Mei Xueyan ran into Hongzhi in the corridor back to Xiangzhu Courtyard, and she and Shen Ziwen were heading to Shen's courtyard. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Hong Zhi also saw Mei Xueyan, and instead of dodging, she stepped forward with a smile.

"Yan Niang."

Hongzhi is wearing a light red gown, wearing a red jade vermilion, she is like her name, she likes red, preferably red, although Hongzhi used to be a maid, although she was arrogant, but now she has restrained a lot, but she looks much more peaceful and noble, standing with Shen Ziwen, it is a good match at first glance.

"Miss Hongzhi, Shen Gongzi, you ......"

Mei Xueyan saw that they were very close, and they should be together.

"Yes, Ziwen and I have already married, and now Shen Gongzi is my husband." Hongzhi bowed her head a little shyly, "I heard that you and the third master have also reconciled?" ā€

"Hmm."

"That's a great way to congratulate."

Hongzhi came closer and said affectionately: "Yanniang, I used to be irritable, if you do anything to hurt you, don't go to your heart again." ā€

"No, congratulations to you and Shen Gongzi."

Hong Zhi chuckled lightly and said, "Actually, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have married Ziwen...... You see, people's lives are really not true, in fact, it has long been determined, you and I were the most inconspicuous in the Lin Mansion, I am not afraid of your jokes when I say it, I used to have the intention of marrying the master, but you walked out of the Lin Mansion with one mind, but now it is the other way around, you married the third master, and I went out of the Lin Mansion. ā€

"Things are impermanent, but it's good, you two seem to be in love."

"Thank you." Hongzhi covered her mouth and smiled, "I still have to go to say goodbye to the young lady, so I won't gossip." ā€

"Okay, let's go."

Hong Zhi nodded and took Shen Ziwen's arm and went in, Shen Ziwen took good care of Hong Zhi, and followed her steps all the way, not walking fast.

"What? Seeing Mei Xueyan, you can't walk? ā€

"Say what?" Shen Ziwen feigned anger.

Hongzhi smiled: "I'm joking with you, I see that you are distracted." ā€

"I'm thinking, this Mei Xueyan is not comparable to me, she has actually become the new champion, I still can't believe it."

"Everyone has their own life, there are some things you are destined not to get, and some are for you to throw away, go faster, I want to hurry up and ask An to go back."

Hongzhi said lightly, a little meaningful.

"Don't worry, you're pregnant, don't bump it."

Hong Zhi turned a deaf ear to Shen Ziwen's concern, and only said: "It's only been two months, it's still very early......

After speaking, Hong Zhi looked around at the Lin Mansion and Shen Ziwen beside her, and a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes.

When she went in to say goodbye, Shen was furious, Lin Rongchang was not there, so she vented to her subordinates, the maid knelt on the ground and cried, and Lin Jiabao was also scared and cried by Shen's fierceness.

"Uncle, why are you so angry? Who messed with you? ā€

Hong Zhi is now also following Shen Ziwen to call her aunt.

"This man is frizzy and has dropped one of my clothes on the ground!"

Shen sat breathlessly, and when he heard Lin Jiabao's cry, he became even more irritable.

"Uncle and aunt cherish a piece of clothing, it doesn't matter if you break the maid, don't be angry with your body, it's better to go and wash it for you now."

It's not that there are no girls in the Shen family's yard, how can they still go to call Hongzhi?

"Well, it's not exactly the maid's business." Shen Shi took Hongzhi's hand and said, "It's still comfortable for you and me to use." ā€

Hong Zhi smiled and didn't speak, what she thought in her heart, but no one knew.

"Come, Cui Ping, you take the little master outside to play for a while, always cry in the house, don't cry hoarsely."

Hongzhi pulled up the kneeling girl and relieved them of the siege, and the room was quieter.

"Uncle, what's going on?" Hongzhi asked in a whisper.

Shen sighed and said, "It's still Lin Rongchang's loser!" Angry with me, I hid the silver ticket in the box and locked it with a lock, but he found it, broke the lock with a hammer, and walked away with the silver ticket! ā€

"Huh? This is the silver of the second master and his aunt, why is one locked and the other stolen? Hongzhi asked with her mouth slightly open in surprise.

Shen said hatefully: "It's not that he went to gamble again!" After the separation, although our second room also divided a lot of family business, but he didn't take care of it, the business was worse day by day, and some were even losing money! He was good, he didn't care about anything, he was a hands-off shopkeeper, and later I learned that he actually messed around in the gambling house all day long! ā€

"I don't allow him to take the family's money out again, he said that he owes a debt outside, and if he doesn't pay it back, he will be broken his hands and feet, he is the second master of the Lin Mansion, who dares to break his hands and feet? You have to stick the money on the outside! ā€

Shen said bitterly, after the separation, she didn't have a few days to live in peace.

Although the second room received a lot of private silver, and there was no need to live by looking at Lu's face from now on, Lin Rongchang did not make money, but lost money in the gambling house, even no matter how big the family business was, it couldn't hold up, not to mention that there was not much cash in the second room, and the Shen family could only lock it in the box, and it was stolen by Lin Rongchang.

"It's hard to prevent thieves! I don't think I can live this day, I think he will lose his house sooner or later! ā€

The Shen family has the urge to go through their own ways, but she doesn't have the courage, who will she find if she leaves? Her mother's family is an ordinary family, and the Shen family marrying into the Lin Mansion is considered a high climb, and her mother's family will not raise her as an old girl in vain.

Moreover, she is also reluctant to take care of the family business she just shared, as long as she takes care of it well, she can't finish it in two lifetimes, and the only pillar of the family likes gambling money at this time, everyone knows that gambling money is not good, but who can control him?

Shen calculated, the family's cash silver is only two thousand taels left, or she hid in Tibet to keep it, other land deeds and house deeds or something, it is a big pit, after falling into their hands, they have not made a few silver, Shen later asked, it turned out that Lin Rongchang had taken all the money from the cabinet, and there was no capital to operate in the shop, how could he make money? It's almost a day to lose.

Hongzhi asked anxiously, "That...... What about the second master? Where have you gone now? ā€

"He didn't dare to go home for the past two days! Maybe it's hidden in a gambling house! Shen said viciously.

"Or, why don't you let Ziwen go and get the second master back?" Hong Zhi came up with an idea and said.

Shen covered his forehead and said: "It's useless, even the cow can't be pulled back, and the group of black-hearted ghosts in the gambling house are still hiding for him, so it's useless to look for it?" Who can see others? ā€

"Then it's not okay to go on like this, why don't you tell Madame?"

"Nope."

Shen gritted his teeth and said, "We have already separated the family, and we can't let her interfere with our private property anymore." ā€

Hong Zhi talked to the Shen family, but there was no good way, and in the end, it was not too early, so she left the Lin Mansion and went back with Shen Ziwen, looking at the Shen family's courtyard when she went back, with a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
