Just as Xu Wenzhao finished speaking, he heard a clear scolding sound coming from not far away.
"Damn A-Zhao, stinky A-Zhao, you are lazy again!"
Xu Wenzhao and Shen Qingyi turned their heads together and saw Shen Qingling approaching in anger.
When Xu Wenzhao saw her, he immediately panicked and hurriedly stood back on the bank of the fountain, holding the book in his hand carelessly on his head.
However, Shen Qingling did not come alone. She was also followed by her biological mother, Aunt Zhou.
Aunt Zhou was dressed very plainly today. She had removed all her makeup and hairpins and tied her hair with only a plain hair tie. Her eye circles were extremely red and swollen, as if she had just cried.
Seeing this, Shen Qingyi forgot about Shen Qingling and she couldn't help but wonder: "What's going on? Why is my aunt dressed so plainly? She looks like she has lost her soul. What would she look like if her mother saw her?
?”
Seeing that it was Shen Qingyi, the legitimate daughter, Aunt Zhou naturally did not dare to neglect, so she replied: "It is indeed rude to dress up today, but the girl knows that this is not my intention. To be honest, Miss Three, I got news from outside the house today.
My brother and sister-in-law accidentally had an accident while working outside and were killed by a beam, leaving only my little niece, Mengfu Xin, alone.
"My Zhou family is poor, and Mengfu was pushed around by others. When those relatives saw my brother and sister-in-law's family background, they all turned against me, and no one was willing to take her in to raise her.
When Shen Qingyi heard this, she understood and said, "But what's there to cry about? It's just your niece Mengfu's business, so you don't need to disturb grandma for the time being."
Aunt Zhou couldn't help but be shocked when she heard this, and said: "This... Mengfu comes from a humble background, how can I dare to shamelessly ask Madam to let Mengfu come and live in the house?"
Unexpectedly, before he could finally relax, Shen Qingyi's next words came out.
"Sister, please speak for him!" Shen Qingling threw away Shen Qingyi's arm angrily and said angrily, with her hands on her hips, "He is the one I am torturing! There is not a word of truth in this guy's mouth, I will never pay attention to him again, huh!"
"
She rolled her eyes and said immediately: "In this case, you use my waist card to go to the accounting office to get fifty taels of silver, and then use your identity as aunt to ask around. Don't mention the money. If anyone is willing to give Meng Fu
After taking it back, you give him the fifty taels of silver, and immediately send out the rest of the people who are flattering others and don't give any face to anyone.
"Poor Mengfu, she is only a teenager, but she has become a lonely person. She is looking at the age when she wants to marry her. She is annoying to others. She is not afraid of the three girls' jokes. Our Zhou family is already in decline. With me,
The only people who are close to me are my brother and sister-in-law. Over the past few years, my family has relied on my monthly income from the house to support us, but I never thought that Mengfu would suffer such a disaster.
All the money that went out was fed to the dogs!"
"Stop talking to me."
"Hey, don't go!"
Both of them froze when they heard this, and raised their legs to run away. However, Shen Qingyi, who had been well prepared, grabbed the collar of his clothes from left to right and held them in his hands. Even trying to run became a luxury.
Shen Qingyi's unmistakable shout made both of them stop in their tracks.
As she said that, she looked at the maid behind Aunt Zhou and said, "Why don't you do what I tell you?"
"Qingling, what do you think is the best way for my sister to punish you master and servant?"
Shen Qingyi comforted her again: "Don't be too sad. My condolences. At least, your brother and sister-in-law have left Miss Mengfu behind. When she comes, we will take good care of her. Without those worm-like relatives, naturally,
The advantages outweigh the disadvantages, so why are you worrying about this? Go quickly, if it's too late, Meng Fu may not be able to bear it."
"Sister, my sister doesn't dare to do it anymore, why don't you show your dignity and let her go?"
Shen Qingyi said: "What's inappropriate? After all, you are a serious young lady, so there is no reason to let others bully you! Besides, the Shen family has a great cause, and you gave birth to Qingling again, but you just have an extra mouth to eat.
There is no reason for your mother-in-law’s family to be upset about this matter.”
Shen Qingling and Xu Wenzhao both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"I remember that the Imperial Academy will have a holiday tomorrow, and Liu Nian happens to be missing a reading companion. Since you two are so idle, you can accompany Liu Nian to read and write tomorrow, so as to live up to this midsummer scene."
Shen Qingyi stretched out his hand and pinched the tip of her nose, and said: "By the way, why do you let Azhao stand here? His face is painted as white as if he has seen a ghost. Get him down quickly. What are you doing torturing him?"
The maid hurriedly responded and then hurried away.
Shen Qingling swallowed in fear.
Shen Qingyi nodded seriously: "That's true, after all, you have helped my sister so much, and it's too late for my sister to thank you, so how can I be willing to punish you?"
When he saw that Shen Qingling was really going to leave, Xu Wenzhao immediately became anxious. Not caring that he was still being punished, he jumped out of the fountain and chased after Shen Qingling.
Aunt Zhou was already thinking about Meng Fu, so after hearing this, she did not dare to delay any longer.
"Everyone, stop!"
After saying that, he angrily wanted to go back to his room.
"!"
She crossed her arms and walked slowly in front of the two of them, saying: "I said, you two are running very fast. Have you forgotten that a few days ago, you two were so bold that you almost caused a huge disaster when you broke into Liu's house at night?
It seems like I haven’t had a good chat with you about this matter.”
"If no one is willing to raise her, you immediately give the fifty taels of silver to Meng Fu in front of everyone, then go back to your mother, and bring Meng Fu into the house in your name. Who dares to say anything at this time?
If you want to raise Meng Fu, you immediately order your servants to beat him out, and then make the matter clear in front of the neighbors. When everyone sees the real money you have given, they will stop talking behind people's backs and clinging to people.
face."
Shen Qingyi's eyebrows were gentle, and her words were soft and soft, but the words "You two are destined to die today" were written all over the corners of her eyebrows.
She was hateful and sad, but she couldn't help but cursed a few words with her eyes red. She was also afraid of being rude in front of Shen Qingyi, so she quickly kept silent, not daring to say any more words.
After Aunt Zhou left, Shen Qingling smiled and said: "If I had known that my third sister was extremely intelligent, courageous and knowledgeable, let alone Sister Mengfu, even the eldest brother and sister who had been imprisoned would have been able to rescue him. What's more,
Let alone the other side."
No matter how Shen Qingling and Xu Wenzhao lamented, Shen Qingyi turned a deaf ear and called two boys to escort them away.
Although the shuttlecock was not kicked successfully, Shen Qingling and Xu Wenzhao were punished. Shen Qingyi couldn't help but feel in a good mood, so she went back to her room humming a song.
When she was playing the strings in the room and chatting to entertain herself, Liu Ying suddenly opened the door in surprise, stopped in front of Shen Qingyi and said, "It's just as the girl expected! Someone is coming from the palace.
, the father-in-law who delivered the decree is now in the front hall, saying that you and the second son have accomplished great achievements, and the Holy Spirit will hold a banquet in seven days to entertain you!"
I'm late. I'm late. Liu Liu's sleep is very bad. I've been really sleepy these two days. I fell asleep before 8 o'clock last night. I'll add an extra chapter to compensate for this. Woo woo woo woo.
