Chapter 41 Aunt

After Xu Qing's matter was resolved, Shen Shixu called the waiter in to start ordering dishes. After ordering dozens of dishes, Shen Shixu looked at the waiter with a trace of worry between his eyebrows and asked: "Are there fewer customers in your Tianxiang Tower? I remember that the hall was full when I came here the first two times, but today it is even half empty."

This waiter was still the waiter who had a good relationship with Shen Shixu. Hearing what Shen Shixu said, he sighed and said, "Sir, you have a good eye. There are many fewer customers. There is a new restaurant opened on Xiping Street, called Shili Renjia.

All our guests went there. We heard that the food there was delicious and not as expensive as ours. Also, the decoration of that restaurant was very charming, which attracted many talented and handsome men there.

Our business has been affected. Now the customers who come are our old customers. The boss is very worried. If the loss of customers continues, I am afraid that it will not be long before Tianxianglou will close. ”

The waiter sighed again when he said this. If Tianxianglou closed down, he would have to find another way to make a living, but it was very difficult to find a job that could support a family these days.

Shen Shixu looked at the sad look on the waiter's face and had no good solution, so he just gave the waiter a few dozen more copper coins when tipping him.

They ordered the dishes here, and Shen Zexi also came. He went to the nursing home today, looked around for most of the day, and picked out a dozen that he was satisfied with.

After he arrived, Shen Shixu told him about hiring Xu Qing to be the cook.

Shen Zexi had no objection to this, “It’s up to you to decide, but this girl looks so young, is her cooking so good? Is it a family inheritance?”

"No, no one in my family does this, I researched it myself."

Hearing Xu Qing’s answer, Shen Zexi was quite impressed with this little girl, “Then you are quite amazing, by the way, I heard an interesting news on the way here just now.

Something happened in the Yongxing Marquis's Mansion. Their family was fooled and raised someone else's daughter for more than ten years. That’s not all. After they found their biological daughter, instead of trying to make amends and love her, they actually treated her harshly.

Instead, he doted on the adopted daughter who had taken his daughter's place for more than ten years, and did not even punish the person who swapped the children. He was truly kind-hearted. ”

Shen Zexi's words were very kind and full of irony.

This is not kindness at all, this is clearly a case of poor brains.

Xu Qing was somewhat curious about how this matter was spread out, not many people knew about it, and everyone in this private room knew about it except Shen Zexi.

Apart from them, only the Yongxing Earl's Mansion and Yan Weixuan's family knew about it. Those two families would never leak this matter, so how did this matter get out?

Shen Shixu probably knew who it was. He put down the teacup in his hand and said calmly: "The person who broke the news should be the married sister of Yongxing Bo!"

Shen Zexi looked at Shen Shixu in shock, “Brother, how did you know?”

After asking, Shen Zexi finally realized that with 011 around, there was nothing his brother didn't know!

"Guess!"

Xu Qing thought for a while and finally realized, yes, there was no one else except her aunt.

"It was the married lady. She went back to the Yongxing Marquis's residence today to visit his family and take his niece, who had suffered for many years, to stay with her for a few days.

It seemed that she wanted to take her niece to attend Princess Fuhui's flower-viewing banquet and pick a suitable husband for her niece.

The real daughter of the Yongxing Marquis's Mansion must be eighteen years old this year, but the Yongxing Marquis's Mansion has no intention of making any plans for the real daughter.

The aunt became anxious, fearing that if she delayed her niece's life, she would become an old spinster and not be considered a good family. So she shamelessly made plans on her own.

Who knew that this time when he returned, he would run into Earl Yongxing and his wife telling the real daughter that she wanted to break off the engagement with Earl Yongxing's family.

The young lady was so furious when she heard this that she almost asked her husband to beat her own brother to death.

I heard from others that two of Earl Yongxing's ribs were broken, and people from Earl Yongxing's mansion came out in a hurry to find a doctor!

And the fake daughter didn't get away with it either. The aunt did it herself. I heard that she scratched the fake daughter's face so badly that she will probably be left with scars. ”

After Xu Qing heard the news brought by Shen Zexi, she felt it was incredible and a little puzzled. She still had a good impression of this aunt.

Although this aunt also lived in the capital, she seldom visited the Yongxing Marquis's Mansion, but she would send her gifts every now and then.

They are all things girls like, hairpins, cosmetics, and fashionable clothes.

However, she only took a look at these things, and they would soon be taken away by Xu Zhen with various excuses.

She went to tell the wife of the Earl of Yongxing, but all she got was a scolding.

In the entire Yongxing Marquis's Mansion, the only one who treated her well was her aunt who had married out. After the breakup of the engagement, she actually thought about whether she should go to her aunt for help. She didn't know whether her aunt was willing to take her in. But later she thought about it and decided not to!

Her aunt has her own family. Even if she is willing to take her in, what about her uncle and cousin? Will they be willing?

So after much deliberation, Xu Qing did not choose to join Xu Jingshi.

But she didn't expect that Xu Qing didn't go to Xu Jingshi, but Xu Jingshi did so much for her.

"I didn't want to cause trouble for my aunt, but I didn't expect she did so much for me."

Xu Qing's words made Shen Zexi spit out a mouthful of tea. He didn't expect that this young girl was actually one of the protagonists in True and False Daughters.

Jiang Bin was not surprised to hear what Xu Jingshi had done, and told everyone about an incident that happened in his early years.

“Although Xu Jingshi and Yongxing Bo are blood siblings, their relationship is not good. To be honest, they still have a grudge against each other.

The title of Earl of Yongxing was passed down from his ancestors and was not earned by him himself. He had no special abilities and just liked to take shortcuts.

I heard from my mother that twenty years ago, there were two beauties in the capital who were both talented and beautiful and famous throughout the city. One of them was Xu Jingshi.

For the sake of his career, Earl Yongxing married Xu Jingshi to Sun Xiushan, the then General of the Cavalry, who is now the commander of the Imperial Guards.

Sun Xiushan was born in a poor family. He fought hard on the battlefield for everything he had. In the eyes of many people, he was already very powerful and good.

But there are still some people who think that he is just a reckless man. So when the news of these two people getting married spread, everyone scolded Earl Yongxing, saying that he sold his own sister for his official career.

It is said that Xu Jingshi was unwilling to marry Sun Xiushan at first, and hanged herself on the wedding day. She was finally rescued and stuffed into the bridal sedan.

Fortunately, Sun Xiushan is a good person. All matters in the mansion are decided by Xu Jingshi. He does not take concubines or maids, and does not go to brothels.

The two people gradually developed feelings for each other. ”
