Chapter 15: Big Brother is so good

Shen Mingzhen and Mrs. Sun ate in the pavilion every day, and they always changed their tricks, and soon attracted Mrs. Shen over.

"Didn't you say that there was no money to spend, why are you and your mother still eating delicious food?"

"Is that what Grandmother said?" Shen Mingzhen lifted the roast chicken in her hand.

The skin of the chicken was soft and fragrant, and the old lady Shen couldn't help but swallow her saliva.

"The money was sent by the uncles, and some time ago Mingzhen made money, so he mailed some silver tickets to the uncles. At present, the uncles know that it is not easy for Mingzhen and her mother, and they also mailed us some silver tickets.

Does grandmother still have any problems? ”

Old Lady Shen shut up.

Although I don't know if this is given to them by Mrs. Sun's two uncompetitive younger brothers, but Shen Mingzhen said this, how embarrassed she was to say that she also wanted to eat such a delicious meal.

The old lady glanced at Shen Mingzhen meaningfully: "You have good things, don't you know how to honor your grandmother?" ”

"Grandmother is wrong, when Mingzhen's shop is still there, she sends money to her grandmother's yard every day. Grandmother had six dishes and one soup at the beginning, but all the money was Mingzhen's silver, how can it be said that Zhen is not filial.

If it weren't for the fact that the shop was gone, my grandmother would still be in fine clothes and food at the moment. ”

Old Mrs. Shen and Aunt Lin stopped talking.

Shen Mingzhen saw that Aunt Lin took advantage of their inattention and secretly took away a sauce duck from the cabinet.

A small amount of poppy powder was added to the sauce duck by Shen Mingzhen, and eating it was addictive.

After eating this sauce duck, they will know how tempting the food really is.

You know how wrong you are.

Shen Mingzhen said that she was not so easy to mess with.

After resting for a week, Shen Mingzhen went to the store to take a look.

The walls of the shop had been refurbished and plastered, and they were waiting for her empty.

Shen Mingzhen didn't want to do preserved fruit business anymore, and was thinking about it for a long time, when she received a letter from her senior brother.

He gave her a book detailing how to make pills for many ailments, and told her that if she didn't want to open a dried meat shop again, she could sell some pills.

He has already tried all these pills, there are no big problems, and he can sell them with confidence.

Shen Mingzhen agreed.

The cost of pills is very low, and you don't need to invest another amount of money yourself. In addition, with her uncles' dried fruits, she can do two businesses at the same time.

Shen Mingzhen asked the craftsmen to divide the shop and the courtyard into two rooms, selling pills on the left and dried fruits on the right.

After it was done, she asked people to invite a group of maids.

Master Shen knew that Shen Mingzhen had reopened, so he specially came to Mrs. Sun to sit here.

These days, he has been ashamed of the Sun family because of Mrs. Shen, and he doesn't dare to come to the Sun family to sit here. Now that he knew that Shen Mingzhen was back in his old business, he was a little relieved.

He looked at Sun's good face and patted her hand: "This time, my mother can't stand you." I thought about it, the yard where my mother lives is too big, so it's better to separate a part of it for Mingzhen. In this way, she can dry medicinal herbs and dried fruits in her yard, which will also help her business. What do you see? ”

Shen Mingzhen's yard is indeed not big, and she lives in the small courtyard of the two, and the people live in it, so there is not much space.

Mrs. Sun agreed.

Probably because Old Man Shen gave a warning in advance, this time even Old Lady Shen didn't say anything.

Shen Mingzhen didn't let people fence off the courtyard wall, and the yard between her and Mrs. Shen was only separated by some sharp shrubs.

Shen Mingzhen said that now the Shen Mansion has no money, so it can save a little.

She got a word of praise from Master Shen.

Old Mrs. Shen was uncomfortable. She sat in the house every day, and she could smell the fragrance from Shen Mingzhen's yard, the smell of food, and the smell of expensive incense and clothes.

When Mrs. Shen was sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun, she could see Shen Mingzhen's silk skirt hung in the courtyard, inlaid with gold and silver threads.

It was shiny, and her eyes hurt.

She simply stopped coming out and sulked with herself in the room.

It's a terrible time now. Shen Mingzhen has food and drink over there, and she and Aunt Zhu haven't eaten meat for more than half a month.

Since the last time she came back with a duck at Shen Mingzhen's place, she missed the taste of meat very much.

Old Mrs. Shen looked at Aunt Zhu, who missed meat as much as herself: "Why don't you go and borrow some silver for your mother to satisfy her hunger?" ”

Aunt Zhu smiled: "Mother, where can I borrow money from you, my mother wants to eat meat, and I want to eat it too, but it's just ...... I really don't have any money. ”

Aunt Zhu thought for a while: "Why don't you go and secretly take some meat to my mother next time Shen Mingzhen eats?" ”

"Okay." Mrs. Shen reluctantly agreed.

When Shen Mingzhen ate again, Aunt Zhu stayed by the side very early, looking at a large meal on Shen Mingzhen's table, salivating beside her.

finally waited for Shen Mingzhen and Mrs. Sun to have dinner, and she took the oilcloth paper to wrap the mutton and donkey meat that Shen Mingzhen and Mrs. Sun had not used a few bites. Aunt Zhu secretly ate a few bites before returning to the old lady's yard: "Mother, this is the meat that Shen Mingzhen and Mrs. Sun haven't eaten much, you can taste it." ”

Mrs. Shen asked the maid to cut a few pieces of meat for herself and chewed them in her mouth, looking satisfied.

Shen Mingzhen sent her mother back, thinking of the dishes left over by herself and her mother, and thinking that the maids in the store were afraid that they would not eat these expensive foods often, so she went back to get them.

When I walked to the gazebo, I saw a mess on the table.

The lamb and donkey meat that were barely touched were taken by someone on the fire.

She shook her head and went back to the restaurant next to the store to buy a point for the maids: "You have worked hard during this time, I specially bought some delicious food for everyone to beat." ”

The maids thanked them repeatedly.

It's just doing chores in the yard, and it's hard to get there. Mademoiselle was so nice to them.

Shen Mansion, Old Lady Shen was full, and lay down on the collapse with a satisfied face. When she was young, she also helped her family manage the business, and over the years she married into the Shen family, her life became more and more comfortable, and she gradually forgot those things in the past.

knew the money that Shen Mingzhen earned by opening a store.

Thinking of the suffering she had suffered these days, Mrs. Shen became more and more unwilling, she took out a box from under the bed, and took out a pair of blood-red bracelets in the box: "This bracelet was given to me by my mother when I got married, and it is worth a thousand taels of silver."

Old lady, I am not in good health, and I can't eat such meals every day.

I thought about it, why don't we use this silver as the capital and secretly open a store. ”

"However, didn't the imperial court let the officials compete with the people for profit?"

"What are you afraid of, even Shen Mingzhen knows to open a store and write other people's names, why can't we. Don't I have a cousin in my mother's family, so I will use his name to buy a field and a store. ”

"So, what business are we doing?"

Needless to say? The old lady glared at Aunt Zhu: "Of course it's a restaurant." ”

The old lady still has the ability to choose a store, and her restaurant is open on the edge of the imperial city.

Every morning, officials would go to court from here one after another, and then come out of the imperial city at noon. The people who live next to it are either rich or expensive, and they often need to be entertained, and the flow of guests is very large, so it is not a problem at all.

The old lady deliberately decorated the hotel magnificently, and spent half of the silver on the decoration alone.

After the renovation, she invited eight chefs to cook at the same time, and made a new store opening, and all the drinks were halved within three days, and there was an endless stream of people who came to eat.

But the problem soon appeared, Aunt Lin's cousin knew that the store was booming, and because this store was her name, she asked Mrs. Shen to give her a profit of 30%.

Mrs. Shen and Aunt Zhu scolded him: "We work hard every day to open a store, you don't do anything, and you still want to make a profit?" Give you a profit, and you will be content. ”

Where is the profit enough to spend?

Aunt Zhu's cousin knew that Mrs. Shen and Aunt Zhu had all their money in this store, and they wanted to make trouble with them, so they hired a group of people to keep the store door open every day and not let people in.

For three days in a row, the wine, meat and vegetables in the restaurant were rotten because of the weather.

Aunt Zhu begged him: "Cousin, it's not easy for me and my mother. We are together, if the restaurant is not good, you and I will not be able to benefit, don't you say? ”

The eldest cousin thought for a while: "Then I only need two percent of the profit?" ”

Aunt Zhu thought for a while: "Okay." ”

At the same time, Shen Mingzhen's dried fruit shop sold particularly well.

This time, her uncles mailed her some more, such as dried lychees, dried pineapples, dried oranges, dried mangoes, and other snacks.

These dried fruits arouse a lot of curiosity.

It sold out quickly.

Before the uncles could send over the remaining dried fruits, Shen Mingzhen's fruit shop was already empty.

She had nothing to do, so she asked Zisu: "What are the old lady and Aunt Zhu doing these days?" ”

"It's like, it's opening a restaurant. used the name of Aunt Zhu's eldest cousin. ”

Shen Mingzhen spit out a sip of wine.

Isn't the old lady very high-spirited and bright on weekdays, why has she also joined the road of Shangjia now.

As for Aunt Zhu's eldest cousin. Who doesn't know that this eldest cousin is a good gambler, because of good gambling, he still hasn't married a daughter-in-law. Fortunately, although this eldest cousin is a good gambler, he always gambles a little money every time, and he has been living so-so all these years.

The old lady and Aunt Zhu probably took a fancy to this eldest cousin who was alone, and they could let them handle it, so they dared to open a store in the name of this master.

None of this is her business, though.

Shen Mingzhen hadn't checked Mrs. Sun's pulse for a few days, so she simply closed the store and returned home.

"Aren't you good at selling some pills?"

"After all, it's a pharmacy, and the demand is not as great as that of snacks, but all in all it is not bad." Shen Mingzhen withdrew her mother's wrist: "Have you felt dizzy and swollen recently, and you want to vomit these symptoms?" ”

"Yes, there are some."

Mrs. Sun touched her stomach, as if she had thought of something, and blushed: "Some time ago, your father had to come to me to stay overnight, but I really couldn't stop him, so I kept him for one night." You say, it can't beβ€”there you have it. ”

Shen Mingzhen chuckled in her heart.

The month is too small to see at the moment.

However, she still made all the preparations, not only threw away all the things in her mother's yard that were not suitable for pregnant women, but also instructed the cook that in the future, only hot dishes should be served to her mother's yard, and those cold foods were not allowed.

In December, Mrs. Sun showed her arms.

Shen Mingzhen was afraid that her medical skills were not good, so she specially invited a famous doctor to diagnose her mother's pulse. The old doctor had been diagnosed for a long time, and looked at Mrs. Sun with a smile: "Congratulations, Madame, there are two twin children in your house." By the time of next year, Lord Shen will be able to add two lively children. ”

Master Shen smiled and sent the doctor out.

came in and took Mrs. Sun's hand: "Madame has worked hard." I remember your favorite pear juice gummies, you are so waiting, I'll buy you two or three catties back. ”

"Father." Shen Mingzhen stopped him: "Pears are cold and not suitable for mothers." ”

Master Shen scratched his head: "Yes, why don't I even know this, look at me." He smiled awkwardly.

Now that Mrs. Sun is pregnant, Master Shen feels that since they are two twins, he should buy some auspicious gifts for Mrs. Sun, and care too much about Mrs. Sun in terms of clothing, food, housing and transportation.

But Aunt Zhu has already squandered most of his money, how can this be good.

He hesitated for a while, and said to Shen Mingzhen very embarrassedly: "It stands to reason that my father shouldn't ask for your silver, but you also know that my father hasn't gotten his hands on this month's money, and now Shen Mansion is in trouble, and your mother is pregnant again......

Mingzhen, you can borrow a little silver from your father, I want to buy some good things for your mother to make up for her body. ”

Shen Mingzhen was a little moved.

But he didn't really take out the money to help his father.

"Doesn't my father know that my grandmother and Aunt Zhu have opened a shop near the imperial city, and business is booming right now.

Since it is my grandmother and Aunt Zhu who owe us, my father might as well take it back at this time. ”

"That's fine." Master Shen nodded.

He didn't expect that he would become the poorest person in the Shen family.

But because of reason, he was really embarrassed to ask Shen Mingzhen for money again.

After all, he owes too much to this daughter.

Master Shen wiped the sweat from his head, called the little servant, and came to the restaurant opened by Mrs. Shen and Aunt Zhu.

It was afternoon, and there was no one in the restaurant.

Mrs. Shen was eating melon seeds in the private room upstairs with Aunt Zhu, and when she saw Master Shen coming, she beckoned happily: "Son, you are here."

Mother hasn't seen you in days.

Why do you have time to come to Mother today? ”

"Don't hide it from my mother, Mrs. Sun is pregnant, and the doctor said that she is still a twin.

The son thought, this is a happy event for our Shen family.

It's just that the son has some difficulties in his hands, so he wants to borrow some money from his mother to buy some supplements for Mrs. Sun to nourish qi and blood. ”

Although Mrs. Shen couldn't get used to Mrs. Sun.

But there was no need to go against his unborn grandchildren, and he took the money very happily.

In the past few days of opening the restaurant, I have earned a total of more than 300 taels. She took out more than a hundred taels and handed them over to Master Shen very happily: "You take the flowers first, if there is no one day, come to my mother to get it again." ”

What he said moved Master Shen very much.

Aunt Zhu listened to it very unpleasantly.

At the moment, there is only one boy in the Shen Mansion.

If Mrs. Sun gave birth to two boys and was the sister-in-law of the Shen family, the property of the Shen family would not eventually fall to Mrs. Sun in the future.

When the time comes, my children will have nothing, how pitiful.

Now that Master Shen no longer favors herself, if she doesn't even have the advantage of "Shen Mansion only has a son", what should she do when she gets old.

Aunt Zhu secretly hoped that Mrs. Sun would not have a son left.

It is better to be stillborn, one corpse and two lives.

But where should we start to make Mrs. Sun's baby appear again and again?

If a pregnant woman does not have a good birth, her health will always be bad.

Aunt Zhu made up her mind to cut off Mrs. Sun's nutrition first.

But Mrs. Shen felt so sorry for her unborn baby grandson, what should she do?

At this time, a little maid hurriedly came up: "Old lady, Aunt Zhu, it's not good, Aunt Zhu's eldest cousin owes money in the gambling house, and he led people to the restaurant to ask for money." ”

"How much do you owe?" "It's not a lot, I heard it's twenty taels."

It's less than one percent of his dividends.

Aunt Zhu waved her hand absentmindedly: "Give it to him." ”

The little guy took the order.

She leaned back on the soft couch and an idea suddenly came to her.

Although she can't control the business in Shen Mingzhen's shop for the time being, on the old lady's side, she can always find a way to call the shots.

At present, the title deed and deed of this restaurant are her eldest cousin's, if she and her eldest cousin collude and control the disposal of the restaurant, where will the old lady get money for her grandson?

Just do it, that night, Aunt Zhu asked her eldest cousin to the cellar of the restaurant.

The eldest cousin had a piece of grass in his mouth and looked at her nonchalantly: "What's the matter?" ”

"Don't you love to gamble, it's not a matter of always owing people money, you are now the third shopkeeper of our restaurant. Do you want to gamble freely from now on? ”

"Of course I want to, I dream of it."

"Then listen to me, you go and threaten the old lady with the deed and title deed to get her out of the restaurant.

The old lady doesn't have any evidence in her hand, so she can't do anything about you. She could only obediently go back to the Shen family.

At that time, I will be in charge of the restaurant operation, and the money I earn, you will be half and I will be half, how good. ”

"Will this work?"

"What are you afraid of, I've been in charge of the restaurant for more than a month, have you ever seen me make a mistake?" Aunt Zhu was a little weak-hearted.

The eldest cousin was obsessed with his gambling money.

It didn't take long for me to agree.

"Okay, then I'll go to the old lady's place tomorrow to make trouble, and you will pretend not to avoid it tomorrow."

Aunt Zhu agreed.

The next day, she excused herself from the restaurant for abdominal pain and waited diligently at home for news.

Mrs. Sun's belly was big again, and she was so angry that she couldn't even eat lunch.

Finally, the old lady returned.

As soon as she entered the house, she called Aunt Zhu over and scolded her eldest cousin for not being human: "I even sold my last piece of jewelry to buy this restaurant." When he saw that you were not there, he scolded me in front of many diners and forced me to get out of the restaurant.

If it weren't for my son's reputation in officialdom, why wouldn't I be able to step down like this?

What will we do if we run out of money in the future?

Every good thing for Shen Mingzhen's mother and son. Aunt Zhu, you say, do we still want to continue to eat cabbage leaves? ”

Aunt Zhu frowned and looked very worried.

"Mother, don't worry, he's my cousin after all.

In the past few days, I have found time to talk to him and see if he can get back together with his mother. "Then she can go to the restaurant in the name of it.

The old lady nodded: "Please, Qiaoyun." ”

Aunt Zhu is not as good at business as Mrs. Shen.

Fortunately, when the old lady ran the restaurant before, she had accumulated a stable source of customers. Aunt Zhu painted the cat and the tiger, and the old lady Shen's management method managed the restaurant, although the business was not as good as when the old lady was there before, it was not bad after all.

She made the first money, and in order to highlight her ability, she specially called her eldest cousin over, and the two of them shared the profits of the restaurant equally.

The eldest cousin got one hundred and eighty taels and ran out of the restaurant at a fast speed.

also released a word, if you win money today, you will buy a bracelet for Aunt Zhu to come back.

Aunt Zhu was not idle, took the money, and went to the pharmacy next door to buy a large piece of inferior musk.

Back at the Shen Mansion, he sneaked into Mrs. Sun's yard and buried a large piece of musk under the big tree where Mrs. Sun often enjoyed the shade.

She thought she was doing something unaware.

However, Shen Mingzhen is a professional practitioner of medicine, and when she was resting with her mother, she relied on her keen fragrance to find that piece of musk.

It is a blood-red color, which is different from normal musk.

It looks like it was produced in a small workshop.

There are only three or four pharmacies in the capital that sell small workshop production.

Shen Mingzhen asked one by one, and finally found the store: "What is the person who comes to you to buy musk?" Do you always wear a pink dress and a mole on your ear? ”

The store knows Shen Mingzhen.

It's easy to sell this favor to her: "I can't remember if there are any moles, and I seem to be wearing a rose-red dress." ”

Shen Mingzhen nodded.

Who else can there be, there is no doubt that it is Aunt Zhu.

framed her so many times, and even hit her mother's head with the abacus, Shen Mingzhen was a little angry.

Forget about it on a regular basis.

Her mother is now pregnant with two twins.

If you don't get it right, it's one corpse and two lives.

Aunt Zhu is really ruthless.

She knew that Aunt Zhu and her eldest cousin were running a restaurant, and secretly revealed the news she had found to the old lady. Old Madam Shen was a little surprised: "Really? Did they really do this behind my back? ”

Shen Mingzhen nodded: "Grandmother doesn't know yet."

It doesn't matter if you know whether you know it or not, as long as your grandmother asks her to go to the store and deliberately makes excuses that she wants to talk to the owner about business, don't you know if what her granddaughter said is right? ”

Old Mrs. Shen was silent.

Behind his back, he deliberately let a distant relative who served his grandmother run away.

learned that when Aunt Zhu was secretly operating behind her back, she was very angry.

Since the other party dares to play yin behind his back, then don't blame yourself for being unkind.

I have been very good to their mother and daughter for many years, and if there is anything good, I thought about Aunt Zhu and Shen Mingzhu's mother and daughter first.

Besides, that restaurant was bought with my own money.

Why did Aunt Zhu sit back and enjoy it.

Mrs. Shen was so angry that she wrote a letter to her nephew.

When Aunt Zhu's eldest cousin entered the gambling house, he felt that the boss looked at him differently.

He didn't care.

The child in the gambling house shouted at the table over there: "Buy big or buy small?" I'm going to buy it. ”

The eldest cousin's ears rolled three times, staring at Xiao Er: "Buy small, I'll press five taels of silver." ”

In fact, the number of dice in this hand is large.

Xiao Er quietly dialed the points into small, and said to the eldest cousin with a smile: "You are really lucky, it is small." ”

The next few handfuls, the big cousin won today.

Xiao Er was polite to him: "You are so lucky today, didn't you step on shit and get lucky with shit?"

Do you want to play big? ”

A few other gamblers shouted at him: "Yes, do you want to play big, wait for you to make a lot of money in a while, but remember to invite a few of us to dinner." ”

"That's right, you have good luck today, just play big, maybe you can make money for your wife."

The eldest cousin was praised for his flattery.

Gritted his teeth and agreed.

Xiao Er hurriedly invited him to a private room.

"This master, do you think we are playing a thousand taels or two thousand taels today?"

The eldest cousin was a little embarrassed.

That's too big, isn't it?

The people watching the excitement on the side have already blocked the water around the single room.

The person on the other side looked at Tan's hesitant expression and opened his mouth to slanted: "What's wrong?" Everyone says you're the elite of casinos, why don't you dare now?

Are you betting or not? If you don't bet, you will get out, and if you don't have money, you will come here to pretend to be an uncle. ”

The eldest cousin gritted his teeth: "Charge." ”

How do you know that the other party bet 10,000 taels.

……

After a gamble, the eldest cousin felt that he had been designed.

Who would have gambled 10,000 taels of silver?

In casinos, it's always a lose-one-lose-two.

He had to pay 20,000 taels of silver.

Twenty thousand taels of silver, where did he find it?

The other party didn't give up: "Don't you still have a shop?" We've calculated that your shop will be mortgaged to us, and you will lend us another 10,000 taels of silver, and the account will be settled."

The rules in the casino, if you don't pay the money, you will be cut off your hands and feet.

It is precisely because of this that the eldest cousin has never dared to make a small fuss. I didn't expect it to be my turn after all.

I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet.

But he didn't want to be chopped off.

The eldest cousin broke out in a cold sweat on his head and took people to the restaurant.

Aunt Zhu didn't expect him to bring a large number of people, so she hurriedly asked him, "What are you bringing so many people for?" ”

The eldest cousin crossed her, walked to the secret room of the restaurant, and handed over the title deed and the house deed to the group of people with a blank face.

When the other party left, he shouted at him: "Is this your daughter-in-law?" Hurry up and pay the ten thousand taels of silver that are owed to us. Otherwise, I will sell your daughter-in-law and send you to work as a coolie in a black coal mine for the rest of your life. ”

Aunt Zhu understood: "I'm not his daughter-in-law, don't misunderstand, big brothers." ”

When the group of people left, she sat on the ground and punched her eldest cousin to vent her anger.

Well, now she has nothing.

Nothing.

Why is God so unfair to himself?

Aunt Zhu sat on the ground and wanted to cry without tears.

The eldest cousin is even more uncomfortable, what can I do, that is, he has ten lives, and he can't earn 10,000 taels of silver in his life.

I don't know a single big word.

There is probably no hope for the rest of my life.

The eldest cousin thought of death.

He looked at Aunt Zhu. My cousin is very well maintained, although she has gained weight after giving birth to a child, her appearance is still enchanting.

The eldest cousin thought that it would be good to satisfy himself before he died.

He dragged Aunt Zhu to the secret room and closed the door.

Aunt Zhu stomped and screamed.

Aunt Zhu returned to the Shen family late at night.

It seems to have cried, and there are faint slap marks on his face.

It was she who was disobedient and was beaten by her eldest cousin.

Seeing a group of little guys staring at her red face, she wanted to cover up: "My cousin is in debt today." He bet you know, my cousin owed a little too much money this time, and he was a little upset and hit me unexpectedly.

Fortunately, he was unintentional. ”

Guys: ......

If Aunt Zhu hadn't had to stay and talk to them so much, they wouldn't have noticed Aunt Zhu's beaten face.

After all, the lights are blind, and she came back late.

Aunt Zhu returned to Shen's house and cried all night holding the quilt.

The big cousin, that bastard, tortured her all day. If it is discovered by Master Shen......

Aunt Zhu didn't dare to let Master Shen find the bruises on her body, so she hurriedly took out the snow muscle cream, and under the pretext of bathing, ran behind the screen and applied it carefully.

In Mrs. Shen's courtyard, the grandmother who was serving beside her had already told Mrs. Shen that Aunt Zhu's eldest cousin owed a lot of debts.

Old Madam Shen played a fan and didn't say a word.

This Aunt Zhu is really wolf-hearted.

It seems that in Aunt Zhu's yard, the mother and daughter are not good things.

It's just that since Aunt Zhu can't rely on it anymore. What will she do in the future?

Old Madam Shen is old after all, and someone will have to take care of her in the future. After all, Master Shen is a male dependent, so he can't wipe and groom her as a mother. Old Madam Shen thought that it might be time for her to ease the relationship with Sun's mother and daughter.

In fact, Sun has always been gentle, and after marrying, he also respected her very much.

If she hadn't been too harsh on the Sun family back then, she wouldn't have had to be-for-tat with herself.

It's all self-inflicted.

Old Madam Shen thought that in the future, she would slowly cultivate her relationship with the Sun family and Shen Mingzhen, and I believed that she would always come back.

How can a family have a deep hatred.
