Not only did Chen Xin not feel aggrieved, he also felt very proud.
The best thing is that he can marry his sweetheart.
Not to mention marrying into the wife's family, even being a servant is fine!
Liu Shuyue: [I don't know about this... They did a lot of things quietly.]
"So should I renovate my house too? Luming's yard is a bit small, isn't it? She'll need space after she has a baby. Can we demolish the chicken coop and make a small house for her?"
Zhou Yunshen: Does she think our family is so poor? We don't even have a vacant lot to build a yard?
Huahua: [Our home is big enough, you don't have to worry.]
Chen Xin's parents didn't have much of an issue with their son marrying into a family, but they felt he should still receive a betrothal gift. What man would marry without giving a betrothal gift?
But the two of them only managed to come up with seven or eight thousand taels, which felt still not enough. Madam Shen wanted to ask her family for some money. Coincidentally, two days ago, while sorting out clothes for the changing season, she discovered that one of Mr. Shen's underwear had come undone. She took it apart and took a look. Guess what she saw?
Men's underwear either hides portraits of beautiful women or their private money.
Huahua: [You guessed right! Fifty and one hundred taels of silver notes were sewn full of clothes. Actually, Lord Shen doesn't have any other hobbies except listening to Kunqu opera and fishing. He saved over thirty years, including his own annual New Year's money, for a little over three thousand taels of silver, all for listening to Kunqu opera and fishing.]
But Madam Shen hated his fishing the most. Every time he worked so hard, he would only catch two small fish. Even feeding the cat was frowned upon. So, she was so angry that she beat Master Shen for two days.
Chen Xin lives at home every day and has never heard the sound of his mother beating anyone.
How is that possible?
Huahua: [Mrs. Shen is also a bitch. She's afraid that Lao Deng will make too much noise, and that he'll appear before the court with a bruised face and face, and people will think she's a shrew. So she gags Lao Deng and makes him kneel on the washboard and sing Kunqu opera.]
Chen Xin suddenly realized.
No wonder he had been dreaming these past two days. He always felt like there were ghosts crying in his dreams, but it also seemed very familiar. It must be his father’s voice that entered his dreams!
He had heard his father humming Kunqu opera, which was no different from the howling of ghosts and wolves!
Liu Shuyue: [Ultimately, it's because their men don't give them enough sense of security, which is why they're wary of them hiding their own private funds. Look, I never check my husband's private funds.]
Huahua: [It's no use checking. The villain himself doesn't even remember how much assets he has. It's strange you can't find out!]
Zhou Yunshen really seemed to have forgotten how much money his family had.
As long as it’s enough, it’s fine.
The two boys of the Shen family didn't know how to face their future father-in-law at this moment.
One is the emperor, the other is a killing god who is as rich as a country.
It seems like I'm climbing up the social ladder.
But why is it so comfortable to climb this high branch...
"Xin'er, where's your damn dad?"
Mrs. Shen came in hurriedly, holding a branch in her hand.
She was so angry that her face turned red and she looked like she wanted to kill someone.
Chen Xin asked in confusion, "I didn't see Daddy, what happened to Mommy?"
"Nothing, I just want to make a dish and invite him to taste it."
Liu Shuyue: [Eating braised meat on sticks? What did Lord Shen do to make Madam so angry?]
Huahua: [Mrs. Shen forbade him from fishing, so he broke his fishing rod. Old Deng somehow found a few sticks in the woodshed and polished them into a fishing rod. He went fishing early this morning by climbing over the wall.]
[It's probably around three o'clock.]
So early!
Before she even started dreaming, Lord Shen went fishing without any hesitation.
As expected, in front of hobbies, all difficulties are nothing.
Huahua: [Lord Shen is also a fascinating person. While most places to fish are small rivers and ponds, he prefers to go to other people's farms. He especially loves to catch the fish they raise, and he's especially happy if they have koi or goldfish.]
[Once, Old Man Bai had just bought a few koi fish. Because the pond hadn't been repaired yet, he temporarily kept them at someone else's house.]
[When Lord Shen found out, he disguised himself as a servant and sneaked into other people's homes to pick up koi.]
Liu Shuyue: [Doesn't the Shen family have a lot of koi?]
Huahua: [No, he just likes fishing, but he really, really hates eating fish. He usually releases all the ones he catches. In his words, "Koi are so cute, how can they be on the table!"]
It is indeed beautiful, but it is indeed unpalatable.
I heard that even the black bear demon doesn’t eat koi, so it’s obviously not edible.
When Mrs. Shen heard this, she became even angrier.
You old thing, you dare to do such sneaky things all day long. Not only do you bring shame to other people's homes, but what's even more infuriating is that you don't even bring home the fish after you catch them.
If he had brought back more, the pond might be full of koi by now, and he could sell some to make some pocket money for his son.
"Old man, how could I have been so blind to fall for such a disgraceful and worthless thing!"
"Don't be angry, Mom. Dad might have some unspeakable secrets that's why he's so extreme."
Huahua: [He has a secret that he cannot explain. Fish friends are as important as the sky. He and his fish friends have made an agreement and he will definitely not cheat on it.]
[One good thing about Lord Shen is that he treats all fish lovers equally, regardless of wealth or poverty. However, this also makes him prone to being manipulated.]
[That fishing friend was someone he met two years ago. The other person didn't like fishing at all and only wanted to be close to him.]
[At first, I just wanted to use Lord Shen to make friends with some wealthy officials and marry my daughter off to them. This year, his son got engaged to our Lu Ming, and he started to have more devious intentions. Old Bi Deng has already asked his daughter to be Shen Xin's maid and come with her to the Zhou family. Then he'll see who's more suitable and stick with him.]
[The day before yesterday, they hired a retired prostitute for their daughter to teach her some tricks so she can easily hook up with the right guy.]
【Guess who they are talking about as a suitable candidate? 】
Although Zhou Shiye can get engaged, it will take another two years before he reaches marriageable age. He and Min'er are in a good relationship now, so it might not be a good idea to do it.
It's even more impossible for Zhou Sesheng. He is still so young. If a woman takes off all her clothes and stands in front of him, not only will he not be able to seduce her, but he will also be kicked into the water.
That only leaves...
Liu Shuyue slowly turned her head and looked at Zhou Yunshen with eyes that were filled with indescribable emotions.
Huahua: [Congratulations, you got it right!]
[From your pregnancy to delivery, you also had to stay in bed and nurse... there was a long window of time. Zhou Yunshen didn't have any concubines, so it was a good opportunity for her.]
Liu Shuyue bit her lower lip, feeling very uncomfortable.
Zhou Yunshen felt the pain of disaster coming from the sky.
He is just a little richer, a little more powerful, and a little more handsome, so why do all the Tom, Dick, and Harry start to covet him?
Huahua suddenly shouted: [Host, look, she's here! It's that girl.]
A little girl in a green skirt came over with tea and snacks in her hand.
The first thing Liu Shuyue saw was her slender jade feet, then her green skirt and willow waist.
