I will die early and cannon fodder. I will enjoy great blessings after marrying a sick man.

Taking out another folder, Shen Yanqing pointed to the names circled above and said: "Kyoto is now divided into four factions, one is the aristocratic faction, one is the rising star faction, and one is the neutral faction, which can also be called the wait-and-see faction. ”

"What's the other side?"

"This other faction is naturally the royalist faction."

After thinking about it, Song Manman pursed her lips and said, "Then we are the royalists!"

Hearing this, Shen Yanqing nodded and said with a smile: "Our dear baby is so smart, we are the royalists."

"It's hard to guess. Grandpa Hua is now in the highest position. According to our relationship, we must be royalists!" Song Manman glanced at Shen Yanqing angrily and snorted.

"Yes, our little boy is the smartest."

After saying that, Shen Yanqing stretched out his hand and scratched the tip of Song Manman's nose. He was silent for a moment and said, "Actually, even if the Ye family has a daughter, it is impossible for our two families to get married."

"Is it because of different factions?" After hearing Shen Yanqing's words, Song Manman reacted instantly.

"Well! The Ye family is the head of a rising faction with great ambitions. Our goals may be the same, so marriage is impossible no matter what."

Hearing Shen Yanqing's words, Song Manman's shocked pupils trembled slightly. He reached out and pulled Shen Yanqing's sleeves, and said with a slight tremor in his voice: "Shen Yanqing..."

Gently patting the back of Song Manman's hand, Shen Yanqing comforted him: "My dear, don't be afraid."

"Then...why did you want to cooperate with Ye Huaisheng in the first place?" Song Manman's head was a little dizzy, and Song Manman's mind was now filled with the figure of Sheng Jingmiao.

She couldn't imagine what she would do if one day she and Sheng Jingmiao were on opposite sides.

"My dear, no matter where we are, there are only eternal interests, and there are no eternal enemies. We just each get what we need." Shen Yanqing hugged Song Manman's shoulders to comfort her distressedly, and Shen Yanqing closed her eyes helplessly.

Now he just prays that Ye Huaisheng's ideas are different from those of the Ye family, so that there is still room for maneuver between them, otherwise they will have to be rivals.

Seeing that Song Manman's mood had calmed down, Shen Yanqing said softly: "Baby, you have to get used to these things early. Many such things may happen in the future."

"Why is life so complicated? It can't be simpler!" Song Manman complained, but in her heart she knew that what Shen Yanqing said was right.

No matter where Shen Yanqing goes in the future, as Shen Yanqing's wife, she will have to face many people of all kinds.

In fact, she wasn't the only one. Tan Wan started to deal with it early on, when her third brother was getting higher and higher, and Tao Shashao, like her, would face these things sooner or later.

Although Song Shi and Song Sinan did not join the army or politics, these cultures are actually very common in shopping malls, and Tang Yao and Tang Luo cannot escape them.

In their family, only the elder sister-in-law Xu Erruo is probably the only one who can live a more careless life. Her eldest brother is neither in the army nor in politics. He also knows nothing about shopping malls and will not get involved. At most, he will accept her parents' rural enterprises. Her sister-in-law doesn't need to socialize at all.

"I suddenly envy my sister-in-law."

Hearing Song Manman's sudden words, Shen Yanqing pursed her lips.

He also envied Song Geng, who didn't have so many worrying things. It seemed that besides his family, he never thought about too many other things in his life, and he lived a free and unrestrained life.

Xu Erruo and Song Geng, who were envied by Song Manman and Shen Yanqing, also had their own troubles at this moment.

Looking at the four bankbooks in his hand, Xu Erruo sighed deeply, touched his stomach, and said sadly: "Song Geng, what should I do? Our savings are not enough to support our four children."

"I'll figure it out. I'll find a job after you give birth." Song Geng touched Xu Erruo's belly and lowered his eyes slightly.

Sitting up straight, Xu Erruo counted the money in the passbook again. Compared with the previous time, it was not a penny more. Xu Erruo lay on the bed and closed his eyes helplessly.

Over the past few years, the couple has saved a lot of money. If they could only support their four children, there would be no problem at all.

But there are not only children in their lives, but also the elderly and relatives.

Opening his eyes, Xu Erruo clasped his fingers and murmured: "Not to mention my grandparents, they have to buy at least some clothes, food, and drinks every year. My parents also have to give me some filial piety money every year, and also give them some filial piety money. Every year during the Chinese New Year, I have to prepare red envelopes for the children...this item is all expenses.”

"Don't we have dividends from the slaughterhouse and clothing store?" Looking at Xu Erruo, Song Geng asked with a little confusion.

"Yes, but the money is hard to move. Shao Shao has always been in charge of the clothing store. We basically haven't contributed much, especially at the slaughterhouse. It was my little sister and the others who were responsible for the money. Yes, we didn’t get a penny, so why bother to spend it? We also have the money that everyone took when they helped our family. I’m looking for an opportunity to return this money to everyone!”

Song Geng did not expect that Xu Erruo had not spent the dividends from the slaughterhouse and clothing store in the past few years, and planned to pay back the money that his brothers had given him for help.

With his eyes red, Song Geng held Xu Erruo's hand and asked softly: "Daughter-in-law, then... you will only spend our wages in the past few years."

After saying that, Song Geng suddenly discovered that most of his wife's clothes and skin care products were given by her younger sisters-in-law and her younger sister, and few of them were bought by her herself.

"Yes, but our salary is enough. On weekdays, my little sister, Shao Shao and the others buy groceries. There are also a few brats in our family who wear and use Manman and Xiao Wan. We can’t spend much money on the rest.”

After saying that, Xu Erruo felt a sense of shame in his heart. Their family had taken too many advantages over the years, and it was difficult to repay them no matter what.

However, Xu Erruo still thought that he could repay a little bit, and the relationship between family members also needed to be maintained. When the relationship between the two parties was not equal, problems would inevitably arise.

She needs to adjust the relationship to an equal position while her mind is still relatively clear, otherwise she is afraid that in the future, she will become more and more accustomed to others paying for her.

"It's not necessary, we are all a family."

As soon as he finished speaking, Song Geng felt a knife eye shoot towards him from the side.

Xu Erruo pinched Song Geng's waist, snorted softly, and said: "We are a family, so we can't always take advantage of our younger brothers and sisters. Our younger brothers and younger sisters have already paid too much for our family, and we can't always take advantage of them." It’s not right to just ask for it from them.”
