Chapter Eighty-Seven: Tie

Shen Laozu's mother's family had all moved out of there, after all, it was only a small place; But the older people get, the more they miss the old, not to mention that now Shen Laozu's brothers and sisters have all died, and her mother's family is still very far away from the capital, although there will be juniors to visit her every year, but the things she brings are not what Shen Laozu wants.

Shen Laozu's sons and nephews said several times that she just wanted the kind of flowers in her hometown: if she can't live in Beijing, then as long as there is a trick, it will be successful; It was not necessary for them to bring something from home, and it was not necessary for them to send something of great value—she did not lack them.

But the nephews didn't understand Shen Laozu's thoughts, and they promised every time, but when they came next time, they would still bring things that were extremely valuable but not precious in Shen Laozu's eyes.

Seeing the excitement flashing in Shen Old Ancestor's eyes, Red Sleeves glanced at Xilan and knew that she was working hard: working hard for Shen Fifth Master.

It is easy to please Shen Lao Zu, but Xilan is not a member of the Shen family, even if it is a person from the Shen family, how many people really know this layer of Shen Lao Zu's thoughts, and who takes this layer of thoughts seriously? Xilan had to find out Shen Lao Zu's preferences first, and then he could do what he liked.

Although Mrs. Sheeran only gave a box of snacks and a handkerchief, she has not lost her mind and energy for these two things these days.

Seeing that Shen Laozu was so excited, Mrs. Xilan got up and said goodbye, saying that she was going to see her eldest sister; At this time, it is better to let Shen Laozu be alone for a while.

After Red Sleeves accompanied Mrs. Sheeran out, he looked at Mrs. Sheeran and just smiled but didn't speak.

Mrs. Xilan's face turned red, but she didn't act like a child, and said bluntly: "Your fifth uncle is a good person, and the Shen Mansion is also a good family, I will not give up." ”

She said openly and honestly, and did things uprightly, without harming anyone; Red Sleeves didn't dislike the scheming used by Mrs. Sheeran, she nodded lightly: "Madam is very attentive, I think the fifth uncle will be very moved when he finds out." ”

"I only do what I want, not to move him; Because I like him. Mrs. Sheeran blushed, and although her voice was small, she still spoke: "What I have done is something I have done willingly, but I hope it will not cause him trouble. ”

Red Sleeves shook his head with a smile: "No, don't worry, madam." ”

Listening to Mrs. Sheeran's words, Red Sleeves was a little moved in her heart: This ancient woman knows better what ** is.

Mrs. Shelan was silent for a while, and then suddenly said: "In the past two days, I have seen that Fifth Master Shen is not in good spirits, is there something going on in the mansion - I am just a little worried about him, and I don't want to inquire about the affairs of the mansion; If it's inconvenient to say it, you don't have to say it to me. ”

She is still very straightforward, and she will say whatever she says in her heart: but not for everyone, this is also what makes Red Sleeves appreciate her.

Red Sleeves shook his head: "It's something that is a little troublesome, not only the fifth uncle is worried; However, it is inconvenient to say it to Mrs. clearly, and Mrs. should not be surprised. ”

Xilan shook his head, didn't ask any more, and changed the topic to ask about the eldest sister.

The arrival of Sheeran certainly made the Seventh Lady and the Second Lady a little unhappy; Especially when they later heard that Shen Laozu said that Mrs. Xilan was also a very good person after Mrs. Xilan left, although she was remarried, it could also be said that she did not hide it; The implication was very obvious, and Old Ancestor Shen was a little shaken by Mrs. Xilan.

The second lady was the most troubled, because the matter of the servant had not yet been clarified, and Mrs. Xilan had already begun to please the mothers of the Shen family; Needless to say, Mrs. Xilan will go to coax Mrs. Shen sooner or later, but at the moment, things in the mansion are so complicated and chaotic, and she can't let Baoxiang please Shen Laozu and Mrs. Shen: Xilan is a guest from outside, and she doesn't know anything about the affairs of the Shen Mansion - even if she knows, she can pretend not to know.

But Bao Xiang didn't do it, even if she really didn't know, but the second lady knew, how could Bao Xiang often go to Mrs. Shen at this time? Shen Laozu is still okay there, but he can't move around too often, otherwise he will be hated by the rest of the Shen family's room.

Mrs. Chu has been more and more dissatisfied with her daughter recently, and she can't see a lot of her daughter's behavior: because she always feels that her daughter is scheming, even for the girls and mothers-in-law in the yard, her daughter is also scheming.

The housekeeper director is not only scheming, Mrs. Chu told her this truth long before her daughter got married, and she didn't want her daughter to be scheming everywhere, and she didn't see her treating people sincerely.

But these things still made her unable to speak, because there were no specific things, and she could only mention two words; But the second lady didn't hear it at all, how could she not be angry?

In addition, there were constant things in the Shen Mansion, and she didn't find a suitable opportunity to talk about her grandson with Mrs. Shen and others, and she was a little annoyed in her heart; I told my daughter once, but my daughter didn't know what she was busy with all day, so she didn't take her affairs to heart at all.

However, she also knew that her daughter had troubles, so she didn't say anything, swallowed all the dissatisfaction in her stomach, and comforted her daughter with kind words; The second lady didn't tell Mrs. Chu about it, which made Mrs. Chu even more uncomfortable.

Seeing that the second lady actually went to look for Baoxiang's mother and daughter at dinnertime, Mrs. Chu was so angry that she ordered the girls, she didn't need to eat at night and turned around and went back to the room: As soon as Mrs. Xilan came, her daughter hurriedly went to find Baoxiang's mother and daughter, and the intention was naturally needless to say.

The matter of courting relatives is to ask you and me to be willing: to achieve it, not to achieve it; Even if you use your scheming, even if you have a family affair, it will be difficult to have a good life in the future; Mrs. Chu was twelve points dissatisfied with the matter of the second lady.

The seventh lady was lying on the bed to raise the baby, and after hearing this, she also found Guiyue's mother and daughter to discuss the matter, and naturally they also had some plans.

The most obvious change is that Bao Xiang and Yue Gui went to Shen Laozu to move around diligently; In addition to going to Shen Laozu, Baoxiang would play with the girls of the Shen family every day: either invite them to taste tea, or invite them to evaluate paintings, etc.; Yuegui and the girls of the Shen family also move around a lot, but not as much as Baoxiang, and she spends part of her energy on Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen has been in a hurry lately, and Yuegui has not stayed with Mrs. Shen for a long time, nor has she said much about anything in the house, just sending some soup or something: it is quite to Mrs. Shen's taste.

Of course, Red Sleeves knew about Baoxiang and Yuegui's movements, but he could only pretend not to know: he couldn't stop people from moving around the Shen Mansion, right?

Yingcao'er was playing with a piece of grass in her hand, just an ordinary grass, and she seemed to have few free moments in her hands: "Girl, the Seventh Lady is afraid that it is for her own children, so she wants to pull the fifth master to her side—with her cousin here in the future, why can't she give her children a good errand or give more makeup in private?" The second lady said goodbye to the fourth master at the same time, saying that she didn't want money. ”

Zhao pouted: "What's not like it?" The fourth master now has all the family business of the original four young "milk" and "milk", even if the Hou Ye is in charge, sooner or later he will have to give it to others, right? As long as she marries someone, her sister will become her daughter - if you want to find that family business, won't there be a way? ”

"As for the fifth master, but the God of Wealth in our mansion, as long as he is caged, won't the silver of the Shen Mansion become hers?" Zhao Shi looked at the red sleeves: "Such an obvious thing, why aren't you and your master in a hurry?" ”

Red Sleeves just smiled and shook his head: "'Milk' mother, you don't have to worry. ”

Yingcao'er grabbed Zhao: "Mother Zhao, you are wrong, don't say anything else, the second lady will not be able to find those silver money family business in a single thing - if it is me, after marrying the fourth or fifth master, why don't you stuff the silver money into your own pocket, and you have to give it to the second lady?" ”

Zhao was stunned when asked: "Maybe the second lady has already controlled ......"

"Nope." Red Sleeves said lightly: "It has been found out, neither Lianxing nor Baoxiang has any handle in the hands of the second aunt, and she is absolutely not controlled; As for whether she will be controlled by her in the future, I don't know. ”

"That's it, that's it, the second lady must be planning to control them."

Ying Cao'er interrupted Zhao's words again: "Impossible. If I were the second lady, I wouldn't do such an uncertain thing - if I couldn't control it, I would become an enemy! ”

"Besides, Fifth Master Shen is in charge of the Shen family's business, but he is not the head of the Shen family; And although Shen Siye is his sister's father, the family business of the first four young "milk" and "milk" has been specified to his sister - if his sister dies, the family business will be handed over to the imperial court by the Shen Mansion for confiscation, and will not become the fourth master, but everyone in the Shen Mansion knows about it; Those Qian shopkeepers were afraid that someone in the third room would kill their sister, so they said so. ”

"Mother Zhao, my sister is now led by the third lady, and she is three points more important than her heart and liver; Who will harm my sister, and it will not do any good to hurt my sister. ”

"Whether the fifth master lives or dies, the business will belong to the Shen family, not the fifth master's own, and of course, the Shen family's family business will become someone else's because the fifth master marries a wife."

Zhao was dumbfounded when he heard this, and then he also understood why Red Sleeves had not been in a hurry: because the second lady was not planning the family business of Sanfang and Shen Mansion at all - so what was she trying to do?

Red Sleeves heard Zhao's words and shook his head slightly: "I don't know, so I'm waiting." "This is something that Red Sleeves has never understood, and the second lady has nothing to lose about the family affairs at the moment.

When Zhao heard this, she looked at Yingcao'er who was proud, and she changed the topic: "The fat girl is dead, and the matter of the second young 'milk' and 'milk' can't be found clearly; I think the guy who did it was clapping his hands with joy. ”

"No, she's probably so angry that she's vomiting blood;" Red Sleeves waved her hand gently: "Although we can't find her now, but she has put so much effort and laid out such a careful game, but what about the final result, the second young 'milk' 'milk' mother and son are safe, and the seventh aunt is also in danger, can she not be angry and half dead?" So this time, it can only be said that we and that person have a tie again; Abominable draw. "Remember the permanent address of Q Pig Literature Station:, so that you can read it next time!
