After hearing the solution proposed by Shen Tianshu, Mrs. Jiang's first reaction was that Mrs. Tong really knew how to do business. Before her daughter's illness was cured, she already wanted to use her own family as a springboard?
But then I thought about it, since Lady Tong was already treating Prince Rui, there seemed to be no need to keep him at home.
The most important thing is that Jiang Yuling's condition is unstable now, and she is quite resistant to getting married. If something unexpected happens after getting married, it is better to take Lady Tong's suggestion and give it a try first.
Shen Tianshu came out secretly, but fortunately, the Jiang family's mother and daughter were comforted, so the trouble was not in vain.
"I have to go back to Wuchang Mansion first. After I come back, we will discuss it again." Shen Tianshu did not dare to delay any longer, so he explained a few words to Mrs. Jiang and left in a hurry.
At this time, in Xu's mourning hall, Xu Bingrong had already tormented Mrs. Shen and Shen Zhonglei who had already fallen asleep.
"If I hadn't suddenly missed my sister in the middle of the night and came to see her, I wouldn't have known that this is how your Xu family keeps a wake." Xu Bingrong was worried that he had no excuse to use the topic, and he was quite unreasonable.
In fact, how could Xu Bingrong and Xu Yurou have such a deep relationship.
It's just that he stayed in Shen Mansion for several days and almost got sick.
The maids in the Shen Mansion all gave him a wide berth, and to be fair, he couldn't go out looking for flowers at this time.
I usually don't go to bed until late at night after playing, and I can't fall asleep even if I go to bed early.
The long night without anyone is boring and unbearable.
So he didn't know what to think about tonight, thinking that he might as well come to the mourning hall for a while, so that he could talk to Shen Tianshu for a while.
Even if you can't see or touch it, it's better than sleeping alone.
Unexpectedly, when he thought of the mourning hall, he found that there was no trace of Shen Tianshu. Shen Yunhui hesitated and couldn't explain why, so he immediately started making trouble.
Old Mrs. Shen was getting older and was already irritable when she was woken up in the middle of the night. After hearing this, she looked at Shen Yunhui, frowned and asked, "Yunhui, tell me, where has your eldest sister gone?"
Shen Yunhui shook his head according to Shen Tianshu's instructions and said: "Returning to my grandmother, I don't know where the eldest sister has gone, but she probably hasn't been away for long. The eldest sister talked to me not long before my uncle came, and I have been at the funeral since then. Kneeling and burning paper, I didn’t even know that the eldest sister had gone out, maybe she went to clean the room or change clothes?”
"It's been half an hour since I came here. How come I can't change my clothes back?" Xu Bingrong refused to give up. He even sat down on the ground and howled, "My miserable sister! Why are you talking to your nephew and niece?" We went together! Look at you, the Shen family doesn’t take you seriously anymore after you leave, and they don’t even keep a vigil for you properly——"
Shen Zhonglei raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows. He was so irritated by his noise that he finally couldn't help but said: "Come here, go to Shuangtang Courtyard and take a look. Bring everyone in the eldest girl's room and I will ask in person."
Not long after, Aunt Yang and the maids and ladies from Shuangtang Courtyard were brought to the mourning hall. Everyone looked panicked and confused.
Shen Zhonglei asked: "Have you seen Shu'er tonight?"
The people below all shook their heads, only Grandma Yang said: "I saw the girl when I came to deliver food at night."
"Then do you know where Shu'er went?" Shen Zhonglei asked.
"Where have you gone?" Nanny Yang looked up in surprise, looked at Shen Zhonglei, and asked, "Isn't the girl not in the mourning hall?"
Shen Zhonglei was so angry that he slapped the table and said, "Should I ask you or you ask me now?"
Aunt Yang quickly knelt down and said, "I will serve the girl after dinner and then go back. The girl should have been keeping vigil in the mourning hall!
"By the way, Mingyu is on duty tonight, where is Mingyu?"
As Nanny Yang spoke, she looked around, and everyone realized that Mingyu was not in the mourning hall either.
Hearing this, Xu Bingrong became even more noisy: "Okay, neither in the mourning hall nor in your own room. Could it be that in the middle of the night, you eldest daughter of the Shen family disappeared out of thin air? Could it be that you took the maid out to meet a man privately?" "
It's okay that he didn't say this, but once he said this, it immediately evoked bad associations with Shen Zhonglei.
Shen Zhonglei quickly took a few steps forward, raised his hand and slapped Xu Bingrong, and said angrily: "Keep your mouth clean, Shu'er is not that kind of person.
"You, the old Xu family, are so dirty, do you think everyone in the world is like this?"
Xu Bingrong was stunned for a moment. He didn't think about it further. He just thought that Shen Zhonglei's dirty words were referring to Xu Yihao's immediate affair, and he immediately became angry.
He stopped calling his brother-in-law now and called him by his first name: "Shen Zhonglei, don't bully me too much. Do you dare to hit me in front of my sister's spiritual body? I will fight you!"
This is the Shen family after all. No one stopped Shen Zhonglei when he took action, but it was not so easy for Xu Bingrong to fight back.
Hula, a group of people gathered around to separate him from Shen Zhonglei.
Xu Bingrong was so angry that he stretched out his arms and kicked his legs, but was directly picked up and placed in the courtyard where Shen Zhonglei was.
Old Mrs. Shen was annoyed by the fuss and was afraid that Shen Zhonglei would say something that she shouldn't have said again.
Although Xu Bingrong didn't hear anything now, there was no guarantee that if he thought about it carefully when he went back, he might find out something he shouldn't know.
So she said: "Second brother, what do you look like!"
After she winked at Shen Zhonglei, she turned to Xu Bingrong and asked, "What does her uncle think about this matter?"
Seeing Mrs. Xu's attitude, Xu Bingrong immediately pulled her up again, shook off the servant who had been holding him up, and said: "This is not easy to handle. Let's ask people to search the house and find the person quickly, so that the girl can be innocent." no?"
Mrs. Shen originally wanted to settle the matter, but after hearing Xu Bingrong's request, her face became a little uneasy.
There is still a mourning shed set up at home. What if the incident of searching the house is spread out and people hear about it?
You might think something scandalous has happened to the Shen family!
"Why, the old lady doesn't dare to ask people to search the house? Could it be that I'm really right..."
Before Xu Bingrong finished speaking, a familiar voice suddenly came from the door of the mourning hall: "Grandma, dad, why are there so many people here? What happened?"
Everyone in the mourning hall looked towards the door, and saw Shen Tianshu dressed in mourning clothes, rubbing his hands as he walked in, with a look of surprise on his little face that was blown red by the night wind.
When Mrs. Shen saw her coming back with Mingyu, she felt more at ease, but she still kept a straight face and asked in a stern tone: "You have the nerve to ask, where did you go if you didn't keep a good vigil in the middle of the night? Did you leave the whole family?" Everyone is looking for you!"
Xu Bingrong's eyes were fixed on Shen Tianshu, scanning up and down, eager to catch her flaw immediately.
