Master Huang didn't expect his sister to be so ruthless. His face turned pale and he said nothing.
It was Madam Huang who sent the princess's personal maid away with a smile on her face.
But even though she smiled, her expression changed immediately. She turned around and asked her husband, Mr. Huang, "What does your sister mean by this? How does this matter have anything to do with her? How does it hinder her?"
Although Mrs. Huang knew that it would be bad to sell her daughter, what good would her reputation do? Apart from the descendant of the saint, who else could rely on reputation to make a living
Besides, she is not her biological daughter, nor the flesh and blood of her belly, so why should she feel sorry for her
Their family is getting worse day by day.
He did not become successful just because he had a princess.
After all, Emperor Longqing is only an elder brother, not the late emperor. He certainly would not be as lenient and lenient towards these ferocious younger brothers as the late emperor was. In recent years, which of these princes has not been living in fear
They are afraid of causing trouble, and of course they are extremely demanding of the people around them.
As the Princess Chu's family, the Huang family has not gained any benefits in recent years. Instead, they have been suppressed and constrained everywhere. It is really sad to the extreme.
They were not a wealthy family to begin with, so how could they afford such losses? Moreover, their children had to get married one after another, and social interactions were inevitable. Gradually, they became really sad.
This year is even worse.
Ever since the youngest daughter got married, the family has been unable to support themselves any longer - something went wrong with the loan sharking business, and all the family savings were lost.
Now there is such a good thing in front of them. As long as they hand over a concubine's daughter, they can live a good life from now on. What is there to be reluctant about
Of course they would.
But Princess Chu happened to come and get in the way again at this time.
Madam Huang thought about what the person she met a few days ago had said, and her dissatisfaction became even more overflowing: "Although she is a princess, she is just a married woman after all. How can she still interfere in our family affairs!"
Mr. Huang sighed and said nothing.
After all, the Princess of Chu is his biological sister, what can he do
Madam Huang was even more furious because of his reaction: "Could it be that I was wrong? Don't you know what a bottomless pit your family is? Your sister, the princess, has been married for so many years and married such a good woman. How has she helped you?! Isn't it me who is struggling to support you with the dowry?!"
Master Huang has been scolded often recently, and he was obviously prepared for it. He stammered and was unable to speak.
This is not entirely true.
Since the Princess of Chu went to her fiefdom, she has often tried to find ways to support her family and has given them a lot of silver.
But it is true that the family had spent too much on the dowry of the Princess of Chu, and the subsidy from the Princess of Chu was of no use, and the family had such a big mess...
Mrs. Huang felt aggrieved and tears fell from her eyes: "I have been married for so many years and I don't ask for anything. It's just that Xiao Yin'er is getting married soon, and her dowry is still very sloppy..."
Master Huang was very angry, but he was helpless. After hesitating for a long time, he finally mustered up the courage to shout: "What can we do?! The princess is right. Now that the emperor has made up his mind, can we still do anything?!"
Madam Huang sneered: "The emperor only said to put the horoscope of the girl from the Wei family in front of the Third Prince's spirit, but he didn't say it was settled! How do you know that it can't be changed? Could it be that your sister, the princess, told you?!"
Seeing that Master Huang looked unhappy, she was not afraid of him: "Don't dream about your spring and autumn. If she cares about you, she won't kick you out when you go and tell her."
Mr. Huang was really at his wit's end. He couldn't even lift his head under his wife's questioning, so he could only ask, "What else can you do?"
Mrs. Huang couldn't do anything, but someone could teach her. Her eyes sparkled: "Of course I know what to do, just keep quiet. Even if Princess Chu blames you in the future, you can just put the blame on me..."
She had already said so much, so Mr. Huang certainly had nothing more to say. He sighed gloomily and looked at her deeply: "Madam, please take care of yourself..."
When Master Huang sighed, Xuesong also sighed.
It was a very cold winter day, and Shen Chen wore a cloak made of silver fox fur. The silver fox fur was of excellent quality, gradually changing from dark gray to light gray. When the sunlight shone on it, light and shadows flowed, making Shen Chen's face even more handsome.
Young Master Lin put down the cup in his hand and curled his lips towards him as if smiling. He asked him calmly, "Did you ask me to come here just so that I can watch you drink tea?"
"Not entirely." Shen Chen was at his ease, holding a crystal clear glass in his hand. He moved his eyes from the glass to Lin Sanshao's face, and leaned back lazily: "I asked you to come here to ask you for a small favor."
The favors he asked for were never really small. Young Master Lin looked at him thoughtfully, without showing anything on his face: "What favor? About the seventh young lady of the Dingbei Marquis' Mansion?"
"Why are you so nosy?" Shen Chen looked at him meaningfully, then smiled: "You weren't the type to know everything before..."
Young Master Lin didn't care about his joke at all, and didn't even frown. He took a sip of tea and said, "It's just that the matter of the Seventh Miss of the Wei family has been a big deal recently, and you are very close to her, so I just made a guess."
He did not forget that when Shen Chen was in a panic and had no choice but to escape Cao Wen's pursuit, it was Miss Wei Qi who was brave enough to take him in.
Now that Wei Qi has encountered such a difficult situation that could cost him his life, given Shen Chen's character, it is very likely that he would lend a hand.
Shen Chen nodded and admitted naturally: "Since you know it, I won't hide it from you. To tell you the truth, I do want to help that girl with a small favor, but this favor still depends on your help."
Young Master Lin looked at the green tea in his cup, and turned to look at him with a "oh". "You've already found a scapegoat, do you still need to ask me for something?"
Shen Chen's eyes darkened.
"You checked me?"
Young Master Lin was not frightened by his anger. The corners of his mouth still maintained a perfect arc, and he said calmly: "I was not investigating you, I just happened to investigate the Huang family, so I found it."
Shen Chen immediately realized that Young Master Lin was indeed very concerned about King Chu and the Huang Family.
He hummed: "Now that you know, it's easier to talk about it. Will you help me with this?"
King Zheng has already said this.
