Chapter 185 They are really not Mr. Shen, who called them to choose a husband for you
Shen Ruolan looked at the many brothers introduced by her second uncle Shen, with a confused look on her face. She roughly counted them in her mind and found that there were twelve brothers in total.
Apart from the three brothers who were the most outstanding in appearance, I couldn't remember the others at all, not a single one.
Of course, it’s not that the other brothers are not good-looking, it’s just that they are slightly inferior to the previous brothers.
After Uncle Shen finished introducing them, Shen Ruolan walked in front of everyone, bowed to them and said, "Ruolan greets the brothers."
Shen Ziqian took the lead and said to Shen Ruolan: "We are all family, Sister Lan, there is no need to be polite."
Shen Hui, who was the most lively among the crowd, came to Shen Ruolan and asked her with a smile: "Sister Ruolan, is that your child?"
Shen Ruolan nodded to Shen Hui and said, "Yes."
Shen Ziqian, the leader, heard what Shen Ruolan said. He stepped forward and asked her, "Sister Lan, are you married?"
After Shen Ziqian finished speaking, he looked at this cousin who looked like his sister, and was a little absent-minded. If Die'er hadn't died, her child should have grown up, but...
Thinking of this, Shen Ziqian couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It seemed as if their Shen family was cursed. In every generation, one or two girls would die young, which made him feel very sad.
Although they were very careful, they still couldn't resist the arrangement of fate.
Shen Ruolan didn't know how to answer Shen Ziqian's question. She smiled at him and changed the subject, "Cousin, you must be very tired after all this journey. Come into the house and take a rest. I'll go put the child to sleep and then come out to cook."
After saying this, she instructed Aunt Liu, "Aunt Liu, bring the young lady over here."
"Yes, master." Aunt Liu responded to Shen Ruolan respectfully.
When Shen Hui saw Shen Ruolan leaving with the child in her arms, he looked at his eldest brother with dissatisfaction and said, "Brother, you are too abrupt. Isn't the child in her arms the best proof of whether or not cousin Ruolan is married?"
Shen Ziqian looked at Shen Ruolan's departing back, and said with a somewhat lost look: "When I saw her, it was like seeing Die'er, so I just wanted to care for her more."
After Shen Ziqian finished speaking, everyone fell silent. Die'er's death was an eternal pain in all of their hearts.
Jiang Dichen's brows have been furrowed since Shen Ziqian and the others entered the door. He couldn't understand why Old Master Shen called all the younger generations of his Shen family to this deep mountain.
Behind him, Yan Mo glanced at the many younger generations of the Shen family. He "tsk tsk tsk" a few times and said to himself, "This old man Shen called all the sons of the Shen family here. Could he be asking Miss Shen to choose a husband?"
Yan Mo's words made Jiang Dichen's eyebrows jump. Old Master Shen was really capable of doing such a thing. He wondered what choice Shen Ruolan would make.
Jiang Dichen was very upset when he thought of this. He had to find a way to stop Shen Ruolan from getting married.
Jiang Dichen was a man of action. While he was thinking about things in his mind, he also took action honestly with his body. He walked through the Shen family and came to the door of Shen Ruolan's room. He walked in without even knocking.
Shen Ruolan, who was feeding her child, saw Jiang Dichen coming into her room. She frowned and asked him, "What are you doing here?"
It was the first time that Jiang Dichen saw Shen Ruolan breastfeeding a baby. Looking at her soft and white features, he was reminded of the time when they were together, and his lower abdomen suddenly felt uncomfortable.
Jiang Dichen suppressed his discomfort, came to sit next to Shen Ruolan, and said to her softly: "Ruolan, I know you don't like me, but can you give me a chance for the sake of the children? I promise you that I will never lay a hand on you again, okay?"
Shen Ruolan looked at him coldly and refused: "Jiang Dichen, just give up on this idea. I, Shen Ruolan, will never be with you again."
It is impossible for Shen Ruolan to get married in her lifetime. She just wants to raise her two children. After they get married and support themselves, she will find a quiet place to spend the rest of her life.
After listening to Shen Ruolan's words, Jiang Dichen stared at her and asked, "Is it because of the group of men outside?"
Shen Ruolan looked at him fiercely, lowered her voice and shouted at him angrily: "Jiang Dichen, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want. Those outside are my brothers. If you keep talking nonsense, get out of the mountain right now."
Jiang Dichen stared at Shen Ruolan and asked again, "Are they really not the ones that Mr. Shen called to choose a husband for you?"
If Shen Ruolan wasn't holding two children with her hands busy, she would definitely slap Jiang Dichen again. They are relatives, okay? How can they get married?
Shen Ruolan took a deep breath and said to Jiang Dichen, "Go out. I don't want to talk to you, let alone quarrel with you."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Dichen said stubbornly: "If you don't tell me the answer today, I will stay here tonight."
If the people from the Shen family really came to let Shen Ruolan choose a husband, then he would not be afraid that Shen Ruolan would hate him tonight. He would just live in her house and use practical actions to tell the people from the Shen family that she, Shen Ruolan, is his woman.
Anyway, Shen Ruolan hated him more than a little, so he didn't mind a little more.
"You..." Shen Ruolan was so angry at Jiang Dichen's shamelessness that she had no choice but to tell him the truth: "They were called by my grandfather to take my mother home."
Jiang Dichen was relieved to hear that she was here to pick up Aunt Shen. He was silent for a moment and then asked her, "Aren't you going back with them?"
Shen Ruolan is Aunt Shen's only daughter, and she has to hold her coffin along the way.
Shen Ruolan lowered her head and looked at the two children, and said to him, "Whether I go or not has nothing to do with you."
Jiang Dichen thought for a moment and said, "If you want to go to the capital, I will go with you."
When Shen Ruolan heard that Jiang Dichen was going back to Beijing, she paused for a moment and said to him, "I'm not going anywhere."
After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she added in her heart that even if she went, she would not tell you.
When Jiang Dichen heard that Shen Ruolan was not going, he was silent for a moment and said, "I have something to do and I have to go back to the capital. If you encounter any trouble here, just go to Cangling City to find the county magistrate and General Su for help. I will come to see you when I am free."
Shen Ruolan seemed not to hear Jiang Dichen's words. She lowered her head to look at her two children and was reluctant to even glance at Jiang Dichen.
When the Shen family members outside the door saw Jiang Dichen enter Shen Ruolan's inner room, they all looked at each other and asked Shen Ziqian with a puzzled look on their faces: "Brother, could it be that the King of Cold in Beiming is the son-in-law of our Shen family?"
Shen Ziqian stared at Shen Ruolan's door in silence for a while, then said to his brothers, "Maybe."
He didn't know the specific situation because his grandfather only told them to prepare some funeral supplies and didn't say anything else.
