If he does not go against Mr. Yan Ge, even if he is not in harmony with others, Mr. Yan Ge will not touch him for the time being, and he will not dare to touch him.
So he was not afraid at all. Besides, he had nothing to worry about after sending all his children away.
Thinking of this, he added: "Minglou won't be an official anymore anyway. You can take him away and hire a teacher to teach him."
If Shen Minglou leaves, Shen Mingfu will naturally follow her sister. Then Shen Mingzhu and Shen Mingtang will have the final say on the marriage issue.
Shen Can seemed to be explaining the funeral arrangements. Shen Mingzhu felt a little heavy in her heart and immediately changed the subject, "Father is going to have a banquet. The concubine is waiting for you to speak. And...grandma and her family are here too."
Shen Can had heard about Old Mrs. Pei coming to Shen's house, but she hadn't had a chance to see her before. Now she froze when she heard about it.
Shen Can suddenly remembered the dignified and elegant lady from back then. She and Pei Yan both came from scholarly families, and so they had very good cultivation and temperament, which the nouveau riche could not compare to.
Even people who have been in office for three or five generations do not have their magnanimity.
The original Pei family was a Qingliu family that was envied by everyone in the capital.
But since Ruolan...
Shen Can's heart ached, it was he who had harmed Ruolan, it was he who had harmed the Pei family.
He clenched his fists in his sleeves and said hesitantly: "I'm just here to deliver a message to you. It's time to go back to the palace to recover."
He was still a little afraid to see Mrs. Pei. Back then, he asked people to inquire about the Pei family, but they disappeared overnight. The few remaining servants were cold and full of resentment towards him and did not want to be with him at all. Talking, but in the end there is no news at all.
Meeting suddenly now, he was not ready to say what to say, what to do, or how to explain what happened back then.
If Mrs. Pei questions him, how should he respond?
He was so panicked that he almost turned around and ran away.
Shen Mingtang said: "Father, it's been so many years, and it's impossible for grandma to blame you. But if you don't meet me, you will never get over this hurdle."
Step over?
Shen Can was a little confused. He had never stepped forward, nor did he want to. He had spent these years in Ruolan's memories. It was a pity that she hated him and always refused to fall asleep.
As I get older, I shouldn’t say these things anymore, but I can’t forget that heart.
However, Shen Can is somewhat responsible after all, and he is not a dull person. He immediately had an idea and said: "That's fine."
He followed Xiao Xian and his children to the backyard. Although there were differences between men and women, Concubine Xie was upright, so she was not afraid of anything. No one put up a screen, and everyone met like that.
When Shen Can passed by, Mrs. Pei was talking to Aunt He. Shen Mingfu looked so cute.
It's just that she didn't directly say that she was worried about the prince.
When Shen Can came over, everyone became quiet and stood up to greet him.
Concubine Xie smiled and said, "My dear brother-in-law is here."
Old Mrs. Pei heard that her brother-in-law was still thinking about it, and then her heart slowly became cold, and then her face darkened. She could not say a word, and her body seemed to be stiff, and she could not move her body freely. Turned around.
So when Shen Can saw this situation, he thought that Mrs. Pei resented him and didn't want to pay attention to him.
