Shen Jia cooked three dishes with his own hands. During the meal, he finally saw the third uncle and the others who were intact, but he didn't know how Manager Du taught them to be better-behaved than the other, and he didn't dare to raise his head.

After the banquet, Father Shen called them into his study, and he didn't know what he said to them. After that, they didn't mention anything about the division of clans, nor did they ask for benefits, and the two sides got along again. It has broken the previous pattern of neither salty nor bland but constant chopping.

Shen Jia stayed in Shen's residence that night, while Zhao Zhang's uncle and nephew returned to the palace. Not long after, a batch of rewards came down from the palace. It was clearly for Shen Jia, but Shen Jia knew that these things were for the Shen clan. People's meeting ceremony.

When Shen Jia sent these things to the guest house, everyone in the Shen family was moved and wept bitterly. How could they have thought that they would still have a chance to be rewarded by the emperor in this life?After this incident, they no longer dared to raise any opinions on Shen Jia.

Shen's father was also satisfied with this, which showed that Zhao Zhang really regarded the Shen family as his own. He called Shen Jia into the study and said to him: "I have discussed with your mother, and I will talk to your third uncle in a few days. They went back to Boryeong together."

Shen Jia was greatly surprised, "Father, why did you make this decision?"

"Look, you're about to go south to take up your post. Originally, we wanted to go with you, but thinking about your third sister and two children, it's inconvenient for such a large family to travel, but it's not interesting to stay in Chang'an, and we may not be here for a long time. I haven’t been back, and I miss my family and friends very much.”

Shen Jia didn't object either, but he was worried about their safety. Now he has made many enemies in the court. In Chang'an, Zhao Zhang is in town, and no one dares to provoke people from Shen's residence, but if he returns to Baoning residence, then It's too late.

But he can't keep them trapped here forever, it's best to take this opportunity to return home.

"Okay, give me a few days and I'll arrange it."

"That's natural. It will take several days to pack up. Yan Wan will also go back with us. What do you mean by your mother and me? After we go back, we will meet her for a marriage. If she is satisfied, you can write a letter of divorce." Book back and let her live her own life."

Shen Jia felt that Liu Yanwan would not stay in Boryeong, her heart was bigger and she yearned for freedom more, but that might not be the case, what if fate came?

"Okay, don't wait for later, I'll write and leave the book right now, just don't announce it to the public."

In the next few days, the Shen residence became busy. This time the whole family returned to Sichuan, and they would not return to Chang'an for several years, so there were a lot of things to take away.

Shen Peng took the opportunity to talk to Shen's mother: "Mother, we are all leaving, what will the elder sister and the second sister do?"

Why doesn't Shen's mother miss the other two daughters, but she can't take the other two back, so how can the Yang family and the Jia family agree?

"Your eldest brother-in-law's business is getting bigger and bigger, and he has already gained a firm foothold in Chang'an. Your eldest sister has a stable temper and will definitely live a good life. Your second brother-in-law failed this year again. He must continue to study hard. In Chang'an, it is better than Go back and be strong, with your second sister's temperament, let alone in Chang'an, she can live comfortably even in the ends of the earth, so you don't need to worry about them."

Shen Peng thought about it too, and sighed: "In the end, I'm the only one who can't live a life."

"What are you thinking? When you go back, you will look like you. You are still young. It is not a bad thing to find a suitable partner to live with. You don't have to worry about the two children. They are the children of the Shen family, and they will inherit the family business in the future. , can’t suffer them.”

Shen Peng shook his head, "No need, I've given up on men, there's nothing wrong with living a carefree life like this, look at sister Yan Wan, how comfortable she is."

Shen's mother never thought that women could still celebrate their birthdays like this before. In the inherent concept, women must marry, how can they live without men?But after going through so many things, she also looked away. She even accepted that her son was with a man, so why would she care about her daughter being single?

What's more, there are two children at home, so I don't worry about no one to take care of her when she gets old.

"You decide for yourself. Have you packed everything? Jiajia said that she will find a master to bring back to enlighten brother Yu, and remember to prepare a salute for the master."

"Don't worry, it's all done." Shen Peng agreed happily.

Before leaving, Shen's residence held a small banquet, invited relatives and friends, it was considered as a farewell banquet.

The eldest sister, Shen Jing, had just received the good news that she was two months pregnant. She heard that her family was leaving Chang'an, and she hugged her husband and wept bitterly. At first, she encouraged her husband to come here to be with her family, but she didn't expect them to stay here , but the family is leaving.

Shen Ling became much calmer. Ever since Shen Jia decided to let her out, she had thought that there would be such a day. Although she was reluctant, she did not show it and comforted Shen Jing, "Sister, you still have me, we Sisters never leave or leave."

Shen Jing scolded with a smile: "Don't lie to me, my brother-in-law is not yet in high school, and when he has a future in the future, he will definitely be released to become an official. At that time, you will still chase after him, leaving me alone. "

Kang Yun leaned over and said, "Big sister, you can't forget me, cousins ​​are sisters too, I don't mind if second cousin leaves, and we won't be lonely when we come and go often."

Kang Yun has a big belly and is seven or eight months pregnant. Her husband Shi Ye will most likely never leave Beijing in his life, and she will definitely settle in Chang'an City.

The sisters chatted and laughed and quickly dispelled the sorrow of parting. No matter what, everyone's life must go on. After coming to Chang'an, their life will be better and better. Even if they rely on themselves in the future, they should not regret it. .

After the Shen family left, the Shen residence was completely quiet, and the passers-by who came and went found that the Shen residence seemed to be vacant.

"It shouldn't be. Isn't Mr. Shen still in Chang'an? Why have you never seen his carriage come in and out?"

"Speaking of which, I have rarely seen Mr. Shen's carriage not long ago. I set up a stall at the street corner to sell groceries. I used to see Mr. Shen's carriage every day. He even patronized my business. He is very nice. I haven’t even seen anyone else lately.”

This kind of change was first discovered by passers-by and neighbors who came and went frequently. Naturally, the news could not be concealed. Shen Jia went to court every day, but did not live in Shen's residence. This news is not big news, but people with a heart always Will want to investigate.

Shen Jia's whereabouts are not difficult to find out, after all, he is escorted by a carriage when he goes in and out, the reason why Yiyuan has not been found for a long time is because of its remote location, and he always went back from the north of the city.

When everyone found out that his new home was actually next to the palace, they were not a little shocked.

"Yiyuan? What is that place? Why does Shen Jia live there?"

"Speaking of which, the location is not bad. It's very close to the imperial city. No wonder Mr. Shen will rebuild the north of the city. In this way, his house will become a peerless place."

"So it turns out that he is from the household department. Mr. Shen is very shrewd."

"No, I heard that Mr. Shen has been staying here for a while. Didn't Mrs. Shen and the others leave Beijing at that time? Why did he move out?" This was the question that everyone was puzzled by.

The ministers of the imperial court don't have many other houses, and they sometimes live in them occasionally, but I have never seen the head of the family who moved from the ancestral house to live outside, so it's no wonder that people have different opinions after the news spread.

Someone who had a good relationship with Shen Jia directly asked the master, Shen Jia had no choice but to explain: "I am too lazy, in order to sleep for an extra quarter of an hour, I want to live closer to the palace, and the place is big and spacious. It's quiet and the land is not expensive, otherwise I wouldn't be able to afford it."

This explanation sounds quite normal, after all, which official would not want to live near the imperial city?It's not only a time saver, but also a status symbol, but no one has thought of going to the other side of the inland river before.

With Shen Jia taking the lead, in just a few days, many people went to buy land near Yiyuan, even if the price had doubled, they would buy it without hesitation.

It's just that they didn't know that the nearby wasteland was basically bought by Shen Jia, and they sold it for a fortune.

After dinner, Shen Jia was looking at the account book and counting the recent income, the corners of her mouth could hardly be closed.

Zhao Zhang leaned aside to read a book, and seeing his face full of money, he joked, "I don't have any good things in my private treasury, why are you drooling over this little money?"

Shen Jia rubbed the corner of her mouth, and found that she was cheated, she was not angry, and said with a smile: "This is the money I earn from serious investment, it's different, but seriously, you paid for the capital, and you should share half of it. "He really divided the number into two, and put half of it into Zhao Zhang's private treasury.

Zhao Zhang refused and said, "No need, why would I want the money you earned?"

Shen Jia showed him the ledger, "Are you sure you don't want it?"

Zhao Zhang casually glanced at the numbers above, raised his eyebrows, and asked with a little surprise, "So many?" I don't remember the capital, but I didn't expect to have an income of 10,000+ taels.

"anything else?"

Zhao Zhang coughed and pushed the ledger away, "No!"

Shen Jia kept the ledger. He was planning to take the money to Guangdong and Guangxi. The finances of that place were hard to describe. Before it developed, there must be a large amount of capital investment. No matter what year and month, it happens that this money can be used as an early investment.

After Zhao Zhang heard what he said, he frowned and asked, "This is your own money, why use it for public use? You can ask the Ministry of Households for the money that should be used by the local government. At worst, I will give you special approval, and I won't hold you back." Fold."

Shen Jia leaned over and said cheerfully: "Even the emperor's private treasury is mine. I am not short of money. Besides, the state treasury and private treasury are not all yours. It is much easier and more convenient to get the money from here than from the state treasury." Now, and I spend my own money, but no one dares not to listen to me, kill two birds with one stone."

"You are so generous!"

"It doesn't count. When the economy develops over there, I will double the income and get it back. This is also an investment and will not lose money."

Zhao Zhang hugged him and joked, "Then if I add another 10 taels, how about investing with you? The rest of my life depends entirely on you, madam!"

Shen Jia punched him backhand, "I'm irresponsible for the loss."

"How can I do that? If you lose money, you can support me with your own salary."

Shen Jia thought for a while, then nodded: "That's fine, at worst, let's eat steamed buns with pickles together."
