Shen Wei'er clenched her fists tightly. In truth, she had long since abandoned the idea of fighting back and had resigned herself to marrying Qian Mofeng. However, she did not want to leave in such a shabby, miserable state. She had already argued with her father about her dowry, but it had been to no avail. She had originally intended to cause a scene on her wedding day when all their relatives and friends were present, hoping that for the sake of his reputation, her father would add more to her dowry.
Qian Mofeng had so many concubines; if she did not have enough money when she married into his household, she would surely be bullied to death. But her mother was being so heartless toward her that it was impossible to go out and fight for more dowry now. Thinking of all this, she was nearly driven mad with rage.
She turned her head and glared viciously at the maids and wet nurses in the room, roaring, "All of you, slap yourselves! Keep slapping until I am satisfied!"
