Rebirth of a wishful life

Chapter 45

Mrs. Shen and Shen Ruyi have come to this point, how could Mrs. Shen be allowed to ruin the reputation of their mother and son?Therefore, Mrs. Shen's people can't leave the gate of the Marquis Mansion today.

Just after Mrs. Shen San finished speaking, Lord Shen's voice came from outside: "What's the matter? Why are you making such a mess?"

After the words were finished, the man opened the curtain and came in, with his phoenix eyes slightly squinted, he glanced coldly around the room, then turned his head and asked Madam Shen: "What's going on?"

Whoever speaks first has the advantage.Mrs. Shen hurriedly opened her mouth to explain the matter: "The old lady was annoyed by that slave, Hou Ye, you must not bypass that slave."

Lord Shen nodded slightly, took a step forward to help the old lady, sent her directly to the inner room, and went out to order his servant: "Go and invite the imperial doctor to come, and take my post to the yamen. There is no need to keep your slaves."

Third Mrs. Shen hurriedly smiled and said: "Brother, it is better not to send the post. Is this the same as what the sister-in-law said? We will not know until the old lady wakes up. In case the sister-in-law makes a mistake... Isn't our family wronged someone?"

Shen Houye glanced at her: "Why, do the third siblings want me and my wife to apologize to a servant?"

Third Mrs. Shen was stunned. When did she say such a thing?Just looking at Shen Houye's face, she couldn't think of a single sentence in her defense, she hesitated for a long time, but she couldn't say a complete sentence.

Lord Shen ignored her, she turned and went into the inner room, sat on the bed and looked at the old lady, and talked to Mrs. Shen who was standing next to her in a leisurely manner: "Then the matter of Wang Momo is convincing evidence?"

"Yes, if it weren't for this, I wouldn't send people to the yamen. It stands to reason that it is not easy for a family like us to send slaves to the yamen. After all, there are many things in the mansion, and Madam Wang is In the big kitchen, there are more female relatives who come into contact with the backyard. If you say something that should not be said, then the face of our Hou Mansion will be lost. But, I thought again, as the imperial court official, we should do things , you have to follow the court’s laws.”

To be honest, lynching is never allowed.Even a servant who has signed a death contract is not allowed to kill him in private.However, there are always loopholes that can be exploited, like the Guangping Marquis Mansion, where a few servants are killed, as long as a plausible reason is sent to the yamen, no one will pursue this matter.

But Mrs. Shen sent people to the Yamen, you can't say that she did something wrong.The richer the country is, the more rights and interests the people can get.

"That Wang Momo is really daring. She often takes back the little stuff in the kitchen and forgets about it, but she still replaces some precious medicinal materials. I sent someone to search Wang Momo's house. , I actually found a lot of bird’s nest and white fungus, all of which are high-quality goods, used by old ladies in the past, and they all filled the stomachs of Wang Momo’s family!"

Mrs. Shen was very angry: "Such a person dares to deceive the old lady and deceive the old lady's trust, it is really abominable! Our family can't let such a servant go, otherwise, the people below have learned and behaved. Will all the things in this mansion be emptied by them in the future?"

Lord Shen knew that the old lady was not really in a coma.Mrs. Shen also knew that the voices of the two people did not deliberately lower their voices, and they spoke very clearly.

"Such a small matter, you can decide on your own in the future. Since I have brought you back, you have to be worthy of your own identity. You have been ordered by the imperial court. You are the wife of the Marquis Ming Media, and the queen mother herself A daughter-in-law who has been praised is a filial wife who has been commended by the emperor."

Shen Houye leaned lazily on the chair, glanced at the old lady's face, then turned to look at Mrs. Shen again: "Be more confident in yourself, don't tell me anything, this Houfu You just decide what to do, if something goes wrong, then I'm still here."

Mrs. Shen nodded hurriedly. Before she could speak again, she heard a yelling voice from outside: "Is your mother sick? What's going on? I was busy at the yamen, so I heard the young man go and say that my mother was killed I'm sick from anger, my mother is always in good health, why did you get sick from anger? What did you do?"

Mrs. Shen was very wronged: "I didn't do anything. I came here only after I got the news. When I came here, the old lady had passed out, and only my sister-in-law was there..."

She wanted to say directly that it was Mrs. Shen who made the old lady faint out of anger, but at the moment Lord Shen is still sitting inside, and it seems that he is not dissatisfied with Mrs. Shen. If the room is not full, the loss will be great.

Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen have been husband and wife all their lives, and they have clearly felt the habits of the person next to their pillow. Seeing that her words were vague, they were taken aback for a moment, then moved their lips and made a mouthful: "Brother?"

Third Mrs. Shen nodded hurriedly, and Third Master Shen frowned, showing concern, worry and anxiety on his face. He rushed in as soon as he lifted the curtain: "How is mother? Did the imperial doctor invite you? When can I arrive?"

Shen Houye glanced at him: "Mother is in a coma, don't shout loudly!"

Third Master Shen's face was slightly embarrassed, he hurriedly stepped forward to look at the old lady, and lowered his voice: "Did the imperial doctor call for it? How is mother now?"

"I see that my mother's face is very peaceful now, so it shouldn't be a big deal." Lord Shen casually raised his eyes and glanced at Third Master Shen: "Tell me about your daughter-in-law all day long. I couldn’t figure it out, so I sent someone to call you back. Are you, an old man, supposed to take care of the affairs in the back house? It’s not that your sister-in-law is not at home. She doesn’t discuss some things with your sister-in-law, but let her Someone went to the yamen to call you back, what does that mean?"

Third Master Shen's face was green and pale, and he waited until Lord Shen's voice fell before he began to argue: "How can this be a trivial matter? Mother's health has always been very good, why did she suddenly faint? As a son, even if Mother is just a little I have a bad appetite, I can't even sit still in the Yamen..."

Lord Shen sneered: "Are you accusing me of being unfilial?"

Master Shen San blushed with sweat: "Of course not, brother, you misunderstood me. If you are not filial, brother, how could you come back earlier than me? You are the most filial mother in our family. But, my daughter-in-law It's also because I'm worried about my mother. She knows that I'm also thinking about my mother, so as long as it has something to do with my mother, no matter whether it's a big or small matter, she will tell me. Otherwise, I will definitely be angry with her when I come back. "

Shen Houye picked the corner of his mouth: "Your wife has a heart, but what she did today was inappropriate, regardless of the severity. When my wife was in charge, she tried to make decisions over my wife, even with ulterior motives." You want to slander my wife, this matter..."

Before Shen Houye finished speaking, the old lady started to struggle: "What's wrong with me? Why are you all here? Zhengxin, are you here too? It's good if you are here, I'm about to be mad at you. This lady..."

"Mother, wait first." Lord Shen Hou patted the back of the old lady's hand with a smile: "The third younger sibling made a big mistake, so I'll tell the third younger brother about it first."

"What's wrong with your third sibling?" The old lady's eyes widened immediately with an angry expression on her face: "Did you hear her nonsense?" The old lady pointed at Mrs. Shen angrily. : "Of course not. In today's matter, no matter whether my wife has done anything wrong, the behavior of the third sibling is inappropriate. The seniority is orderly, and the hierarchy is orderly. My wife is the justifiable housekeeper wife of the Hou Mansion. This Regarding matters in the mansion, even if she does something wrong, the third sibling can't send someone outside to call the third brother and the others back."

Seeing that the old lady opened her mouth to speak, Lord Shen's face turned cold: "Or, mother thinks that the reputation of the Hou's mansion is not important at all? It is said that my wife's first-rank decree can't even control the Hou's mansion." Let her younger siblings yell outside to promote her reputation? If the third younger brother can't control the third younger sibling, it's just right, we will divide the production and not separate the family..."

The imperial court law stipulates that parents do not separate the family, but there are loopholes in this regulation that can be exploited. If the family is not separated, the property can be divided, and the yard can be divided if the house is not separated.

The old lady wants Mrs. Shen to be the housekeeper, isn't she just trying to make Mrs. Shen earn more money?If the property is divided, where will Third Mrs. Shen deduct the money?

"It's not as serious as you said!" The old lady immediately felt a little weak, and Lord Shen sneered: "How many people watched this before and after, my wife has already told people to invite the imperial physician, but the third brother and sister were stopped So, instead, they sent someone to call the third brother back, what does this mean?"

Mrs. Shen's face turned pale, she stood outside and did not dare to come in, Mr. Shen apologized: "Brother, I must have made a mistake, she didn't mean that..."

"How did Mother faint today?" Lord Shen asked with a smile. The old lady looked at Lord Shan Shen and was about to speak, but heard Lord Shen say again: "If you are angry with that slave, three The siblings called the third brother back, do you want the third brother to go to the yamen?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Mrs. Shen: "If the third brother hadn't been asked to go to the Yamen, the third younger brother and sister would have handled this matter today..."

There are only two choices, or the old lady admits that she is angry with Wang Momo, and Mrs. Shen can expose the matter today.Either the old lady was biting Mrs. Shen, and then Mrs. Shen was used as a scapegoat.

What Shen Houye said was very clear, the old lady heard the choice without thinking about it, she was almost pissed off at that moment, and then she looked at Mrs Shen standing beside her, stretched out her hand and pressed her head and moaned: "I'm so mad! You, you!"
