Chapter 47: Retreat

But the constant changes in Shen Yuntang's body reminded her that what she had high hopes for was not a male grandson, but just a girl who was no different from other concubines in the house.

After Mrs. Shen was stunned for a moment, her eyes gradually became firm.

She stretched out her hand to Mama Ge beside her, and Mama Ge hurriedly supported the old lady.

"Let's go, go to Xiaofeng Ju with the old body to see Ah Tang."

Inside, Shen Yuntang, who had finally survived the pain, slowly gained some consciousness, she slowly opened her eyes sadly, and in her blurred vision, she saw her grandmother sitting on the edge of the bed with a worried face, and she was stretching out a hand to wipe the sweat oozing from her forehead.

Shen Yuntang was stunned for a moment, and then shouted "grandmother" in a hoarse voice.

Old Madam Shen smiled kindly, "Are you still uncomfortable?" ”

Shen Yuntang shook her head slightly, raised her head, and Bai Mei, who was waiting next to her, hurriedly helped her to lean against the head of the bed.

"I'm fine, grandmother, why are you here?"

Old Madam Shen pursed her puckered lips, feeling extremely guilty in her heart.

"Ah Tang, it's all because my grandmother is not good and makes you suffer like this."

The old lady was really uncomfortable, and she couldn't stop her tears.

Shen Yuntang was stunned for a moment, and he didn't expect Old Madam Shen to say such a sentence.

To be honest, she is not the original owner, and she actually doesn't have much feeling about women pretending to be men.

However, this old lady Shen's feelings for her are real, even if Shen Yuntang has changed her core now, she can feel it.

"Grandmother, where are you talking about, I am a descendant of the Shen family, this is my responsibility, I am not wronged!"

Old Madam Shen took Shen Yuntang's hand, which was still slightly sweaty, and patted it, "When Wing Chun told my grandmother about this, my grandmother thought about it, in the end, our Shen family is still greedy for such wealth and honor, and we can't lose the honor of our ancestors, we forced it." Now your grandfather is sick in bed, and our Shen family has no queen until now, and we have to rely on you to support a female baby. This regent is eyeing you, Ah Tang, when you enter the court, our family will find an opportunity and retire. ”

Even if you lose your title or official position, as long as the family can stay together, there is nothing wrong with it.

No matter how great a hero is, it is a piece of loess after death, and no matter how powerful a dynasty is, there will be a day of annihilation, and it will not be too sooner or later.

The Shen family has reached this point, even if they hold on to death, they are still the end of the crossbow.

It's better to look at it earlier, and there is nothing wrong with being a rich farmer and having no quarrel with the world.

Shen Yuntang was slightly surprised, obviously she didn't expect Old Madam Shen to say such a thing to her.

Want the Shen family to retire?

Shen Yuntang looked directly into her grandmother's eyes, and after a few seconds, she realized that what her grandmother said was actually sincere!

Her old man really wanted the Shen family to withdraw from this historical stage and be willing to be mediocre.

She was slightly stunned and pulled the corners of her mouth, "Grandmother, have you really thought about it?" ”

Old Madam Shen sighed, "Right and wrong are empty. There are some things that can't be forced, if it weren't for the fact that we have been at the center of power, how could the Shen family have come to such a point! Now, I can see it, and your grandfather has already retired. ”

Shen Yuntang nodded, in fact, she didn't want to dress up as a man and mix in the court like this.

Now that she has stopped taking medicine, she can't see anything at the moment, I'm afraid that in a few months, the characteristics of her body that belong to her daughter's family will become more and more obvious, and you can know a thing or two from this Kwai Shui, she used to drink medicine, and Kwai Water has never been there.

At that time, even if she wants to hide it, I'm afraid she won't be able to hide it.

It is better to take advantage of this time to make preparations for retirement, and then their Shen family will be thousands of miles away, who cares if this big Yan Jiangshan is the little emperor's or the regent's, what does it matter to her!

At that time, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to support the second elder, if it is possible to find a reliable man by herself, then it will be in vain, and it will not be in vain for her to go through.

Shen Yuntang thought for a while, "Grandmother, I know what you mean, don't worry, I'll take care of it." ”

Old Madam Shen stayed in Shen Yuntang's Howling Wind House until after lunch before leaving.

In the afternoon, Shen Yuntang's body was better, so he went to the study again, and at the moment, the first thing was to make money.

Although the stove business can also be done, it is a small business after all, and it can't make much money, and it is unlikely that it will be possible to use such a small business to maintain the expenses of the Yongxing Hou Mansion.

And Aunt Han can't be demanding, she can manage the shop in the public middle school well, and it is not easy to stop losing money for the time being.

wants to make money, and it's a big pit, so she has to find a way here.

Thinking so, she already had an idea.

Maybe she is not very proficient in court affairs, but this business and making money is her strength.

After sorting out the account books of Jubaoxuan, he asked the housekeeper Nie Weilai to come.

Steward Nie is an old man in the Yongxing Hou Mansion, and he is in charge of most of the domestic servants, so it is only fitting for him to choose a new shopkeeper for Jubaoxuan.

By the time Steward Nie received the order to leave, it was already half past the afternoon.

Wing Chun took advantage of this gap to come in with brown sugar water, "Master Hou is here for the first time, and he suffers again, so let's rest." ”

Shen Yuntang took the brown sugar water, drank it in one go, and brought some hot brown sugar water into her stomach, making her sigh comfortably, and her pale little face was a little more ruddy.

Shen Yuntang just wanted to follow Wing Chun's words and go back to the bedroom to rest for a while, but her abdomen did have some throbbing pain at this time.

Just as he was about to get up, a little maid came in to report that she was coming to live a long life.

Shen Yuntang's eyes suddenly lit up, "Let him come in!" ”

So, after a while, Changshou entered the small study in a hurry.

Before he could salute Shen Yuntang, he sensitively noticed that Wing Chun was looking at him with dissatisfied eyes, and the hairs on his hair stood up.

He swallowed his saliva and smiled flatteringly at Wing Chun, and then respectfully saluted Shen Yuntang.

"Master Hou!"

Shen Yuntang looked at him with a smile, "But it's done?" ”

Hearing Shen Yuntang ask, Changshou finally grinned and nodded excitedly.

"Master Hou, it's done! It's less, but it's really done! My men told me in the morning that I couldn't believe it yet! ”

"I'll take a look." Shen Yuntang couldn't care about the discomfort on his body, and his joy was beyond words.

So I saw Changshou take out a delicate pear blossom wood brocade box from his wide sleeve pocket, walked to Shen Yuntang in three or two steps, and then presented the brocade box to Shen Yuntang with both hands.

At this time, Wing Chun was also curious, and he didn't understand what would make his master and longevity so happy.

She leaned over to see what was going on.

Shen Yuntang smiled, and did not avoid Wing Chun, and opened the pear blossom wood brocade box with black paint in front of the two of them.

A small piece of blue brocade was spread out in a small boxy box.

On the blue brocade lay a black thing, irregular in shape, shining with a sheer light.

Wing Chun's eyes widened, and he couldn't tell what it was for a while.

Shen Yuntang twisted this small stone-like thing on his white fingertips, put it in front of the window, looked at the window, and then put it away properly.

"The material is right, but there are still many deficiencies in the process."

Changshou also understands that this is just a defective product.

"This is the first time it has been burned, and it is inevitable that there will be many shortcomings, as long as Hou Ye gives it for another three days, he will definitely be able to make something that you are satisfied with." There was excitement in Changshou's tone, and he couldn't wait.

Those shining eyes seem to be witnessing the appearance of treasures!

Shen Yuntang laughed, "Okay, then I'll give you another three days!" ”
