Chapter 7: Get on your knees
Shen Mixiang said lightly: "Okay, it's not the first time she's like this." She has treated me like this all these years, so why should you be angry. Let's go, go to the main house. ”
In the main room, Steward Fan was talking to Shen Wang about the Golden Crow Ferry, even though Steward Fan downplayed the matter, he still couldn't stop Shen Wang's darkening face.
"Sir, the third girl is back and is waiting to see you outside the house." The voice of a handmaid was heard outside the door.
Shen Wang said coldly, "Let her in." ”
The door curtain opened from the outside, and Shen Mixiang lowered her head and lowered her eyes and entered, followed by Iris.
"Three girls." When Steward Fan saw Shen Mixiang coming in, he bowed his head and said politely.
Shen Mixiang smiled slightly, "When did Uncle Fan come back, and all the goods on the ferry have been unloaded?" ”
Steward Fan replied respectfully: "All the unloading has been completed, the batch of goods you wanted, third girl, I have entrusted someone to send it to Mingyuefang." ”
"Thank you Uncle Fan." She thanked her heartily.
Uncle Fan smiled but did not say a word, and then stood quietly aside.
Shen Wang, who had been black-faced, did not say a word.
Shen Mixiang observed the words, looked up and quickly glanced at Shen Wang, who was displeased, and then lowered her eyebrows and called softly: "Daughter asks for peace to my father." ”
"Hmph, do you still have my father in your eyes? I see that you are becoming more and more unruly, and you don't know how many pounds and taels you weigh! ”
As he spoke, he put the tea cup in his hand on the table, "Kneel!" ”
This sound frightened Iris all over her body, raised her eyes to look at her girl, and couldn't help but sweat for her.
According to past experience, every time my own girl does something that makes the eldest master uncomfortable, the eldest lord indiscriminately scolds the three girls for corporal punishment, and I am afraid that I can't hide this time.
Obviously, the palms and backs of his hands are full of meat, and the eldest lord is completely in the palm of his hand for the eldest girl and the second girl, but for the third girl, he has been calling and going from childhood to adulthood. Thinking of this, Iris was heartbroken, distressed, and felt aggrieved for her girl.
Shen Mixiang raised her eyes, her gaze quietly met Shen Wang's gaze, without fear or flinching. If it was the past, Shen Wang asked her to kneel, she would definitely kneel without saying a word, but this time, she didn't think she was wrong.
"My daughter doesn't know what she did wrong, and she makes your father angry? Please also tell me clearly. ”
Shen Wang saw that she looked stubborn, but she was still standing straight in front of her, and her heart was even more angry: "You still say that you don't know what's wrong?!" Let me ask you, what kind of excitement did you go to a girl's house to join in this morning's Jinwu ferry? Is there no one in our Shen family, do you need to be strong? Now you think you're capable of it, so you go out and show off, right? ”
A series of questioning words were thrown out of Shen Wang's mouth, and Shen Mixiang only felt cold.
After a moment of silence, Shen Mixiang said calmly: "Dad, what is the original situation, I think Uncle Fan has also explained it carefully to you, and my daughter will no longer explain it to you." But my daughter wants you to know that it happened suddenly, and my daughter was also out of helplessness at that time. Besides, it's already happened, so you might as well take it off. ”
This understatement successfully calmed down Shen Wanggang's anger, and suddenly surged back into his heart.
"All of a sudden? Dare to tell me that something happened suddenly, why don't you wait for me to come back and discuss? ”
After a pause, he continued: "Do you know how people outside are talking about you and the Shen family? They all said that the Shen family raised a good daughter, not only did they not have the posture of a daughter's family, but they also openly showed their faces outside, and a good rich lady did not stay in the boudoir, but learned from men to do business outside. Over the years, I have tried every possible way to prevent you from going out to run the spice business, but you have not taken me to heart. Without...... I will not promise your grandfather to let you inherit the Shen family's spice craftsmanship. ”
"So, you still don't approve of your father's decision?"
An old voice suddenly sounded at the door, Shen Mixiang's eyes lit up, and when she turned her head, she saw the white-haired old man Shen who was over eighty years old, walking into the house on crutches and surrounded by his subordinates.
