Chapter Seventy-Four: A tree is not afraid of no firewood

The second lady looked at Shen Yu with ill intentions and giggled, "Now that Yan Ming is gone, you have to honor your mother-in-law for him, of course, I know that you have a great ability, hook up with this and that, if you can add a son and a half daughter to the Sheng family......"

"What nonsense are you talking about!" The eldest lady took a step forward and said angrily, "Shen Yu is the daughter-in-law of my big house, and it is not your turn to intervene as a shrew in the affairs of our big house." Besides, Xu'er is the grandson admitted by the old lady, this is the eldest grandson of our Sheng family, you don't want to fight the Sheng family's property again. ”

"It's you, now that Xinyue can't give birth, the Xu family may not hate you, you have this spare time, let's settle your daughter-in-law in the second room first."

The second lady glanced at the eldest lady proudly, "Xinyue can't give birth, it doesn't mean that other women can't, are we afraid that there will be no firewood if we have a tree in the second room?" It's your big house, the tree is gone, even the roots are broken, no matter how much you baby Sheng Jinxu, he is a step-by-step child, and his heart is towards outsiders! ”

"You...... You shrew! "The eldest lady is the most taboo about others mentioning Sheng Yanming, but now the second lady is using this matter to ridicule her, she suddenly became angry, blood gushed up on her head, and her face turned red.

The second lady rolled her eyes, laughed loudly and walked away.

Shen Yu was worried about the eldest lady's body, and asked with concern: "Mother-in-law, I'll let someone send you back first, the sun is rising at this time, and the sun is big." ”

The eldest lady shook off Shen Yu's hand disdainfully, pointed at her nose and scolded: "You still have the face to stand here, killing my son and causing me to lose my middle-aged son." It's all because you're useless, and you can't even keep Yanming's son and half daughter. ”

Shen Yu stood aside with her hands down, she didn't say anything, in the matter of Sheng Yanming, the eldest lady's prejudice against her was deep-rooted, and no matter how much she explained, it was in vain.

Seeing that Shen Yu was angry for no reason, Hexiang couldn't help but whisper, "Miss, Hexiang doesn't like what she said, the eldest young master of the Sheng family is really right, knowing that his body can't support it and still marrying, he is angry on the wedding day, and you are widowed in vain, and you haven't even seen the groom's face." ”

"If the young lady and the eldest young master had become husband and wife at that time and had a child to rely on, our life would not be so difficult."

Shen Yu glanced at Hexiang, her eyes were deep.

What Hexiang said, she didn't think about it, but on the other hand, if she and Sheng Yanming had a husband and wife, it would be impossible for her to be with Sheng Yanqing.

When you think about it, being a newlywed widow is not necessarily a bad thing.

Back in Fuyunju, Shen Yu was worried about Xu Xinyue's body, and sent Hexiang to send some supplements.

She said, "It's normal for there to be some small friction between concubines, they are all women, and I won't fall into a hole at such a time." ”

He Xiangxin was reluctant, thinking of the mean face of the second lady Song Baoqin at the door of Heshoutang today, she muttered: "Miss is kind-hearted, I hope others don't take this kindness seriously." ”

"You, duplicitous, don't tell me you didn't secretly inquire about the situation in the second room." Shen Yu glanced at Hexiang.

"I didn't!" Hexiang hugged the tonic and ran away.

On the night of Xu Xinyue's premature birth, Shen Yu and Hexiang witnessed the whole thing. Shen Yu knew in her heart that Hexiang was a knife-mouthed tofu heart, and she also cared about Xu Xinyue's situation.

A few days ago, it rained heavily, and the clothes and bedding were damp, Shen Yu was tidying up the clothes in the room, and the afternoon passed quickly.

After the rain, the tea leaves had to be dried again, and Shen Yu was busy with the affairs of the tea shop these days, and she didn't have time to have dinner with Sheng Jinxu.

Tonight, she specially asked the kitchen to make beef soup and a few side dishes that Sheng Jinxu loved to eat, and set up the dishes and chopsticks early, waiting for Sheng Jinxu to come back from school.

He Xiang went to the eldest lady to pick up someone, Shen Yu waited for a long time, but saw He Xiang come back with a drooping face.

"Where's Young Master Xu? Is the eldest lady embarrassed you again? Shen Yu asked with concern.

Hexiang nodded and shook his head, and organized the language for a long time before he said: "It's Young Master Xu who skipped school, and the gentleman from the school has found the eldest lady here." ”

As a child of the Sheng family, studying is the first priority, Sheng Jinxu was arrested for skipping school, and his fault was indeed his.

Shen Yu was slightly taken aback, "Impossible, Xu'er is so obedient, how could he skip school for no reason?" There must be something hidden in this matter. ”

Shen Yu picked up her skirt and left, it was actually nothing for children to play, she was worried that the eldest lady would be harsh on Sheng Jinxu and blame her too harshly.

Sure enough, when I arrived at the eldest lady's residence, I heard the eldest lady's reprimand from a distance.

"You are not motivated, I kindly fished you out of the poor pit, delicious food and drink for you, let you study, and look forward to your getting ahead, you are good, three days of skipping school, even the gentleman of the school is alarmed, where does our Sheng family's face go!"

"Do you really think you are the young master of the Sheng family, a young master, let me tell you, there are many children who want to come to the Sheng family, you don't want to, some are others."

Shen Yu frowned, Sheng Jinxu was just a four-year-old child, but the eldest lady used this kind of words to talk about him, what kind of shadow would this leave in a child's heart.

She pushed the door in, and Sheng Jinxu was kneeling in front of the bookcase in the back room, and the eldest lady was holding a rattan in her hand and pointing at his head.

Angry, the eldest lady pinched Sheng Jinxu's arm fiercely.

Sheng Jinxu's white little face was full of tears, and he couldn't hold back his tears.

Shen Yu couldn't stand it anymore, she stood in front of Sheng Jinxu, and reasoned with the eldest lady, "Mother-in-law, if you have something to say, Xu'er has always been well-behaved and obedient, and this matter is definitely not what you think." ”

The eldest lady rudely wanted to push Shen Yu away, "Mr. Xuetang has found me, no matter what, his truancy is a certainty." You get out of the way for me, I discipline our Sheng family's children, what does it have to do with you? ”

Shen Yu turned around and hugged Sheng Jinxu, protected his small body in his arms, and argued: "Mother-in-law, even if it is true that Xu'er skipped school, he is only four years old, and it is nothing to be a little playful, so he can't make a little mistake and move the whip, right?" ”

"Even you dare to contradict me?" The eldest lady is even less angry, "Didn't you listen to what the shrew in the second room said about us, they are not afraid of having no firewood to burn if they have trees, our big house, even the roots of the tree are gone!" It's easy to get a child from outside, he is not motivated, and the Sheng family's family business will fall into the hands of that cheap child sooner or later, is this just as you want? ”

The slut in the doctor's mouth is Sheng Yanqing's biological mother.

Shen Yu complained for Sheng Yanqing, she met the eldest lady's gaze without fear, and said coldly: "Sheng Jinxu is under the name of Yan Ming, I am his mother, you discipline my child, shouldn't you ask me if I agree to be a mother?" ”
