101 Showing Her Off
Duan Si’s smile crept up the corners of her mouth again. “But he’s married, but Old Master has Mu En by his side. That’s equivalent to telling outsiders that the heir has yet to be confirmed and Mu Ci has yet to be confirmed!”
Song Nan was confused. “That doesn’t mean he chose Mu En, does it?”
Duan Si was not angry. Instead, she nodded affirmatively. “That’s right! However, Mu En’s status has also stabilized. At the very least, he’s the most promising candidate! Because this is the first important banquet that was held after Mu Ci’s marriage.”
Duan Si looked like she could fly even if she had wings.
Song Nan subconsciously caressed a cheongsam on her body. It felt smooth and well-made. It should be produced by Jin’s. Each piece cost at least six figures. Duan Si did not spend so much money just to let her cheer for her son, right?
“Then, isn’t it inappropriate for me to go with you?” Song Nan’s long eyelashes drooped, and her expression was the kind of timid inferiority complex that Duan Si liked. Such an expression made Duan Si feel extremely superior.
As expected, Duan Si was in a good mood. She held her hand and said, “Good child, I brought you there for a mission.”
In this world, there was never a free lunch.
Song Nan looked up at Duan Si obediently, as if to say, “Auntie, go ahead. I’ll do anything.”
Duan Si reached out to stroke Song Nan’s hair lovingly. “Mu En has already asked around. This time, the eldest grandson of the Shen Family’s old lady is also back. The old lady is very happy. This young master is the old lady’s darling! Moreover, he’s an unmarried bachelor. Old Madam Shen has already spread the word that her granddaughter-in-law doesn’t need to have a high status, but she needs to have a good character. It means that as long as her eldest grandson likes her, it doesn’t matter even if she’s a prisoner in prison!”
Only then did Song Nan realize that she was using her to show off. Yes, she wasn’t even qualified to go on a blind date. She was just showing her off for others to choose from.
Song Nan looked a little shy. “Auntie, I’m afraid that people like her are even more picky. Although they say so, they still care about the family background.”
Duan Si patted her hand. “What’s there to be afraid of? As long as Old Madam likes you, your family background won’t be a problem at all. You’ll have Auntie to back you up! Think about it, the Shen Family won’t lose to the Mu Family at all. When the time comes and you become the Shen Family’s Eldest Young Madam, I’ll be your maternal family. The entire Mu Family will be very willing to be your maternal family. You must straighten your back. You’re not inferior to anyone!”
Duan Si did his best to encourage her.
Song Nan smiled bitterly in her heart.
“How old is the young master of the Shen Family?” Song Nan asked carefully.
“I don’t know,” Duan Si answered straightforwardly.
Song Nan almost suffocated.
Wasn’t it too irresponsible of her to use her as a prop? She didn’t even know his age, let alone his looks and character? So she only knew that he was the eldest grandson of the Shen Family?
However, from another perspective, it made sense. What was the difference between a marriage between wealthy families and a blind marriage? As long as the benefits were equal, it didn’t matter if he was Tom, Dick, or Harry.
Song Nan, are you still hoping for love?
Although I don’t want to, I can’t jump into every pit, right?
So what? What right do you have to be picky?
No.
Song Nan was in a dilemma. If there was no result, she would lose.
She had no background and had to rely on others. If Eldest Madam Mu could marry her off and find her a family that was compatible with the Mu Family, she would be letting her down. Moreover, she had to repay her kindness for the rest of her life. She did not have to wait until the next life. With Eldest Madam Mu’s temper, it was better to repay the kindness in this life!
Song Nan smiled and calmed himself down.
Duan Si was already picking out jewelry. She said, “Why did I choose a cheongsam for you instead of a gown? Because Old Madam Shen is an old-fashioned person. A cheongsam should be paired with pearls. Try it on!”
Song Nan looked at herself in the mirror. She looked mature and steady, like a woman in his thirties.
Bei Shuo’s young face suddenly flashed across her mind. She was only five years older than Bei Shuo.
Bei Shuo was still as innocent as a young girl, but she was already ageing!
Couldn’t people fight with their fates? Does she, Song Nan, deserve a tough life?
