In the study, Sheng Hong and Sheng Changbai and his son sat and stood in silence for a long time.
Sheng Hong finally couldn't help but asked: "Bai'er, based on your understanding of Wei Chen, is he pretending to intimidate, or does he really dare to act like this?"
Sheng Changbai thought seriously for a while and said in a deep voice: "Xingyun's parents died when he was young, and he cared about family ties the most. Since he recognized Xiaoniang Wei as his aunt, he regarded himself as a family member, so naturally he wanted to stand up for Xiaoniang Wei and her son."
"My mother-in-law? She has already released the fifth server, why should he act as her mother-in-law?"
Sheng Hong had a headache.
Wang Ruofu also has a natal family, and Wang Ruofu's natal Wang family is more powerful and dignified than Wei Chen, but Sheng Hong can still spoil his concubine and destroy his wife. Why?
Because the Wang family has a great business, but they also have many worries. Even if Wang Ruofu is bullied, the Wang family will only criticize a few words, and it is impossible to really break up with the Sheng family, otherwise the Wang family will not be in trouble.
On the other hand, Wei Chen was born in a peasant family, was young, had no family ties, but was still very famous among the scholars in the south of the Yangtze River. If he really wanted to go all out to go against the Sheng family, Sheng Hong would really have nothing to do with him.
As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
That's the truth.
Of course, Wei Chen is not without scruples. For example, the Wuquan Winery he opened in partnership with Sheng Wei, or his friendship with Sheng Changbai, these things cannot be given up.
It depends on who can handle this kind of thing better.
Of course Sheng Hong understands this.
If the other party is the head of a family like Sheng Hong, Sheng Hong can also explain the pros and cons to the other party, and everyone can weigh it and compare their patience.
But Wei Chen is only twelve years old this year, which is the time when youth is full of energy and cannot be stimulated. Does Sheng Hong dare to pin the honor and disgrace of the Sheng family on the rationality of a twelve-year-old boy?
Seeing the changing expression on Sheng Hong's face, Sheng Changbai knew that he was shaken, so he struck a chord while the iron was hot: "Father, Xingyun is not an unreasonable person. As long as we can treat Wei Xiaoniang well, Xingyun is still willing to join our Sheng family."
Good friends."
Lin Xiaoniang and Wei Xiaoniang are not on good terms, so if you treat Wei Xiaoniang well, the implication is that you will naturally suppress Lin Xiaoniang.
After thinking for a moment, Sheng Hong seemed to have made up his mind and looked up at Sheng Changbai: "Bai'er, go and ask Wei Chen to come over. My father wants to talk to him."
Sheng Hong, a dignified sixth-grade general judge, and soon a fifth-grade imperial official, had to bow his head to a young student. Of course, Sheng Hong felt extremely aggrieved.
But after all, he is an old man who has been in the officialdom for more than 20 years, and he quickly adjusted his mentality.
In the final analysis, he had nothing to lose except losing some face, and he did this to save even more face.
When Wei Chen saw Sheng Hong in the study, Sheng Hong already had a breathtaking smile on his face.
"My dear nephew, I have gotten used to food and accommodation these days. Is there anything I have not taken good care of below?"
Wei Chen bowed and said, "Thank you uncle for your concern. My uncle entertained my nephew with great care. My nephew is really scared."
Afraid?
I think you are afraid that the world will not be in chaos!
Sheng Hong secretly cursed, but still said with a smile on his face: "Some time ago, your aunt was busy arranging Hua Lan's wedding, so she asked Lin Xiaoniang to help take care of the housekeeper. She is young and tender, and she can't control the people below, so she commits many crimes.
What a shame. I called you here just to let you know that your aunt will still be in charge of the house from now on. If there is anything missing in the west wing, just go to Wei Ruixuan to find your aunt, okay?"
/p>
Wei Chen still said respectfully: "This is my uncle's family matter. My nephew has no say in it. As long as my uncle thinks it's good, then it's good."
Sheng Hong was very satisfied with Wei Chen's sensible attitude. No matter how Wei Chen complained or even threatened Sheng Changbai in private, at least there was nothing out of line in front of him at this time.
Of course Sheng Hong understood that Wei Chen was acting like this on purpose, but he still felt a lot more comfortable.
"The birth of Wei Xiaoniang this time was all due to Mother Zhao's hard work. The entire Sheng family is very grateful. When you and Changbai return to Jiangning to take the exam, remember to thank your Uncle Sheng for me. He finally found Mother Zhao.
This capable servant was specially sent to Qinyun Court to take care of my Xiaoqi. I will definitely not let him down."
Wei Chen felt funny in his heart. If you two brothers have anything to say, just talk to each other directly. What do you want me to say to an outsider?
However, he also understood that this was Sheng Hong's promise to him that he would not use Qinyun Yuan's manpower in the future, so he would not be ignorant of good and evil, so he agreed immediately.
Lifting Lin Sushuang's power as housekeeper and retaining the manpower of Qinyun Academy for a long time. These two promises are enough to show Sheng Hong's attitude towards this incident: Lin Sushuang was wrong to force the door open, and everyone in Qinyun Academy protects the master.
Meritful.
Of course, this was tacitly understood by both parties. Sheng Hong made compensation in exchange for Wei Chen's understanding, and both parties were happy.
In fact, Wei Chen knew very well that since Wei Shuyi gave birth to Sheng Hong's third son, Lin Sushuang could no longer threaten the lives of their mother and son.
Therefore, Wei Chen never thought that Sheng Hong would deal with Lin Sushuang severely. He just wanted Wei Shuyi, mother and son to have a more stable and comfortable living environment in the Sheng family.
If the pressure continues and Sheng Hong is really offended, I am afraid that the life of Wei Shuyi, mother and son in the Sheng family will be even more difficult.
In the final analysis, no matter Wei Shuyi, Minglan, or the newborn Xiaoqi of the Sheng family, they are all members of the Sheng family, and what Wei Chen can do for them is very limited.
After achieving his goal, Wei Chen no longer wanted to continue to deal with Sheng Hongxu, and stood up to leave. Sheng Hong was depressed, wishing that Wei Chen would get out of here, so naturally he would not stay.
After Wei Chen left, Sheng Hong cheered up and went to Lin Sushuang's room. Bi Tou asked about Lin Sushuang's forced entry into the hospital a few days ago.
Lin Sushuang still said the same thing. She only said that she thought it was a cunning servant who wanted to kill the master's heir, so she took this trick out of desperation, but it turned out to be a misunderstanding.
Sheng Hong said coldly: "What's the truth? There are eyes all over the house. You didn't say it with your mouth. Do you think I don't know what you are thinking?"
Being stared at by Sheng Hong's sharp eyes, Lin Sushuang felt inexplicably panicked. She didn't expect that Sheng Hong, who had always been controlled by her, would suddenly start to distinguish right from wrong today.
Lin Sushuang didn't show anything on her face, she just looked at Sheng Hong with tears in her eyes. I really felt pity for him when I saw him.
In the past, when Sheng Hong saw Lin Sushuang's appearance, he could not help but be gentle with her. However, today he was feeling depressed and could only blame Lin Sushuang instead of Wei Chen.
"The incident on the day Wei Xiaoniang gave birth has been revealed. I will order no one in the house to mention it. But from today on, you need to hand over the key. The affairs of the back house are still under the control of the eldest lady, so you don't have to
Don’t worry anymore.”
Lin Sushuang's beautiful face turned pale, and she felt cold in her heart, but she heard Sheng Hong say again: "We are all clansmen, and Wei Xiaoniang's clansmen are small and medium-sized three yuan, and their poems are famous all over Yangzhou City. Look at those clans of yours
My dear, that day when we were drinking wine and performing in Yangzhou, the scene was even more grand than my Tongsuan. From now on, I will send all these free-spirited people back, so as not to ruin the reputation of my Sheng family!"
When Lin Sushuang heard Sheng Hong going over old scores, she realized that Sheng Hong was really angry. She had a lot to say, but at this time she was speechless. She just nodded her head with tears in her eyes, looking frightened.
