Chapter 77

077 Zhou jialingyun

This middle-aged woman full of pearls is the only daughter of the old lady, Shen Qinglian, Shen Xinzhi's sister.

Before she got married, she was regarded as the apple of her eye by the old lady. Even if she went back to Shen's house to visit her relatives every year after she got married, the old lady generously gave away the gold, silver and precious stones in the house. Of course, most of these precious objects were awarded by the emperor to Shen Xinzhi. The old lady's behavior belongs to "generosity to others".

Shen Xinzhi is also very helpless about his mother's "generosity", but Shen Qinglian is his only sister after all. Even though he knows that his mother is eccentric, he can only bear it. The Qin family was very dissatisfied with this. Every time Shen Qinglian came to search, the Qin family always tried to stop it, which made the old lady more dissatisfied with the Qin family.

"Ouch, sister-in-law, what's the matter? You don't have to cry like this when you know I'm back." Shen Qinglian smiled and pointed to the Qin family who was paralyzed on the ground and smiled at the old lady.

Although the old lady was still bluffing her face, she frowned and said, "you have a big face."

Qin was paralyzed on the ground, but his eyes looked coldly at Shen Qinglian snuggling up to the old lady. This little sister-in-law is a shit stirring stick. Qin always despises it. Just to make Shen Xinzhi look good, my aunt and sister-in-law barely tore their face. Now, the younger sister-in-law who stole many treasures of the Shen family is likely to fall down when she sees her embarrassed appearance.

"Where's my niece Muyun, who is the best in the country and the best in the city?" sure enough, Shen Qinglian asked Shen Muyun about her next sentence. The gloating smile on her face made Qin want to slap Shen Qinglian's horse face with thick fat powder.

Sure enough, the old lady and Shen Xinzhi's faces turned black. Shen Qinglian pretended not to know and looked around in private. She regretted: "I also want Lingyun to learn from her cousin Muyun. It's a pity that Muyun is not here."

"Lingyun is coming too?" the old lady looked at her with great joy and blamed Shen Qinglian for not letting Lingyun in.

Shen Qinglian said with a smile. Without her mother's order, she didn't dare to let Lingyun come to see her without authorization. She pulled a little girl's hand in from outside the house.

The little girl was about thirteen or four years old. She was not tall, but her face was very delicate. The skin was as white and delicate as milk. A pair of peach eyes looked left and right and looked at the people in the room with a little curiosity. To Shen Qingru's surprise, although the little girl is still young, her figure has developed concave convex and exquisite, but she looks like a mature girl.

This girl is Shen Qinglian's daughter, Zhou Lingyun.

At first, Shen Qinglian married the young master of the Zhou family. In the first few years, she was also in love with her husband and wife. However, after a while, Shen Qinglian's unruly and domineering nature was exposed. She found various reasons to sell off the concubines of the young master of the Zhou family one by one. She was also very disrespectful to the mother of the young master of the Zhou family, beating, scolding and insulting. The young master of the Zhou family couldn't stand being bullied by her. He simply set up another small courtyard and moved out with his mother's favorite concubine, leaving Shen Qinglian at the Zhou family.

Shen Qinglian beat and scolded, and even used his brother as prime minister to intimidate young master Zhou. However, young master Zhou was determined to divorce his wife and refused to live with her. Shen Qinglian had no choice but to maintain the status quo and continue to be her grandmother in the Zhou house.

Zhou Lingyun is the only son of Shen Qinglian and young master Zhou. Although young master Zhou has another favorite concubine, he dotes on and cares for his daughter in every way. "Lingyun" was taken by young master Zhou for his daughter, and his kind father's love can be seen in general. And Shen Qinglian doted on her only daughter as if she were her heart and soul. She wanted to drink, eat, grass and paper. She wanted to be rich and extravagant. Instead, she raised Zhou Lingyun, a squire, like a noble daughter of an aristocratic family in the capital.

It was precisely because of his parents' love that Zhou Lingyun lamented his life. Obviously, in terms of talent and appearance, he is no worse than the sisters of his uncle's family, but the cousins are the daughter of the prime minister's house, and the future husband and son-in-law must be a noble man ranking as a duke. But I can only match those squires and rich businessmen and be a cheap business woman.

This was unacceptable to the arrogant Zhou Lingyun.

Shen Qinglian took her daughter Zhou Lingyun's little white hand and brought her to the old lady like a treasure. Zhou Lingyun politely said hello to her grandmother and uncle. The old lady had pulled her into her arms and hugged her.

"This child is very good..." the old lady looked at her granddaughter lovingly: "look at this skin, this lovely appearance... None of our children is as good as Lingyun..."

The old lady's words are undisguised eccentric. There is a national Shen Muyun in the Shen family. Needless to say, other Shen Qingru, Shen Mingxian and Shen Huajing are all spring orchids and autumn chrysanthemums, and each is good at winning. But there are several granddaughters, but there is only one granddaughter. She was born to her favorite daughter. The old lady's bias is understandable.

Shen Xinzhi stroked his long beard and said nothing. His mother belittled his daughter like this. Although Shen Xinzhi was unhappy, he couldn't show it.

Zhou Lingyun smiled in her grandmother's arms. Two lovely little pear vortices appeared on her cheeks, but her eyes secretly observed everyone in the room.

I heard that cousin Muyun of my uncle's family looks very beautiful. Now it seems that it is a boastful language of the world. These in the hall are at most beautiful, which is far worse than her Zhou Lingyun.

Zhou Lingyun's eyes skipped Shen Qingru and stayed on Shen Qingru for a while. Shen Qingru noticed her eyes and smiled at her gently.

"This must be cousin Muyun?" Zhou Lingyun suddenly opened his mouth, which made the old lady look sluggish.

"Cousin Muyun is in poor health and has a rest in Chuang Tzu." Shen Xinzhi opened his mouth and pointed to Shen Qingru to introduce Zhou Lingyun: "this is your cousin Qingru, who was just accepted as an adopted daughter by the imperial concubine a few days ago and named the Lord of Anning county."

The old lady belittles Shen Xinzhi's daughter. Shen Xinzhi is unhappy. Now, just in the name of introducing Shen Qingru, I beat the side drum for the old lady. No matter how good your granddaughter is, she is just the daughter of a squire. My daughter is a serious County Lord. Is she comparable to a squire's daughter?

The expression on Shen Qinglian's mother and daughter's face was startled. After all, they are far away from the capital and have no news. They only say that Shen Muyun is the best daughter of the Shen family. Unexpectedly, the Shen family has a county leader.

Think of the old lady's praise of Zhou Lingyun just now. Zhou Lingyun quickly broke free from the old lady's arms and saluted Shen Qingru in a regular manner: "my daughter Zhou Lingyun, I've seen the Lord of Anning county."

The old lady looked at Shen Qingru with slight dissatisfaction on her face.

Shen Qingru, with a gentle smile on her face, reached out to pick up Zhou Lingyun and smiled at Shen Qinglian, "I haven't asked my cousin to salute me before I greet my aunt. My cousin is very good. I get close when I see her. It's like my sister."

Anyway, her own sister is also a sinister and vicious Shen Muyun. She doesn't mind another Zhou Lingyun.

Hearing Shen Qingru's praise, Zhou Lingyun was delighted. This cousin was indeed a visionary. She saw that Zhou Lingyun had a great future, so she flattered her early.

Zhou Lingyun obviously thinks too much. Shen Qingru just thinks that having such an interesting cousin in the Shen family must be able to add a life reminder to the Qin's mother and daughter who are about to die, so as to make the muddy water of the Shen family more muddy.

With Shen Qinglian, the old lady will force Shen Xinzhi to find a noble marriage match for Zhou Lingyun anyway. It's interesting to think about it.

Under the old lady's burning eyes, Shen Qingru smiled and slipped a string from her wrist and handed it to Zhou Lingyun. She gently said, "I didn't prepare any meeting gifts for the first time. This string of fragrant rose red musk deer was given to sister Lingyun as my little intention."

Zhou Lingyun politely gave way, but Shen Qinglian glanced at Shen Qingru disdainfully. A bunch of broken red musk deer strings sent their mother and daughter away?

Seeing Shen Qinglian's disgraceful appearance, the old lady wanted to teach her daughter a lesson. Why is this silly girl so ignorant of goods? Shen Qingru's hands are all treasures given by the emperor. This string of red musk deer is as big as pearls, smooth and round, and red as blood. It should be a treasure.

Shen Qinglian only knows gold, silver and jewelry in her eyes. How can she know the value of this red musk string?

The old lady became intimate with her daughter's granddaughter and asked her daughter how long she planned to stay in the Shen family, but Shen Qinglian's eyes were red: "mother, I'm afraid we'll disturb brother for some time this time."

It turned out that Shen Qinglian's mother and daughter lived extravagantly, with the largest jewelry and the softest clothes. Over time, the Zhou family could not make ends meet. Although childe Zhou also gave Shen Qinglian's mother and daughter a lot of money, he couldn't stand Shen Qinglian's flowing money.

"I hired three music teachers for Lingyun. My mother also knew that Lingyun was always smart and the Zhou family was poor. I couldn't bear to bury Lingyun's music talent, which angered the old bitch of the Zhou family. The old bitch wouldn't let Zhou Po talk about giving our mother money, so I had to sell the old house of the Zhou family and take Lingyun to Beijing..." Shen Qinglian wiped the corners of her eyes with her handkerchief, A wronged look.

The old lady was very distressed. She held her granddaughter's hand and couldn't help blushing her eyes: "OK, OK, in the future, you two will live next to my old woman for a long time."

Shen Xin is stunned. Her sister and Zhou Po are still Zhou's wife. How can she stay in the Shen family for a long time? She wanted to persuade her mother, but before she spoke, the old lady stared at him and said angrily, "you are such a legitimate sister. I asked you to find her a good husband, but you found the white eyed wolf of the Zhou family!"

Shen Xinzhi bowed his head and dared not talk back to the old lady, but he was very helpless. When Shen Qinglian got married, he was only a six grade junior official in the court. Although Zhou Po talked about being a businessman, he had a wealth of money. It was more than enough to match Shen Qinglian. How could he think that his sister had ruined the family business of the Zhou family in the past few years?
