Quick Wear: After the charming host got pregnant, the boss spoiled her like crazy

Chapter 36: Sickly and Heirless Prince x Wife of the Wedding Ceremony 10

It was raining continuously, and a layer of hazy mist covered the sky and earth. Raindrops fell gently, wetting Shen Nian's black hair.

Shen Nian led Chun Tao to stand in the porch in front of Madam Shen's room.

It has been several days since Mrs. Shen fainted. These days, Mrs. Shen seemed to be ashamed to face people and has not shown up for a long time.

Shen Wan was too busy to take care of herself because of what happened that day, and no one had bothered Shen Nian in the past few days, so she was happy and at ease.

but……

Shen Nian glanced at Mrs. Shen's door and realized that his leisurely days seemed to be coming to an end.

"Second Miss, Madam asks you to come in." Nanny Wang called Shen Nian.

Shen Nian moved his stiff body and led Chuntao into the inner room.

The air inside was filled with the bitter smell of Chinese medicine, which was a bit pungent.

Shen Nian pressed her nose with a handkerchief to stop the itch, and she looked up at Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen was seen half leaning on a soft cushion, having taken off her usual cumbersome clothes. Her face was extremely pale without any makeup, and her figure was extremely thin in plain clothes.

In just a few days, Mrs. Shen seemed to have aged ten years.

Shen Nian looked at the once powerful Madam Shen, who had become what she is now, and she couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion in her heart.

Although Mrs. Shen was partial, she loved Shen Wan very much.

While Shen Nian was looking at Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Shen was also looking at her.

Shen Nian tied her black hair into an exquisite bun today, adorned with gold and jade hairpins. Her eyebrows were bright and her eyes sparkled as if she had embraced all the beauty in the world.

She was wearing a dark blue dress with exquisite peony flowers embroidered on the hem, looking noble and dignified.

It turned out that Shen Nian had grown up to be so bright and beautiful. Mrs. Shen was surprised to find that she had not taken a good look at her little daughter for a long time.

When she was pregnant with Shen Nian, she was looking forward to Shen Nian's arrival with great joy.

She thought her husband was looking forward to the new baby just like her.

But what happened to come earlier than the child was the betrayal of her husband. Mr. Shen took advantage of his wife's pregnancy to take in one beautiful concubine after another.

Every night when she couldn't sleep because of her pregnancy, her husband was having fun with his concubine.

This made her uneasy, as she was afraid that concubines who were younger and more beautiful than her would steal her husband's heart.

Fortunately, she still has her unborn child. As long as she gives birth to a legitimate son, her position will be more secure.

But Shen Nian happened to be a daughter. When she learned that she had given birth to another daughter, her heart sank completely.

Her husband rarely came to see her, and in the lonely nights, she put all her resentment towards her husband on Shen Nian.

She threw Shen Nian to the wet nurse and left Shen Nian to fend for herself. She did not care about Shen Nian at all.

Before I knew it, 18 years had passed.

Mrs. Shen was a little dazed when she looked at Shen Nian. The child who had been ignored had grown up into the outstanding person she is today in an invisible corner.

Noticing her gaze, Shen Nian couldn't help but scratch his face with his hand. Was there something on his face?

Otherwise, why would her cheap mother look at her with such a disgusting look?

That's right, Shen Nian's description of the look in her eyes was corny, and Shen Nian was unable to perceive any warmth from it.

Shen Nian couldn't help but turn his head slightly to avoid Mrs. Shen's uncomfortable gaze.

Her action hurt Mrs. Shen's heart and also brought her back to her senses from her trance.

Madam Shen raised her hand and asked Shen Nian to sit down. She looked at her for a long time and slowly said, "Mother hopes that you will ask the Night Palace to suppress your sister's scandal for the sake of blood relationship."

Shen Nian was shocked when he heard this.

She knew that Madam Shen had always protected her eldest daughter, Shen Wan, but she never expected that Madam Shen would ask her to plead and let the Night Palace suppress Shen Wan's scandal.

The Night Palace is one of the most powerful families in the capital, and has a high status in the court. If the Night Palace is willing to take action, it will not be difficult to suppress Shen Wan's scandal.

But Shen Nian understood that the debt of favor was the hardest to repay. If she really went to ask for help from the Night Palace, then she would always owe the Night Palace a favor.

Gu Huaian would also feel that she had no principles and kept giving in and enduring those who bullied her.

Moreover, putting all these aside, she, Shen Nian, is by no means a saintly woman who can show mercy to those who want to kill her.

Shen Nian was silent for a moment, then looked at Madam Shen and said calmly, "Mother, my sister made a mistake, and she should bear the consequences herself. We in the Shen family cannot lose our principles and dignity for my sister."

Madam Shen's face darkened and she said, "That's your own sister. How can you just watch her fall into disgrace?"

Shen Nian sneered when he heard this and said, "Why can't I watch it? She can frame me, so why can't I watch her suffer the consequences?"

Shen Nian stood up from the chair, walked slowly to Mrs. Shen, and looked at her with an extremely firm look.

"I will not abandon my principles to protect Shen Wan. And mother, what did you do in this? You must know better than me."

Mrs. Shen's face turned pale when she heard this. She looked at Shen Nian with shock and fear in her eyes.

It turns out that Shen Nian knew everything. She knew everything.

Madam Shen looked at her, stammering as if to argue for herself, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't open them.

"Mother, I have something to do and will leave now."

After saying this, Shen Niantian left Madam Shen's yard without looking back.

Looking at Shen Nian's leaving back, Mrs. Shen's tears wet her eyelashes.

She felt sorry for her younger daughter and couldn't save her older daughter. She was truly a useless mother.
