Chapter 30 Returning

After hearing this, Shen Xinyue pretended to be suddenly enlightened and said with a smile: "I see. You guys really worked hard. You didn't let me down. Purchasing these items really made you tired, look. Those of you who are sweating profusely, please watch and reward me."

Although Si Qi was reluctant, he rewarded the three people with some small coins that he had prepared in advance according to the princess's wishes.

The three of them took the reward and thanked Shen Xinyue repeatedly before walking away.

When they reached the place where Shen Xinyue could no longer see him, Deng Liuer couldn't hold back his laughter, and his voice was filled with pride, "I'll just tell you, you don't have to be afraid. What else did she say that she wouldn't believe it?" Yes. See if she believes it.

You are right to listen to me. I bet she doesn't understand this at all, otherwise where did her nickname of "bastard" come from? It wouldn't be groundless.

Although she was a little more impressive that day, she just had a young lady's temper.

If a person like this carries her in a sedan chair and flatters her, she won't know that the sky is high and the sky is high, and she won't be able to prevent our buddies from getting rich."

Hu San'er and Hu Si'er also changed their frightened look at this moment, and one by one they surrounded Deng Liu'er and kept flattering him.

Hu San'er: "Brother Six, you are still awesome. In just a few words, you made that mother--ahem--the princess faint. We buddies admire her from the bottom of our hearts."

Hu Si'er: "That's right. Brother Six, this big list this time is really fat. It's even bigger than what we did in the previous few years. I didn't expect that the head of the family has been replaced by a new princess, so this matter will be easier to handle."

"But, Sixth Brother," Hu San'er suddenly looked troubled again, "You said if the old princess knew about this, would anything happen?"

Deng Liu'er glanced at him and said disdainfully: "You know that I know about this matter, and I know everything about heaven and earth. How could the old princess know about it? Besides, if the new master doesn't deal with the old princess, she will never do it either. I will tell myself.

What kind of grand ceremony is her reception this time? Apart from the emperor's, I'm afraid there is no other one in the world. How dare she go to the old princess to talk about this? That's impossible. Don't worry, don't be afraid!"

This Deng Liuer is a distant relative of the old princess, which is good, but he is a master who only recognizes money and not people.

This person is good at calculations and courageous. He will do whatever it takes to get money. He will cheat anyone except himself.

All the things he has done over the years have made him pluck out his feathers. It is true that the money from the major general's house has been put into his pocket overtly and covertly.

After his analysis, Hu San'er and Hu Si'er were completely relieved of their worries. They pulled Deng Liu'er and said, "Let's go, Sixth Brother. My brothers are treating you today, and we're going out to have a big meal."

Seeing these three sly-looking guys leaving the yard and disappearing, Si Qi rolled his eyes at them, still a little confused, "Princess, the prices of the things they purchased are simply astronomical!

Although I don’t know the prices of some extremely valuable items, I know a little bit about most of them. I think there must be something wrong with the top-quality goods in government stores. Why don’t you pursue them and instead give them rewards? "

Shen Xinyue narrowed her eyes, raised her eyebrows slightly, and said, "You don't know this, just learn it slowly."

Seeing Shen Xinyue's confident look, Si Qi felt at ease.

After the homecoming ceremony was arranged and the date for Shen Xinyue and Huo Weilou's homecoming was decided, someone was sent to notify the Jiangnan Shen family.

Jiangnan Shen family

Shen Chusheng, a native of Jiangnan, has a human face and an animal heart. Although his ancestors have been doing business for generations and their industries involve many fields, their scale has never been large and they can only be considered a small fortune.

Later, he met Song Ruyu by chance. Song Ruyu was a typical Jiangnan beauty. She looked like Xiaojiabiyu and made me feel pity for her. Shen Chusheng was obsessed with her at the first sight.

Later, he found out that Song Ruyu was the only daughter of the Song family, a well-established silk family in the south of the Yangtze River, and the apple of the eyes of the two elders of the Song family. He couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart and used all means to marry Song Ruyu.

Later, he inherited the Song family's property as he wished, and became a wealthy businessman.

Although he inherited his fortune from his wife, he quickly revealed his true colors and vividly performed the story of burning bridges across rivers.

Because Song Ruyu was kind-hearted and simple-minded, she only wanted to give birth to children and take care of the housework for him, but she did not know how to play with men's thoughts and did not know how to please. Shen Chusheng soon fell in love with the new and disliked the old, so he fell in love with a charming girl who was good at pleasing men. The happy Liu family took her as a concubine.

This Aunt Liu is the most sweet-tongued and sweet-tongued mistress.

Today, seeing Shen Chusheng holding a letter in his hand with a displeased look on his face, Aunt Liu hurriedly stepped forward and gently dusted his sleeves with a kerchief, and said, "Master, what's going on?" Who is this short-sighted person who is causing trouble for you? I wonder if you are tired enough from taking care of such a big business every day?"

After saying that, he summoned his servants to make tea for Shen Chusheng quickly. He poured it himself, blew it, and brought it to him, "Master, take a sip of tea quickly."

Shen Chusheng sat down, drank tea, and then said, "Do you know who this letter is from? It's that idiot Yue'er."

Aunt Liu's eyes wandered, and a look of disdain appeared on her face, "Oh, this Yue'er finally remembered this family. You said it has been a long time since we got married, and there is not even a little news. This is really a wedding. The girl who went out threw some water."

Not to mention, Shen Chusheng was so angry that he slapped the table, "What a waste. Back then, you said that she might be useful if she got married, and you pointed her to the Regent's Palace, even if she was an idle young man. , this daughter is not raised in vain.

Let’s see, it’s been so long since I’ve been in the Regent’s Palace, not to mention her, even the person she married there hasn’t received any news at all. It’s such a bad thing!”

Aunt Liu asked: "Then what did she say in the letter at this time?"

"Said she wants to come back! What's this useless thing doing coming back?! It's causing trouble for me." Shen Chusheng said angrily. The letter in his hand became more and more unpleasant and he threw it away.

"Master, don't be angry. If you want to come back, then let her come back. Even if she is married, she is still your daughter, so teach her a lesson."

When we married her off, in addition to the dowry, we also gave her to a house in the capital. If she can't help the family at all, it won't be a big loss!"

Thinking of that house in the capital, Aunt Liu became so angry that her teeth itched with hatred.

According to Aunt Liu's original plan, just give her some dowry to get by. Anyway, apart from her looks, Shen Xinyue has always been a fool. She would be happy if she got married early. I really don't expect her to be able to help the Shen family much. She's fancy. It's just the title of the Prince Regent's Palace.

However, Shen Chusheng didn't listen to her on this matter, and still felt reluctant to let go of the child and not be able to trap the wolf.

After finally getting close to the big tree of the Prince Regent's Mansion, he was interested in the reputation of the Prince Regent's Mansion, and what they were interested in was his wealth and Shen Xinyue's beauty. If his dowry was too shabby, based on Shen Xinyue's The title of "Idiot Daughter" naturally cannot lead to this marriage.

The "child" was given away, but the "wolf" was not trapped.

So when Aunt Liu mentioned the house in the capital, Shen Chusheng was even more furious, "You idiot is really stupid. I taught her over and over again how to spread the news to her family, how to blow pillows over there, and how to coax her mother-in-law." , but it didn’t work. When she comes back, I won’t teach her a lesson! Humph!”

Shen Xinyue's mother, Song Ruyu, learned by chance two days later from the servants that her daughter was going home to visit relatives. She was so excited that her eyes filled with tears and she couldn't control herself.

The daughter was her mother's heart and soul, and Song Ruyu was unwilling to marry her daughter to the capital far away from home.

Her daughter follows her own temperament, is kind-hearted and cowardly, and has no scheming intentions. If she is married to such a far away place, if she is bullied, there will be no one around her to complain to.

However, she could never be Shen Chusheng's boss, and in the end she had to watch her daughter get married with tears in her eyes.

These days, Song Ruyu has been thinking about her daughter every day. Now that she has received the news, she has finally let go of her worries and is waiting for the day when her daughter comes back.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it’s the day to return home.

When Shen Xinyue got off the carriage and stood in front of Shen's mansion, looking at the closed door, the memory of the original owner's family home seemed to be summoned by some kind of call, returning little by little.

It was a very uncomfortable feeling, even a little stinging.

Shen Xinyue breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to knock on the door.

She had already told Huo Weilou and the others on the way, asking Huo Weilou to stay in the carriage and keep silent while she wanted to return to her parents' home first.

Although Huo Weilou was surprised, he said he would obey his wife's orders.

After knocking several times, the servant's lazily voice came from the house, "Who is this? What are you knocking for?"

The door was slowly opened a crack, and a servant stuck his head out and asked impatiently: "Who are you looking for?"

"What? You don't know me anymore?" Shen Xinyue searched the memory of the original owner and found out that this was the servant of Shen's house and the person of Aunt Liu, the concubine of Father Shen.

In fact, the doorman already knew that Shen Xinyue was coming home today, and it was Aunt Liu who arranged for him to deliberately close the door to give Shen Xinyue a rude look.

He pretended to look at it twice, as if he just remembered, "Oh, the eldest lady is back. Come in."

After saying that, he turned around and walked in, leaving only a small gap for Shen Xinyue to enter.

In ancient times, the doors of wealthy families were thick and heavy, and it was difficult for a woman to open them with just her strength.

Shen Xinyue was getting angry and was thinking about how to teach this guy who looked down on others, when the door was opened a little.

Those who opened the door were Shen Xinyue's brother Shen Wangchi and her mother Song Ruyu.

Song Ruyu, who was worried about waiting for her daughter, saw Shen Xinyue standing in front of her now. She could no longer suppress the longing in her heart and held her in her arms. Her tears could not stop flowing down, "My Yue'er, Mom misses you so much. You married so far away, but you suffered so much, my miserable daughter..."

Every word was true, and the tears that kept pouring down wet Shen Xinyue's shoulders.

Although Song Ruyu has nothing to do with Shen Xinyue, she is the mother of the original owner. She and the original owner have become one, so she burst into tears and gently stroked Song Ruyu's back to comfort her: "Mother , Don’t cry anymore, isn’t Yue’er back now? Yue’er didn’t suffer, Yue’er is fine.”

Shen Wangchi has loved his only biological sister very much since he was a child. Seeing her standing in front of him intact as before, not looking like she was being bullied as expected, he wiped away his tears and then smiled, "Okay, don't even think about it. I cried. It’s good that Yue’er is fine, it’s good that Yue’er is back. You don’t know, Yue’er, these days, my mother is crying at home every day, and I miss you very much.”

"Why are you crying? You stand in front of your house early in the morning and cry. Are you depressed? Ah? It's not a worry-free thing."
