Chapter 5: Mrs. Tao Comes to the Door

Three days later, Cheng Shaomu went out.

The big bags and small bags are loaded into two big cars, and the spring banquet will not end for several days, and I went to the other courtyard, so I naturally have to play enough.

After cleaning up the main house and leaving the girl to watch the house, Shen Xiu and Li Yingluo were about to go to the back door to take the car.

"Is Miss Shen Xiu in the house, Mrs. called you over." The mother-in-law entered the door to spread the word.

Shen Xiu frowned slightly, and said, "Does Mom know what's going on?" ”

Mrs. Cheng was extremely disgusted with her, but Cheng Shaomu protected her, and for the sake of the mother-son relationship, Mrs. Cheng simply couldn't see her and was not upset.

Calling her suddenly, especially when Cheng Shaomu is out, will not be a good thing.

The mother-in-law said: "I heard that Mrs. Tao is here and wants to see the girl." ”

"Huh??" Li Yingluo exclaimed.

Shen Xiu's face also changed.

Cheng Shaomu, as the son of the Plains Marquis, has not yet married at the age of twenty.

It's not that he doesn't want to marry, but the eldest lady of the Tao family, whose father died two years ago. According to the etiquette law, filial piety must be observed for twenty-seven months, and it has been delayed until now.

Counting the days, there are still three months of filial piety of the Tao family, and now Mrs. Tao should come over to discuss the marriage.

Suddenly offered to see her......

Those who come are not good, and those who are good are not coming.

"Let's just say that Miss Shen is still sick, and I'm afraid that I'll give it to my wife after I'm sick, and I'll go to ask for peace when I'm sick." Li Yingluo said.

"How can I not go to the summons of my wife." Shen Xiu said to her mother-in-law again: "Please wait, I'll come after changing my clothes." ”

"Girl, hurry." The mother-in-law said.

"I see." Shen Xiu said, turned around and went back to the house to change clothes.

Li Yingluo followed, but said with a worried face: "Mrs. Tao wants to see you, this is ...... What do you mean? ”

The mother-in-law wants to see her son-in-law's reserve concubine, not to mention good and bad things, this matter itself is too strange.

"Presumably Mrs. Tao heard some news, and she could hide from the first day of junior high school, but she couldn't hide from the fifteenth." Shen Xiu said, "If I don't go to the sick, won't it seem that I'm even more arrogant and domineering?" ”

"Hey~" Li Yingluo couldn't help but sigh.

Yesterday, she also said that Cheng Shaomu was wrong to Shen Xiu, but it was good......

The situation at hand is also unsolvable.

Shen Xiu hurriedly went back to the house to change her clothes, she originally planned to go out, so she didn't dress up as a girl.

If I want to see Mrs. Tao now, I naturally can't dress like that.

The makeup was removed, the jewelry was also removed, and it was changed back to the shoulders that the girl must wear. The dress is reduced, and the standard dress of the girls in the house.

"Let's go." Shen Xiu said to her mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law led the way, Shen Xiu followed closely, and the two walked quickly to Mrs. Mu's main room.

As Mrs. Pingyuanhou, Mrs. Cheng's main house is on the main building complex on the middle road, the courtyard is square and spacious, and the five main rooms in the middle are Mrs. Cheng's living room.

Mrs. Tao came to visit, and because it was her in-laws, she met in the main room.

"Shen Xiu is here......"

The little girl passed the word, Shen Xiu bowed her head and entered the house, looking humble, and stepped forward and said, "Say hello to Mrs. ”

As he spoke, he knelt down and made a big salute.

Mrs. Cheng was sitting in the middle, waving her hand with disgust on her face, "Don't hurry up and give Mrs. Tao a salute." ”

The Shen family treats her badly, and seeing Shen Xiu reminds her of the evil of the Shen family.

Especially Shen Xiu seduced Cheng Shaomu and went against her mother several times, which made her more and more disgusted with Shen Xiu.

Shen Xiu got up, walked to Mrs. Tao on the left seat, stepped forward and said, "Say hello to Mrs. Tao." ”

Saying that Shen Xiu was about to kneel down, unexpectedly, Mrs. Tao stepped forward to help her up, took Shen Xiu's hand and looked her up and down, and said with a smile on her face: "She was born so handsome, she is really the maiden niece of Mrs., with such a good character." ”

Although she is dressed as a girl, her temperament can't be hidden. Needless to say, let alone his own daughter. The women she has seen over the years are combined, but I am afraid that there is not half of her.

The daughter raised by the five generations of Qinggui Shen's family is really good.

The words "maiden niece" made a trace of displeasure flash on Mrs. Mu's face, but she pursed her lips and said nothing.

Shen Xiu felt even more uncomfortable, bowed her head and said, "Mrs. Tao, don't say that, I'm just a girl." ”

Her identity is not a secret in the Pingyuan Hou Mansion, but Mrs. Tao is also known to an outsider, and it seems that she has been seriously inquired and knows very well about her.

"I know more or less about the Shen family, and it is indeed a grievance to let you be a girl." Mrs. Tao said with a smile, her face full of kindness.

Shen Xiu only felt more embarrassed, and bowed his head and said: "Mrs. Tao, don't say that, I'm just a slave, thanks to Mrs. Tao's take-in, I have a place to stay, and I don't have the slightest grievance." ”

What does Mrs. Tao mean?

Mrs. Tao continued: "I have heard that you and Shizi are cousins, and they have been in love for all these years. You can rest assured, I will not treat you badly in the future. ”

It's all implicit, it's explicit. Shen Xiu couldn't help but raise her head and looked at Mrs. Tao blankly.

What do you mean??

Mrs. Cheng couldn't stand it anymore, and said bluntly: "She is a girl, where can she be the wife of her own family." When the daughter-in-law enters the door, if she doesn't like it, just send her out. ”

"No, no, my in-laws have misunderstood." Mrs. Tao smiled and said, "It was originally my family's no, and it has delayed the son of the world for several years." A man's three wives and four concubines are not a big deal, my girl, this amount of tolerance is still there. ”

The relatives of the Cheng Tao family were booked early, and when they were engaged, the Pingyuan Hou Mansion was in defeat, but the Tao family was in full swing.

A few years passed, and the family business of the Plains Hou Mansion recovered. Although the Tao family is poor, it is also good.

The family affair with the Pingyuan Hou Mansion has been delayed for various reasons, she feels sorry for her daughter, and it is nothing to stay for two more years. Who would have thought that her husband died suddenly, which caught the Tao family off guard.

At that time, the Tao girl was eighteen years old, although she was wronged, but her husband passed away, the Tao family was defeated, and the Pingyuan Hou Mansion was in full swing.

Even if he suffers some grievances and asks the Plains Marquis to marry a desolate relative, he is still a ready-made wife of the prince.

The Tao family has no opinion, but I didn't expect Cheng Shaomu to oppose it, and the Pingyuan Hou Mansion also said that it was not easy for the prince to get married, and the marriage was delayed.

"Why did the in-laws say this?" Mrs. Cheng was inexplicably able to hear it.

Not to mention the prince of the Hou Mansion, he is the son and brother of the average rich and noble family, and it is not a big deal if he doesn't get married and sleeps with a girl.

It's not an official wine and concubine, sweeping the face of the in-laws, Mrs. Tao's words are really inexplicable.

If it weren't for Mrs. Tao's sincerity, she would have thought it was irony.

"I've heard it all." Mrs. Tao said with a smile, her gaze very gentle.

Mrs. Cheng was even more inexplicable and said, "What have you heard?" ”

"The prince said outside that he cherished his cousin very much." Mrs. Tao said vaguely, took Shen Xiu's hand again and said, "I saw you today, and I really like it, I like it when I see it." ”

Of course, Cheng Shaomu didn't say that, what he said was to withdraw the Tao family's marriage.

Since he can't marry Shen Xiu as his wife, he won't marry a wife, and only guards Shen Xiu alone. also said that he was reluctant to marry Miss Tao at the beginning, not because marrying a deserted relative was too simple, but because he didn't want to marry.

In this way, he said it publicly, and he did not shy away from letting the Tao family know.

The current Tao family is indeed not worth his attention. After the death of her husband, her mother-in-law took charge of the family and separated the family, although they still lived together, they still seemed to be a big family, but in fact, they had already fallen.

There is no one in the house, and each house guards the ancestral property to live. Eat land rent every year, although you don't die of hunger, your life must be hard.

She has a son and a daughter, Aunt Tao is the eldest sister, and a son, who is only fourteen years old this year. Now the big house, and even the entire Tao family, are counting on this family business to turn over.

Therefore, no matter what Cheng Shaomu says, the Tao family has to laugh.

"This son of evil~~" Mrs. Cheng said angrily, but glared at Shen Xiu.

If it weren't for Shen Xiu seducing Cheng Shaomu, how could Cheng Shaomu act like this.

Mrs. Tao hurriedly smiled and said: "Don't be angry, the wife of the in-laws, the son of the world can be so affectionate, and he is also a person of great affection, which is the blessing of my girl." ”

She came to the door in person, as long as she could guarantee this family business, even if it was for Shen Xiu, the Tao family had no opinion.

The daughter married in and became the wife of the prince.

"You're a fox, seducing you." Mrs. Cheng was furious at Shen Xiu.

Shen Xiuzhi knelt down and did not argue.

There is really no argument, what can she say, she didn't seduce Cheng Shaomu, is Cheng Shaomu pestering her. Mrs. Cheng wanted to kill her even more.

"Oh, Mrs. in-laws, you really misunderstood." Mrs. Tao said, and hurriedly went to help Shen Xiu, and said, "What I said is all true, you blame the girl, how can I be embarrassed." ”

He said to Shen Xiu again: "Girl, get up, get up quickly......"

Mrs. Cheng looked at Shen Xiuqi's heart and liver hurt, and Mrs. Tao behaved like this again, and said angrily to Shen Xiu: "What are you doing here, don't get out of here." ”

Shen Xiu waited for this, and quickly got up and left.
