514: The Thoughts of Each Family

At this time, the people from the first house also got off the carriage, walked over to see Shen Ziping's miserable appearance, they all wanted to laugh, but had to hold it back, their faces were stiff and they all looked very serious.

Sanlang also jumped off the carriage at this time. Seeing Dalang and Erlang slapping their faces, he said unhappily, "Hey! My dad has fallen down like this, and you guys don't even say a few words of comfort. Who are you trying to show off to by slapping your faces?"

"How can we comfort him? If you good sons hadn't been making trouble, Third Uncle wouldn't be like this. If he can't comfort his own sons, how can we do that?"

Erlang was more sharp-tongued and immediately glared at Sanlang and retorted.

Dalang pulled Erlang and said, "Don't pay attention to him. Be careful that if something happens again, he will say that it was you who made him angry. That would be so worthless."

Sun said unhappily, "Da Lang, are you cursing us? What do you mean by something bad will happen later? We are almost in the capital, what else can happen?"

When Wang heard Sun talking about her son, she stopped pretending to be silent and said coldly, "No one cursed you. You have trouble every day, how can you curse? I can see the city gate, and you can still quarrel and fall off the carriage. Do you still need someone to curse? I think our family is unlucky. I have to go to see my parents with you later. I don't know how my third brother's ugly face will attract people's attention! Otherwise, let's go separately."

"Sister-in-law, we're about to meet our parents, why should we be divided? You're the eldest sister-in-law, don't argue with us younger brothers and sisters, let's hurry up and get on the road, I'm fine."

Shen Ziping said immediately that he didn't want to go separately. When his parents saw his face and saw that he didn't go with the eldest wife, as long as the eldest wife asked what was going on, his parents would definitely look down on them even more, and they would have to send them back home. If they went with the eldest wife, maybe they could still fool them. Maybe they could say that it was their eldest brother who didn't take good care of him. If he was a little more shameless, he could stay in the capital.

Shen Zifu said, "Why don't you let Sanlang drive the car, and you go in to rest. Don't let the wound get exposed to the wind."

Shen Ziping responded immediately and got into the car quickly.

Wang Shi saw this and knew that they couldn't leave separately. She could only call Dalang, Erlang and Shen Zifu to go back, and the whole family got on the carriage.

"His father, look at you. I almost said that I would separate from them just now, why are you saying that? It's really infuriating to walk this journey with them." Wang said angrily.

Shen Zifu said, "We're almost in the capital, so forget it. When your parents ask you what's wrong with his face, just tell them. I won't stop you, okay? Don't be angry."

"You said it, so don't cover it up for your good brothers! I don't ask for any great credit, I just don't want to be schemed against."

Wang said, and then added: "His father. The third branch wants to stay in the capital this time. If they haven't split up, it's possible for them to stay. We have split up, and I don't expect us to benefit much. Now we are living well in Hebian Village, but if the capital is really good, we should find a way to let our son stay here for two years, so that he can at least gain some experience when he returns. Look at that brother Shitou, he has only been a servant for a few years. How knowledgeable he is!"

To put it bluntly, Wang wanted her sons to stay with Shen Ziju. The family could make money, but could it make as much as the capital? Moreover, Shen Ziju was a seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister. He was a low-ranking official now, but he would be promoted in the future. By then, his two sons would have been with him for a long time, but he still wouldn't use them!

Shen Zifu said: "The children are still young. It's better for them to stay at home instead of suffering away from home."

Dalang said, "Mother, I miss my uncle and aunt at home. They are so capable. I want to work with them. My aunt said that she wants me to be the shopkeeper in the future!"

Erlang also said, "Fourth Aunt is so smart, even smarter than my uncle. My uncle knows martial arts, and I want to learn from him! I don't want to stay in the capital either. Mom, aren't you afraid that after we stay with my uncle, Grandpa will let you move back home? I don't want to live the same life as before. And Fourth Aunt also said that I should be the shopkeeper. She said that she will open many shops in the future and will need many people!"

Wang was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then asked, "Did your fourth aunt really say that she wants you to be the shopkeepers?"

Dalang and Erlang both nodded.

Shen Zifu said: "My fourth brother and his wife are thinking about us, so you don't have to worry about your sons."

Wang immediately felt even more grateful to Su Zhi. She thought this sister-in-law was a really good person. She saved her daughter, provided work for her family, and even wanted to let her two sons be the shopkeepers. It was really hard to find such a good sister-in-law. However, there was still one thing that made her feel a little bit uncomfortable.

"Then you must work hard in the future. However, during the days when Fourth Brother and his wife were not around, the vermicelli was still being made. I saw that Li Shi seemed to go there every day and add something. I think it was the recipe for vermicelli. Fourth Brother and his wife gave the recipe to him instead of us. They are closer to them. You must work harder in the future!"

Wang thought that they were all members of the Shen family, and such important matters for the fourth brother should be handed over to them.

Shen Zifu said, "Brother Li Shi is more reliable. What he brought was not the recipe, but some things that needed to be added. He didn't even know what they were. Fourth brother and his wife knew that he was a good person, so they gave it to him. Besides, he also had a share of the vermicelli. If not him, who else should they give it to? Don't misunderstand Fourth brother and his wife."

Dalang and Erlang also said so. They are not partners of Fourth Uncle and his friends, so how can they have access to such important things?

Wang Shi also thought it made sense. She regretted that she had not been the best to Su Zhi. If she had been closer to her, wouldn't they be partners with the first wife now? Now the second wife was closer to them than the fourth wife. She thought that when she went to the capital to see Su Zhi this time, she must get closer to her. Wasn't she pregnant? She should take better care of her.

In this way, the two branches of the Shen family entered the city with different thoughts. They were soon dazzled by the prosperity of the capital. After asking around for a long time, they finally found the door of Shen Ziju's home.

Looking at the gatehouse in front of them, people from both families were very excited. This was their brothers' home in the capital, an official residence!

Shen Zifu's family now had a concierge. When he saw the two carriages covered in dust and the driver was dressed in a rustic manner, he knew that they had come from afar. However, he did not dare to look down on them. They knew that their father, a Hanlin scholar, was born in the countryside of Beijing, so they might be relatives. As expected, when the concierge heard Shen Zifu's identity, he immediately put on a smile and shouted to the courtyard, asking them to pass the message in.

"Hurry up and tell the old lady, the old lady, the master and the young lady that the eldest and third masters are here!"

There were footsteps in the yard.

When the people in the third room heard the doorman's greetings, their eyes immediately lit up, thinking that their own family now also had a master, a mistress, and a young lady! (
