He was entangled with court affairs and had to consider Mingzhu's marriage, so he had no time to think about anything else.
"Oh, let me think about it." Shen Can wanted to take a look, but she didn't want to give up this opportunity to get close to her daughter. After all, after all these years, Shen Mingzhu took the initiative to talk to him for the first time today.
What the daughter means is: No matter whether I have to keep concubines in the future, I don’t need to keep a brothel girl!
Shen Can found it funny. He was a scholar. The Qin Dynasty clearly stipulated that officials were not allowed to have sex with prostitutes. Although it was in name only now, for him, the prime minister, he still had to abide by it. After all, high-ranking people had to be decent.
Shen Can was thinking this, and just about to speak, Shen Mingzhu spoke, and she said calmly: "Master, you are so busy, how can you have time to study? Besides, the third brother's homework cannot be delayed. Why not let the second brother help in the future? Let third brother keep an eye on it."
Mrs. Liu and Shen Can spoke at the same time, but one said no, and the other said yes.
Mrs. Liu's eyes were on fire and her face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. How could this Shen Mingzhu be so vicious and exploit every possible opportunity to snatch her son away and drive a wedge between mother and son? It was simply unreasonable!
Shen Mingzhu didn't care about her. The angrier she was, the happier Shen Mingzhu was.
"Madam, you are a woman after all. Although you are literate, you cannot check your homework for your husband. In my opinion, let the second brother be responsible. Moreover, the madam has to take care of the house on weekdays, and the third sister has to learn piano skills. If you don’t have time to take care of the third brother, it’s good to just let the third brother follow the second brother.”
Shen Can agreed very much. Her daughter solved a problem for herself.
"Mingzhu, your suggestion is very good. Mingtang, please spend more time in the future and give good guidance to your third brother."
Shen Mingtang glanced at Mrs. Liu and said, "That's natural. Don't worry, sir."
After saying that, he stood up and said, "It's getting late, so my son will leave first."
He resigned, and together with Shen Mingzhu, the brother and sister went to Shen Mingtang's study to talk.
Mrs. Liu and Shen Can were left in the study over there.
Shen Can glanced at her and saw that she still didn't leave, so he asked in surprise: "Do you have anything else?"
"Huh? I still have something to do? Master, what is our relationship? We are not strangers, we are husband and wife. Isn't it so late that the wife can't go back to her husband to rest?" Mrs. Liu squeezed her fingers and cracked.
Shen Can snorted, "I'm going to see Aunt He. She's having a hard time being pregnant and her body is delicate. Please give her more supplements."
Mrs. Liu hated her toothache so much that she cursed in her heart. She was not afraid of overdosing it. Who has never been pregnant? Why is she so delicate?
"The master is too worried. Did Aunt He say that she has no supplements to take? The old lady and I sent them out every now and then. Has she finished them all?"
People in the house were in panic because of Aunt Zhao's poisoning of the body-building soup. Who dared to give food to others easily? Soon Aunt He became pregnant again, and Mrs. Liu became suspicious. Someone had just fallen pregnant. She got pregnant again not long after the baby was born? She had to wait at least three to five months.
But Aunt He is only less than two months old.
If I think about it carefully, I'm afraid I'll be pregnant again in just over a month. How is that possible?
She suddenly had a bold idea. Could it be that Aunt He didn't give up her child before?
