this have to do with me? I don't even know what an heir is. Are you crazy for saying these things?"

"You're still pretending!"

Shen Pingwan approached her step by step, "Then why do you want to exchange marriages with me?"

Shen Nankui smiled bitterly, "Then tell me, do I have the right to choose in this matter?"

"I don't believe it! Why is it different from before? Why is it different from what I know? You must have deliberately plotted against me. It's not enough that you harmed me in my last life, and you continue to harm me in this life. You are the calamity star in my life, and I will kill you!"

Shen Pingwan looked like a madman, and suddenly picked up a flowerpot and was about to hit Shen Nankui.

Shu Tao hurried to stop her, "Young Madam, please don't be impulsive!"

Shen Nankui hurriedly retreated to the door, looking frightened, and looked at Shen Pingwan with a frown.

"Sister, are you possessed by evil spirits? This is bad. Don't let it bring disaster to the family. I think we should ask some Taoist priests to exorcise the evil spirits for you. I don't understand a word you said."

Shen Pingwan gnashed her teeth and said, "Slut, why have you never told me anything about the Marquis' Mansion? You lied to me so badly!"

Shen Nankui looked helpless, shook his head and said, "It's really possessed by evil spirits. I'd better go tell my mother."

She turned around and went to He's room.

After hearing her words, He rushed over, and when she saw her daughter's appearance, she felt heartbroken.

Just as he was about to blame Shen Nankui, Shen Nankui spoke first.

"Mother, I just came to visit my sister, but I don't know what's wrong with her. She kept talking about past lives and present lives, and she also said that I didn't tell her about the things in the mansion and that I lied to her. I couldn't understand what she said, so she wanted to kill me with a flower pot."

Her lips were trembling and her face was filled with fear and panic.

"This...what happened to my sister?"

He was also shocked when she heard this, and glanced at Shutao with a sharp look.

Shu Tao was so scared that she immediately knelt down and cried, "Madam, the eldest girl is right. As soon as the eldest girl came in, the second girl started saying these words, and in the end she really took a flower pot to hit the eldest girl..."

Seeing the messy debris on the floor of the room, He understood everything at once.

"Wan'er, what happened to you?"

Shen Pingwan stared at Shen Nankui, pointed at her and said, "Mother, she stole my life and ruined my life. It's not enough, now she wants to ruin my life again!"

She cried out, "Mom, I was beaten to death in my previous life. Do I have to be a widow in this life?"

He was frightened by these words. "My son, please don't scare me! What are you talking about?"

Could it be that my daughter has really been contaminated by something unclean?

He didn't have time to pay attention to Shen Nankui. She waved her hand and said, "Wan'er, I'm here. You can go back first."

I would rather trust it to have it than to trust it to have nothing.

If Wan'er were seen in this state by the people in the Marquis' Mansion, who knows what trouble would arise. It's a good thing that Nanny Sun and her companions were driven away by Wan'er. She should quickly ask someone to perform a ritual to exorcise the evil spirit while the Marquis' Mansion doesn't know about it.

Shen Nankui and Gu Yichuang were kept at the Shen family, but in the next two days, Shen's father and He were busy exorcising the evil spirit for Shen Pingwan and had no time to pay attention to them.

Shen Nankui was also happy to have some free time, so he took Gu Yichuan to a courtyard in Qingyu Lane in the south of the city.

"Yichuan, the spring exam is approaching, and you must go to Beijing in advance. Although my father would like to keep you, I think it is better to live in your own land than anywhere else, so I bought this yard. Although it is not big, it is quiet."

The large house with three entrances next to this small courtyard was her private property in her previous life, so she knew about this place.

When they pushed the door open, a young man dressed as a servant about fifteen or sixteen years old came to greet them and knelt down as soon as he saw them.

"I am Zhongshan, paying my respects to the young master and the lady."

Looking at this familiar face, Shen Nankui asked with a smile: "Is the house tidy?"

Zhong Shan was a servant in the Marquis's mansion. He was expelled from the mansion because he was falsely accused of stealing property by the steward. In his previous life, Shen Nankui saw that he was smart and capable, so she arranged for him to work in her shop. Now, she thought that her husband was studying in Beijing and needed someone to take care of him, so she called him back.

Zhong Shan replied, "Madam, everything is ready. You and the young master can move in anytime."

"Well done, come on down, we'll take a look around."

After sending him away, Shen Nankui said, "Yichuan, from now on, Zhongshan will take care of you while you are here."

Gu Yichuan nodded, "Okay."

The two entered the yard. Although the place was not big, there was a large patch of green bamboo planted next to the wall. After several sunny days, the snow on the bamboo leaves had melted. Perhaps it was because of the soaking of snow water that the bamboo leaves looked even greener and more juicy.

Gu Yichuan stopped and watched for a long time, then said with a smile on his face, "Nan Kui, I really want to hear you play the flute under this bamboo forest."

Shen Nankui smiled knowingly, "When it snows again, we will come here, you tune the zither and I will play the flute, and we will make a pot of hot winter three friends tea. Just thinking about it makes me feel wonderful."

"It's a deal." Gu Yichuan stretched out his hand towards her.

"It's a word."

Shen Nankui smiled and put his hand on it.

Gu Yichuan took her hand and they continued to stroll in the yard.

Although small, it has everything. Although it is just a small courtyard, it has all the necessary houses and stables, making it a quiet and comfortable place.

"It's a good place." Gu Yichuan said.

"As long as you like it."

Seeing that he was satisfied with this, Shen Nankui couldn't help but feel happy.

The two of them only sat here for a short while before returning to the Shen family. When they arrived at the door, they saw a carriage belonging to the Marquis' Mansion parked outside.
