Rebirth on the wedding night, being doted on by the scumbag elder brother

Chapter 351 Very Regretful

Su frowned, his heart full of doubts.

Suddenly, she remembered a long-standing rumor: The eldest son of the Shen family had been weak and sickly since childhood. He would cough up blood every time he went out. He was a man who needed medicine all the time. Some people in the capital even said that he would not live past the age of 25...

Could it be that they want to get married to bring good luck?

Thinking of this, Su's face suddenly changed and became as pale as paper.

Let Yunzi marry such a man to bring good luck? This is absolutely impossible! If something goes wrong, won't Yunzi become a widow early? How much contempt and bullying will a woman who loses her husband receive in this world! This is really unfair to Yunzi.

Su's eyes flashed with anger, and she said firmly: "Our Su family does not have such a blessing, and we dare not marry high."

The matchmaker waved her handkerchief and continued to persuade: "Madam, you must think about it carefully. Such a good marriage is rare in a hundred years!"

"The head of the Shen Siyan family is both civil and military, and he is very smart. He will become a great man one day, and he is also highly appreciated by the emperor. Moreover, he has an outstanding appearance, and he can attract everyone's attention wherever he goes..."

Su was shocked when she heard these words and interrupted hurriedly: "Are you talking about Shen Siyan?"

"Yes, it is the head of the Shen family." The matchmaker answered affirmatively.

Su was stunned. It turned out that it was not the weak eldest young master, but the second young master Shen Siyan, who was famous and elegant in the capital.

Shen Siyan's name has long been well-known in the capital. He is young, promising, handsome and unrestrained, and is the dream lover of countless women. Now the Shen family has sent a matchmaker to propose marriage. What's going on?

Seeing that Su seemed a little shaken, the matchmaker added, "Madam, to be honest, the divination shows that Master Shen and Miss are a perfect match. It is simply a match made in heaven. If they tie the knot, their future will surely be prosperous."

Normally, any family would be happy to accept the proposal from the Shen family. But Su loved her daughter Yunzi very much, and even if her parents decided on her marriage, she hoped that her daughter could find true love.

After thinking for a moment, Su said, "I understand. I will ask Yunzi what she thinks."

After hearing this, the matchmaker was surprised. She thought the matter had been settled, but she didn't expect Su to ask for her daughter's opinion. You know, the other party is the Shen family, the famous young master Shen!

When Aunt Zhao told Yunzi about this, Yunzi froze and her mind was in a mess.

The Shen family really came to propose marriage...

She and Shen Siyan once had a deep relationship, and they could become husband and wife as long as they nodded in agreement.

However, Yunzi's hands were tightly clenched on the corner of her clothes, her knuckles were white, and her hands were trembling slightly.

Shen Siyan once told her that during that heavy snowfall, he could give her everything except marrying her in a sedan chair carried by eight people.

Is this relationship a destined fate or an inevitable karma?

"Miss?" Nanny Zhao saw that Yunzi looked unhappy and asked with concern, "About this marriage..."

Ye Yunzi took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. When she opened her eyes again, they were deep and calm, as if all her emotions were hidden.

"I can't afford this marriage, so I'd better ask the matchmaker to go back."

"Okay, miss." Nanny Zhao responded.

She knew that marrying into a wealthy family did not necessarily mean happiness.

Just like the lady, although she married the master of the Ye family, her life was miserable. Perhaps marrying an ordinary family and living an ordinary life would be happier.

However, Nanny Zhao noticed that the young lady seemed a little lost.

Nanny Zhao took the reply back. Su nodded in agreement, and politely declined the marriage proposal as her daughter wished, and let the matchmaker leave.

The matchmaker's eyes widened, totally unable to understand why such a good opportunity would be rejected.

"Madam, please reconsider..."

"No need." Su shook her head and said, "Please tell Madam Shen that there are many good girls in the capital who are more suitable for Master Shen than my Yunzi."

And just like that, the matchmaker was sent out the door.

The news quickly spread throughout the capital, and everyone was talking about it. The second young master of the Shen family actually proposed to Miss Su! But surprisingly, the Su family rejected the marriage.

"It's unbelievable that the Su family would reject such a good match."

"The Shen family is very famous, and other families are vying to marry their daughters to them. It's really surprising that the Su family did this."

The matchmaker returned to the Shen Mansion with regret and reported that she felt very sorry for losing a big business.

Mrs. Shen was furious when she heard the news. "What? They don't agree?"

"Yes," the matchmaker sighed, "the young lady of the Su family is unwilling to accept this marriage."

Mrs. Shen's face turned extremely ugly. She originally thought that the matter had been settled, but she didn't expect that the Su family would actually refuse.

"You must find another way and make this happen no matter what." Mrs. Shen ordered coldly.

"Yes, yes..." The matchmaker agreed, but her heart was full of doubts.

With Master Shen's status, he could easily marry the daughter of a more prominent family, such as Miss Wang or Miss Liu. Why did he choose the Su family?

And judging from Mrs. Shen's reaction, her attitude towards this marriage seems more like anger.

Although she had many puzzles in her heart, the matchmaker did not show them on the surface and turned around and left the Shen Mansion.

Soon, the news and the various speculations that followed also reached Shen Caotang.

"What did you say?" Tao Qiming was shocked, and the medicine bottle in his hand slipped, "Miss Ye didn't agree to the marriage?"

To the outside world, the relationship between Shen Siyan and Ye Yunzi is a mystery, but to Tao Qiming, he already knew it all.

The two were so close, their eyes full of tenderness, as if they had promised each other eternity. They even met yesterday.

How could Miss Ye not agree?

"How can this be!"

"Brother Shen, what happened? Did you have a fight?" Tao Qiming hurried over and stood in front of Shen Siyan who was practicing sword.

There was no ripple on Shen Siyan's face, which was so calm that it made people anxious. However, Tao Qiming was extremely anxious and kept circling around Shen Siyan.

Finally, Shen Siyan stopped and asked helplessly: "What are you doing around me?"

"Brother Shen, I heard that the Su family rejected the marriage proposal. Why didn't you react at all? Could it be that... you and Miss Ye are really over?"

Shen Siyan remained silent and did not respond. He looked into the distance and swung the sword in his hand down suddenly, with sword energy overflowing.

Tao Qiming quickly took a few steps back, fearing that he would be hurt by the sword.

"Shen..." He was about to speak, but met Shen Siyan's deep gaze, so he swallowed the words he was about to say. He knew that Shen Siyan must have his reasons for doing this.

Sighing, Tao Qiming waved his hand and said, "Oh, forget it. I'd better go back to tinker with my medicinal herbs."
