After the ancestors fell

Chapter 50

Shen House
These days Shen Yuanhui is having a hard time.I don't know why all of a sudden, these days, people have been writing to impeach him, saying that he is unworthy of morality, not strict in running the family, and unkind in his official position, and demanding his dismissal.

Fortunately, the person who impeached did not produce substantial evidence, but just entangled in some trivial matters, which made people very annoying.

Fortunately, His Majesty the Emperor was discerning and only fined him half a year's salary, and asked him to contemplate behind closed doors at home for three months as a punishment.

Having nothing to do at home, he wanted to test the school's eldest son's studies. Unexpectedly, the eldest son recently left early and returned late. He didn't see anyone for several days. The servants came to report that the eldest son was busy with the Imperial College.

After Shen Yuanhui heard this, he didn't have the slightest doubt, but was very happy. He said three good things in a row, and told the servants around Shen Hao, "Okay, okay, okay, take good care of your young master!"

On the other side, the confidant sent by Shen's mother to Yongzhou has already returned. Listening to the news of her confidant's return, her face is sometimes resentful, sometimes pleasantly surprised, and sometimes greedy, like a palette.

"Go and call the master!"

Finally, after hearing the news, Mother Shen withdrew her servants, sat alone for a long time, and decided to discuss with her son before making any plans.

"Mother, tell your son to come here, but what are your orders?" Shen Yuanhui was hanging out with his concubine Hu Meier in the backyard. At a critical moment, he suddenly heard a servant girl come to make a package, saying that the old lady had an invitation.Immediately made him feel uncomfortable.

At this time, Shen's mother's expression was not good, she asked all the servants to retreat, and there were only mother and child in the room.

Seeing his mother being so serious, Shen Yuanhui put away his impatience and became serious.

Mother Shen asked her son to come closer and whispered a few words in his ear.

"really?"

After hearing Shen's mother's words, Shen Yuanhui was taken aback, "This is impossible."

"Why, you don't believe my mother's words anymore?" Mother Shen nodded her son's head with her finger and complained: "My mother said back then that since the matter is done, you should do it more simply, but you are good, you are indecisive, and finally do it." It's a mess, almost costing my life, and I don't know what you're planning?"

An embarrassing look appeared on Shen Yuanhui's face, "Mother~, son... your son has difficulties, please stop talking about it."

"Hmph, in my opinion, you just can't let go of that woman's color." Mother Shen sneered when she thought of what happened back then, "It's a pity, this beautiful flower can't stand being rubbed, it has already turned into mud."

Shen Yuanhui lowered his head, unable to speak.

"Speaking of which, what do you plan to do with this matter? After all, they are the blood of our Shen family, so why not let them suffer outside?" Shen's mother had a compassionate expression, but probably only she knew what she really thought.

"Do whatever mother says," Shen Yuanhui said obediently.

Suddenly, he remembered something, "Before that, let's inquire about the matter clearly and make plans. Mrs. Sun, who was in charge of them back then, disappeared for no reason, and the servants who were sent there a few months ago. Mother, you must Guard!"

"You're right, but no matter what weirdness these two girls have, as long as they enter the gate of our Shen residence, they must abide by the rules of our Shen residence."

In Shen's residence, the mother and son discussed for a long time, until the servant girl said outside that she wanted dinner.

In the small courtyard next to Chang'an Avenue, Mu Hongfei looked at the three boxes on the table, his eyes full of distress, "Twenty thousand gold, that is, 20 taels of silver, can almost buy Qingjiang Town. I It’s the first time I’ve spent so much money after growing up so big!”

"Ha ha……"

Yao Qing was dressed as a maid and sat on a chair beside her. Seeing Mu Hongfei's heartbroken look, she couldn't help laughing, "Don't feel sorry for the eldest girl, this little money is nothing to the second girl."

Mu Hongfei supported his forehead, recalled what he had done during the day, blushed a little, and said, "No matter what, I still want to thank you, Miss Qing. Today, I not only acted as a maid, but also as a servant. I really wronged you."

This is sincere, Yao Qing, as a doctor, used to treat diseases and save lives, or study medical skills, but now he has to accompany her to do these absurd things, really wronged her.

Yao Qing waved her hands with a smile, and said, "Miss, you're welcome, it's just a small matter."

What's more, it's not without benefits for her to do these things, the more she does, the more medicinal materials she gets from Mu Qingfeng, so why would she feel wronged.

The two were talking here, and not long after, Madam Zheng came over and said that she had prepared lunch for them to come over.

Mu Hongfei never cared about the rules of the master's servants, but Mrs. Zheng was unwilling and resolutely refused to eat at the table. In the end, only Yao Qing and the others had lunch together.

At night, Mu Qingfeng came back. She looked a bit embarrassed, and there were still spots of blood on her clothes.

"Are you injured?" Mu Hongfei was worried.

"I ran into a little trouble, so I had a fight. Don't worry, sister, it's not my blood." Mu Qingfeng picked up a cup of tea and drank it down.

Mu Hongfei persuaded, "Be careful in everything, we don't seek speed, we only seek stability."

Hearing this, Mu Qingfeng smiled, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.

Silent all night.

The next day, Mu Qingfeng went out early in the morning.Mu Hongfei and Yao Qing continued to work as scholars and servants, and went to the Imperial College.

There is a bookstore outside the Guozijian. There are several famous Confucian scholars in the world who have solved the problems. There is an endless stream of students who come to solve the problems every day. The opportunity to worship a famous teacher.

These days, Mu Hongfei solved ten questions in a row, and his thinking was exquisite, which made many students amazed.Mu Hongfei used to have the reputation of a scholar, and she almost became the top case in the government examination. Although the fame was removed later, her knowledge cannot be removed.

After returning from the Imperial College, she met Shen Hao again.

"Sister Mu"

Shen Hao looked very cute.

"Didn't you say that you don't have to wait for me these few days? Your homework is done?"

"I...I..." Shen Hao hesitated for a long time, "I have someone investigate the things you said."

The light in his eyes dimmed a little bit, "Grandma is not in good health these days, I want to help you, but I can't..."

Therefore, children and so on are really unreliable.

"It's okay!" Mu Hongfei smiled softly, "I know this is embarrassing for you. But it doesn't matter, relatives are the most important thing, I just want to know if grandma misses me and cares about me... ..."

At the end, Mu Hongfei's eyes glowed like tears.

Unexpectedly, this half-sister who has not been together for a long time is so gentle and kind, Shen Hao felt guilty and moved.

"Sister, don't worry, I will continue to look for that thing."

Hearing this, Mu Hongfei's eyes flickered, and his voice became softer, "The other day my grandmother went to offer incense, and I hid in the crowd, her temple hair was all white. I really want to have relatives like you Elder, but..."

Seeing her sad, Shen Hao couldn't help comforting her, "Don't be sad."

"I'm not sad, will you help me find my mother's belongings?" Mu Hongfei looked at Shen Hao pleadingly.

Actually, relics and all that stuff are bullshit.

The Shen family embezzled Mu Shi's dowry, and their whole family is Mu Shi's relic.
