When Shen Xuan received the letter, she pondered for a moment and then felt a bit troubled.
It seemed that the Miao had been pestered by the cultivators! She did not know if Ren Ang was a human or a demon, what kind of bird could he be for him to rush to become his son-in-law! He only hated himself for not being in front of him and not being able to see through the true form of the monster!
She had experienced the pain of being a human or a demon, so she couldn't teach her daughter to taste it again! He had to think of a way to tell Big Brother about the marriage between the two families as soon as possible. As for that Ren Ang …
She gritted her teeth. She had to make use of her husband!
At this time, within the Duke Xinyang's Mansion, Madam Hou Xin Yang was talking about her second son's marriage with her mother-in-law.
"..." "They are all noble young ladies. Their bearing and character are all extremely good." Yesterday, when she returned from the Flower Lover Banquet, Madam Hou was very fond of her beauties. She also asked around and as long as the young lady was well, as long as her family was well, she would be happy.
It was at least hundreds to thousands of times better than that peasant girl who came from some unknown mountain!
When he thought about this, the Madam Hou became angry.
However, her husband had never let go of her. Although he never mentioned that unknown peasant girl again, she had not allowed herself to be engaged to Yuan'er. If anyone else asked, they could only push the blame onto him.
It was unknown what marquis was hesitating about, as it was obvious that the peasant girl had already set a promise with the Ren Family. He hated that the Lord Ren did not take him seriously, and only boasted that if the child came to his door, as long as the mistress acknowledged him, he would not mind having an extra son.
What kind of people are they!? How could the descendants of bloodlines be confused! It could be seen just how chaotic the mansion had become! It was said that there were seven or eight concubines, not to mention those in the outer chamber!
Madam Hou was very doubtful about Shen Xuan's butler abilities. How did this look like the owner of a third rank family, caused by that vile person! The average person would praise Shen Xuan endlessly, saying that she was virtuous and virtuous, following his husband's filial piety towards her elders, towards her aunt's kindness towards her family, and thinking back to how her mother-in-law gave his husband the little girl, even openly and secretly beating him up to be a woman, wanting him to be with Shun Xianliang [1]
How was she not virtuous!
Wasn't it just secretly selling out a few girls! Isn't it just that no concubines were born in the family!?
Thinking about this made him even angrier!
As a result, Madam Hou looked at her wife with hidden bitterness.
Old Mistress Zhang was resting with her eyes closed. While she was thinking about her grandson's marriage, she was also planning to leave her daughter-in-law out.
Shen Xuan was her own daughter, and had also mentioned to her about that little girl. Although that child came from a strange background, she looked just like Xuan'er (according to Marquis Shen), and was also Xuan'er's only child. It was said that she was sincere and honest, yet magnanimous and proper. She was very fond of letting the child in and spoiling him right under her nose. No matter how good the other noble daughters were, how could they be better than her own granddaughter?
Right now, Shen Family was flourishing, and was very highly regarded. Who knew how many people behind them were so envious that they would vomit sour water?
It was like adding flowers and cooking oil, there was really no need to add a noble family member.
Shen Jingbin's mother was the daughter of a fifth-grade official. Even though her grade was not high, her father was in power. At that time, Shen Family had already started to decline, and to be able to hire her, only the two of them were old. However, she had entered the house full of love, and was coaxed by her husband for a few years. In the end, when her father-in-law left, no one could suppress her anymore, and her husband revealed his true form and started hugging left and right again. She was so angry that she almost failed to protect his third child, Shen Xuan. The little girl Xuan was born weak, and it was not even that person's fault!
She even said that she was unkind, jealous, and very protective of that useless man.
She promptly let go and handed the court to her mother-in-law, who was already engaged to be her concubine. In any case, this was a family that was about to see the bottom, so she didn't have anything to worry about. She could only stubbornly defend her dowry and ancestral land, ignoring everything else.
There was only so much money in the family, and if he spent it all, it would be over. When his son grew up and lost his mother-in-law, his husband would have no one to support him and would not have the money to go out and have fun.
Every day, she would support that man with all sorts of food and meat, and even bestowed him with a beautiful concubine. Finally, she had tormented him until he was gone.
When a person was old, it was best for him to be a little calmer and crave for a short life.
Shen Jingbin's mother slowly opened her eyes as the prayer beads flew between her fingers.
He looked at his daughter-in-law for a moment before turning away and sighing inwardly.
So what if she was a noble? This daughter-in-law was indeed a noble one. She talked big, had big rules, and interacted with all the nobility s. If not for her son's righteousness, she would have brought him to the gutter.
Are courtiers that easy to befriend? He even secretly stood on a team...
Mother Shen frowned slightly.
He was old and useless, and didn't like what the younger generation said. However, on at least one day, he would absolutely not allow anyone to bring his Shen Family into a pit of fire!
"Find a time to have Xue'er invite her pampered guests to play for a day. You can arrange it. " Hen Qingxue, the direct descendant of Master Shen. She was thirteen years old, it was about time he got to know more people.
Shen Jingbin's mother only said that she was tired and let her daughter-in-law go.
Madam Hou thought that the Old Mistress was also on her side. After saying her goodbyes, she went to make the arrangements happily.
After waiting for others to leave, Mother Shen instructed her trusted aide, the nanny, to send a letter to Master Hou explaining everything in the family. When it came to her grandson's marriage, she had some reservations. She only said that her grandson would choose his own marriage, but she also hinted that she wanted to meet that country girl.
Marquis Shen who was far away in Fringe City received two letters from his family and finished reading them one by one. His Duke Xinyang's Mansion surname is Shen! His surname was not Li!
He was also troubled by the fact that he was ordered to inspect the military affairs at the border and could not leave without permission.
For a moment, he was at a loss of what to do. He could only send a letter to Huo Changyang, telling him to protect the seedlings. As for the neither human nor demon Ren Ang, the Assistant Minister Ren did not mind, so what could he do? He could only discuss it with his younger sister.
In fact, he was very fond of his niece. She was honest and sincere, simple and delicate. Her beauty was not worse than any of the noble ladies in the capital, and she did not have those bad tempers either. She was just right for Yuan'er. Helplessly, there was also the uncontrollable Ren Ang …
Even if he did not like these people, he would still revere them.
There was no other reason but the fact that his life had been saved by the lass' lover.
It was a … Even the expressions of the ghosts and deities changed to one of a great character's.
Master Shen pinched the center of his brows, put his past aside, took up his brush and returned home to write some letters, then focused on handling the matters of public service.
Ren Ang did not know that he had suddenly gotten a cheap father. At the moment, he was happily strolling in the fields with the young grasses, baiting the fishes from time to time. In fact, the rice seedlings between the snails and some of the worms, have become fish food, do not need to feed. Ren Ang just wanted to play, to let the fish grow fatter at the same time, so he could eat roasted fish!
