The daughter of the firstborn is rebellious and is reborn to bury her whole family

Mrs. Shen didn't think much about it, but was just curious: "What do you want the engagement letter for?"

"My father is in prison and his return date is uncertain, so Mr. Feng and I will have to postpone our wedding date. That's why I want to find someone to rematch our birth dates and choose an auspicious date."

Mrs. Shen was slightly stunned.

No!

Shen Qiyin and Feng Heng's wedding date was set for the end of September, and now it is almost mid-August, so there is not much time left.

"Alas, I have been so busy with your father's affairs lately that I have totally forgotten about it."

"Mother is worried about father, so naturally she has no time to care about other things. I understand."

"Yin'er is so considerate, you are worthy of being my good child, and it's worth my effort to teach you." Madam Shen looked at Shen Qiyin with satisfaction, and then she thought of something, and her face seemed to be guilty: "...As for the matter between Mr. Feng and the third girl, I know that I have wronged you, but it is common for men to cheat, so you must not be jealous."

"When you get married, if Master Feng is still as greedy as a cat, you can take the initiative to ask him to take a concubine. It's okay to take a few more maids. It won't affect your status as the principal wife anyway."

"This way, people will know that I have taught my daughter well, and that she is gentle, sensible, virtuous and generous."

Shen Qiyin lowered her eyes and said, "I've remembered everything mother said."

bah bah bah.

She used her own failed experience in house fighting to teach her, but she didn't dare to learn a single word.

Shen Qiyuin's docile and obedient appearance gave Mrs. Shen unprecedented satisfaction, and she took her to get the marriage certificate without hesitation.

On the way, she did not forget to tell her: "It doesn't matter if the third girl seduces Mr. Feng. A daughter born to a concubine can only be a concubine even if she marries a rich man. It's not like you. Your mother is the legal wife, and you are the legitimate daughter. You will be the legal wife when you marry her."

"When the time comes, you can rub her however you want!"

When Mrs. Shen said this, there was an almost weird light of excitement in her eyes.

Shen Qiyin glanced at her profile, then silently looked away.

She never understood her daughter.

Previously.

Even now.

There is more than just Shen Ruyin that she wants to bully!

After getting the marriage certificate from Madam Shen, Shen Qiyin turned around and left with Rendong. The gate of Ningxiangyuan slowly closed behind her, blocking out Madam Shen's resentful face, but she never looked back.

There was no one around, so Ren Dong couldn't help asking, "Miss, didn't you say you didn't want to compete with Miss Three for that useless Mr. Feng?"

"Yes."

"So you said you wanted to choose another auspicious day to get married?"

"If I hadn't said so, how could my mother feel comfortable giving me the marriage certificate?"

"Then you want to..."

Shen Qiyin turned to look at Rendong, her red lips slightly parted, and she uttered two words.

"break off an engagement!"

Honeysuckle was a little surprised at first, but soon felt that it was as it should be.

"It's better to cancel the engagement, it's better to cancel the engagement. That Mr. Feng is not worthy of you at all! With your looks and talent, you will definitely be able to find a talented and handsome man who is your ideal husband. After marriage, you and your wife will live in harmony and have a smooth life."

After hearing this, Shen Qiyin's expression restrained slightly.

Seeing this, Honeysuckle also stopped smiling and spoke cautiously again, "Miss, did I say something wrong?"

"No." Shen Qiyin smiled at her gently and replied patiently: "It is difficult for a woman to survive in this world. If she can marry a good husband, be loved and cared for, then there is nothing wrong with that."

"It's just Honeysuckle. I don't want to consider marriage as my only way out."

"Even close relatives are bound to fight against each other. How is it different from 'a blind man riding a horse, facing the abyss in the middle of the night' to entrust the rest of your life to a stranger?"

Although Shen Qiyin's gaze towards Rendong was gentle, the words he spoke were firm and courageous.

"Honeysuckle, you must remember that you must make a living before you seek love. Only when you have a solid foundation can you have the courage and right to choose."

Under the bright sun, Shen Qiyin's eyes were bright and enthusiastic.

Honeysuckle felt that the young lady at this moment was indescribably bright and charming.

She was like a devout believer, firmly believing in every word she said.

"My lady, I have taken note of what you said and will definitely do it!"

But it is easy to say big words, but it is difficult to put them into practice.

Honeysuckle quickly asked with a sad face: "Young lady is proficient in everything, including music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can earn money by practicing medicine to support herself. What can this servant rely on?"

Depend on me.

Shen Qiyin actually wanted to say this.

But she hoped that honeysuckle could stand in this world with its own abilities, rather than becoming a dodder that needed to rely on anyone to exist.

Her honeysuckle should be orchid.

It does not compete with other flowers for beauty, nor does it fear being bullied by frost and snow. Even if it is located in an empty valley or a secluded mountain, it will still be fragrant even if there is no one around.

Thinking of this, Shen Qiyin curved his lips and smiled lightly, "Rely on your clever little brain and think carefully about what you want. There is still a lot of time, so think slowly and you will eventually figure it out."

As they were talking, the two returned to Haitang Courtyard.

Banxia was waiting in the corridor, greeting him with her face red and swollen from being fanned, but Shen Qiyin pretended not to see her and went straight into the house.

She walked into the inner room, rummaged through the makeup box for a while, and finally found a comb in the bottom compartment.

It was a green sandalwood comb with a delicate touch. Both sides were carved with intricate and gorgeous patterns, and the workmanship was very exquisite and unique.

It was a token of love that Feng Heng gave her when the Shen and Feng families got married.

Shen Qiyin put away the comb and the marriage certificate together.

She didn't sleep well last night and was busy for half a day today. Now that she had taken a short break, she felt a little dizzy.

I just wanted to lean on the couch and relax, but I was woken up by the noisy sound of rain.

When I opened my eyes, it was already dark outside the window.

She was covered with a honeysuckle quilt, but she still felt a little cold.

A cold autumn rain.

After dinner, Shen Qiyin taught Rendong to read and write under the lamp. The sound of rain outside the window was getting heavier, covering up the screams of Shen Ruyin next door.

Suddenly, a beam of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating the room as bright as day. As thunder roared, Shen Qiyin's hand paused, and a drop of ink fell on the paper, quickly spreading out.

Honeysuckle looked at her with concern: "Miss, are you afraid of thunder?"

"……no."

I used to be afraid, but now I have grown up.

She continued as if nothing had happened, pointing to the four elegant words on the paper and telling Rendong: "This is called 'a turtle in a jar'."

Honeysuckle nodded, took note of it carefully, and wondered why she still hadn’t divorced Wangba?

In the dream that night, Honeysuckle was chased and bitten by a group of little turtles.

When I woke up the next day, the sky had cleared up.

After breakfast, Shen Qiyin took her out and went to the residence of Feng Yuan, the Minister of Rites.

She did not ask anyone to deliver the visiting card in advance. Instead, she asked Rendong to knock on the door when she arrived. She said to the doorman in a neither loud nor soft voice, "Young man, my daughter is the second daughter of the imperial physician Shen Cang's family. I am visiting you today to break off the engagement with your young master. I hope you can go in and tell him."

As soon as these words were spoken, people passing by Feng's house on the street unconsciously slowed down their pace, wanting to listen to what was going on.

It was a coincidence that Feng Ruoying was walking out of the house. Seeing Shen Qiyin suddenly coming to the door, she rushed over and asked in a bad tone, "What are you doing here?"

Shen Qiyin answered every question with good temper: "Cancel the engagement."

"You want to cancel the engagement?!" Feng Ruoying's voice suddenly rose, and she sneered at her: "Did I hear you right? You actually want to give up this opportunity to become a phoenix. Are you playing hard to get?"

Shen Qiyin frowned: "Keep your voice down."

"Ha! Are you afraid of being heard? Well, I will make it known to everyone."

"...No." Shen Qiyin looked helpless: "When I was a kid, I went to the temple to worship Buddha. The donkey in the temple opened its mouth and brayed like you. I was scared."
