Chapter 565: Shen Family Relationship
Zhu Suisui looked back and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
One of them was someone I had met before.
It was the same unruly sister I met at the black market in Nanshi last time.
What was different from the time in Nanshi was that Shen Aoer was dressed much more fashionably this time, and there stood beside her a beautiful and elegant woman with an outstanding temperament.
Zhu Suisui guessed that this was Shen Aoer's mother.
Zhu Suisui had learned about the Shen family's relationships from Xie Wenlun, and found that the Shen family's relationships were even more complicated than the Xie family's.
In addition to his original wife, Shen Jingtong also married a third concubine. The second and third wives were protected by the Marriage Law, but the fourth wife was married after the Marriage Law was amended. So although outsiders called her the fourth concubine, in name only, she was not as important as the previous wives.
The first wife was of similar age to Shen Jingtong. She moved to Hong Kong Island with her family in her early years, but she was always in poor health and was said to have no children. However, the Shen family missed the original wife's friendship and always took good care of her. Later, Shen Jingtong married a second concubine, who gave birth to a son and two daughters. A few years later, Shen Jingtong married a third concubine. The funny thing is that the third concubine used to be a nurse who took care of the original wife. Somehow, the two of them became lovers.
When the third wife came in, she was already pregnant. She also gave birth to a son and a daughter for Shen Jingtong.
As for the fourth wife, she came into the family eight years ago and gave birth to a daughter. According to Xie Wenlun, the fourth wife still wants to have a son and has been contacting doctors abroad.
After all this, Zhu Suisui could only sigh.
I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse to be born in such a family.
The Shen family is quite long-lived. It is said that the person who holds power now is not entirely Shen Jingtong, but Shen Jingtong's father, Shen Jinghuan. The old man is already in his nineties, but still holds power.
Compared to Shen Jingtong's amorous nature, his father Shen Jinghuan is different. Until now, he still has only his original wife, the old lady, who only gave birth to Shen Jingtong. The old lady's health is not very good. She has been fasting and worshiping Buddha all year round, and doesn't pay attention to what is happening outside the window.
Zhu Sui guessed that the two people seen here now should be from the third room based on their age.
She didn't really want to confront anyone. After all, she was here to investigate, so it was best to keep a low profile.
Think of this.
Zhu Suisui didn't look at it for long, but took Wu Wenrou directly to the third floor.
When Ge Hanzhi raised his eyes, he saw Zhu Suisui's back and was shocked.
Shen Ao'er, who was choosing jewelry, noticed her mother's change of mood and looked at Ge Hanzhi in confusion, "What's wrong, Mommy?"
Ge Hanzhi took another look but didn't see anything, so he naturally thought he was thinking too much.
She shook her head. "Nothing. Maybe I'm a little tired today."
"Mommy, you're already tired after just starting to pick out jewelry." Shen Ao'er said coquettishly, "The jewelry exhibition will start soon. My brother finally managed to get me this opportunity. I also want to build a good career and let Daddy and Grandpa see my ability. If I can make a big splash at this jewelry exhibition and be selected as the vice chairman of the board of directors in the second half of the year, Daddy will definitely be happy and Grandpa will be proud of me."
Thinking of this, Shen Aoer was eager to prove herself.
She didn't believe that she didn't have the ability. Old Mrs. Shen was still the chairman of the jewelry board. She felt that she should seize this opportunity. Once the old lady saw her ability, how could others compete with her!
