Rebirth of a wishful life

Chapter 107

Mrs. Shen thought for a while, then nodded: "It's true, it's much easier to say it, but this matter is too dirty. Originally, I planned not to tell you at all." After speaking, Mrs. Shen sighed: "What do you think is the lack of an old lady in the Hou's mansion? Wealth and glory, filial sons and grandchildren, what is she dissatisfied with?"

"Mom, I don't know about this, I have to ask the old lady." Shen Ruyi blinked, and pushed Mrs. Shen with a smile: "You go back quickly, we still have to find a way to deal with the old lady's matter later. Okay, I'll think about it carefully, and I'll talk to you later."

Mrs. Shen immediately frowned: "You didn't sleep well last night, what are you thinking about now? I don't want to tell you, it's because of this, you have to think about everything yourself, so what should I do when you get married? This time Don't meddle in the matter, I will solve it myself, you just watch from the sidelines."

Shen Ruyi opened her mouth wide, and Mrs. Shen pinched her cheeks: "This looks really stupid, I mean it, don't meddle in this matter, just play with your brother at home with peace of mind , when you are free, do two-handed sewing for your father or your younger brother, or just count your own dowry and figure out who to bring as a dowry, or just write posts and go out to play with your friends."

Mrs. Shen rubbed Shen Ruyi's head affectionately: "Now your marriage is just a verbal agreement, and no one outside knows, so you can go out for a few more days, and when the imperial decree comes down, you can't even leave the house." Can't go out. So, while you can still go out, go out a few more times."

Shen Ruyi's face was flushed, and Mrs. Shen got up: "Isn't your rouge shop already in the capital? Go talk to Ke'er and Fang Qin when you have time. You are not allowed to interfere with the affairs of the house, have you heard?"

"I heard." Shen Ruyi nodded hurriedly, watched Mrs. Shen go out, and then pursed her lips into a smile. Not only was she changing, but Mrs. Shen had also changed a lot up to now.

If you manage it with your heart, your life will indeed get better and better.

After yawning, Shen Ruyi lay down again. It's true that she didn't sleep well last night. She really had a headache, so she took advantage of this moment to rest.After lying down for less than a stick of incense, Shen Ruyi's breathing became steady.

When it was time for lunch, Xia Bing went to Nanny Lu: "Young lady slept well, but it's lunch time again, Mammy, do you want to wake her up?"

Nanny Lu didn't even hesitate: "Don't wake the girl up yet, wait until mid-afternoon to prepare some snacks for the girl."

Xia Bing was about to respond when he saw a figure appearing at the door, took a closer look, and quickly knelt down to salute: "My servant has seen Lord Hou, please greet him."

Lord Shen nodded, and walked into the courtyard slowly: "Where are you girls?"

"Young lady is still asleep. This servant is going to wake her up now." Xia Bing said hurriedly, Master Shen waved his hand, hesitated for a moment, then turned to ask Nanny Lu: "What did Ruyi use for breakfast?"

"Returning to Lord Hou, the girl has a bad appetite this morning, so she only drank a bowl of porridge." Nanny Lu also hurriedly saluted, and Lord Shen frowned: "Go, wake up your girls, and go after some lunch." Sleep, young one, what should I do if I am hungry?"

Mother Lu didn't dare to refute, so she hurriedly asked Xia Bing to call Shen Ruyi, and invited Lord Shen Hou to go in and pour tea herself.

As soon as Shen Ruyi fell asleep, she was woken up. She was in a very unhappy mood, and she didn't look good when she saw Lord Shen, but Lord Shen didn't care, coughed lightly, and waved his hands to signal everyone to back down.Shen Ruyi looked at him in surprise: "Father has something to say?"

Lord Shen Hou didn't make a sound, and was silent for a long time. After waiting for Shen Ruyi to fall asleep again, he lowered his voice and asked, "What did your mother say to you when she came here this morning?"

Shen Ruyi woke up with a jolt. No wonder she always felt that something was wrong when her mother talked about the old lady before, but now she suddenly remembered, Rong Lan!That Rong Lan belonged to his father!

"You know all about it?" Shen Ruyi also lowered her voice, a little embarrassed, but her heart was churning. Since Rong Lan belongs to her father, Rong Lan might also know something about the old lady's scandal.Rong Lan is the maidservant next to the old lady, the only one left. The old lady trusts Rong Lan very much.

Since the old lady left the third lady to whisper in the room, Rong Lan must have been guarding outside, otherwise, the old lady would not dare to be so bold and speak so blatantly.

Rong Lan is the gatekeeper, why did she let Mrs. Shen in?She took care of the old lady for so many years, didn't she know that the old lady and the third lady kicked people out just to whisper?In this big mansion gate, it doesn't matter to whisper, but listening to whispers, it has a lot to do with it.

Especially about things like the old lady, after Madam Shen heard about it, with her temperament, she might have to go and talk to Lord Shen. Houye Shen is a person with high self-esteem, and she might be angry with Madam Shen.

Besides, Rong Lan knew that Mrs. Shen went in alone, and if she heard something serious, she would definitely leave secretly. Why did Rong Lan just come in with a tray?
If Lord Shen and Mrs. Shen are at odds, who will benefit the most?

In an instant, many thoughts ran through Shen Ruyi's mind.Either Rong Lan was purely listening to Lord Shen, and deliberately exposed this matter under the orders of Lord Shen. After all, the affairs of the inner house are most conveniently managed by women in the inner house.Lord Shen wanted to completely isolate the old lady from the outside world, without the help of Mrs. Shen, it would be difficult to do so.

Either, Rong Lan has another master besides Marquis Shen, or she took advantage of someone so that Mrs. Shen had to run into such a thing, and then let the old lady's anger be transferred to Mrs. Shen, maybe , but also take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of Mrs. Shen.

Or, it could be that Rong Lan herself has a different heart.

Do you want to tell the truth to Master Shen?Before she said that Marquis Shen knew about the old lady, that was to fool Mrs. Shen, maybe Marquis Shen didn't know?No matter how much love a man has with his wife, his biological parents are still his own. Whatever he does, the son of man will feel ashamed and embarrassed.

And Mrs. Shen would rather discuss this matter with Shen Ruyi than with Lord Shen Hou. Saying this, it would be embarrassing for Lord Shen.

"Shouldn't I know?" Lord Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked directly at Shen Ruyi. The time was too short, and Shen Ruyi didn't know how to react. She could only lower her head and try her best to hide her expression. Disguise her expression, but her disguise is never worth mentioning in front of Lord Shen. You can tell the truth at a glance, so she can only try to prevent Lord Shen from seeing her face. .

"Tell me, what are your plans." Lord Shen Hou paused and asked, Shen Ruyi muttered twice, can you lie?
"I was thinking, please make a decision as soon as possible, father, and let the third room out." After a long time, Shen Ruyi decided to tell the truth, no matter whether that Rong Lan was Shen Houye's confidant or not, she could not lie in front of Shen Houye .

First of all, she couldn't hide it from Lord Shen. If she told a lie today, Lord Shen would expose it to her tomorrow.Shen Houye's confidant is not only Rong Lan, even if Rong Lan betrays Shen Houye, Shen Houye still has other people.

With Lord Shen's temperament, in the Changchun Garden, there may be someone who is Lord Shen, even Rong Lan doesn't know about it.

Secondly, Shen Ruyi didn't have so many worries about what Mrs. Shen couldn't say.Shen Ruyi is not afraid that Lord Shen will be angry, Shen Ruyi is not afraid that Lord Shen will be embarrassed, and Shen Ruyi is not afraid that Lord Shen will make her decide.

"Mother is worried about you, I'm afraid you will be sad after I tell you..." However, what should be done is still to be done: "Mother is very embarrassed, I want to tell you but dare not, so I don't want to tell you, and I am afraid that if this happens One day when there is a big commotion, the entire Hou Mansion will lose face."

Shen Ruyi glanced at Lord Shen secretly: "Father, that Rong Lan..."

"Rong Lan has a different heart." Lord Shen's eyes were sharp, and he turned back in an instant. When he looked at Shen Ruyi, he was a little gentle: "Don't worry about that Rong Lan, he is just a slave who betrayed the master. Since she doesn't want to be a servant girl properly, then I will fulfill her wish and send someone out later."

Don't want to be a maid?The corners of Shen Ruyi's mouth twitched again. The most serious thing she guessed was that Rong Lan had joined the Ming Lord, but she never thought that Rong Lan had this idea. Mrs. Shen was angered by Lord Shen, maybe she would have chance?

How could this person look smart, but actually be so stupid?Since she can become Lord Shen's confidant, she must have served Lord Shen for a long time, and she still doesn't know what kind of person Lord Shen is?

Moreover, this man has been serving the old lady for a long time, why did he suddenly have such thoughts?Thinking of Rong Lan's age again, Shen Ruyi became clear again.

"Who do you plan to give the person to?" Shen Ruyi summoned up her courage and asked, Shen Houye gave her a sideways glance with a half-smile, Shen Ruyi hurriedly waved his hand: "I don't ask, how should I deal with the grandmother's matter? Father, you were earlier..."

"You can't let the third room go outside." Lord Shen Hou paused before saying: "Who knows if the third room will talk nonsense outside, if you want to keep a person in check, you can only put the person under your nose. What kind of idea Fang wants to make, I will know immediately, and I can respond accordingly, if it is too far away..."

"You can put the third room in the capital, the third wife and grandmother..." Shen Ruyi asked hesitantly, Shen Houye sighed: "So, this matter is up to you and your mother to figure out a way, the matter of the female relatives, we It’s not easy to interfere.”

You can't kill all the insiders, one death is okay, two deaths will attract attention, and three deaths may even involve the emperor.The third lady and the old lady did such a thing, who knows if the third master knows.

Shen Ruyi frowned, if they left her in the Hou Mansion, what would they do if they wanted to kill their mothers?No, now it is estimated that the murderous intention has already been activated, but it is just that he has not done it yet.She originally wanted to send people away far away, so that even if they wanted to kill, they couldn't do anything.But at this moment, people cannot be sent away.Because Sanfang had the hole cards in his hand, once this scandal was publicized, Lord Shen would not be able to suppress it.

Not to mention that if the titles of several generations of the Hou Mansion are gone, my younger brother may not even have the chance to become an official in the future.

It's really difficult to be close or far.

"Sanfang took advantage of this, so my father was very embarrassed, so can we take advantage of Sanfang?" After thinking about it, Shen Ruyi asked, in fact, after Lord Shen said that he had no choice Shen Ruyi's eyes widened in shock, but that was Lord Shen. No matter what time, he always looked like he was holding a wisdom pearl. No matter what happened to him, Lord Shen was calm. There are times when you can't do anything?
Shen Ruyi was about to threaten Sanfang, but immediately thought, Master Shen has nothing to do, does it mean that he still has some feelings for the younger brother of Sanfang Shen, and he doesn't want to go to the point of death?

"What is Sanfang's reason for us to hold?" Lord Shen raised his eyebrows, Shen Ruyi thought about it, if Master Shen was not completely disappointed in his younger brother, then this reason has to be weighed.

"We don't need to handle the third wife, why don't we just grab the third lady's mother?" Suddenly, Shen Ruyi thought of a key person, who was the old lady's treasure, the third lady's biological father, regardless of the old lady. What do you want to do with the third lady, you have to worry about this person's life first, right?
Lord Shen smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and rubbed Shen Ruyi's head: "It's good to think of this."

Shen Ruyi blinked, seeing Lord Shen's expression of relief, and suddenly understood that Lord Shen had already dealt with his feelings, and he was just playing with her right now?
"Father!" Shen Ruyi, who had been tricked, angrily threw Shen Houye's hand aside, Shen Houye didn't care, reached out for the teacup, took a sip and said, "I just came to tell you Rong Lan can't be trusted, I won't interfere with what you are going to do next."

"Mother heard such a thing, grandma and the third wife will definitely not let mother go." Shen Ruyi said sullenly, fortunately, she was still thinking about the Hou's mansion, and it turned out that Shen Houye had already decided to be the key. The characters are under control, as long as the old lady and the third wife are obedient, the days will pass, and if there are any bad ideas, then they should think about it more.

There is a solution to the troubles of the Hou Mansion, so what about my own mother?Shen Ruyi has never forgotten that her mother's life is still in danger. The old lady and the third lady will worry about Lord Shen, but not Mrs. Shen.

Can't tell when...

"What are you going to do?" Lord Shen Hou asked back, Shen Ruyi was about to speak, but then stopped, what are you going to do?She planned to send Sanfang away before!But just now I talked to Master Shen Hou for a long time, Sanfang cannot be sent away.

Shen Ruyi felt a little weird again, could it be that Lord Shen made such a big circle just to tell himself that it is not feasible to send Sanfang away?
"I don't know if father can do it?" Shen Ruyi rolled her eyes and shook Lord Shen's arm coquettishly. This matter has nothing to do with Mrs. Shen. Master's mother, Rong Lan is Lord Shen's confidant, if it weren't for the two of them, how could Mrs. Shen encounter such a thing?

"Father, can you help me think of a way?" Shen Ruyi said pitifully and coquettishly: "I really can't help it, this can't work, that can't work, unless all the insiders are dead, or mother will always be there. Danger, you say, what should we do about this?"

Lord Shen raised his eyebrows: "Since there is no other way, how about hiding?"

Shen Ruyi immediately jumped up: "Why should we hide? It's not that my mother did something wrong! Those who made mistakes will enjoy the food and drink spicy food in the Hou's mansion, but those who didn't make mistakes will be sent to Zhuangzi superior?"

As he said that, his eyes were red. After finally returning to the Hou Mansion with his mother, he still had to be sent out?So what are her previous efforts?is it a joke

Why did she go back to Hou Mansion?Isn't it just to get rid of those who can threaten the lives of their mothers and daughters?Now that the murderer from the previous life has been found out, it's fine if he doesn't get rid of the threat, but he has to avoid it again?

"Ruyi, sit down!" Lord Shen probably didn't expect Shen Ruyi to have such a big reaction to a joke of his own, so he hurriedly dragged her to sit down, stretched out his hand and rubbed her head: "But do you take it seriously? My younger brother is pestering you and your mother now, if you two leave, what will your brother and I do?"

Shen Ruyi didn't speak, but looked at him with red eyes. Lord Shen had no choice but to wave his hands: "Forget it, forget it, I shouldn't ask you about this matter, don't worry about it, I'll take care of it, okay? If you're free, just Go out and play with your friends, don't worry about things in this mansion, okay?"

The joke went too far and poked the girl's scar.Hey, I thought she was very happy all day long and didn't care about the past, but unexpectedly, she still remembered it in her heart.

If Ruyi remembers, does the madam also remember?Thinking about it, Master Shen couldn't sit still, no wonder Madam didn't ask for anything, but she was the first one to ask Ruyi for help. So, is it because she doesn't believe in herself?
Lord Shen couldn't help but smiled wryly. He thought that the woman was kind and soft-hearted, and he treated her well now. She should have let go of the past, but he didn't expect...
