Volume 1: Who Have Seen Anyone Again Chapter 272 - Heartlessness (4)

"Auntie......" Shen Cang's voice was a little indifferent.

Old Mrs. Qiao only felt astringent in her heart, pulled Shen Cang's sleeve, and burst into tears.

Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao only felt that they couldn't sit still, today was the joy of the second brother of the Shen family, and their mother-in-law was crying like this, which was really unpopular.

The two didn't dare to look at Shen Cang, so they took a few points to look at the Xu family.

This is rude.

Xu sat at the bottom of Shen Cang, only did not see it.

Old Lady Qiao had already choked and said, "Brother Cang, Brother Cang...... Aunt is not good......"

Shen Cang was quite surprised in his heart, this aunt of his own family has a strong nature, even if the family is in the middle of the road, it is difficult to see the time to bow her head. If there is nothing to ask for, how can it be?

"Auntie, is this a recent health discomfort? Can you ask for a doctor? Shen Cang asked with a little concern.

Old Mrs. Qiao was ready to speak, and when it came to her mouth, she held back again.

She is almost old, and she has reached the age when she avoids talking about life and death, but the nephew in front of her is cursing her sick.

Even if she wanted to speak like this, she couldn't hear anyone say that.

Xu Shi answered on the side: "This can't be a shy treat, otherwise wouldn't it make the two cousins worried?" ”

As she said this, she swept towards Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao.

Although these two wives are forty-five people, they are not the Shen family after all, and the two female relatives do not avoid foreign men?

Obviously, before the eldest man came back, the Xu family wanted to invite the two wives of the Qiao family to have tea in the second room, but they were stopped by the old lady Qiao.

Mrs. Qiao is just "relying on the old and selling the old", thinking that her nephew and nephew and daughter-in-law will not slap her in the face in front of her two daughters-in-law.

But if she is shameless, why do others still give the Qiao family face?

Is it true that the two of them will ask for it at will? They are the sons of the Shen family and the daughter-in-law of the Shen family, and they are not compatible with the Qiao family

Mrs. Qiao only felt that her face was full of shame, and Mrs. Qiao didn't know the purpose of her mother-in-law and eldest sister-in-law coming over today, she only felt that her mother-in-law was a little unusual, like singing, and the attitude of the Shen family couple was too cold.

Old Mrs. Qiao heard the meaning of Xu's words, and scolded Xu a few words in her heart, but she still looked at Shen Cang and sighed: "People are old and full of problems, this is an old disease, where can the imperial doctor cure life and death?" No wonder my sister has been dreaming a lot lately...... This is to pick me up......"

Speaking of which, she was really sad.

Life is rare for seventy years, she is already old, and she has several great-grandsons and great-granddaughters. But the eldest son is not angry, the second son is unreliable, and the third son is in a foreign position. Qiao's family has been reduced from a high gate in the past to a low-grade official eunuch's house.

In the year of "Jingcha" last year, if Shen Cang really had the intention to mention the Qiao family, how could he let Master Qiao still be in his original position?

The Shen family is full of flowers, and even the younger generation has begun to seek fame, but the six grandsons of the Qiao family have not even come out.

Even if the fifth brother and the sixth brother can pass the hospital examination next year, they can see that their college examination is so difficult, and I don't know how many subjects they have to study in the township examination.

If the Qiao family doesn't pick up, it will only fall faster. originally held the idea of marriage, but due to the limitations of the family, the relatives of several grandchildren and granddaughters were not ideal, and there were no in-laws to count on.

The Shen family is different, although the next generation is thin and the cousins are young, but the brothers at the head of the other houses of the Shen family are all in the officialdom, and there is a champion among them.

The more Old Lady Qiao thought about it, the more sad she became, and Shen Cang couldn't help but be moved.

No matter how confused Mrs. Qiao is, after all, she is her own aunt. The two elders who are close relatives of the husband and wife are just this one person left.

Shen Cang's expression slowed down, and said: "There are many people in this world who are old and long-lived, and my aunt has always been healthy and will definitely live a long life for a hundred years." ”

Xu's husband sang casually, so he also called the maid to the water to clean the face of Mrs. Qiao.

As for Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao, they only had to accompany Mrs. Qiao to shed tears.

Old Mrs. Qiao stopped her tears, purified her face, and looked at Shen Cang with a loving face: "This day flies so fast, I still remember the scene when you just landed, thin and small, less than five catties...... When others saw it, they all followed the suspense, only my sister saw it, only the one who laughed, and held you in her arms and didn't let go...... Until the second brother landed, it was my sister who took care of you personally......"

When Shen Zhou landed, Shen Cang was already five years old, which is the age when he can remember, how can he forget his kindness?

Even after Shen Zhou was born, the third old lady also valued Shen Cang more. In addition to Shen Cang being the eldest son, because Shen Cang's body was weaker than Shen Zhou, the third old lady felt guilty, thinking that she was not raised well when she was pregnant, and it was the premature birth that made the eldest son weak.

Although the third old lady has some soft ears, she is a loving mother. not only treats his two sons like treasures, but also takes care of his concubines and concubines.

Just like when the third master landed, the housewife of the other family would definitely think that the concubine would divide the family property and dislike it; The third old lady happily recorded it in her name, and said to her two sons: "Be good to my younger brother, you will have more arms in the future......"

The third old lady is not a ruthless person, but she values her son too much. Although she set up a resignation back then, she was not without guilt about the Sun family. When the Xu family went out of Beijing to marry the Sun family, the third old lady sold half of her dowry and exchanged it for gold and silver to the Xu family privately, wanting to make up for the Sun family.

It's just that Xu didn't dare to be self-conscious, although he didn't tell the third master, but he also quietly told her husband.

Shen Cang kept this gold and silver, not because he was reluctant to give up his mother's dowry, but because he was afraid that the third master would be even more angry when he found out.

It is true that the dowry is the private property of the third old lady, but most of the Shen family's property in Beijing was purchased by Mrs. Sun in the past. The Sun family is not short of money, and the Shen family really wants to send money over, which is the real injury to the friendship between the two families.

But in order to make the third old lady feel at ease, Shen Cang did not ask his wife to return the gold and silver to her. When the second master was divided, Shen Cang gave the gold and silver to the second master privately.

The happier the days in the early years, the colder the later days will be, and the initiator of all this is the person in front of him.

His parents died before he was a young man, and he didn't even see his grandchildren.

Thinking of the past, Shen Cang only felt that his headache was getting more and more cracked, and his eyes were black for a while, and he stood up and said, "My nephew is a little unwell, let Xu accompany my aunt to talk ......" After that, without waiting for Mrs. Qiao's reaction, she had already gotten up and gone to the back room.

Qiao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law couldn't help but be dumbfounded, Mrs. Qiao sang and snorted half-loudly, without saying a word seriously, looking at Shen Cang's back, she almost vomited out half of her old blood.

Xu couldn't help but change color, hurriedly served tea, and said to Qiao's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law: "Auntie, two cousins, my lord is sick, I want to accompany ...... less."

Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao had nothing to say, but Mrs. Qiao refused to leave.

She lowered her face and said, "Brother Cang is not in good health, so he doesn't look for a doctor to take a look." I'm his aunt, how can I leave at this time? ”

She only thought that Shen Cang was pretending to be sick and was ashamed, so she wanted to leave a "exposé".

Xu's face was already cold, and he told his mother-in-law to ask for a doctor, and then asked his maid to invite Shen Rui.

Shen Rui had already finished sending off the guests, and he was going to come to the main courtyard, but he heard that the Qiao family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were there, so he didn't come.

The Qiao family doesn't like him, and he doesn't like the Qiao family, and now they are tired of each other.

Hearing that Master Shen was not in good health, Shen Rui hurriedly came over.

After giving a hurried greeting to the Qiao family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, Shen Rui went to the inner room.

Shen Cang was lying on the bed sideways, his face was pale, there was no blood, his brows were furrowed, and he rubbed his temples with one hand, unable to hide the pain.

Shen Rui was horrified in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Father, ...... are you?"

Shen Cang slowly opened his eyes and said with a forced smile: "Second brother, don't worry, I'm just tired, let's crook first...

Shen Cang has a chronic illness, he was sick twice a year ago, because of his age, even if he is well, his mental and physical strength is not as good as before.

Shen Rui said with guilt: "It must be because of his son that his father is tired." ”

Inviting guests to eat and drink, and people to come and go, are more laborious than the yamen office.

Shen Cang waved his hand lightly and said, "What are you talking about, I'm very happy today, the second brother is good......

Shen Rui saw that his voice was reluctant, so he didn't lead him to speak, and just sat next to him worriedly.

Listening to the sound of talking in the inner room, Old Lady Qiao looked at Xu with a sneer on her face.

Xu was worried in his heart, and when he saw Mrs. Qiao like this, he also became angry.

Whether to respond to such an elder, or to accompany her husband and son, this question is not difficult to choose.

Xu got up and instructed his mother-in-law: "Go and arrange a carriage to send the old lady and the two cousins back."

Without waiting for Mrs. Qiao to speak, Xu had already said to Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao: "I really don't want to keep guests, please take care of ...... two" After that, he also followed to the back room, and when he walked to the door, he instructed the two maids behind him: "Don't be noisy, so that the master is not quiet"

Old Mrs. Qiao couldn't vomit, so she got up and was about to go to the back room with Xu.

The two servants were like generals guarding the door, blocking the door of the inner room.

Mrs. Qiao was just about to have a seizure, but Mrs. Qiao had already held Mrs. Qiao's arm before she died, and prayed in a low voice: "Old lady, don't tear your face......"

Old Lady Qiao hesitated.

The nephew and daughter-in-law don't give her face like this, does she still have to endure it?

But if you can't bear it, the precarious relationship between the Qiao and Shen families is about to break down completely, so what can their children and grandchildren really do?

In the end, it was about the flesh and bones, and the old lady Qiao held back her face flushed, and retreated to her seat.

Mrs. Qiao and Mrs. Qiao persuaded several times in a low voice, no matter whether Master Shen was really sick or false, since the Shen family said so, what was the point of staying here to expose it.

Mrs. Qiao calmed down and understood this truth, so she drooped her face and helped her two daughters-in-law out of the house.

I didn't want to, as soon as I got out of the second door, I saw the mother-in-law of the Shen family hurriedly coming over with a doctor.

Seeing this, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Qiao family couldn't help but show a different color......
