Chapter 226 Decided to split the family
On this day, Wan Xin received a letter from Qin Shudan. Just when he decided when the third prince was killed, Qin Shudan went to prison to meet the third prince. It can be said that he poured out all his long-cherished wishes and resentments he had accumulated over the years. Wan Xin didn't know what Qin Shudan told the third prince specifically, nor did he know what the third prince's reaction was. However, compared to his knowledge that Qin Shudan was the flesh and blood of Qin's imperial physician, he would be very surprised and upset that he had not killed all the people at the beginning, and there was a fish that had escaped the net.
Qin Shudan has already avenged his father and the Qin family. He never thought that he would one day kill his enemies. If Wan Xin did not have all this, he would not be able to do anything. Qin Shudan thanked Wan Xin in the letter, and said with just Wan Xin and went through fire and water. After reading the letter, Wan Xin burned it with candlelight. She did not ask Qin Shudan to repay her, because she was not selfless help, but had her own purpose. As long as Qin Shudan was by the emperor, then what she would do in the future, or learn about the news in the palace, is a great way.
The third prince's questioning and the raid of the royal family caused a great sensation in the capital. On the day the third prince's questioning and the execution, the Shen family also had a catastrophe. The court found out that Wei Sicang and the Shen family colluded with the Shen family and seized the Shen family's water transportation. However, due to Shen Rufei's affairs, Mr. Shen paid the Yan family a large sum of silver, resulting in the Shen family's water transportation no longer turning over. Faced with the people's demand for wages and debt collection, he had to pay the Shen family's land deeds.
Today, all the people from the Shen family gathered in the front hall, and everyone was frowning. Even the second and third bedrooms who didn't care about anything usually know what they were facing. The second uncle Shen worked in an industry and broke the silence of everyone, "Brother, you are the head of the Shen family. What should we do now in this situation?"
Mr. Shen also lost his former spirit. He didn't understand why Wei Sicang suddenly fell, and it also involved the Shen family's water transportation. The court seemed to have deliberately made a decision and checked all the accounts of the Shen family over the years, because the court checked the accounts of the Shen family every day, resulting in the loss of old and new customers.
"Brother, what should you do now? Is our family really going to live on the street?" Third uncle Shen Congjie asked anxiously when he saw Mr. Shen not saying anything. Although Tan on the side kept pulling his sleeves, he could not stop him from speaking.
Mr. Shen looked around and saw countless eyes looking at him. He sighed deeply, "Now is the most difficult time for the Shen family. What we have to solve first is where we live, and someone will take over the house in less than a few days. Now each house has taken out its own money, everyone will gather it to see how much money there is. What kind of house can we buy."
"What? Do we need to raise money?" The second uncle Shen was the first to object to his work. "Brother, this situation is related to the fact that you gave the Yan family a sum of money. If it weren't for the loss at that time, how could we have such a situation? According to my opinion, you should bear it alone."
"The second brother is right. You have no reason to let all of us bear the problem with your daughter." Third uncle Shen Congjie completely vented his anger with Shen Congye, and he didn't even have to pay for it.
Mr. Shen looked at his two younger brothers and kept shaking his head, trembling with anger. Jiang, who was beside him, quickly comforted Mr. Shen and reached out to give him a breath, "Master, don't be angry, think about it, is there any other way?"
Mr. Shen pushed Jiang away, "What can we do now? Don't you know how much money we have? If I hadn't been desperate, could I speak to them? But look at their current faces, none of them is willing to take the money!"
"Brother, I don't like to listen to me like this." Second Bo Chen has always been a person who is worthy of money when he is in his career. Now Shen Wanqi and the second prince have already gotten a relationship. If he brings such a family, wouldn't it have implicated Wanqi and also implicated him? "The Shen family has always had you in the hands of you. Even if you earn money, I will share a small portion of the money with my third brother. Most of this money is in the pocket of your big house. Now when you have difficulties, you think about your brother's little bit of pitiful silver. Is this just a matter of saying?"
"That's right, if you had to share the money when you made money before, Brother, now I'm asking me to pay for it. But you didn't do that at that time. Second brother, are you right?" Although the third uncle Chen Congjie is not young, he is also a loser. The little money Mr. Shen gave him would not be enough for him to spend. How could he have rich money to buy a house?
"You didn't do anything. What did you do for Shen Jiashuiyun? You actually want to make a profit equally?" Jiang said. She had long been disgusted with the faces of the two houses. She had always been lazy and disgusted with the work. She could not do anything except knowing to get the money.
"Sister-in-law, how can this man be a man interject with him?" The second aunt Jiang has always been a shrew. When she saw that her master was actually told by another woman, she immediately jumped out.
"No, look at us, how could we interrupt. Just look at you, sister-in-law, because you are the Shen family's stepmother... But I want to remind my sister-in-law that you have become the wife of the Shen family for a few days, and you are very arrogant." The third aunt Tan is not a good man. Jiang used to be just a fourth concubine. If Liu hadn't died, she would have been arrogant. Thinking that Jiang would nod and bow when she saw her, now she would have to bow when she saw Jiang. Thinking of this, she was so angry.
"Okay, stop quarrel!" Mr. Shen patted the table next to him vigorously, and finally calmed down the people in front of him.
The second aunt Jiang still had to speak, but was pulled by Chen Wanqi before shutting her mouth.
"Brother, what do you think you should do?" The second uncle Chen pursued Mr. Shen unyieldingly, and he must have given a conclusion today before he could give him a final decision.
"The remaining money now is not enough for this family to live in, nor is it enough to support everyone's expenses. If you are unwilling to pay for the money, then split the family." As soon as Mr. Shen said this, Chen Congye and Shen Congjie looked at each other in no trace. They wanted the answer, split the family!
"Brother, I have no objection to the division of the family. I just follow the rules of my ancestors. If the division is divided, you cannot take the money away by yourself. The Shen family's water fortune belongs to us three brothers, not to you alone." Chen Congye picked up the tea cup beside him and savored the tea. He wanted to split up as soon as possible so that he could not be implicated by this group of people.
"The second brother said nothing. How much silver do you have in your hands now? It's three points, and we'll split it up at one beat." Hearing that there was a silver share, Chen Congjie immediately lit up. He still owed the silver from the gambling house and didn't know how to pay it back. As for where to live in the future, Tan's dowry is still available.
"You, you!" Mr. Shen pointed at the two of them tremblingly, so angry that he couldn't speak. He didn't expect that his younger brother who had loved all his life would have such a face. It was really a fallen tree and money was scattered. No family affection was as important as a ingot of silver. "Okay, divide it, madam, go and get the silver bill! We'll divide it tonight."
Jiang looked at Mr. Shen with a little hesitation. The money they had left was very small. If they were divided into three parts, then they would not even have enough money to buy a small house. Would they have to sleep on the streets?
"Go and get it!" Master Shen was furious when he saw Jiang still in place, "Everyone doesn't listen to me anymore. I am still the master of the Shen family?"
Seeing that Mr. Shen was angry, Jiang was also shocked and immediately went back to get the silver notes.
Mr. Shen closed his eyes, took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, "Since we are going to separate today, we will handle all the servants. If you two servants still need to keep them, you will bear the expenses in the future. If you don't need them, you will pay the bill today and let them leave."
After a while, Jiang took out the silver notes. Chen Congjie and Shen Congye stared at the thick silver notes in Jiang's hand, and their eyes were about to fall off. Jiang glared at them fiercely and handed the silver notes in his hand to Mr. Shen, "That's all of them."
Mr. Shen reached out to touch the stack of silver notes. The industry he had built for half his life was now only one left. "I have said just now. You decide now. Madam, so are we. Now our situation can no longer bear the expenses of so many servants. Look at two or three people left, and the rest will be dispersed."
"Brother, you are really good at making a plan." When he heard that he wanted to reduce the money again, the third uncle Chen Congjie muttered very dissatisfiedly. He didn't care about the food, clothing and expenses of the maids and servants at home. Anyway, it was not his turn to worry about all this, and everything was arranged by Tan.
Mr. Shen had no intention of paying attention to Chen's bastard words when he was working. He looked up and saw Chen Wanxin who had not made any sound. When he saw Chen Wanxin, he suddenly swept to Cui Liu beside him. Although Mr. Shen and Cui Liu's eyes only met for a moment, his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Could it be that the current situation of the Shen family has something to do with Cui Liu? It is impossible. She is just a maid. What ability can make the Shen family's water transportation collapse?
"Wanxin."
"Father." Wan Xin answered Master Shen very reluctantly. At this moment, all the friendship with Master Shen in her heart was gone.
"You have heard what I said just now. All the maids around you have been dismissed." Mr. Shen did not think that Wan Xin still needs the service of any servants. What he is thinking about now is how to reduce expenses so that he can make a comeback as soon as possible.
When Mingyue and Bai Zhi heard Mr. Shen's words, they immediately grabbed Wanxin's clothes from left to right. Wanxin gave them comforting eyes, "Father, my maid, it's up to me to decide. Your words made me dismiss them? Who will serve my life in the future?"
"Rareless!" Mr. Shen couldn't get angry with his younger brothers, but facing Wan Xin, he couldn't bear his anger at all. "Do you still need someone to serve? Have you not seen the current situation of the Shen family? We have left a few maids to serve us, which is the biggest concession. Otherwise, you should be there to serve your parents and parents!"
Wan Xin raised his bright eyes and met Mr. Shen's eyes that were full of red bloodshot because of his anger. "Wan Xin also looks like filial piety, but my mother is dead."
Mr. Shen was about to get furious when he heard Wan Xin's words, but for some reason, he suddenly shrank back. Jiang was very surprised to see Mr. Shen's reaction, "Wan Xin, although I am not your biological mother, why is it your legitimate mother? And Mr. Shen is also your biological father. How are you talking?"
"My mother, Wan Xin has always respected you. I hope her mother will not bully people too much, otherwise Wan Xin can do anything. These two maids, Mingyue, has been by my side since childhood. When I was abandoned by you, it was Mingyue by my side. Now you ask me to drive her away? Wan Xin can't do it." This is the first time Wan Xin is so tough in the Shen Mansion. Everyone, including the second and third rooms, was stunned. How could Shen Wanxin, who was once timid, speak like this today?
"Then Mingyue stay, another..." Jiang felt that what Wanxin wanted to say was what she and Wanxin had done before. She knew that Wanxin and Mingyue had a relationship like sisters. She immediately sighed softly.
"Bai Zhi must also stay. These two people are mine. Without my intention, no one can touch them!" Wan Xin protected her people like an old hen, and no one could take her people away from her.
"You! You are unfilial daughter. Now the Shen family is in this situation. You don't want to help the Shen family solve their problems, but you have to do your own thing!" Mr. Shen was stimulated one after another today. He was angry that he had already left the table and fell to the ground. The teacup was broken in response.
Wan Xin looked at the teacup on the ground without changing her face, "Father, this teacup is worth a lot of money, and our family has no money anymore."
"You...you..." Mr. Shen was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"Since my father is unwilling to bear the expenses of Mingyue and Bai Zhi, Wanxin has a way. Wanxin will move to his elder brother another day. If his father also wants to move in, Wanxin can help his father ask for his elder brother to see if he agrees." Wanxin predicted that Mr. Shen would never live in Shen Qiang. Shen Qiang had already disgusted with Mr. Shen. Even if Mr. Shen spoke, Shen Qiang would never agree.
"Master, I suddenly remembered that in the yard where Wanxin once lived, can we live there?" Wanxin mentioned the countryside and reminded Jiang that if he could live there, wouldn't it be the only money left to buy a house? Why not do it?
Wanxin didn't expect that Jiang would actually put her idea on the countryside yard, where she had asked Chen Jiayao to live temporarily, how could she let Jiang move over? Even if the small yard was empty, Wanxin wouldn't let them move over because the owner there was Shen Wanxin.
"I have sold that house." Wan Xin said, breaking Jiang's idea.
When Jiang heard Wan Xin's words, he lowered his head in frustration.
"Okay, okay, let's share the money?" San Bochen Congjie was impatient and started to do the money.
