Shen Qingyi's temper has always been good, and he rarely gets angry, even if he encounters unreasonable things, he always deals with them calmly.

He knew that his mother was sometimes a little arbitrary, but his mother had always been for his own good, not to mention that his mother at that time, for the sake of filial piety, he would never contradict his mother on weekdays.

But today he really couldn't bear it anymore.

After all, his mother was too aggressive, and all kinds of ridicule of Ji Yanning made people a little unbearable.

When Mrs. Shen heard Shen Qingyi's voice, she looked at him with some incredulity: "Are you yelling at me?"

Shen Qingyi rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly, and said, "Now that Miss Ji and I have withdrawn, my mother should not be so malicious towards her anymore." ”

Mrs. Shen looked at Shen Qingyi and said, "Why do I have ill will towards her? It's just that I want to withdraw from my family, and I have tried my best to suppress my words." ”

Shen Shangshu opened his mouth and said: "Sister-in-law, although Miss Ji may not be suitable for Qingyi, at least she is a member of the Liu family, Liu Shilang's grade is only one level lower than mine, and he has been in the court for many years, and he is not a simple person, so don't hurt the harmony." ”

Although his tone was gentle, he could hear that he was still a little dissatisfied with Mrs. Shen's actions just now.

Mrs. Shen had been living in Cangzhou before, without the pressure of her mother-in-law, her husband left early, and no one would be dissatisfied with her words and deeds, so she developed such an arbitrary and arbitrary character, and she became more and more ignorant.

When I was in Cangzhou, the Shen family was a local scholar clan, and everyone would take a look at the Shen family, and there was Shen Qingyi, a son who was more outstanding than ordinary people, who made Mrs. Shen forget to do it in the praise of others, and now that she has come to Chang'an, she doesn't know how to converge, but she is afraid that she will offend a lot of people.

Although the Liu family does not need the Shen family, Liu Mu cannot be underestimated.

When Mrs. Shen heard Shen Shangshu's words, her eyes moved slightly, obviously feeling a little unconvinced, but she was a woman, where could there be people in the officialdom who had the ability to see, although she felt that the Liu family couldn't make any waves, but looking at Shen Shangshu's expression was not good, she could only restrain a little.

"It's because I didn't think it through, and I shouldn't have said Ji Yanning's in front of the Liu family. Mrs. Shen lowered her eyes and said, "It's just the second brother, I only have such a son, I have so much, I just want to be better for him, if I marry a merchant girl, what use can I do for his career?"

Shen Shangshu saw that although Mrs. Shen was soft, she was still unwilling, he sighed secretly in his heart, looked at Shen Qingyi, and said, "Since the family affair has been withdrawn, don't think about it anymore." ”

Shen Qingyi lowered his eyes and did not answer.

Shen Shangshu patted him on the shoulder, and then walked out of the hall.

Shen Qingyi looked at Mrs. Shen and said, "Mother, this is not Cangzhou, it's Chang'an." ”

Mrs. Shen said, "Are you disgusting your mother? I'm not doing this for you!"

The reason was explained, Shen Qingyi was extremely upset in his heart, and then said: "It's good if my mother thinks it's good." ”

He bowed, then walked straight outside.

"Yi'er!" Mrs. Shen shouted at his back.

However, Shen Qingyi walked out of the courtyard as if he hadn't heard.

The grandmother beside Mrs. Shen stepped forward and said to Mrs. Shen: "Madam, don't be angry, sooner or later, the young master will understand everything you have done for him." ”

"I didn't expect Yi'er to have such a deep affection for Ji Yanning's girl. Mrs. Shen was angry when she mentioned Ji Yanning, and said, "It seems that I have to choose a real family affair for Yi'er as soon as possible, otherwise I will let Ji Yanning's girl worry about it, and I don't know what Yi'er will do!"

Mama said: "Madame is right. ”

Listening to Mama's words, Mrs. Shen felt more and more that this matter could not be delayed.

An Shi, who came back from the Shen family, had a very bad face.

It's the first time in so many years that she's been beaten like this.

Although Liu Mu's official position is not very powerful, at least he is also a four-grade waiter, and he is with other officials and wives on weekdays, even if she doesn't want to see her, she won't be so unhappy to herself in person.

Ji Yanning is not in front of her, isn't he just slapping her in the face!

"I knew that the eldest lady of the Shen family was such a person, she shouldn't have responded to this family business in the first place!" An Shi returned to the Liu family, still feeling angry, and said to Liu Mu, "What's wrong with our Yan Ning, it's clear that Shen Qingyi himself posted it upside down, and he can still blame us!

Liu Mu looked at An Shi with an angry face and gently patted her back.

"Okay, don't be angry. Liu Mu comforted her and said, "It's not too late to find out now, this family business has already retreated, and it's a big deal not to interact with the Shen family in the future." What's more, now that Yan Ning has found a better person, he should be glad to be. ”

An Shi listened to Liu Mu's comforting words, and his anger disappeared a lot.

Yes, the emperor gave marriage, and Yan Ning was going to become the princess of Zhun Xuan, of course, better than the Shen family.

If it weren't for the fact that the holy decree hadn't come down now, An couldn't leak secrets indiscriminately, how could she swallow her anger in the Shen family.

What to say and what not to say, An's is still clear.

An said: "I'll go to see Yan Ning and let her know that she is happy to withdraw from her family, I thought that Yan Ning was ignorant and angered the eldest lady of the Shen family, but now it seems that it will definitely not be Yan Ning's fault." ”

When Liu Mu heard her say this, he chuckled.

Now in the eyes of the An family, the eldest lady of the Shen family is wrong for everything.

"My wife is as discerning as a torch, and she can see it most clearly. Liu Mu said.

An Shi glanced at him with disgust: "Just you can speak." ”

After being coaxed by Liu Mu for a few words, An's was already angry, and asked the kitchen to make some exquisite pastries and took them to Ji Yanning's yard together.

An went to find Ji Yanning, but he didn't say anything about his unhappiness with An, but just told her that the relationship with the Shen family had been withdrawn, so don't worry.

In the future, even if you don't have anything to do with the Shen family, it doesn't matter.

Ji Yanning has many eyes and ears, so she naturally knows what is going on in the Shen family, with Shen's mother here, it is a matter of time before she withdraws from her family, and she is not surprised.

It's just that I feel sorry for An's and suffer from Shen's mother's anger.

During his usual days off, Jing Yuan would read books and review the papers handed in by the students in his house.

Today's sunshine is good, looking at the sunny weather, Jing Yuan originally planned to go to the mountains for a walk and relax.

It's just that when he was just about to go out, the boy next to him came with a message, saying that someone asked to see him.

Jing Yuan said to the boy: "I usually don't see guests when I am on vacation, if the students come to look for me, let them wait until tomorrow to go to the school." ”

The boy replied, "Sir, he is not a student of Egret Academy, he said that he came here for a friend surnamed Ying. ”

Jing Yuan was slightly stunned and said, "Where are the people now?"

"Just wait at the door. The boy said.

Jing Yuan put down the things on hand and said, "Please let him in." ”

The boy bowed, then walked towards the door, and saw Ying Wenxu standing there.

"This son, our husband invites you in. The boy bowed his hand and made a gesture of please.

Ying Wenxu bowed slightly, and then walked into the house.

The place where this house is located is very remote, few people will come on weekdays, the alley is a little narrow, not suitable for carriage aisles, and the average large family will not choose the address around here, so this place is rare and quiet.

Although the house is not big, it has planted a lot of flowers and herbs, and it can be seen that this yard is carefully taken care of by the owner.

Under the guidance of the boy, he came to the main hall of the house, where Jing Yuan was already waiting.

Ying Wenxu stepped forward and saluted and said, "The junior has seen Mr. Jingyuan. ”

Jing Yuan's eyes looked at Ying Wenxu in front of him, and saw that his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to the original eldest son of the Ying family, so he believed what he said in his heart.

"No need to be polite. Jing Yuan said to Wen Xu, "Sit down." ”

Ying Wenxu sat down on the chair beside him as smoothly as he could.

The boy served tea to Ying Wenxu, and then retreated.

Jing Yuan took a sip of tea, looked at Ying Wenxu, and said, "I don't know what to call Gongzi?"

Ying Wenxu said: "In the next place, the surname is Ji, and the name is Ji Wenxu. ”

When Jing Yuan heard Ying Wenxu's words, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the person in front of him, not only was his appearance similar to that of the eldest son of the Ying family, but he could indeed match Ying Wenxu at this age.

If the baby who is more than 20 years old is still alive, he will probably be at this age.

Jing Yuan said: "I don't know why Gongzi came this time? Since Gongzi has spent more than 20 years of life safely, I feel that I should stay away from disputes between right and wrong and live a good life." ”

When Ying Wenxu heard Jing Yuan's words, he naturally knew his intentions, which was nothing more than to let himself not get involved in the affairs of the year.

"In fact, this time, I asked for something. Ying Wenxu looked at Jing Yuan.

Jing Yuan raised his eyes and asked, "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Ying Wenxu said: "I heard that more than 20 years ago, the Ying family was beheaded all over the house, and it was Mr. who collected their bones and buried them, I want to know, where are they buried?"

"The man is dead, and it doesn't matter where he is buried. Jing Yuan said, "You don't have to worry about it anymore, after all, you were still in your infancy back then, and you don't have to worry about these things." ”

Ying Wenxu listened to Jing Yuan's words, his eyes moved slightly, he stood up, bowed to Jing Yuan seriously, and said: "Mr. should be the great kindness of the family, I should keep it in mind, but blood is thicker than water, and some things don't exist if you don't mention them." But rest assured, sir, I will not do anything immeasurable now, but I just want to bury the bones of a family member with everyone else, so that she will not be left alone. ”

"The bones of the family?" Jing Yuan's heart jumped and looked at Ying Wenxu, "I don't know who this family member you are talking about?"
