Chapter Ninety-Six

Leaving the old lady's house, Li Shi held Wang Chan and said with a smile: "This time, my mother suddenly handed over the affairs of the Shen Mansion to me, didn't you secretly help me?" ”

Wang Chan smiled, "Cousin, I said that as long as I am in the Shen Mansion, I will definitely help you, you say, if I don't help you, who else will I help?" Cousin, I'll help you this time, maybe I'll ask you to help me next time. ”

Li covered his mouth and smiled proudly, gently squeezed Wang Chan, and even changed his title when he laughed: "Cousin, how do you want me to help you, you just have to say." ”

The Li family thought that if Wang Chan was a concubine for Shen Pingcheng, it would not hurt her, but in the Shen Mansion, she had another helper.

She thought for a moment: "I just don't know what my cousin can do." ”

"You go to Jinlin Courtyard now, since your aunt has asked you to take care of the internal affairs of the Shen Mansion, you naturally have to get the account books and keys with her." Wang Chan held down the Li family and commanded in a low voice.

Li nodded thoughtfully: "Do you want to say something more?" ”

"Needless to say, she knows it in her heart."

Li listened to Wang Chan's words, and grinned knowingly on his red lips.

She swung the hem of her bright blue cloud silk dress, and the pair of white jade earrings swaying under her ears darkened her yellowish complexion.

She took three steps and two steps, followed by a group of maids, and walked out of Fuhua Courtyard.

When she arrived at Jinlin Courtyard, Zhao and Shen Lan were talking in the east, but after a while, Zhao came out to greet her, and it was very strange for Li to come over, although Zhao was puzzled, he still said: "Fourth brother and sister, come into the house and sit." ”

"I won't sit down." Li Shijiao smiled and waved her hand: "Second sister-in-law, I came here this time to pick up something, take it and leave, Fang Cainiang told me." said that from tomorrow, the affairs of the Shen Mansion will be taken care of by me, and I am here to get the account books and keys. ”

"This ......" Zhao glanced at Li in a panic, what was going on? Could it be that the old lady is warning her? She smiled stiffly, turned her head and said, "Mama Fang, go and fetch something." ”

Mama Fang lowered her eyes in annoyance, so she had to take it.

As Lee said. She got something. Without staying for a moment, he turned around and left without hesitation.

"Madam, is this what you are doing today?" Zhao's face was not right this morning. Now that the Li family said that the internal affairs of the Shen Mansion were taken care of by her, Mama Fang should have linked these two things together, and she helped the Zhao family: "Madam, you have never loved these, so why should you be sad about this." What's more, in this way. You've got time to spend with the girl and the hustle and bustle again. ”

Zhao nodded stiffly: "Yes, yes, I should be happy." She staggered back to the east time, "Lan'er! She hugged Shen Lan tightly in her arms. It was as if the wax table had been knocked over in her heart, burning her chest.

"Mother?" Shen Lan shouted softly, and she raised her eyes to look at Mama Fang.

Mama Fang spread her hands helplessly.

Another place. Shen Rong came out of the jade study, and she thought about it for a long time in the jade study. Knowing that Wang Chan has already been concerned about her entering the Shen Mansion, it is inevitable that she will be successful, and with the old lady here, it is not an exaggeration for her to think so.

She thought about it again and again, then turned her head and ordered: "Tomorrow I will go to my grandmother's side, and you will stay in the mansion to see what is happening in the mansion." ”

"You just relax and go, no matter how bad it is, the slave maid over there in Fuhua Courtyard will also watch, if there is any movement in the house, the slave maid will immediately go to Sixi Street to report the news." Ruyi is busy, these days, she has more or less seen some things, although the girl doesn't say it, she understands that the girl doesn't sleep well all day these days, maybe when she gets to Mrs. Zhao's side, she can relax and relax.

Shen Rong nodded, Wang Chan had already deceived her mother's head, what should she do?

Shen Pingcheng's attitude was unclear, but Shen Rong saw it clearly, and he couldn't pay attention to this matter at all.

The old lady can easily take down Shen Pingcheng with both soft and hard skills.

Although her mother is weak, her temperament is stubborn, otherwise she would not have married Shen Pingcheng, who had not yet achieved something.

But she was stubborn and only blindly for Shen Pingcheng, and Shen Rong shuddered when she thought of the tragic incident that happened to her mother in her previous life.

Back at Jinlin Temple, it's already a meal.

Shen Lan and Shen Rong are still girls out of the pavilion in the end, even if Shen Pingcheng really has the heart to match Shen Lan and Gu Xingyan, he will not let them eat with Gu Xingyan, and Gu Xingzhi's two little brothers eat at the same table.

So when it was noon, Zhao asked the two of them to go back to the inner courtyard.

"Today, the fourth aunt went to Jinlin Courtyard and took away the account books and keys of the Shen Mansion with her mother, and after her mother asked Mama Fang to take those to the fourth aunt, her face has not been very good, I don't know if it's because of this, hugging me is crying." Shen Lan chattered into Shen Rong's house: "It's just that my mother doesn't seem to be sad about this matter." ”

As soon as the Zhao family cried today, Shen Lan was dumbfounded, and he didn't know how to coax him, so he had to be hugged by the Zhao family.

Shen Rong's eyebrows moved almost invisibly: "In the future, the fourth aunt will take care of the middle feed of the house?" ”

Even if the old lady wants to admit Wang Chan into the Shen family, at this time, she will never take the power of her mother's relatives, unless her mother makes the old lady unhappy.

The mother has a soft personality, does not speak aggressively, and respects the old lady in her heart, so she will not provoke the old lady in her words, and it is even more impossible in her behavior.

Unless someone is playing with the old lady.

Shen Rong made up his mind in his heart: "Sister, I got up early today to go to Fuhua Courtyard and got a piece of news, saying that my grandmother intended to give Aunt Chan to my father and give my father a concubine. ”

Shen Lan opened her mouth in a daze, her heart was startled by Shen Rong's words, she panicked, calmed down, and whispered in a low voice: "This... How is it possible, although Aunt Chan is older, she is also the daughter of a big family, how can she be willing to stoop to be a concubine. ”

Yes, how could Wang Chan be willing to stoop to be a concubine.

In the previous life, she was negligent about this, so she was carelessly used by Wang Chan, she gently pulled Shen Lan to sit on the collapsed chair covered with soft red Xiang, and nodded heavily, it should be for Shen Lan to know, "I thought the same way, but then I thought it was not strange, sister, do you know why she has not married for a long time." ”

"I've heard a little about this, she's for her father." Shen Lan said that, exclaimed, and suddenly realized: "You mean ......?"

"Yes, since Aunt Chan can wait for her father for so many years, what does it matter if she can marry her father, even if she is a concubine. Besides, she's the age. To marry. can only be a continuation for others, although the continuation is the main room, but I don't know how the in-laws are. But the Shen family is different, you can see that her grandmother treats her very well, even if she becomes an aunt, she will not suffer a loss. ”

Shen Rong sighed: "My mother must have known about this matter." That's why I'm so sad, sister. Although the mother's temperament is gentle and easy to talk, who wants to serve a husband together. ”

Shen Lan looked surprised and said in surprise, "Listen to what you mean." Grandmother is recognized. Shen Lan held Shen Rong's hand embarrassedly, and she shook her head helplessly: "Ah Rong, you just went back to Shen Mansion." I probably don't know, what my grandmother said. There has never been room for retraction, and since she decided to help her father take Aunt Chan, there is probably no room for maneuver in this matter. ”

Shen Lan has been in the Shen Mansion for so many years, and has been taught by the Shen Mansion that he will only obey and will not resist.

She didn't even think about resisting, and when she heard that it was the old lady, she immediately lowered her face.

"Tomorrow, let's accompany my mother to my grandmother's first, we can't just look at it like this." Shen Rong said loudly.

After noon, Gu Xingyan and Gu Xingzhi left.

Zhao was only waiting for the two of them to leave, her eyes fell on the hemp blue pattern placket on Shen Pingcheng's body, and she sent the maid in the house, and her voice was soft: "Pingcheng, do you know what my mother told me today?" ”

Shen Pingcheng was silent for a few seconds, "Huaiqiu, mother, she ......"

Zhao laughed sadly, looking up at the gentle and jade-like face: "It seems that you know, then do you know, what did Sister Chan tell me again?" ”

"What did she say to you?" He asked.

Zhao didn't know what was wrong with her, probably because a few hours had passed, and she had no strength to yell at Shen Pingcheng and question, she just spoke softly, as if she was telling a story that had nothing to do with her, but her eyes were moist; "She took me to the old courtyard behind the Fuhua Temple, showed me the hairpin you gave her, and told me the story of you and her childhood."

"Huaiqiu." Shen Pingcheng hurriedly covered Zhao's hand with his thick big hand: "Young and frivolous, who hasn't said a few words of nonsense, Huaiqiu, you don't have to take those words of hers to heart." ”

"Young and frivolous?" Zhao suddenly smiled: "Then the words you made when you married me were also nonsense when you were young and frivolous, I don't need to take it to heart." ”

Zhao looked at Shen Pingcheng with teary eyes, she sat on the soft couch with no strength in her whole body, crying and laughing, and looked at Shen Pingcheng carefully: "Do you really want to take her as a concubine?" ”

Shen Pingcheng stood up straight, looked down at her, paused for a moment, and said first: "Then I said yes?" ”

When Zhao heard this, all the expressions on her face stopped, she thought about all the answers that Shen Pingcheng might say, but she didn't expect that he would be so simple and simple, "Then I said yes?" ”

Her eyes widened, her eyes were bloodshot, she looked up at Shen Pingcheng dryly, and she couldn't say a word in a dry voice, "You ......"

Her chest was dull, and her tears couldn't stop like a broken thread, "Good, good! Good! Zhao replied three times in a row, "You don't even want to coax." ”

Shen Pingcheng supported Zhao for a while, and said kind words: "Huaiqiu, this is what I owe her, I did have a marriage with her at the beginning, even if I married you, I didn't dare to inform my mother, and I didn't dare to send my mother back when I got married to you." I gave up my engagement with her for your sake, and you still don't believe me? If I had her in my heart, I wouldn't have had to go to great lengths to marry you in the first place. ”

Shen Pingcheng said this, I have to say, it is very reasonable, Zhao Shi heard this, and immediately asked: "Then you now?" ”

"Mother promised my aunt to include her in the Shen Mansion, when you and I got married, my mother has always been obsessed, she now wants me to accept Wang Chan, what do you say I should do?" Shen Pingcheng hugged Zhao Huaiqiu tightly into his arms, he knew Zhao Huaiqiu's place in his heart, but he couldn't give up his power.

Then he said: "Mother said that she was supposed to be the second wife of the Shen family, but now she has been reduced to a concubine, what do you think I should answer?" Huaiqiu, you and I have been husband and wife for nearly 20 years, and you still don't know me? Even if I really accept her, I won't treat you half a point less, you are the wife that I am marrying Shen Pingcheng Mingmei, you also know that my mother has not fully accepted you yet, I promised my mother, and I also hope that my mother will no longer embarrass you. ”

Shen Pingcheng coaxed Zhao to lose his temper in a few words, although she was still uncomfortable in her heart, she didn't want Shen Pingcheng to be caught in the middle.

Speaking of which, if it weren't for Gu Xingyan and Gu Xingzhi coming to the Shen Mansion to interrupt in the middle, I'm afraid that the Zhao family and Shen Pingcheng would have quarreled endlessly at this time.

Shen Pingcheng eats soft rather than hard, if Fang Cai Zhao is hysterical questioning Shen Pingcheng, the current situation will never be the way it is now.

"You really want to accept Sister Chan'er, I can't stop you, but don't forget what you say now, I am your wife." Zhao Shi tightly grasped the corner of Shen Pingcheng's clothes and said softly.

Shen Pingcheng gently kissed Zhao's forehead: "This is natural, tomorrow you will take Lan'er and Ah Rong to sit on your mother-in-law's side, but your mother-in-law's temper is ......."

Zhao replied with a soft bow: "I know, you don't have to worry. ”

Early the next morning, the old lady exempted them from asking for peace, and as soon as it was dawn, Mama Fang prepared a qiē.

This time, Shen Rong traveled and only brought a maid from Sang Zhi.

The relationship between Sang Zhi and Mama Chang is deeper than that of several of them, and when she heard that Mama Chang acted calmly and smartly, Shen Rong thought about asking Mama Chang and her grandmother to come over.

After that, the Zhao family took Shen Lan and Shen Rong to the Hanging Flower Gate.

When he was about to walk to the Jiuqu Corridor, Shen Rong saw the end of the corridor, and a group of two people walked by.

It was only when they got closer that they could see their faces.

Zhao reacted first, although Xie Yu was a junior, but his status was noble, he was blessed first, and said: "So early, is Gongzi Xie coming back from outside?" Xie Yu smiled, his eyes inadvertently put back, and his smile was light: "I have done something, Lord Shen is in the mansion?" ”

Xie Yu is looking for only Shen Pingcheng, so this Lord Shen naturally shouts Shen Pingcheng.

Zhao nodded hurriedly in response, seeing that Xie Yu had something to do with Shen Pingcheng, he took the two girls to the side and stepped back to make way for Xie Yu.

Xie Yu nodded politely at the Zhao family, and continued to move forward with his entourage.

He turned his handsome face and looked at Shen Rong, who was also lifting his eyelids, he couldn't deny showing a meaningful smile, and walked away.
