Chapter 49: Father and daughter turn their faces
Shen Yunwan didn't know that the chicken soup that Xiao Yeheng poured into herself was not "original", and she went back to a familiar place to sleep on her pillow when she was highly nervous in the Shen family.
Early the next morning, Shen Yunwan came to the courtyard where the Empress Dowager Zheng lived to check the pulse of the Empress Dowager Zheng.
"Queen Mother, your body is recovering well, and you can be cured with three more medicines." Shen Yunwan said with a smile.
Empress Dowager Zheng raised her hand and stroked her sideburns, and the gray hair that was still a few days ago became as black as ink, and even the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were stretched.
"I also want to ask you, this girl, if the medicine prescribed to me has the miraculous effect of rejuvenation, every day when I look in the mirror, it can scare me, and I suspect that I have become an old goblin."
"It's just an ordinary beauty drug, you were gorgeous when you were young, and the years have never defeated the beauty, how can you be an old goblin?" Shen Yunwan's voice was like smeared honey.
"Look at this little mouth!"
Empress Dowager Zheng raised her finger to point at Shen Yunwan, but as soon as she was halfway through, she was stopped by an arm in the oblique stab.
She looked at her grandson in bewilderment.
In fact, Xiao Yeheng's instinctive reaction just now was faster than his brain's thinking, he just didn't want his grandmother's finger to fall on Shen Yunwan's cherry lips......
It's ridiculous that there would be such a ridiculous idea!
Empress Dowager Zheng sighed in her heart, in order not to embarrass her grandson, or to say that she didn't want her grandson to explore his true thoughts so quickly, she changed the topic.
"Bao, the mourning family can't live with you for a few days. After all, Kunyi Palace is the place where mourning should stay. β
"Grandmother, why is it so sudden?" Xiao Yeheng didn't have time to think about it, and frowned and looked at his grandmother.
"Is it because the subordinates of the palace are not serving well?"
"Of course not." Empress Dowager Zheng patted Xiao Yeheng's hand soothingly.
"I have to go back, my grandson is about to get up. Although my grandmother is old, she can't move if she is not old, and those obstacles on the way...... I'll clean it up for you. β
"Grandmother, grandchildren don't need you to do this." Xiao Yeheng unexpectedly thought that someone had said the same thing as his grandmother yesterday.
"But as an elder, I always hope that the younger generation will have a smoother path. Not to mention ......"
Empress Dowager Zheng smiled softly: "What's more, the little girl still needs the backer of the mourning family, leaving the Shen Mansion with dignity is just the beginning, she also needs to stand in front of the world openly." Girls, they always need to socialize. β
It turns out that Empress Dowager Zheng has not forgotten to make herself the county lord! This old man can really handle it!
Shen Yunwan smiled sweetly: "Queen Mother, don't worry, I have an antidote pill here, even if you return to the palace, no one can harm you." β
"You girl, if you don't go back, you won't take out this treasure medicine of yours." Empress Dowager Zheng teased.
"Queen Mother, no one in the palace will harm you, and you don't need this. But in the palace it is not for sure. β
Shen Yunwan was so bold that he dared to say anything.
"That's not necessarily, the real crisis is always hidden under the calm waters."
Empress Dowager Zheng smiled lightly, a girlish naughtiness appeared in her eyes, and there was no sense of disobedience in her.
"In the past few decades, the mourning family has to keep one eye open even when sleeping, so the mourning family can live until now, you have to remember."
Hey, is Empress Dowager Zheng teaching herself?
Shen Yunwan blinked with a pair of bright big eyes and nodded.
"I will definitely take the words of the Queen Mother to heart."
"That's good!" The more Empress Dowager Zheng looks at Shen Yunwan now, the more she likes it.
Now it seems that the grandson has a vision, it was too correct not to choose the girl of the Qi family at the beginning, the little girl is smart, beautiful, and decisive, this is her favorite granddaughter-in-law.
"Last time you said you wanted to open a medical center. The mourning family thinks that it is better to open a fat powder shop first, and you don't have to show up, let Bao help you choose a suitable shopkeeper, arrange more manpower, and you can open it in three days. β
Empress Dowager Zheng suddenly proposed.
"Fat powder shop?" Shen Yunwan really didn't have this idea, after all, medical Taoism was his old profession.
"The medicine you gave to the mourning family has such a good effect in just a few days, if you want to settle down, this is the fastest way."
Empress Dowager Zheng glanced at Xiao Yeheng and said, "The shop will be opened in the name of the King of Jin's Mansion first, and I will invest 5,000 taels of silver, which is considered my medical fee." Let Bao add some of the rest, and the two of you will divide the money you earn. β
When my grandmother said that, it seemed that I was being stingy. This shop is counted as my consultation fee, as for my grandmother's five thousand taels...... Just keep it for Yun Wan as pocket money. β
Xiao Yeheng looked into Shen Yunwan's eyes and said softly.
"Queen Mother, have you already discussed it with Xiao Yeheng?" Shen Yunwan blinked, if she didn't even see this, then she was too stupid.
"Hey, you girl, it's good at everything, but sometimes you're too smart and don't seem cute enough."
Empress Dowager Zheng said complaining words, but her eyes were full of smiles.
"In the past, you had the idea of opening a medical center, and Ah Bao also had his concerns, so he kept dragging it out. But since you returned to the Shen family, Ah Bao has figured it out. Instead of relying on others, what you want to rely on is the foundation of your own life. β
Empress Dowager Zheng's eyes showed approval: "It took several years for the mourning family to figure out this truth, but how old are you, and you see things so thoroughly." β
Xiao Yeheng didn't want to let herself open a medical center, which Shen Yunwan had already thought of.
For Xiao Yeheng, the medical skills he has mastered have far exceeded his cognition, so he wants to take himself into his hands, and he will have the same idea if he changes himself.
But what Shen Yunwan didn't expect was that Xiao Yeheng would change his mind and propose a more mature plan than opening a medical hall.
I am not famous now, and even if I do, I may not have a business.
But this rouge gouache is different, as long as the location of the shop is good enough and the packaging is beautiful enough, it is easy to attract customers.
Finally, with word of mouth, regular customers bring new customers, and it won't take long to earn back the capital!
"Queen Mother, if you continue to boast like this, I will be proud." Shen Yunwan showed a playful smile, "Since you and Xiao Yeheng both said that they were for me to pay for the consultation, then I will be disrespectful." β
One of the things that Empress Dowager Zheng likes about Shen Yunwan is that she has a simple temperament and never is duplicitous.
Empress Dowager Zheng smiled and said, "What kind of name do you want to give the shop?" Po also asked people to make plaques. β
"Let's call it Nian Nujiao." Shen Yunwan quickly thought of a name.
"Nian Nujiao? Not bad. Empress Dowager Zheng bowed her head and looked at her grandson with a smile, "Bao, now that you have a name, just go ahead and do it." β
Shen Yunwan didn't expect that just by going to the courtyard of the Empress Dowager Zheng, he earned a shop and five thousand taels of silver!
With this money, you can do a lot of things yourself.
Unlike Shen Yunwan's jubilant atmosphere, the Shen family had a gloomy and misty atmosphere.
Shen Wanzhu had a pair of red eyes, staring at Mrs. Shen with a look of resentment.
"Mother, is it only Shen Yunwan who is your daughter? You actually forged your father's handwritten letter in order to let her go, have you ever thought about me? Have you ever thought about the Shen family? β
"Do you know what the outside says about me? said that I was a watery poplar and seduced my sister's fiancΓ©; And the father, there is no way to teach his daughter! Our Shen family has become everyone's joke, and now you are satisfied?! β
"Wanzhu, I didn't think about it that much at the time. The palms and backs of her hands are full of meat, and she is also my daughter! How could I watch her marry a beast! β
Mrs. Shen slumped weakly in her chair in the face of her eldest daughter's accusations.
She couldn't understand: the younger daughter resented herself, why did the eldest daughter resent herself!
"Therefore, you are reluctant to marry Shen Yunwan to Chen Wenjie, but you are willing to let me be scolded by the world! Do you still wish I would die outside! β
Shen Wanzhu sneered, and there was a hint of resentment in her expression: "It's a pity, I disappointed my mother, not only did I come back, but I also had His Royal Highness King Chen as my backer." β
After Shen Wanzhu finished speaking, she turned to look at Shen Zhengqing, who was unusually silent, and her smile revealed a bit of cruelty: "Father, my mother made a big mistake and did something that damaged the reputation of the Shen family, please ask my father to lock my mother in the family temple and don't let my mother come out again." β
Mrs. Shen never expected her eldest daughter to be so ruthless! I'm her real mother!
"Wanzhu, I'm your mother!" Mrs. Shen covered her mouth in disbelief, tears instantly filling her eyes.
"So what? If you make a mistake, you should be punished, and it was you who taught me, mother. Shen Wanzhu's expression was extremely indifferent, even in the face of Mrs. Shen's tears, she was not moved.
"Enough! Is there anything wrong with the rumors from outsiders? Didn't you rob Chu Mingxuan? It's not enough to take away your sister's fiancΓ©, you have to kill them all, if it weren't for you and Chu Mingxuan's design to harm Chen Wenjie, if you don't do things well, how could you be held by the Chen family? β
Shen Zhengqing not only did not take a concubine for so many years, but also did not have a connecting room, if he didn't have a deep affection for Mrs. Shen, he would not have reached this point.
Of course, her wife is at fault, but she has always been soft-hearted, and her youngest daughter has been painful since she was a child, and she has given up her little daughter once for the sake of her own future with the Shen family, so how can she bear to give up the second time!
On the contrary, it is the eldest daughter, relying on the favor of His Royal Highness King Chen, who never puts herself and his wife in her eyes, and she doesn't get much benefit, and she has to clean up the mess she left behind!
The Chen family forced marriage, she could clearly go to King Chen for help, but she came up with a bad trick to let her youngest daughter marry instead, if she hadn't forced her again and again, the youngest daughter would not have chosen to break the net with the Shen family!
This spoiler still has the face to blame her mother!
"Evil obstacles, since you can find His Royal Highness King Chen to help you stop this marriage, you have to do a substitute marriage in one more move, you have today, you are reaping the consequences!"
Shen Zhengqing shouted angrily.
"His Royal Highness King Chen is a nobleman, I go to beg him to help, don't you need to pay the price? Shen Yunwan can't find any good people anyway, I'm making the best use of it. β
Shen Wanzhu's expression did not show the slightest remorse, since she had already torn her face with her parents, she had no scruples.
"Since my father doesn't like me, I won't get in your way."
After Shen Wanzhu finished speaking, she glanced at Shen Zhengqing and Mrs. Shen deeply, made a perfunctory curtsy, and left without looking back!
"Presumptuous! Did I let you go? Shen Zhengqing was so angry that he slapped his palm on the table, and the tea bowl on it also shook!
"Then it depends on whether my father has the ability to keep me." Shen Wanzhu curled her lips and showed a coquettish but sarcastic smile towards Shen Zhengqing.
