Chapter 42: Secrets

When I opened the bag, there were several old black-and-white photographs the size of a palm and a roll of drawing paper.

Shen Chuhua picked up the photo and looked through it carefully.

The man in the photo is Shen Jibin when he was young, and he is less than twenty years old, and the woman sitting in Shen Jibin's arms is a slender, beautiful and picturesque woman, definitely not Song Lian.

When I opened the scroll of paper, there was a painting of a woman naked, with a graceful figure and an indecent posture.

It's the same person as the woman in the photo.

Shen Chuhua blushed and put away those paintings when he saw it.

Who is the woman in this painting?

Why did the original owner's father and mother give her these?

Could it be that she used these to threaten Shen Jibin so that she could take back everything that belonged to the original owner?

No, Shen Jibin is extremely disgusted with Song Lian, he doesn't care about Song Lian at all, if these are given to Song Lian, the two of them will make trouble, Song Lian will also be kicked out by Shen Jibin, and he will marry again, wouldn't this be cheaper Shen Jibin?

After thinking about it for a long time, Shen Chuhua put all these in her treasure chest, since her parents said that it was a 'baby', it would be useful in the future, so she put it away first.

Just about to close the lid, his eyes inadvertently swept to the treasure chest, the man's knife, lying quietly inside, Shen Chuhua remembered the man's face and what he did to her.

She just wanted to steal this thing for self-defense, but she didn't expect to provoke the most evil man, how many of the Zhan family? She still doesn't know what will happen to that man who will also live in the Zhan family in the future?

Shen Chuhua shook his head, not daring to think about it.

meanwhile

At the border of Linyuan City.

A grand chamber of commerce is being held, where the nobles and wealthy families of all parties gather to conduct trade transactions.

In fact, it is a competition to see who is more powerful in each family so that they can dominate one side.

In addition to the first big aristocratic warrior in the south, there is another wealthy businessman who has only gradually emerged in recent years, Zhang Yunnian.

In recent years, he has been in Jiangdong, where he originally fought for Muchen's territory, opened fur shops, banks, and factories, and his financial resources have gradually become stronger, and he seems to want to compete with the Zhan family for the position of the first family, and become the chief secretary, which is the number one enemy of the Zhan family.

And Ouyang Shuo, the first aristocratic chief in the north, seemed to be mediating between the two families of war and Zhang at the Chamber of Commerce, and being a peacemaker was actually helping Zhang Yunnian.

The Ouyang family just wants to help Zhang Yunnian get the title of the first nobleman in Jiangdong, so that he can get benefits from Zhang Yunnian, so that the Zhan family can take the opportunity to win some of the wealth of the Zhan family and strengthen their strength.

At present, the chief ministers of all parties (the name of the richest rich aristocrats on one side) have used their own capital to compete in the chamber of commerce.

Jiangdong Grand Chancellor Zhan Muchen with Jiangdong Wensi Wuji, Li Wennian and Zhang Yishan, as well as his three sons-

The old World War II was only in the south, the old third war was in the west, and the old fourth war was in the Chamber of Commerce, competing with those profiteers.

The situation of the Chamber of Commerce is tense, and whether it can maintain the position of the Zhan family in Jiangdong depends on the situation in the past few days.

In recent months, several factories in Jiangdong have had accidents and closed down two factories, and Zhang Yunnian has opened new factories one after another.

If Zhang Yunnian has the name of the richest businessman, then the people who usually cooperate with the Zhan family will take refuge in Zhang Yunnian and the Zhan family......

The men of the Zhan family are doing their best to protect the Zhan family at this moment.

The next day,

It was the day when Shen Chu painted his marriage.

She got up very early, changed into the wedding dress of the concubine, and painted ugly makeup.

In the dressing mirror, her face is full of freckles, her eyebrows and eyes are ugly, and her red lips are exaggerated and blood-red.

On the day when the Zhan family came to propose, the photo Zhang Wusi held in her hand was her painting ugly girl makeup, stupid and dull.

In that case, of course, she had to dress up like she did in the photo.

She knows that once she enters a wealthy family, she can only rely on herself in the future, and her heart to guard against others is indispensable, so it is better to wear a mask to protect herself.

There was a gentle knock on the door.

It is Shen Tuo, the eldest son of the Shen family.

Shen Chu went to open the door.

Shen Tuo walked in and looked at Shen Chuhua, his elegant face was full of reluctance, "Chuhua, if you don't want to marry and be a concubine, I'll go and tell my father, let's discuss with the Zhan family, if you don't marry, why bother wronging yourself." ”

Shen Tuo was upset for the first painting, the original face of the first painting was so delicate and moving, she was a rare beauty, married into someone's family as a concubine, it was a pity, she was so gentle as water, beautiful and picturesque, she should marry a gentle and elegant scholar, like him.
