Fair Lady

This is the difference between men and women. Women are always more sensitive and careful. Shuyao knew from Tianyou's words since she was a child. Suffered a huge loss.Originally, it was just a small business, not a rich family, so how could it stand any trouble?Still such a big family.

Shuyao could also see that Zhao Heshi was a strong old lady, and she felt guilty towards Shujie, so naturally she refused to speak to the three of them.

In any case, the Zhao family is Shujie's natal family, and the Zhao He family is Shujie's direct grandmother. Back then, Xia Linxuan took his wife and children to leave the house and lived in the Zhao family.Shujie was less than two years old, and the Zhao family died. Xia Linxuan and his son could only continue to live in the Zhao family. Zhao He and Shujie's aunt helped take care of Shujie until Shujie was five years old, and the Zhao family moved to Haicheng. .

Now that the Zhao family has returned to Yulin, how could Shujie not take the initiative to lend a helping hand?Now the life of the three brothers and sisters is very good. If Zhao's grandmother and uncle live in poverty, not only Shujie will know his guilt in the future, but also outsiders will criticize him.

But Zhao He's concealed it well, and the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren didn't have much embarrassment in their clothes, so Shujie didn't notice their plight.Moreover, Shuyao believed that if Shujie gave Zhao He's banknote at this moment, she would definitely not accept it.

So, Shuyao secretly wrote a letter and asked Zhang Gui to take it to Aunt Mei.

……

Zhao Heshi looked at Shuyao sister and brother with mixed emotions of gratitude in their eyes. She just learned from Tian En that it was Shu who arranged for Aunt Mei to give her money and asked Wang Xi to help buy the shop. Yao.A child who is only ten years old.With such care and caring, I have to say that Mrs. Zhen really knows how to raise children, even her own grandson Shujie was also raised by Mrs. Zhen.

For Zhen Shi, Zhao He Shi is grateful, but her mood is really complicated, she just thinks.Shujie bowed his head to Shuyao's siblings, and his own daughter bowed to Zhen's.She heard Shujie talk to those officials, clansmen, and neighbors just now, and the "mother" mentioned repeatedly was Zhen Zirou, and she felt very uncomfortable.

But Zhao He also knew that it was impossible for Shujie to have any impression of his mother, Zhao, since he was seven or eight years old.He is Donnie Yen's son.Moreover, the distinguished guests who came today only knew that the three brothers and sisters of Shujie were the children of the Zhen family. Shi's light.

Shuyao glanced at the woman holding Xiao Tianyou behind Zhao Heshi, and asked with a smile, "Grandma. Is this the eldest aunt?" The woman was wearing a dark blue dark flowered beanie and a simple round bun.Clean and tidy, with a friendly smile on his face.

Zhao He came back to her senses: "Yes, it's your aunt, Tianyou's mother. Tianyou's sister Lihua was helping in the store, so she didn't come over."

The three of Shujie hurriedly saluted Mrs. Zhang: "Shujie (Shuyao, Shuwen) has met my aunt."

Mrs. Zhang quickly took out three purses and distributed them to them: "Hey, these are small things that your uncle got from Fanren when he went to sea before. They are not worth much, but they look quite strange."

In Shuyao's purse is a beautiful small round box.The inside of the box cover is a glass mirror; Shujie’s is a men’s ivory hairpin; Shuwen’s is a very delicate dagger with exquisite carvings;

These things are carefully collected by Mrs. Zhang.I want to leave it to my daughter and son as a dowry and bride price in the future.Knowing that Shujie and the others were going back to Yulin, Mrs. Zhang deliberately found these three most delicate looking items as a meeting gift.

Seeing the sincere joy on the faces of the three of them, Mrs. Zhang finally felt relieved. These were already the best things their family could offer.She heard from outsiders that these three nephews and nieces often received rewards from the palace, and she was afraid that they would dislike the gifts she had prepared.

When Zhao He saw the meeting gift that Zhang brought out, she nodded with satisfaction in her heart. This eldest daughter-in-law is still sensible, if she wants to be like Cheng...

People are really careless, just as Mrs. Zhao He thought of Mrs. Cheng, Mrs. Cheng's voice came from outside the crowd: "Let me go, let me go, I am Xia Zhuangyuan's mother-in-law, Brother Jie, you have finally come back Let’s do the marriage with your cousin Xinghua.”

mother in law?Cousin Xinghua?Everyone was shocked, this Xia Zhuangyuan also has a cousin and fiancee?

The Xia family members and the neighbors on Xitang Street were also stunned. Shujie just came back, when did he get engaged to his cousin Xinghua?Several of them also knew from Aunt Mei that Shu Jie was engaged to the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, the richest man in Da Zhou.

A well-informed person among the officials sneered on the spot, where is this lunatic?Xia Zhuangyuan doesn't even want a noble concubine who pulls the strings to marry her as a flat wife, but a cousin and fiancee appear in this Yulin town?Whether it's an ordinary wife or a good concubine, it's a serious crime to deceive the emperor. Xia Shujie said in front of the emperor that he only married one wife.

At the moment when everyone was stunned, Mrs. Cheng rushed in with a red dress and red apricot blossoms on her cheeks.

Mrs. Cheng shouted at Mrs. Zhao: "Mother, why didn't you wait for us, and ran here first? You didn't say that, this time when Brother Jie came back, he will arrange his marriage with Xinghua Well, let Xinghua go to the capital to take care of their three brothers and sisters, and wait until Xinghua turns fifteen next year before consummating the house? The Xia family members are here today, so it’s just a good time to set the wedding date, right?"

Zhao He was stunned, his old face was flushed red, he wanted to yell but thought of the many outsiders around him, his lips trembled for a long time without making a sound, the hand pointing at Cheng was visibly trembling.

Shuwen snorted coldly: "My elder brother has been engaged for a long time in the capital. No one from the emperor to the neighbors knows? When did you get engaged again with someone who is a peach blossom?"

The head of the Xia family also stood up: "Exactly, our Shujie's fiancée is the eldest daughter of the Nangong family, the richest man in Dazhou. Who are you, dare to talk nonsense here?" Shujie's current achievements, coupled with that wealth A powerful fiancée is the pride of their Xia family and their face, how can this crazy woman make trouble?Let the Nangong family misunderstand what should I do?

Cheng's shocked, Shujie is engaged?What else does the emperor know?This is how to do?She was going all out today, knowing that many people would come to welcome the three Shujie brothers and sisters.Many officials among them deliberately pulled Xinghua to "fight to the last stand".

After returning from the capital, Cheng's mother and daughter were thinking about the wealth of Xia Zhai and the handsomeness of Shujie.Cheng mentioned it to Zhao He and Zhao Erbao once, but Zhao He flatly refused, saying that Shujie obviously didn't like Xinghua.At first, Zhao Erbao was moved by Cheng's words, and thought it would be good to get closer, but when his mother said that Shujie didn't like Xinghua, he gave up.

How could Cheng be reconciled?Hearing that Shujie won the first prize in both civil and military affairs, it was even more itchy.Day and night.Finally came up with this "unique trick" to fight to the death: use Zhao He's family to force Shujie.

In front of everyone, it is said that Shujie and Xinghua have already made a marriage, if Shujie does not admit it, the marriage will fail, Xinghua's reputation will be ruined, not only will it be difficult to marry again, but it will also be a marriage of grace and heaven.Even Dafang's Lihua and Tianyou will be affected.

Zhao Heshi will never allow such a thing to happen, so he can only be forced to help her persuade Shujie, and Shujie is unfilial to disobey his grandmother...

Cheng knows that Zhao He is very strong and respects face.Moreover, Zhao Heshi doesn't like her anymore.Xinghua and Tianci are always relatives and grandchildren, Zhao He can't ignore them.If it wasn't for this pair of grandchildren, she would have been divorced by Zhao He's long ago.

Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes, Cheng is completely willing to go all out, she just wants to bet: Shujie is the number one scholar, and if he wants to be an official, he needs fame.Would he dare to bear the bad reputation of being unfilial for disobeying his grandmother in public and angering his grandmother to death?

If she wins the bet, her good days will come.The mother-in-law of the champion!The wealth of the Xia family!It's all hers.

Lose the bet?Cheng never thought about it.She grabbed Shujie and Zhao Heshi's life gate, how could she lose?

But now... She didn't expect that in just a few months, Shujie was already engaged. Hearing the tone of the head of the Xia family, Shujie

Jie's real fiancee still has a lot of background.

Never mind, it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. With the help of her mother, Xinghua is afraid that she won't be able to fight against some dainty young lady?

Cheng gritted her teeth, sat down on the ground, and cried loudly: "Mother, what's the big deal? This marriage is the master of your old man. Now that Brother Jie doesn't recognize it, it's a big disobedience. What will we do after Xinghua? This reputation has been ruined!"

Mrs. Zhao He was so angry that she almost fainted (what she didn't know was that Mrs. Cheng's purpose was to make her "dizzy"), but what Mrs. Cheng said was right, being made such a fuss by Mrs. Cheng would not only hurt Xinghua's reputation It was broken, and it also brought Pear Blossom and three grandchildren.Now, it's too late to retire Cheng Shi immediately.

Zhao Heshi looked at Shujie with pleading eyes: "Jie'er, you... a man with three wives and four..."

Zhao Heshi suddenly couldn't continue, she saw the deep disappointment in Shujie's eyes...

Gritting her teeth cruelly, Zhao He continued: "It's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. I made the decision for you and Xinghua. Now that you've already made another engagement, Xinghua can be your equal wife." If Hua is a concubine, Tianen, Tianyou, and Tianci will lose face, and it will be difficult to talk about marriage in the future.As long as the title of equal wife is enough, she will not intervene in how Shujie treats Xinghua in the future.

Shujie's heart suddenly turned cold, and he said in a cold voice: "Our three brothers and sisters have a adoptive father who has been ordered by the emperor to 'give a relative', and the emperor ordered him to 'treat him like a real father'. I am afraid that my family will not be able to decide my marriage."

Zhao He's whole body trembled, his feet went limp, and he almost fell backwards, but luckily Zhang was beside him to support him.Shujie's words cut her heart like a knife, not only the content of the words, but also the tone of the ice in December...

She knew that this grandson was completely divorced from her. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
