Not to mention all the things that happened in the Hou Mansion, I just want to say that when Qing'er came home today, the setting sun was floating in the western sky.
Sang Nuanyue was walking in the backyard. When she heard that her brother was back, she hurried over to block him.
Qing'er smiled flatteringly at her sister when she saw her. Unfortunately, Sang Nianyue didn't do this at all today.
She glared at Qing'er and asked him, "You took a bath today, but you ran out early in the morning and didn't come home at noon. You didn't come back until after dark. Tell me carefully, what have you done all day?" What have you been doing? If you don’t tell me one, two, three, I’ll break your legs today.”
Qing'er looked at her sister's empty hands and laughed again.
What I was thinking in my mind was that my sister really wanted to scare people by holding a stick in her hand. Fortunately for her, she didn't take the stick and even said she would break his legs. What to hit with, her hand? The bones in his body were very hard, but if he couldn't hit his legs, it would hurt his sister's hand.
Qing'er's eyebrows and eyes flew up when she smiled, and Sang Nianyue became even more angry when she saw that he was a dead pig who was not afraid of being scalded by boiling water.
She looked around, preparing to find a convenient tool. Seeing this, Qing'er didn't dare to act like a monster again. He quickly turned serious and told everything he had done today.
Sang Nianyue actually believed her brother's words, but she didn't want to be so talkative in front of her brother. In the past, Qing'er was easy to talk to because she was timid, but now she is hard to talk to simply because this child has become so courageous that he has almost evolved to the point where he has given up.
She stared at Zhuye and Zhuqing and asked: "You two, tell me what the young master has done today. If you dare to hide even a little bit, you should not follow the young master in the future."
Zhuye and Zhuqing felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and immediately got together to wonder whether the young master had said anything.
There are results.
The young master made a special trip to visit the prison today to see how Wang Hongyuan and Wang Hongcai were doing in prison. Of course, he passed by secretly without alerting Wang Hongyuan and Wang Hongcai. He only took a few glances and ran away secretly.
This... shouldn't be a big deal, right?
Zhuye and Zhuqing retreated, Qing'er looked at her sister defensively, watching her sister go to get the broom aside, Qing'er ran away. "Sister, you are my biological sister. Sister, I don't dare to do anything anymore. I didn't do anything, I just sneaked into the prison. I didn't dare to let Wang Hongyuan and Wang Hongcai see me, so I ran away. Sister, I really never dare to do it again."
After all, Sang Nuanyue was not as strong as Qing'er. Qing'er ran in front while Sang Nuanyue chased behind. After chasing for a while, she couldn't catch up, so she could only stop and take a breath.
Qing'er was actually afraid of making his sister angry. After seeing her sister stop, he quickly stopped too. He quietly moved towards his sister. As he moved, he said pitifully: "Sister, for the sake of my meritorious service today, don't you punish me for secretly visiting the prison? I know it's not possible to do this. Okay, if Wang Hongyuan and Wang Hongcai see me, they will definitely hate me even more. When they are released from prison, they will come to us for trouble. But I was careful and ran away after just two glances. Sister, they used to bully me a lot Cruel, they even forced me to get under their crotches. Now that they are finally unlucky, I am gloating to see how they are suffering, shouldn't I?"
Sang Nuanyue wasn't angry at first, but she just considered Qing'er's personal safety and didn't want him to put himself in danger again.
But my brother knew what he was doing and what risks he would take.
And he did run in time without anyone noticing. Then what else could she be angry about?
It was not easy for my younger brother to live in the Wang family before. He was chased and beaten by Wang Hongyuan and Wang Hongcai. They even cursed me harshly. My younger brother was scolded and cried more than once. Now that everything is fine, things have changed, so what if the younger brother ridicules them? What's more, the younger brother didn't show up at all. They didn't know that their downfall was seen by Qing'er. Everything passed calmly. Did she have any reason to punish her younger brother?
there is none left.
Sang Nuanyue rubbed Qing'er's head and said, "I'll let you go this time. If you dare to do it next time, I'll deal with you together."
"Oh, thank you sister. Don't worry, sister, I really don't dare to do it anymore." Qing'er returned to her happy look, and then the two siblings washed their hands and faces together and went to have dinner.
While eating, Qing'er told him what he had been busy with today.
He went out to find Zhou Bingkun early in the morning. Unfortunately, he was not a son of a powerful family. He had a way to directly check who were the candidates for this year's scientific examination. He could only use stupid methods to find restaurants one by one. After searching for most of the day, no one was found. Just when he was wondering whether Zhou Bingkun really didn't go to Beijing this year, he walked to the Zhuangyuan Building, and then at the door of the Zhuangyuan Building, he met Zhou Bingkun who was out with his friends.
Qing'er still remembers Zhou Bingkun's appearance, but Zhou Bingkun no longer remembers him at all. It can't be said that I don't remember it, I can only say that I can't recognize it. After all, Qing'er was only about five years old when she left the Zhou family, and he is ten years old now. He is now half a child, and his stature has grown a lot, which is completely different from the childish look he had before. Therefore, even though he and Zhou Bingkun looked at each other, Zhou Bingkun didn't care and continued talking to his friends and walked away.
Qing'er then entered the restaurant and gave the waiter a few copper coins, and easily found out that the judge was from Huizhou. They didn't know his specific name, but people traveling with him called him "Brother Zhou" or "Brother Zhou Xian".
Upon hearing this, Sang Nuanyue said, "Then it is undoubtedly Zhou Bingkun." After sighing, Sang Nuanyue praised her younger brother, "You are young, but you have a clever mind. I didn't even expect that Zhou Bingkun would not stay in the Hou Mansion. You did think of it."
Qing'er smiled again, full of youthful spirit. He said, "Yesterday when I was sleeping, my sister and Sister Sujin were discussing this matter. I heard it in my ears at that time, and I also thought that there were loopholes in this matter. But my sister is from a girl's family, and I can't let it happen. My sister went out to investigate the matter, so I must be the only one who came forward. I originally wanted to find out the matter today so that I could give my sister a surprise, but the result was great. As soon as I entered the house, my sister threatened me and said she would break my legs. "
This little guy, does he feel wronged again?
Sang Nuanyue looked over and saw her younger brother peeking at her. She immediately couldn't laugh or cry, and threatened Qing'er with a straight face, "Next time you dare to sneak out without saying a word, I will really break your legs."
"Sister, are you really my sister? Why are you so cruel to me now? Am I not your favorite brother?"
The two siblings joked and joked, and the meal was lively.
After the meal, Qing'er said, "Sister, I'm going to go find Zhou Bingkun tomorrow. I want to tell him what evil Zhou Baolu has done, so that he will be embarrassed to call in reinforcements."
"You... okay?" Sang Nianyue wanted to go by herself, but it didn't seem appropriate for her to go. After all, she was the victim in this matter. Now she is safe and sound, but Zhou Baolu was sent to the family temple by her husband's family for repair.
No matter how kind and reasonable Zhou Bingkun is, Zhou Baolu is his biological sister after all. Zhou Baolu is living a hard life, and his brother will definitely look down upon him. He is an older brother and definitely wants to support his sister.
However, Zhou Baolu was in the wrong in this matter, and the Hou Mansion was obviously handling it lightly. If Zhou Bingkun was still dissatisfied under this situation, what else would he want?
For a moment, she thought that Zhou Baolu still had a brother who protected her, and for another moment, she thought of the "handling with care" of the Hou family. Sang Nuanyue suddenly felt discouraged. She opened her mouth and said to Qing'er: "Don't bother with this matter. What will happen to my uncle and aunt even if they go to Beijing? The capital is not Huizhou, and it is not a place where they can be unreasonable. If they really dare to attack me, I don’t mind reporting it to the official either.”
Sang Nianyue was really fed up with the Zhou family, and she wished she could never have any contact with them. Thinking like this, she suddenly felt that she might as well take this opportunity to tear them apart directly.
She is the eldest uncle of her mother. She lived in the Zhou Mansion for four years after giving birth to her mother, and the Zhou Mansion was kind to her in raising her. But she actually paid money to live in the Zhou Mansion, and she also contributed a lot to the Zhou family every year. If this matter was brought up to argue, the Zhou family would not be able to end well.
Next, she still holds the trump card in her hand, which is that Zhou Baolu was once engaged to Wang Wenju, but at the right time he pushed her to Wang Wenju.
When she was cornered, she took the matter directly to the Hou Mansion.
Shen Tinglan was already dissatisfied with Zhou Baolu. If he knew that she had been so scheming earlier, he would probably give up on her.
So, everyone can just live their own lives in peace and quiet. If it really makes her anxious, the worst is possible.
Sang Nuanyue gritted her teeth and made a decision in her heart.
After hearing her sister's words, Qing'er felt a little moved for a moment, and then thought that if things really got to that point, there would probably be no place for their siblings in the capital. It just so happened that he was not comfortable staying in that private school. Why not move to Minzhou? Maybe they could meet his eldest brother in Minzhou...
Qing'er was ready to make a move and really gave up her plan to find Zhou Bingkun again.
He woke up the next day and was getting ready to go to private school. It was at this time that the door of Sang's house was knocked awake again.
The person who came was a kind-hearted steward. As soon as he saw Uncle Mute who opened the door, he smiled and said, "I am the steward of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion. Today, I followed the old lady's instructions and came here specifically to find my aunt from the Sang family."
When Qing'er heard this, she quickly walked out to see Li. Then he called Su Xin over and asked Su Xin to tell his sister about the matter.
As for him, he had already gotten up late today, and if he delayed further and went to school even later, he would definitely be punished by his master. In order to avoid being laughed at by everyone, Qing'er picked up a big bun and ran out while eating it.
Zhuye and Zhuqing saw this and hurriedly chased after him.
The steward sat in the flower hall for a while, and Sang Nianyue hurriedly came out of the back house.
After Su Jin came back yesterday, she conveyed the old lady's intention to her. Naturally, Sang Nianyue's intention was to try not to get involved with the Hou Mansion. Fortunately, Uncle Mute and the others went to find a broker separately yesterday, and they did find two better properties.
Because the matter was urgent, Sang Nianyue didn't go out to inspect, so he directly gave the money to Uncle Ya and asked him to buy one of the shops.
The shop was in a remote location, far away from the current residence. But the one saving grace is that the shop is very large and has a backyard with a patio.
Afterwards, it was very convenient for Uncle Ya to show people around the store. In addition, the store was newly built, made of clear blue bricks, and had good fire protection. After buying it, Sang Nianyue did not regret it.
Now that she met the steward, Sang Nianyue explained the matter and even showed the shop's deed to the steward.
The steward didn't look at anything else but paid special attention to the location and the transfer date.
The location is a bit remote, just in Nancheng. There are poor families nearby, and only a few people can afford to study. As for the transfer date, it is neither early nor late, just before the officials from the Yamen went to the Yamen yesterday.
The manager is an old man, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is an old man.
He knew at just one glance that the Sang siblings bought this shop in a hurry. Most likely, they didn't want to take advantage of the Hou Mansion.
People who are self-reliant and ambitious can always make people look up to them.
The steward's attitude immediately became more respectful, and then he exchanged a few words with Sang Nianyue before saying goodbye and leaving.
The purpose of his coming here today was to accompany Sang Nianyue to look at the shop. Now that the Sang family had their own shop, there was no use for him to stay, so he went back to the Marquis Mansion.
In the Hou Mansion, the old lady was a little upset when she learned that her feelings had not been sent out.
She asked the steward and found out that the shop had just been purchased yesterday, and couldn't help but sigh.
She knew that the Sang siblings didn't like to take advantage of others, but could other people's advantages be the same as hers?
The Sang siblings still treat her as an outsider.
Realizing this day, the old lady was in a state of depression that day, and even the food was not fragrant.
Shen Yuyao dressed up in colorful clothes and entertained her, but the old lady didn't even laugh. This made Shen Yuyao feel a little emotional, saying that the old lady didn't like her anymore, and she didn't even smile when she saw her.
But the old lady drove her back to the room: "I've been living at your uncle's house for half a month. Do you still remember that you have a biological mother? Get out of my sight and let me be quiet for a while, you little talker. The noise makes my head hurt.”
Shen Yuyao was even more dissatisfied and shouted: "I live well at my uncle's house, but you said you missed me and urged me to go home. Now that I'm home, you dislike me and make you have a headache. Mother. Mom, are you my biological mother?"
"No, no. Who knows who your biological mother is? You should hurry up and find her."
The mother and daughter broke up unhappy. When they came to pay their respects to the old lady in the evening, both mother and daughter complained to Shen Tingjun.
The old lady felt that her feelings were not conveyed, and the two siblings were alienated from her. Shen Yuyao said that her mother's thoughts were with those two siblings. She was like a girl picked up for free, so she might as well give her away.
The mother and daughter choked, and Shen Tingjun sat aside and drank tea.
At this time, he caught a glimpse of a figure walking quietly outside the door, and he shouted: "Since Sanlang is here, why are you leaving without paying your mother's regards?"
Everyone's attention was diverted, and everyone looked out in unison. Shen Tinglan's back felt cold, and she almost couldn't even move her feet when walking.
