Transmigrating into the book: The daughter of the Shen family is too arrogant

Chapter 143 Humiliation

Shen Xitong stood in the center of the table. She was stunningly beautiful and she raised her chin proudly.

After today, she will be able to completely get rid of her illegitimate status and live a superior life like all the legitimate daughters of aristocratic families present. She can even step on Shen Qingyu and beat and scold her as she pleases.

The young lady of the Nanrong family, that is the dream of many young ladies from aristocratic families.

Her mother asked someone to tell her fortune, and the only one who could marry into the Nanrong family was her, Shen Xitong.

Thinking of the immortal appearance of Young Master Nanrong, Shen Xitong's jade-like face turned even redder. "Xitong is not very talented and knowledgeable. I would like to play and sing a song for Madam Nanrong, which was composed by Princess Rong of the previous dynasty."

Liang Lan was just playing the piano, but Shen Xitong was more skilled, playing the piano and singing at the same time. No matter what the result was, she had already surpassed Liang Lan. Liang Lan was about to explode in anger, but was stopped by Madam Nan Rong, "Why are you in such a hurry? Your aunt still has some say over the old master."

As he spoke, he glanced behind the curtain and said, "With my aunt here, you are indispensable for the position of the young lady of the Nanrong Mansion."

Even if he married Shen Xitong, Nan Rongyan could still marry again. With the power and status of the Nan Rong family, no one would dare to say anything if he took another wife.

Back then, the master had planned to marry her as a co-wife, but unfortunately her elder sister died early, which caused her to bear the stigma of trying to usurp the position of the wife of the Nanrong family.

"lady."

At this time, the maid standing next to Madam Nan Rong whispered a few words in her ear. After hearing this, Madam Nan Rong widened her eyes in surprise, turned her head, and looked behind the curtain repeatedly, her face full of disbelief. Is the world going to change?

"you sure?"

Did he say this himself?

The elderly maid had sunken eyes and wrinkles at the corners of her eyes, but when she smiled, she looked kind and gentle, "It's rare for the young master to pay attention to you. I hope Madam will not reject your kindness."

After so many years, the young master's expressionless face finally showed a trace of human breath. If the lady knew about it, she would be relieved.

"That's natural."

Madam Nan Rong had long been fed up with the success of the eldest daughter of the Shen family. If she allowed this lowly woman to marry into the Nan Rong Mansion, how would she be able to hold her head up in front of the many ladies from aristocratic families in the future?

That is to say, the master was blinded by greed and beauty. Now that Master Nanrong has spoken personally, she has something to say to the master.

"Second Miss Shen." Madam Nan Rong interrupted Shen Xitong with a smile and ordered someone to remove the guqin in front of her. This change stunned everyone present, including Shen Xitong.

What happened?

Out of the blue, Miss Shen's performance was suddenly cancelled. You know, this Miss Shen might be the woman that Master Nanrong likes.

"Madam Nanrong, why is this happening?" Shen Xitong had prepared for a long time and practiced day and night in order to be the most beautiful girl today. She just wanted to shine at Madam Nanrong's birthday party. But now, Madam Nanrong cancelled her performance without saying a word, leaving her standing in the middle like a fool, being laughed at.

Shen Xitong was unwilling and angry, so she questioned Madam Nan Rong desperately.

"Miss Shen, is this the tone you use when talking to me? You are just a little illegitimate daughter of the Shen family, you don't know how high the heaven is and how deep the earth is. Even your legal mother, Madam Shen, wouldn't dare to be so disrespectful to me in front of me!"

The word "bastard" completely exposed Shen Xitong's true colors.

Among the ladies and young ladies from the noble families present, some suddenly realized that she was just a concubine's daughter.

"A young lady born out of wedlock is so unruly. I wonder how the rules of the Shen family were established." Mrs. Wei sneered.

Madam Liu added, "I originally heard that Mr. Shen favored his concubine over his wife, and I thought it was just a rumor, but seeing how spoiled Miss Shen is, it doesn't seem fake."

This Madam Liu is Aunt Liu's sister-in-law. When Aunt Liu was at her parents' home, she almost forced this sister-in-law into a desperate situation. So, when Madam Liu saw her niece Shen Xitong, it was like seeing her enemy Aunt Liu.

This mother and daughter are really the same person. They think they are beautiful and seduce men everywhere, even their own brother. Fortunately, Shen Chuanhe took that bitch Liu Hualing away early that year, otherwise the Liu family might have had a scandal between the brother and sister and would have been criticized by everyone in Jinling Prefecture.

Madam Liang pretended to sigh and said, "No wonder we have never seen Madam Shen take her legitimate daughter out of the house in all these years. It turns out that she was bullied by her illegitimate daughter. How pitiful."

In an instant, the Shen family's reputation was once again trampled under people's feet.

But what was different from the past was that this time, Shen Qingyu became the object of their sympathy, especially when they saw Shen Qingyu in a plain silk dress, they were more convinced that Shen Qingyu was being bullied in the Shen family.

Look at this illegitimate daughter, she is dressed in silk and satin all over, she wears much better than the legitimate daughter.

Many ladies from aristocratic families present at the scene took advantage of Shen Xitong's misfortune. On the one hand, they disliked Shen Xitong's illegitimate status, and on the other hand, they were worried that Shen Xitong would steal the limelight from their daughters.

"you……"

Shen Xitong was usually loved by Aunt Liu and Shen Chuanhe, and had never suffered such treatment. In addition, she was self-righteous and always thought that everything in the world should revolve around her. Now she was being pointed at by so many ladies from aristocratic families, and she was shaking with anger.

Before being provoked, Shen Xitong was the gentle and kind Miss Shen. Her disguise and pretending to be pitiful would make many men unwilling to hurt her. She was both talented and beautiful, confident and arrogant, and her dark thoughts, greed and cruelty were all deeply hidden by her. As long as that line was not touched, perhaps they would never be discovered.

But now, all the ladies and young ladies from the noble families present looked at her as if she were laughing at a joke, humiliated her with words, and belittled her status as a bastard to be worthless. She was so furious that she forgot to hide herself anymore.

"Shen Qingyu, why don't you say something? They are slandering our Shen family, and you are still sitting there like nothing happened. Shen Qingyu, are you still the daughter of our Shen family?"

Shen Xitong had been used to scolding Shen Qingyu for so many years. Even though she was whipped a few times by Shen Qingyu that day, she did not change her domineering attitude towards Shen Qingyu for a while.

Shen Qingyu still sat quietly. The Shen family had already lost face to this extent, so they might as well lose it completely.

Besides, what does the honor and disgrace of the Shen family have to do with her?

Moreover, letting Shen Xitong be exposed to this humiliation and abuse was exactly what she wanted, otherwise why would she provoke and offend Madam Nan Rong for no reason.

They are both members of the Shen family. When her younger sister did something wrong, how could Shen Xitong, as her elder sister, not take some responsibility?
