Chapter 154 The Old Marquis Wants to Divorce His Wife
Lord Shen looked at Shen Wen's hypocritical and pretentious appearance. His original anger suddenly increased to seven points, but he had to endure it. He was not forbearing, but after weighing the pros and cons, he had to endure it. He was afraid that if his anger was released, this fragile and pretentious little thing would not be able to bear it. Once his attitude was conveyed to the entire mansion, this little thing would really become the enemy of the entire family. Those brainless and mischievous descendants would come up with endless open and secret plots against him. If he died like this, it would be a big loss!
Lord Shen ordered the maid behind him, "Go and order another table of food, and invite your Seventeenth Young Master to come and sit down. We were supposed to have a family dinner, but he didn't even get to eat a single bite. How can this be?"
Shen Wenyu obediently sat back in his seat.
There was more than enough space for the family banquet. The people in the kitchen knew the character of these masters. Whenever the marquis and his wife left, they would drink and eat meat to their heart's content and have a good time all night long.
The maid led the people to serve the food quickly, bringing the plates to the table one by one.
But the eldest brother and the fourth brother were crying and wiping tears in sorrow.
Lord Shen invited Shen Wen to eat, and also told the maid to pick out the dishes he liked.
The grandfather and grandson ate a few bites before Lord Shen said, "How did you know about that servant? Did Lord Chu Yanqiu tell you?"
Shen Wen stopped eating and shook his head, "Him? He didn't know who I was at that time. Maybe he didn't take our Shen family seriously."
Lord Shen looked at Shen Wen and thought for a while, then pointed at Shen Haofeng and said, "Has your tenth brother been secretly communicating with Prince Rui for a long time?"
Shen Wen asked in confusion: "Prince Rui? Prince Rui...why does it sound so familiar?" He turned around and asked Shen Haofeng: "Tenth brother, how many princes do we have in Dajue country?"
Then he said to Lord Shen: "Grandfather, you should ask Brother Ten about this, why are you asking me?"
Suddenly, he said, "Ah! I remember now, my brother-in-law. Both of my sisters married him. How could I have forgotten about him?"
Lord Shen was still thinking about things, but the first and fourth wives were crying and were angry. Lord Shen put down his chopsticks, looked up and said to the first wife: "Why are you crying? I'm not dead yet."
The eldest lady shuddered with fear, and the couple knelt down together.
Lord Shen asked, "Madam, tell me, why did you give that woman the abortion drug?"
The eldest lady cried, "It's my daughter-in-law's fault. I, as a mother, failed to protect my daughter. Father-in-law, you also know about Shuyuan's situation. I... I am helpless. The reputation of our Shen family cannot be ruined... ruined... I made up my mind with a sharp pain in my heart. Shuyuan had no choice but to die... Woo... The master refused to find a good place to bury his daughter. I thought... Haofeng was always making trouble anyway, and I didn't know how terrible that concubine was. I didn't know she was pregnant. I thought that if that woman died, it would be a good time to mourn with Shuyuan. My daughter... There will always be a grave mound during the Cold Food Festival so that an old mother like me can burn paper for her... Woo..."
It was a series of words, spoken in a discontinuous manner, which showed how heartbroken he was.
The master couldn't help but shed tears when he thought of his daughter and the pain of separation from his family.
Later, everyone in the palace knew about Shen Shuyuan's affairs. A good girl was kidnapped, and later she met Prince Rui, who saved her from the fire. It was understandable that she devoted herself to Prince Rui. Later, she became pregnant with Prince Rui's child, which was a disgrace to the family, but if it wasn't so, how could Prince Rui marry her with a matchmaker and gifts?
The fourth wife was not a fool, she had thought it through. And that concubine? If it wasn't for the fact that her son had no children, the fourth wife would have looked down on that bitch, and even the child in her belly. After all, her son couldn't have children, so when she heard that it was the first wife who killed her grandson who might have survived, the fourth wife was too excited, and she got into a fight with the first wife and her husband.
This was true, but the Fourth Lady still felt sorry for her grandson, and at the same time was annoyed by the First Lady's vicious intentions.
The fourth lady was unwilling to give up. She wiped her tears and said, "Sister-in-law, did you really not know that Hua was pregnant? I'm afraid that's not the case! Even if Hua was not pregnant, she was a living person. Sister-in-law was so cruel. Poor child, my son! In the end, there is no descendant. Father-in-law, you must make the decision for Haofeng."
Lord Shen is a very insightful person. Now that he thinks about it carefully, things were not that simple. I'm afraid that Prince Rui, that old fox, had already set his sights on the Shen family a long time ago.
Lord Shen looked at Shen Haofeng and said, "Tenth Old Man, what do you say about what your mother said?"
Naturally, Shen Haofeng could not do as his mother wished. If this matter continued to be entangled, not only would his son, who was still a pool of blood, even he, a living man, would be torn into pieces.
Shen Haofeng said: "It is my grandson who is unlucky. I cannot blame others. I only ask one thing from you, grandfather. It is these three joys. Please leave them to me."
The Fourth Lady wanted to struggle again, but was stopped by the Fourth Master, so she had to give up.
This sudden and confusing lawsuit was finally settled, and the eldest master and his wife, as well as the fourth master and his family, were all gone.
Leaving behind was Shen Meifeng, who was trembling with fear and dazed.
Lord Shen got angry when he saw him like that. Lord Shen waved his hand and said, "Come here, catch this evil creature and throw him into the woodshed! And that bastard Sixth Master actually raised such a vicious son. You guys tell me to go to the Sixth House first and give Sixth Master twenty lashes of the cane."
Shen Meifeng was so frightened that she fell to her knees. She was dragged up and was about to go out.
Shen Wen said: "Grandfather just revealed it like that? Grandfather really doesn't want to know who told him to do this?"
Lord Shen suddenly realized and said, "But it is true."
So he asked someone to drag Shen Meifeng back and asked him, "Evil creature, I want to ask you, why did you stab your fourth brother Chen Feng? Did anyone instruct you?"
Shen Meifeng was trembling non-stop. He was afraid that he would be beaten to death this time. Even if he was not beaten to death, the eldest lady would not forgive him. Thinking of this, he blurted out: "I didn't mean to stab Fourth Brother! I... I slipped and accidentally hurt Fourth Brother..."
But when he said this, he realized that he had let the cat out of the bag. He was afraid that if he continued to argue, he might really reveal the mastermind.
Shen Meifeng suddenly became tough, pointing a finger at Shen Wen and said, "I want to kill him. He is the cause of all the trouble. Ever since he came back to our family, our family has been in chaos. My brothers and sisters all say that if he is not removed, more people will be entangled in lawsuits. I am afraid that we, the masters, will be involved in lawsuits in the future, and even my father and uncle will be involved in lawsuits."
Lord Shen held his forehead with his hand!
Lord Shen shouted, "Take this unfriendly brother bastard away!"
Shen Meifeng was still staring at Shen Wen when he was dragged away.
Shen Wen lost his appetite, so he had to put down his chopsticks.
When Madam Hou saw her grandson being dragged away, she looked at Shen Wen with displeasure and said angrily, "What a jinx! You never let me live in peace."
Look! This old woman has many grandchildren, some of whom are raping other people's wives and daughters, some of whom are killing their brothers, some of whom are disloyal, and some of whom are not good at anything. She has never been seen to be sarcastic to any of them, but there is only one left, and she is farting there.
If it were the original owner, she would be hurt by her nonsense, but what about her?
It really has no killing power. Shen Wen shrugged his shoulders with an innocent look on his face.
However, she didn't expect that the old woman would be offended and immediately exploded. The Marquis's wife slammed the table heavily and pointed at Shen Wen angrily, "What's your attitude? How dare you disrespect my grandmother!"
Shen Wen opened his big innocent eyes and looked at the old marquis.
But the old marquis lowered his head and ate the rice in the bowl.
Shen Wen then turned around to look at the person behind him and started to curse, "I'm talking about you! I'm saying that you have a bad attitude. Why don't you apologize to your grandmother?"
The person standing behind him was originally Shen Shifeng. Because of the commotion caused by the first and fourth rooms, his father, the Seventh Master, pulled him back to his side. Later, the old marquis drove them away, and Shen Shifeng was pulled back home by his father, the Seventh Master, in such a dignified manner.
So the person standing behind Shen Wen at this moment is still the beautiful Shen Shuyu.
Shen Shuyu was pulled out, still in a daze.
He also went to see the old marquis, who then raised his head and looked at the situation of these people.
The old marquis said to Shen Shuyu, "Didn't I tell you all to go back? Why are you still here?"
Shen Shuyu then replied: "Ah! Yes! I was confused for a moment, so I followed the Marquis' orders and withdrew."
And then look at the Marquis’ wife.
If the Marquis's wife was upset today because Shen Wen jumped up and down at the banquet, she was just unhappy. But when she saw the exchange between the Marquis and Shen Shuyu, the nameless fire in the Marquis's wife's belly erupted like a volcano out of thin air.
The Marquis's wife stood up with a sullen face and said, "Wait! Did I tell you to leave? And you left? It seems that you don't take me, the Marquis's wife, seriously at all!"
Shen Wen raised his eyebrows slightly without noticing.
"Oh! Madam, why are you making things difficult for him for no reason?"
The Marquis said.
The Marquis's wife said, "How did I embarrass him? He is a relative who has chosen a house and has come to our Marquis's mansion. I asked him to be more respectful and polite to my grandmother. How did that make it difficult for him? He eats my food and uses my things. He lives in my best house. Isn't my request normal? But the Marquis, how can you protect and pamper a relative who is as distant as he can be, and even his own grandson? What's the logic behind this?"
Madam Hou looked at Shen Shu with trembling fingers and said, "Look at how feminine and charming he is. If he were put in Yixiang Tower..."
"lady!"
Lord Shen was really angry at this time. He glared at Madam Hou and said, "Do you know what mistake you made just now? You have been the mistress of this family for decades. How come you haven't made any progress under my teaching? I think you are tired of staying in my mansion. At this point, I will not force you. If you want to go back to your Gui family, I will ask my sons to send you back."
When the old marquis's wife heard this, she was so ashamed and angry that she covered her face and burst into tears.
