Chapter 464 Murong Chen visits
After Zhu Yixuan, who was preparing for the exam, knew the cause and effect, he frowned and looked at Mr. Zhu and the housekeeper, "You didn't pay the deposit in advance?"
Mr. Zhu turned away and snorted, "Who in the entire county doesn't know that I have my eye on that coffin!"
Zhu Yixuan was speechless, "I believe in Lu Tong, but not necessarily Shen Yi. He won't care about what you fancy or whether he offends you!"
He had known about Shen Yi's temper a long time ago, that guy was very strange.
Mr. Zhu was furious, "Then I will suffer the loss of being dumb! That's the coffin I'm interested in! I'm interested in it! How many years do you and I have left to live? Now that all my coffins have been robbed, you don't care. No matter?”
Zhu Yixuan had a big head, "It's in charge! I'm in charge! Butler, send someone to stop the coffin first, and ask the coffin shop to send a coffin over. I'll go there in person to apologize and explain."
In order to appease his father, he could only do this.
Butler Zhu quickly led seven or eight people in a carriage to chase the coffin.
At this time, the coffin had gone several miles out of the county. When they saw the coffin-carrying team, they rushed forward and surrounded the people without saying a word.
The housekeeper shouted sternly: "Stop! Stop everyone!"
Zheng Ergui and the others put down the coffin inexplicably, and stared at Butler Zhu in confusion, "What's going on?"
Butler Zhu took a step forward and yelled: "This coffin has been our Zhu family's favorite for a long time. The owner of the coffin shop sold it because of his unethical attitude. You guys should carry it back to the city for me!"
"No! We all accepted money from the county magistrate and agreed that we must send the things to Shenjiazhuang intact. The owner of the coffin shop was there at the time, but they didn't say anything about the Zhu family! Besides, we looked at the county magistrate. I paid for it! This thing now belongs to the county magistrate.
No matter how powerful you Zhu family are, you can't take other people's things by force! "Zheng Ergui still had some courage, and immediately started arguing with Butler Zhu.
Butler Zhu's face turned green and white, and he said angrily: "Our eldest young master has already spent double the money to find Shen Xian Cheng, please send the coffin back to me now!"
Everyone couldn't make up their mind for a moment.
Zheng Ergui shook his head stubbornly, "This is a deal between your Zhu family and Mr. Shen. Unless Mr. Shen personally speaks, we can't listen to you, brothers! Leave quickly! We can't afford to pay for delaying the official business!"
Compared to the Zhu family, they are naturally more afraid of officials.
Butler Zhu was so angry that he didn't dare to use force, so he could only lead his people to deliberately stumble them and delay them.
The two sides almost came to blows several times.
Just like that, another group of people from the Zhu family rushed to Moshi Town, pulling another coffin.
Murong Chen was escorted by Shen Yi and others to Shenjiazhuang.
As soon as he entered the village, Murong Chen looked at everything around him curiously, "Is this where the concubine used to live?"
Tang Yu nodded.
Murong Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "This village is nice and quite wealthy. It seems that the concubine's life was also good before. No wonder she always said that she wanted to return to her hometown."
Tang Yu choked and said hesitantly: "Your Highness, in fact, I haven't stayed in Shenjiazhuang for a long time. I heard that this place used to be quite poor, and the concubine's family was even more destitute. Shen Yi became the first to make a fortune, and he and his wife took the villagers with them. Making money together makes life gradually better.”
Murong Chen looked at Shen Yi, "What was the situation of the concubine's family before? I must listen to the truth."
Shen Yi pondered for a moment and said slowly: "The concubine's father's name is Chen Mu, her mother is Huang, and her grandmother is Chen. She has eye disease and cannot see.
The concubine also had many brothers and sisters, and the whole family relied on the income from the fields. It could be said that they were the poorest in the village at that time.
At that time, Xiaguan was doing a small business. She had no parents, no brothers, and she was pregnant. She was really busy with work, so the second aunt of Xiaguan recommended the concubine's mother, Mrs. Huang, to come and help. It was also from that time that the situation of the concubine's mother-in-law gradually improved. Later, the official went into business with the concubine's brother. Now the concubine's mother-in-law's family's wealth is one of the best in the village.
Over the years, Uncle Shen Mu successively built large courtyards for his sons. Because of our meritorious service at the border, the emperor gave us a plaque, and the concubine's eldest brother also built a house specifically for worship. ”
While talking, the group came to Shen Mu's house.
Chen Mu and Shen Dagou entered the house first, pulled Huang Xinghua and said nervously: "The noble person is here, please quickly ask the children to stay away first and don't come out to make trouble. It will be bad if the noble person is alerted."
"What kind of noble man is this?" Huang Xinghua just cried, her mind was buzzing and she couldn't turn around.
Su Tai beside her said hurriedly: "Auntie, listen to uncle and go make arrangements first. I'll go out and take a look."
Chen Mu and Shen Dagou quickly followed Su Tai's pace.
As soon as Su Tai walked out of the yard, her legs were so frightened that she knelt down with a plop, "Your Highness!"
Murong Chen stepped forward and gave her a little support, "Mrs. Shen, there is no need to be polite, just stand up and speak."
Su Tai glanced at Shen Yi and Tang Yu in shock, and asked cautiously: "Your Majesty comes to Lizhou, how sweet is it?"
The latest chapter of this novel was first published on 6@9书#. Please go to Liujiu Book Bar to read it!
Murong Chen shook his head, "I am here for the imperial examination. My concubine is about to give birth and cannot travel far."
Su Tai understood and respectfully led Murong Chen the way.
Chen Mu on the side was stunned.
Shen Dagou quickly pulled his hand and motioned for him to follow.
A group of people entered Mrs. Chen's bedroom.
Su Tai hurriedly stepped forward and gently woke up Mrs. Chen, "Grandma, the person you care about most is here to see you!"
She called Mrs. Chen several times before she responded.
Shen Yi also stepped forward and said: "Grandma, I am Shen Yi, and I have brought my sweet husband to see you."
Mrs. Chen tilted her head weakly and smiled in the direction of the conversation, "Shen Yi! You are an official! Big Dog said you are very busy, why do you have time to go back to the village?"
Seeing that Mrs. Chen was still conscious, Shen Yi quickly helped her up with Shen Dagou.
"Grandma, my sweet husband is here too."
Murong Chen spoke warmly, "Grandma, I'm Murong Chen, I'm here to see you for Tiantian."
When Mrs. Chen heard the unfamiliar voice, she looked startled and said, "Hello, Tiantian, my husband! Okay! How is my Tiantian doing? Is she doing well?"
"Very good! She is very good! She has the final say in everything in the house. My father and mother also love her very much. She often goes back to Yong'an Marquis' Mansion to talk to Yongan Marquis."
Murong Chen spoke in a slow and slow voice, which made Mrs. Chen happy when she heard it.
"Okay, okay! My Tiantian has been obedient, sensible and filial since she was a child. I am worried about her marrying so far away! Now that I hear you say that, I feel relieved!" Mrs. Chen said with a reassuring smile and concern.
Murong Chen felt warm in his heart when he saw it. It's no wonder that Shen Tian always talked about her grandmother and wanted to leave a share of all the good things for her.
Thinking of this, Murong Chen ordered his men to carry the box in, "Grandma, here are the things Tiantian prepared for you, the clothes she made by herself, and the wedding dress she chose for you. She said you have never had one in your life. It’s a bit of a pity to have a decent head and face, but my family has the means but can’t use it, so she’s prepared it for you.”
