104 it depends on whether you dare
Shen Mingxian is not stupid. She knows very well that if someone in the family can save herself, it can only be Shen Qingru, the seemingly weak but actually determined girl in front of her.
Shen Mingxian has always been a person who knows how to advance and retreat. She is the most peaceful among her sisters. She is not as close as her younger sister Shen Huiyu and Shen Qingru, nor like Shen Muyun and Shen Huajing, she is like an enemy with Shen Qingru. Although her face is light, there should be a lot of courtesy and respect.
For example, she is good at needlework. Shen Qingru received embroidered handkerchiefs and purses embroidered by Shen Mingxian. Things are small things, and the embroiderer is not as good as the embroiderer in the house. However, this intention is rare. For example, Shen rushong, her mother's brother, brought all kinds of gadgets from the outside, including a small stove for cutting clay, a whole incense box pulled by the master, and a small basket woven by willow branches. Although they are worthless, they are all novel and interesting, which shows the depth of intention.
Even if she is a man with a heart of stone, I'm afraid she will treat her differently after Shen Mingxian's hard work. Besides, Shen Qingru always thinks she is a soft hearted person. In the face of Shen Mingxian's request, she really couldn't bear to refuse.
"There are many sisters in the house, but I am introverted by nature. The only one who makes friends with me is my sister. If my sister doesn't help me, I might as well kill myself." Shen Mingxian's tears rolled down her snow-white cheeks, adding a bit of sadness.
Shen Qingru frowned. Is Shen Mingxian threatening her with her own life? According to Shen Mingxian's lofty nature, she should not be able to say such words.
Nine times out of the ten, it was taught by Shen rushong, brother of the Shen Mingxian's mother compatriots.
Shen Rusong is the second master in the house. He is only one year younger than Shen Jing'an, but he has hundreds of thousands of hearts all over his body. He is the legitimate son of Sanfang and the only son of Shen Sanye and Gao. He has always been valued by the old lady and Shen Xinzhi. Tiger fighting brother, maybe Shen rushong can become Shen Jing'an's right-hand man. With such a mind, Shen Xinzhi also wanted to vigorously cultivate this nephew, but soon found that Shen rushong's heart and eyes were all used for little intelligence.
Shen rushong can't study or practice martial arts. He spends all his heart and eyes on doing business and making money, which makes Shen Xinzhi, who believes in poetry and rites and takes the right path of official career, very depressed. Businessmen make money, which is inferior in this era. How can the dignified prime minister's son do such a cheap thing?
Third master Shen is also very dissatisfied with this. He has beaten his son several times. However, Shen rushong fought and scolded. Shen rushong was still unrepentant. He played rogue with third master Shen with a smiling face. Third Master Shen almost didn't come up in one breath. However, Third Master Shen can only give up bitterly. The Communist Party of China has only such a son. Can't we kill him alive?
Shen rushong continued to do his business without skin and face. He had nothing to do to take the money he earned to honor his grandmother and mother, and buy some novel things for his siblings. After a long time, everyone is getting used to it.
Shen Qingru doesn't think there's anything wrong with it. Shen rushong earns money openly. What's the lower class? It's just that Shen Rusong's smiling, naughty and rogue strength makes Shen Qingru feel headache when he thinks of it. No wonder Shen Xinzhi and Shen Sanye have nothing to do with him.
Shen Mingxian's words have a strong sense of naughty and rogue. Shen Qingru feels that it is impossible for Shen Mingxian to be lofty and arrogant. The clean mouth of Shen Mingxian must be Shen rushong's advice to her to ask for herself.
Shen Qingru glanced faintly. Sure enough, Shen Mingxian lowered her head with a guilty heart and gently rubbed the ruby lotus silk bracelet on her wrist with her fingertips.
"Mingxian, did your brother ask you to tell me these words?" Shen Qingru hit the nail on the head and looked at Shen Mingxian with burning eyes.
Shen Mingxian looked up slightly nervously, looked at Shen Qingru quickly, lowered her head and nodded slowly.
"In that case, your brother should know that the decision-making power of this marriage is in the hands of your third uncle and aunt. Why didn't your brother persuade your third uncle and aunt to come to me instead?" Shen Qingru pointed out the selfishness of Shen Mingxian's brother and sister impolitely.
Shen Mingxian bit her lower lip and remained silent. What Shen Qingru said is indeed true. My brother knows the dirty things of the left family. The first choice is not to explain to his parents, but to teach him to ask for Tao. Shen Qingru does have his own considerations when he comes here.
Shen Rusong knows very well that with his parents' character, even if he knows that the Zuo family is deliberately cheating, he will not agree to give up his marriage at most. This marriage is simply a matter of honor for parents. Third master Shen himself is only a seven grade petty official, and his son looks like a worthless man. The son of a six grade official is the best for his daughter's future marriage.
Unexpectedly, the Zuo family of the fourth generation and the third Duke was willing to marry them. How honored is the Zuo family? Zuo Shilang is a second-class senior, Zuo huifei is a favorite, and Zuo Gongzi, the future son-in-law, is a famous talent. Mr. and Mrs. Shen are no longer satisfied with this marriage. Is the future son-in-law a slave? as easy as pie. Have a concubine? Which family's men are not three wives and four concubines? What's so surprising?
Shen rushong could guess what his parents would say, so he didn't waste his lips at all and directly paid attention to his cousin Shen Qingru.
He has another concern.
After all, the Zuo family has a great potential. Even if Shen Mingxian really quits marriage with the childe of the Zuo family, I'm afraid that the Zuo family will try to slander Shen Mingxian's reputation in order to cover up their son's scandal. After all, Shen Mingxian is a daughter's family. After she quits her marriage, she will have a bad reputation. I'm afraid the sons of the aristocratic family will stay away. I'm afraid it will be more difficult to get married in the future.
Shen Rusong made up his mind to Shen Qingru.
In Shen Rusong's opinion, this cousin has excellent means. Less than a year after she came back from Yecheng, she forced the arrogant Qin's mother and daughter to death and crazy. His meticulous mind and vicious means are beyond the reach of ordinary people.
But in his opinion, Qin's mother and daughter deserve it. He had long hated this big aunt who was born as a servant girl. She was a small family. When she presided over Zhongfu, she often filled her own pockets, and everyone in the back house was in danger. His father's salary was pitiful. Shen Rusong just didn't want to see his mother bend her knees to please the Qin family for the sake of family. Only then did he move his mind to make money in business. Since he earned the first pot of gold, he never asked for the monthly silver given by the Qin family.
As for Shen Muyun, a girl with empty eyes and nothing, she was praised by her uncle for her talent. Did the girl seriously call her brother once?
Qin's mother and daughter didn't take him as their nephew and brother. Naturally, Shen rushong didn't take them as his aunt and sister. Everyone just had a decent face. So I had a bad luck with Qin's mother and daughter. Shen rushong was happy to watch the play.
Shen Rusong saw Shen Qingru's excellent means early, so he warned his sister Shen Mingxian to make friends with Shen Qingru. Although sister Suoshi is a little cold-blooded, she knows the importance and importance. She has sufficient etiquette for Shen Qingru and tries to win her over on weekdays. Therefore, she has a good relationship with Shen Qingru among the sisters of the Shen family. Therefore, Shen Mingxian's marriage, Shen Rusong first moved his head to Shen Qingru.
In his opinion, Shen Qingru is not only smart and resourceful, but also makes friends with his Highness the king of Wu. It is said that the legendary god of war and the famous iceberg face, marquis Yunyang, also make friends with Shen Qingru. Shen Rusong's abacus is good. If Shen Qingru can help Mingxian say good words in front of the two, how can he be afraid of what means the left family will use again? Lend the left family a hundred courage. They dare not offend King Wu and Marquis Yunyang.
Shen Rusong's abacus is good, but Shen Qingru can't stand it. Shen Mingxian is as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. The left childe she found out is a hundred times more serious than what she told Shen Qingru. It is said that childe Zuo has personally told the Zuo family that the handmaid is dead and he is dead. The maidservant lives, he lives. He died with the handmaid.
If you marry such a person, you will spoil your concubine and destroy your wife in the future. Will the handmaid have a place for her when she gives birth to a son the next day? Shen Mingxian firmly decided that the fire pit of the left family must not jump.
Look at Shen Qingru's ambiguous attitude. Shen Mingxian is anxious to kneel down directly to Shen Qingru and ask her elder sister to show herself a clear way.
There's no way. It depends on whether the brothers and sisters dare.
Shen Qingru's lacquered eyes turned flexibly, and she hooked her fingers to signal Shen Mingxian to come over. Shen Mingxian quickly pasted them. After listening to Shen Qingru's words, she was silly.
This... Is too risky.
Shen Qingru shrugged indifferently. She gave it. Whether she wanted it or not depends on the Shen brothers and sisters themselves. Anyway, it's not her marriage.
Shen Mingxian gently bit her lips with her shellfish like teeth, hesitated for a while, and finally made up her mind.
The birthday party of the old lady of the left family happens to be the 15th of this month.
Old lady Zuo's life is safe and smooth. Although the husband Zuo Guogong has died, he loved her husband and wife when he was alive. He didn't even have a room. He really envied others. He has three sons and one daughter. The eldest son has won fame through his own talents. Now he has become a top official in the imperial court, which is highly trusted by the emperor. The second son has been an official for many years. He is also a big man and has great power. The only daughter who entered the palace as a imperial concubine was granted the title of imperial concubine Hui, which was very flattered. There was a sixth Prince under her knee.
The only worry is the attack on Zuo Jiang, the youngest son of the Duke of the country who is ignorant. Fortunately, even if Zuo Jiang is ignorant, his wife is the noble princess Yongning. With such a wife, Zuo Jiang will never be too bad in the future. Just this couple
Think of the youngest son and his wife. Lao Fu Zuo suddenly felt that his blood pressure was a little soaring.
Just, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Let them go... The old lady has a good state of mind and comforts herself.
Today is her good day, and her in laws will come in the future. Although old lady Zuo doesn't like Third Master Shen, she also wants to give Shen Xinzhi face. Besides, the old lady knows the scandal about her grandson best. Marrying a family daughter with a low status for her grandson can not only cover up the scandal of her grandson, but also keep her beautiful concubine, but also take care of her great grandson. This idea was conceived by old lady Zuo, who loved her grandson.
As long as she marries Shen Mingxian first and enters her left family, she will be a member of the left family. At that time, the raw rice has been cooked. What else can she say? Go back to your mother's house and cry at most. Don't you still have to serve Zuo Ningyuan and take good care of the concubine? Besides, her grandson was born in an aristocratic family. If it hadn't been for this, how could it be her turn to be Shen Mingxian's wife?
It's really cheap for her. Old lady Zuo sipped one or six Ann melon slices and thought faintly.
