Chapter 63: It's all for the sake of the Sheng family's reputation
On the way back, Shen Yu thought of a countermeasure, she knew that there would definitely be many people who said that she sent people to the provincial hospital. Even in the era of medical insurance, hospitals are not places where ordinary people can consume at will, let alone the Republic of China, which now relies entirely on self-payment? She could predict how much it would cost to cure the full cub, and she knew that the eldest lady's heart would never allow her to spend so much money.
"It's not because you're Kefu and Kezi, otherwise there would be so many messy things tossed out!" The eldest lady snorted twice, turned her head and didn't look at Shen Yu, "Since you want to save that child, don't leave the Sheng family's account, you can go out by yourself!" ”
"This is natural, the Sheng family has been tossing and turning recently, and I can't bear to let the Sheng family add more wear and tear, so I asked Hexiang to marry the child to see a doctor early in the morning." Shen Yu agreed happily, but the eldest lady had nothing to say.
"Okay, okay, we really can't die without help." Mrs. Sheng also didn't approve of Shen Yu saving the child, but felt that what Shen Yu said was right.
Here, the Sheng family just said that they would make other people's children their stepsons, but they gave up the children because of the child's illness, which is really unreasonable. However, is it really feasible to send it to a large hospital in a provincial capital?
Mrs. Sheng has spoken, and others naturally won't say anything. After Shen Yu finished asking for peace, she came out of Heshoutang and went to Fuyunju, sat cross-legged on the bed and thought for a long time, and finally couldn't help but pull Hexiang over to ask.
"Hexiang, how much dowry do I have."
Shen Yu really can't be blamed for this, she doesn't have much memory of inheriting the original owner, so she naturally doesn't know how much property she has.
"Poof, young grandmother, you don't even know about it?" Hexiang was happy when she heard it, but she was relieved when she thought about it. "Also, the young grandmother is fostered in the Shen family, and the Shen family can take as much as she wants, and she doesn't dare to ask more."
Shen Yu originally wanted to explain to Hexiang with an excuse, but she didn't think that this kid would figure it out by herself. I saw that she went to Shen Yu's makeup box with her hands and feet to get a list, and then opened it in front of Shen Yu.
"This is the young grandmother's dowry list, young grandmother, you have to remember it, otherwise what will you do if you lose it when you turn around."
He Xiang obviously hadn't looked at Shen Yu's dowry list either, but after she moved the candle flame, she sat quietly on her foot, not caring at all. Shen Yu didn't let her go, and pulled her over to see it together, "Come on, help me take a look, in the Shen family, I'm not familiar with you." ”
Before Shen Yu got married, she lived alone in the small courtyard of the Shen family, and she never went out, even the maids and servants in the house were rare, and it was normal not to know. But Hexiang is different, although she is a maid, she can get in touch with things outside, and she is still a little bit more than Shen Yuzhong.
The two lit the candle flame and watched the dowry list slowly study. In addition to the necessary tea, silk and daily necessities, the Shen family gave Shen Yu an additional 10,000 oceans for a dowry, as well as a hundred acres of paddy fields, and there was nothing left. 10,000 oceans looks like a lot, but in fact it's not much. According to the serious Miss Shen family, in addition to money, there are also fields and shops.
However, Shen Yu is not a serious lady after all, is she?
Shen Yu didn't fight for these things, after reading them, she put them away, thought about it and took the box that Sheng Yanming left for her. At the beginning, Xie Changli handed over these boxes to her, and she had never used them, but now that she has praised Haikou in front of the eldest lady to save people, she must first see how many catties and taels she has.
After taking an inventory of all her belongings, Shen Yu felt that she might be a rich woman.
The Shen family's dowry to Shen Yu has 10,000 oceans and 100 acres of paddy fields. Sheng Yanming left 20,000 oceans, a house in the provincial capital, and 500 acres of paddy fields. Qingshui Town is located in the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, which is a typical water town in the south of the Yangtze River, most of which are paddy fields. Where are these 600 acres of land, Shen Yu doesn't know. But there is no hurry, Sheng Yanming also left someone for herself, and when it is time to collect the rent, Xie Changli will definitely send her the money.
Now, she is still thinking about how to save the cubs.
Seriously, modern medical technology is so good that there is no way to really cure smallpox, let alone the current medical conditions? Shen Yu worried all night, and the next morning, she asked Hexiang to go to the provincial capital with the money to find Xie Changli in person, and brought some notebooks and food to the child.
When Hexiang came back in the evening, Shen Yu carefully asked about the situation of the cub.
"It's going to burn for a while, but I can still recognize people when I go, and I heard Steward Xie say that the situation is better, but I was locked up and couldn't meet, which made Grandma Mancub very anxious." Hexiang said it 1510, and then talked to Shen Yu about the good things she saw in the provincial capital with great interest.
"Miss, haven't you seen a kind of tram running on the street of that provincial city, jingling bells, but it's scary. However, there are a lot of people sitting on it. ”
"There's another thing called a car, and I haven't seen it jet, but it's so fast that it can actually seat people inside."
Shen Yu listened to them one by one, smiled but didn't speak, and when she finally quieted down, she said, "Don't be envious, when the baby is discharged from the hospital, let's pick him up together." ”
Listening to Shen Yu's words, Hexiang instantly became happy and jumped at her several times.
Because of the illness of the full cub, the succession ceremony will naturally be postponed. Before he was discharged from the hospital, Sheng Yanqing came back first.
Sheng Yanqing went to Xiangxi this time, there are many Miao girls there, I heard that the girls there are bold and unrestrained, and many people came over with the intention of listening to the news, to see if Sheng Yanqing brought a daughter-in-law back.
"I'm still wondering why you can bring a daughter-in-law when you come back, why did you come back empty-handed!" Old Lady Sheng smiled and joked for the first time, but when she saw Sheng Yanqing's face as usual, she didn't mind at all.
"Although the Miao girls are delicate and cute, they rarely run the tea business. Besides, I'm here to talk about business, not to see girls. ”
Sheng Yanqing said with a righteous face, but people couldn't detect any clues.
"Grandmother, Xiangxi is rich in silverware, I heard that the reason why the old people there are healthy is because they try to wear silverware, and my grandson came back this time and brought you a set."
As he spoke, Sheng Yanqing asked the little maid to bring a set of silverware to Mrs. Sheng. Old Mrs. Sheng couldn't help but be happy when she looked at the set of bright silverware, "This kid has a heart, I also went to Xiangxi with your grandfather when I was young." At the time, I thought the silver on the girls' heads was beautiful, but your grandfather said it was too gaudy and didn't buy it, but now my grandson has brought it back. ”
