Chapter 237 Green Tea Selfish Cousin 6
Tan Yuan smiled at her and said, "I can see that Cang Cang has a very good fate."
"Really?" Although he was not very surprised, Shen Weicang still showed a bright smile.
"Tan Yuan, you are the state teacher of Chen State, so everything you say must be right."
Tan Yuan withdrew his hand and clenched his fist silently.
Yan Qizhao was right, Shen Weicang was indeed the person he wanted to marry.
He lowered his eyes to hide the coldness in them. No matter how Yan Qizhao determined Cang Cang's identity, he would never let him marry Cang Cang.
Shen Weicang was thinking about what Tan Yuan said about his extremely good fate. Could it be that Lan Zhinian would not die?
A familiar chill came over her wrist as the black snake wrapped around her, the entire snake clinging tightly to her. She had an intuition from somewhere that the snake seemed a little anxious.
She found it interesting and raised her wrist to flick the black snake's head: "Wasn't it quite cheerful when it went out today? Why is it so listless now?"
The black snake's head lay listlessly on her finger, and it spat out its tongue.
Shen Weicang looked at Tan Yuan in surprise: "Is it sick? Why is it so listless all of a sudden?"
Tan Yuan glanced at it calmly and said, "Maybe it's tired. It's very lazy. Let it sleep for a while."
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pinched the snake's head. The black snake soon lay limply in Shen Weicang's hand and did not move.
At first she was startled and thought that the snake was crushed to death by Tan Yuan. She was relieved only after repeatedly confirming that it was really just asleep.
This little gadget is quite interesting, and it can also convey messages to Tan Yuan. It would be a shame if it died.
Tan Yuan saw her concern and a feeling he had never felt before arose in his heart, a little depressed. Before he could react, he reached out, picked up the black snake and threw it aside without any hesitation.
After raising the snake for more than 20 years, he still couldn't control his emotions. If he felt a little upset, the snake would react ten or a hundred times more.
Shen Weicang exclaimed, "Tan Yuan, don't throw it so hard."
Tan Yuan comforted her: "It's okay, its skin is very thick, it won't hurt if it falls."
He reached out and grabbed her wrist: "Cang Cang, have you suffered any injustice in the Xie Mansion these days?"
"No...no," Shen Weicang looked away, somewhat evasively.
"The wife of the Xie family's housekeeper is my aunt. How could anyone bully me? I live a good life here. The food I eat every day is very good. My aunt even made several sets of clothes specifically for me, and..."
Tan Yuan didn't want to interrupt his beloved, but her forced smile hurt his eyes, so he used a little more force in his hand:
"Cang Cang, if you are unhappy, just say it. Don't say anything that goes against your heart."
Shen Weicang seemed to be afraid to look him in the eye, and said evasively: "I didn't say anything against my heart, everything I said was true."
"Cang Cang, when you lie, you get nervous and keep saying little things," Tan Yuan said with disapproval.
"Don't speak well of those who bully you. Tell me, did the people from Xie Mansion bully you?"
Tan Yuan was so distressed by Shen Weicang's frowning expression that his rationality had long disappeared.
He could not imagine that the black snake had never conveyed to him the information that Cang Cang was being bullied, and he had never sensed any anger from the black snake because of the suffering of his beloved.
He had already determined that the people in the Xie Mansion had treated Shen Weicang badly. No matter whether Shen Weicang said it or not, the account had already been recorded on the Xie Mansion.
Shen Weicang wanted to deny it, but Tan Yuan saw what she wanted to say, and gently touched her soft and red lips with his slender fingers: "Cangcang, no need to say more, I know everything."
What does he know?
Shen Weicang's eyes flickered, and he thought with interest that this was a good opportunity to use the Lan family to test Tan Yuan's true feelings for her.
As a symbol of peace between the two countries and the wife of the general who protects the country, Lan has an imperial decree.
She wanted to see how Tan Yuan would deal with Lan for her sake.
"Tan Yuan, I..."
Shen Weicang hesitated and sighed, "There is one thing I really have no one to talk to. Please don't tell anyone else after you listen to me."
Tan Yuan looked at her deeply: "Of course, I am already very surprised that Cang Cang is willing to trust me. How could he do such a mean thing."
Shen Weicang then said in embarrassment:
"It's my aunt. She wrote to my mother and said that she missed her family very much in Chen State. She didn't have a daughter, so she wanted to bring me here to stay for a few months."
"But when I came to the general's mansion, my aunt never introduced my identity to anyone."
"I have been very embarrassed in the mansion until now. I dare not leave the yard on weekdays because my aunt has hinted many times that I can't walk around freely."
"My aunt said that she had a hard time in the Xie family. Everyone was watching her, so she didn't dare to get too close to her family. That's why she didn't dare to admit my identity to the public."
Shen Weicang said, looking at Tan Yuan with some doubt: "But Tan Yuan, why do I always feel that something is wrong? Am I too sensitive?"
Tan Yuan was filled with boundless anger. Lan didn't intend to bring her niece to get together with him. It was obvious that she was planning to take advantage of Cang Cang.
She was not allowed to move around freely, firstly because they were afraid that the servants in the Xie Mansion might let slip something and she would find out, and secondly because they were worried that her beauty would attract the attention of her two useless sons.
Thinking of this, Tan Yuan already had murderous intent in his heart.
He suppressed his anger for the time being and gently persuaded Shen Weicang: "Cangcang, you are absolutely right. The Lan family must have bad intentions towards you."
"Cang Cang, don't stay in Xie's house anymore, come to my house."
Tan Yuan said, worried that Shen Weicang would misunderstand, and quickly explained: "I don't mean anything else, I'm just worried that you will be in danger if you continue to stay there."
Shen Weicang shook his head:
"I appreciate your kindness, but my aunt didn't do anything excessive. I think we should not speculate about her like this. If she knew, she would definitely be sad."
Tan Yuan thought expressionlessly that he not only wanted to make Lan sad, he also wanted to dig out her heart.
The sweetheart's gentle voice echoed in my ears:
"Besides, my aunt is not indifferent to me. She said a few days ago that she would help me choose a good husband and let me stay in Chen State."
"What?" Tan Yuan raised his eyes in a big reaction, "Cang Cang, what did you say?"
Shen Weicang seemed to be startled by him, and his body trembled: "It's just... it's just that my aunt wants to find a good husband for me... Tan Yuan, what's wrong?"
Tan Yuan forced a soothing smile: "Nothing, I just heard it wrong, Cang Cang, I'm sorry, did I scare you?"
Shen Weicang shook his head: "No, it didn't scare me."
But Tan Yuan still held her shoulders tenderly and held her in his arms:
"Cang Cang, if someone does something wrong and offends you, you should know how to fight back and not let yourself be wronged."
Shen Weicang curled his lips silently, as if he was deeply moved by his words, and unconsciously put his arms around his waist:
"Tan Yuan, I'm so lucky. I met a good person like you not long after I came to Chen State."
Tan Yuan's body suddenly stiffened.
He was wearing intricate and gorgeous clothes, but through the layers of clothes, he could still accurately feel the feeling of his beloved's soft arms holding him and the indescribable strength.
At this moment, he didn't even dare to breathe, for fear that breathing too vigorously would scare her.
Then, he felt sad again. Cang Cang must have been wronged since childhood, so she would be so moved when others said something nice to her, and she would believe everything others said.
No, he could not let such a beautiful woman suffer. No one could bully or use her, not Lan, not Yan Qizhao!
