Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End
Chapter 17
Fortunately, at that moment, Rong Momo came in from outside to report: "The young ladies are all here, and the young master has already arrived at the gate."
"So soon," the girls knew that this meant they were coming to pick her up soon, so they didn't linger. They said a few more auspicious words to Shen Ruyin and then left like the tide.
Only the second daughter, Shen Ruyun, was a married woman and did not go out.
Seeing the exquisite fan in Shen Ruyin's hand, she suddenly said, "You're quite pleased with yourself now, aren't you?"
The old nanny in the room frowned, and both her maids, Qingzhi and Qingluo, looked up at her.
In the past, the Second Miss would have been frightened by Rong Mama's expression, but this time she did not hesitate at all.
"Before, you were always the center of attention outside, barely saying a word, just following behind your older sister. Now you're the center of attention, receiving nothing but praise. You must be very proud of yourself."
"It's a pity you married a son of a concubine, a mediocre man whose life will be just like that."
“Yes,” Shen Ruyin looked at her, “So what if I married a son born out of wedlock?”
“I have plenty to eat and wear, servants to serve me wherever I go, and I can buy whatever I want. My husband is also good-looking.”
"My mother-in-law is my stepmother's sister. As long as I don't have unrealistic ambitions, I can live a better life than many others. Don't you think so, second sister?"
“As for being mediocre,” Shen Ruyin said, holding the fan in her hand, “for a family like ours, being mediocre is not a bad thing.”
After hearing her words, the second sister calmed down and said, "Then let's see if you can live like this for the rest of your life. When your second brother-in-law rises to a high position and brings honor to his wife and children, the third sister must come and congratulate me."
“Okay,” Shen Ruyin said sincerely. “When my second brother-in-law becomes a first-rank prime minister and my second sister becomes the prime minister’s wife, I will definitely give you a big gift.”
The second young lady was taken aback by her unexpected kind words and was momentarily stunned. The words she wanted to say stuck in her throat. She hurriedly got up: "I'll go outside and take a look."
After she left, Qingzhi couldn't help but ask, "Miss, the Second Miss hasn't been kind to you since she came in today. Why did you still give her a nice look?"
“If she’s doing well, shouldn’t I, as her sister, benefit as well?” Shen Ruyin said. “Besides, we don’t even know when she’ll become a first-rank lady.”
"Don't wait until I've lived a comfortable life for most of my life before she's had a few good years. If that's the case, what's wrong with me going to congratulate her? Don't you think so?"
Qingzhi thought about the situation described by Shen Ruyin and burst out laughing: "Miss is right. If it really comes to that, Miss must send me to deliver the gift. I will definitely say a lot of auspicious words to the Second Miss."
Rong Momo couldn't help but smile slightly and said, "It's good that you think like this, Miss. Even if you marry into the Marquis of Anping's mansion as a concubine's wife, you won't have to bow down to the Second Miss for most of your life."
Shen Ruyin nodded, "That's right. My second brother-in-law will be stationed in another region after this, so he won't be spending much time in the capital anyway. By the time he returns, my eldest sister will also be in a high position. Does she think she's afraid of my second sister?"
As for my second sister becoming the Prime Minister's wife in the future, so what? Most of her life has passed, and she has already enjoyed everything she should have.
As long as she's not in officialdom, what does it matter if she doesn't bow her head?
The others were unaware of Shen Ruyin's thoughts, but they all knew in their hearts that as long as the Marquis of Anping's mansion remained standing and the Earl's mansion still existed, the Third Miss's future would be filled with countless good days.
As for other considerations, that's for the next generation to decide; who can say for sure?
"Coming, coming," the matchmaker said as she entered from outside. "Young lady, get ready, we're about to move."
Slightly slower than the matchmaker was the eldest brother.
The eldest brother has always been fond of his younger sister Shen Ruyin, and naturally he wouldn't delay the matter of personally carrying her off to her wedding today.
"Thank you, brother," Shen Ruyin said softly as her brother carried her on his back.
The elder brother sighed inwardly and quietly instructed, "You are my sister, and I will never abandon you in the future. If Su Jinchen treats you badly, just write back to me and complain, and I will talk to him."
“Okay,” Shen Ruyin said, suppressing her sobs, “I will definitely write to my brother then.”
"Good girl."
Shen Ruyin was carried to the main hall by her eldest brother, where she bid farewell to her parents before getting into the bridal sedan chair.
What followed was a series of wedding rituals that left Shen Ruyin so exhausted that she had no time to think and felt dizzy and lightheaded.
Shen Ruyin only breathed a sigh of relief when she was sitting in the new house.
Because Su Jinchen was on good terms with the main wife, and because Madam Wang and Madam Xie were related by marriage, the person who came to the room to talk to Shen Ruyin today was Madam Wang's youngest daughter, Su Liu, who was not yet married.
"Hello, sister-in-law," said Su Liu, who was only eight years old but was rather sturdy.
After being entrusted with the important task of accompanying Shen Ruyin, she indeed sat down properly next to Shen Ruyin and did not say that she wanted to go out to play.
The sixth young lady of the Su family used to be part of the legitimate daughters' circle, and she was quite young. She wasn't familiar with Shen Ruyin, so the atmosphere in the room became a bit awkward.
Shen Ruyin looked at Su Liu with a smile in her eyes, but did not say anything.
Feeling a little uncomfortable, Su Liu asked, "Why are you staring at me like that, Third Sister-in-law?"
“Sixth Sister is beautiful,” Shen Ruyin answered without hesitation, surprising both Su Liu and her wet nurse behind her.
The sixth girl touched her face: "Sister-in-law, don't flatter me. They all say I'm fat."
"Fat?" Shen Ruyin looked a little confused. "Sixth sister is just right, how is she fat? If you want to lose weight, you can wait until you are a few years older and grow taller."
"Really?" Miss Su couldn't help but ask.
“Of course it’s true,” Shen Ruyin nodded. “Sixth Sister looks like Mother, with long, thin eyebrows and beautiful almond-shaped eyes. She’ll definitely be even more beautiful when she grows up!”
Which girl doesn't like to be praised? Especially Su Liu, who has always been belittled for her figure and appearance.
Seeing that this sister-in-law was eloquent, the sixth young lady couldn't help but exchange a few more words with her.
The sixth young lady has a love for food, and it's because she can't control her appetite that she turned out this way. Coincidentally, Shen Ruyin also loves to eat, so they have a lot in common on this issue.
As they talked, the two of them sat down together and chattered away, quite happily.
Only when there was a commotion outside and someone reported that the groom was coming did Shen Ruyin return to her seat and cover her face with a fan.
Originally, the Sixth Miss wanted to avoid going out, but at this moment, her own sister-in-law happened to come in, and since she was still young, she didn't need to.
Although she had lived for so many years, this was Shen Ruyin's first marriage.
Thinking of Su Jinchen's handsome face, Shen Ruyin finally felt a little nervous.
Since he comes from a noble family, I wonder if he has pectoral and abdominal muscles?
