003 Lack of morality

"Mother is angry, that's not how it happened." She tugged at Fahrenheit's sleeve and said, "They bullied me first." ”

"Shut up!"

Fahrenheit pointed to the ground and tapped her back knee with a feather duster.

Shen Yan knelt down with weak legs, and a maid with a double bun flashed in from outside the door at this moment, and before her knees hit the ground, she quickly pulled out a soft futon from behind the flower stand under the curtain and stuffed it under her knees, and then lowered her eyebrows and retreated beside the flower stand.

All the movements are done in one go, like an elegant orchid under Shen Mi's pen.

Shen Yan looked at this maid with her eyes, it was Fu Niang.

Hua Shi carried a feather duster, looking at them like Mu Guiying glaring at Jin Bing.

The affection in Shen Yan's chest that sometimes gushed out at the sight of his biological mother was suddenly interrupted by this feather duster, and turned into a black line. It's right that she beat Gu Song, but this doesn't mean that Gu Song shouldn't be beaten, she still has the surname Shen, a little fart child who relies on Zu Yinyi's command, stepping on the Shen family in front of her, what's wrong with her just beating her?

Of course, this kind of righteous words must not be said to the feather duster in front of you. Shen Yan lay on the ground, looking at the chicken feathers on her head that were blowing in the wind, she cleared her throat and spoke about the cause and effect of the current affairs.

"That's the case......" She told the story from beginning to end, and of course, when she was reborn in a daze, she knew that no one would believe it, and she must have never said it. In the end, she said: "Mrs. Shizi must only know one and not the other, so she will rush to settle the account. ”

"A good sentence, the relatives are bitter, and the enemies are fast!"

Hua sneered again and again, and the feather duster knocked on the rosewood coffee table and trembled, "Who is the Gu family?" That's the Founding Fathers! The grandfathers of the Shen family didn't dare to squeak when they were present, what does this matter to you? Let you go for it?! In this way, the anger on her face became even stronger, but after scolding, she dragged her over and looked up and down, left and right.

"Grandma Mingjian, what the girl said is true!"

Fu Niang also knelt down with the hem of her skirt at this time, and said: "The slave maid just went out with the girl, because she remembered that she was going to the street to repair a bracelet on her hand, so she took leave with the girl and left the workshop. If it wasn't for the slave and the maid to go away, how could the girl go to Yuzu Hutong because she was lost? The people of the Gu family will not bully her because she is alone there. ”

Fu Niang's focus was all on Shen Yan being beaten, but she didn't mention anything about her master stabbing someone and running away, Hua glanced at her, and then looked at Shen Yan, her expression eased in the end.

No matter how stubborn Shen Yan is, she is also her daughter, and she and Shen Mi will teach her a lesson, where can others get involved? But seeing that her speech was smooth and her expression was as usual, she didn't look like she was in trouble, and then she remembered that the Gu family's wife was still waiting at Mrs. Shen's place, which of the two compartments was easy to deal with? Then he suppressed the anger in his heart, got up and said, "Since this is the case, then you come with me!" ”

With that, she picked up a handkerchief and went out first.

How dare Shen Yan slack off? He got up and rushed up.

Because of the memory of two lives, Shen Yan knows the situation of these mansions in Qilinfang well, and he can be regarded as familiar with it. Although the Rongguo Mansion dominates in Qilinfang, it is still difficult to separate from the Shen family.

The Shen family has gone through two dynasties and has stood in the Qiqifang, which is famous for its wealth and wealth in Beijing, for more than 100 years.

In the eight generations, the Shen family has produced two prime ministers, five second-class officials, three feudal officials, and two cabinet elders. Although there is no contact on weekdays, it is related to the rise and fall of the family, and it will still show considerable cohesion.

Nowadays, the Taixue Pavilion and the Guozijian Library also put the works of the ancestors of the Shen family together with Confucius and Mencius.

The history of the Shen Mansion was once a legend in the Central Plains, and now there are only three or four of the top scholars in the north and south of the river, and the Shen family happens to be one of them. It can be said that if it had been more than ten years ago, when someone from the Shen family sneezed on the street, the capital would have to tremble.

Therefore, the greatness and breadth of the Shen Mansion have a reason, this is the accumulation of hundreds of years, and even today's son cannot use the word "regulation" to restrain them.

It is true that it is the brave generals who fight the country, but it is the brain that guards the country. Without literati, there would be no historical inheritance, and without literati, how could the emperor spread his lies to the common people? Qin Shi Huang burned books and pit Confucianism, so the Qin Dynasty was only two generations.

The first emperor Zhou Gaozu seized the former dynasty, the world was settled, of course, he began to implement a policy of appeasement to the civil officials who had ruthlessly crushed in the war, and the Shen Mansion as a family with hundreds of years of foundation, was finally invited to the court as an important member after a few years of silence. The emperor may hate these old men of the previous dynasty in his heart, but as a ruler, he has to sell some face to the old Shen family.

Because selling face to the huge Shen family, it is equivalent to extending a hand of friendship to the world's scholars.

Although his face is sold very limited, he only gives it to a waiter of the Ministry of Rites. But in Shen Yan's previous life, even if he lost a very strong in-law, the Shen family still occupied half of the court within a few years.

Shen Yan followed Hua all the way to Yao Ri Hall, where the main house was located, because the road was fast and a little rusty, and he stumbled a little.

When I arrived at Yaori Hall, I saw that there were several people from other provinces standing under the corridor. And the maids in front of Mrs. Shen also stood in two straight rows under the corridor, and when they saw Hua and Shen Yan coming from a distance, no one came to meet them a few steps, and when they reached the upper steps, the two second-class maids with blue smoke robi armor stepped forward and made a good fortune.

Hua Shi was not treated well by Mrs. Shen, and even the attitude of his subordinates was deepened. If it weren't for Shen Mi taking them to Jinling to take up their posts over the years, they would have stayed in Washington for so many years, out of sight and out of mind, and they wouldn't know what kind of situation they would have ended up in. Since he officially moved back to Beijing from Jinling a month ago, Fahrenheit should have had no more than three chances to see Mrs. Shen.

As soon as the maids reported it, the door suddenly darkened, but it was the fourth grandmother Chen who was wearing an eggplant purple bamboo branch pattern makeup shirt and walked out.

In the past six years in Jinling, the second room only goes home to visit relatives once a year, and each time he stays for three or five days before leaving, there are not many opportunities for contact, and Mrs. Shen's attitude is very obvious.

After returning to Beijing for more than a month, because Mrs. Shen was exempted from the morning and dusk of the mother and daughter in the second room, there were fewer opportunities to meet, and friendship was thinner than the clothes she was wearing now.

Shen Yanfu called "Fourth Aunt".

Chen sighed and patted the back of her hand and said, "Sister Yan'er, don't be afraid, Madam is angry, don't take anything to heart." Just in front of outsiders, don't remember to say anything else, you admit your mistake and it's over. As she spoke, she nodded gently at Fahrenheit, as if relieved by the snack they had done.

"Just admit your mistakes, don't say anything else", Shen Yan lowered his eyes and looked at the ground, stretched his body and folded his hands.

Shen Ming is the only son of the Chen family, and the reason why Shen Yan came forward to respond was because in the face of others' ridicule of the Shen Mansion, Shen Ming and Shen Xin, who were the third-generation children of the Shen family, actually kept silent and let others point their noses and laugh, without any blood.

It is the duty of men to set up a household, even she knows that she has to come forward, as the head of a big family with a foundation of more than 100 years, how could her grandfather Shen Guanyu tolerate Shen Ming and Shen Xin's expression? is so cowardly and inactive, where does he look like the heir of a noble and famous family? She could almost imagine how Shen Guanyu would be furious after knowing Shen Ming's cousin.

Everyone in this house knows that Fahrenheit doesn't like his in-laws, and of course Chen knows it.

There are many children watching, and many of them are in love with Shen Yan, even if the Gu family knows what happened, they will definitely not admit to conniving at their subordinates to insult the officials of the imperial court, so Mrs. Shen must not know that there is such a layer now. So she just had to tell the ins and outs of this matter in Yaoritang later, and then invite the onlookers to confront her, so even if the other party was from the Rongguo Mansion, Shen Ming and Shen Xin would inevitably have a meal.

Chen only gave birth to Shen Ming, Shen Yan remembered that her mother had introduced her prescription for treating the cold disease of the palace in her previous life, and besides, if she remembered correctly, her fourth uncle Shen sent a concubine, and that Aunt Wu was a relative of Shen's aunt's wife, and there were two concubines, and they were all younger than Shen Ming.

In this case, if she was Chen, she didn't dare to let Shen Ming take care of anything.

But if she really obediently hid it for Shen Ming, then who would face the difficulties of the Gu family for their second room after a while? Will the Shen family be? If he could, Shen Ming and Shen Xin would not stand in the crowd and would not dare to say a word.

When a mother's intention to protect her children is good, but if she does too little morality, it will be intolerable.

After experiencing those joys and sorrows, in order to continue to survive, people seem to have suddenly grown more and more eyes as if they have matured, and now they have re-walked the road of the year, and those calculations hidden under the surface of hypocrisy are like carrion on the surface of the water, and all maggots, mosquitoes and ants can't hide from her eyes.

She raised her eyes and glanced at the figure seated in the door, withdrew her front feet that had been lifted into the threshold, raised the corners of her lips shallowly, and said to Chen in a voice that was neither high nor low: "Back to the fourth aunt, I know."

"The Rongguo Mansion is an important minister in the court, and one of the best nobles in Beijing, although I am the second lady of the Shen family, but because the Shen family has declined, I can't afford to provoke them, so I listen to the words of the fourth aunt, and hide the Gu family's people pushing me and hiding the fact that I was knocked out. Although so many friends outside saw it just now, the next time I was asked, I said that they were dazzled by the mistake, and I actually hit it myself. ”

Chen's face suddenly turned black as the bottom of a pot.
