Shen Yuyuan was shocked when he heard that Liu Qiqiao had disappeared, and the concierge continued: "I heard that Su is still there, but the person who got up early to see her opened the door, but the person was not there. He didn't know if he was rescued or ran by himself. Going out, oh my god, what's wrong with our Shen family? Recently, why is there always something wrong?" said the concierge. He has been living in this house, and it is better for Shen Yuyuan. Only after meeting the second young master did he dare to say so.
Shen Yuyuan smiled hollowly at the concierge: "This is all temporary, it will get better over time, I will go inside and see..."
The concierge quickly said: "Second Young Master, you are busy..."
Shen Yuyuan returned to the inner house, and the people in the courtyard of Mrs. Shen invited him in.
In the front hall, Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Shen, Mrs. Shen Shao, and those aunts were all there.
Everyone was talking, and when Shen Yuyuan came in, they all looked at him.
Shen Yuyuan felt that Mrs. Shen's look in expectant eyes, his weakness for a while, had to shook his head towards Mrs. Shen.
All the people were discouraged, and Shen Yunong's concubines began to cry faintly.
Mrs. Shen is now working hard to control these aunts, she sighed: "You are tired too, come, Qinglian, let the second young master take a seat!"
Mrs. Shen's big maid here was busy bringing a chair to Shen Yuyuan. After Shen Yuyuan sat down, she heard Mrs. Shen say: "At this point, that Liu Qiqiao has run away. It's really messy!"
Shen Yuyuan felt a little bit unacceptable, but he couldn't show a look too caring, for fear of plainly provoking suspicion.
"You shouldn't keep her, this child, what's the matter, don't tell me, just run away like this, what's the matter?" Mrs. Shen said with a bit of heartache, "When Nong'er was there, like that It hurts her so much, it's not good for her to leave without saying goodbye!"
"There is still something unspeakable!" Madam Shen said angrily, and then glanced at Shen Yuyuan.
Shen Yuyuan was very uncomfortable with her stare, and Mrs. Shen asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
However, Madam Shen did not go on, Shen Yuyuan breathed a sigh of relief.
"We shouldn't be concerned about her, Yu Nong's business, nor her business, this child is also suffering, and it won't be better if he enters our door!" Mrs. Shen finally said something fair.
"She is a disaster star, old lady, why do you sympathize with her!" Madam Shen said. "She just doesn't run, and plans to sell her!"
Mrs. Shen eagerly patted the table: "What are you talking about, how can you sell her? No wonder she runs. Did you scare her here? The Shen family has never had a precedent for selling her aunt! What a mess, you guys. !"
Mrs. Shen was irritated and wanted to choke. Mother Zhou came over. After she was okay, she recovered her anger and waved to Mrs. Shen, "You all go down, don't stay here, and be angry with my old lady!"
Mrs. Shen took the lead and took all those women away, and Shen Yuyuan was left behind by Mrs. Shen.
"Yuan'er, grandma knows that your eldest brother is really bad this time, just pitiful. I, a white-haired person sending a black-haired person, can't even see it personally..." Mrs. Shen started to cry at this moment. She has also lost weight in the past few days. She was originally rich but haggard.
Shen Yuyuan lowered his head and didn't know how to comfort him. In fact, many people said that Shen Yunong must not be saved...
"Yuan'er, it's not that grandma is confused, but that I don't want to give up hope. I'm not reconciled, not reconciled..." Mrs. Shen took the veil handed over by Mother Zhou and wiped her tears: "Your eldest brother told me, Qiqiao is not messing around in the city, he let her be busy opening a shop in the city, but your mother always looks down on her, this... even Qiqiao doesn't know where he went, how can I be worthy of your big brother, Ugh!"
"Grandma, the eldest brother will be fine. I will send someone to look for it. As for Qiqiao, I think she will come back too. She can't run out of the wood house alone..." Shen Yuyuan was a little hesitant when he said this. "It sounds like someone rescued her!"
Mrs. Shen nodded: "I think so too, but I don't know who rescued her. This is, where did I take this child?"
Shen Yuyuan said: "Qiqiao is not an ignorant person, she will definitely come back, grandma, don't worry!"
"Nowadays, our Shen family...you are the only male. You have to rely on you to support you outside the house, Yuan'er, you have worked hard..." said Mrs. Shen.
Hearing this, Shen Yuyuan hurriedly knelt down: "The grandson is useless, I can't save my eldest brother... It makes grandma sad!"
"How can I blame you..." Mrs. Shen patted Shen Yuyuan on the head, "You child, you don't talk a lot on weekdays, but grandma knows that you have a kind heart. You have been here for a while, I I've heard those tenants say that they are all convinced that you, the second young master, you manage this village very well, I am very pleased!"
Shen Yuyuan looked up and looked at Mrs. Shen. She saw her loving eyes, with affirmation and love. This is a long time absence. Shen Yuyuan was placed in this village since she was a child. He rarely went to the Shen Mansion in the capital. It’s the Spring Festival. Old Mrs. Shen is only for him to worship during Chinese New Year every year. She will receive a big red envelope in her hand, will be patted on her head, and say: "My grandson, he will live a long life. !"
In addition, Shen Yuyuan could only look at the old lady with envy, watching the old lady doting on Shen Yunong, who is seven years older than him, but who is still more coquettish than him, and always tired of the old lady's knees. Seeing the closeness of their grandchildren, Shen Yuyuan didn't dare to step forward, let alone receive such treatment.
All because Shen Yunong is the grandson of a concubine, and he is just a grandson of a concubine.
Now, Mrs. Shen looked at him and said softly: "In the future, this Shen family depends on you!"
Shen Yuyuan held his hands, but didn't know what to say, but secretly vowed in his heart that he would manage the shop left by Zhuangzi and his eldest brother.
The Shen family spent a large sum of money and almost used up their only savings. After nearly half a month of salvaging on the canal, they finally lost hope.
But there is no way to go to death if you don’t see people or corpses in this way, so you have to hang on like this. In the country house of the Shen family, there is a lot of sadness. Mrs. Shen and Mrs. Shen have become ill one after another. Mrs. Shen Shaoyuan It is the sick child, drinking medicated soup every day.
Aunt Zhou's temper is getting worse every day, because she is pregnant, no one dares to touch her mold, just listen to her in the yard, curse this, or curse that all day long.
The day went on like this, Shen Yuyuan arranged everything in the country and returned to the capital.
He originally thought that the distillery and the silk and satin house were not necessarily messed up in this section.
No, everything is normal, and the freight and shipment are all very well-regulated.
Shen Yuyuan was surprised, but he heard Dunzi leaning in his ear and whispering: "Second Young Master, Qi Ye always takes care of this in secret. She lives in Yunshang Fang. She doesn't know about Zhuangzi. , The old lady and the lady meant, so I didn't dare to show up, only secretly instructing us to do things."
Shen Yuyuan suddenly realized that everything was normal here, and Liu Qiqiao was still in charge.
Shen Yuyuan was relieved to take a big piece, and that night, he rushed to Yunshang Fang.
Yunshang Fang has been decorated, and it’s about to open. The shop was very clean. When Shen Yuyuan went there, a young man was looking at the shop and just said: "This shop is not open yet..." He turned around and saw that it was Shen Yuyuan. , Hurriedly smiled and walked up and said: "Second Young Master, you are back. I thought I was going to buy cloth again!"
"Does anyone always come to buy cloth?" Shen Yuyuan said.
"Oh, that's too much to go, and everyone asks when will we open?" the boy said.
"Where is Qi Ye?" Shen Yuyuan said.
"Behind, she has guests!" the boy said.
Shen Yuyuan nodded, let him continue to look at the store, and walked behind. I just don't know what the customer is.
When I reached the back yard, I saw two people standing in the middle of the yard at a glance.
One is Liu Qiqiao, and the other, Shen Yuyuan also recognizes, is that Yuan Qiluo.
"Second brother, you are here!" Liu Qiqiao was very happy to see Shen Yuyuan coming. She was wearing men's clothing, and she has lost weight recently, her robe is hanging on her body, and she is empty.
While Yuan Qiluo and Shen Yuyuan met, the three sat down again.
"What are you?" Shen Yuyuan looked at the incense case with a small incense burner with three sticks of incense inside.
Liu Qiqiao was depressed, and Yuan Qiluo said on the side: "Qiqiao said, Master Shen has been away for 20 days, so it is a blessing for him. Whether he is alive or dead, I hope to hear from him!"
Hearing this, Shen Yuyuan hurriedly stepped forward, burned the incense, and worshipped three times.
The three of them bowed together again, praying in their hearts, and got up, Liu Qiqiao let them sit down in the main hall inside.
"I came today to think about your shop. It won't work if you leave it to dry like this. Although it is said that Master Shen is no longer there, the shop is still going to open. You still have so many people who have to eat with their mouths open, right? Yuan Qiluo said.
Shen Yuyuan nodded: "Yes, the old lady also said, everything that can go on, but also to continue to operate, that's why I am here!"
Liu Qiqiao heard him talk about Mrs. Shen, and hurriedly asked: "The house is all good? The old lady is okay? I... came out, didn't they say anything?"
Shen Yuyuan said: "The old lady is very self-blaming, I think she wants to know that you are okay, and she will be very happy to be here now!"
Only then did Liu Qiqiao feel relieved, when she heard the old lady still thinking about her, tears filled her eyelashes again, "If it wasn't for the lady and they said they would sell me, I wouldn't run out!"
"The old lady knows, she still reprimanded them, don't worry, I will go back to the house and tell the old lady that you are fine, she will be happy!" Shen Yuyuan said.
Liu Qiqiao nodded.
Yuan Qiluo came this time and was invited by Liu Qiqiao. Yunshangfang was expected to open during this period. Now, Shen Yunong’s life or death is uncertain, and this shop can’t be rented alone, it’s empty, Liu Qiqiao thought. To choose an auspicious day, let's talk about it after opening.
