Yang Shen was annoyed and angry, it is true that there are a lot of nonsense rumors outside, and none of them are in line with the facts, for example, on the issue of Shen Mingjun and Hui Niang, Yang Shen knows this younger brother very well, where does he have the ability to catch up with a capable woman like Hui Niang?

If the rumors are true, it is really a flower stuck in cow dung!

But this time, she was extremely sure about the fact that the Zhou family had shares in many of Hui Niang's industries, because the person who provided her with the information was very conclusive, and it was not one or two, all of them were members of the Elder Hall of the Chamber of Commerce.

"Stinky boy, what's your last name? My aunt is not a troublemaker......"

Yang Shen knows that Shen Xi's status in the Shen family is not as good as before, and now that the little nephew has passed the government examination, he will take the hospital examination in the coming year, in the eyes of the old lady, he is the future of the people, and now Shen Xi is a child talking in front of adults, and the old lady is silent.

"I have proof. This woman, every year from Mrs. Lu's hands of the silver, no less than a thousand taels, but only one or two hundred taels to take home, she took the silver to buy a mansion herself...... Mother, do you ask her if there is such a thing? ”

Li looked at his daughter-in-law with a frown, and asked with a calm face, "Is this serious?" ”

The Zhou family can not admit that they have shares in the Hui Niang industry, but the Shen family bought a house in Fucheng, and this matter cannot be hidden, after all, the family has moved to a new house a year ago, and Shen Mingjun also knows about this matter, and he will never hide it from the Li family.

In desperation, Zhou nodded with tears. Just when the Li family was disappointed and about to get angry, Shen Xi hurriedly defended: "Grandmother, that house was bought by Aunt Sun to our family, and she also said that only in the future, when I win the show, will the house be transferred to my grandson's name as a gift to congratulate my grandson on going to school." ”

Yang Shen now felt that victory was in sight, and after listening to Shen Xi's words, he couldn't help but sneer again: "Silly boy, Mrs. Lu is a shrewd businessman. In the Chamber of Commerce, why do you give your family a house for no reason? The house where your family lives, I asked, even if it was flooded this year. It is also worth more than three hundred taels of silver, plus repairs and additions, how can it cost four or five hundred taels of silver. Will Mrs. Lu kindly give it to you? ”

Shen Xi retorted: "Auntie, there is something I don't understand, since you also said that Mrs. Lu is a shrewd businessman. When my mother went to the county alone, she was the guy who helped Mrs. Lu sell medicine at the counter, she expanded her business and did those big deals, why did she give her share to her mother for no reason, so that we could get benefits? ”

Even if Yang Shen was well prepared, she herself could be eloquent and skillful, but she was still speechless by this question.

This is also the crux of the whole problem.

Yang Shen was also surprised when he heard that Zhou had a stake in Hui Niang's shop. She knows very well how honest Shen Mingjun and his wife are, and the two of them have no skills, let alone craftsmanship, and they don't even know a word, how can a woman with such a ability as Hui Niang easily divide the silver in her hand?

She didn't know that from the very beginning, Hui Niang's rise was because Shen Xi helped plant cowpox, and then the establishment of printing workshops, silver horns, and pharmaceutical factories was all under Shen Xi's suggestion. Hui Niang and the Zhou sisters joined forces to do it, only because Hui Niang always stood in front of the stage, coupled with her outstanding ability, that people would feel that she was a veritable big shopkeeper.

Yang Shen's face turned red. She didn't expect Shen Xi to be so difficult to deal with, and thought to herself: "Those who have read books are really different, this kid is a little older than my son, how can he be so different?" ”

Yang Shen said coldly: "Then how do you explain that Mrs. Lu is going to give the house to your family?" ”

Shen Xi explained: "Auntie, nephew have all said it. It wasn't given to my family by Aunt Sun, but to me. Aunt Sun's husband died at an early age, and now she only has her daughter by her side, because her property is in her daughter's name, so she can't marry and have children, Aunt Sun has long wanted to recognize me as a righteous son, and my father also knows about this. If my grandmother and aunt don't believe me, you can ask my father. ”

When Shen Mingjun heard this, he hurriedly came out to confirm: "Mother, sister, this is indeed the case. Mrs. Lu wanted to accept Qilang as her adopted son two years ago, and she discussed it with me at the beginning, and I agreed, but it was only because the young lady in Mrs. Lu's family did not agree that this matter was delayed. At that time, it was discussed that when the child was older, he would do the matter of recognizing his stepmother. ”

Because Shen Mingjun has been working as a subordinate in the Wang family, even if he is a big shopkeeper in the printing workshop, he still treats Hui Niang as a housewife, and even calls Lu Xi'er "Miss". At first, the Li family thought, that Mrs. Lu wants to give me a share of the shop, is it greedy for my son? Now I hear my son call the Lu family so respectfully, which means that everything that is rumored outside is nothing.

Li nodded and said, "You also mentioned this in the letter you wrote back before, and your mother didn't object to it at the beginning. ”

Yang Shen hurriedly said: "Mother, do you really believe the nonsense that their husband and wife say?" ”

At first, Yang Shen's target was still Zhou's, with her understanding of Shen Mingjun, she thought that her younger brother should stand more on the Shen family's position, but now she found that the situation was wrong, not only Shen Mingjun spoke for his wife, but even Shen Xi also came out to support his mother, the rope of this family of three was tightened, she thought, what kind of drug did this woman pour into the father and son?

Her tone is no longer "this woman", but "their husband and wife".

Li's eyes widened with anger: "Otherwise, who does he believe?" If you want your mother to believe you, you will come up with evidence, just listen to the nonsense of outsiders, and you will come back to provoke the relationship between the family? Even if it's really the old daughter-in-law who earns money outside? She earned it, and she still knows it to the family, what about you, the daughter who got married, don't you want to worry about your mother? ”

Yang Shen was angry and was about to refute it, but Yang Linghe, who had not spoken, stood up and pulled his wife's arm to stop his wife from talking.

Yang Linghe arched his hand and said: "Mother, the son-in-law remembered that he had to go to meet a few old friends of Ninghua today, and he would take the lady over first, and he might be delayed until late, and he would sleep in the inn for the time being tonight." Wen Zhao stayed here and came back tomorrow to pick him up. ”

How could Li not hear that this was because the husband and wife had complaints in their hearts and did not want to live at home? However, she also found that this face was deadlocked, so it was better to leave to calm down, so she nodded immediately: "Okay, remember to come over earlier to pick up this child...... I haven't seen my grandson for a few days, so I have to talk to him this time. ”

Then no one sent Yang Ling and his wife out, they left on their own.

When the people left, Li Shi said in a slightly comforting tone: "Old daughter-in-law, don't cry, now that your sister-in-law is also gone, tell your mother if there is such a thing?" ”

Lee's trick is clearly both soft and hard.

Yang Shen's previous play was a bully's hard bow, and just now Li also said "Even if the old daughter-in-law makes money outside", and now he is acting again, obviously using soft words to trick Zhou's to tell the truth.

Zhou Shi seemed to understand this, she wiped away her tears, sobbed, raised her head and said resolutely: "Even my mother doesn't believe in my daughter-in-law? ”

Li Shi was not able to answer for a while.

Shen Xixin said, the old lady's rhetorical question is really beautiful!

From beginning to end, the old lady did not say that she did not hide the silver privately, the words were either said by his son, or the father replied, none of them came from the mouth of the old lady, the old lady from the beginning with a look of I was wronged and cried there, which also made Li's heart soft, although her daughter is a piece of meat on her body, but now her daughter is with someone else's surname, and she is also thinking about her husband's family, and her daughter-in-law can't look at it anymore, that is also the Shen family, and she wants to get back the money to honor her as a parent.

Li waved his hand: "Okay, okay, this matter ends here, old man, help your daughter-in-law to rest in the room." It's just been noisy and noisy just after I came back, and if you don't have a family, turn around, you go over and apologize to your sister and brother-in-law, and the matter will be over. The family always has to live in harmony, and you will have to help more in Fucheng in the future. ”

Shen Xi thought to himself: "My grandmother's heart is really biased, and now it is clear that your daughter framed us, and now let us apologize to your daughter and wife?" What kind of crooked reasoning is this? Just because she is long, my father and my mother are young? ”

In the old lady's heart, the etiquette is greater than the sky, and the most basic one of the etiquette is orderly.

This is also the reason why Shen Mingjun and his wife are always bullied, because Shen Mingjun is the eldest at home, and the son he gave birth to before is also a young son.

Shen Xi said: "Grandmother, it's obvious that my aunt is lying to my mother, how can we apologize?" ”

Li said with a straight face: "Qilang, in the past, grandmother thought you were very sensible, but now it seems that you have indeed grown up and know a lot of things, but sometimes you don't pay attention to the occasion." Anyway, your aunt and uncle are also your elders, are those words just now that you should say as a junior? ”

This seems to be a complaint, but the Li family's favoritism towards Shen Xi is obviously better than for his son and daughter.

In the Li family's standards, whoever has the ability and can help Shen Jiaxing has the right to speak, which is even above the orderly etiquette of the young and the old.

Although she has always pinned her hopes on her eldest son Shen Mingwen, but now Shen Xi is terrifying, with Shen Xi's attainments of passing the house at the age of ten to try the first case, the future will definitely not be under Shen Mingwen, the Li family attaches great importance to this grandson, so much so that she did not stop Shen Xi from refuting in front of the elders just now.

Or Yang Ling and his wife also saw that Shen Mingjun's family had contributed the most to the silver sent to the family, and secondly, Shen Xi had a future and might have great achievements in the future, and their husband and wife had no conclusive evidence to prove that the Zhou family was hiding a small treasury outside, so they could only give up first and go back to think about it in the long run. Otherwise, the old lady would not have made decisions for them.

Shen Xi respectfully admitted his mistake: "What my grandmother taught me is that my grandson remembers." ”

Li nodded with a smile and said, "Good grandson, live up to your grandmother's love for you." After a while, Rokuro will come back from school, and you will learn more from him and teach him well. ”

Because Shen Xi is now more "capable" than Liulang Shen Yuan, this makes the status of the two brothers at home drop one by one, the old lady used to like Shen Yuan more than Shen Xi, but now the old lady is very cold to Shen Yuan, even if Shen Yuan is also a genius at reading, so he was also called by Mr. to make up classes at home during the Chinese New Year, in order to be able to participate in the county exam as soon as possible.

Or in terms of reading alone, Shen Yuan's talent may be even higher than Shen Xi, after all, Shen Xi has accumulated more than 20 years of knowledge, and Shen Yuan is starting from scratch.
