On the day of the granted marriage, the daughter of a general wept and was reborn!

"Before, when your daughter went to court to receive her title, I had to go back to my hometown for some business. It was a pity that I missed her."

Duke Dingguo and General Shen walked towards a side hall. Along the way, Duke Dingguo kept muttering to himself, all of which were praises of Shen Wantang's words.

General Shen, who had always been humble, felt a little uneasy when he heard this.

In the side hall, the two daughters had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing his father coming with guests, he slowly stood up and bowed respectfully: "Greetings, Duke Dingguo."

Duke Dingguo was beaming with joy - the biggest regret for him and his wife in this life was that they didn't have a daughter.

At this age, the youngest son is about to get married. Whenever this matter is mentioned, the old couple’s room is filled with cries of grief.

"Get up quickly." Duke Dingguo stepped forward, the smile on his face not fading.

"Let me guess, you are Shen Wantang, right?"

Duke Dingguo walked forward and recognized Shen Wantang at a glance.

Although they had never met, the aura on her body could not be concealed. After years of martial arts training, Shen Wantang had a dignified aura. Even if one looked at her from a distance, one would be suppressed by her aura.

Shen Wantang smiled lightly: "It's my daughter."

"The news that I am the best lady in Dacheng martial arts has spread throughout the capital. After seeing her today, I find that she is indeed different." Duke Dingguo nodded, his eyes full of joy, and he also made his own wishful thinking in his mind.

"This is my second daughter, Shen Yingying." General Shen coughed lightly and continued to introduce.

Even though Shen Ying was not convinced, she still nodded and forced a smile.

After taking his seat, Duke Dingguo opened up his mouth and chatted with Shen Wantang in a random manner.

Shen Ying, who was standing by, was unhappy, but now that she had put it on the table, she couldn't show anything.

"My son is about the same age as you, but he is not as knowledgeable and smart as you."

After listening to what Shen Wantang said, and thinking about his youngest son at home, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Duke Dingguo, you are too kind. Your son and my daughter are attacking different things, but since you are an official in the court, you must have made some achievements," Shen Wantang said politely.

After lunch, Duke Dingguo talked with General Shen for a long time before leaving reluctantly.

Shen Ying returned to the yard with her eyes wide open and her teeth gnashed. As soon as she entered the room, before Aunt Liu could ask anything, she grabbed a vase and smashed it heavily on the ground.

"Bitch!"

Then, a curse echoed in the yard.

At that time, Shen Wantang, who was about to return to the yard, heard a faint shout and stopped.

"What is the Second Miss doing?" Qing'e frowned slightly, feeling puzzled.

Shen Wantang was very smart and could naturally figure out what Duke Dingguo's intention was in saying so much at the dinner today.

She glanced at Shen Ying's yard, and then walked towards her own yard.

"What happened? Did Shen Wantang steal your limelight?" Aunt Liu's heart tightened, and she hurried forward to hold her daughter in her arms.

As soon as she hugged Aunt Liu, Shen Ying burst into tears.

"Not only has she stolen the limelight, she is about to steal the young master of the Dingguo family!"

Aunt Liu glanced at the servants, and they retreated, closing the doors and windows.

"What exactly happened? I've never heard of Shen Wantang having any contact with Duke Dingguo's family before. Why are you suddenly saying this?" Aunt Liu frowned and asked.

"Today, when Duke Dingguo saw Shen Wantang, he kept talking to him without even looking at me. He even mentioned his young master specifically." Shen Ying sobbed and tears streamed down her face.

Aunt Liu seemed to be thinking about something.

"Mother, tell me, Duke Dingguo has set his eyes on Shen Wantang as his daughter-in-law, what else could this be!" Shen Ying cried heartbreakingly, as if the sky was about to fall.

Aunt Liu comforted her daughter and said quickly, "Duke Dingguo didn't do anything openly, so how can it count? Don't worry, there is still room for maneuver. Aunt will definitely help you."

After hearing what Aunt Liu said, Shen Ying finally calmed down.

At that time, in Shen Wantang Garden.

"Miss, I went out to buy things for the New Year a few days ago. In a grocery store, Qing'e met a few housekeepers from the Dingguo family."

Thinking about Duke Dingguo's visit today, and Shen Ying's cursing, Qing'e suddenly thought of something.

Shen Wantang was not interested in these things at first, but since he was bored, he thought it would not hurt to listen. He raised his eyelashes and motioned Qing'e to continue.

"Qing'e heard that the young master seemed to have had an affair with someone. I also heard that his young master seemed to have some..." Qing'e felt a little embarrassed as she spoke.

Shen Wantang was puzzled and frowned slightly: "What is it?"

After the words fell, Qing'e leaned close to Shen Wantang's ear and said, "There is some hidden illness."

Hidden disease! ?

Shen Wantang was shocked. There were many people in the capital, and the strength of each party was complicated. Now this housekeeper was really risking her life to dare to attack the master in this way.

Given the hot-tempered temperament of the wife of Duke Dingguo, if she knew about it, she would be able to find out who spread the rumor within a day.

"Do you know what the hidden illness is?" Shen Wantang raised his eyebrows, as if thinking about something.

Qing'e shook her head - of course she wanted to know, but when she got to the key point, the housekeeper kept silent and just sneered.

Qing'e didn't understand.

In the previous life, I had never heard that the son of Duke Dingguo had any hidden illness, but now it seems that someone did it on purpose.

But why is this so?

"Miss, your guests are here." The servant in the front yard came forward to report.

guest?

The only people Shen Wantang could consider his friends in Beijing were Cen Xiao, Xia Huai'en and Lian Zhao.

Having offended Cen Xiao yesterday, Xia Huai'en was cautious, but now he dared to visit Shen Wantang so openly...

Could it be Lian Zhao?

We just met last night and he came to visit me today, and I don’t know why.

"Do you know who it is?" Shen Wantang asked.

"The son of the Marquis of Zhenbei, Cen Xiao."

The servant responded.

It was Cen Xiao! ?

Shen Wantang's eyes trembled, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Even so, she went to the front office.

But he seemed to be thinking about something along the way. Given Cen Xiao's strong personality, why would he come to him today after being rejected last night?

She couldn't figure it out.

"I wonder why General Cen came here today?" In the front hall, although General Shen was smiling, one could still see some uneasiness on his face.

Cen Xiao straightened his sleeves and smiled calmly: "Today is New Year's Day, so of course I am here to wish General Shen a happy new year."

Is it really just a simple New Year's greeting? General Shen smiled awkwardly and nodded repeatedly.

"I came here today and I saw that the scenery of the Shen Mansion is really unique. I wonder if I can take a look?"

Cen Xiao changed the subject and talked about the house.
