Before dinner, Fei Xi arrived at the Shen family. He smelled the fragrance floating under his nose, walked in with a silly smile and said, "Hey, I'm in a hurry to come here. Miss Shen, do you mind giving me a meal?"
Shen Yu'an smiled and called the person in.
Yesterday, Feixi heard from Shen Yu'an that he wanted to let Sanlang take care of him for a period of time.
He ate the food on the table and said to Sanlang, "Mmm, delicious. Sanlang, you have to eat more. If you follow me, there won't be so many delicious foods."
When Feixi said this, Zhao, who was eating at the table, asked with concern: "What? If he follows you, Sanlang won't have any food to eat?"
"Oh, how can I do that? I'll pack some food for you two when you leave later."
Fei Xi waved his hands quickly and said, "No, no, it's just that the food may not be as good if you follow me, but you can still have food."
Chen Yuan listened to Feixi's words and said, "No need to bring it. Sanlang will eat whatever Feixi and the others eat. If he can't even endure this little bit of hardship, then they have suffered so much, how can Sanlang hold on?"
Zhao smiled awkwardly and said, "Then I'd better not take it."
Old Madam Shen looked at Fei Xi and said with concern: "Fei Xi boy, isn't Xiao Che's bookstore able to make a lot of money? Why can't you eat well?"
"Is it because that kid A-Che gives you too little monthly salary?"
“If that’s the case, Grandma Shen will have to talk to him when she sees him again. How can you who help him do things not have enough food to eat?”
Feixi was so shocked that a mouthful of rice got stuck in his throat and he almost choked to death.
He defended Fei Yanche, “No, no, our master gives us a lot of monthly money, but there are many places that need to be spent, and the master is also in a difficult situation. Grandma Shen, please don’t blame the master wrongly.”
If the master knew that the Shen family misunderstood him because of his words, he would definitely be punished with a beating.
Old Mrs. Shen was still worried. The people under Fei Yanche were not getting enough to eat, so she thought Fei Yanche wouldn't be hungry either.
She said, "We still have some extra money at home. An'an, why don't you write to A-Che and ask him to lend us some of the money to help him out in an emergency."
Shen Yuan saw that the topic was getting more and more off-topic. Fei Xi looked regretful and said to Old Lady Shen, "Grandma, just keep the money in our house safe."
Fei Xi looked at Shen Yu'an with gratitude and ate his meal quickly.
After dinner, Sanlang carried his bag and left the Shen family with Shen Yuan and Feixi.
The three of them were walking towards the town, and they were not driving a bullock cart.
Sanlang asked, "Sister, where are we going?"
"Go to town, buy a few servants, and see if there are any shops for rent or sale."
Shen Yu'an turned to ask Fei Xi, and asked bluntly: "Is Fei Yanche short of money?"
Fei Xi originally wanted to say that he didn't need any money, but looking at Shen Yu'an's expression, he could only say, "The master wants to do something big, and the money in his hands is spent like water. In fact, he is a little short of money."
"But it's really only a little, Miss Shen. Our master is not poor, but all his property is left in the general's mansion on the border and cannot be taken out. The general's mansion is now occupied by someone else, and I don't know how much money and other things will be left in it by then."
Shen Yuan asked, "Who has taken over the magpie's nest?"
Fei Xi snorted, "They are the Fourth Prince's in-laws. The general currently stationed at the border is from their family. However, he is not even a general. He only got his position thanks to the Fourth Prince and Imperial Concubine Rong."
