223 The Children’s Father Has Arrived

Seeing that Madam Yun wasn’t able to refute, Madam Qian’s words became increasingly over-the-top. “Madam Yun, I know that you dote on your daughter. Don’t worry, when Weiwei marries into our family, I’ll help you educate her. I’ll hire the best teacher to teach her violin and even get someone to come and specially teach her how to retain a man’s heart.

“So, let us fix a date for their wedding today. Nanyin is still young, but he will be mature after he is married!”

“...”

Madam Yun grew even more enraged. Her chest was heaving up and down as she clutched Yun Wei’s hands tightly. Even her eyes were red, yet she wasn’t able to make any rebuttal.

Yun Wei’s countenance was ashen.

At this moment, Shen Ruojing locked her phone and her clear voice suddenly rang out, “Does Madam Qian have a daughter?”

Everyone started slightly.

Only now did Yun Wei realize that Shen Ruojing was asking her.

She immediately nodded. “Yes, she is only 17 years old this year…”

“Oh.” Shen Ruojing calmly continued, “In that case, what is Madam Qian teaching her now? The piano? Violin? Cello? Organ? Or the zither? Could it be the erhu? Miss Qian must be learning everything, right? After all, she has no idea what her future husband will like. Isn’t that so?”

Madam Qian. “??”

Yun Wei immediately felt satisfied when she heard these words and saw the embarrassed look on Madam Qian’s face. She smiled and asked, “Oh right. Aunt Qian, I wonder how much little sister Qian has learned?”

Madam Qian choked. “...She is still young, so there’s no hurry.”

However, Madam Qian wasn’t willing to appear weak. She grew anxious in her heart and decided to change the topic. “Madam Yun, so we are here today to confirm a date…”

She could only relax after the wedding date was confirmed.

At this moment, Madam Yun was no longer angry. She smiled and said, “No hurry. At the very least, we have to wait until Little Wei learns the violin. If not, what will happen if she fails to retain Nanyin’s heart after she marries? Isn’t that so?”

“...” Madam Qian felt as though she had just picked up a rock and smashed it at her own foot. “I was just joking earlier. For rich families like ours, why would we need to learn any musical instrument? We can simply hire a few internationally famous violin players to perform for us.”

After she finished speaking, Madam Qian’s gaze landed on Shen Ruojing. She narrowed her eyes. “This is?”

She could see very clearly that it only took Shen Ruojing a single sentence to make her become so passive.

Madam Yun then officially introduced Shen Qianhui and Shen Ruojing. But because Shen Ruojing wasn’t together with Chu Cichen, and Chu Cichen’s attitude was currently unclear, Madam Yun didn’t bother to mention Shen Ruojing’s relationship with Chu Cichen.

After Madam Qian understood, she lowered her eyelids and mockingly smiled. “Oh, so you two are distant relatives of the Yun Family! I was wondering why I have not met the two of you before.”

The word ‘distant relatives’ had a subtle meaning. She made it sound as though Shen Qianhui and Shen Ruojing were coming here to be busybodies.

Madam Yun then frowned and reiterated solemnly, “Qianhui is my aunt-in-law’s biological daughter, and she belongs to the direct line of descent. Since my aunt didn’t marry anyone, it means that Qianhui is a part of the Yun Family.”

After saying that, she paused. “Zhengyang has said that Qianhui’s status is equal to that of his biological younger sister.”

Hearing this, Madam Qian’s lips twitched.

Shen Qianhui didn’t even have any shares in the Yun Family’s business, so how could she be considered Yun Zhengyang’s biological sister?

In comparison, Wen Yuyi’s mother was just a god-daughter, but she had 5% of the total shares of the Yun Family’s business!

However, since Yun Zhengyang had said this, it was impossible for Madam Qian to make any rebuttal.

She lowered her eyelids and continued, “Since you two have come to the Yun Family, you have to be clear of the rules in influential families. When the elders are talking, how can the juniors casually interject?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

She was looking directly at Shen Ruojing. “Our family and the Yun Family aren’t strangers. Madam Yun might be too kind, so she didn’t remind you about the rules. But as for me, I think I should inform you. The Yun Family is different from the family you came from when you are in Sea City. You are just from a small family, so you can act as casually as you want there. However, for influential families like us, we all emphasize…”

After saying that, she didn’t wait for Shen Ruojing to reply and immediately turned to Madam Yun. “Madam Yun, you won’t blame me for being nosy, right? I won’t ridicule them even if they don’t show me propriety. But in front of outsiders, if she interrupts casually like this, she will become a joke and people will say that her family lacks discipline…”

She didn’t dare to say anything ruthless to Madam Yun, but she didn’t give a damn about a small character like Shen Ruojing. She would scold her whenever she felt like it.

Shen Ruojing lifted her eyebrows when she heard this.

Yun Wei’s expression changed again and she involuntarily called out, “Aunt Qian, you are too much!”

Madam Yun’s expression also turned cold. “Madam Qian, speak cautiously!”

Shen Qianhui, who was someone famous for doting on her daughter, was also angry. “Casually accusing the daughters of other people. Is this the so-called ‘discipline’ of the Qian Family?’

Madam Qian choked again and was speechless.

At this moment, a voice rang out from above. “Aunt Qian!”

Wen Yuyi led Qian Nanyin down the stairs and walked to Madam Qian’s side, “Aunt Qian, I came to greet you after knowing that you came.”

Madam Qian immediately held her hands. “Look at this, this is what a good kid is. She knows the rules!”

After she finished her words, she looked at Madam Yun and Shen Qianhui again. “Madam Yun and Mrs. Shen, please don’t be anxious. I’m only saying that to Miss Shen for the sake of her own good. If not, how would she be able to find a good family to marry into in the future?”

After she said that, Wen Yuyi hurriedly added, “Aunt Qian, Shen Qianhui already have children.”

“Have children?” Madam Qian was stunned.

Although Shen Qianhui was already 26 years old, she maintained herself well and her face looked young and tender. No one would suspect anything even if she said she was studying at university. Yet, she already had children?

She couldn’t help but ask, “In that case, which family is her husband from?”

Wen Yuyi revealed an embarrassed smile and spoke softly, “Miss Shen is not married…”

“Not married? Giving birth to children while not being married?” Madam Qian’s voice immediately grew louder. “Yun Wei, I have to talk to you properly. You best stay away from this woman, or you might be led astray! If a girl doesn’t know how to cherish herself, she will be abandoned by her man sooner or later…”

Wen Yuyi quickly acted kindly and explained, “No, no. Aunt Qian, you are mistaken. Miss Shen is now a relative of the Yun Family, so how could she be abandoned? Yesterday, I even saw the father of her children standing at Yun Manor’s entrance, wanting Miss Shen to take responsibility…”

As she said this, Shen Qianhui was shocked. “What?”

Madam Yun was also dumbstruck and then asked, “Wen Yuyi, what are you talking about?”

The father of the children…Wasn’t that Chu Cichen?

Didn’t he chase Jingjing out of the Chu Family? Why would he stand at the Yun Manor’s entrance and utter such words?

The reactions of these two also caused Wen Yuyi to start. “It is true, I saw it personally.”

Shen Qianhui immediately looked at Shen Ruojing joyfully and said, “Jingjing, Chu…hmm did the father of the children change his mind?”

Madam Yun immediately persuaded, “If this is the case, you should give him another chance!”

Madam Qian who was watching this at the side clapped her thighs suddenly. “Miss Shen, are you planning to abandon the father of your children, so you can find an influential family to marry into? However, you already have children, so how can it be possible for you to find any good families? Although the background of the father of your children isn’t good, you already have children with him after all. How can you still abandon him? Wouldn’t you become a female version of Chen Shimei* then?!”

(The background of the father isn’t good?)

Madam Yun and Shen Qianhui immediately looked at her speechlessly.

At this moment, a butler from the Yun Family rushed in. “Madam, Matriarch Chu and Mr. Chu have arrived!”

Her elder sister, Matriarch Chu, wanted to come. This was something Madam Yun knew about, but…

Madam Yun then asked, “Mr. Chu? Which Mr. Chu?”

“Mr. Chu Cichen.”

“...'”

Hearing this, Madam Yun and Shen Qianhui exchanged a glance.

(Well, the father of the children has arrived now!)

Madam Qian’s eyes fervently glanced at the entrance.

Matriarch Chu? The Chu Family of Sea City? That was a major influential family that was far more impressive compared to the Yun Family!
