Chapter 46: Family Affairs
Everyone didn't expect that a Shen Yuyan would suddenly appear at this time, let alone that she would actually say such a thing, whether it was the people of the Shen family or Mrs. Gu, they were shocked.
"Bastard, what are you talking about!"
Shen Jun's face turned pale, and he slapped the table with his hand angrily, and yelled at Shen Yuyan.
Shen Yuyan has always been most afraid of the old lady, seeing him so angry, she subconsciously hid back, but when she thought of what Gu Ziyi said just now, she couldn't help but kneel down.
She couldn't take care of much, and hurriedly said to Shen Jun: "Grandfather, granddaughter and Gu Gongzi are truly in love with each other, ask grandfather to fulfill it!"
Gu Ziyi's face was very ugly, he didn't expect Shen Yuyan to come out halfway, and it would disrupt his plan, if he admitted that he had anything to do with Shen Yuyan at this time, he was afraid that the Shen family would never see him again.
He turned his head to Shen Yuyan and said, "Fifth Miss, please respect yourself, I have already confessed in the future, and there is only Yan Shu in my heart." ”
"No! That's not the case! You said before that if you and Shen Yanshu quit their marriage, they would marry me in the future!"
Shen Yuyan's heart was like a mess, she had thought of all kinds of possibilities on the way here, maybe it was just that the elders had to match Gu Ziyi and Shen Yanshu, but she didn't expect that even Gu Ziyi was so eager to resume this family affair with Shen Yanshu!
What is so good about Shen Yanshu!
"Come on, why don't you take the fifth lady down quickly!" Song said loudly to the maid behind him.
Shen Yuyan saw that those subordinates were approaching her and wanted to pull her down, she immediately stepped forward and grabbed Gu Ziyi's sleeve: "I'm not leaving...... Gu Gongzi, tell your grandfather and uncle about them, what you like is me, okay?"
Shen Jun looked at Shen Yuyan's actions, where would he not know the catty in the middle, he stared straight at Gu Ziyi, and said: "Gu Gongzi is really a good means, he actually played the two girls of my Shen family around!"
Gu Ziyi was startled, knowing that Shen Jun was really angry, so he hurriedly shook off Shen Yuyan's hand and argued: "Lord Shen, you misunderstood, there is nothing between me and Fifth Miss!"
"Yes, maybe it was the fifth lady who admired Ziyi, so she said such a thing, there are many girls in Chang'an City who want to marry Ziyi!" Mrs. Gu said.
"Hmph!" Shen Jun didn't have a good impression of the Gu family at all now, and scolded those subordinates in a loud voice, "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and bring the fifth miss back!"
The subordinate got the old lady's order, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Shen Yuyan and wanted to take him down.
"Slow down, grandfather. Shen Yanshu's voice came from the door.
Shen Yanshu was still wearing a long white dress as always, and walked into the lobby calmly, without even looking at Gu Ziyi, but stepped forward directly and saluted Shen Jun.
"Grandfather, what the fifth sister said is the truth, if Gu Gongzi comes to ask for marriage, it should be the fifth sister. Shen Yanshu said.
Everyone present was stunned for a moment.
Gu Ziyi said: "Yan Shu, are you still angry with me?"
Shen Yanshu didn't turn his head to look at him, but continued: "Gu Gongzi, there are so many good girls in Chang'an City, why hang yourself on my tree, I don't know, what do you think you are trying to do with our Shen family!"
"You ......" Gu Ziyi was embarrassed and annoyed by Shen Yanshu's words, but he still looked like a decent man and a gentleman on his face, "I just want to give you happiness." ”
"I'm sorry, you can't. Shen Yanshu turned his head to look at him, his eyes emotionless.
Gu Ziyi still wanted to continue to say something, but Mrs. Gu on the side had long lost her patience and stepped forward and dragged Gu Ziyi up from the ground.
"Ziyi and I came to discuss family affairs sincerely, but I didn't expect that your Shen family would unite to humiliate us like this, what kind of teasing of your sisters in the house, don't splash this dirty water casually! Since you don't know how to lift, we don't have to be so low-voiced! Don't blame our Hengguo Mansion for turning its face and not recognizing people in the future!"
"Mother......" Gu Ziyi wanted to interrupt Mrs. Gu's words.
But Mrs. Gu was used to being arrogant and indulgent on weekdays, so she naturally couldn't listen to persuasion, and said to Gu Ziyi with a calm face: "Ziyi, let's go!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked out with his feet raised.
"Eh, Mrs. Gu, there is something to say!" Song stood up and wanted to step forward to keep Mrs. Gu, but Shen Jianzhi held his wrist.
When the Song family saw that the old lady was still sitting on the main seat, he didn't intend to redeem it at all.
Gu Ziyi saw that his mother had walked out, he looked at Shen Jun with some embarrassment, and finally bowed and said, "My mother has no intention, I hope Lord Shen doesn't mind, we will visit another day!"
He turned his head to Shen Yanshu and said, "I will let you see my sincerity!"
Watching the Gu family's mother and son leave, the Shen family's faces were not good.
Shen Yuyan, who was being detained by her subordinates on the side, broke free of the restraints, ran to Shen Yanshu and reached out to fan her face, but Shen Yanshu grabbed her wrist steadily.
"Shen Yanshu, I'm going to tear your face! Gu Ziyi can only like me!" Shen Yuyan roared fiercely.
She wasted so much scheming, and finally ruined their family affair, and now, just because Shen Yanshu has recovered her appearance, the Gu family is going to resume this family affair, how can she not hate!
"Enough!" Shen Jun said angrily, "Isn't it shameful enough!"
Shen Yuyan was shocked, and she didn't dare to say it again, but her eyes were full of unwillingness that she couldn't hide!
Shen Yanshu directly shook off her hand and walked to the side indifferently, as if this matter had nothing to do with her.
"Come on, take Miss Fifth back, review your homework well, and don't take a step out of the room before the school exam!" Shen Jun said.
Shen Yuyan raised her head and continued to explain: "Grandfather, what I said is true, you have to believe me, Gu Gongzi really said that he likes me!"
"How can I, Shen Jun, have such a stupid granddaughter as you!" Shen Jun was so angry, "You go back and reflect on it, if not, don't take this year's school exam, and think about it behind closed doors until you figure it out!"
"Fifth Miss, let's go, don't embarrass the old slave. A woman stepped forward and said.
Although Shen Yuyan was unwilling, she could only glare at Shen Yanshu and then returned to her courtyard angrily.
Shen Jun was depressed, how did the Meng family teach his daughter, he actually taught Shen Yuyan to be so virtuous, and entered the lobby rudely in public, and he spoke amazingly, not at all of the ladies looked like they were beautiful!
Seeing Shen Jun's appearance, Shen Jianzhi comforted him and said: "Father, today's incident really can't be regarded as our Shen family's fault, don't take it too seriously, Kang Zhi will come back in a few days, and the affairs of Sister Shu and Sister Yan will naturally be handled by him." ”
Speaking of Shen Kangzhi, Shen Jun's face eased slightly, he waved his hand and said, "You guys go back first." ”
Shen Jianzhi and Song glanced at each other, and they both got up and saluted and retired.
"The three girls stayed. Shen Jun looked at Shen Yanshu, who was about to turn around and leave, and said.
Shen Yanshu said: "What else does grandfather command?"
Shen Jun looked at her and felt that this three girls had grown a lot unconsciously, and she was no longer the cowardly little girl who couldn't do anything.
Now she is calm and calm, and she can see things openly, but she follows Kangzhi's temperament.
"What do you think of the relationship with the Hengguo Mansion?" asked Shen Jun.
Although Shen Yanshu didn't know why he suddenly asked her this question, she still replied, "It's better not to get married." ”
Her tone was too affirmative, and Shen Jun was a little curious: "Why?"
"Let me ask my grandfather, with the status of the Hengguo Mansion, Gu Ziyi is still worried that he can't find a suitable daughter-in-law? Why do you want to come to our Shen family to marry again in a low voice?" Shen Yanshu said, "Whatever love is false, it is true that there is a plot, my father is about to be transferred out of Qingzhou, maybe it is not known where the Hengguo Mansion learned that the emperor intends to promote my father." ”
Having said this, how could Shen Jun still not understand what Shen Yanshu was trying to express.
If King Ning learns that the emperor wants to promote Shen Kangzhi, he will first use the people of Hengguo Mansion to hold the Shen family, and then the Shen family will be on King Ning's side!
The Shen family has never been involved in party disputes for so many years, but as Shen Kangzhi's official career rises higher and higher, it is naturally inevitable that he will be attracted by the princes and princes.
Shen Yanshu's thoughts coincided with Shen Jun's thoughts, and the reason why he dared to reject the Gu family so bluntly was because of his concerns.
If the emperor knew that the Shen family had taken refuge in King Ning at this time, with the emperor's suspicious nature, maybe he would send Shen Kangzhi as far away as possible.
Shen Jun looked at his granddaughter who was so transparent, although he felt doubtful, but he didn't suspect anything.
"Now that I have offended Heng Guogong, it will not be too smooth to think about your father's promotion. Shen Jun sighed.
Shen Yanshu said: "On the contrary, with my grandfather here, my father will be transferred in a few days." ”
Shen Jun just said: "Grandfather can't help your father with these things." ”
Shen Yanshu: "Grandfather, if you hand over an excerpt of the guilty plea when you go to court tomorrow, and explain today's events, let the emperor know that the Shen family and Heng Guogong have a disagreement because of the marriage, not only will Heng Guogong not be able to do anything in his father's position, but he can also win the emperor's trust." ”
Shen Jun was stunned and stared at Shen Yanshu in surprise.
She actually thought of a countermeasure, and with Shen Jun's understanding of the emperor and Heng Guogong, this plan was feasible.
After being looked at by him like this, Shen Yanshu realized that he seemed to have said a little too much, and he couldn't help but feel a little empty: "This is just his granddaughter's casual nonsense, and it can't be taken seriously." ”
Shen Jun withdrew his inquiring gaze, but based on the method Shen Yanshu said, this was indeed their best choice at the moment.
Today, Mrs. Gu's gaffe will become a beneficial shelter for their Shen family, in the eyes of others, the Shen family is just forced by the pressure of the Hengguo Mansion, and the family has become an enemy instead of doing it. Shen Jun's plea is the right way to clean himself up.
