"I wouldn't know the regret of missing someone you admire," Fu Dong said, "but if you were to leave us and the Shen Family because of that, then that would truly be a regret for us. I believe the other sisters would feel the same."
"Who says you would have to leave the Shen Family if you got married?" Shen Qinglan raised an eyebrow, "You are all part of the Shen Family. Even if you marry in the future, you would still be our Shen Family people."
"Moreover," Shen Qinglan continued, "getting married doesn't conflict with work. Just consider it as working for the Shen Family and earning some monthly salary to support the family."
Fu Dong heard this and smiled, "What you say makes sense."
Shen Qinglan smiled gently and said nothing more, instead continuing to eat breakfast with her head down.
Fu Dong stood up, brought over a bowl of vegetable soup, and asked softly, "Are you going up the mountain today, Miss?"
"Not today." Shen Qinglan said, "In a while, I need to head to town."
