Chapter 73: Family Affair (4)
North Gate Tile, West Street end, Shen Yiyi's new foot shop, is in full swing construction and transformation, the store is scattered with all kinds of wood and tools, craftsmen shuttle back and forth, busy but not chaotic.
Shen Yiyi had appointed a treasurer, one of the slaves she had bought, named Shen Ji, which was the name she had given her. At this time, she was holding a design drawing in her hand and explaining various decoration matters to Shen Ji. Although Shen Ji was a slave, he had her promise that he would be able to get dividends from the foot shop in the future, so he listened very carefully and asked a few questions from time to time.
As soon as Wang Daniu came up at the door of the foot shop, he let Little Pepper stop him. Little Pepper stuck her waist and raised her eyebrows and scolded: "Why are you here again?" Staring at it all day, are you tired? Roll on, where to fight, where to go, don't get in my way here! ”
Wang Daniu was bored and wanted to break in, Wang Qing immediately got out from behind Xiao Pepper, and pushed him with his hand: "What are you doing, what are you doing, no one is looking for me, I'm idle." ”
He is a practitioner, this push is not trivial, Wang Daniu was so painful that he almost shed tears, so he had to raise his voice and shout: "Miss, the third wife, please come over!" ”
Shen Yiyi heard him shout and turned around: "Something?" ”
"Miss, the second, fourth and fifth masters are here." Wang Da Niu said.
"Okay, you wait a while, I'll explain a few words and I'll go with you." Shen Yiyi said, turned around, handed over the design to Shen Ji, and asked him to continue to supervise the work.
Little Pepper ran over and nervously pulled her sleeve: "Miss, last time the third master was going to tie you up and go back to Wuchang, this time the second, fourth and fifth masters are coming, it will definitely not be a good thing, you must not go." ”..
"Okay, then I'm not going." Shen Yiyi said happily, "Close your eyes and wait for them to come to harm." ”
"No, no, no, then you better go, hurry up!" Little Pepper hurriedly loosened her sleeve, "I'll go with you!" ”
Of course I have to accompany her, she doesn't know anyone, and I'll have to rely on her guidance later. Shen Yiyi nodded and said to Wang Daniu: "Lead the way." ”
Wang Daniu led Shen Yiyi to the backyard hall of Fuqing Inn, and said, "The second master, the fourth master, the fifth master, and the third wife, the eldest lady is here." ”
Second Master Shen glanced at Mrs. Shen: "It turns out that the third brother and sister have already sent someone to ask Yiyi, they really have a heart." ”
Mrs. Shen San instantly felt that her mind was being seen through, and she angrily picked up the teacup and pinned her face to the other side.
While they were talking, Shen Yiyi raised her eyes and saw three middle-aged men sitting on the left hand side of the upper and lower heads, with similar appearances, and they were brothers at first glance.
According to the dignity of the seat, sitting at the top, the person who spoke to Mrs. Shen San just now should be the second master Shen; On the first chair below, the thin and thin one is Master Shen Si; On the second chair, the fat and fat one is Master Shen Wu.
Shen Yiyi took a step forward and saluted: "It's really embarrassing that a few uncles came all the way to work." ”
Shen Wu thought about the daughters who had suffered in the family, and he was angry when he saw Shen Yiyi, but thinking that he had to rely on her to make a windfall, he endured his anger again, but his face was still ugly, as black as the bottom of a pot.
Second Master Shen glanced at Shen Yiyi a few times and said, "I haven't seen you for a year, I've grown taller, but on this face, how does it look like there is a scar?" ”
Shen Yiyi replied: "When I escaped from Fuyang County, I encountered robbers, who were cut by robbers with a sword. ”
"Robbers?" Second Master Shen was surprised, but he didn't ask in detail, pointed to the chair on the right, and said, "You sit down, although you can't make your own decisions about marriage matters, but you still have to let you know in the end." ”
Marriage Event?? Didn't they come to kidnap her back to Wuchang, how did it get involved in the marriage matter? Shen Yiyi was puzzled and sat down on the chair.
Little Pepper stood behind her, faintly feeling that something was wrong, and a handful of sweat was pinched in her palms.
Second Master Shen looked at Shen Yiyi and sat down, and said: "Yiyi, you did something wrong, and the entire Shen family was affected, so it should be sunk in the pond to correct the Shen family's family style, but we are your own uncles, how can we bear to see you die at a young age, so after discussion, I decided to marry you to Wu De, which is also considered to be your wish, I think you should be very willing." ”
"Marry Wu De?!" Little Pepper exclaimed, "Second Master, the eldest lady got rid of that bastard of Wu De so easily, but you want to marry her to him?!" Isn't all the efforts made by the eldest lady before in vain?! ”
"What effort?" Second Master Shen lifted his eyelids and glanced at her, "Don't think I don't know anything, isn't Yiyi fleeing Fuyang County because he refuses to be a concubine for Wu De?" Now let her be a wife, what is she not willing? ”
"It's not a matter of a proper wife or a bad wife!" Little Pepper was angry, "Wu De eats soft rice, is full of lies, and hooks up, it's not a good thing!" ”
"He's not a thing anymore, he's a lift." Second Master Shen sank his face, "If it weren't for Yiyi having such a fuss with him a year ago, he might not have been able to climb high." ”
"Gao Pan?!" Little Pepper laughed angrily, "If it weren't for the eldest lady's money, he would have starved to death, where could he do anything!" ”
"Okay, don't get cheap and sell well!" Fifth Master Shen slapped the coffee table suddenly, "Whether your eldest lady elopes or is abducted, she has been messing with Wu Dewu for a whole year anyway, so she can't tell why!" As she is now, if she can marry Wu De, she will burn high incense, what else do you want?! ”
"Yes, this is why our uncles are magnanimous and don't care about her, otherwise there is only one way to sink the pond waiting for her." Master Shen Si echoed, "You should be grateful, why aren't you happy, isn't this a bad idea?" ”
So, thank them?! Little Pepper was so angry that her hair was dizzy, and as soon as she rolled her sleeves, she rushed at them: "You dare to marry the eldest lady to Wu De, I will fight with you!" ”
"Alright, Pepper, don't be impulsive." Shen Yiyi stretched out her hand and grabbed her, "Several uncles are also kind. ”
"That's right!" Second Master Shen slapped the coffee table lightly, revealing a smile, "I knew that Yiyi was a good child." ”
"Miss!" Little Pepper was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes. Marriage is a lifelong thing, how can you spend it with someone like Wu De! She knew that Miss still couldn't let go of that scumbag! It's all her fault, thinking that the young lady's temperament has changed, so she changed her past mistakes and neglected her education!
Shen Yiyi pulled Little Pepper back to the chair, signaled her to be calm, and then asked Second Master Shen, "Second Uncle, does my father know about this?" ”
Second Master Shen heard the meaning of her words, and said unhappily: "What, do you think that our uncles can't be the masters of your family affairs?" What you did has harmed all of us, and now we can decide your life and death, not to mention your family affairs? ”
