Chapter 638: Retirement (2)

Shen Shaozhou took Shen Zhan to the dock, and when he returned home, the housekeeper handed him a letter: "Master, it's from the capital." ”

Shen Shaozhou swept the letter and looked strange behind it. In the past, Qingshu would not write a letter to him all year round, so he wrote another letter half a month later. I don't know what happened to make Qingshu so anxious.

Shen Zhan saw him put the letter in his sleeve and asked, "Dad, why don't you read the letter?" ”

"We'll see."

Shen Zhan was a simple-minded person who didn't think much about it when he saw this, but said, "Dad, I want to go to the capital." ”

"What are you doing in the capital?"

Shen Zhan was very unhappy when he heard this, and said, "Isn't my brother going to the capital in the next two days?" What can he do, I can't. ”

Shen Shaozhou said with a cold face: "Your brother has something to do when he goes to the capital, what are you doing there?" ”

Seeing Shen Zhan's drooping face, Shen Shaozhou slowed down his tone: "Learn to do business with me, and I won't stop you from going wherever you want to go when you learn well." ”

With the case of the two Huo Yingwei brothers in the past, Shen Shaozhou didn't dare to let it go anymore.

After entering the study, Shen Shaozhou opened the letter and read it. As a result, the letter only said that he should go to the capital as soon as possible, and he had something important to say to him, but as for what it was, the letter did not write it.

Putting down the letter, Shen Shaozhou called his entourage: "Go and take the eldest young master here." ”

Shen Tao came over quickly.

Shen Shaozhou said to him: "Don't go to the capital, stay at home and take care of the family." ”

Shen Tao was a little surprised: "Dad, could it be that Qingshu doesn't want people over there?" ”

He has arranged everything and the itinerary, and will take a boat to the capital the day after tomorrow. Now he suddenly said that he didn't need to go, he must have something happened in the capital.

Shen Shaozhou shook his head and said, "No, I have something to do to go to the capital, and Li Qian and they will be taken to the capital by me." ”

Shen Tao couldn't help asking, "Dad, what's the matter?" ”

"You shouldn't know that."

The main thing is that he doesn't know what is going on, but of course he can't say this to Shen Tao. Otherwise, where is the majesty of being a father?

As a result, on the second day, the family had dinner, and the steward came over and handed a letter to Shen Shaozhou.

When Shen Zhan heard that it was a letter from the capital, he couldn't help but say, "Dad, it's Lin Qingshu's letter again, right?" Did she offend someone, otherwise why would she write letters every once in a while? ”

"Dad, we must not care who Lin Qingshu wants to offend."

Gu Xian's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly asked, "Master, has Qingshu written a lot of letters to you?" Why didn't you tell me about it? ”

Shen Shaozhou explained: "Qingshu wrote two letters, and the letter half a month ago asked me to pick a few guards for her; Yesterday's letter said that the girl of the Zhu family and the girl of the Feng family are going to get married, and they want some gemstones of good color to make jewelry. ”

Shen Zhan pointed to the letter in his hand and said, "Dad, what about this letter?" ”

Shen Shaozhou swept the envelope and said lightly: "This letter was not written by Qingshu. ”

Shen Zhan was not convinced: "Dad, how do you know that it is not Lin Qingshu's letter before you even read it?" ”

Shen Tao said on the side: "This letter is indeed not from Sister Qingshu, her words are more beautiful." ”

Shen Zhan said: "Maybe it's someone to write for ......"

The next words were all swallowed back into his stomach under Shen Shaozhou's gaze.

When Gu Xian heard this, she hurriedly urged: "Master, you quickly dismantle it to see if it is Qingshu's letter." ”

Shen Shaozhou was a little helpless, his son listened to the wind and rain, and so did his wife. However, several people stared at the letter in his hand, and he could only open it.

As a result, after reading the letter, Shen Shaozhou's face turned pale.

Gu Xian chuckled in her heart, and hurriedly asked, "Master, what is written in the letter?" It's really Qingshu who has an accident, who did she offend? ”

Seeing that he didn't speak, Gu Xian snatched the letter over, and then quickly browsed it at a glance.

Shen Zhan looked at the expressions of the two and said, "I'll just say that she's not a good person, and sooner or later she will cause trouble, and you still don't believe me......"

Shen Tao couldn't bear it, and said angrily: "Shut up, if you don't speak, no one will treat you as a dumb person." ”

Shen Zhan pursed his lips and whispered, "It's not up to people to say what she can do." ”

Although the business was small, several people present heard it.

Gu Xian came back to her senses and said, "No, this letter was not written by Qingshu, it was written by the prince of the Marquis of Xiangyang." ”

Shen Zhan's face was overjoyed when he heard this: "Really? Mother, what did you say above? Is it to discuss the date of the marriage with us? ”

Shen Tao had a headache, and he knew that something was wrong when he looked at his father's face. Ahem, how can there be such a stupid brother.

Gu Xian shook her head and said with pity: "The prince of the Xiangyang Marquis said in the letter that he wanted to quit his relatives with us. ”

Although it is a little unkind, it is better for Shen Zhan to withdraw from his relatives than for Qingshu to have an accident. After all, Shen Zhan is a man and his family is rich, so he doesn't have to worry about not being able to marry a daughter-in-law. On the contrary, Qingshu, if something happens to her girl's family, her life may be ruined.

These words were like a thunderbolt, which blew Shen Zhan up.

Shen Tao's face was not good-looking, and he asked, "Did the letter say why you quit your family?" ”

Gu Xian nodded and said, "The letter said that Miss Xu Jiu has always been in good health, but she has often been sick since she married Ah Zhan. Mrs. Xiangyang Hou felt that it was wrong, so she took the Geng post of you and Miss Xu Jiu and asked the senior monk to join it. The eminent monk said that you are not compatible, and if you want to become husband and wife, you will restrain each other. ”

Shen Zhan came back to his senses and scolded: "That old bald donkey is simply farting, and when I was in the eight characters before, the Dao Chang clearly said that I and Qingzhi were a match made in heaven." ”

Shen Shaozhou said with a cold face: "If the cow doesn't drink water, it can still be forced, even if they want to retreat, then retreat." ”

Shen Zhan was reluctant and shouted, "Dad, I don't want to quit my family." Dad, I want to marry Qingzhi, I have identified her in my life. ”

Seeing his unproductive appearance, Shen Shaozhou's face became more and more ugly, and he was about to take him back to the room with his entourage.

Gu Xian said: "Master, what now?" ”

Shen Shaozhou had a calm face: "It's okay to withdraw from relatives, but we must be given a reasonable explanation." ”

This family affair was the first to be brought up by the Xiangyang Hou Mansion, but they didn't rush to catch up. As a result, they have only been married for three months and have to withdraw from their relatives, playing with them!

Gu Xian hesitated and said, "Forget it, the Xiangyang Hou Mansion is not something we can afford to provoke." ”

Shen Shaozhou didn't answer this, but said: "I'm going to the capital tomorrow, and I have something to say to Ah Tao." ”

The father and son entered the study, and Shen Shaozhou said: "I will go to the capital tomorrow, and Ah Zhan will lock him up at home and not allow him to go out." ”

Shen Tao was stunned: "Dad, don't you take Ah Zhan with you?" ”

Shen Shaozhou shook his head and said: "This matter is not so simple, it will only be bad if he goes with his temperament." ”

After a pause, Shen Shaozhou said: "The letter from Qingshu the day before yesterday was not for me to buy gems of good condition, but for me to go to the capital, saying that I had something urgent to tell me." ”

At that time, he was very puzzled, thinking that there was something urgent that he couldn't say in the letter and asked him to go to the capital to say, but now that he thinks about it, it must be related to Xu Qingzhi.

Shen Tao hurriedly said: "Dad, don't worry, I will let people be optimistic about Ah Zhan and will not let him go to the capital." ”
