The second bedroom of the Shen family, Shen Xian's study.

"Father, did you see how affectionate the old lady is with her cousin today? She seems to have forgotten that her grandfather was killed by her cousin three years ago." Shen Shilian angrily said as soon as he entered the house after his father .

Shen Xian went to the red sandalwood desk and sat down, with a gloomy face, he said: "It's no wonder that the old lady looked at her highly, for the past three years in Suzhou, she didn't know how to cling to Wang Yichen, the prefect of Suzhou, and Lu, the eunuch of Suzhou weaving. Lin, she didn't use the Shen family's money to open a silk and satin shop and a silk factory weaving workshop in Suzhou, and made a lot of money. Speaking of which, we really underestimated her."

Shen Shilian was very disdainful after hearing this and said: "What kind of means can she have as a divorced woman, it is nothing more than relying on her beauty to climb up to the Wang Zhifu, and the Wang Zhifu helped her get in touch with Lu Lin."

It's no wonder that Shen Xian and Shen Shilian's father and son don't know how Shen Wan got into the relationship between Wang Zhifu and Lu Lin.

At the beginning, when Shen Wan helped Wang Zhifu's wife, Hu Shi, to treat her heart disease, she asked Wang Zhifu and others not to disclose this matter, so only Wang Zhifu and Huo Zhongkai knew about her treatment of Hu's illness.And they all agreed that Shen Wan would keep this matter secret.

So outsiders only know that Shen Wan has friendship with Wang Zhifu, but they don't know how this friendship came about, let alone that Shen Wan even hooked up with Jinling weaving eunuch Hu Quan.

Shen Wan did not tell her parents about this matter, and none of the Shen family knew the inside story.

Shen Shilian made such a guess.

But unlike his son's disdain for Shen Wan's use of beauty to seduce Wang Zhifu, Shen Xian felt that if this was the case, then Shen Wan should not be underestimated.

After all, throughout the ages, women have used beauty to gain power and wealth. In the eyes of most people, it is considered the right way.

Otherwise, there would not be women like Diao Chan and Yang Yuhuan who have left their names in history, let alone those empresses in the palace and concubines in the mansions of high officials and dignitaries. Beauty is a sharp weapon in the hands of women.

A woman who knows how to use the weapon of beauty is a formidable opponent.

He told this to his son Shen Shilian, telling him not to underestimate Shen Wan.

After Shen Shilian heard his father's words, he put away his contemptuous look, and turned serious.

He asked his father: "Father, if she is as powerful as you said, she will definitely help Shisi succeed the patriarch of the Shen clan. In that case, wouldn't what you said in front of the old lady be in vain? We have prepared so much For a long time, wouldn't it be a waste of time to fetch water from the bamboo basket?"

Shen Xian was silent, and after a while he said: "If Shisi has no way to succeed as the patriarch of the Shen clan, he has to move two big rocks or break a small one..."

Shen Shilian understood this metaphor as soon as he heard it, but he was still a little startled.

Of course, the two big stones refer to his uncle and cousin, and the small stone refers to his cousin Shisi.

Shen Xian then raised his head to look at Shen Shilian, asking him to talk about whether it is better to move the big rock or break the small one.

Shen Shilian thought for a while, then looked at his father and said, "Big rocks are not easy to move, but small ones are easier to break. However, if Dad wants to replace uncle, he must move the big rocks first."

Shen Xian waved his hand: "I'm not a man in the world of mortals. I don't want to take care of the Shen family's mundane affairs at this age. Besides, even if you move the biggest stone, Shi Si will still have his sister to help, and the old lady will still call Shi Si. Si succeeded as the head of the Shen family. Only when the small stones are broken, the position of the head of the Shen family will fall firmly into the hands of our father and son. small stone."

Shen Shilian asked: "What does the big rock that Dad mentioned mean exactly?"

Shen Xian: "Of course it refers to your cousin. My father wants to send someone to Suzhou to find out her details. What has she done in Suzhou in the past three years and who has she dealt with? Maybe we can catch her Handle. If we really have a handle, then, hmph! She can't help Shisi when she can't take care of herself?"

Shen Shilian nodded, thinking that what his father said was reasonable, but he still had no idea how to smash the small stone.

Therefore, he asked his father what to do so that he could smash small stones without being caught.

Shen Xian murmured: "...accidents, there are so many accidents in this world, the horse was startled, the boat leaked... this matter must be completed before August...we can't wait for him to get married and have children..."

Shen Shilian immediately said that this time he had to arrange people to do it well, and he promised that this time it would be a success.

"Alright, if you do it, our father and son will advance and retreat. You can make arrangements, but everything must be reported to me."

"Yes, Dad."

The father and son had made a plan, so Shen Shilian withdrew from his father's study to start making arrangements.

-

Jing Lan hugged Xiao Junpei and followed Shen Wan into the embroidery building, holding her chubby hand while talking to her, very intimate.

Shen Wan went to sit down in the banquet room of Xici Room, Xia Mama and the others walked in, and Shen Wan assigned the specific errands that she should do to the people who served her after she came back.

Except for Xia's mother who was still in charge, the people serving in Shen Wan's room became Jing Lan, Ji Jiao and Bai Ju.

An Chun and An Dong are in charge of entertaining guests outside, cleaning the warehouse, etc.

Shen Wan said that An Chun and An Dong will give them a life contract in at least two years and let them go home to marry, so they are not asked to come to serve.

Although An Chun and An Dong were slightly disappointed with Shen Wan's arrangement, they also knew that this arrangement was reasonable.

Firstly, it was because they were really old, and within a year or two they would leave Shen Wan and go back to marry and have children, and they could only serve Shen Wan for a while.

Secondly, Jing Lan, and the two maids Ji Jiao and Bai Ju who came back with the master are relatively young, and they can serve the master for four or five years, which is longer than them.

In the end, Jing Lan and the others have been serving their master in Suzhou for the past three years, and they have already developed feelings for them. The relationship between the master and them is very close.They also heard that the master made his fortune in Suzhou thanks to the help of Jing Lan and others.

Back at Shen's house in Jinling, the master would of course replace An Chun and An Dong, who were originally personal servants, with Jing Lan and the others.

After all, An Chun and An Dongsuan had no choice but to follow Shen Wan's arrangement.

After arranging the affairs of the maids and women in front of her, Shen Wan asked them to retreat, leaving only Mama Xia and Jing Lan in the room.

Mother Xia sat on an embroidered pier in front of Shen Wan, happily chatting with Shen Wan.

After two or three years of separation, Mother Xia, as Shen Wan's wet nurse, was naturally very happy to see Shen Wan return to the Shen family.She told Shen Wan that although the old lady asked Shen Wan's second uncle to take all of Shen Wan's dowry, the silver dowry and other things were put into the warehouse, and the old lady took care of the keys herself, so no one could touch them.As for the shops and weaving workshops that Shen Wan married as a dowry, her man is still in charge of them, and all the achievements of the past few years have been handed over to the old lady, and the old lady keeps accounts.

"It can be seen that the old lady wants to return all these dowry to you." Mother Xia said with a wry smile.

To be honest, Shen Wan is not so concerned about the Shen family's dowry now, because she is not short of money now, and the dowry that the old lady told her second uncle to confiscate, she lives pretty well whether she wants it or not.

However, as the daughter of the Shen family, Shen Wan believes that she has the right to share the wealth of the Shen family just like other descendants of the Shen family.

It is impossible that because she has set up a considerable family business in Suzhou, she should not get what she deserves.

At this moment, I heard Mother Xia say how the old lady took care of the dowry that was collected, and knowing that the dowry that originally belonged to me would be returned in full, I was naturally in a happy mood.

Shen Wan expressed her gratitude to Xia's mother and her man for helping her wholeheartedly, and said that there would be a great reward when she got back the dowry.

Xia's mother hurriedly said what kind of reward, what she did with her man was her duty.

She only hoped that after Shen Wan came back, she would soon be able to find the person she liked again, to have a good marriage and a good destination.

Shen Wan said: "Mom doesn't need to mention this matter anymore. Back then I told the old lady that if Jun Pei stays in the Shen family, I will never marry again in this life."

As she said this, she went to see Jing Lan who was sitting on a chair not far away, holding Jun Pei on her lap, playing with Jun Pei.

Xiao Junpei seemed to like Jing Lan very much, and she giggled at the games Jing Lan played with her. Jing Lan also smiled with crooked eyebrows, and didn't listen to what she said to Xia's mother at all.

Seeing this scene, Shen Wan felt that it was sweeter than eating honey.

Once, before returning to Shen's house in Jinling, she and Jing Lan were worried that Jun Pei would not get close to them.

After all, Jun Pei was brought back to Jinling by Shen Wan's mother just after the full moon, and they hadn't been in front of Jun Pei for more than two years. When they saw Jun Pei, it was only natural for Jun Pei to treat them as strangers.

But when she returned to Shen's house, Jun Pei saw that her mother-in-law was very well-behaved, which already made Shen Wan overjoyed.Unexpectedly, Jun Pei and Jing Lan also had a good time and were very intimate, which was even more surprising.

She sighed in her heart, Jun Pei's closeness to Jing Lan was truly worth Jing Lan's hard work.

Mother Xia saw Shen Wan mentioning that she was not married, not only did she not hesitate at all, but she also smiled and looked at the maid An Lan who was playing with Jun Pei, she was surprised for no reason, and always felt a little strange to say it.

Shen Wan is only in her early twenties, and a woman of her age reunited, shouldn't it be because she hopes to have another good marriage, so that the rest of her life will be stable and happy?

But why is she smiling, she doesn't care.

Could it be that she really has a daughter who has everything and would rather guard her daughter for the rest of her life?

But Jun Pei is going to get married when she grows up, so what will she do for the rest of her life?

As Shen Wan's wet nurse, Xia's mother regards her as her own daughter, how can she see such a daughter living a lonely and desolate life for the rest of her life, she thinks that Shen Wan said that for Jun Pei to stay in the Shen family, now Unlike in the past, there is no need to abide by what was said before.

Xia's mother thought to herself, it seems that she has to go to her wife to talk about Wan'er's lifelong events, and she can't just watch her grandchildren waste their youthful years...
