After chatting for a long time again, Sheng Hong didn't see the other party saying anything important. Then he drank a full cup of tea and two packs of Yuqian Longjing tea leaves and left the Shen Mansion.
That's true. He came inexplicably and then left inexplicably. Anyway, Sheng Hong was confused.
After getting on the carriage again and returning to Sheng's house on Jiying Lane, Sheng Hong wanted to go to Xiaodie's yard. After spending many years together, Sheng Hong found that he really fell in love with Xiaodie.
But what Sheng Hong didn't know was that a special guest came to Wei Xiaoniang's courtyard and was whispering something to Wei Xiaoniang.
"Sister, what exactly do you think?
Your eldest wife, Wang Ruofu, divorced her brother-in-law Shanda a few years ago!
Why haven't you been appointed as the head wife of the Sheng family yet?" Aunt Wei looked at her sister Wei Xiaoniang with a look of hatred.
"This...sister, it's my own business.
Sister, please stop worrying so much!" Wei Xiaoniang said with a hint of helplessness and a wry smile.
"Sister, why is this your own business?
We are sisters who both prosper and suffer.
It can be said that the Sheng family is now at its peak.
Why don’t you care at all!”
"Hey! Some things are hard to explain clearly!
The master has his own ideas!
Why should we force it?"
"Hmph! Sister, you think clearly!
You have been away from Yangzhou for many years, and you don't know the prestige of the Sheng family in Yangzhou now.
In Yangzhou, you may not know who the magistrate of the state or county is, but you will definitely know the Sheng Hong of the Sheng family!"
"Eh? My sister, what you said is too exaggerated!"
"Sister, you might not believe me!
Scholars in Yangzhou almost worship their brother-in-law as a god!
Those scholars and government officials in the past were not willing to look at us farmers!
Now that we know the relationship between our Wei family and Sheng family, we will bow to each other when we see them!"
"Ah? Is the master so highly regarded by scholars?"
"So! Sister, sister is also good for you!
Sister, I have also heard that Yangzhou is also in the same situation in other state capitals in the Zhou Dynasty.
If you are supported by your brother-in-law as soon as possible, you can truly become the mistress of the Sheng family!
Maybe I can have a royal destiny in the future!"
...
As soon as I arrived at Xiaodie Courtyard, and before I had been intimate with Xiaodie for a long time, I saw Fang's mother running in in a hurry, "Master, the old lady wants you to go to Shou'an Hall!"
"What's wrong? What happened?" Sheng Hong was a little confused, because the old lady rarely took the initiative to call him to Shou'antang.
"Come back, sir, someone from the Wang family is here!"
"Wang family?"
Sheng Hong knew that the Wang family that Fang's mother was talking about was Wang Ruofu's natal family. It seemed like a night owl came into the house again and came for everything!
Sheng Hong came to Shou'an Hall with an impatient look on his face, and saw Mrs. Wang standing up with a smile, "Xian son-in-law, you are here!"
"Mrs. Wang, I have made peace with Wang Ruofu.
Your words of "virtuous son-in-law" are not suitable."
"Huh? How can a good son-in-law be so heartless?
Even if it’s not for the fact that you and Ruofu have been married for many years.
It also depends on whether Zaifu has given birth to children for you, so you care a little about the relationship between husband and wife, right?"
"Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest. When disaster strikes, they fly separately!"
There is nothing wrong with Wang Ruofu abandoning my Sheng family!
So it’s better for everyone to live in peace in the future!”
"What?
I really didn’t expect that Shanda people would be obsessed with high-ranking officials and generous salaries!
I have forgotten the bad wife I was!" The old lady of the Wang family looked at Sheng Hong with a sarcastic face.
"Haha, Mrs. Wang is here today.
Isn’t it just to make some sarcastic remarks about Sheng?”
"Hmph! Don't think that you can get carried away now that you have been promoted to Minister of Household Affairs!
You must know that all your fortune now rests on my granddaughter Sheng Hualan!
Now the Sheng family doesn’t even have a legitimate wife, and they are not afraid of being laughed at by everyone in Tokyo!”
"Haha, this is our Sheng family's private matter, so I don't need Mrs. Wang to worry about it!"
"You... I came here this time just to persuade Mr. Sheng to step back from the brink and welcome my Ruofu back to the Sheng family again!
Only when a formal eldest lady is in charge can the Sheng family be kept safe!
Otherwise, all the children of the Sheng family will be affected.
I hope Shanda people will take good care of themselves!”
"Haha, Mrs. Wang is right!
Queen Ruofu is indeed a good wife and mother.
It is also a great contribution to my prosperous family!"
"In that case, what are you waiting for?
Hurry up and welcome Ruofu back to the Sheng family!" Mrs. Wang looked at Sheng Hong in front of her with a face of joy, and then urged her urgently.
"Haha, it's a pity that Wang Ruofu has a natal family as poisonous as your Wang family.
For so many years, I have always regarded the Sheng family as the "nutrition" of your Wang family!"
"What's even more pity is that Wang Ruofu has no independent temper and has always been at the mercy of your Wang family!
They already have three children, yet they still choose to divorce Sheng because of something specious!"
“If God does evil, you can still violate it; if you do evil on your own, you will not live!
Seeing Mrs. Wang and her son walking away angrily, the old lady sighed helplessly, "Master, are you really not planning to welcome the eldest lady back?"
"Mother, my son can't stand someone who shares a different bed with him!
How much money did Wang Ruofu give to the Kang and Wang families behind our backs?
In the past, in Yangzhou, she also partnered with Kang Wang to lend money?
Is this something scandalous that our scholarly family should do?"
"The Wang family has always regarded our Sheng family as their "cash cow."
Lying on our Sheng family and sucking blood!"
"I used to turn a blind eye to Wang Ruofu's love for the Sheng family!
Unexpectedly, with our patience.
The Wang family is pressing harder and harder and starting to interfere in the private affairs of our Sheng family!"
“Mom, my son actually thinks it’s pretty good now!
The children have grown up and are no longer the little children who could not live without their mothers.
Slowly you will have your own family and career!
There’s no need to force yourself to endure it anymore!”
"Hey! It's up to you!
Anyway, just have your own opinion in your heart!" The old lady agreed with Sheng Hong's sighs and complaints, because the eldest lady Wang Ruofu and the Wang family were indeed very excessive.
In the original drama, the eldest lady Wang Ruofu was always suppressed by Lin Jiaoshuang in the early stage. She seemed like a "little pitiful" and was always felt sorry for by the audience.
However, in the later period, without the restraint of Lin Zongshuang, the eldest wife Wang Ruofu completely let herself go. She was no longer satisfied with secretly lending money and funding the Kang and Wang families, but instead put it on the bright side with great fanfare.
In addition, the eldest wife, Wang Ruofu, has no independent opinions and has been manipulated by the Kang Wang family and the old lady of the Wang family. In the end, she did a stupid thing of poisoning her mother-in-law.
If Wang Ruofu, the eldest wife, could always ensure that everything was safe and sound, and occasionally provide some preferential treatment and support to the Wang family, Sheng Hong would understand.
But she should never have chosen to go with Sheng Hong and abandon the Sheng family when Sheng Hong and the Sheng family were targeted by King Yan and King Yong.
The Wang family is a big burden, and Sheng Hong can only dream of getting rid of them completely.
As for the former eldest wives Wang Ruofu, Sheng Changbai and Sheng Hualan, they are all very promising and will definitely not treat their mothers badly.
