The famous Shen family is holding a birthday party for their great-granddaughter Shen Jingwen. The guests are gathering and it is very lively.
In the hotel room, Shen Shengxue clenched her fists, her eyes were shining brightly, and her face was full of grievance and helplessness. It should have been a happy day, but Shen Ruxue couldn't be happy no matter what.
"Mom!" The little girl Shen Jingwen looked at her mother worriedly, shrank into her arms, and shivered.
Shen Shengxue squeezed out a motherly smile on her face and gently stroked the little girl's head, "Mom is fine."
"Chen Xia, if you are a man, go and tell the old man clearly, what does this mean to him? Do you want to watch your daughter's happiness be ruined?" Shen's mother Zhang Yi screamed, furious.
Originally, today was to celebrate the birthday of her granddaughter Shen Jingwen, which was a very happy day. However, the old man Shen Zhanpeng was going to announce today that Shen Shengxue would be married to Tang Bao, the youngest son of the Tang family. This was obviously to cause trouble for them.
Who in Yongcheng doesn’t know that Tang Bao is a fool and mentally retarded? It’s because the old man Shen Zhanpeng wants to climb the dragon and the phoenix, and wants to climb the big tree of the Tang family for shade.
In the eyes of old man Shen Zhanpeng, their lineage is the shame of the Shen family.
Shen Shengxue gave birth to a child out of wedlock, and no one even knew who the child's biological father was, making her the laughing stock of everyone. What's more, some people secretly scolded her for being shameless, and even her child Shen Jingwen was ridiculed.
He was looked down upon in the Shen family. His father, Shen Xia, was also looked down upon. In anger, he got into a car accident while driving. From then on, his legs were paralyzed and he could only sit in a wheelchair. Shen Xia, who was once high-spirited, gradually became submissive and submissive.
It's no longer what it used to be.
For this reason, Zhang Yi was also worried.
It's a pity that they don't have much power to resist in front of the old man Shen Zhanpeng.
In the heart of the old man Shen Zhanpeng, only his eldest son Shen Yi is his pride and the hope for the future of his Shen family. As for the Shen Xia lineage, it is dispensable, if not for the father-son relationship.
, perhaps he would have driven them out of the Shen family long ago to avoid being shamed by them.
"Dad also wants to be good for Shengxue. Marrying into the Tang family can be regarded as marrying into a rich family, and you will have no worries about food and drink. Who else is willing to marry her like him?" Shen Xia said weakly.
Over the years, he has gradually learned to accept things as they come.
"You...you..." Zhang Yi was trembling with anger and was speechless for a long time.
Shen Xia did not dare to speak, blushed and lowered her head.
"Mom, as long as the Tang family treats Jingwen well, I will marry her." Shen Shengxue's eyes were moist, with a feeling of helpless sadness.
Shen Shengxue has no regrets about her original choice. Now, it is the same. As long as they can treat her daughter as their own, she can only marry.
Zhang Yi looked at her daughter distressedly, tears welling up in her eyes, she sighed deeply and sobbed silently.
In her heart, Shen Shengxue is also her little cotton-padded jacket, and she has grown up holding it in her hands. Seeing how much she has endured for this family over the years, Zhang Yi feels very sorry for her, and it hurts her too.
Granddaughter Shen Jingwen.
The culprit of all this is the man, the man who caused his daughter to have a child out of wedlock.
"Let's go down, otherwise grandpa will be angry again." Shen Shengxue forced out a smile, holding her daughter Shen Jingwen's hand and walking towards the hall.
The hall was crowded with guests and very lively.
The old man Shen Zhanpeng was dressed in a Tang suit, sitting upright, playing with two walnuts in his hands. After decades of hand toy, the walnuts were very beautifully patinated. These two walnuts alone are worth millions. The old man Shen Zhanpeng
Consider it a heartache.
The eldest son Shen Yi stood aside with a proud and sinister smile on his lips.
He came up with the idea of marrying Shen Shengxue to Tang Bao. On the one hand, he could cling to the big tree of the Tang family in this way, and on the other hand, he could drive Shen Shengxue out of the Shen family to avoid dividing the family property in the future.
He also knew that even if Shen Shengxue married into the Tang family, the Tang family would not pay attention to her. The Tang family had already given up on their silly son Tang Bao, so how could they pay attention to his wife? In the final analysis, it was just for the sake of
Just find a free nanny to take care of him.
"Dad, it's almost time." Shen Yi whispered in his ear.
"Yes." Old man Shen Zhanpeng nodded slightly, carefully put away the two walnuts, and stood up slowly.
"Mom, I want to go to the toilet." The little girl Shen Jingwen's face was full of fear, and she held Shen Shengxue's hand tightly, her body trembling slightly.
She had been afraid of her great-grandfather since she was a child.
She also tried to act coquettishly with him, but all she got in return was a scolding and a blank stare.
In the eyes of the old man Shen Zhanpeng, she is proof of the Shen family's shame, a shame that can never be washed away. How can he look down upon her? Therefore, the little girl Shen Jingwen will be very scared every time she sees him.
Shen Shengxue looked at her grandfather Shen Zhanpeng who was standing on the stage, feeling a little at a loss. If she left at this time, she would probably get another scolding in return? Even the little girl Shen Jingwen would be scolded.
Stop?
Shen Shengxue hugged her and said softly: "Jingwen, please be patient."
"Mom, I know where the toilet is, I can just go there by myself." Shen Jingwen said obediently.
It was originally her birthday party, and she should be the protagonist, but it turned out like this. She just wanted to eat a piece of cake.
"Jingwen is so good." Shen Shengxue gently stroked her head, "Go quickly."
"Yeah." The little girl Shen Jingwen responded and secretly walked out from the side door.
Zhang Yi clenched her fists with a look of indignation on her face. She turned around and glanced at her husband Shen Xia beside her. As soon as the latter's eyes met hers, he immediately lowered his head.
He has become accustomed to such resignation.
In the Shen family, no matter how much they are bullied or ridiculed, they can still have enough food and clothing and have a place to live. But if they leave the Shen family, their family will probably live on the streets and be homeless.
"Wimp."
Zhang Yi couldn't suppress her anger and shouted angrily.
The corners of Shen Xia's mouth twitched a few times, and her head dropped lower.
"Ahem!"
On the stage, old man Shen Zhanpeng coughed twice and cleared his throat.
"Today is my great-granddaughter's birthday, and it is also my granddaughter's big day. I am here to announce that my granddaughter Shen Shengxue will marry Tang Bao, the third son of the Tang family. From now on, we and the Tang family will be one family.
"
Suddenly, applause broke out.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Shengxue.
However, it was more of a mocking look.
Shen Shengxue frowned, feeling uncomfortable all over.
Grief, helplessness, anger.
Shen Shengxue opened her mouth, wanting to protest, but when she turned around and saw her father's pleading eyes, her heart softened and she swallowed the words that came to her lips.
