Chapter 275: Jiang's Grievances
After the guests left, Su Shen said to Meng Hao the news he heard today while washing and changing, "... Master Shen was clamoring to take a concubine for Shen Feng, but Shen Feng was unwilling, and his mother was also resolutely opposed, Master Shen couldn't save face, and kept saying that he wanted to go back to the old house of the Shen family in Ninghai County. ”
Meng Hao was speechless for a while, "Aren't Shen Feng and his wife still very young?" How could he have expected that this little couple would not be able to have a son? ”
"How could he have expected that his son would not be able to have a son, he disliked his daughter-in-law for giving birth to two daughters in a row." Su Shen didn't have a good impression of Master Shen, and he said to Meng Hao: "Of course, he doesn't just dislike Shen Feng's wife who only has a daughter. Since Shen Feng became a jinshi, Master Shen has been a little disdainful of his daughter-in-law's life experience. In addition, Bao's simple boy was favored by the Xinping County Royal Mansion and recruited as the fast son-in-law of the East Bed......"
Meng Hao pursed her lips, "Isn't it when he begged someone to marry a daughter?" It's only been a few years, and he is so snobbish that he is not afraid of others poking his backbone! ”
Su Shen nodded in agreement, "Who said it wasn't." Fortunately, Shen Feng's mother and son have a conscience, otherwise Shen Feng's wife will not have a good time in the future. ”
The advantage of the mother's identity and status is gone, and the father-in-law is a snob, plus the two children born in succession are all daughters, if it weren't for the husband's intimacy and mother-in-law's understanding, wouldn't this girl be sad in the future?
Meng Hao sighed, "Mrs. Shen is originally a sensible person, plus her current daughter-in-law is also her cousin niece. ”
"If it weren't for the fact that the parents of the girl were looking at her face, it would be impossible for them to marry their good daughters to a merchant family like the Shen family with a group of wives and concubines."
"Now that her son has a chance, her husband jumps to his feet and dislikes his daughter-in-law, if she, an aunt, doesn't help protect her, then she won't have the face to see her cousin in the future."
Su Shen patted Meng Hao on the shoulder, "Fortunately, we didn't release our previous suspicions with Master Shen, a person like him, in the future, we will still be the same as before, as far away as possible." ”
Meng Zhen and Su Shen agreed, "I will." You can rest assured. ”
The two of them had just finished Master Shen's snobbery, and the next day Shen Feng's wife had already taken her two daughters to the door of the Su family.
At that time, Meng Zhen was coaxing her two children to have lunch, and when she heard Yaya say that Shen Feng's wife suddenly came to the door, Meng Zhen hurriedly handed over the children to the nurse to take care of.
glanced at the clothes on his body, and found that he could barely meet guests, Meng Zhen immediately took the two girls out to greet him.
Although their family has always maintained a very long distance from Master Shen, they have frequent contacts with Mrs. Shen and Shen Feng's family.
Shen Feng's wife, Jiang Shi's eyes were red, and the moment she saw Meng Hao, the girl's tears suddenly fell.
She couldn't help herself cry, but wiped her tears and motioned for the nurse to take her two children to play with the Su family's dragon and phoenix fetus.
Seeing her like this, Meng Hao couldn't say that her two children were eating, she asked the hosta to accompany the two children, and then told Yaya to go to the kitchen to spread the word, "Go and let Sister-in-law Guo make some more easy-to-digest egg custard and send it to me." ”
The maid left in response, and Meng Hao took Jiang's arm and took her to a side room a little far away from the small flower hall.
This wing room is usually used by Meng Zhen to take inventory, and it is clean, concise and generous.
Meng Hao asked Jiang to sit down in the warm room, and then asked someone to bring her a pot of honeysuckle tea.
By the way, Meng Hao also asked people to quietly send a letter to Shen Feng, who was still working in the yamen.
When all the people left the house, Jiang Shi hugged Meng Zhen coldly, whimpering and crying.
Meng Hao was so frightened that she almost didn't jump directly on the spot, and after calming down, Meng Hao didn't rush to persuade or ask.
She patted Jiang's back and cried happily at Jiang's.
Fortunately, Chiang's emotional outburst did not last long.
Like her, a standard ancient official lady who has been taught women's morality and etiquette by her mother since she was a child, and killing the Su family and crying with Meng Zhen in her arms is already an excesses after being greatly wronged.
Bound by the rules and regulations in her bones, you just want her to be a little more out of line, and she can't let go of herself.
Wiping away her tears with the clean handkerchief Meng Hao handed her, Jiang Shi held Meng Hao's hand and poured her own bitter water with her in a low voice.
Only then did Meng Zhen know that Shen Qin's vicious femme fatale had actually reappeared.
Because of the hatred that Master Shen and Mrs. Shen married her to other places, when Shen Feng got married, Shen Qin only asked people to bring gifts, and he did not show up under the pretext of "a long distance".
Although Mrs. Shen responded to Shen Qin's yin and yang weirdness, Shen Qin couldn't come, and to be honest, Mrs. Shen really didn't care too much.
But as Shen Feng continued to forge ahead on the road to the imperial examination, Shen Qin had the heart to become intimate with her mother's family again for the sake of her own vital interests.
Especially when Shen Feng became a Jinshi and became a Shujishi, and the Shen family moved their family to Beijing, she couldn't sit still at all.
Shen Qin knew that Mrs. Shen and Shen Feng had no good impression of her, and she also knew that Shen Feng's wife was Mrs. Shen's maiden niece, and Mrs. Shen was naturally on the same vine, so there was no chance for her to play tricks and provoke the relationship between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Shen Qin, who provoked Shen Feng's wife and let her and her mother-in-law fight against each other, had no hope at all, and her brain directly moved to the level of dividing the relationship between Shen Feng and Jiang's husband and wife.
In her mind, Shen Feng no longer needs to rely on the power of the Yue family now, he is already a Jishi, as long as he is a good official, it is not impossible for him to enter the cabinet and worship the prime minister in the future.
And what about Shen Feng's wife, Jiang?
Her maiden father is still just a small county magistrate.
At his age, he is afraid that this is all he can do in his life.
In the future, the Jiang family will have to rely on Shen Feng to carry and take care of him.
I have to say that Shen Qin really deserves to be Master Shen's most beloved baby girl, and her brain circuit is simply like Master Shen's.
Not only are the father and daughter exactly the same snobbery, but they are also exactly the same lack of proportion.
It is outrageous enough for Master Shen to be a big man who wants to take a concubine for his son, but Shen Qin, a foreign-married girl, actually went to Beijing to give a woman to his brother-in-law.
She sent two women, one was her husband's distant cousin, and the other was her nurse's youngest daughter.
Her husband's distant cousin's parents died young, and the girl begged for a living in the clan as a child.
Since it was Shen Qin's parents-in-law who cared for her the most, when Shen Qin thought of looking for a candidate, the first thing she thought of was her husband's distant cousin.
