Chapter 561 Listen to your father and marry him!
Shen Wantang knew what he was planning. She sneered in her heart and interrupted Shen Guannian: "Father is right, I really can't move it alone, so please help me move it!"
If it had been in the past, Shen Guannian would have turned hostile to his daughter if she had treated him like a laborer. But now that his daughter had become rich and had a priceless treasure right in front of him, he was so happy that he didn't even have time to turn hostile.
"Well! Since you can't carry so much, then your father will reluctantly help you move it!" It's a good opportunity to take some of her treasures while moving!
As soon as Qi heard what Shen Guannian was planning, she quickly walked over and said, "Oh, there are indeed a lot of things. Let me help move them!"
As she spoke, she was about to reach out to take the box of Dongzhu.
Shen Wantang pushed her hand away unceremoniously: "How dare I trouble my mother to do such rough work? I am already grateful that my mother didn't scold me for lying and didn't punish me. How dare I let my mother suffer?"
"Why would I punish you? It was just a misunderstanding. Tang'er, you..."
Shen Wantang pushed her back and said, "Mom, move aside. Don't get hurt. I'll do it myself."
Qi was annoyed: "Shen Wantang, you dare to push me?! Don't think that you can fly to the sky just because someone from the Duke's Mansion gives you something. A wild chicken is a wild chicken and it can't turn into a phoenix!"
Shen Wantang looked at Shen Guannian calmly: "Father, I didn't push mother, I just didn't want her to suffer. Father, please judge, is it wrong for me to be filial?"
Shen Guannian was in a hurry to steal Shen Wantang's things, and he felt that Qi was delaying him: "Don't get in the way here, what a wild chicken, it's so unpleasant to talk like that, Tang'er is also my daughter, she is a wild chicken, what am I?"
"Master, I didn't mean to scold you, I just..."
"Alright, alright, get out of the way, I'll take the stuff!"
Shen Guannian also pushed Qi, picked up a box with one hand, and then ordered his servant: "A Shun, what are you doing standing there? Come over and help the second young lady move the materials!"
Ah Shun responded and immediately picked up all six pieces of material.
As Shen Guannian walked out, he looked at the fabrics. What a pity, the fabrics were all bright colors suitable for little girls, and there was nothing he could wear.
He usually wouldn't be willing to buy such fine brocade, and now he's giving it to Shen Wantang to wear. It's a waste.
He hugged the box tightly and kept shaking his head: "What a pity, what a pity!"
Shen Wantang followed him: "What is father talking about? What's a pity?"
Shen Guannian tried to hold back, but couldn't help it: "It's a pity for a girl like you to wear such fine fabrics! You are so young, you should just wear plain cotton clothes. If you wear too luxurious clothes, it will easily develop bad habits. A girl should be simple and down-to-earth, and shouldn't dress up in fancy clothes to show off in public. Do you understand?"
Shen Wantang smiled: "Father is right. It would be a pity for me to wear these materials. Besides, I am used to wearing cotton clothes, and I am not used to wearing silk."
Shen Guannian nodded repeatedly: "Yes!"
"So - why not give these materials to father?"
"what?!"
Shen Wantang took a piece of cloth from the servant and stuffed it into Shen Guannian's arms, and then took back the box from Shen Guannian.
Shen Guannian was anxious: "What are you doing?! These materials are so bright, they are not suitable for me to wear at all!"
"How can it be inappropriate? Dad is still very young, these are perfect for him!"
Shen Guannian's eyes almost popped out: "You asked me, a man, to wear pink?!"
Shen Wantang took out another one and stuffed it into Shen Guannian's hand: "Then this bright orange one should suit you, right?"
Shen Guannian looked a little unhappy: "If I go out wearing these, others will laugh at me!"
Shen Wantang curled the corner of his mouth. It turned out that he also knew that he would be ridiculed if he wore these, so why did he keep feeling sorry?
"Well, forget it. I can't let my father be laughed at. I'll wear these fabrics. Even though I'm not used to them, they're better than having nothing to wear. When I see Madam Gu again, I can make her happy. Besides, I'll look decent when I go out, and I can earn some face for my father. Don't you agree?"
Shen Guannian is neither right nor wrong now.
He only recently discovered that Shen Wantang didn't even have a piece of clothing that fit her. When she went out to visit others, she had to borrow Shen Mingxuan's clothes. Her maid's clothes were even worse, with patches on them!
If this master and servant went out wearing tattered clothes, he would lose all his dignity and face!
Thinking that these were all for the Duke's wife to see, Shen Guannian no longer felt it was a pity. He said firmly: "Wear them! All for you to wear! Make sure you dress up brightly and beautifully, and make sure the Duke's wife is satisfied. The second son of the Duke's mansion is not married yet, maybe..."
Once Shen Guannian had this idea, he couldn't suppress it!
The genius son of the Duke's Mansion is not better than the insane and crazy Prince Xiao of the Ning Palace? !
Moreover, the Duke of Zhenguo is not Prince Ning, he has real power!
By the way, how come he remembered that his superior’s superior was a subordinate of the Duke of Zhenguo?
If he could marry into the Duke's Mansion, wouldn't it be just a matter of time before he could be reinstated?
Shen Guannian almost laughed out loud: "Good! Very good! Tang'er, you must dress more beautifully and be more active in the future. When you see the second son of the Duke's Mansion, don't be too dull. You must take the initiative to talk to him and show your goodwill. Do you understand?"
Shen Wantang almost rolled her eyes at him. Who was it that said that women should be simple and down-to-earth and not indulge in flowery things?
She casually evaded Shen Guannian with a remark: "Father, you are worrying too much. I am a girl in the boudoir and I cannot meet the son of the Duke's Mansion."
Shen Guannian frowned. That’s true!
He had to think of a way to get his daughter to "encounter" the Second Master Gu more often!
He suddenly straightened his chest and cleared his throat, "Ahem! Don't worry, Tang'er, just dress up. Your father has been an official in the court for so many years, so he still has some connections. I will find out where the second young master Gu likes to go, and then you can go find him! My daughter is so beautiful, he will definitely be attracted to you when he sees you!"
Shen Wantang: "I advise father not to waste his efforts. Haven't you heard? Second Master Gu is a homosexual. He is a homosexual."
Shen Guannian: “What?!”
"Yes, you heard it right. He likes men. It's all over the place."
Shen Guannian choked up, and after a long while, he snorted coldly: "So what if he likes homosexuality? This is popular in the capital. Which young man hasn't been to Wanye Tower to show his support? No matter how homosexual he is, he still has to marry, right? Listen to me, you will marry him!"
