Cultivating Immortality Begins with Selling Oneself

Chapter 74 Gift
Shen Yingfeng tried to persuade Widow Chen.

But, does Widow Chen care about these things? Does she care about her reputation?

Anyway, I have been labeled with many labels, so what if I become a fickle person?

She likes Shen Yingfeng, this kind of weak pretty boy.

That's right, even if Xiao Taohong doesn't give her any benefits, Widow Chen is willing to spend the night with Shen Yingfeng.

No matter what Shen Yingfeng said, no matter how he threatened or lured her, Widow Chen was determined to marry him. Shen Yingfeng was so angry that his nose was crooked. How could there be such a stubborn person in the world?

Widow Chen didn't even take a look at what he looked like and whether she was worthy of marrying him!
"Shen Yingfeng, if you don't marry me, I will hire someone to advertise in front of the Shen Mansion every day."

"Well, since you don't want to drink the wine, don't blame me for being rude."

Shen Yingfeng's eyes turned fierce. He took out a dagger from his waist and stabbed towards Widow Chen in the chest without saying a word.

As long as Widow Chen died, all this could be treated as if it had never happened.

At this moment, the door was suddenly kicked open.

"Shen Yingfeng, what do you want to do?" Mrs. Shen's scolding voice reached his ears. Shen Yingfeng was stunned for a moment, and soon the dagger in his hand was forcibly taken away.

Sensing everyone's gazes, Shen Yingfeng's body stiffened for a moment. He slowly turned around and met the gazes of many ladies who were watching a show. Shen Yingfeng felt dizzy. It was over, it was all over. Who would be willing to marry him in the future?
Shen Yingfeng looked at Madam Shen with hatred. He was absolutely certain that this matter must have been Madam Shen's doing. It could have been resolved privately, but Madam Shen came with a large group of people with the purpose of forcing him.

Regardless of what everyone thought, Shen Yingfeng quickly knelt in front of Madam Shen, "Sister-in-law, I was drunk and didn't know how I ended up in the room. Widow Chen took advantage of me. Sister-in-law, you must make the decision for me."

"If you don't believe me, you can go find a doctor to check me out. I definitely have traces of drugs given by Widow Chen."

Shen Yingfeng had only one thought in his mind, that is, he could not marry Widow Chen no matter what.

Even if he didn't care about his reputation, he would never marry Widow Chen.

After all, as long as Shen Yingfeng is the young master of the Shen family, there will be people who are greedy for money and want to marry their daughters to him for the sake of wealth and glory. If Shen Yingfeng marries the widow Chen, even if he divorces her in the future, no decent girl will marry him.

It was precisely because he knew this that Shen Yingfeng was unwilling to marry Widow Chen no matter what.

"You're such a heartless man."

In front of so many ladies and young ladies, Widow Chen had no sense of shame. She straightened her clothes, rummaged in her pocket, took out a letter and threw it hard in Shen Yingfeng's face.

"You're really confusing right and wrong. Look who wrote this letter? Who invited me here? We agreed on something, and now you want to turn your back on me. Shen Yingfeng, I'm telling you, no way! Today, you must marry me. You can skip the sedan chair, but you must pay me a hundred taels of silver as a betrothal gift, not a penny less."

Shen Yingfeng picked up the letter with a confused look on his face.

"Come see me tonight."

It is indeed his handwriting, but he has never written this sentence.

After a brief moment of confusion, Shen Yingfeng reacted and wanted to tear up the note.

At this moment, Shen Fuyu's petite figure squeezed in from the crowd of ladies, snatched the letter from Shen Yingfeng's hand, and handed it to Madam Shen's arms. Before everyone could react, Shen Fuyu hid in the crowd again.

Things developed as expected.

How could she give Shen Yingfeng a chance to turn the tables?

The ladies had had enough of the gossip and started to speak up. "A real man should be brave enough to take responsibility for his actions. Shen Yingfeng, we all saw what you did. If you had married Widow Chen respectfully, we would have respected you as a man."

"Yeah, yeah, what a coward. Why didn't you think so much when you were having fun? Now you regret it. What's wrong with being a widow? Does a widow deserve to be taken advantage of by you?"

"Mrs. Shen, you are a smart person. I believe you know how to handle this matter. If we allow Shen Yingfeng to do whatever he wants, the Shen family's family education will be too low. Who would dare to marry their daughter into the Shen family in the future?"

Mrs. Jiang seemed to be threatening Mrs. Shen to some extent.

Of all the ladies present, Mrs. Jiang held the deepest hatred for Shen Yingfeng. A year ago, Shen Yingfeng had met the Jiang family's daughter, but the Jiang family's daughter didn't like the lazy Shen Yingfeng. Shen Yingfeng became furious and wanted to destroy the Jiang family's daughter's reputation. If Mrs. Jiang hadn't reacted quickly, he couldn't imagine the consequences.

Mrs. Jiang knew that it was extremely foolish to go against the Shen family. After all, it was one of the four major families, and a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Therefore, Mrs. Shen concentrated her firepower on Shen Yingfeng, and the Shen family gave Mrs. Jiang an explanation as she wished.

Although the matter has been resolved, the gap still exists.

Now that Shen Yingfeng is in trouble, Mrs. Jiang is the first one to step on him.

"Mrs. Jiang, this is our family affair. What does it have to do with you?"

"My husband is the Minister of Justice, and he should be in charge of these matters. If anyone dares to bully the people, I will report it to my husband and ask him to investigate thoroughly."

There are threats in his words.

Madam Shen pretended to be helpless. Under Shen Yingfeng's resistance, Madam Shen slowly opened her lips and said, "Madam Jiang is right."

"Widow Chen, we are sorry for what happened to you. If you are willing, you can marry into the Shen family."

"I do!" Widow Chen's eyes lit up instantly. "Madam, I don't need a wedding. I can stay at the Shen family tonight. But I hope you can ask Shen Yingfeng to give me a betrothal gift of one hundred taels."

"no problem."

Mrs. Shen agreed readily. After all, it was Shen Yingfeng's money, so what did it have to do with her?

"As expected of the wife of the head of the family, she knows how to handle things. Even if this matter gets out, people will definitely praise Madam Shen for her good housekeeping."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't expect Shen Yingfeng to have such strong tastes. No wonder he has been unmarried for so many years. I guess it's just to wait for Widow Chen."

"The birthday banquet turned into a wedding banquet. Master Shen is so lucky. We are really envious of him."

No matter how dissatisfied Shen Yingfeng was, he did not dare to go against the many ladies present.

He tried his best to suppress his inner anger and silently memorized all the sarcastic people in his heart. He remembered every one of them!
Once he gets through this difficult time, he will definitely find a suitable opportunity to take revenge on them.

Hiding in the crowd and trying hard to reduce her presence, Shen Fuyu concealed her achievements and fame. She raised her hand to cover her mouth and chuckled, her eyes full of gloating.

Live it!

Since Shen Yingfeng dared to plot against Mrs. Shen, he should be prepared for revenge.

This is just one of the great gifts.

I don’t know…

Can Shen Yingfeng handle the next gift? What will be his reaction? It's really exciting!
