The five hundred and ninetieth chapters are clear (2)
Since Shen Zhou returned home, Shen Rui has never met him face to face.
At that time, when he learned that Shen Zhou was back, Shen Rui rushed back to the mansion from the village - no matter how angry he was with Shen Zhou because of the exposure of Sun's regretful marriage, this was his uncle in terms of etiquette, and he would not go back to see him. It doesn’t make sense either.
It was just that when Shen Zhou entered the house, he went directly to the ancestral hall. Shen Rui stayed at home for a whole day and no one came out. However, Mrs. Xu sighed and persuaded him to go back first.
"I'm afraid your second uncle won't feel very comfortable seeing you." Mrs. Xu sighed. "After a few days, he will change his attitude. I'll send someone to call you back so that the whole family can have a reunion dinner." Consider it a blessing for him to catch the wind and get rid of bad luck..."
Shen Rui nodded in silence, knowing in his heart that Xu was actually giving him a buffer period.
After being busy at the village for more than ten days, Mrs. Xu never sent anyone to call Shen Rui back.
Shen Quan, on the other hand, had previously helped Shen Lian establish a liaison with him. Later, Du Laoba went directly to Shen Rui and took over more and more of the work. As a result, Shen Lian had less things to do. Shen Quan would go to Zhuangzi from time to time to help. Shen Rui was busy at work, and he brought all the news from home.
Shen Rui learned from Shen Quan that after Shen Zhou knelt for two days, Mr. Xu and the third master took turns scolding and persuading Mr. He. Finally, Mr. He pulled Brother Xiao Nan to show up and walked out of the ancestral hall.
Because he was feeling guilty, angry, and cold and hungry while kneeling in the ancestral hall, Shen Zhou fell ill when he came out. He had a severe fever for a time. Fortunately, his health was still good. He asked a famous doctor to treat him, and he soon got better.
Shen Quan said with an unhappy look on his face: "I think the eldest uncle was afraid that you would make him more worried in front of the second uncle and make him sick for a while longer, so she didn't ask you to go back."
Wufang had received great favor from the Sun family and was the closest to the Sun family. When Shen Quan learned that it was Shen Zhou who regretted his marriage that made Sun family marry someone like Shen Yuan, he felt very angry and didn't care much about Shen Zhou. Such a good attitude, I couldn't help but complain to Shen Rui.
Shen Rui knew his mentality, but he could not encourage him to resent Shen Zhou, so he patted his arm and sighed: "Third brother, a drink and a peck are predestined, and it is useless to bring it up now. Now the Shen family When faced with a catastrophe, it is best to work together to cope with it."
Shen Quan nodded and said dullly: "Brother Rui, don't worry, I'm not one of those people who don't know what's important."
A few days later, the New Year was approaching. From the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, the Yamen was sealed and the New Year officially entered. Shen Rui could not stay in Zhuangzi all the time, so he handed everything over to Li Chang and took his long entourage with him. The boy returned to the city.
It snowed for the third time this winter just the day before yesterday. Since the snow was not too heavy and the sun has been abundant in the past two days, most of the snow has melted away and the road is quite muddy.
Shen Rui opened the curtain in the car and looked at the road. He couldn't help but think, if Xiyuan could become popular in the whole city, I wonder if Brother Shou or the wealthy businessmen would invest in repairing the main roads leading to Xiyuan. .
It's a pity that in his previous life, he didn't know the road construction technology or the proportion of cement. He only vaguely remembered that in ancient times, glutinous rice juice was used to build walls, which would be very strong. He didn't know what the specialties of this road surface were.
Now Liu Zhong happens to be solely responsible for the work-for-relief matter, and often dispatches disaster victims to build roads. He can look for opportunities to go around, get to know a few professionals from the Ministry of Industry, and chat with them, maybe they will have some ideas.
While I was thinking about it, the chief attendant reported outside that my uncle Mao Chi was driving ahead and wanted to talk to Shen Rui.
Shen Rui jumped out of the car, and Mao Chi also got out of the car and came over to greet him, so he asked Shen Rui: "Second brother, where are you going? It just so happens that I am going to look for you."
Shen Rui said with a smile: "I just came back from the village outside the city. Chang Qing happened to be at home together."
Mao Chi responded and got on Shen Rui's carriage, and thanked Shen Rui for the fresh vegetables he had sent a few days ago, saying that the elderly at home and Sister Yu were very happy.
That day, after Du Laoba personally went to Shen's farm to catch Shen Rui's line, he specially sent fresh vegetables to the farm twice to show his closeness.
When Shen Rui collected his vegetables, he thought they were grown by him for the management of the restaurant. Later, when he heard Zhang Hui talk about it, he realized that such a vicious and vicious gangster with hands full of blood was actually a believer in Buddhism.
On the 15th day of the lunar month, we have to fast, and we even built a farm specifically for this purpose, and set up a greenhouse to grow vegetables.
Shen Rui was speechless after hearing this. He wondered if this guy knew that he had sinned deeply, so he found someone to put his soul in.
Fresh vegetables were hard to find in winter, and Shen Rui would not refuse. After collecting the vegetables, he sent them home and asked Xu to distribute them to relatives in Beijing. The Yang family and the Mao family naturally received the most.
The two chatted for a while in the car, but Shen Rui found that Mao Chi looked a little unnatural, as if he was about to say something, but he was hesitant to say anything.
Mao Chi didn't say anything, and Shen Ruibian didn't ask any questions.
When they arrived at the mansion, the two of them went to see Mrs. Xu first. Since Shen Zhou had just taken medicine and was resting, the two of them left alone and sat in Jiuruju's study.
Mao Chi confirmed that all the boys outside Shen Rui's study were far away, then closed the door tightly and sat down opposite Shen Rui.
Seeing that he was so cautious, Shen Rui became even more curious. He already had many guesses in his mind. He couldn't help but wonder if something happened to the He family again. He didn't expect Mao Chi to explain it, but he was not talking about the He family, but the Qiao family.
.
But it was said that Mao Chi had always been very popular in the Hanlin Academy. In recent years, when he was free from errands, he had one or two friends who often got together to have a drink and talk about poetry and painting, which was quite pleasant.
Just yesterday, a well-to-do Hanlin host gathered at the famous Moon Viewing Tower. Most of the poor Hanlin people in Beijing visited famous stores. Naturally, they all responded to the call. Mao Chi also ate a lot these days.
Please, the others pulled you and followed.
When we arrived at the Moon Viewing Building, we met the host's classmate from the academy again, so they shared two tables and merged into a large private room for fun. They even called out the singing diva, and had a great time changing glasses.
Not expecting Mao Chi to relieve himself midway and return, he heard the two of them muttering at the corner of the corridor, as if they were wondering whether they should tell Mao Chi something.
Mao Chi was slightly drunk at first, and he became a little more energetic when he heard his name, but when he listened carefully, it seemed that the two of them had quarreled and stopped talking about him.
He was drunk and couldn't help but go over to see what was going on.
One of the two was Tang Hanlin, who had a good relationship with him, but the other was unfamiliar to him and was probably one of the academy scholars.
Seeing Mao Chi coming over, the two of them were quite embarrassed. Facing Mao Chi's questions, the academy scholar couldn't say a few words and seemed to want to get away with it, but Tang Hanlin glared at each other and said that he must tell Mao Chi.
Finally, Mao Chi heard that Qiao Yongde was responsible for Shen Luo's death. The scholar was at the scene and witnessed with his own eyes the process of Qiao Yongde's efforts to change Shen Luo's horse.
At that time, Mao Chi was so drunk that he didn't have time to think about it. After listening to it, he just felt the resonance in his head, and he didn't care about the unfinished banquet. He went back to accuse him and left home.
Although Sister Yu is now adopted into the eldest house and is recorded in the name of the Xu family, this was made clear during the marriage negotiation. The Mao family also knows that Sister Yu is the concubine of the second master Shen Zhou.
My brother-in-law was killed by his mother’s nephew. He was the only male heir of the three heads of the Shen family at that time!
Although Mao Chi didn't know about the previous grievances between the Qiao family and the Shen family, and Sister Yu didn't mention the Qiao family to him, the Qiao family stabbed Shen Zhou in the back this time, and everyone in the court knew about it. Mao Chi How could the son-in-law of the Shen family not know this?
He didn't want his wife to be embarrassed, so he didn't ask Sister Yu anything, but he also understood that the Shen Qiao family was no longer close to each other.
Mao Chi returned home, changed into clothes that were stained with alcohol, and was about to go to Shen Rui's house to find Shen Rui.
Sister Yu hurriedly stopped her: "How could you forget that my second brother is now living in a village outside the city! And it's almost time for curfew. Let's go to the office early tomorrow."
Only then did Mao Chi remember it, smiled bitterly, took the hangover soup handed to him by his wife and drank it in one gulp.
When he woke up in the morning, Mao Chi thought about what happened at the banquet last night and realized that something was fishy. He was originally a smart man, but he was loyal and not good at calculations.
So he arrived at the Hanlin Academy early in the morning, asked for leave from his superior, and was about to leave the city to go to Zhuangzi to look for Shen Rui, and then he met Shen Rui by chance on the road.
"It seems like you were specially tricked into listening to me. I'm afraid you are also involved. I will definitely tell you if I know." Mao Chi frowned, with an unhappy look on his face. There is no need to have any friendship with Tang Hanlin in the future.
Shen Rui thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to pay too much attention. This matter may not be for us."
Now that Shen Zhou has lost his official position, there is only one sesame official Shen Run left in the Shen family's officialdom, while the eldest master of the Qiao family will never be hired, the second master is a businessman, and only the third master Qiao wants to resurrect, but there is no movement yet.
If something like this is exposed at this time, I'm afraid it's directed at the Qiao family. Is someone trying to prevent Mr. Qiao from resurrecting?
Three years ago, Mr. Qiao San had a good future. Shen Rui heard Shen Cang mention that if he could let go of his duties and come back to the Sixth Department of Beijing to practice for a few years, he could expect to be promoted to the position of Minister.
In the past three years of Ding You's life, the situation in the court has been changing. The late emperor's reign has been great, the new emperor has ascended the throne, and the three ministers have been fighting openly and secretly with the inner court. If Mr. Qiao San wants to find a good job, he must have the help of a capable person. I think this is the reason why Mr. Qiao San turned to the He family and betrayed the Shen family.
But I wonder if He Dongsheng has the kindness to find a position for Qiao San? Shen Rui sneered in his heart, is the person named He a Bodhisattva? I'm afraid he is a Rakshasa.
After it came out that the impeachment papers against Shen Zhou were vouched for by the Qiao family, Mr. Qiao went to the Shen Mansion in person. But the Shen family closed their doors tightly, just like they did to He Dongsheng.
Even Mrs. Xu, who is extremely well-educated, couldn't help but said to Shen Rui: "Qiao San and He Da are becoming more and more similar. They are acting coy and trying to have both sides. They act like everyone else is stupid."
Later, a few days after Shen Zhou returned home, the Qiao family also received news. Qiao Da and Qiao San came to "visit the patient", but they were also turned away.
Qiao Da, on the other hand, turned around and went back with the gift of "visiting a patient". I'm afraid he still felt saved, so he never showed up again.
On the other hand, Qiao San left the gift at the concierge. According to the Shen family's rules, they could not throw things directly on the street, so they had to send someone back to Qiao San's residence, leave them outside the door and leave.
Being so humiliated, Qiao San actually came to "visit the patient" the next day. Not only did she visit her brother-in-law, she also asked to visit her sister.
Of course, I was rejected again.
Shen Rui doesn't quite understand Master Qiao San's mentality, because now the Shen family has nothing for him to plot, so why do they keep coming here and pretending to be close to each other?
As soon as the impeachment memorial came out, who in the world didn't know what the Shen Qiao family was like, and no one believed him for doing this.
Just deceive yourself and others.
Although Mao Chi had always believed in Shen Rui's plan, he still couldn't help but said: "But Brother Ruoluo is really what that person said, he was killed by the Qiao family..."
Shen Rui's eyes were as cold as a pool of water and his tone was serious: "The Qiao family owes the Shen family more than this. When the Tongwa case is understood, I will let the Qiao family pay them back one by one."
Mao Chi had never seen such a vicious Shen Rui. He was startled and called out to his second brother, adding: "Revenge must be avenged. Second brother does not need to be angry for such villains."
Shen Rui waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, Chang Qing, these people are not worthy of being angry..."
While they were talking, the boy outside reported that the third master was here.
Shen Ruimao hurriedly stood up and went out to greet him.
Yesterday, the third master's in-laws' Tian family sent someone to ask Mr. Tian to go back to his parents' home. Today was the day when the third master died, and the New Year was approaching. The third master, along with his wife and children, went to his in-law's house to deliver New Year's gifts in person.
Shen Rui thought they would stay for a day and come back in the evening, but he didn't expect them to come back so quickly.
Seeing that the third master looked gloomy, Shen Rui said that he had caused displeasure at the Tian family, so he came back early.
It's just that the third master came to Jiuruju this time. I don't know if he wants to talk to him about the Tian family's problems. He is a nephew, so it doesn't hurt to listen. It's embarrassing to have Mao Chi, my niece-in-law.
Mao Chi could also tell that the third uncle was unhappy. When he met with Mrs. Xu, he knew that the third uncle had returned to his in-laws. Now he was afraid of embarrassment, and it was not good for the third uncle to leave immediately as soon as he came back, so he had to stand with his hands down. aside.
The third master sat down and drank two sips of tea, looked at Mao Chi, and said in surprise: "What are you doing there, Chang Qing? You are not an outsider, and you are still so reserved. Come sit down and talk. I heard some news today, and I am here to talk to you." You say."
Shen Rui and Mao breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that it was not the Tian family.
It is indeed not the Tian family, but the Qiao family.
He also told the third master through other people's words that it was Qiao Yongde who had caused Shen Luo to die prematurely.
This person's identity is more credible than that of Tang Hanlin, a scholar from the academy. He is Mrs. Qiao San's nephew Su Guisheng.
Because of his talent, this man had begged the Qiao family to transfer to the Shen family a few years ago before he could enter the Tianjia Nancheng Academy. He passed the exam in the same year as Shen Luo and was among those who visited that day.
It's just that although Su Guisheng passed the examination as a teenager, he had bad luck in the examinations and failed in two subjects in succession. Because he was still young, he refused to donate his official status as a scholar. He also wanted to seriously take the imperial examination and become a Jinshi, so he stayed in the academy.
Tian Shanchang said to Shen Run with a serious face that Su Guisheng was a good chess player and the two of them played chess from time to time. Just yesterday, when they were enjoying tea, they accidentally talked about Shen Zhou, and Su Guisheng showed a tangled look on his face.
Chief Tian was quite puzzled and asked a few more questions. Su Guisheng replied that although he was a relative of the Qiao family, he didn't like what the Qiao family did to the Shen family.
He seemed to know many things about the Qiao family. He bluntly said that when the eldest son of the Qiao family was imprisoned for the embezzlement case, it was Shen Shangshu who offered money and favors to get him back. Although he would never be hired, his life was saved.
But the Qiao family was ungrateful and never paid back the money they owed to the Shen family. He vaguely heard that Mrs. Qiao actually thought Shen Cang didn't retain Mr. Qiao's official position.
After Old Mrs. Qiao passed away, the Qiao family had just lost a large sum of money and couldn't even afford the funeral expenses. It was Shen Cang who used the money to bury Old Mrs. Qiao in a dignified manner.
Regardless of relatives, since the Shan Shen family and the Qiao family have shown such great kindness, the Qiao family should not help outsiders harm the Shen family.
The more Su Guisheng talked, the more excited he became, so he casually said that Qiao Yongde had also harmed Shen Luo and owed the Shen family his life.
Tian Shanchang was extremely shocked. Su Guisheng also realized that he had made a mistake and changed his words in a panic.
How could Chief Tian Shan allow him to talk nonsense? He sternly ordered him to speak clearly.
Su Guisheng seemed to have deep resentment against the Qiao family, so he talked about everything that happened that day. He also defended himself. Everyone was in a hurry when the incident happened, and no one thought about it deeply. Later, Zhou Mao confessed his crime and was expelled from the clan. He fell into the water and died, and everyone forgot about it.
The Zhou family also sent people to inquire, and gave money to keep people quiet so that no one could talk about it anymore.
That was the son of the eldest princess, the emperor's cousin, Qianhu Zhouxian of Jinyiwei, who had spoken. How dare any of the scholars who went with him that day dare to talk.
Moreover, the relationship between the Shen and Qiao families was very close at that time. Although the person who died was the son of the Shen family, he was also the flesh and blood of the Qiao family's aunt. Only a few people heard about Qiao Yongde's horse s There were not many witnesses, so who dared to go there rashly? "Spreading trouble" in front of the Shen family.
After hearing this, Chief Tian was shocked and angry. He cross-examined Su Guisheng repeatedly. After sending him away, he immediately went to see Mr. Tian and explained the matter.
Mr. Tian pondered for a long time and said: "No matter who is behind this matter, since we know it, there is no reason to hide it. The Shen family will investigate whether it is true or false."
Only then did the Tian family invite Tian to return to her parents' home. Shen Run was originally expected to come with his wife, so he just informed her of the matter.
After the third master finished explaining the whole story, he frowned when he saw that Shen Rui and Mao Chi looked strange. Just when he was about to ask a question, Shen Rui already told him that Mao Chi had also received the news.
Mao Chi also simply repeated his previous experience.
The third master was stunned for a long time and then said: "It seems that someone is planning something against our family again."
Shen Rui said: "I originally thought it was to deal with the Qiao family and prevent Mr. Qiao from resurrecting. But... it is easy to set up a small bureau so that Chang Qing can get the news. Who is so generous and can take advantage of the Tian family? Let our uncle and nephew What can I do if I know this?"
The third master said coldly: "Fate. Whether we say it or not, it will put a thorn in the second brother's heart."
Shen Rui sighed: "Second uncle's mistake now...is that he has resigned from the Imperial Academy. I don't know what kind of position he can find in the future."
Or maybe it is impossible to return to officialdom. After all, Shen Zhou is also fifty years old when he knows his destiny.
There is absolutely no value in scheming against Shen Zhou. Where are the Third Master and Shen Rui? Zhima Guan, a young scholar.
The current Shen family is really not easy to plot.
The third master was originally a person who was indifferent to fame and fortune. In addition, he had been in poor health since he was a child and had never cared about his official career and finances. But now he suddenly hated himself for not living up to expectations. If his body and bones were in better shape and he had ended up winning fame earlier, he would be able to do it now. As a pillar of officialdom, he supported the Shen family.
Shen Rui noticed that the third master's thoughts were fluctuating, and his face gradually turned sickly red. He hurriedly brought the tea and advised: "Third uncle, don't be upset. No matter what tricks they come up with, we will remain unchanged in the face of all changes. We will just wait and see what happens." "
The third master stabilized his mind, took the tea cup, moistened his lips and put it aside. He took a deep breath and said slowly: "At the beginning, naturally, I wanted to check the horses. But...including Luo'er's mount, Many horses in the racecourse died from an overdose of croton. In addition to Luo'er's unfortunate death, others also fell off their horses and suffered minor injuries. After Luo'er fell off his horse, everyone rushed him to the hospital in a panic, and no one paid attention to which horse he was riding. Afterwards, we couldn't find anything."
Mao Chi couldn't help but said: "Then what these two people said may not be true. If they are deliberately deceiving us..."
The third master closed his eyes and carefully recalled what happened back then.
Shen Rui also thought about Qiao Yongde in his mind. He hadn't seen him for a long time and had forgotten a lot. However, the unpleasantness of the first meeting still left a slight impression. He was a man who thought very highly of himself. He didn't have many nice things to say when he opened his mouth. He was not very likeable. , even among the brothers of the Qiao family, his popularity is not good.
If he said that such a person accidentally harmed Shen Luo out of selfish motives, he would believe it.
What kind of person is that dandy Zhou Mao who thought of giving Ma Ba Dou such an insidious and rogue trick?
Unexpectedly, Shen Rui suddenly remembered Zhou Xian, Zhou Mao's brother, whom he met on the street that day.
The grandson of Empress Dowager Zhou and the legitimate son of the eldest princess, he has noble royal blood and inherited the gentleness and elegance of a scholarly family. His noble son Zhou Xian.
The Zhou Xian who went to the house of his concubine to admit his mistake, the Zhou Xian who turned around and exterminated his concubine's clan, and then drowned his concubine to death.
Su Guisheng said that the Zhou family paid for the seal, which meant that Zhou Xian had cleaned up the matter from beginning to end.
Now... is it possible that these revelations...
"Third uncle, tell me, could it be that Zhou Xian from the Zhou family used some method?" Shen Rui expressed his confusion. In fact, it was Zhou Xian's method, but what did Zhou Xian want? This matter has already been done It's been so long.
Shen Rui unconsciously thought of the conflict between the Zhou family and the Zhang family, two generations later. Although this week was not the other week, after all, Marquis Qingyun and Uncle Chang Ning were Zhou Xian's uncles.
That day Zhou Mao came out to plead guilty, but it was Zhang Yanling who was at the table.
Zhou Xian revealed this matter at this time, could it be to make Shen Qiao's family quarrel and bring up the old things again.
The crime of murder was the Empress Dowager Zhang's biological brother, and Zhang Yanling could not escape the law.
After hearing Shen Rui's analysis, the third master also began to think about it. He shook his head for a while and said: "I don't know what Zhou Xian is going to do. But... Qiao Yongde's incident is probably true. Back then, the second sister-in-law went back to Qiao's house to grow up. The cause of the commotion is not because we are suspicious of Qiao Yongde, but because we are angry with him for not taking good care of Luoer."
Shen Rui also remembered that he had heard this passage from a servant, and given the character of the second wife Qiao, it was normal for her to scream and kill.
The third master said: "I don't know if Qiao Yongde was frightened by her, or if he had something in his heart. He didn't come to Luo'er's funeral for several sacrifices. Originally, he and Luo'er were the best friends." He paused, and then Said: "It is also the thing that he likes to please Luo'er the most."
Although nothing happened to the Qiao family at that time, it was already in decline. Qiao Yongde was the youngest son of Mr. Qiao and was very favored. But how did the food and clothing expenses of a son of a fifth-rank official compare with that of a minister?
Not to mention that the Shen family was wealthy and Shen Luo was the only son. Whatever good things Qiao had, he would bring them to his son. Qiao Yongde was very jealous of Shen Luo's things. He took away many of them, including pens and ink or vases and ornaments.
Because he was her mother's nephew, Mrs. Qiao turned a blind eye and didn't care much.
It is normal for Qiao Yongde, who has been pampered in this way, to ride Shen Luo's horse on the racecourse.
"I'm afraid we can't find out whether it's true or not. If Zhou Xian really took action, I'm afraid it will be true if it's false." The third master turned to Shen Rui and gritted his teeth and said, "I will go and tell the second brother that he knows too." You should know what the Qiao family is like."
Shen Rui nodded in agreement. If Zhou Xian really took action, even if they didn't tell them, Zhou Xian would have found a way to let Shen Zhou know about it. Instead of waiting until then and being passive, it would be better to take the initiative and tell him now.
As for what the Zhou family is planning, well, if the Zhou family is planning to make the Zhang family suffer a big loss, Shen Rui is also happy to see it happen and doesn't mind if this old case is brought out and stirred up.
The uncle and nephew had a good discussion, and the third master knew that Mao Chi was in an awkward position, so he sent him away first, "It's the New Year's Day, and things are busy at home. Changqing, please go home and help."
Mao Chi happened to come down the stairs and said goodbye to the third master, his uncle and his nephew, and then went to see Mr. Xu to say goodbye. Mr. Xu and Mr. He stuffed a lot of things for Sister Yu, and then left.
The uncle and nephew briefly discussed their arguments and went to find Shen Zhou together.
In winter, the vegetation is decaying and the sky is gray. In Shenzhou's courtyard, the maids and servants walk on tiptoe, for fear of disturbing the sick second master, which makes the small courtyard even more depressing and lifeless.
Shen Zhou was very surprised when he saw the two people coming in. He was a little embarrassed when he saw Shen Rui. He opened his mouth several times and wanted to say something to Shen Rui, but he couldn't.
He regretted his marriage that day, but what could he say to a child now? He couldn't help but feel a little depressed.
Before he could find his words, the third master over there had already spoken, "Second brother, there is something very strange happening today. I think I should let you know."
Shen Rui walked to the door silently, and quietly the servant outside asked for a cup of ginseng tea in case of emergency.
The third master told Shen Zhou what happened to Mao Chi and what Chief Wada told him today. He also told Shen Zhou about his and Shen Rui's analysis.
After thinking about it, he told everything about Shen Yan's previous report, his investigation of Qiao Da, and Qiao Sandu's collusion with the He family.
Shen Zhou's face turned blue and white when he heard it, and he really gritted his steel teeth.
His son, a child prodigy who won the imperial examination at the age of sixteen!
He is the only bloodline.
Qiao, home! Shen Zhou's hands tightened and he squeezed out these two words through his teeth, and his eyesight turned black.
Shen Rui had been paying attention to his emotions, and when he saw something was wrong with his expression, he quickly brought ginseng tea over.
When Shen Zhou suddenly saw Shen Rui appearing in front of him, his mood was indescribably complicated. If... if he had never regretted the marriage, would such a good son be his?
Would you be happier without the Qiao family?
Parents will not die early...
Brother Luo, Brother Jue...
My own official position...
Shen Zhou connected more and more everything that happened because of the Qiao family, and he already hated the Qiao family.
And there is a woman named Qiao living in his main courtyard, that crazy woman!
Shen Zhou held his forehead with one hand, covered his eyes, and whispered: "...let me think about it."
The third master and Shen Rui looked at each other, stood up and left, and then ordered the maid to observe Shen Zhou's movements carefully and tell them immediately if there was any recurrence of his illness.
The two went to Xu's place again and told Xu about the matter. Xu also went from shock to silence. In the end, she only said that telling Shen Zhou was the right thing. This kind of thing cannot be solved by hiding it.
The uncle and nephew did not wait for the news that Shen Zhou was so angry that his condition worsened, and as expected, Shen Zhou locked himself up for a few more days.
This time, it only took a few moments for Shen Zhou to react.
Shen Zhou asked people to check Qiao's dowry against Qiao's dowry list, load it into the car, and wrote a letter of divorce with his own hand. He divorced Qiao on the grounds that "evil diseases cannot be shared together" and sent her back to Qiao together with her dowry. Home.
It was not that Shen Zhou had never thought that after a hundred years of marriage between Qiao and him, if there was no heir, he would divide his inheritance and Qiao's dowry into several shares. Shen Rui and his fourth brother would get the big share, and Xiao Nan would also get a share. There is another piece that I want to send back to my hometown and be given to the child who will be adopted into Shen Jue’s name.
Although Shen Jue returned to the clan clan again, he had been his son for several years.
But now, he doesn't want to touch anything in the Qiao family.
He went back, but he didn't let the Qiao family just get away with the money. Isn't Shen Lian here? With his methods, he can make the Qiao family's business collapse.
After cutting off the Qiao family's financial resources, he would also cut off Qiao San's career!
The official career of the descendants of the Qiao family!
He doesn't want them to lose their lives, he wants them to live, but they have nothing, live in pain, and suffer!
He wanted the Qiao family to pay back everything they owed the Shen family.
When Mrs. Xu got the news that people from the Shenzhou Academy opened a warehouse to take stock of Qiao's dowry, she guessed Shenzhou's actions, but she just sighed and said "it's sinful" in a voice that only she could hear.
But she didn't want to pay attention to it. The Qiao family has become a cancer, so it's okay if this relative doesn't do anything.
Originally, it was nothing to support the Qiao family, but now Shen Zhou no longer wants to have anything to do with the Qiao family, so he will let him divorce his wife. At fifty years old, how can she still use her as a sister-in-law to give advice.
Shen Rui had no intention of letting the Qiao family go, so Shen Lian quietly came to tell him Shen Zhou's instructions, and Shen Rui felt that this was the right thing to do.
The Shen family is not a gangster like Du Laoba, so it is impossible to kill a few of the Qiao family to take revenge.
Then use economic means to solve it, and there are no laws or regulations. Everyone depends on their ability. The Qiao family is not as good as others in the business world, and they can't blame others when they sell a shop or a village.
The third master is more calm and has begun to look for useful people among his classmates and friends, in order to snipe the third master Qiao who is preparing to retaliate.
Now that we've broken up, there's nothing left to worry about.
The Qiao family's dowry is not a ten-mile red dowry, and she has secretly provided a lot of support to the Qiao family over the years. However, because the Shen family is rich and Shen Zhou has let his foreign friends go, she also has a lot of things, with more than thirty cars. Can fit.
Early in the morning, the motorcade set off from Shen's house and headed for Mr. Qiao San's mansion, which was quite spectacular.
Many passers-by who were watching the excitement asked what was going on, but the servants of the Shen family remained silent. The spectators made their own guesses, pointed and talked, and some followed the motorcade to watch the excitement.
When we reached the door of Mr. Qiao San's residence, someone would always come to negotiate. Now everyone watching the excitement knew that Mrs. Qiao's wife had been abandoned and returned home.
Mrs. Qiao was suffering from a serious disease, she was unconscious and no longer recognized people.
The Shen family was still raising people properly, but the Qiao family was not worried and teamed up with outsiders to kill their uncle's official son. Now the Shen family couldn't bear to repay the favor and broke off the marriage.
Even after the engagement was broken off, the large amount of dowry was sent back.
News spread quickly on the street, and the news became more and more distorted. Not only was Qiao's condition exaggerated, but the amount of the dowry was also exaggerated several times.
Soon everyone who should know will know.
Then, Mr. Qiao and his whole family came to Mr. Qiao San's house to "take the girl back to cultivate herself" and "ask the Shen family for an explanation", asking Mr. Qiao San to hand over all the people and dowry.
Mr. Qiao San was caught off guard by the Shen family's move. He was planning a revenge. It was the time to establish a good image. At this moment, he could still pretend to be the victim, so he didn't care about people and things. Give it all to him.
I don't want Qiao Da to be greedy. He only said that the amount of the dowry was wrong, and kept saying that passers-by saw with their own eyes how many cars there were. Could it be that you hid it?
Mr. Qiao San was so angry that he almost vomited blood. Doesn’t the eldest brother, Mr. Qiao, know how much his sister’s dowry was? It was Mr. Qiao who gave him the gift in the first place!
Besides, there is a dowry list as proof! Qiao Da made it clear that she wanted to extort more money from him!
Mr. Qiao San wanted to swallow this and continue to pretend to be a good person, but Mr. Qiao opened his mouth and the dowry amount was doubled. Where could he get so much money to give Mr. Qiao?!
The two brothers of the Qiao family had a quarrel and even got into a fight over the dowry of their divorced sister. The news soon spread throughout the capital through the mouths of the neighbors who were watching the excitement.
The Qiao family's reputation is completely ruined.
