When An Ying returned to the inn, he saw Yang Ye sitting on the first floor, so he walked over. When Yang Ye saw her coming, he shouted to the guys in the store, "Let's take the wontons down." An Ying smiled knowingly, and then shouted again: "Please have another cold salad horse tooth and pickled lotus root slices." ”

The two chatted while eating, and as soon as Yang Ye heard that An Ying had gone to Mrs. Shen, he nodded slightly and said: "The master of the Shen family is also in prison now, and Mrs. Shen has quite a means, I didn't expect that she has some relationship with your mother, and she is willing to take you to the front of the Lord of the Criminal Department, so that things can be clearer." ”

An Ying thought for a moment and said, "Do you know the situation of the Shen family? When I was leaving today, I heard that the old lady and the second master of his family were making trouble in the flower hall. It's a bit strange that the family doesn't work hard at this moment. ”

"Ahem, this has to be talked about a few years ago. My wife and Mrs. Shen's eldest sister are good friends. The Shen family's mother's family is still a little famous in Huzhou. Her maiden family is a branch of the Qian family in Hangzhou. Her father, Qian Huisheng, and Qian Hui, the current head of the Qian family in Hangzhou, were originally cousins. Her eldest sister married the son of the Dai family in the capital, and her second sister married into the Wang family in the capital, which was her family's in-laws for many years. ”

Hearing this, An Ying raised his head from the plate, and looked at Yang Ye's expression, he frowned and said: "Something happened to the Shen family, Mrs. Shen married the uncle of the Shen family for various reasons, but the Qian family doesn't seem to be very supportive of this matter, and I heard that the Shen family came to the door a few years ago, but they were driven out by the Qian family." ”

The guy came up with the wontons and put them on the table steaming, and the little two said with a smile: "The wontons are here, fresh shepherd's cabbage filling." Are you talking about the Shen family of Jie Hongshengji? I know that. An Ying took out a few copper coins and motioned for Xiao Er to continue, pretending not to see the disapproval on Yang Ye's face next to him.

"The Shen family is a wealthy family from Huzhou, and it is also the number one among the wealthy families in the capital. Back then, the Qian family was involved in the case of the Xie family, the prince of Zhenguo, and the uncle of the Qian family was detained in prison. I heard that in order to dredge up the relationship, everything that can be sold at home has been sold. Later, it was said that Miss Qian San married the Shen family, and I heard that the master of the Shen family helped the capital to take care of it, and he paid a lot of money. ”

"Then how did you get kicked out by the Qian family? According to what you say, it's okay if it's not a relationship between the two families, so that it won't tear your face. Anyway, there is also Miss Qiansan, no matter what she says, she married for her mother's family. An Ying scooped up a wonton and blew on it.

"You don't know. It was the three young ladies who drove the Shen family out, Mrs. Shen. When the old man of the Shen family was there, the two families were still relatives on the move, but the old lady of the Shen family had always been partial to the second master of the Shen family. The second master Shen deceived and raped a girl from a peasant family in the countryside, and the girl's family sued all the way to the criminal department. The old lady of the Shen family just wanted the Qian family to come forward and go to the government to suppress this matter. Mrs. Shen disagreed, and the old lady of the Shen family went to the Qian family by herself, and was carried back to the Shen family by Mrs. Shen. That day, we all gathered around to watch the excitement, and Mrs. Shen said, this matter cannot be suppressed, and it can be judged how it should be judged. ”

Yang Ye nodded and said, "I also know this, Mrs. Shen is the eldest husband." Later, the peasant girl crashed into the door of the Shen family's mansion and died, which alarmed the Criminal Department. In the end, the second master of the Shen family was sentenced to 20 rods, which was originally to be exiled, but later Mrs. Shen found the girl's family, buried the girl, and paid a large amount of silver to change it to 20 rods. ”

"Yes, yes. After this incident, the old man of the Shen family heard that he was angry to death, and then they split up. The old lady of the Shen family had to follow the second master and scolded Mrs. Shen for killing her. This family is divided, tsk tsk. ”

"You even know how they split up?" An Yinghu looked at Xiao Er suspiciously.

"Not only does he know, but I know." Yang Ye took over the conversation, and motioned for Xiao Er to retreat: "The division has been beaten all the way to the mansion, and the old lady of the Shen family is still splashing in the lobby, not to say that Lord Yin of the mansion has shielded Mrs. Shen." Later, in the lobby of the mansion, people from the Shen family were called to divide the family together. Basically, the family's fields and shops were given to the second master, and the old lady followed the second master. Leave it to the uncle of the Shen family to the tea shop in Batou, which is still the most inconspicuous shop in the Shen family. The Shen family is in the money business, and some other bits and pieces of shops are also money-making businesses, and the Batou Street you are going to today originally had half of the street owned by the Shen family, with pawnshops, silk and satin, and northern goods stores. ”

"That's weird." An Ying raised her head from the misty wontons: "The old lady of the Shen family is still making trouble in the flower hall today, it sounds like it's for money." It stands to reason that most of the money was given to the second master, and he said that he would divide the family property. Aren't they all divided? ”

Yang Ye said in a low voice: "The second master of the Yang family is a person who can't afford to support him, and he has everything to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble." My father and the master of the Shen family often drink together, I didn't plan to give the family business to the second master when I heard what he meant, you think that this money village business is not something that ordinary people can do, the old man Shen has been taking the boss to do the money village business, why did he spend so much effort to marry the Qian family's young lady, it is also for the business in this family. But then again, that old man Shen's vision is really accurate, this Miss Qian San is also Mrs. Shen, who is really a heroine among women. Later, Mrs. Shen was stunned to make this small tea shop bigger, and now it is also one of the best tea shops in the capital. It turned out that the shops of the Shen family on Batou Street were also sold by the second master one by one. Especially a few years ago, there was a big incident in the money village in Mingzhou Mansion, and the big housekeeper of the money village fraudulently used Shen Erye's private seal to concentrate all the cash in the southeast road in Mingzhou Mansion, and then ran away. reported to the official, it was useless, I heard that I went to sea. That Second Master Shen's room is a failure. ”

"Then why split up? If you lose, you have to re-divide? I don't think so. Then why didn't this Shen family uncle say anything? I didn't hear anything about him. An Ying swallowed the last ravioli.

"Alas, it is this uncle of the Shen family who is kind and filial. Originally, when the family was separated, my father persuaded that Old Man Shen originally belonged to you, and the business of Qianzhuang was not good, and the second master couldn't support it. But he still listened to his mother and gave all the family business to his younger brother. Later, the second master's business couldn't continue, and it was also the Shen family uncle who was helping. Listening to my father, the uncle of the Shen family was imprisoned in the mansion, and the second master and they cut off the help, so they went to the tea shop, and Mrs. Shen made a point of arresting the mansion quickly, so that people would let the arrest come and drive it away as soon as they came. Yang Ye sighed: "Mrs. Shen is capable, but her heart is too hard. My father said that Uncle Shen entrusted my father to take care of his brother and mother in prison, and my father was also very embarrassed. ”

An Ying looked at Yang Ye, thought for a while, and said: "This Mrs. Shen was pointed at her nose and scolded, and the family business was so unevenly divided, you said that if she was soft-hearted, she would probably be eaten up." ”

"That's also the mother of the Shen family's uncle, so you can't ignore it." Yang Ye frowned and said, "It is always possible to give food to eat." ”

An Ying smiled, lowered his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not a matter of a mouthful of food." ”

Yang Ye didn't speak, shook his head, took out a stack of paper from his arms, and said, "This is what I copied from the yamen according to your request." ”

An Ying called out in surprise, hurriedly took it, and said with a smile: "It's hard work Yang Gongzi." After thinking about it, he lowered his voice and said, "This won't have any effect, right?" ”

Yang Ye smiled and waved his hand and said, "It's all trivial, it's okay." ”

An Ying smiled and said, "I have to do some small business, otherwise I will be sitting on empty land if I stay in the capital forever." Small business is easy to start only after inquiring clearly. Even though it's a trivial matter, I have to be careful. Daddy is still in prison, and if something happens to me here, it's over. ”

"It's not easy for you either. If there is anything you need help with, just say. Yang Ye sympathized with An Ying, such a big girl, running outside for her father, and there were younger brothers and sisters at home. My sister, who is about the same age, thinks about which one has the best fat powder and which new material can cut the skirt.

An Ying returned to the room and slowly looked at the pile of copied papers, and when she lay down, she thought about what she had said during the day over and over again, always feeling that things were strange, and she fell asleep when she thought about it.

On the second day, Uncle Zhou took An Ying to see the house early. Considering that it may take a long time to stay in the capital, it is not cost-effective to stay in a hotel after all, so I asked Uncle Zhou to rent a house in Yahang.

Uncle Zhou is very proper, the price of this house is moderate, and the location is also good. The three-entry house is enough to live, and there is half an acre of vegetable land behind the house. The fly in the ointment is that there is no furniture in the house, so you have to buy it now, which is really inconvenient for renting a house, so it has not been rented out.

Thinking of buying furniture, An Ying had an idea in her heart, so she asked Uncle Zhou to do the leasing first and then go to the tooth store to have a look, and find a servant woman who cooks and sweeps.
