When Qin Ke heard this, his complexion changed, and he said angrily: "What a nephew and daughter-in-law who step on the high and praise the low, she is really very capable!" ”

When Shen Man got married, the Qianxian Mansion was just a girl of her prime age, and the family was no longer at its peak. In order to support the scene, make a face for the princess, and not let the king look down on the wife that the Ming media is marrying, Shen Man's elders did not hesitate to use half of the family property to pile up ten miles of red makeup. When Shen Man went into exile with the king, the sage issued an order to transport all these dowries to the county mansion, whether it was objects or domestic servants, all of them were temporarily in the hands of Shen Man's only nephew, Shen Huai.

Since it is temporarily managed, it means that these dowries are Shen Man's private property, and they can only be at her disposal, and no one is allowed to act rashly, not even Qin Ke.

Qin Ke is not a fool, he naturally knows that Shen Huai is not very capable, but he is not the kind of person who is so weak and incompetent that he is led by his wife. If it's just some money, Shen Huai will make up for it himself, why do you need to write a letter and hurt the feelings of your aunt and nephew? Since he wrote the letter clearly, it means that Shen Man's dowry that was moved was more than just money, and there was no way to make up for it.

Seeing that Qin Ke was displeased, Shen Man wiped away his tears, but comforted him: "My nephew and daughter-in-law Yu is not a bad person, but she is a little competitive. She is the eldest daughter in the family, and she is the best married, she has always been used to acting as a façade in front of her sisters, but now her life is not as good as a year, it is difficult to grit her teeth and get through, but it is her eldest niece who is out of the cabinet. In order to support her face, she took a pair of my jewelry to add makeup, although she was confused, she was ......"

Qin Ke still knows about the affairs of the Qianxian Mansion - Shen Huai is the only son in the family, and the female elders are fed up with life and death, so they take him very seriously, and so does Shen Man. In Shen Huai's family affairs, several women discussed for a long time, and finally did not choose from any high-ranking eunuchs, but chose Yu Shi, the eldest granddaughter of Yu Feng, the captain of the Beiya Military Academy.

Yu's family background, Mo said that it is not enough to see in Chang'an, which is full of powerful people, even in wealthier places, she is not top-notch, her appearance can only be regarded as delicate, and her knowledge and actions are not outstanding, there is only one strength, that is, there are many children in the family, and people are prosperous, just the cousins who are skilled in bows and horses can pull up a whole team. As for the Yu family, they also lived up to the expectations of the Shen family, married into the Qiaoxian Mansion, hugged the two for three years, and added a daughter after two years. Shen Man's aunt, Shen Huai's grandmother, had a smile on her face when she passed away.

After the death of Duke Chen and his children and grandchildren, the Shen family, who were orphans and widows, and who were filial piety, did not get involved in the social circle much. No matter how strong a family is, there will be no successor for more than ten years, and the decline has become inevitable. If it weren't for the saint's favor of the old minister, so that there would be a princess in the county mansion, this family would have been forgotten to the corner of the unknown. When Qin Ke was exiled, the county government ......

There has never been a shortage of icing on the cake in this world, and there is no shortage of people who have fallen into the well.

Thinking of this, Qin Ke sighed lightly and said gloomily: "Manniang, it's all me-"

"It's none of Aya's business."

Qin Ke and Shen Man looked at their daughter in surprise, and saw Qin Wan's little face flushed, and said angrily: "If that person is not A-Niang's nephew-in-law, if A-Niang is not A-Aya's mother-in-law, why is she the most decent among relatives?" first took the identities of Aya and A-Niang to make a face, and now he is holding A-Niang's dowry to make a face, what is the last resort of this kind of person? "Livelihood is getting more and more difficult, and everyone can understand if you move some money a little. In order to satisfy his vanity, he actually used Shen Man's jewelry to add makeup to his niece, and he was not afraid of breaking the other party's blessings!

After all, over the years, if Shen Huai hadn't been busy with everything, taking the right time to secretly send them things, running around for their return to Beijing, and making some connections, their lives might not have been as easy as they are today. But when Qin Wan said this today, not to mention Qin Ke, even Shen Man also came back to his senses - their two in-laws were originally grasshoppers on a rope, one was in trouble, and the other might not be better. If anyone in the world is most looking forward to returning to Beijing on behalf of the king, in addition to their family of three, it should be Shen Huai. Although emotional matters involve interests, it is inevitable that they will change their flavor and appear cold and cold, but this is a real fact.

Being woken up by his daughter like this, Shen Man's heart became more and more uncomfortable, only to feel chest tightness and shortness of breath, and his face turned several points whiter. She subconsciously clutched her stomach, and cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Qin Wan thought that he had said the wrong thing, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and looked straight at his mother, his eyes were already red.

When the doctor came in a hurry, Qin Wan pulled his father's sleeve and asked timidly, "Aya, Ah Niang, she-"

"It's okay, it's okay, it's going to be okay." Qin Ke touched his daughter's sideburns, and said warmly, "Manniang was born because of her mother's family, and it has nothing to do with Bao'er, but ......"

Qin Ke hesitated for a moment, and Fang replied softly: "In this world, there are some things, you have to learn to pretend to be stupid, and some words, even if they are true, can't be said directly, understand?" ”

"Yes, Bao'er understands."

"Also, don't make A-Niang angry." Qin Ke hugged his daughter and said softly, "Your aunt and her...... It's really not easy. ”

"If you marry someone in the future, you must marry someone who likes you, not what you like."

"If life is not going well, come back to Aye, and Aya will support you."

"Three from four virtues, that's for men, you have royal blood, and the courtesy of the monarch and the minister should be put at the forefront. If someone makes things difficult for you, you fight back fiercely. If anyone looks down on you, you ......"

Speaking of this, Qin Ke shook his head lightly and denied his words: "Look at what I said, Bao'er is the smartest, most beautiful, and the cutest, and everyone will like you." ”

Qin Wan nodded vigorously and said loudly, "Definitely!" ”

July and Cheng Fang stood in the distance, quietly watching this scene, the former couldn't stop wiping his tears, and the latter was a strong man, his eyes were red.

The dignified eldest son was so downtrodden, obviously worried about his wife's health and the health of the child, and worried, but he could only tell his young daughter.

Shen Huai didn't know that his aunt Shen Man was pregnant, so he naturally couldn't imagine that a letter of apology he wrote in desperation would cause such a big harm to Shen Man. He was sitting impatiently in the back room, listening to his wife cry with snot and tears: "Our family has no power or power, and we can't even make ends meet with a shop, although the land in the grange is a little profitable." But the tripod of the pre-Qin dynasty, the jade of the Han Dynasty, and the calligraphy and painting of the previous dynasty are often thousands of times, but you send them out without blinking your eyes. There are also those charming little ladies, who play like foxes, you buy one or twenty, spend a lot of money to buy, train, and give away...... For my aunt, most of the public school consumption was consumed, and I was left with a few pieces of jewelry that could be used as a façade, and the clothes were always half new, just a few seven or eight percent new, and I wore them all over when I went out as a guest. The children can only make a few sets of new clothes all year round, even the Mu family's face-wrenching girl is not as good, the eldest brother and the second brother have reached the age of kissing, the eldest lady is almost ten years old, and there are a few small ones below, if you don't make some face, what can our family do! ”

This nonsense is messing around, and it can mix with others, but it can't mix with Shen Huai, I saw that this general, who inherited the position of county prince in infancy, turned red and angry: "Our family's shop has long been unable to make ends meet, if it weren't for the eyes of the king and aunt, would you still be able to make a profit for so many years?" When my aunt was in Chang'an, how much did she help us? I don't buy enough of the precious jewelry and clothes on your body, but my aunt gives you a lot. Your family wants to seek a vacancy, I don't have such a big face, can I say that the officials of the Ministry of Officials, if it weren't for the face of the king, there are so many people waiting for the Northern Yajun to be vacant, where will it be the turn of the family? Privately take your aunt's jewelry to make your niece's face, you are not ashamed, but I can't raise my head. ”

Yu couldn't talk about her husband, so she cried with a handkerchief.

She was just a moment of vanity and hot-headedness, so she did such a stupid thing, and she regretted it afterwards! Unexpectedly, it's been a few months, and her husband still refuses to forgive her, she obviously regrets it!

After all, they have been married for many years, and seeing Yu's crying like this, Shen Huai couldn't bear it, but he still hardened his heart and slammed the door.

Shen Huai was really panicked when his wife did such a shameless thing - he knew that his family's livelihood was difficult, and he had cut a lot of expenses, if there were no big expenses, he could barely maintain decency with the money exchanged by courtesy. Rao is so, watching the children grow up day by day, they still have to worry about the dowry and dowry. Even if the other party can't agree immediately, it's good to be able to say a word when it's critical. Isn't that overstretched?

Because of this, Shen Huai turned a blind eye to his wife's secret move of Shen Man's Grange, but secretly wrote down all these deficits and vowed to return them to his aunt in the future. Who would have thought that his wife would be so bold as to take out her aunt's jewelry? Could it be that he still had to chase down the husband's house of Yu's eldest niece to ask for this pair of jewelry, saying that this was the dowry of the princess on behalf of the princess, and it was quietly appropriated by his wife?

There's no way not to tell Aunt Sù about this, but ...... When my aunt finds out, what will she think?

Shen Huai was depressed in his heart, and the more he thought about it, the more irritable he became, and his whole person was wilted, and he couldn't lift his spirits at all. He didn't want to stay at home, so he simply went out, came to the lively West Market, and walked along the long street.

"Brother Boqing?" A young man in a brown cloth robe walked over and asked a little strangely, "Why are you here?" ”

Seeing the visitor, Shen Huaiqiang cheered up and politely greeted: "Praise, it's you!" I have nothing to do, just walk around, but you, why did you come to the West Market? ”
