Chapter 235

"That's not quite right..."

Shen Wei disagreed and subconsciously wanted to retort, but the words caught in his throat.

Um... he realized he couldn't seem to refute it.

To say that they would find a better family for Shen Lingjun next is impossible; in fact, it seems that neither he nor the Wen family had very good judgment.

They used to think the Qin and Wei families were both good, but what happened?

Shen Wei sighed, "Alright, alright, we'll talk about it later, we'll talk about it later."

His deeply ingrained belief was that a girl should marry a good husband in order to have a fulfilling and happy life.

Like Shen Lingjun said, she's supposed to be a peaceful old lady, but she's only twenty-one! How can someone so young become an old lady?

She'll have to spend the rest of her life all alone. How can that be allowed?

However, Shen Lingjun's words also make sense.

In many families, the bride has no idea whether her fiancé is a good person or a bad one before she marries into the family. Marriage is a gamble, and Shen Lingjun had almost lost everything once before, so she naturally didn't want to repeat the same mistake.

If you're not sure you can win the bet, it's best not to take the risk and simply not gamble at all.

We'll see what happens when I meet a truly reliable and ideal husband.

Shen Wei raised his glass: "Come on, cheers! May my daughter one day meet a good man!"

Shen Lingjun smiled, neither refuting him nor raising his glass.

Shen Wei still clung to this obsession, so let him hold onto it himself. In any case, she would never marry again in this lifetime.

It took her more than a year to complete the great task of losing her husband. Now she has finally achieved her wish of being a widow. Isn't it great to be the head of the Yongning Marquis's mansion all by herself?

Why would she deliberately invite trouble upon herself?

Just then, a leisurely voice rang out.

"Marshal Shen, may your daughter find a good husband?"

Mo Chonggui, dressed in riding attire, seemed to have just returned from outside the city. He swaggered into the side hall and sat down at the table without any hesitation.

"Madam Shen has lost her husband. Such a joyous occasion! Marshal Shen has even hosted a banquet to celebrate. Why didn't he invite me?"

Shen Wei was baffled by Mo Zhonggui's question. This was their family matter, so why should they invite an outsider like him?

Then he remembered that Mo Zhonggui had told him before that Shen Lingjun was determined to remain a widow and wanted him to marry her to Mo Zhonggui so that the two families could be united by marriage.

Thinking of this, Shen Wei glanced at Shen Lingjun, who had successfully become a widow, and then at the uninvited Mo Zhonggui: "..."

...The hairs on his entire body stood on end!

Mo Zhonggui said last time that he was just joking, and he really was just joking, right? Really?

Mo Chonggui glanced at Shen Lingjun, then turned to Shen Wei, saying with a half-smile, "I wonder if Marshal Shen still remembers what I suggested to you last time..."

Shen Wei's voice suddenly rose to a shrill tone: "I don't remember! If it's something, Chief Supervisor Mo, we can discuss it between the two of us later!"
