After Shen Xiu's defeat, Huang was no longer dissatisfied with her, only curious about why she wanted to take in that outhouse.
Shen Xiu said sternly: "I took her in for my own reasons. Not to mention other things, let's just say that she was bribed by Master Gu, and Master Gu's colorful embroidery workshop is now in our hands. With the other party's despicableness,
To that extent, she may not take any action. And I put that outer room under my nose just to see what she is going to do."
Huang thought for a moment and said, "In this case, it's okay for her to stay with you. But is that child really Fan Guangzu's?"
Shen Xiudao: "I'm not sure either. But she's living here now, so I'll just test it out slowly."
Seeing the disapproval on Mr. Huang's face, she said, "Sister-in-law, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."
"You go ahead and I'll listen." Huang said, "Is there anything we can't say between us?"
Although Huang said it very politely, Shen Xiu had to think carefully about her words.
"Sister-in-law, I know how you feel. It's just that Shopkeeper Fan has always wanted a daughter. We may have doubts about whether this child belongs to Shopkeeper Fan. But Shopkeeper Fan may not think so. In his heart, this child is entrusted to him.
So I advise my sister-in-law not to quarrel with this child until she finds out who his biological father is."
Huang thought carefully about the words Shen Xiu said, especially the sentence "The child has placed his hopes on him", and her face couldn't help but darken, "It's my fault for not living up to expectations. I even gave birth to two sons. If
If I could have given birth to a daughter, I would not be in the situation I am in today."
Mr. Huang knew better than anyone the reason why Fan Guangzu kept the outer room. He had always wanted a daughter to inherit the family's Bian embroidery, so he insisted on keeping the outer room.
Shen Xiu smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, don't say that. Everyone in the world likes sons. If my sister-in-law has two sons in a row, it's too late for others to envy her! But in this matter, Shopkeeper Fan is also wrong. Even if he wants a daughter, he can't find one.
A woman of unknown origin.”
Huang felt that she had found a soulmate and nodded: "I thought so too, so I kept getting angry and ignored him."
"My sister-in-law has been ignoring him, which is not a solution." Shen Xiudao: "I don't think my sister-in-law wants to reconcile with Shopkeeper Fan, but she is angry that he created an outside room. Now Shopkeeper Fan can't break up the outside room.
Maybe, but if this daughter from the outside family is really Shopkeeper Fan's, then her dream will come true. My sister-in-law can raise this child herself, so Shopkeeper Fan will definitely not dare to let you down in the future out of guilt."
"Of course, if sister-in-law insists on continuing to make trouble like this, just pretend that I never said this."
Huang thought for a while and felt that Shen Xiu's words made some sense. But after all, she couldn't get angry with what Shopkeeper Fan did, so she didn't say anything for a while.
Shen Xiu stopped trying to persuade and just said: "What I said doesn't mean anything. I just feel that outsiders are thinking about how to deal with us. If our own people don't unite, then things will really be more difficult."
This sentence was like a basin of cold water, which suddenly extinguished Mr. Huang's anger.
Shen Xiu was right. Now powerful enemies are everywhere. If she continues to have trouble with Fan Guangzu, wouldn't she allow the other party to take advantage of the opportunity?
Seeing that Mrs. Huang's expression softened, Shen Xiu added a few more words: "If sister-in-law is really angry, after I resolve these matters, she can make any trouble she wants. Even if you want to reconcile, I will stand by you."
On your side."
What Huang actually wanted was someone's understanding and comfort. Unfortunately, Fan Guangzu liked to escape and did not fully admit his mistakes, so he could not give Huang what he wanted. That's why Huang couldn't let go.
Now with Shen Xiu's words, Huang felt as if her heart had found a place, and her eyes couldn't help but turn red, "Your words are enough."
She embarrassedly took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears, "I understand now. Most men are unreliable, and we women are the ones who can be more considerate of women."
Mrs. Huang came angrily, but when she left she looked relieved.
When Shen Xiu returned to the room, she heard Wei Yan ask: "What did you tell her? When she left, I saw that not only was she not angry at all, but she walked easily, as if she had nothing to worry about."
When I went to see Mr. Huang just now, I was in such a hurry that I didn't even wear any jewelry.
While Shen Xiu was selecting jewelry from the box, she said: "I didn't say anything. I just explained the reason why I took Aunt Lian in, and then comforted her a few words. She is a woman, and I am also a woman. Of course I know why she
She was angry, so I stood in her position and said some fair words."
After she finished speaking, she turned back to Wei Yan with a smile and said, "Actually, we women are easy to coax. It just depends on whether you men are willing to put in the effort."
Wei Yan said: "You say this as if I have never coaxed you."
"You are coaxing me now because we have only been married for a few years. When I grow old in the future, you will be impatient to coax me." Shen Xiudao, "But I won't care about it. If you don't coax me,
I will raise a son who is obedient to me and let my son coax me when the time comes."
Wei Yan smiled and said, "You're talking in your sleep again."
Shen Xiu put the chosen jewelry on her head, looked in the mirror, turned around and said with a smile: "It's not just a dream. I had originally planned to have a baby after this year. But now this lotus
My aunt has interfered a lot, so it looks like we have to wait a little longer."
Wei Yan didn't speak, just glanced at her.
Shen Xiu simply walked over and said: "But don't worry, it won't take long for me to figure out Lianniang's purpose. After March next year, we will be happy..."
After Shen Xiu said this, she still felt embarrassed to continue. She coughed slightly and said: "Anyway, I will solve this matter as soon as possible."
There is the problem of Aunt Lian at home, and there are many things to deal with in the Nishang Embroidery Workshop.
As soon as Shen Xiu arrived at the embroidery workshop, a waiter came to announce: "Mrs. Qiao is here."
Mrs. Qiao had previously ordered a set of winter clothes at Nishang Embroidery Shop. Shen Xiu had promised her that if she was not satisfied with the embroidery, Nishang Embroidery Shop would not be so shameless as to take her order in the future.
Now that she knew Mrs. Qiao was here, Shen Xiu sent someone to invite Wen Xiu Niang to come over.
After taking the order from Mrs. Qiao, Wen Xiuniang worked hard these days and finally made a set of winter clothes.
Now Shen Xiu asked someone to invite her over, and Wen Xiu Niang brought this winter coat with her.
The winter clothes were placed in the bag. Wen Xiu Niang carefully opened it and took out a moon-white long coat embroidered with hibiscus flowers.
Hibiscus is the most commonly embroidered flower in Shu embroidery, and it is also the best test of Shu embroidery skills.
Shi Xiu Niang caught Mrs. Qiao's eyes because the hibiscus flowers she embroidered were both delicate and expressive.
Now Wen Xiu Niang has also embroidered hibiscus flowers on her clothes according to Mrs. Qiao's preference.
She didn't know whether Mrs. Qiao could appreciate her embroidery, and she couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Other embroiderers in the embroidery workshop also told her about Mrs. Qiao, saying that she was extremely picky about embroidery and only Shi embroiderer could meet her requirements.
And Wen Xiu Niang came to the embroidery workshop because she wanted to replace Shi Xiu Niang's position in the embroidery workshop.
If Mrs. Qiao is satisfied, that's fine, her position will be stable in the future. But if Mrs. Qiao is dissatisfied, Wen Xiu Niang doesn't dare to think about it anymore.
In her uneasiness, Mrs. Qiao finally finished looking at the embroidery on the clothes.
Shen Xiu stood by and asked for Wen Xiu Niang: "Mrs. Qiao, are you still satisfied with this embroidery work?"
Wen Xiuniang's heart tightened, and her eyes fell on Mrs. Qiao, looking expectant and uneasy.
