Chapter 351: Wife and Concubine (2)
Shen Yuechen had expected her to be like this, so she only said, "Uncle is busy with things, so he went out early in the morning." If you really want to see him, you have to wait until after dinner. ”
Just a sentence, Cao's mind turned several times, and when he heard the words, he couldn't help but look at Shen Yuechen, and when he saw that she promised so happily, his heart suddenly felt cold again.
The Liu family and the Wang family were both people who had no ideas, and when they saw that Cao's face was wrong, they couldn't help but start secretly thinking about it.
Shen Yuechen didn't aggressively put up a shelf to suppress people, this matter is not in a hurry.
Unprepared, Cao was frightened by Shen Yuechen's words and fled, and in a panic, he randomly found an excuse to get up and say goodbye.
Liu and Wang also did the same, and got up and left after them.
Chun Ming looked at their backs, shook her head again and again, and said, "Miss, your temper is too good." You are the master, they are slaves, you can't discuss with them, you can do whatever you want. ”
Shen Yuechen took a sip of tea and said, "The dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and it was not good to press too tightly." ”
Chun Ming said: "The Cao family wants to see the uncle, if the time comes, if the uncle is soft-hearted, what can he do?" ”
Shen Yuechen thought for a while and said, "Let's take a look." She is Sister Ying's biological mother in the end, and it is reasonable if the uncle asks to keep her. ”
Words can't be too dead, and things can't be done too much.
When Mother Wu saw that the aunts were gone, she beckoned Cuixin to clean up the table.
Chun Ming continued to whisper: "What if it's the biological mother? A concubine is a concubine, although Sister Ying was born to her, but she is a young lady and a serious master, unlike the Cao family, she can only be a slave for the rest of her life. ”
Shen Yuechen saw her eloquent words, so she said: "Your mouth is really getting more and more powerful, picking on those words that poke people's hearts." ”
When Chun Ming heard this, she lowered her eyes slightly and said: "Who let Miss you are a bodhisattva and never hurt people, those powerful words can only be said by slaves and maids." ”
Mother Wu was beside her, listening to her words more and more, and reminded loudly: "New flowers are going to be planted in the yard today, you should go over and watch it early." ”
After hearing this, Chun Ming hurriedly remembered that he still had something to do at hand, so he hurriedly blessed Shen Yuechen and hurriedly retreated.
Shen Yuechen immediately looked at Mother Wu and said, "Mom, come and talk to me." ”
Mother Wu understood, and slowly stepped forward and said, "I was just about to talk to Miss." ”
The master and servant sat opposite each other, and Mother Wu was the first to speak: "Miss, the old man has taken care of you since you were a child, and I know that you are a tolerant person. Only this time, Miss, why are you ......?"
Halfway through the words, Wu's mother hesitated.
When Shen Yuechen heard this, she smiled quietly and said, "Does Mom feel very confused? Why am I suddenly so ruthless, bent on getting rid of the Cao family? ”
Mother Wu shook her head and said: "Miss must have Miss's distress when she does this, but the old body is worried that even if the uncle nods and agrees, the elders in the upper room may not agree...... Moreover, if you don't get it right, it will give the young lady a mean reputation. ”
To tell the truth, since the young lady gave birth to Brother Xuan'er, the second elder of the Zhu family has become more and more fond of the young lady, and she has also called her a title.
Mother Wu knew that all this was not easy to come by, and she didn't want Shen Yuechen to provoke the second elder for the sake of those unfavored aunts, and felt that it was not good for her to be favored and arrogant.
In this world, except for Wu's mother, no one will think so carefully for her.
Shen Yuechen smiled faintly: "Mother's worries, in fact, I have also thought about it." It's just a reputation for being virtuous, and although it sounds good, it's not enough to make me feel at ease. ”
When Mother Wu heard this, she thought for a while and said, "Although the Cao family has not been favored for a long time, they are still peaceful and self-respecting on weekdays, and there is nothing wrong with it. Moreover, there are so many maids and women in the yard staring and watching. ”
"When Xiao Tao was poisoned, there were a lot of people around him, but in the end, it wasn't the way of the He family."
Mother Wu's eyes flashed slightly, and she was stunned. It turns out that this is what Miss has always minded.
Shen Yuechen sighed lightly and said: "People's hearts have changed abruptly, sometimes only in the morning and night, I don't want to live all day and night, and besides, the uncle is sincere to me, which gives me the confidence to stick to my opinion." ”
If she and Zhu Jintang were just an ordinary couple who respected each other, then she might never have such a bold idea in her life.
In ancient times, it was common for men to have three wives and four concubines. This is a deep-rooted rule, and it is also a bad habit left over from thousands of years. Shen Yuechen had never thought of using his own strength to change the stubbornness that had been ingrained in their hearts. However, Zhu Jintang is different, he gave her such opportunities and qualifications to do what she wants.
A life and a couple, white-headed to old, a life of affection and love, may really exist.
Shen Yuechen didn't want to share her husband with others, and she didn't want to see someone hiding in the shadows, coveting her husband.
"Mom, life is too short, and I want to put my limited energy on those meaningful things and on my children."
When Mother Wu heard this, she nodded clearly: "Miss's thoughts, the old body understands." You're right, instead of watching out for villains every day, it's better to get rid of these scourges and clean them up. ”
Wu's mother originally wanted to persuade her, but she understood what she meant, so she began to think of a way for her.
Listening to Cao's meaning, I am afraid that I would rather die than leave the Zhu family, and it is estimated that I will have to make trouble a few times. As for the Liu family and the Wang family, they are both small characters who are not in the climate, even if they are not convinced, they dare not say anything.
It seems that we have to find a way to make Cao's soft first.
At the same time, Cao hurriedly returned to his room, and as soon as he entered the door, he went straight to the tea table, picked up the teapot on the table, and drank the tea directly into the spout without using a cup.
Seeing this, the maid in the house hurriedly said, "Auntie, slow down, the slave and maid will serve you." ”
Cao rarely has such a gaffe, and others are stunned, and they don't know what happened to her.
Cao's heart was very flustered, only to feel that a heart was pounding, and it felt like it was about to pop out of his throat.
It's so panicked, so urgent, it's not okay to press it down without drinking some water.
While talking, the Liu family and the Wang family followed, apparently wanting to discuss with the Cao family.
The Cao family drank most of the pot of tea, and the placket of his clothes was dripping, and when he saw the Liu family and the Wang family coming, he couldn't help but sneer: "What are you doing here?" ”
Although her tone was not polite, the maids in the room had already shown the two of them a seat.
The Liu family and the Wang family glanced at each other, and then said, "Fang is in the main room...... It's really strange what the grandmother said, we want to come to my sister to discuss and see what to do? ”
Cao Shi took out his handkerchief, wiped his face, sprinkled all the resentment in his heart on the two of them, and said in a deep voice: "Hmph! Are you two really stupid or are you pretending to be confused? What does grandma mean, can't you still hear it? The reason why we signed the death deed to come to the Zhu family was because we were going to live in the Zhu family for the rest of our lives. Now, the eldest grandmother suddenly said that she wants to change the death contract into a living contract, you use your brains to think about it, what does she mean? ”
When the two heard this, their faces immediately changed, and Wang's timidity was so small that they were scared to cry on the spot.
Liu's eyes were also red, and he shook his head, as if in disbelief: "No, no...... We are all already members of the Zhu family. ”
Cao glared at them angrily: "Don't cry here with me!" What's the use of crying, crying? Grandma has always been shrewd, but this time she has to calculate us all! ”
Compared with the shock and fear of the Liu family and the Wang family, the Cao family was a little more angry in his heart.
She had worked so hard to tie up Shen Yuechen before, and even gave up her daughter. She thought that even if Shen Yuechen had a grudge against her before, she would read it in Sister Ying'er's face and would not embarrass her. Who knows, Shen Yuechen actually turned his face and didn't recognize people, and when he said that he would turn his face, he would turn his face, and he didn't even catch a mistake, so he had to kick them out......
It's just too deceitful!
Wang slumped in his chair, hid his face and wept, "What did we do wrong?" Why did grandma let us out...... Sister Cao, sister...... You can help us figure it out! ”
Cao didn't like to see her dejected appearance, so he just turned his head and said, "I'll help you, who will help me?" I think, let's go our separate ways, let's talk about it, you and I are mud bodhisattvas crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect ourselves. ”
Although they are both aunts, the Cao family has never classified themselves as the same as them. She finally gave birth to a daughter for the Zhu family, although she is just an inconspicuous concubine, but she is also the blood of the Zhu family. Moreover, after Zhu Ying was raised by Shen Yuechen's side, her status was no different from that of her daughter.
Seeing that Cao's tone was not good, Liu snorted lightly, turned around and took Wang's hand, and said, "Don't cry, Sister Cao is different from us." No matter how bad it is, they still have a daughter to be by, and we can't compare with others......"
The Wang family cried so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, but unfortunately, no one except the Liu family would feel pity for her.
The Liu family left with the Wang family as if angry, but the Cao family ignored this. Now, she doesn't have time to pay attention to others, so she can only take care of herself first.
Liu comforted the Wang family all the way, although she was very scared in her heart, but seeing her crying like this, she couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
Chun Ming was instructing the gardener in the yard, and inadvertently saw the two of them coming out of Cao's house, and couldn't help but chuckle, and said in his heart: What's the use of holding together at this time? In vain!
Chun Ming was about to turn around, but he stumbled upon a subtle move of the Liu family, and immediately frowned, feeling strange in his heart, and had a feeling that he couldn't explain it.
The Liu family and the Wang family have always been close, they are from the same humble background, and they are not favored, so they often stay in one place, going in and out every day, and look closer than their sisters......
Chun Ming secretly shook her head, only to feel that she was thinking too much, but after thinking about it, she felt that it was inappropriate...... Something is wrong, it's really not quite right.
