Chapter 141: Seek advantages and avoid disadvantages
Ling Fei's eyes fell quietly on his fingers, the white jade wine cup was crystal clear under the candle flame, he looked fixedly, but his eyes seemed to have no focus, in an instant, the white jade-like luster suddenly turned into a beautiful face, his eyes were like water, and his quiet gaze seemed to be looking at him, as if he didn't put him in his eyes, just like that of a calm and self-contained expression that everything was not in his heart...... He was stunned for a moment!
When he came back to his senses, Mu Qing said something again, he only heard a few words, his fingers pressed slightly, and the phantom in front of him turned into a real white jade wine cup, he put down the wine cup and only heard Mu Qing say: "...... If you can say anything, you might as well tell me, let's see if there is any other way?"
"I have sent a secret letter to Your Majesty, and I should receive a reply in less than two days, and I will have my own charter at that time. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Ling Fei said lightly, "I really didn't think about it before. ”
Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "I knew that you weren't that kind of person, you guy, you didn't say it earlier!"
Ling Fei squinted at him: "I had to say it earlier, wouldn't I have heard your heartfelt feelings?"
Mu Qing's cheeks turned red, and he was silent.
Ling Fei looked at it, and somehow felt a little uncomfortable, so he glanced at him: "Didn't you say drinking?"
Although Mu Qing was a little embarrassed by Ling Fei's words, he was straightforward and said that he would treat Ling Fei as a brother, so he really thought like this in his heart, and when he saw that Ling Fei was different from him, he quickly put aside his unease, poured wine for Ling Fei very happily, and did it first as a respect.
After drinking it, he poured another one, and he smiled very happily: "Ling Fei, do you know? I have lived so long, today is the happiest day." ”
Ling Fei let out an "oh", but was a little surprised: "Why?"
"I have achieved nothing for so many years, and sometimes I am aggrieved, but I don't know what I am aggrieved. Mu Qing said aggrieved in his mouth, but a pair of peach blossom eyes were shocked at this time, and his handsome face was also smiling, "But now I have figured it out." ”
"Tell me about it. "Regarding the affairs of the Great General's Mansion, although Ling Fei is not clear about everything, since he came to Yunzhou last year, he has almost understood everything, and he is not surprised by what Mu Qing said.
"People should live according to their own hearts, no matter how hard and difficult, no matter whether they are afraid or not, they should persevere. Mu Qing's expression was very serious, "In the end, it may or may not be successful, but as long as it is what you want to do in your heart, you will not regret the result." ”
Ling Fei didn't care, in his opinion, he had already understood this truth, and he had always done so, Mu Qing said it so seriously, which made him feel funny.
However, he didn't really laugh, after all, Mu Qing's demeanor was too solemn.
"That's a good point. Ling Fei raised his glass to greet him.
Mu Qing's smile became more and more bright, and he neatly touched a glass with Ling Fei and drank it all in one gulp.
The two didn't say much, they drank several glasses in a row, the atmosphere became more and more harmonious, and Mu Qing's interest became more and more high.
Ling Fei looked a little absent-minded, looking at Mu Qing's eyes that were shining more and more as he drank, there was a sentence in his mouth that he wanted to ask several times, but in the end he still didn't ask.
Unconsciously, the two of them served a few more pots of wine, knowing that the drunkenness hit in the end, and in his confusion, he vaguely heard Mu Qing's laughter: "...... Drunk like this...... To the room ......"
He was still a little unconvinced in his heart at that time, he hadn't even drunk Mu Qing when he drank!

Since going out on May 19, Shen Nishang has not gone out again, carrying Mrs. Si behind her back and leading a group of maids to plan privately.
Shen Muheng, the second young master of the Shen family, originally planned to set off for the second business route in mid-May, but because the eldest lady of the Shen family, Shen Rutong, and her uncle's family affairs were settled, so it was postponed for a few days.
Before the rest of the Shen Mansion noticed, the three rites of Nacai, Mingming, and Najib had been quietly completed, and the request period that should have been separated from Nazheng for a period of time was also completed on the same day as Nazheng.
Shen Rutong's acceptance ceremony, which is also the engagement gift of the six ceremonies, is scheduled to be held on May 21.
In addition to the one room in the big room, the big lady did not know that the other two rooms would participate.
Mrs. Si naturally got the news, and she smiled meaningfully: "This Ma Shiwen, she is really getting more and more cautious." Her misfortune daughter is married, I can't beat the gong and drum yet, how can it hurt her, she also thinks of me too stingy!"
Shen Nishang didn't understand a little, but she didn't do much to her when she thought about it, Mrs. Si didn't continue, and she didn't ask much.
It wasn't until the evening of the same day that Shen Qiulian came that she figured it out.
It turned out that this family affair seemed to be a kiss, but in fact, both parties were not satisfied, Shen Rutong was not able to get stuck with her third cousin, and his third cousin was also favored at home as the youngest son, Shen Rutong was not good-looking, and he also felt very aggrieved. It was because of the dissatisfaction of these two ends that the two families discussed for a long time.
In the end, the eldest lady promised that her sister-in-law would give 15,000 taels of dowry silver in addition to the marriage shop, Zhuangzi, and her sister-in-law heard this, so she went back and explained her son.
On Shen Rutong's side, the eldest lady also made another promise in private.
"Do you know what my mother promised with my eldest sister?" Shen Qiulian pulled Shen Nishang and asked in a low voice.
"What did you promise?" asked Shen Nishang as she spoke.
Shen Qiulian laughed sarcastically and was a little jealous: "She is the eldest brother and the second brother, and said that no matter who is in charge of the house in the future, her share of the silver will be recognized by the eldest sister with thirty and a half dividends!"
Shen Nishang was stunned: "The eldest lady has a stake in the family business?"
"Not really. Shen Qiulian pouted, "I heard that when she got married, there was a problem with the family's business for a while, and she invested all the dowry money. Later, when the principal was returned, she only took the principal back, and the other dividends were in the account, and her father also wrote an equity certificate to her. Later, her mother's family was defeated, and she also took some of it, but there should be a lot left. Over the years, this amount of money is not a small amount. These shops are now in the hands of my father and eldest brother, and the last time the second brother went to the business road, she threw the silver into it again, and this time she didn't get back the silver, and even the principal and interest were handed over to the second brother in the upside-down. ”
Shen Nishang was really a little surprised.
If she remembers correctly, she seems to have heard that the eldest lady married in and had a dowry of eight thousand taels of silver.
In this way, the eldest lady's net worth is not small, and there may still be a distance from Mrs. Si, but it is not as bad as she originally thought, at least thirty or forty thousand taels, it will not be less.
However, there are some problems with Mrs. Si's approach.
Shen Nishang didn't think that Shen Chongshan would agree to marry Shen Rutong with 15,000 cash silver, so I am afraid that half of this is only added by the eldest lady herself. If it were a few months ago, I am afraid that Shen Chongshan would not even take half of it, but now that the second young master is angry, the eldest lady has face, Shen Chongshan is in a good mood, and with the eyes of the eldest lady, it may be possible to move Shen Chongshan to take a number of less than 10,000.
In other words, at least five thousand taels, or even more, were taken out by the eldest lady from her private room.
Shen Siyan and Shen Muheng didn't know how they felt about this money, but the eldest lady actually wanted to give Shen Rutong one-third of the dividends of the private property managed under the names of her two sons...... Shen Nishang didn't think that the two brothers would have no complaints.
Maybe in some people's homes, the family is harmonious, and the brother and sister have a good relationship, so it is still possible to deal with it in this way. But Shen Nishang has been a member of the Shen family for so long, and she really hasn't seen how much brotherhood there is between Shen Rutong and her two brothers.
Don't say that Shen Rutong is between Shen Siyan and Shen Muheng, and at the moment, I am afraid that it is also in deep trouble in private, but it is not on the surface.
Shen Nishang thought that the eldest lady was taking it for granted.
"Your mother is a mother's heart. Shen Nishang smiled and didn't make too many comments.
Shen Qiulian smiled sarcastically: "Everyone says that she can be a person, but I think she is confused." ”
Maybe it was this incident that stimulated Shen Qiulian too much, she was depressed in the upper room for a long time, although she heard the exact news, but even the maids around her didn't dare to say more, and when she arrived at Shen Nisheng, she didn't have the meaning to hide the resentment in her heart.
began to speak, and called the eldest lady "mother", and after this, he directly used an irrelevant sidestander's tone.
Shen Nishang didn't speak, and she didn't show any surprise or a look that she shouldn't have.
The more Shen Qiulian spoke, the more "true feelings were revealed", she pulled the silk handkerchief in her hand, and after venting her breath on this dead object, her emotions seemed to be controlled a little, but her tone was still disdainful: "She feels that she has a bowl of water on her own, but she doesn't want to think about what her two sons think in their hearts! The second brother is okay, he is valued by his father right now, and he has the ability to go on a trip to get the silver, maybe he doesn't care about her partiality, but the eldest brother has long felt that his father is partial to the second brother, and he is afraid that the second brother will fish out the Shen family, and she will be so biased again- I think our Shen family is only afraid that it won't be quiet for long!"
Shen Nishang had to admit that although Shen Qiulian said that she had a lot of eyes and was selfish, as a concubine who grew up watching people's eyes, she did have her smart side.
She also didn't understand.
Shen Chongshan can't see these possible contradictions and problems that are already obvious, and they are not anything else, but he is as thoughtful as a big lady, how can he turn a blind eye?
Even her, Mrs. Si, and even Shen Qiulian could see it.
She was puzzled, so she asked.
Shen Qiulian's answer was to the point: "It's not that she didn't see it, but her sons were born to her, and in the heart of the mother, the sons with leprosy are all good by themselves, not to mention that the eldest brother and the second brother are not bad." She is only afraid that there are some problems between her brothers, and she is not afraid of it, and there will be no major events anyway. If you look at her disposal this time, you will know that my mother, people pay attention to a bowl of water, and even the daughters have to share it with their sons, let alone two sons. Our father is not very old, and it is not time to say who is in charge, she can't say that she has an idea in her heart, but she feels that it is not the time to say it. Anyway, no matter which one is in charge, she is afraid that she will not lose the other one. She said, sneering, "but she knows her own heart, but she doesn't know the heart of her two sons." Those two are afraid that they all want to be the head of the Shen family!"
This is what you think is fair, and what others think is unfair.
You think you have no selfishness, but others think that your selfishness is given to the other party.
At the end of the day, what you want to give is not what the other person wants.
Shen Nishang smiled dumbly and shook her head in her heart.
"I don't say this because I'm jealous, it's not that I'm unwilling. Seeing the smile on the corner of Shen Nisheng's mouth, Shen Qiulian hurriedly explained, "What is my identity, I know it in my own heart, and I haven't thought about those ones." I am, I am ......"
Shen Nishang pursed her lips and asked with a smile: "What is it?"
Shen Qiulian's face turned red: "I'm afraid that the eldest brother and the second brother will be unhappy, if my mother is annoyed, she is not in the mood to take care of the affairs of this house." ”
"It's your family, right?" Shen Nishang smiled slightly.
Shen Qiulian was stunned, but she still didn't dodge: "I'm different from you, you are a pension girl, and Mrs. Si will naturally be thoughtful for you." But I still have to rely on others. I don't want to be rich and rich, as long as my family is passable, my character is better, and there are no elders in my family, I will be satisfied. ”
Speaking of the back, Shen Qiulian became generous and calm.
Hearing her words, Shen Nishang looked at her a little differently: "Do you really think so?"
"yes. Shen Qiulian said calmly, "I know my own business." I don't look like you, but I'm not ugly either. Even if the background is a little worse, there must not be much dowry. The threshold is high, I can't stand it, and no one will look down on it in the future, it's better to find a threshold, as long as the people are good, the family is easy to get along with, and I'm not stupider than others, can I still live a bad life?"
Shen Nishang nodded with a smile, and couldn't help but show three points of appreciation in her eyes: "I didn't expect you to say this." ”
"As the saying goes, poor mountains and bad waters produce Diao people - I know that I couldn't live with my third sister before, and some of my thoughts were not used properly, but at that time, I was also Diao Min in the 'poor mountains and bad waters'," Shen Qiulian laughed at herself, "I can't stand the poverty myself, and I can only make crooked tricks under poor skills." But who wants to be bald with hair, I don't mean to be a bald person, I've been in the house for so many years, I've been a little cautious, but I haven't really hurt anyone. ”
"Well, needless to say. Shen Nishang smiled and shook her head, "Since it's over, there's no need to mention it." ”
The two talked for a while, and Shen Qiulian left in the night.
The three maids cleaned up the house, and Yuchun endured it a few times and couldn't hold back: "Miss, are you okay with the second miss?"
Shen Nishang sat at the round table and read a book, her eyes did not leave: "What's wrong?"
Yuchun put down the tea set in his hand and came over: "What does the slave mean, does the young lady believe in the second young lady?"
Shen Nishang put down the book and seemed to be considering how to answer this question: "What she said is true, I believe that what she said today is from the bottom of her heart, but she is too profit-seeking and avoids disadvantages, but it is difficult to deal with each other." ”
Yuchun was thoughtful.
