Chapter 73: Shen Nianci's Broken Boat
"I know." Shen Nianzhen nodded.
She turned her head sideways and looked at her father, who was kneeling in front of Mrs. Shen's hospital bed, motionless and guarding, and her eyes were slightly red.
In this matter, there is also Shenshen.
"Miss." Mama Zhou hurriedly walked in from outside and reported: "The second master is being detained in the west courtyard, but he keeps making noise, saying that he wants to see the old lady!" ”
Shen Nianzhen immediately became angry: "If it weren't for him and his good son, how could my grandmother become like this!" Dare to make trouble? Serve directly with a big stick! ”
"No, it's better not to have extraneous branches at this juncture."
Shen Yunlan waved his hand, turned to Mama Zhou and instructed: "Second uncle rushed all the way back to Beijing from Xuzhou, and made a fuss until now, he must be hungry, Mama instructed the people in the kitchen to send him some food, add some sleeping medicine, let him sleep well for a night, and talk about what to do when someone from the clan comes tomorrow." ”
His tone was sven, as if he was discussing the article with someone, but the words he said were unceremoniously.
Mama Zhou was overwhelmed with emotion when she heard this, and nodded again and again: "Yes, young master, the slave maid will go and order." ”
After saying that, he turned around and stepped back.
Shen Nianzhen couldn't help but let out a sigh, only to feel very tired.
And tomorrow, there's a whole bunch of things to take care of.
"Don't worry too much." Shen Yunlan patted her on the shoulder and said, "Grandmother will wake up soon, she won't blame you for this......"
"I'm not worried about that." Shen Nianzhen shook his head lightly when he heard this, and then said, "I just hope that when the family separates tomorrow, there will be no accidents, except for our Shen family, no outsiders will interfere......"
"Who's going to meddle in this?" Shen Yunlan asked a little strangely when he heard this.
Shen Nianzhen looked at him and asked, "Big brother, do you remember the family members who were beaten to death by the second cousin and made a big fuss at the door of Shen's house?" Did you find out who was behind that? ”
"Not yet, I've been investigating for a long time, and the person behind the scenes is very hidden, and there is no clue at all." Shen Yunlan's eyes flashed when he heard this, and said, "You mean, that person behind the scenes may interfere in the matter of tomorrow's separation?" ”
"I'm just guessing, not sure."
"Okay, I'll take care of it." Shen Yunlan said in a deep voice.
The next day, the Shen family separated.
invited the elders of the Shen clan, as well as a few important ministers of the court who were good friends with Shen Chong, to witness this major event, and the old lady Shen did not say in public that the second master had stolen her dowry, but only announced in public that she would not recognize the son of the second master in the future.
"Mother! How can you be so ruthless! ”
Second Master Shen was crying in front of everyone's eyes, he was really sad and sad.
The only backer is gone, how can I live in the future!
Old Mrs. Shen was also very sad, after all, she was the son who had been in pain since she was a child, and seeing him end up like this, her heart hurt like a pinprick.
But she knew that once she continued to protect the second child, it was possible to drag the entire Shen family to the funeral together.
She would never allow that to happen!
"What should be said, my wife has finished speaking, if you still have any opinions, just mention them to your clan elders!" Old Lady Shen said expressionlessly, and slowly stood up after speaking, not looking at the crying second child, only staring at Shen Chong, and said in a complicated tone: "Regardless of whether you are separated or not, the three of you are all brothers, and you have broken bones and tendons, so you must help each other!" ”
"Mother, my son understands." Shen Shen emphasized.
Mrs. Shen was reassured, and the last trace of worry was gone, so she slowly looked back at her second son who was crying like a lost dog, and slowly went to the inner room with a cane!
"Mother!" The second child trembled and pounced, trying to grab the hem of her skirt, but she pounced.
Soon, he was helped up by the clan elders, and the patriarch Shen Yue said earnestly: "I knew why I had to do it today!" Come on, come on, sit down! See how this home should be divided ......"
The Shen family's hometown is far away in Xuzhou, the old lady Shen died early, and there was nothing left, the old lady Shen has a lot of dowry, but for more than a year, most of them have been squandered by the second master, so this time the family was separated, the old lady Shen did not take anything out, and finally Shen Zhong took the land deed that he had accumulated over the years, and gave the two brothers some land and shops.
"Big brother, this is too little, right?"
The second master was very dissatisfied when he saw the dozens of acres of fertile land allocated to him and a shop.
Shen frowned, and was about to speak, when the clan elder on the side coughed lightly, and said with displeasure: "Shen Pei, this year in Shangjing, you have made a lot of money, made friends everywhere, and spent a lot of silver taels, right?" Is all this money your own? The old lady didn't say it, it was to give you face, don't know what to do! ”
"I ...... I ......"
When the second old man Shen Pei heard this, his face was red for a while, white for a while, and he was very uncomfortable.
But what the clan elder said was the truth, in the past year, he asked Shen Zhong for what his brother wanted, and he came from the third child, and secretly turned the old lady's treasury upside down with his daughter-in-law's convenience, and the valuable things in it were almost looted. Today's Grand Commander's Mansion is just an empty shell, and there is not much money in it.
Divide it, divide it! Anyway, he already has everything he should have.
Thinking like this, Second Master Shen was silent.
The clan elder turned his head again to ask the third master's opinion.
Shen Yu didn't wait for him to speak, so he said lightly, he didn't want the shop and land assigned to him, they had already purchased another house and property, and they would move out soon.
"Third child, you don't want those farm shops, you can give it to me!"
The second child's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he was about to pick up the deeds with a smile, but when he stretched it out, he was beaten hard by the clan elder.
"Oops! Why are you beating me! ”
The second master almost blurted out the three words of the old bald donkey, but fortunately, the words came to his mouth and swallowed them hard.
The clan elder glared at him fiercely and said, "These things were all taken out by the boss himself and distributed to the two of you!" Don't be the third child, return to the Lord from Angelica! What do you want! ”
"What is given, how can there be a reason to take it back......" the second old man sneered.
Shen Yu, the third old man, who had been silent, finally spoke: "Those things were originally from the eldest brother. ”
The second master was finally speechless.
So there was no objection, and the separation was settled.
The patriarch wrote the paperwork, asked everyone to press their fingerprints, and went to the government to prepare the case, and then left with a thank you gift under a heavy thank-you gift.
"Big brother, I'll go pack my things first, and when I move home, I invite you over to have a housewarming banquet."
Shen Yu said goodbye to the third master with a smile, and then led the family back to pack their things.
Shen smiled and answered, looking at the direction of the upper room with complicated eyes, the door was closed, and I didn't know what the old lady was thinking in the room.
"Big Brother ......"
The second master, Shen Pei, stepped forward with a smile, pretending to be pitiful as in the past: "Big brother, I really don't have any money, I can't buy a family business in a prosperous place like Shangjing, your nephew Yunqi is seriously ill, if it is delayed, I am afraid that it will ......"
There was a bang, and the door to the upper room opened.
Mama Zhou walked out of it, stood on the steps, and said, "Don't worry about the second master, the old lady has already sent someone to Xuzhou to pick up the second son the day before yesterday, and there is a doctor who spent a lot of money with her, and the second son will definitely be fine." ”
"Really? In the end, my mother still loves me! ”
Shen Pei was surprised and delighted when he heard this, wiped his tears happily, and finally raised his head, looked at Mama Zhou cautiously, and said, "I heard that the eldest niece knows a miracle doctor who is very good at medicine, if he rescues her, Yun Qi will definitely be able to turn the corner!" I don't know ......."
"Second uncle's wishful thinking is really good."
Shen Yunlan walked in from outside, and said sarcastically: "It's a pity that my sister invited that Doctor Ge to enter the palace to treat Concubine Qi's illness, and now the person is in the palace, if the second uncle has the ability to get people out of the palace, then you can go." ”
This meal is even sarcastic and sarcastic, how can Shen Pei not hear it?
was ridiculed by a junior, and he was very embarrassed.
"Presumptuous! How did you talk to your second uncle! Shen Pei suddenly turned a cold face and looked at Shen Zhong with a sneer: "Big brother, this is the good son you educated?" So disrespectful? ”
"He's telling the truth."
Shen said slowly: "That Doctor Ge enters the palace every day to see Concubine Qi's mother, it is true that not everyone can see it, and there is no other place to go to Beijing, why do you have to worry about who to invite?" ”
"I'm not...... I think it's my own family! ”
Shen Pei said uncomfortably: "I thought I could borrow the light of my niece and daughter to treat Yun Qi well, but since the eldest brother is unwilling, then forget it, whether it is dead or alive, it is Yun Qi's life......"
After saying that, he shook his head and left.
Shen Zhong was almost angry with these words.
What does it mean that he is unwilling? It's obviously the doctor in the palace, who has the courage to invite it?
"Dad, relax your heart, don't be angry." Shen Yunlan reached out and patted him on the back, lowered his voice and said, "Grandmother is watching in the house!" ”
Shen Zhong frowned tightly when he heard this, calmed down, and went to the room to say goodbye to the old lady.
However, the old lady did not let him into the house for the first time.
"Commander, go back first, the old lady said she wanted to be alone for a while." Mama Zhou picked up the curtain and came out, standing on the steps and saying.
Shen Zhong looked into the room, but through the layers of curtains and screens, he couldn't see anything.
"Okay, you serve your mother well, and if you need anything, let someone tell me at any time." He nodded, turned and slowly left.
Shen Yunlan went to Liuzhen Pavilion.
As soon as he sat down at the stone table under the grape trellis in the courtyard, Shen Nianzhen led the picturesque slowly walked in from outside, and there was no trace of joy on his face.
The brother and sister glanced at each other, and they both saw a trace of deep helplessness in each other's eyes.
"In the past, I thought that my grandmother loved my father and second uncle the most, but now it seems that ...... Everything is overthought of by me. Shen Nianzhen smiled bitterly and said, "The second uncle's family can stay in Beijing, not because of me, nor because of my father, but because of my grandmother." ”
There was bitterness in his tone.
Shen Yunlan sighed and said, "Don't think about this, let's discuss how to deal with the matter of the second sister." ”
Shen Nianci? What's the trouble again?
Shen Nianzhen raised his eyebrows.
"The Hou Mansion of Zhenbei seems to know about Lu Yiming and Shen Nianci hooking up, there will be a move in the next two days, and we must move quickly."
"Already know?"
Shen Nianzhen blinked his eyes: "My brother is right, the initiative in this matter must be in our hands, if the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is allowed to take the lead, they will put all the charges on Shen Nianci!" When the time comes......"
"It won't be that serious, we're separated after all." Shen Yunlan said slowly.
"After the family is separated, the surname is still Shen." God said the truth: "Therefore it must be stopped." ”
But before he could come up with the safest solution, something happened.
……
Zhenbei Hou Mansion, outside the gate.
There were a sea of people, countless people watched, there were guests who came to watch the wedding ceremony today, and there were also people who came to see the excitement, all of them stared at a delicate young girl standing outside the gate of Beihou Mansion in that town.
"Isn't this the concubine in the second room of the Shen family? How are you standing here? What's going on? "There's a lot of talk.
"Today, the prince of Zhenbei Hou and the daughter of Zhao Shilang's family are hired and married, this is to make trouble!"
"Second Miss Shen and the Hou Shizi of Zhenbei really have a deep relationship!"
"My sister-in-law married my brother-in-law as a concubine, what kind of trouble is this going on?" As soon as these words came out, everyone burst into laughter.
Shen Nianci stood in front of the gate of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, and these discussions came into her ears without dropping, her face was slightly pale, but she held her chest high, without a trace of timidity.
His hands, but unconsciously, stroked his lower abdomen.
This gave her great courage.
As soon as the door opened, the housekeepers in the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei rushed out, and then Mrs. Lu walked out of it with a gloomy face, looked at Shen Nianci who was stubbornly standing at the gate of the mansion condescendingly, and said unceremoniously: "Second Miss Shen, our Lu family and the Shen family have retired from family affairs, and you are no longer my son's side room, why are you still standing in the way here?" The daughter's family, does it have to be so faceless and skinless? ”
"Mrs. Lu, please accumulate virtue in your mouth."
Shen Nianci trembled slightly, but the words he said were extremely clear: "I was ruined by Lu Shizi's reputation, and I can only wronged myself to marry him as a concubine as the daughter of the Shen family, what mistake did I make, you have to cancel the marriage contract for no reason!" I'm here to ask! ”
"Second Miss Shen, do you want me to be so embarrassed?"
Mrs. Lu didn't expect Shen Nianci to have the courage to talk to her, and she didn't let it go! Is this the woman who has come to beg to come into their house? It's so hateful!
She spoke mercilessly: "Why did our Lu family withdraw from the marriage? Isn't it because you are misbehaving and frivolous? It's really not worthy of marrying into our Lu family, we are afraid of ruining our reputation, so we have no choice but to withdraw from the marriage, you are a concubine, and there are no three media and six hires, saying that the divorce is really elevating your identity! ”
"Am I frivolous? Mrs. Lu, why don't you talk about your son! ”
Shen Nianci's whole body trembled angrily: "If your son hadn't ruined my reputation in the first place, would I have come here to make a fuss today?" ruined my life, but wanted to climb another high door and throw me away, where is such a good thing! Your Lu family is so amazing! ”
"This seems to make some sense, Miss Shen Er seems to be forced to be in a hurry......"
"Yes, the rabbit bites when it's in a hurry, and the Lu family is really mean......"
Hearing everyone's discussions, most of them were sympathetic to Shen Nianci, Mrs. Lu suddenly became anxious, and said angrily when she heard this: "Originally, our Lu family could swallow this dumb loss and let you enter the door as a concubine, but yesterday your Shen family broke up!" Your eldest brother killed someone, and your own father was demoted, what qualifications do you have to marry in? ”
As soon as these words came out, the surroundings suddenly fell silent.
People finally remembered what Shen Yunqi had done before, this person in the second room of the Shen family, not to mention the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, even ordinary people don't want to marry him.
"In this way, what Mrs. Lu said also has some truth......
Shen Nianci was anxious, and shouted loudly: "Mrs. Lu! You call Lu Yiming out! Let him come and see me in person! ”
It turned out that yesterday, after Lu Yiming came out of the small courtyard where the two people lived, he never went back, and today the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is a beautiful Shilang Mansion, Shen Nianci couldn't swallow this breath, so he personally came to Shen's house to make a fuss.
She's not happy, and she's definitely not going to make anyone else happy!
"Second Miss Shen, why are you doing this?" Mrs. Lu let out a long sigh, as if she was sorry, and said helplessly: "Originally, our Lu and Shen families were good friends, there is no need to make things so embarrassing, I gave you face, why don't you just leave, with Shen Er's girl, your flower and moon appearance, you can choose a good family affair again......"
"Mrs. Lu! Don't be pretending to be here! ”
Since Shen Nianci came to the door today, she was holding the heart of breaking the cauldron, hearing this, she already understood that it was impossible for the Zhenbei Hou Mansion to let herself enter, and when she heard this, she raised her chin slightly, and said word by word: "Tell you the truth!" I already have Lu Yiming's flesh and blood in my stomach! If you Lu family marry me, or not, I will definitely give birth to this child! ”
"What? Child? Already pregnant? Oh my God......"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding people immediately talked about it, and all of them showed shock.
"It seems that these two people have already secretly communicated with each other before......"
Mrs. Lu's face instantly turned black as the bottom of a pot, staring at the shameless Shen Nianci, and said tremblingly: "You, you are an unmarried daughter, you say such things in public!" What a shame! ”
"Am I the only one who knows no shame?" Anyway, she had already torn her face, Shen Nianci simply ignored it, and retorted loudly: "Can I get pregnant by just me?" Isn't all this Lu Shizi's fault? ”
Mrs. Lu couldn't bear it anymore, so she stretched out her hand and slapped Shen Nianci in the face!
"Smack!" The crisp sound instantly shocked everyone present.
Since Shen Nianci was sent to Zhuangzi, she couldn't eat well or sleep well during this time, she lost a lot of weight, standing there like a pear blossom on a branch that fell in the wind at any time, trembling, Mrs. Lu's angry slap instantly hit her and fell to the side!
"Ahh
