She Became A Downfall Noble Lady

Bai Jingtang, while speaking, nudged Shen Yongzhen with his elbow and asked, "Brother Shen, do you think I’m right? We don’t just want to rely on the Yue Family for an easy life, we just don’t want to bury our own talents. Besides, Miss Ye is exceptional in all aspects, apart from her previous divorce. Take the railway carriage, for instance; how many men throughout the Great Xia Dynasty could handle such a matter so cleanly? And what about that dairy product popular among the eminent families in the capital, how much silver has it earned? Whichever family marries such a daughter-in-law, their fortune is bound to flourish."

Xiao Cheng still disagreed, stubbornly sticking to his own view, "Shouldn’t one marry a woman he likes? If he doesn’t like her, how can he endure day after day with a woman he dislikes after getting married?"

Bai Jingtang was at a loss for words, and he exchanged a glance with Shen Yongzhen. How could the lad be so clueless, even when things had been spelled out to this extent, he still didn’t understand.

Shen Yongzhen couldn’t help but ask, "Brother Xiao, we’ve known each other for some time now, if I may be so bold to ask, your family background isn’t bad, don’t tell me your grandfather, father, and uncles have no concubines?"

Xiao Cheng looked at the two, his eyes clear and candid as he said, "My grandmother said that concubines are the source of chaos in a family."

Bai Jingtang immediately burst into laughter.

Shen Yongzhen chuckled and replied, "There are so many wealthy families in this world, how many men are without concubines? And it’s not like many families are in chaos. As long as a man stands firm and takes charge of his household, neither wives nor concubines have the ability to create turmoil."

"Now that it’s Brother Shen’s wedding, as long as Brother Shen is satisfied, we naturally have to congratulate him. But, I cannot accept a woman who was someone else’s wife to be the mother of my children," Xiao Cheng shook his head and began to drink silently, no longer speaking.
