Tang Youyou looked at the person in front of her, and always felt that something was wrong. Why was his look full of temptation and hostility?
"Sister-in-law, do you have anything important to do today?"
Shen Yue Niang's eyes were a little dull, and she was complaining in her heart: How stupid! I, a wife, actually came to the home of someone who wants to be his concubine. Isn't this lowering my status?
"Sister-in-law? Sister-in-law?"
Cui'er, the maid beside her, shook her and she came to her senses.
"Sister, to be honest, today, I was asked by someone to act as a matchmaker and wanted to ask for your opinion!"
Tang Youyou laughed in silence, thinking it was Master Jin again.
"Ahem... Sister-in-law, I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but I have no intention of remarrying! I'm afraid I'll disappoint your kindness!"
Shen Yue Niang bit her lip and said, "Why? It's not easy for a woman like you to take care of so many children..."
"Sister-in-law, to be honest, men have always had three wives and four concubines. I'm not one for jealousy!
Besides, I am no longer suitable for having children at my age. If I go to someone else's house, I will just help educate their children. What about my own children?"
"What do you think I'm after? I might even have to depend on my in-laws for my life. I'm terrified just thinking about that kind of life where I never leave the house! I'm fine the way I am now!"
"My children are obedient and filial, and I'm the head of the household. The only thing I need is to make money. But, for me, that's a piece of cake! So..."
She didn't say anything else, as she had made her point very clear.
Shen Yueniang's heart was filled with shock and astonishment: How could she be so arrogant? Which woman dared not to follow the Three Obediences and Four Virtues?
"Sister, have you never thought of relying on a man?"
Tang Youyou slowly shook her head, "Sister-in-law, the human heart is unpredictable. Aren't there enough Chen Shimei in this world? I am actually getting a divorce, but he is already dead in my heart."
"He abandoned his wife and children for his own future, and even tried to demote his wife to a concubine. It's truly shameful! He used to be an honest man, so I'm afraid of the ropes after being bitten by a snake once!"
"For the sake of my children and myself, I will never marry again in this life!"
Shen Yue Niang became even more anxious and confused. How could this happen?
Then isn’t wealth and honor just unrequited love?
Tang Youyou waved to Lin Huahua beside her, "Huahua, ask Mrs. Tang to cook more food!"
Then he reminded her again, "Make more mushrooms!"
Turning around, I found Shen Yueniang still in a trance, "Sister-in-law, let's eat here today. Brother Fugui said that you like to eat mushrooms. Don't be polite today!"
"He...he told you all this?" She was extremely surprised. Why did this idiot tell you everything?
"Yes, Brother Fugui said that you and your aunt like to eat mushrooms, and he was planning to buy the recipe, but he never thought that Master Jin would snatch it away, haha..."
Shen Yue Niang suddenly felt something was strange.
At this moment, Yu brought some pickled vegetables.
Seeing Tang Youyou leave, Xiao Cui beside her whispered, "Madam, I see that Madam Tang is cheerful and doesn't seem like that kind of person. Could there be any misunderstanding? Please don't bring things up, to avoid embarrassment!"
Shen Yue Niang nodded slightly, "Go and get the gift I prepared first!"
After some conversation, she had some understanding of Tang Youyou. She came in a hurry and left in a hurry.
Jia Fugui was lying on the bed eating, with a very funny expression.
"Ahem... Let me do it!"
Shen Yue Niang wanted to take the bowl from the concubine, but she ignored her.
"Sister... don't you dislike the master's slovenly appearance? Let me take care of him. After all, you are a delicate person, so how can you..."
Before he could finish his words, he was slapped in the face.
"Master... Look at my sister. She's getting more and more irritable now. She can scold me in front of you at will. The children are all suffering! Wuwuwu..."
Jia Fugui felt overwhelmed and turned away, not wanting to pay any attention to the two men.
Shen Yue Niang grabbed her and said, "I'm a businessman, and you dare to criticize me? Do you believe that I will sell you out today..."
She was furious. How dare this man offend her in front of the master? Who knows what he would say to her in private?
"Wuwuwu... Madam, you don't have the final say in the Jia Mansion! Master, you have to make the decision for me. I have been doing my duty for so many years..."
Jia Fugui was going crazy, "Get out...get out of here!"
Cui'er, who was standing by, quickly pulled the concubine out, leaving Shen Yueniang alone.
She was a little embarrassed, "Master, I'm sorry, I was wrong!"
"Humph...what's your fault? It's me...I'm blind!"
The more I think about it, the angrier I get: They say a friend in need is a friend indeed. He hasn't come to see me in the past few days, how heartless he is.
"Master, I just went to Xiangyang Village!"
"What? If you think it's not embarrassing enough, why did you go there?"
"Master, I've made some inquiries today, and Madam Tang is indeed a good person. Tell me the truth, do you really like her? Even if... even if you can be her as a co-wife!"
Now it seems that this may be the best solution.
Jia Fugui rolled his eyes. "Mother Shen Yue, am I so unbearable in your heart? Am I some kind of lecher? Bah... Miss Tang is not good-looking either, what do you think I want?"
"He's quite resourceful, clever, and generous. When he came back, he even brought me a basket of mushrooms!"
Jia Fugui suddenly burst out laughing, "Tsk tsk... you were bribed with just a basket of mushrooms?"
Shen Yueniang looked astonished, "Master, I'm not joking, but you have to promise me that you won't give her any of this property in the future. She said she can earn money on her own and doesn't rely on men!"
Jia Fugui sighed and suddenly felt that his wife's innocence was lovely.
"Yue Niang, let me reiterate, my relationship with Sister Tang is innocent. I simply admire her, do you understand? She's not an ordinary person. Our friendship now will greatly benefit the children's future!"
Shen Yue Niang still didn't believe it.
Jia Fugui said earnestly, "Ruoxue is already fifteen, and my three sons are all studying. I can't study well, so I can only hope that my sons can change their family background.
But among the four classes of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants are ranked last. Yue Niang, you must understand my painstaking efforts! "
"Master Li's eldest son, though not very intelligent, is a loyal and honest man. I want to marry Ruoxue to him!"
Shen Yueniang was even more astonished. "Master, why are you so sure that Master Li will pass the exam? The stakes are a bit too high..."
Jia Fugui suddenly thought of something, "You won't agree to Zhang Dahu, will you? His son is uneducated and has no future."
Seeing that the other party didn't say anything, he gritted his teeth and said, "Today, I'm putting my words here. You are not allowed to interfere in Ruoxue's marriage. I have my own ideas!"
Shen Yueniang muttered softly, “I just agreed on the surface, but I didn’t change my birth date!”
At this time, the two old men came into the house and heard these words, and were angry at the man for not fighting back.
"Yue Niang, you are confused. Let's not talk about what kind of person his son is. Look at what Zhang Dahu did. He beat Fugui like this, and you still want to become his in-laws? You wish!"
