"You!!" The eldest princess was shocked and furious, she couldn't believe that she would say such a thing.
She took a few deep breaths to calm the anger in her heart, and said coldly: "Hearing what you said, I know that you have so much dissatisfaction in your heart, and it's hard for you to keep silent for so many years."
Shen Xinyan smiled: "For so many years, my daughter-in-law has never said a word of dissatisfaction, but whatever mother's decision, the daughter-in-law has nothing to do with it. It's just that mother, if because of my silence, others keep pushing me , so that I can barely protect a child beside me, so today I want to say a few words to my mother."
"Mother has lived in seclusion for these years, and her status is so noble, and you can't get idle gossip. Naturally, you can't imagine what kind of incompetent your daughter-in-law is in the eyes of the wives in the capital. The mistress of the entire family can't even handle the Zhongfu, so she has to trouble the widowed elder sister-in-law to come forward."
The eldest princess's heart tightened, she was full of reproaches but couldn't speak out for some reason.
"My sister-in-law is smart and capable, and my daughter-in-law is far behind. Therefore, although I have been disturbed by rumors in Beijing and China these years, there is no other way except pretending not to listen and minimizing the chances of communicating with everyone."
She couldn't help but sigh when she thought of how many times in her previous life she shut herself in the house after hearing gossip and went back home, and sulked.
I don't know how to fight, and I just dare to hold back my grievances in my heart without saying a word. As time goes by, who will pay attention to your thoughts and care about your opinions
"The daughter-in-law is also a mother, and she always understands the kindness of the mother's preferential treatment of the eldest house. Speaking from the heart, it is the luck of the elder sister-in-law, as well as the daughter-in-law and the three younger siblings. Because the daughter-in-law It is clear, and I am very relieved, no matter what the future of Erfang is good or bad, as long as we are still mother's children, mother will never abandon us."
Speaking of this, she gave a big gift to the Eldest Princess deeply.
The eldest princess choked for breath, and suddenly felt her nose ache, she quickly lowered her eyelids to hide the glare in her eyes.
As a mother, the most gratifying thing is that the juniors can understand their painstaking efforts and understand their difficulties. They are all her own flesh and blood, so is it possible that she can treat one more favorably than another? However, the eldest son died young, and the eldest son had no one who could support him. If she didn't take care of her, how would she see the eldest son in the future
Fang clutched the veil tightly, wanting to say something, but found that no matter what she said in this situation, it was inappropriate.
Yang's eyeballs rolled a few times. Mrs. Chen asked the Eldest Princess to take back Mrs. Fang's keys and account books, but these things have to be taken care of. Seeing Mrs. Shen's actions today, it doesn't seem like she intends to take the opportunity to seize the reward. The biggest possibility is a few people Joint management.
Regardless of whether it is Fang's and Shen's joint management in the end, or Shen's managing with him, for him, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages!
The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, the eyes looking at Shen Xinyan were as bright as stars.
She knew that if Shen didn't make a move, it would bring her unexpected joy. Such a Shen family is far better than that stuffy gourd before!
"Then how are you doing?" The Eldest Princess felt that she had calmed down, staring at Shen Xinyan and asked slowly.
Shen Xinyan noticed that her tone had softened a lot compared to before, and knowing that her words had made an impact, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her tightly clenched hands in her sleeves also unknowingly loosened. .
She knew that the risky move she took was half the battle.
"The daughter-in-law believes that the mother should take back the keys and account books that were handed over to the sister-in-law. The affairs of the house should be jointly handled by the daughter-in-law, the third sibling, and the sister-in-law, and the mother should decide on major matters." She said her answer without haste.
Yang's eyes lit up immediately, the three households are in charge of each other, okay! What a treat!
Fang's eyes were burning with hatred, but she couldn't say anything to refuse. What they proposed was that the three households should manage the house together, and it didn't completely deprive her of the right to manage the house, it just added two more people to share her right.
"The daughter-in-law also thinks that the second sister-in-law's method is very good! The daughter-in-law is not talented, but she has learned to manage housework when she was still in her boudoir, and she is willing to share the worries of her mother and sister-in-law!" Yang interjected cleverly and quickly stated her position.
It would be a fool not to speak out to support Shen at this time, at least let the eldest princess see that two of the three are on the same side, no matter how biased her heart is, she can't just focus on one and ignore the other two opinion.
The eldest princess condescendingly glanced at the three sisters-in-law with different expressions, and finally landed on Fang Shi: "What do you mean?"
I mean? Of course I don't want to! Fang wanted to protest loudly, wanted to ask them why, but when she faced the calm face of the Eldest Princess, she found that she couldn't say those words.
As time passed bit by bit, Shen Xinyan and Yang Shi also stared at her closely, as if they were waiting for her answer.
Fang's lips moved a few times, and after a long time, he forced a stiff smile: "Although the two brothers and sisters have learned how to be the director of the family when they were in the boudoir, they have been pampered and treated well for so many years, and things in the house are too complicated. Too many, I'm afraid it may not be clear for a while, it's better to..."
"Hey, what are you afraid of? Although everything is difficult at the beginning, isn't there still a sister-in-law in the mansion? If there is anything you don't understand, please ask the sister-in-law to enlighten me. It's just that there is something wrong , Mother is still here! Her old man will never leave her alone, mother, right?" Yang said with a smile.
Princess Dachang's expression was indifferent, so people couldn't see her thoughts, but when she heard Yang asked her, she nodded her head: "That's the truth!"
Ouch, with the affirmation of the eldest princess, Yang's spirit was lifted, and she immediately became more energetic.
"It's all a family, and it's all for the good of the family. My sister-in-law also said that there are too many things in the house, so it shouldn't all be on the shoulders of my sister-in-law alone. Brother Qi is still young , can't do without the care of my sister-in-law. What's more, the second girl is twelve years old after the new year. This age is neither too old nor too young, but this marriage must be paid attention to. There is also Bi Rong's marriage That's right, there's no need to delay any longer. After counting the details, the eldest sister-in-law is so busy that she doesn't even have time to breathe, how can my second sister-in-law and I, who have nothing to do all day long, feel at ease!"
"So you don't have to be polite, sister-in-law. Let me and my second sister-in-law take the lead. At least it can save us some face, and it won't be the case that others will find out that we are not considerate of elder sister-in-law. Are you right, sister-in-law?"
Shen lowered her head slightly to hide the smile on her lips.
She knew that as long as she made the start, she would leave everything to Yang Shi, and Yang Shi would definitely use all her strength to achieve her goal.
And just now the eldest princess affirmed Yang's words, in fact, it is equivalent to agreeing to the practice of "three households share the same management". So far, she has not said it clearly, but I think it is just hoped that Fang's initiative will be proposed, so it will be all right. Fang's face does not make people feel that she has made a mistake and was divided.
It has to be said that the Eldest Princess Fang Shi really cares a lot.
That's why she only put forward the "Three Houses Consensus" instead of directly expressing her attitude to deprive Fang of his power.
Besides, being a parent is unavoidable a little bit of "robbing the strong to help the weak". If the Fang family loses power, it will be equivalent to taking another step towards "weakness". she.
It is better to maintain the status quo for the time being than to have another branch in the future.
She could see that the Eldest Princess had already agreed, and so did Fang's heart.
She lowered her eyes, listened to Yang's chattering beside her, and smiled a slight mocking smile.
Mrs. Shen mentioned the monthly order to return to each house, and the mother agreed without saying a word; when Mrs. Shen mentioned "three households share the same management", the mother also planned to agree without thinking deeply. What's ridiculous is that she still thought she was taking care of the first room everywhere, but her heart had already turned to the second room.
But it's true, Wei Junhang is the eldest son now, and she will rely on her in the future. If she doesn't favor the second wife, is it possible that she will favor the eldest wife, orphans and widows
Today is just the right to manage the family, what about the future? In the future, if Mrs. Shen made any more 'suggestions', would she agree without saying a word
The more she thought about it, the more she couldn't restrain the resentment in her heart, she quickly closed her eyes to hide the hatred in her eyes.
"...Sister-in-law, what do you think?" Yang babbled a lot but couldn't get any response from Fang shi, a little impatient, and asked, touching her arm lightly.
how about? Can she still decide now? Fang sneered secretly.
"Then follow what the two younger brothers and sisters said. In a few days, I will send someone to bring the keys and account books of the house and return them to mother." She heard the voice of raging anger burning in her heart, and the resentment spread rapidly, but she She still tried her best to maintain the peace on the surface, she didn't want to, and she wouldn't let people see her jokes.
"Oh, my sister-in-law is really straightforward. I think it's better to hit the sun than choose the day. Why don't I send someone to pick it up now?" Mrs. Yang is well versed in the principle of striking while the iron is hot, and she would not allow her to procrastinate, so she suggested with a smile.
"The third younger brother and sister have never been in charge of the house, so it's not a big deal if they don't know. It's just that the handover is not a simple matter. How can it be done in a short while." Fang said with a sneer.
"What's the matter, no..."
"Let's just leave it at that. After a few days, I'll straighten things out and send the keys and account books. I'll sort things out before distributing the errands to each room." The Eldest Princess interrupted Yang's words.
Yang's heart was dissatisfied, and she muttered secretly: "Isn't this giving her time to make up for the shortfall?"
She didn't believe that Fang's family was really innocent for so many years, she was afraid that she had stolen so many good things from the public behind her back. It's a pity that this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to cut a piece of her flesh was wasted like this.
Although I was very dissatisfied in my heart, but if the Eldest Princess spoke, there would be no chance for others to comment.
Shen Xinyan watched her heart with her eyes and nose.
Enough is enough, if the Fang family hits too hard, I am afraid that the eldest princess will be dissatisfied, and now she is quite satisfied with the results, as for the shortcomings in the public, it is fine for Fang to make up for it in the end, the eldest princess pretends to be deaf Whether dumb or not, she didn't want to care about it.
