Madam is a dandy, Mr. Shen loves her so much

Chapter 46 Only incompetent men use women as springboards

The Moon Landing Tower is a hundred meters away from Mrs. Shen’s yard.

This place was originally used for stargazing and moon-gazing, and it was also the highest place in the entire Shen family's old house.

Even after a hundred years, the wooden structure has not been corroded, and special personnel repair it every year.

It still looks like a new building, standing tall and tall.

In the morning, Shen Zhengnan accompanied the old man to climb to the height of the third floor, where they played two games of chess and then enjoyed the scenery together.

It is midsummer, and the courtyards of the old house are full of flowers. From a distance, you can see green and red, and the scenery is luxuriant.

"This scenery has not changed for so many years, only the vegetation continues to flourish." The old man looked at it from a distance and sighed.

Shen Zhengnan stood side by side with him, looking at the lush and lush woods in the far distance.

"The pear trees you planted back then have grown into a forest. When the pear blossoms bloom every spring, everything is as white as snow."

The old man sighed, "The scenery in front of me is still the same, but the people who climb this tower are not the same. Only when the family is prosperous and passed down from generation to generation can these scenery be added to."

"You did a good job." Shen Zhengnan looked at the old man and said.

Mr. Shen chuckled and said nothing. Having lived to this age, even the most unpleasant words can be turned into good words.

Shen Jiyuan and Shen Muche came upstairs at the same time.

The old man invited the two of them to sit down, and four men from the Shen family gathered around the round table.

"At this age, seeing the children is a luxury. Why is it just you two, Mu Yao?"

Shen Muze heard this and replied, "He went out and just left."

But he was swearing when he left.

Thinking of this, Shen Muze looked at Shen Jiyuan, and this seemed to have something to do with Shen Jiyuan.

"That kid runs around all day long with a smooth tongue and no formality."

Even the old man couldn't help but sigh when he mentioned this grandson.

They have the same upbringing method, but their personalities are completely different from Shen Muze's, maybe it's just their nature.

"The Jianghuai Chamber of Commerce has received an invitation."

The butler Uncle Zhong, who was standing nearby, put the invitation with a gold sticker on the table.

"My health has been getting worse and worse in the past two years, and I have long since resigned from the position of president. However, the Shen family has to go to this occasion. This year, the old woman also said that she does not want to go out and meet too many people."

The Jianghuai Chamber of Commerce brings together the top 100 companies in the entire Jianghuai and even the entire southern K country.

The threshold for entry is high, so naturally those who can attend the dinner are also worth a lot of money.

Those who can attend this dinner are all the leaders of various family businesses, and are not accessible to ordinary people.

In the past years, Mr. Shen and his wife have participated in the Shen family. This year, the old man means to let the younger generation go.

Nowadays, the situation of the Shen family is delicate. Shen Muze, who was the direct descendant of the old man, has been handling the company's affairs for many years.

He works hard and does not complain, even if he has no big achievements, he still works hard.

Almost everyone is certain that Shen Muche will be the head of the Shen family in the future.

Shen Jiyuan came out halfway, and when he returned to Jianghuai, he was doomed to have a bloody future in the Shen family.

The old man also obviously prefers Shen Jiyuan.

Compared with Shen Muze's gentle methods, Shen Jiyuan's thunderous wrist seems to be more suitable for managing a large family like the Shen family.

But this time, it was of great significance to represent the powerful people of the Shen family at the Chamber of Commerce dinner.

Shen Zhengnan looked at the old man and then at Shen Jiyuan.

"The outside world has known about Ji Yuan's marriage for a long time. This time, you need to bring your partner to attend. It is best for Ji Yuan to bring his wife."

The old man understood what he meant.

Shen Jiyuan played with the celadon tea cup casually in his palm, obviously not interested in what the two said.

"He never likes occasions like that. I think it's quite annoying." The old man said.

Moreover, Shen Jiyuan is the CEO of Nimit Venture Capital.

Will be invited to attend as a guest of the Chamber of Commerce.

"Originally, Mu Ze's marriage was prioritized. Now it's almost settled. Mu Ze should take his fiancée."

The old man's words made Shen Zhengnan stunned.

Based on his understanding of the old man, he thought that the old man would let Shen Jiyuan go.

Nowadays, the outside world's speculation about the successor of the Shen family has intensified, and now all eyes are focused on this dinner.

What does the old man mean by asking Mu Ze to go at this juncture?

"Dad, let Ji Yuan go." Shen Zhengnan said.

The old man shook his head, "Young people always need more opportunities to experience and go out to see the world."

The old man kept silent about letting Shen Jiyuan go.

"Don't pretend to be dead. You want to participate as the CEO of Nimit Venture Capital. I won't stop you, but there are some things you should consider in your own mind."

The old man looked at Shen Jiyuan.

But the old man knew in his heart that Shen Jiyuan never liked these crowded occasions.

The invitation was delivered to him, and he probably didn't even look at it.

The Shen family cannot be absent from this occasion.

"Even if I go, I won't cause too much trouble. You don't have to worry so much."

The old man looked at his casual attitude.

If it weren't for this attitude of not taking everything seriously, I'm afraid he would have handed everything over by now.

This kid is as untamed as a wild horse.

Shen Muze looked at Shen Jiyuan. He always behaved like this in front of the old man.

Not to mention not fighting or grabbing, it is definitely having no desires and no demands.

It seems that he doesn't care about anything in the Shen family.

But he just chose to come back.

"Okay, you guys should get ready, I'm going to rest first."

Shen Zhengnan helped the old man get up and go downstairs.

Only Shen Muche and Shen Jiyuan were left upstairs.

"I thought you would seize this opportunity." Shen Muze said.

The man sitting opposite only glanced at him, grabbed a handful of pine nuts and began to shell them. “You want this opportunity so much, it’s okay to give it to you.”

Shen Muze could hear the sarcasm in his words.

"Logically speaking, I am the eldest grandson of the Shen family. It is natural for me to attend these events on behalf of the Shen family. I know that grandpa prefers you, but this time he did not ask you to go. Do you know why?"

Without moving his eyes, Shen Jiyuan grabbed a handful of nuts on a small plate, stood up and walked to the fence.

There are two pine trees planted next to the building. They are also trees that are decades old. Now their lush branches and leaves extend to the height of the third floor.

The squirrel in this tree has seen many people, so it is naturally not afraid of people.

As soon as Shen Jiyuan placed his plate on the fence, two plump squirrels quickly came down from the tree.

"I'm actually very surprised. No matter how good the Zhan family is, they are still stronger than the Cen family today. It's just that you chose the Cen family, but you chose the one who has no one to rely on."

Cen Xuan now has no one to rely on, and is nothing more than an empty shell who is strong on the outside but weak on the inside.

The old man is knocking Shen Jiyuan.

Many times marriage will be a man's best support.

A family like theirs can only survive by joining forces.

The old man really spent time choosing a marriage partner for Shen Jiyuan, but it was a pity that he was rebellious.

Not only did he reject the family marriage, he also directly married someone.

The old man's face was disgraced, so of course he had to find something to do.

"Only incompetent men use women as a springboard."

Shen Jiyuan's words made Shen Muze's expression change behind him.

His usually gentle and upright face became ugly.

"I'm leaving first. Anyway, I want to congratulate you on your happy marriage and a happy marriage."

When Shen Muze turned around and went downstairs, he happened to bump into Cen Xuan who came to look for Shen Jiyuan.

The two met last time, and she remembered that this was Shen Muyao's brother.

He nodded and said hello very politely.

Shen Muze's eyes fell on the box she was holding, "Are my siblings from grandma's yard?"

The shoebox-sized wooden box in Cen's hand glows with golden light in the sunlight, a luster that cannot be brought out even with gold paint.

This box looks familiar. .

Cen Xuan smiled and then nodded, "Yes."

"It seems that grandma likes you very much. She is even willing to give you one of these boxes."

Cen Xuan looked down and then explained, "This is the pastry that grandma packed for me."

Shen Muze smiled and got out of the way of the body blocking her from going up the stairs.

Cen Xuan nodded to him and hurried upstairs.

Shen Muze looked back at Cen Xuan's back, his eyes dark.

In order to prepare a gift for Cen Xuan, the old lady moved out all the treasures of Luanfeng Pavilion in the morning.

So many things were given even before the wedding.

When people actually come in, they will only get more things.

Everyone left, leaving only Shen Jiyuan standing in front of the fence.

When Cen Xuan went upstairs, she saw him half-leaning on the edge of the fence, with a casual and lazy posture. From time to time, he reached out and threw nuts to the squirrels on the tree.

She put down the box and walked behind him. She was about to shout when she was stopped.

"Scare them away, and then you squat on the ground to catch the pine nuts."

Cen Xuan rolled her eyes, this person is really boring.

"Grandma asked me to give this to you, saying it was your favorite pastry."

This man is so picky that he even has to be picky about what he eats.

Especially for pastries, they should not be too soft or too hard, not too sweet or too bland, and even the fillings and sticky boxes have to be chosen.

It’s already such a hassle, it’s better not to eat.

Cen Xuan said as she opened the lid, and she was surprised by the exquisitely arranged snacks.

You really can’t choose what this thing is made of.

The old lady did it herself.

Shen Jiyuan walked to the table and sat down, taking a wet wipe on the side and slowly wiping his palms.

His eyes were calm as he looked at the snacks on the table.

That expression made Cen Xuan think that he didn't like eating at all.

"Can I try one?"

She asked curiously.

Shen Jiyuan motioned for her to take it herself, and Cen Xuan picked one in the shape of a petal and put it in her mouth.

Not sweet or greasy, it really tastes just right.

"Grandma said you have a picky mouth, but I thought she was making a fuss. Now that you taste it, it tastes really good."
