Shen Jingshu knew it was not good when she heard the news, and she was very anxious, "Where's the mother? Have you gone?"
"Madam is preparing a carriage for the trip, Miss, what should I do? Madam has a big belly!"
"Come on, let's go take a look!"
When Shen Jingshu arrived, Shan Banyan had already ordered the carriage, Shen Jingshu looked at her mother's round belly, and was really worried, "Mother!"
"Shu'er, why are you here?" Seeing her daughter coming, Shan Yuerong felt a little uncomfortable in her eyes. Shan Yuerong also felt the attitude when the Qi family came just now. It must be a bad thing. Daughter knows! It's just that the current Shen Jingshu, how can she really be a child who doesn't know much about the world? She has always asked Chunxiao to pay attention to Shan Banyue's situation, just in case, since she already knew what happened today, she definitely wouldn't just let it go, "Mom, where are you going? "Shan Banyan has a big belly now, Shen Jingshu can't let Shan Banyan go alone, and be bullied!
"Hehe, mother has some things to go out for a while, how about you stay at home obediently?" She didn't say anything, Shan Banyan didn't want her daughter to know those bad things.
"Mother, I want to go with you!" People from the Qi family actually came to call the mother with a big belly, something must have happened, she can't just let it go!
"Shu'er, be obedient, wait for me at home, okay?" Shan Yuerong insisted this time, she didn't know what happened to the Qi family, but the tone of the Qi family was secretive. I also know it won't be a good thing!
"Mother, are you going to Qi's house? I want to go, and I also want to go to Xueyan!" Seeing that Shan Yuerong didn't mean to say anything, Shen Jingshu wouldn't just let it go.
"Shu'er, you?" Shan Banyue was also surprised that Shen Jingshu knew about this so quickly, but now it's hard to refuse.
"Mom, just let me go, I will be obedient!" Holding Shan Banyan, Shen Jingshu had an attitude that she would not give up if the other party didn't let her go, and Shan Banyan had no choice but to let her go. Shen Jingshu went, "Well, you can go, but after a while you go to Xueyan, mother has something to deal with!" Shan Banyue also knows her daughter's stubbornness, and if she doesn't let Shen Jingshu go today, she herself I'm afraid I won't be able to leave the house, Shan Banyan doesn't know what's going on, of course I have to go and see, it's easy to solve!
"Mother, don't worry, I know it!" Of course Shen Jingshu wanted to be obedient at the moment, so what if Shan Banyan didn't take her there
It’s not enough to get there, but Banyan Tree has the final say! She won't let anyone bully her mother!
But what happened to the Qi family
Thinking of Zhang Xiangling's entanglement with Shen Wenhua before, Shen Jingshu was a little worried. But Zhang Xiangling has calmed down these days, is it possible that the other party still doesn't give up
…
Along the way, Shan Yuerong and Shen Jingshu had their own concerns, and they came to Qi Mansion. Although the people in Qi Mansion greeted them with smiles, they were obviously less enthusiastic. Shen Jingshu saw the reactions of these people in the There was some uneasiness in his eyes, and even Shan Yuerong's face was solemn, "Where is Mrs. Qi?"
"Mrs. Shen, Madam is waiting for you, please come with your servants!" Taking Shan Banyan to the inner house, the girl's expression was a little weird along the way, and Shan Banyan made a good inquiry, and the girl hid it up This made Shan Yuerong feel more and more uneasy. When he came to the inner courtyard, he saw Mrs. Qi sitting there angrily. Seeing Shan Banyan coming, she also breathed a sigh of relief, " Madam Shen, are you here?"
"Madam Qi, you called me over in such a hurry, but what happened?"
"Mrs. Shen, this..." Mrs. Qi wanted to say, but seeing that Shen Jingshu also followed, Mrs. Qi's face was a bit ugly, Shan Yuerong naturally saw Mrs. Qi's scruples, "Shu'er, are you Said you want to find Xueyan? Niang and Mrs. Qi have something to say, can you go to Zhao Xueyan to play?"
"..." Shen Jingshu really wanted to say something bad, but seeing Mrs. Qi acting as if she would not speak unless she left, Shen Jingshu had no choice but to agree temporarily, "Well, mother, if you need me, I'll go first." Look for Snow Goose!"
"Well, Chunmei, take good care of Miss!"
"Yes, ma'am!" Madam Qi seemed relieved until seeing the two leave. At this moment, Shen Jingshu, who walked out of the gate, quickly left the sight of several people, and finally stopped in a corner, looking at Chunmei a little confused, "Miss, what's wrong?"
"Chunmei, I'll go to Xueyan first, go back and see what Mrs. Qi and Mother said, and then tell me right away, do you understand?" Shen Jingshu's face was serious, and Chunmei had to pay attention, " Yes, miss, this servant is going!" Chunmei could see the strangeness just now, so she was naturally worried.
"Be careful, don't let people see it!"
"Miss, don't worry, the slaves are very familiar with this place!" She smiled, Chunmei was considered very stable among the maidservants, otherwise Shen Jingshu would not have chosen to let Chunmei come here today.
Seeing Chunmei go back quietly, Shen Jingshu turned to look for Qi Xueyan. On the way, I was always rejoicing. Fortunately, I often came to Qi's house and was familiar with Qi's house. Otherwise, it would be inconvenient for me to be followed by people from Qi's family.
…
Shan Yuerong on the other side of course didn't know what her little daughter was thinking, now that Shen Jingshu was gone, Shan Yuerong saw Mrs. Qi's expression was not very good, and her heart sank, "Madam Qi, but what happened? , so you called me here in a hurry?"
"Hey, Mrs. Shen, I'm sorry!" Sighing, Mrs. Qi's eyes were a little annoyed and guilty, and she really couldn't say some words.
"What's going on? Mrs. Qi, tell me!"
"Hey, it's all my ignorant niece..." After saying the matter briefly, Shan Banyan knew that Shen Wenhua came to Qi's mansion to discuss matters with Master Qi today, but he never thought of breaking into Zhang Xiangling's boudoir by mistake. Zhang Xiangling was taking a bath at that time, but Shen Wenhua took a serious look! After Zhang Xiangling learned about it, she was ashamed and resentful that she was looked at by others, her innocence was ruined, and she cried and wanted to marry Shen Wenhua! It's getting louder now!
This incident happened in the Qi residence, Madam Qi's face was not bright, she also found out about this incident later, it was Zhang Xiangling who used several tricks to lure Shen Wenhua over, but Shen Wenhua thought that the person inside was Master Qi, how could he know it was Zhang Xiangling? Mrs. Qi was also very annoyed by her niece's lack of self-respect, but everything happened, could Mrs. Qi just sit back and ignore it? Now it's time to get down to business!
Madam Qi had to cover up for her niece, so as not to lose the face of the Qi family. After she finished speaking, Madam Qi only felt her face was dry, and she was too embarrassed to face Shan Banyan. , "This matter is also my fault. The loose management of this inner house will cause such a thing. But you also know that this woman's innocence is more important than her life, not to mention that my niece is the elder brother Liang. The concubine's daughter is not bad in itself, and my elder brother loves her very much. To be honest, I brought her here this time, and I also wanted to show her a good marriage. I never thought of such a thing ,Why… "
When Mrs. Qi spoke, her confidence was obviously lacking. Seeing that Shan Banyan's face changed, Mrs. Qi was even more embarrassed, "Mrs. Shen, look at this..." In fact, Mrs. Qi didn't want Zhang Xiangling to marry Shen Wenhua. What should I do if I still want to be in-laws
Wouldn't it be embarrassing in the future
"Mrs. Qi, is what you said true?" Although she knew that something must have happened, Shan Banyan never imagined that this was the case!
how can that be possible
"Mrs. Shen, how dare I joke about something like this? I'm really sorry about this, and I never thought of it..." Mrs. Qi was too embarrassed to say the rest. My niece did such a stupid thing, and Mrs. Qi's face was darkened, "That girl is crying in the room at the moment, saying that her innocence has been ruined, and if she doesn't marry Master Shen, she will be a sister-in-law. I can't help it. Madam Shen, look at this..." Even if Madam Qi is not happy, she can only facilitate this matter. This incident happened in her family, and it got out, but what should I do
She still has sons and daughters, so she can't be ruined just because of this niece!
Shan Banyan is already a little confused now, but thinking that this matter must be dealt with, Shan Banyan can only restrain himself, "Where is my master now?"
"My master is with Master Shen. My niece has been crying all the time after something like this happened. There is really no way!" Zhang Xiangling cried violently when something happened. Let Shen Wenhua just leave
"Madam Qi, can you take me to meet my master? I have to discuss this matter with him!"
"Alright, Mrs. Shen, come with me!" In fact, Mrs. Qi didn't want Banyan Tree to meet Shen Wenhua alone. Just now Zhang Xiangling was crying, and Shen Wenhua had made it clear that she would not marry Zhang Xiangling. The master stopped him, and Shen Wenhua had already left.
But they are a husband and wife, and this matter should be given a chance because of emotion and reason. Mrs. Qi couldn't stop her, so she continued to persuade on the way, "Mrs. Shen, no one is willing for such a thing to happen. But A woman's reputation is greater than the sky. Although Master Shen didn't mean it, he still ruined my niece's reputation. That child is high-spirited. If this matter is not handled properly, I am also worried! My elder brother loves this niece very much. , I won’t be able to explain it when the time comes! Moreover, this matter involves Mr. Shen, and if it gets out at that time, I’m afraid it will be bad... Both of you and I have unmarried children, Mrs. Shen, you have to think carefully about it. It's..."
Along the way, Mrs. Qi tried her best to highlight the importance of fame, and even implied the impact of this matter on Shen Wenhua, just to make Shan Yuerong pay attention to it, and not to solve it casually, so as not to really lose this person.
"Madam Qi, don't worry, I will think about it myself!" Shan Banyan also understood Madam Qi's thoughts. But she and Shen Wenhua have been husband and wife for many years, and they also understand each other's thoughts. Although she is not jealous, she also hopes that she can grow old with Shen Wenhua and never leave. Of course, she also hopes that there will be others to intervene between them!
"Mrs. Shen, it's good that you understand, hey..." Sighing, this incident really made Mrs. Qi feel ashamed, and she was not ashamed to face Shan Banyan. But when something happens, it needs to be resolved. Of course, she doesn't want it to affect her children.
What happened last time has already done a lot of damage to their family's reputation. If something like this happens again, what should we do? How will her Qi family gain a foothold in Jiangnan
…
Along the way, the two had their own thoughts, Shan Banyan was worried about how to deal with this matter, and Madam Qi was also very worried about Shan Banyan's attitude, and finally arrived at Master Qi's study, watching the two play chess, Madam Qi Seeing Shen Wenhua sitting there with no expression on his face, his heart became more and more uneasy, "Master, Master Shen, Mrs. Shen is here!"
"Rong'er..." Hearing that Shan Banyan was coming, Shen Wenhua hurriedly got up, ignoring the presence of outsiders at the moment, and quickly came to Shan Banyong, his face was full of apology, "Why are you here? "When something like this happened, Shen Wenhua also secretly hated himself for being careless. He originally wanted to deal with it himself, but he never thought that the members of the Qi family would go to Shan Yuerong. Looking at the worry on his beloved wife's face, and With that bulging stomach, Shen Wenhua felt more and more guilty, "Rong'er, I..."
"Master, don't say anything, I understand!" I was still a little worried at first, but looking at Shen Wenhua's eyes, Shan Banyan already knew Shen Wenhua's attitude.
"Hehe, Mrs. Shen is here, sit down quickly!" Master Qi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ban Yuerong coming. To be honest, if he left Shen Wenhua here, Shen Wenhua would ignore him and would not listen to his persuasion. He was almost at the end of his rope!
Hey, it's all this niece who makes him ashamed, if he had known, he wouldn't have been allowed to come here!
"Come here, serve tea. Mrs. Shen has been working hard all the way here. Mrs. Shen should take a rest first!" He was also trying to persuade Shen Wenhua just now, but Shen Wenhua never let go. Master Qi now also hopes that Shan Banyan can let go, so as not to He will have no face in the future.
"Thank you, Master Qi, it's just that something like this happened today, how can I still be in the mood to drink tea?" Now that I know Shen Wenhua's attitude, Banyan Tree doesn't have to worry.
"Hey, this matter is also a misunderstanding. Who knew that Mr. Shen would go to my niece's boudoir. This, this is really..." I also blame the servant for being careless, how could he lead people randomly, "Now that this happened, It has to be dealt with, isn't it? Otherwise, how can it be spread out?"
"Master Qi, as I said just now, the servants of your house took me to that place. I thought it was your house, so I went in. I never thought it was Miss Zhang. I am very sorry for that. But I didn't see anything just now, and now Miss Zhang is crying and asking me to take responsibility, what's the meaning of this?" He knew something was wrong when he entered just now, so he turned around quickly, but he didn't think that Zhang Xiangling still shamelessly said he saw it. Shen Wenhua wouldn't admit it if he touched the other party's body!
"Master Shen, that's what I said, but the reputation of my daughter's family is greater than life. Now that my poor niece has been seen by you, if you are irresponsible, she will have to twist her hair and become a sister-in-law. Master Shen, Are you really cruel? It won't benefit you or me if this matter gets out!" After all, it was Shen Wenhua who ruined the reputation of others. If it got out, although the Qi family would be affected, Shen Wenhua couldn't be spared either!
"Are you threatening me?" Hearing what Master Qi said, Shen Wenhua's face suddenly changed.
"Master Shen, don't get me wrong, the master is just in a hurry to do this. He also loves my niece!" Seeing that her master can't speak, Mrs. Qi hurried out to smooth things over. Of course, she didn't want the two families to quarrel because of this matter. Stiff.
Mrs. Qi winked at Mr. Qi while talking, and Mr. Qi also knew that he was in a hurry, so he hurriedly explained, "Yes, yes, that's not what I mean, am I in a hurry? Mr. Shen, don't be surprised It is!"
"Master Qi, it's fine if you don't mean it that way. What happened today was just an accident. Only a few people know about it. If you don't tell me, I won't tell you. The servants in the house are also restrained. Is it possible that it can be spread outside? Or does Master Qi want to take this opportunity to promote something?" Of course Shen Wenhua knew that he couldn't show weakness right now, otherwise how could he be worthy of his wife and daughter when there was one more person in the family
"Master Shen, how can you do this? You don't want to be responsible if you do this? You have seen my niece's body, how will I behave in the future? How can I get married when others know about it?" Master Qi also became anxious. , the matter happened in his house, if it is not handled properly, it will arouse the resentment of his brother-in-law, then what should we do? His brother-in-law is not so easy to get along with!
"Master Qi, as I said just now, I didn't see anything. Could it be that you keep pouring dirty water on me?" Do!
"Master Shen, you..." Master Qi was also angry and almost ran away. Fortunately, Madam Qi stopped him in time, "Master!" , now with a smiling face to Shen Wenhua, but I don't want this matter to be so trivial, "Master Shen, what you said is a bit too much? Since ancient times, women's reputation is greater than the sky, are you really so cruel? My niece is also talented in appearance, even if she gets married, she is definitely not bad, she has been wronged because you can only be a child for you, can you still humiliate her like this?"
Compared with Master Qi, Mrs. Qi's words are gentler, but the words are also precise. Looking at Mrs. Qi's determined face, Shen Wenhua also knows that this matter is not good, "Women's reputation is important, but I was just careless today. What's more, I didn't see anything, Madam Qi, why do you hold on to it so hard?" It is absolutely impossible for Shen Wenhua to marry Zhang Xiangling!
Everything today, even if he didn't investigate, he would know that he was being plotted against. With such a scheming woman, he would never let the other party enter the Shen's residence and make things difficult for him!
"Master Shen, it's not that I'm holding on to it, it's just that besides the few people present, there are also a few maids who know about this matter? Can you guarantee to keep their mouths shut? What's more, my niece is not bad either. , she is willing to commit herself to be your little girl, so why don't you still despise her?" The Qi family can't afford to lose this person, so Madam Qi must let Zhang Xiangling enter the Shen residence, "Madam Shen, you She's also a woman, so let's compare my heart to my heart. My niece is in such a beautiful age, but this kind of thing has happened to her. If the news spreads, how do you make her behave? It's better to let her twist her hair and become a sister-in-law, so as not to be looked down upon by others. !" After Madam Qi finished speaking, she wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, knowing that there was no way to deal with Shen Wenhua, so Madam Qi had no choice but to play the sympathy card like Shan Banyan.
If Shan Yuerong really refuses to accept Zhang Xiangling, then Shan Yuerong is jealous and cruel, after all, it is really cruel for such a young woman to force her to be a sister-in-law!
"Madam Qi, don't worry, we can easily discuss this matter!" Shan Banyan was also unwilling to let Zhang Xiangling enter the mansion, but now that Mrs. Qi has said so, there are some things that Shan Banyan really can't say, so she had to Find a way to stabilize the other party first, and then solve it slowly!
But Banyan Tree is also very troubled, and in the bottom of her heart, she also blames Mrs. Qi and Master Qi. If they didn't want Shen Wenhua to come today, and they were so careless, how could such a thing happen? It almost affected Shen Wenhua's reputation!
"Can I not be in a hurry? My niece was crying so pitifully just now, and I'm still letting the servant girl watch over me, lest she do something, how can I explain to her parents?" Mrs. Qi put down the veil, The circles of her eyes were red, seeing that Shen Wenhua didn't speak at the moment, Shan Yuerong also looked hesitant, and Mrs. Qi also thought there was a joke, so she felt a little more at ease.
"I can understand Mrs. Qi's mood, but my master doesn't want to do this. Miss Zhang can't be wronged, right? She is still so young, and there will be a better future waiting for her in the future. Why don't Mrs. Qi talk to her about it? If she agrees, we are willing to keep this matter in our hearts, and we will help her in her marriage in the future, okay?" Shan Banyan would not be so magnanimous to share her husband with others, let alone This Zhang Xiangling gave Shan Banyan a very bad feeling from the first time they met, of course Shan Banyan was even more unhappy.
Seeing Mrs. Qi listening seriously, Shan Yuerong pulled Mrs. Qi, her words were full of persuasion, "Mrs. Qi, think about it, Ms. Zhang's character and appearance are very good. If you are a little girl for your husband, wouldn't you be wronging her? I heard that there are several good families in the south of the Yangtze River with good sons, and those wives have mentioned this matter to me before, if Mrs. Qi doesn't dislike it, I would like to help Ms. Zhang take a look..."Shan Banyong said The meaning in the words is that she is willing to be a matchmaker. As the wife of the magistrate of her two provinces, the people she can contact are naturally the upper class, and she is of course an excellent young talent as a matchmaker. When Banyan said that, she suddenly felt a little loose. Shan Banyan was about to go further, but someone interrupted, "Madam, madam, it's not good, Miss Tang threw herself into the lake!"
"What did you say?" Mrs. Qi was startled when she heard it, and she immediately stood up without caring about anything else, "Didn't you just let you watch it? What's going on?"
"Ma'am, Miss Tang said that she could not bear the humiliation, she would rather leave innocently, servant girl, servant girl can't stop her!" The girl was also frightened, now her face was pale, she was afraid that something might happen to Zhang Xiangling.
"Hurry up, take me to have a look!" Fearing that people would die in the house and the matter would become even bigger, Madam Qi left in a hurry, Shan Banyan was not at ease, and followed, Shen Wenhua and When Master Qi saw him, he naturally wanted to go, "Rong'er, slow down, and watch out for your stomach!" Shen Wenhua carefully supported Shan Banyong, not feeling the news of Zhang Xiangling's throwing into the lake at all.
Isn't this just to force him to marry the other party? However, he would never marry such a scheming woman!
"Wenhua, you say this Ms. Zhang..." The other party has done this, if they still refuse to let the other party in, when the time comes, they don't know how others will arrange it, Shan Banyan is really worried.
"Don't worry, she'll be fine!" This person was planning to marry him, how could he die so easily? Shen Wenhua only has disgust for Zhang Xiangling in his heart.
"Hey, if something like this happens, if it gets out, what should I do? Wenhua, stop talking for a while, let me deal with it!" Shen Wenhua's reputation has always been very good in recent years, They are all rated excellent, otherwise how could they be the prefects of these two provinces? If there is a scandal, the future will be ruined. Shan Yuerong didn't want Shen Wenhua to ruin her future for herself, so she would give in when she had to.
"Rong'er, you can't be soft-hearted about this matter. This woman has a deep heart. I think this incident is also very strange. It must have something to do with her. If she is really allowed to get what she wants, how can there be peace in our house?"
"Wen Hua, what do you mean?"
"There are some things I didn't want to tell you before, because I was worried about your worries, but now, I can't hide it anymore..." Along the way, Shen Wenhua simply told Zhang Xiangling's overtures to him, and also said today Shan Yuerong heard what happened, and immediately looked surprised, "She really has such thoughts for you?" It was just a guess before, but now Shen Wenhua personally said that Shan Banyan only thinks that Zhang Xiangling is really hateful!
"Isn't it? Today I obviously didn't see her body, but she insisted on it, and even called someone else loudly. The purpose is obvious. So Rong'er, you must not soften your heart this time, you know? I don't want the future You and Shu'er will be tricked by her again!"
"I thought it was your excuse before, but I didn't expect it to be so. How could this Miss Zhang be so shameless and do such a thing? Doesn't she know that this will shame her relatives? "
"It's just a little girl born out of a concubine who wants to fly on a branch and become a phoenix. It won't be a big deal. Let's go and have a look later, and then we'll talk about it!"
"Wenhua, I know that, Miss Zhang has such a character, I can't let her in no matter what!" Shan Banyan is kind, but she is not stupid, and Zhang Xiangling's actions have already violated her conscience. Bottom line, how could she really let the other party in
"It's good if you understand?" Seeing that Banyan Tree had lost that thought, Shen Wenhua also heaved a sigh of relief, thinking about how to solve this problem perfectly, but never thought that when they all arrived at the lake, everyone would be stunned up.
…
The lake in winter is very icy, and Zhang Xiangling really paid for it. She actually jumped in such a cold day. She wanted to use this to make matters worse and force Shen Wenhua to marry her, but she never thought that she would marry her. She was rescued, and it was a man. What's more, her clothes were in a mess because of struggling in the water. The man didn't know whether it was intentional or not, but he even took off her clothes. At this moment, she Wearing only an undershirt, being held in the arms of the man, Zhang Xiangling's confidence was completely replaced by anger at the moment, "Who are you? What are you going to do?" One thing, Zhang Xiangling pushed away the man who was hugging her, but when she pushed away, the inner garment became loose, revealing the little belly pocket inside, Zhang Xiangling was trying to cover it up, but she never wanted to see that she didn't want to be there in her life See people this time!
"Aunt, Uncle, Master Shen... Ah, go away, go away, what are you doing?" Fortunately, Zhang Xiangling was still sensible, knowing how to push away the other party, and hurriedly protected her body, which supported her pale and weak body , her eyes filled with tears, "I, I don't know what's going on, I, I'm dead!" No matter how thick-skinned Zhang Xiangling was, she was only a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl. How can she bear it? I had no choice but to win sympathy again, so as not to be underestimated!
She quickly got up and ran towards the lake again. Although the lake was very icy and cold, Zhang Xiangling knew that she had only this way to go now, but she did not expect that what she was greeted with were such cold words!
"What are you going to do? Isn't it enough to be ashamed?" Seeing Zhang Xiangling like this, Master Qi felt that he had no face, his face was flushed with anger, and he wished he could send this niece back as soon as possible!
"Hurry up and hold her, is it possible to let her jump into the lake again?" Mrs. Qi was also angry, seeing Zhang Xiangling's disheveled appearance, her face was flushed with anger, she really hoped that Zhang Xiangling would disappear immediately. Don't be ashamed here!
"Wuwu, don't stop me, I'm dead, I'm dead..." Crying, Zhang Xiangling tried her best to break free, but she had just jumped into the lake, her body was weak, and she didn't have much strength, how could she break free
What can we do now? She was looked at by other men like this, and even touched just now, how could she marry Shen Wenhua? Isn't her hard work today all in vain
"Okay, stop making trouble, shut up!" Mrs. Qi only felt a headache, but Shen Wenhua still didn't let her go at this time, "Mrs. Qi, Miss Zhang is seen by so many people now, is it possible to return the favor?" Want me to be responsible?" Shen Wenhua didn't give any face to Zhang Xiangling's face when she heard it, and her body shook violently. Madam Qi couldn't bear it when she saw it, but now so many people have seen this situation, What else can she say
"Mrs. Qi, Xiaosheng was abrupt just now in a hurry. Although it happened suddenly, Xiaosheng just met Miss Zhang's body just now. He couldn't tell the difference between men and women. Xiaosheng is willing to take responsibility!" A scholar who had saved Zhang Xiangling just now was not to be outdone, Kneeling down immediately, with such a dignified appearance, what else can Mrs. Qi say
Touching her head with a headache, Mrs. Qi was really about to explode, with so many eyes staring at her, could Mrs. Qi really force Shen Wenhua to marry Zhang Xiangling
"Get up first, we'll talk about this later!"
"No, Mrs. Qi, you won't get up if you don't promise Xiaosheng! Although Xiaosheng is married, he is also a responsible person. Xiaosheng will not leave Miss Zhang alone!"
"You..." Zhang Xiangling was very dissatisfied when she heard that the other party was going to marry her, but she couldn't say anything in this situation, but when she heard that the other party was already married, how could Zhang Xiangling not speak, "I won't marry you Yes!" This person is nothing more than a scholar, without any fame, how could she be a concubine for him
"Miss Zhang, Xiaosheng offended me in the water just now, and I have skin-to-skin relationship with you. Don't worry, Miss Zhang, I will treat you well in the future!" After the Xiaosheng finished speaking, his face was a little shy. Thinking that such a good thing will be my turn.
Thinking of seeing a note when he was walking just now, the thing written on it, telling himself that something good happened here, that Xiaosheng was full of gratitude.
The woman in front of her is an official lady. Although she is only a concubine, she is said to be favored. When he marries her, won't he worry about his future fame? What's more, he also got money, isn't this a two-fold thing
"You, you are talking nonsense!" Zhang Xiangling was about to die of anger, pointing at the scholar, really did not expect that in this world, there are people with such a thick skin!
"Miss Zhang, don't be embarrassed. Everyone was watching just now. Xiaosheng carried you ashore. I know that Miss Zhang has wronged you, but don't worry, I will treat you well!" The sincerity of the face made Zhang Xiangling almost explode with anger, "You..."
"Okay, Xiangling, don't talk about it anymore, I have my own opinion on this matter!" Mrs. Qi can't make people laugh anymore. Now that something like this happened, Zhang Xiangling couldn't marry Shen Wenhua anyway. Of course Mrs. Qi does not allow Zhang Xiangling to mess around!
"Auntie, I..."
"Shut up!" She gave Zhang Xiangling a warning look. Mrs. Qi didn't want this useless niece to really ruin the reputation of the Qi family. Seeing Mrs. Qi's reaction, Zhang Xiangling knew that she might be doomed this time. Panicked, "No, Master Shen, please help me, you also saw my body, you can't ignore me like this!" Zhang Xiangling couldn't care about other things at the moment, so she had to ask Shen Wenhua for help. Shen Wenhua would help her for the sake of her pity, but he never thought that what she did had already made Shen Wenhua very angry, "Miss Zhang, don't talk nonsense, when did I see you?"
"You, you can't do this to me!"
"Okay, I still have things to do, Master Qi, Mrs. Qi, I'll take Rong'er to say goodbye first, and I'll visit another day!"
"Okay, Master Shen is making you laugh at something like this. Just pretend that I didn't say anything about it, and I hope you don't take offense, Master Shen. I had no choice but to..." Zhang Xiangling made a fuss With such a big joke, Mrs. Qi felt very guilty thinking that she wanted to force Shen Wenhua to marry Zhang Xiangling just now, and she had to smile at Shen Wenhua, for fear that Shen Wenhua would mind.
"I understand, Mrs. Qi, I hope you can handle this matter well, and don't affect the friendship between the two governments." Mrs. Qi understands Shen Wenhua's meaning, and she can't allow Mrs. Qi to say "No ", "Master Shen, don't worry, I'll save it."
"No, don't, aunt, you can't do this to me!" After listening to the conversation between the two, Zhang Xiangling held up her strength to resist, but after all, she was a thin woman, who had been soaked in cold water for so long just now, and now After being hit, how can you bear it
"Okay, Miss Futang, go back to the room, I'll deal with this matter later!"
"No, aunt, don't..." Zhang Xiangling became anxious, her eyes darkened, and she fell into a coma. However, her coma didn't cause much reaction, Madam Qi didn't seem to notice, she just ordered her to be sent back, and continued to smile at Shen Wenhua and Shan Yuerong, "Master Shen, Madam Shen, I'll see you off!"
"No need, Mrs. Qi still has a lot of things to deal with, so we won't bother you with family affairs. Let's leave!" Shen Wenhua's attitude let Mrs. Qi know that if she handles this matter unsatisfactorily, the friendship between the two families will be ruined. Now, Mrs. Qi really hates Zhang Xiangling's troublesome things right now, but she can only smile dryly, "Well, I'll come to the door to apologize another day, and I'm really sorry today!"
"Madam Qi, please be busy!" Supporting Shan Yuerong, Shen Wenhua left, although Shen Wenhua did not expect this to happen, but it also solved his troubles, Shen Wenhua was still very happy.
Shan Banyan also breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, thinking about Mrs. Qi's face just now, there is no need to worry too much about this matter, "Wen Hua, let's go find Shu'er!"
"Well, good!" The two were about to go to find Shen Jingshu, when they saw the little girl coming this way, seeing the two of them, the little girl ran very fast, "Father, mother!"
"Hehe, why is Shu'er here?"
"I heard that something happened, come and take a look!" Looking at the direction of the backyard, Shen Jingshu had a weird smile in her eyes.
"It's nothing, let's go, Shu'er, let's go home!" This matter can't be let her know, Shen Wenhua and Shan Yuerong have always protected Shen Jingshu very well, of course they don't want Shen Jingshu to know these things .
"Okay, let's go home, hehe..." Seeing that Shan Banyan and Shen Wenhua didn't have any embarrassing expressions on their faces, Shen Jingshu felt relieved, holding Shan Banyan with one hand and Shen Wenhua with the other, the family of three left happily up.
Shan Banyan and Shen Jingshu both looked worried when they came, but they were very happy when they left, but it was very difficult for Zhang Xiangling.
Even though she fainted, things still couldn't be changed. When she woke up, Zhang Xiangling saw Mrs. Qi's cold face, "Auntie, auntie, save me, I don't want to marry that person as my concubine!" Zhang Xiangling has always She is arrogant, otherwise she wouldn't have fallen in love with Shen Wenhua, she always wanted to marry high, how could she be willing to marry a scholar with no fame as a concubine
"Auntie, please, Daddy asked you to bring me to Jiangnan to let you find me a good marriage. If Daddy knows that you married me to a scholar as a concubine, Daddy will definitely be very angry!" Seeing that Mrs. Qi kept silent, just staring at herself, Zhang Xiangling felt a little guilty for no reason, "Auntie, I am also the daughter of an official family, how can I marry someone who has no fame? Let alone being a concubine? In the future, others will know What do you think of us?"
In any case, she would never marry that man, never!
Zhang Xiangling thought about a lot of rhetoric and pointed it out, but she never thought about it. In the end, Mrs. Qi kept silent. Zhang Xiangling's voice became smaller and smaller, and her heart became more and more uneasy. Looking at Mrs. Qi's cold expression, it seemed that she didn't know herself. , Zhang Xiangling had no reason, her heart was full of fear, "Auntie..."
"Don't call me aunt, I don't have a shameless niece like you!"
"Auntie, I was also forced. How would I know that that person is so shameless, and in the name of saving me, he actually treated me so frivolously? He also asked me to commit myself to him as a concubine. How could he be worthy? I How can you be a concubine?"
"You don't want to be a concubine, so why are you doing this today?"
"aunt… "
"I told you not to call me aunt!"
"I..." wanted to say something, but looking at Mrs. Qi's insightful eyes, Zhang Xiangling suddenly became timid, and could only kneel down and beg for mercy, "Auntie, help me, I don't want to be a concubine!"
"Didn't you try everything possible to be a concubine for Mr. Shen? Why are you not willing to be a concubine now that you have changed someone else? Do you think that whoever you are, you can choose anyone?"
"aunt!"
"Shut up!" If it wasn't for her brother's sake, Mrs. Qi really wanted to seal Zhang Xiangling's mouth, and now she looked at Zhang Xiangling with disgust, "If I had known today, why did you plot against Master Shen?" You should have expected such consequences at that time, and now you are just reaping the consequences. I have already written to my elder brother to inform him of all this. You have been living in this room for a few days to reflect on yourself, and wait for the reply from your elder brother. I will prepare for your marriage with that scholar!"
"Auntie, you can't treat me like this! How is that person worthy?"
"Why don't you deserve it? You already have a physical relationship. Didn't you clamor to marry Mr. Shen as your concubine before? It's just that Mr. Shen didn't look at your body, but let others look at it. Don't want to?"
"Auntie, if you do this, won't you be afraid of being poked in the back? If you marry your niece like this, you won't be afraid that others will find out. Will my cousins be unable to behave in the future?" Zhang Xiangling couldn't believe it, Mrs. Qi would really do this!
"You can rest assured that if you are not the daughter of the Zhang family, then everything will be easy." Seeing that Zhang Xiangling did not repent, Mrs. Qi had lost her last patience.
"Auntie, what do you mean?"
"It's been said that I don't have a shameless niece like you, and I'm not your aunt either. Do you think big brother can tolerate you when something like this happens? Now you can take care of yourself!"
"What are you going to do?" After hearing what Madam Qi said, Zhang Xiangling's eyes were full of disbelief, and she couldn't imagine that these people would treat her like this!
"I'm sure you know what to do, you all look at her so hard, if you let her out of this room, be careful with your heads!"
"Yes, ma'am!"
After Madam Qi gave her orders, she left without even looking at Zhang Xiangling. Zhang Xiangling knew that if Madam Qi really left, she would really be doomed, so she hurried to catch up, "Auntie, you can't do this to me!"
"Auntie, no, Auntie, father won't treat me like this!"
"Auntie, please, I know I was wrong, please, please forgive me!"
"Auntie, I really don't want to be that person's concubine!"
…
Begging hard, but no matter what Zhang Xiangling said, Mrs. Qi was determined to ignore Zhang Xiangling and let people watch her closely. Now that she has to face her elder brother's anger, Mrs. Qi can't wait to kill Zhang Xiangling immediately. How can she help her
Zhang Xiangling could only watch Madam Qi leave, crying until she became hoarse, and she couldn't ask for any help. Zhang Xiangling really regretted her such a risky plan!
However, there is no medicine for regret in this world. A few days later, Master Zhang wrote back, knowing that Zhang Xiangling had done such a thing, which really hurt the face of the Zhang family, so Master Zhang discussed with Mrs. Qi and said that Zhang Xiangling was ill. Heavy, in the end, Zhang Xiangling's death was directly announced, and Mrs. Qi also kept a tight lid on the scandal about that time. In the end, because Zhang Xiangling died, she was buried in the dust, never to be seen again.
And that scholar naturally got a lot of money from Mrs. Qi, and since then disappeared in the south of the Yangtze River. As for where he went, no one knows.
This matter ended quickly under Mrs. Qi's high-handed policy, and no news was leaked. Shen Jingshu couldn't help but sigh when she learned about all this. Although she expected that Mrs. Qi would definitely take action, she never thought that she would be so cruel. !
But that's right, if Mrs. Qi wasn't such a decisive person, how could she help Master Qi to sit in the position of second-rank official in her previous life? You must know that Master Qi is an idiot who can't afford it!
"Miss, Madam told you to come over!" Chunmei looked at Shen Jingshu, for some reason, she always felt that what happened in Qi Mansion that day had something to do with Shen Jingshu, especially at that time when she asked people to go out. The more Chunmei thought about the notes and money thrown at the house, the more suspicious she became, but these days Shen Jingshu was very calm, and Chunmei was really not sure.
"Hehe, okay, I just want to go and talk to my mother!" It's not that I haven't felt Chunmei's occasional doubts about her these days, but Shen Jingshu is still young now, and some things are inconvenient to do, let alone Make it easy for others to know. That time, if it wasn't because she was too young and too eye-catching, she wouldn't let Chunmei go if she was afraid that people would find out, but she was also very happy that the matter was resolved satisfactorily.
Yes, that's right, the scholar's matter was indeed a message from Shen Jingshu. When she was in the Qi Mansion, she learned the ins and outs of the matter, of course Shen Jingshu would not let Zhang Xiangling's trick succeed, so she asked someone to quietly tell Zhang Xiangling what her father objected to, which made Zhang Xiangling anxious and came up with such a bitter plan. Later, she wrote a note asking Chunmei to send her to the outer courtyard, because she knew that there lived a scholar who had come to seek refuge with Master Qi temporarily, and was somewhat treacherous and greedy for money.
Knowing the nature of the scholar, Shen Jingshu knew that the other party would not let go of this opportunity, so she gave the other party a reminder note and money, and of course the other party went. And of course the next thing developed as she expected. Zhang Xiangling paid the price for her greed and tricks, and the scholar also went away, which is good, otherwise the scholar would bully a peasant woman and make the peasant woman commit suicide , wouldn't that harm others again
…
Shen Jingshu is very satisfied with this result. After solving Zhang Xiangling, Shen Jingshu is very happy, and she is in a good mood these days. Now that the New Year has passed, Shen Jingshu is naturally happier as she thinks that she will start school soon.
…
In a blink of an eye, it was the day when Master Hui opened the school. Now that the New Year has passed, the weather is still cold, but Shen Jingshu is very happy to be able to go to school.
"Miss, why did you get up so early? It's still early, you can sleep a little longer!" Shen Jingshu always stays in bed, but today she got up so early, Chun Xiao knew that Shen Jingshu was in a hurry Woolen cloth!
"It's the first day of school today, so you can't be late."
"Hehe, what the eldest lady said is, then hurry up and freshen up, and I have to have dinner with my wife in a while!"
"Yeah!" Going to school today, Shen Jingshu didn't want to be so ostentatious on the first day, so she just wore a jacket that was probably new, and her eyes were also very elegant blue, with colorful flowers embroidered on it, making her whole Cute and elegant, plus Chunmei's skillful combed hair, although only a golden step shaker is used, but this golden step shaker is very cute, there are a pair of jade birds on it, and beautiful tassels, Shen Jingshu It flickers while walking, so innocent and cute!
…
"Mother!" happily went to Shan Yuerong, who had already washed and waited, seeing Shen Jingshu's appearance, Shan Banyan couldn't help but hugged Shen Jingshu in her arms, "Hehe, our Shu'er has grown up, and she's even cuter now!" Looking at her daughter's face, she looks very good, with big eyes, a small straight nose, and that pink and tender face and lips. , It's really like the jade girl next to the fairy, isn't it cute
"Hehe, mother is so early today!"
"Today is your first day in school, so you can't be late."
"Mom won't, I got up very early today!"
"Well, Shu'er, let's eat first!"
"En!" After eating obediently, Shen Jingshu looked at Shan Banyan's growing belly, and was very happy in her heart. Although the reason why the Shen family suffered in the previous life has not been found out yet, Shen Jingshu believes that she can change the past. Isn't the mother's belly now the evidence
Soon, she will see her little brother!
Thinking of the soft dumpling, Shen Jingshu is very happy, she is used to being alone, she really wants to have more relatives!
"Mother, I'm done eating, then I'll go first!" I was happy, Shen Jingshu now had a lot of smiles on her face, Shan Banyan saw her, pulled Shen Jingshu, and tidied her clothes and headgear, "Wait, don't worry, Mother will go with you soon!"
"Mom, no need, I can go by myself!" Shan Banyan's belly is getting bigger and bigger now, and Shen Jingshu doesn't want Shan Banyan to suffer.
"You go to school for the first time today, I don't worry, I have to send you off."
"Mom, I can do it!"
"Be good, Liuzhi, is the carriage ready?"
"Ready, ma'am!"
"Mother..." I didn't expect Shan Banyan to go too. Shen Jingshu hadn't listened to Shan Banyan's mention before, and thought that Shan Banyan had no such plan. Now that Shan Banyan's attitude is firm, Shen Jingshu has no choice .
"Girl, mother is fine now, and she just needs to go out for a walk more, okay, let's go, don't be late!" Shan Banyan must have something to explain when her daughter goes to school on the first day, of course she has to send it off in person Go is.
"Then, okay!" Obediently let Shan Banyan hold hands, Shen Jingshu knew that she was just a child in Shan Banyan's eyes, and it was only natural that Shan Banyan was worried, so she stopped resisting , lest Banyan Tree has been worrying at home today.
Forget it, anyway, going out for a walk is good for my mother, just be careful on the road.
Seeing that Shan Banyan had already prepared the carriage, and even the things on the carriage were all ready, Shen Jingshu was worried at first, but now she was relieved, "Mother, sit down!"
"Well, Shu'er, come and sit next to Mother!" The carriage was comfortably furnished, with thick stalls and a hot stove, so it wasn't cold. Shen Jingshu leaned carefully beside Shan Banyan, and Shan Banyan watched her children become more and more sensible, so she inevitably asked, "Shu'er, do you know that you have to be obedient when you arrive at school? School is not like home. There are more rules. Master Hui is a man. It’s also more strict, you have to work hard.” Originally, she wanted her daughter to study hard, but knowing that Master Hui had strict requirements, Shan Banyan couldn’t help worrying.
After all, the daughter is too young, she is only five years old, hey, is it too early for her to send her daughter to enlightenment
"Mother, don't worry, I'll save it!" Knowing that Shan Banyan was worried about herself, Shen Jingshu could only obediently agree. When she arrived at the academy, Shan Banyan solemnly handed Shen Jingshu over to Master Hui. Only then did Shen Jingshu realize that her mother really loved her too much, "Master Hui, my little girl is a bit naughty and ignorant. If there is something wrong in the academy, I hope Master Hui will forgive me." Shan Banyan also sent a gift, I have to say her good intentions.
Master Hui saw that Shan Banyue was so transparent, the smile on his face was a bit more, "I see this child is also smart, and he will definitely become a great talent in the future. Don't worry, Mrs. Shen, I will definitely teach him well!"
"If that's the case, then I can rest assured. I hope that Master Hui will let you know if there is anything going on in the future. The little girl will ask Master Hui."
"This is what I should do." Master Hui also has a bit of love for Shen Jingshu. During the Chinese New Year, Shen Jingshu accompanied Shan Banyan to give the New Year's gift, and he also made a small gift. Master Hui is very happy. What's more, Master Hui discovered that Shen Jingshu is actually very smart after several times of contact, and her temperament is different from other children. Master Hui has always had a good eye, and he also likes talented children. Naturally, he loves Shen Jingshu more and more.
"Then please trouble Master Hui." Seeing that Master Hui accepted the gift and showed kindness to Shen Jingshu, Shan Banyan was also relieved. Just as she was about to leave, she saw Mrs. Qi and Qi Xueyan coming over. Shan Banyan, Mrs. Qi's face quickly crossed a little bit of discomfort, but she quickly covered it up, "Hehe, Mrs. Shen, you are here too?" We were originally close friends, but after going through several times It was a little embarrassing to meet each other, Madam Qi really hated Zhang Xiangling more and more.
"Well, it's Shu'er's first visit to the school, so I'll send her off!" Compared to Mrs. Qi's embarrassment, Shan Yuerong was much better, and greeted Mrs. Qi generously, as if nothing happened, but it made Mrs. Qi A little embarrassed, "Hehe, I haven't seen you for some days. Jingshu is taller and more beautiful. Jingshu, do you miss me, Xueyan?" In a blink of an eye, Madam Qi looked at Shen Jingshu. Shan Banyan's smiling face felt a bit intrusive.
"Hehe, Mrs. Qi, Xueyan, you're here, I'm still wondering why I didn't see you!" Shouting with a smile, Shen Jingshu perfectly played the role of an ignorant person, when Mrs. Qi faced Shen Jingshu Instead, it was much more relaxed, "Hehe, you will study with Xueyan in the future. If you don't understand anything, you can ask Xueyan. If you want Xueyan, you can also come to our house to play, you know?"
"Well, yes, Mrs. Qi!" Obediently agreed, Shen Jingshu felt disgusted when she saw Mrs. Qi's false mask, but everyone was smiling, so could she still slap him in the face
"Hehe, this child is so cute!" After talking for a while, Mrs. Qi also talked to Master Hui, gave gifts, and finally gave some instructions before leaving with Shan Banyan Tree, her attitude was still the same. They were close before, but Shen Jingshu knew that Mrs. Qi might resent them because of Zhang Xiangling's affairs. Even because of this matter, they have a grudge against them. After all, they know what happened that day, besides the people in Qi Mansion and the scholar, isn't it just their family of three
But it doesn't matter, anyway, she doesn't intend to make peace with Qi Mansion in this life anyway, if it's not for finding out what happened in the previous life, how can she continue to maintain superficial peace with the other party now
Her father's tragic death in the previous life must have been related to the people of the Qi family, otherwise why so many people back then, but Master Qi was able to take the place of her father
Now that she thinks about it carefully, Shen Jingshu has discovered many doubts, but there is no way to solve them for the time being. Therefore, she still needs this chess piece of Qi Mansion very much!
Smiling as Shan Banyan got into the carriage and left, Shen Jingshu looked at the disgust in Qi Xueyan's eyes that could not be concealed, and secretly sighed in her heart that the other party was young and couldn't hide what was on her mind, and at the same time happily took the other party's hand, "Hehe, Xueyan, long time no see, do you miss me?"
