Chapter 1486 Deliver to Bed 1
Shen Yun was indeed sly and cunning. Her son wouldn’t even marry Miss Gongsun from a first-class family, let alone Su Zhenzhu. Agreeing at this moment would only force her son to turn against her, "Chuan’er is too strong-willed. If he treats Zhenzhu poorly in the future..."
"I don’t mind..." Su Zhenzhu blurted out.
Shen Yun slightly raised an eyebrow, "You don’t mind whether your husband is good to you or not, what are you really after?"
Her tone was powerful without anger.
Su Zhenzhu immediately knelt down, "I dare not have any ulterior motives. I genuinely like my brother-in-law (cousin sister’s husband)..."
Upon hearing the term ’brother-in-law (cousin sister’s husband)’, Shen Yun’s facial expression soured—how could she not know that Zhenzhu was after money? Shortly after she had married Xiao Chonghuan, some of her cousin sisters similarly set their sights on her husband, among them a cousin named Cai Lian who ingratiated herself abundantly and eventually was brought into the Xiao Mansion to become a concubine.
She had thought that sister cousins serving one husband together would get along well, yet who knew her cousin Cai Lian, relying on Xiao Chonghuan’s momentary favor, would no longer regard her, the main wife, taking her place.
In the end, that pitiful cousin "died of an illness".
A mere concubine, the husband didn’t bother to investigate the cause of death; he just gave Cai Lian’s family some silver taels, buried her, and that was that.
