Chapter 171

The old lady has a private treasury, Aunt Liu also has it, Shen Cheng is not lacking, and even other aunts are too, more or less at the bottom of the box, so when the matter is a foregone conclusion, it didn't make a big fuss.

The jewelry of the brocade hall is gone, and it doesn't cost money to get it anyway, although some of my things have been taken away, it's nothing.

They have no grudges against the Prime Minister, and they have to swallow this breath if they don't swallow it. Thirty thousand taels, if everyone's private treasury is scraped together, it is not much at all.

The Prime Minister's Mansion has existed for so many years, and there are many good fields and Zhuangzi, how can it not even take out more than 100,000 taels?

The public is only tens of thousands of taels, and the extra has not been misappropriated by everyone in various names?

Especially Aunt Liu, who has been in charge of Zhongfeng for more than three years, and she didn't catch a little, so Shen Qing didn't believe it later!

Therefore, Aunt Liu dared to promise Shen Yijia that she would find a way to create a faΓ§ade for her daughter, which is absolutely possible.

If the matter didn't work out, everyone dispersed, and Old Madam Shen and Shen Cheng still had to discuss what to do? The private treasury or something is pinched very tightly, and I don't want to take it out to fill the hole when the time comes.

Shen Qing had just returned to Luwuyuan in the evening, it was already late, Mu Tao went to the kitchen to get dinner and came back, and her whole face was a little bad.

Shen Qingwan's eyes flashed, and she thought of something: "What's the matter, someone showed you a look?"

Mu Tao complained to her master depressedly: "Miss, Aunt Liu has reduced the amount of kitchen use, and the food is getting worse day by day."

Xun Han glanced at Shen Qingwan, but did not speak, this situation had been expected a long time ago.

Hearing Mu Tao say this, Shen Qingwan became interested: "Come up and take a look, what kind of dishes are they?"

Just as the indignant Mu Tao brought the dish up, Shen Qingwan was speechless for a while.

On weekdays, there are six dishes, three meats, two vegetables and one soup.

Now there are only three talents, one meat, one vegetable and one soup.

The meat of meat vegetables is also pitiful, and there is a little bit of minced cabbage.

The vegetarian dish is a stir-fried pod, a vegetable in season, but it is almost outdated, and you can tell that the pod is a little old without eating Shen Qingwan, and I don't know if I can bite it.

The soup is even more amazing, the legendary reed crossed the river, and there was just a spinach in it, sprinkled with a few green onions.

After reading it, Shen Qingwan finally knew where Mu Tao's anger came from, no matter how poor the Xiangfu was, she would not lack this stutter, not to mention that she was Miss Xiangfu, except for the old lady and Xiangye, she was the biggest.

If her food is only at this level, what will the maid eat?

It is clear that Aunt Liu hates her very much, and she finally took this opportunity to punish her.

In the past, there was no valid reason, but now even if she makes trouble in front of the old lady, she can't please her, and she just made the old lady unhappy, and the old lady will never stand on her side.

Maybe she will agree with Aunt Liu's nonsense and let her experience the inexplicable reason of suffering.

As soon as Mama Xu came in and saw the dishes on the table, she couldn't help but feel a little sad: "Miss, how can they be so blatant......"

Halfway through the words, Mama Xu couldn't continue, today's trouble between the old lady and Xiangye just made her know more about Xiangye's personality.

"It's okay." Shen Qingwan didn't think so, calmly picked up the rice, and ate it very carefully, while picking up the stones: "It's been so long, but you, I don't know what to eat?" I have to grieve you for a while, if you are really hungry, find a reason to go out and fight tooth sacrifices, if the silver is not enough, remember to ask me to get it. "It's just some small means, Shen Qingwan doesn't look at it yet, more than 100,000 silver have been taken back, and eating a few light meals should be regarded as letting them balance their minds.

"What did the young lady say, as long as you can eat enough, how can you pay so much attention?" Mama Xu took the lead in speaking, and Mu Tao and Xun Han couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Shen Qingwan didn't say much, the two girls followed her, but they didn't suffer anything, and now that she is in need, she has no bottom in her heart.

As for her, what haven't you seen in her previous life? I've even experienced a lot of things myself, but it's just a little bit of food, and it's nothing at all.

Shen Qingwan ate at a slower pace than usual, "Some people can't stand it, this situation won't last long." ”

Although he was so sure, it was still unexpected for someone to come to the door directly.

Looking at this Aunt Hua who was less than twenty suspiciously, Shen Qing had no impression of her previous life, and the two did not intersect.

Looking at Aunt Hua's calm face, generous temperament, and wise eyes, Shen Qingwan knew that it was because she was different from her previous life now, and she was seen by this person.

At this time in her previous life, even if Shen Qingwan understood in her heart, she would involuntarily be tricked by Aunt Liu and others to calculate her family affection, and it was normal for Aunt Hua not to come to the door.

But today's matter of 30,000 taels of silver, as long as you have the heart, you can still find out her methods, and I believe that Aunt Hua is here for this.

Although there is an aunt behind Aunt Hua, Aunt Hua's age is still the youngest among the women in Shencheng, Shen Qingwan is a woman in Shencheng, and when she saw Aunt Hua's bearing, she had to sigh that a flower was inserted in cow dung.

Aunt Hua is delicate, with a melon seed face, which is not stunning at first glance, but has an intellectual nature that makes people remember deeply.

is obviously the daughter of a merchant, but she is educated like a scholarly family, and the Hua family actually put a lot of thought into it! It is estimated that Aunt Hua will be a concubine for Shen Cheng, and the Hua family should be very surprised, as for agreeing or not, Shen Qingwan doesn't know yet.

"It's so late, Aunt Hua should rest more in the room, although the spring flowers are blooming, it is cold in the middle of the night, which is not good for your health." Shen Qingwan raised her eyebrows, leaned on the beauty couch, and slowly played with a cup of tea, like a picture of an ink lady, dazzlingly beautiful.

Aunt Hua couldn't help but be in a trance, and also looked at Shen Qingwan, waved her hand to let all the people around her retreat, and then chuckled: "It is said that the second girl of the Xiangfu is like a fairy, even if it is not as beautiful as Ling Qi of the Yao family, she can also get the first place in the capital, and now I know that rumors are just rumors, there are people outside the world, and there are ...... heavens outside the sky."

Aunt Hua was really sighing, originally in the afternoon, she still felt that Shen Qingwan's temper was a little soft and her temperament was a little weak, but now when she saw this noble and transparent style, she was clearly pretending to be in the afternoon.

Seeing that Aunt Hua said so frankly, Shen Qingwan could see her sincerity, and motioned to Mu Tao to be in the afternoon, so she said lazily: "It's the second sister, Aunt Hua is cautious."

Aunt Hua had a playful look in her eyes, and saw that Shen Qingwan was just talking about the scene, testing each other, and confirming each other whether the other party was worth intersecting.

The result of the trial seems to be very satisfied, both sides have a seven-trick exquisite heart, and some things naturally don't need to be explained too clearly.

"Miss Six is right, but what does Miss Six have in the afternoon?" After the temptation, Aunt Hua immediately spoke bluntly, knowing that Shen Qingwan didn't mind this, she didn't bother to make a detour: "Although you have solved your own troubles by doing this, it has also made the old lady and Xiangye unhappy, Miss Six will enter the palace draft in a few months, I'm afraid it's not a good thing!"

Hearing this, Shen Qingwan guessed what Aunt Hua meant: "What does Aunt Hua think?"

Aunt Hua didn't care, and took out a stack of silver tickets from her wide sleeves: "There are 50,000 taels here, Miss Six might as well fulfill her filial piety, let the old lady and Xiangye be happy, and keep the rest for the draft, not enough to talk about."

Shen Qingwan's eyes stayed on Aunt Hua's face for a while, and when she saw that she was very calm, she moved to the tens of thousands of taels of silver tickets: "Aunt Hua is so generous, my father is anxious about the silver now, why doesn't Aunt Hua please my father by herself."

Although I felt that my guess was a little unreliable, I didn't expect Aunt Hua to really come to give her silver? Is this just to find a personal alliance? It's not like that's how money is squandered!

Aunt Hua smiled and smiled, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a touch of self-deprecation: "It's just that the girl is ignorant and blind, and I'm not the master of the Prime Minister's Mansion?" The thing that takes the money is not for me to do. ”

There are so many aunts in the house, if she wants to be in the limelight, she will definitely become the target of public criticism, even Aunt Liu will regard her as a thorn in her side.

Now that the position of lady is vacant, the first thought of these women is that she rushes to that position.

Although Aunt Hua didn't have this idea, she didn't want to be the target of everyone before it was done.

Shen Qingwan saw Aunt Hua's expression, there were regrets and remorse, but she didn't miss it, and she knew that she regretted knowing and marrying such a scumbag as Shen Cheng.

In terms of personality, she is more simply than her, at least Aunt Hua will not deceive herself if she recognizes it, and she will not know the purpose of the blindness.

However, her mother's family is weak and her identity is insufficient, so she can't get out of the current predicament.

I still remember that in my previous life, the Hua family did have a bereavement's daughter, who was very capable, helped keep the family's business in order, and was always respected and protected by the Hua family.

"Is it the flower family in the east of the city?" Shen Qingwan couldn't help but ask, remembering that the Hua family only had one concubine, so she was very fond of the widowed daughter: "The Hua family who started with medicinal herbs and is now a grain merchant?"

Aunt Hua paused, and a trace of guilt and pride flashed in her expression: "Miss Six also knows?"

This sentence is very plain, which is equivalent to admitting it, after all, she has joined the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shen Qingwan will know that it is not unusual, what is surprising is that Shen Qingwan will pay attention to the Hua family, otherwise the history of the Hua family, how can the official lady be so clear?

Shen Qing secretly gasped, in fact, in her previous life, she knew about the Hua family, and she also knew the widowed daughter of the Hua family, but she really didn't connect her with Aunt Hua of the Xiangfu.

Later, the Prime Minister's Mansion has been dispersed, although Shen Cheng is not dead, it is equivalent to being abolished, and he is waiting for death by the queen's mother all day long, and the women around him are still continuous, but there is no freedom to choose independently.

At the time of the decline, the aunt and the room were almost not left, not that the wife had no peace and separation, and the aunt could naturally leave.

Shen Qingwan was silent for a moment, and said leisurely: "Fifty thousand taels of silver, what do you want?" Shen Qingwan will not give silver, even if the silver is not his own, he will not make a move in his own name.

Some people can't be fed, even if they take Aunt Hua's money to do things this time, what about the future?

The old lady and Shen Cheng would definitely think that she had a lot of silver in her hand, could it be that every time she scraped the oil in the future, she would let Aunt Hua fill it?

The Hua family does have that strength, but Shen Qingwan is unwilling to do that week's peeling.

Moreover, she wants to know the true purpose of Aunt Hua.

Aunt Hua chuckled: "It's just that as a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion, I don't want the Prime Minister's Mansion to be defeated like this, and I have also dreamed that every woman should have."

Shen Qing was late and relaxed, and Aunt Hua was really unexpectedly straightforward.

Isn't the dream that every woman should have pointed to the position of a wife?

I don't want the Prime Minister to lose, it's because Aunt Hua hasn't thought of another way, after all, many things have not been experienced, and it is normal to think of it.

"If Miss Six doesn't want to, you can leave me alone." Seeing Shen Qingwan's silence, Aunt Hua thought that she thought of her mother, so she added.

In the eyes of her daughter, that position belongs to her mother, which is understandable.

Aunt Hua will mention it, but she just expresses her true intentions and implies that she is sincerely allied.

Aunt Hua didn't really want that position as much as others, but it was just because there was no better way.

"My aunt thinks about it too much, my mother doesn't have any nostalgia for that position." Shen Qingwan said slowly, in fact, it didn't hurt if Aunt Liu sat on that position, and her mother felt ashamed from beginning to end.

Now I am doing my hands, but I am just blocking Aunt Liu, who makes this woman always love to step on her on the upper position? If it was other means, Shen Qingwan didn't bother to give a reason, but he didn't want to sacrifice himself to fulfill this person.

Hearing this, Aunt Hua's expression was clear, when she entered the door, the prime minister's wife had not passed away, and she secretly learned a lot of news, knowing how the lady got married and how she got along with the prime minister. All of these made Aunt Hua shameless towards Shen Cheng, and she saw the true face of this man more clearly, she was young and ignorant, but she was deceived by the appearance of a talented and beautiful woman.

"But you didn't think about living your own life?" Shen Qingwan gave another proposal: "If you really want to become the wife of the Prime Minister's Mansion, with your background, it may not be a good thing."

The businessman, the aunt, even if it is corrected, it is two fatal wounds.

Even if Aunt Hua has the means, it is very difficult to break into the circle of high society, and that position really means little to her.

Thinking of the future development of the Hua family, Shen Qing will inevitably sell well, not to mention, she really appreciates the later Hua family girl.

If it is corrected, even if the Prime Minister's Mansion is gone in the future, it will be difficult for Aunt Hua to get out again.

Aunt Hua opened her mouth wide and looked at Shen Qingwan with some surprise, is this the man who made her betray herself?

Aunt Hua obviously hadn't considered this situation yet, and was shocked by Shen Qingwan's words, which didn't match her concept all along.

Shen Qingwan rolled her eyes elegantly: "Aunt Hua thinks too much, you are just an aunt, not Mrs. Xiangye, where did the betrayal come from?"

In this circle, there is some vague darkness.

Concubines, women like Tongfang, if the male owner is willing, they can give it away at will.

As for the aunt, it is not safe, once there is this need, the aunt can be reduced to a concubine and given away, this degree is completely controlled by the man, it is not unusual at all.

"Besides, I'm not saying that now, if one day the Prime Minister's Mansion ceases to exist, will you still stay here? Your parents raised you, it's not that you can hide your worries by reporting good news or bad news, they love you as a daughter, so they just respect your choice, but definitely want you to live happily. ”

When Shen Qingwan said this, she thought of her mother. "You should understand, you've hurt them once, do you want to hurt them again? Not everyone has such a pair of parents who are wholeheartedly happy for themselves, Aunt Hua, you should be blessed. ”

Aunt Hua's whole person seemed to have been struck by thunder, stunned, a little frightened, and a little enlightened.

Shen Qingwan knew that this amount of information was very important to Aunt Hua, and it was very exciting, but she just couldn't get used to seeing this woman still fighting for Shen Cheng, so it was better to wake up early.

Shen Cheng is special to this Aunt Hua, maybe the love between the two is dreamy and beautiful, so it is worth remembering.

Moreover, such an experience made Shen Cheng extremely confident in his charm, and his love for Aunt Hua on weekdays was not the same.

Shen Qingwan wanted to know, when Shen Cheng knew that Aunt Hua didn't love him anymore and added a handful of withered grass to her beautiful relationship, what kind of reaction did Shen Cheng have?

"You have thought clearly, the position of Mrs. is not suitable for you, without children, you will be pressed by Aunt Liu for the rest of your life." Shen Qingwan reminded the key point again.

Compared with Aunt Liu, Aunt Hua's identity is even more insufficient, Aunt Liu is from an official family, although she is only a petty official.

Moreover, Aunt Liu also has three children, one of whom is the third young master who is favored by the Prime Minister.

To be honest, even if Aunt Hua sits on it with silver because of this opportunity, she will be disgusted by the old lady, and after a long time, the original beauty will become a grain of rice in Shencheng's mouth, and the situation at that time can be imagined......

It's not that Aunt Hua can't think of this stubble, but the third young master of the Xiangfu is also unreliable, plus this time the incident happened quickly, so she didn't expect to go there.

was reminded by Shen Qingwan like this, Aunt Hua knew that it was not good, she did not have any chips except silver.

And the Prime Minister's Mansion, it is not necessarily that there is such a shortage of silver at any time, this time the two shopkeepers came to the door, but it was an extraordinary period.

Her mind suddenly rested for a while, and Aunt Hua said suspiciously: "I'm still young, your father is also in the prime of life, and his health is just right, how do you know that there will be no more brothers?"

Almost every aunt thinks so, it doesn't matter if the child is born, when they sit on the throne, they can still be a sister-in-law when they give birth to one!

Shen Qingwan's expression was weird, and there was a hint of ridicule: "That's right, my father is still a few years away from forty, and he is in the prime of life, so many aunts are not in good health, let alone children, and they haven't even been pregnant."

At this time, Aunt Hua was really shocked.

It's not that no one thought of this matter, even the old lady found out that something was wrong, vaguely, the aunt had found a doctor in the room, from the house, outside, and quietly took a lot of medicine.

Even, even Aunt Liu is no exception, but no one is pregnant anymore.

Although the atmosphere of this era is open, there are still many constraints for women.

This kind of thing is generally attributed to women, and rarely takes into account men.

What's more, isn't there a few children born in front of this? Prove that Shen Cheng is no problem! And let's just say that recently, isn't Aunt Wu also pregnant?
