Chapter 124

In order to watch the play, Shen Ruyi got up in a panic early in the morning. When she arrived, Lord Shen was sitting on the soft couch in a daze. To put it mildly, Lord Shen was thinking about life, and Mrs. Shen Just got up.Shen Minghe ate the milk, giggling amused by the nanny and the maids.

Shen Ruyi went to salute: "Father, don't you have to go to court today?"

"I'm asking for leave." Shen Houye said simply and bluntly, and squinted at Shen Ruyi: "Do you think that you are really exhaustive? If I don't stay here, even if the second room can't turn around, the old lady, you Not even her foundation can be shaken."

Now that the matter has come to this point, let's settle it completely. Anyway, the old lady will never get along with the long house in peace anyway. Maybe she has hated the long house so much that she wants to peel off her skin. Now, maybe what will happen in the future.

"Really? Thank you, father. I knew that you were the best for me and my mother." Shen Ruyi said in surprise, with Lord Shen being around, she was more confident.For Shen Ruyi's compliment, Lord Shen just snorted coldly and didn't answer.

Shen Ruyi didn't care, she turned around and hugged Shen Minghe, tapped her soft cheek with her fingers, and when she saw her cute brother, she felt that all the haze had disappeared, and the world was so beautiful: "Brother , Miss me? Did you sleep well yesterday?"

Shen Minghe stared at her, and recognized her sister who often came to play with him, stretched out her white and tender little hand, grabbed Shen Ruyi's fingers, grinned, glistening saliva flowed down the corner of her mouth, Shen Ruyi hurriedly He pulled the cloth towel tied under his neck and wiped him clean.

Ming He was just able to see people clearly at this moment, and he had been playing for a long time after eating milk. He opened his eyes wide and looked at it for a while, then couldn't help but yawned with his mouth open. Shen Ruyi hurriedly let Shen Hou Grandpa Kan: "Father, look quickly, how cute this look is."

Lord Shen Hou looked at it, and the arc on the corner of his lips increased a bit, and he couldn't help reaching out and patting Shen Minghe's cheek.Shen Minghe looked at him suspiciously, he didn't know him, he was so sleepy, so he simply closed his eyes and went to sleep.

Shen Ruyi didn't dare to shake him, the child was used to being shaken, and she couldn't sleep well if she didn't hug her.

As soon as the child was placed in the inner room and covered with a small quilt, Aunt Wang came to pay her respects with a pair of children.After everyone saluted, Shen Yunrou stepped forward and hugged Shen Ruyi's arm with a smile: "Elder Sister, I'll go pay my respects to grandma later, shall I go too?"

Aunt Wang will definitely be able to find out what happened yesterday. Moreover, when she surrendered to Shen Ruyi before, she knew that such a day would come.But she didn't expect that Shen Ruyi would choose to do it yesterday.

If Aunt Wang knew about it, Shen Yunrou must also know about it.So, today I want to go to the theater with the past, but what Aunt Wang said doesn't matter, and Mrs. Shen listens to Shen Ruyi the most. Shen Yunrou, a smart person, immediately found the key point.

"It will be chaotic at that time..." Shen Ruyi hesitated, Shen Yunrou hurriedly shook her arm twice: "Sister, I really want to go and see, I promise I won't say a word, no, I won't say a word. Don't say it! I won't be scared, maybe I will encounter even more messy things in the future, this time I will take it as a learning experience? Sister, let me go, don't let me go and see by myself, turn around I'm curious, and I have to ask someone to find out..."

Shen Ruyi raised her eyebrows: "It's just a good time to train your maids."

"Sister, please." Shen Yunrou acted as if she hadn't heard the previous words, and only wanted Shen Ruyi to go. Shen Mingxiu rolled his eyes, looking at Shen Ruyi for a while, and Shen Yunrou for a while. Originally, he wanted to join in the fun , but as soon as he saw Lord Shen sitting on the side, his courage was immediately exhausted.

"Okay, okay, let you go." Shen Ruyi was so entangled, she had no choice but to agree, just like what Shen Yunrou said, maybe there will be bigger things in the future, let her open her eyes this time, so that she can do it later Handle things like this better.

As for whether Erfang would lose face in front of the juniors, Shen Ruyi said that since they dared to do such a thing, they were not afraid of losing face.

"Mingxiu wants to go too." Seeing the second sister's smiling face, Shen Mingxiu finally mustered up his courage. While peeking at Lord Shen's face, he moved to Shen Ruyi's side and said softly, "Eldest sister also brought Mingxiu there. OK?"

"Do you have a good relationship with Mingrui and the others?" Shen Ruyi thought for a while, then knelt down and asked, Shen Mingxiu hesitated: "Brother Datang takes good care of me."

There are only two gentlemen in the mansion, one is enlightenment and the other is teaching.When Shen Mingxiu was about to be enlightened, Shen Mingrui had already started going to school seriously.Shen Mingxiu will only complete his enlightenment next year, and will start formal schooling, but this year, Shen Mingrui's family may move out.

"When the hall brother is embarrassed, he must not want others to see it. In this way, it will damage his manly image, right? It's like when you wet the bed sometimes, do you want others to know?" Shen Ruyi smiled. Shen Mingxiu quickly shook his head, his face flushed, "Sister, I stopped wetting the bed when I was five years old!"

"Well, yes, Mingxiu is a good boy. He didn't wet the bed when he was five years old." Shen Ruyi rubbed his head to express her praise: "Since the eldest cousin treats you very well, he doesn't want others to see him ashamed, so you will still insist on watching him." His disgrace?"

Shen Mingxiu is a good boy, he hesitated for a moment and then shook his head: "Then I won't go."

"Hey, our Mingxiu is the kindest." Shen Ruyi said with a smile. Although the second lady is cruel, her sons have not learned those methods yet.No one can tell what kind of temperament the two brothers will have when they grow up.

If he taught well, he might be able to help Mingxiu and the others in the future.But today's matter is really not a good thing. With such a mother, he will be accused of being accused in the sun. Whoever is present today will be unable to hold his head up in front of the Mingrui brothers in the future.

There is a thorn in my heart, can I get along well in the future?Even though they are young now, Mingrui and the others can't explain their thoughts clearly, but one day they will grow up, and when they become adults, they suddenly remember, oh, when my mother was convicted that day, you, Shen Mingxiu, were watching lively!

Knowing that it was her own mother who took the blame, she wouldn't feel too comfortable.

Children's families don't know the twists and turns, but adults understand it all.Aunt Wang smiled gratefully at Shen Ruyi immediately, Shen Ruyi waved her hand, and said with a smile: "Mingxiu played all day yesterday, do you want to make up your homework today?"

Shen Mingxiu immediately turned bitter, and Shen Ruyi smiled and said: "If you make up your homework today, then next time I go out, I will take you with me, okay?"

Shen Mingxiu's eyes lit up immediately: "Really? Big sister will take me out to play next time?"

"Really! Eldest sister always keeps her word. If you don't believe me, ask your second sister." Shen Ruyi nodded vigorously, and Shen Yunrou nodded with a smile: "Yes, elder sister is the best at what she says. Next time we will go to our own Zhuangzi Playing, isn't it ma'am?"

She winked as she spoke, Shen Ruyi never cared about Shen Yunrou's innocuous little thoughts, she just raised her eyebrows, even if she agreed: "Well, it seems that winter is coming, let's take advantage of the winter , go to Zhuangzi to play for another day."

Shen Mingxiu clenched his fists, with an excited expression on his face: "Okay, don't worry, eldest sister, I will definitely make up my homework today!"

While talking, Mrs. Shen packed up and came out. Seeing everyone in the room, her face immediately turned red, and she was a little embarrassed. She used to get up very early, and she wanted to send Lord Shen to court and wait for Aunt Wang Come here to say hello, and then go to say hello to the old lady. If you don't get up early, you won't have enough time.

But yesterday... Thinking about it, Mrs. Shen's face turned even redder: "I kept you waiting for a long time."

Lord Shen coughed lightly: "It's okay, I've sent someone to invite the imperial physician over, and I'll go to the Changchun Garden to check my mother's pulse in a while. Let's have dinner quickly, and we can pass after breakfast."

Mrs. Shen hurriedly responded, and Mother Chen outside the door immediately ordered breakfast to be served.Mrs. Shen was very unaccustomed to Aunt Wang standing behind and serving them, but Aunt Wang could not sit at the same table with them. In the past, Aunt Wang invited her to go back to her yard.But it can't work today, because when we go to Changchun Garden later, Aunt Wang is also a key witness, so they have to go there together.

"Breakfast is set outside for Aunt Wang." Before Mrs. Shen could speak, Lord Shen said first: "Another breakfast is prepared for Aunt Wang."

Nanny Chen immediately responded, and Aunt Wang knelt down to salute, and followed Nanny Chen out for dinner.

Ever since Chinese New Year, Master Shen and Mrs. Shen came to visit Dr. Huang once, and whenever the old lady had something to do, the Hou Mansion invited Dr. Huang.This time is no exception, probably the matter of the Hou's Mansion has spread to the palace today, Imperial Physician Huang didn't go to the Imperial Hospital, and just waited at home.

Carefully took the pulse of the old lady, Huang Taiyi shook his head: "It's nothing serious, but I was a little out of breath. I had a rest all night yesterday, and I have recovered a little bit. It's just that the old lady is getting old. I hurt my body again, so emotionally, I can no longer feel great sorrow, joy and anger."

"Then why isn't my mother awake yet?" Marquis Shen frowned and asked, Imperial Physician Huang coughed lightly, and reached out to stroke his beard: "Or, I'll give you two injections?"

"Will there be any hindrance?" Lord Shen was a little hesitant, and Doctor Huang shook his head: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, there will definitely be no hindrance, and the old lady is old, and she is always so lethargic. It’s a good thing to wake up.”

Since it is for the good of the old lady, the needle must be inserted. With Master Shen’s consent, Imperial Physician Huang struck quickly, and a silver needle seemed to be flying. put away.

Looking at the old lady on the bed, her eyes widened with anger.Marquis Shen glanced at the old lady, and he couldn't tell what the meaning was in that look. In short, the old lady's body froze when she saw it, and her opened mouth closed again.

"Thank you, Imperial Physician Huang." Lord Shen nodded, and personally sent Imperial Physician Huang out.When I came back, I saw Second Master Shen and Third Master Shen standing cautiously at the door. Lord Shen Hou didn't go to court today, and these two couldn't go out either.

After dragging a chair, Master Shen sat by the bed, looked at the old lady, and cut straight to the point: "Mother, don't try to delay the time, since the matter has come to this point, you know everything you need to know, no I know what I should know. There are so many high-ranking families in the capital who are staring at our family and waiting for the follow-up. If I don't deal with this matter as soon as possible, everyone will think that my Houfu is a soft persimmon in the future. You can pinch it if you want. Squeeze."

"You are wolf-hearted! That's your own brother!" The old lady's eyes were red, and she roared angrily, "You only care about the face of your Lord Shen, and you don't care about your brother's life or death? If you don't deal with this matter, others may say you It's a soft persimmon, but if you deal with it, your brother will be finished for the rest of his life!"

As she said that, the old lady softened her voice again: "Besides, even if you don't deal with it, someone may not treat you as a persimmon. Maybe people outside will say that you care about your feelings and value your brothers. Boss, boss Second, although he has some minor ailments on weekdays, blood is thicker than water. He is a compatriot of yours, just like you, and your father's blood is flowing in his body. You will be spared for the sake of your dead father. Pass him this time?"

The second master Shen who was beside him also had red eyes, and choked up and shouted: "Mother", he shouted a thousand times.

After shouting, he knelt down to Master Shen Hou with a plop: "Brother, I really don't have the face to face you again for what happened yesterday, and I don't ask my brother to forgive me, but Mingrui and the others are still young. It is really……"

As he said that, he burst into tears, and the third master Shen couldn't bear it very much. He looked at the old lady, the second brother who was crying on the ground, and then the Marquis Shen with a cold face. He gritted his teeth and followed suit. He knelt down with a sound: "Brother, you can spare the second brother, this matter is not done by the second brother, he just doesn't know about it, otherwise, he would not let the second sister-in-law's natal family do such a thing , my second brother and I are both from the Hou family, how could we do such a thing? Our brothers grew up together, don’t you know the second brother’s temperament? How could he have the courage to do such a thing? , are you right?"

If the three of them hadn't discussed it beforehand, then Lord Shen would never believe it.First hard and then soft, old fashioned.

Lord Shen raised his eyebrows: "When did I say I was going to deal with my second brother? This matter was done by the second wife..."

"What does it have to do with the second child's family?" The old lady immediately interrupted Shen Houye: "The second child's family doesn't know about it, and the second sister-in-law did everything!"

"She's an outsider, why would she meddle in the affairs of the Hou's Mansion?" Lord Shen had a half-smile, the old lady must have been thinking about it all night, and she didn't stop talking at this moment: "She has a daughter, and she wants to say To Mingrui, I feel that Mingrui's status is too low, so I want to adopt Mingrui to your name, and then inherit the title of our Marquis! That's right, that's it!"

Shen Houye clapped his hands: "This is really a good idea, but it doesn't matter what you say, mother, what does the second wife's natal sister-in-law think, why don't we ask in person?"

The old lady frowned: "Do you not believe me?"

Lord Shen shook his head: "I believe in my mother, but since the incident happened yesterday, my mother has not had time to meet the second wife's natal sister-in-law. How does mother know what the second wife's natal sister-in-law is planning?" ? Or, before yesterday's incident, Mother already knew about the plan of the second wife's natal sister-in-law?"

"I don't know." The old lady quickly retorted, meeting Shen Houye's eyes, her old face turned green and red immediately, Shen Houye sneered, and looked down at Shen Er and Shen San who were kneeling in front of her: "You two get up too. I must investigate what happened yesterday. Otherwise, no matter who it is, they can poison me in this marquis' mansion. I won't be able to live in peace today. Rather than being worried about your life every day in this mansion, it is better to move out as soon as possible to make room for you."

"Brother is serious, you can't move out, this Marquis mansion belongs to you, you are the Marquis, how can you move out?" Second Master Shen said with a pale face, stood up following the strength of Marquis Shen, By the way, he also pulled up the third master Shen who was next to him.

When I left the old lady's bedroom, I saw Mrs. Shen sitting on the left, with Aunt Wang behind, and sisters Shen Ruyi and Shen Yunrou next to her.On the right, sitting facing Mrs. Shen, are the Second Mrs. Shen and the Third Mrs. Shen who is about to shrink herself into a ball.
