Chapter 114: Cousins

Cheng Shaomu waited for an hour before the steward came over and said, "The owner has sent the guests away, Uncle Cheng, please come inside." ”

"I'm tired." Cheng Shaomu said with a smile.

After waiting for an hour, there was no hint of impatience on his face, and he was still not in a hurry, very leisurely.

As for whether Shen Yue had any guests or not, he didn't care. Thinking about the last time he was in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, Shen Yue stroked his sleeves and left, and this time he let him in the door, which is also rare.

"Uncle Cheng, please come here." The steward led the way, but he couldn't help but pay attention to Cheng Shaomu's expression.

After waiting for so long, he can still be so calm and relaxed, this is old and successful, which does not match his age.

Cheng Shaomu followed slowly, smiling on his face, but the further back he went, his mood couldn't help but fluctuate a little.

Shen Xiu also lives here, and with Shen Yue's personality, I'm afraid that they won't be allowed to meet.

However, there is always an expectation in my heart. Although it is better not to see each other, he still wants to see him.

"Boss, Uncle Cheng is here." The steward came into the house and spoke.

Cheng Shaomu slowly entered the house and looked around, luxurious but not tacky, full of gold and silver antiques, but there was no sense of nouveau riche. The noble Shen family of the fifth generation, this taste really exists.

Looking up at the inside, I saw Shen Yue dressed in a homely style, and he looked very leisurely.

"Yo, the guests are here." Shen Yue smiled playfully, looking at Cheng Shaomu without a trace.

The family is ruined, and he has walked on the line of life and death, but he is not scared to pee his pants, his cousin is still a little capable.

"Long time no see, cousin." Cheng Shaomu said.

Shen Yue smiled and said, "This cousin is so good, I am so good at talking to you, sit down." ”

Cheng Shaomu sat down as he said, the little servant came up with tea, Cheng Shaomu took the tea bowl, and said, "I've been waiting for a long time, I'm really a little thirsty." ”

"Hah! ~~ You're complaining that you've been waiting for a long time. Shen Yue said.

Cheng Shaomu drank tea, put down the tea bowl, and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence that I came, and it just so happens that my cousin has a guest." ”

"You know about the Pingyuan Hou Mansion." Shen Yue went straight in.

Cheng Shaomu paused slightly, lowered his voice, and said, "I already know." ”

According to Princess Cheng, the defeat of the Plains Marquis Mansion was Shen Yue's handiwork, at least he was also involved.

Princess Cheng had no reason to lie to him, but what was Shen Yue's motive for doing this. Mrs. Cheng is really not very good to Shen Xiu, but this crime will not lead to death. Shen Yue doesn't seem to be a murderer.

"What do you mean by coming to me at this time?" Shen Yue asked directly.

Cheng Shaomu said: "I'm ashamed, I'm here to join my cousin." ”

"Haha......" Shen Yue laughed and said, "Your aunt is the prince of Yanwangfu, and your sister is the princess." Now you even said that you went to me as a businessman, are you going to laugh at me? ”

"My cousin only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other." Cheng Shaomu said: "My little sister has just married the prince, and she has a naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve personality, let alone take care of me, I'm afraid that I will be a good brother." As for the aunt...... With the honor of Princess Yan, how could she pay attention to a down-and-out poor relative. ”

"It's a good word, but it doesn't convince me." Shen Yue said, "Although I haven't been here for a long time since I first came to Qingyang, the name of Princess Cheng is like thunder, if she is really like what you said, I am afraid that she will not be able to leave now." ”

Cheng Shaomu smiled bitterly and said, "Sure enough, I can't deceive my cousin." ”

"Since you called me cousin, although this family affection is clearer than the river, it is always closer than outsiders." Shen Yue said, "Say, what are your plans?" ”

"Don't hide it from my cousin, my aunt really won't ignore me, she will take care of the follow-up of the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, and the rest of the family property will be given to me." Cheng Shaomu said, with a bitter look in his eyes, and said: "Even if I don't rely on my aunt, just relying on the remaining family wealth is enough for me to be rich and prosperous for the rest of my life." However, as a son of man, the death of my parents is not clear, how can I be this rich idler with peace of mind. ”

Shen Yue knew that Cheng Shaomu was testing him, and he wanted to laugh a little in his heart, but his face was not moved, and he said: "I have also heard about the affairs of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, it really doesn't seem like a coincidence. Do you plan to find out who is behind the scenes and rehabilitate the Plains Marquis? ”

"That's exactly what I mean." Cheng Shaomu said.

Shen Yue said: "Princess Cheng doesn't support you? ”

"My aunt feels that the matter has already passed, and there is no point in pursuing it again." Cheng Shaomu said, "And Qin sent to investigate the case in person, and this case is difficult to overturn." ”

"It's really hard to flip." Shen Yue said, "Then you came to look for me, do you want me to help you overturn the case?" ”

Cheng Shaomu said sincerely: "Yes." ”

"Ha~~ Cousin, you really look up to me." Shen Yue smiled and said: "I'm a businessman now, and I don't even dare to enter the capital, how can I help you." ”

Cheng Shaomu said: "How prominent the Shen family was back then, relatives and friends are old, there must be ......"

"It turns out that you want me to contact the Shen family, so do you know how big the risk is." Shen Yue interrupted Cheng Shaomu's words and said, "You know how the Cheng family treats Ah Xiu. At this moment, how big a face do you have to say to me. ”

Rao is Cheng Shaomu was mentally prepared, and he couldn't help blushing at this time.

However, Shen Yue's reaction, the matter of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, should have nothing to do with him. This trip has finally been a little beneficial.

"Too lazy to talk nonsense with you, send off." Shen Yue said directly.

Cheng Shaomu bowed his head and said, "It's me who was rude, and please don't mind my cousin." ”

"This cousin is too heavy, I can't stand it." Shen Yue said, waved his hand and said, "There is nothing to talk about, and there is no need to talk about it in the future." ”

"Cousin......" Cheng Shaomu said in a sad tone, and he was a little reluctant in his heart.

The Pingyuan Hou Mansion was defeated, and he really didn't have any relatives. Think about Shen Xiu, he really wants to be close to this cousin.

It's just that......

Princess Cheng had already decided that the defeat of the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion was related to Shen Yue, and after meeting this time, he didn't believe it, but there was no evidence to prove it.

"I'm a businessman, I thought you came to me for business." Shen Yue said, "The merchant's family needs the protection of the government, and if something happens to the Cheng family, you have no way to enter the office, and starting a business is a way." I have been running a shipping business for many years, and I have experience and manpower, and if I take the line of Yanwangfu, I will definitely be able to make money. ”

Cheng Shaomu said: "My cousin has a good relationship with the prince, so why do you need the princess line." ”

"Heh, the relationship between one side many years ago, where did the friendship come from." Shen Yue sneered, "The interests are the most realistic, where do you think my whole body can enter Han Xiao's eyes?" ”

Cheng Shaomu looked at Shen Yue, especially Shen Yue's face, but it was difficult to say it, so he was simply silent.

"The interests are the most realistic." Shen Yue said, "I also need a reliable backstage, and you also need a place to stand, which is an opportunity for our cousins to cooperate." Of course, if you still regard family feuds as your number one priority, you don't need to come to me again. I'm just a businessman now, and I'm not going to fight with officials. ”

"I see." Cheng Shaomu said.

Shen Yue's tone became impatient, and he said, "If you understand, you can go." ”

Cheng Shaomu had to stand up, but his expression was a little hesitant, and said, "I heard that Ah Xiu followed her cousin, and I didn't know ...... her."

"She's fine." Shen Yue said, looked at Cheng Shaomu and mocked: "Although she is a merchant lady, she is better than being a girl in the Hou Mansion." ”

Such a straightforward ridicule made Cheng Shaomu even more embarrassed. The next words are almost going on.

But if you don't say it, I'm afraid you won't be able to say it in the future.

"Why, do you still want to see her?" Shen Yue said mockingly, "I hope she is still the same as before, please say hello and pour tea and water?" ”

"No, it's not." Cheng Shaomu said repeatedly, although he felt guilty, but he said: "I mistreated her and want to apologize to her." ”

His feelings for Shen Xiu are not fake, it's just that the best time is that he mistreated Shen Xiu.

At this moment, he already understood why Shen Xiu didn't like him, and he didn't think that his apology could change anything.

But he still wanted to tell Shen Xiu that he knew he was wrong, and that he had been in a relationship for many years to understand, and he also wanted to make it clear to Shen Xiu.

"Your apology isn't worth a single copper plate." Shen Yue said directly, "Although I want to cooperate with you, I also make it clear, don't think about what you shouldn't think." Otherwise, I will make you regret it. ”

When he said the last sentence, Shen Yue's voice was gloomy, and his killing intent was fully revealed.

Cheng Shaomu's heart was full of guilt, and he didn't care about Shen Yue's threat, of course, he didn't have the face to ask again, and said, "Farewell." ”

"No." Shen Yue said coldly.

Cheng Shaomu turned around and left, and his own steward left with Cheng Shaomu.

"Heh~ I'm still thinking about good things." Shen Yue's voice was cold, "I shouldn't have spared his life in the first place." ”

The so-called cutting grass and eradicating the roots, he brought down the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, but he left Cheng Shaomu alive, and it was idle to think about it.

Forget it, life is boring, so you should spend time at leisure.

Cheng Shaomu has indeed grown, but this growth, in his opinion, is still too little. Of course, if one day, Cheng Shaomu put a knife on his neck and shouted for revenge, it would be interesting.

"If you want him to die now, I'll go and be him at night." Shen Jing, who had been silent, suddenly interjected.

"Heh~ Opening and closing your mouth is to cut people, which is not good. We are serious businessmen, not gangsters. Shen Yue said.

Shen Jing said: "No way, who asked me to do the job of cutting people, always if I don't cut people, I will worry about whether I will lose my job." ”

"Rest assured, as long as I don't die, you won't be unemployed." Shen Yue said.

Shen Jing frowned and said, "With me, you won't die." ”

"Ha~" Shen Yue smiled, but he didn't speak.

Shen Jing didn't speak anymore, and began to concentrate on wiping his knife again.

Shen Yue has said similar things more than once, life and death or something, ordinary people can joke and put it on their lips. But people like them, licking blood from the knife edge, can't say it.

He corrected Shen Yue, but ......

The obedient Shen Yue is not Shen Yue.

Life and death, death and life, he has seen too much life and death, but he can't accept Shen Yue's casual gossip.

"Proprietor, there is a letter." The steward hurried in with the letter in his hand, looking very anxious.

Shen Yue took the letter and waved his hand to let the steward step back.

A dozen thick, nothing was written on the cover, although it was not folded, but he knew.

Han Qi's letter, there should also be a letter.
