As soon as the carriage stopped at the gate of the Shen Mansion, Madam Shen came to greet it.
"Oh, my Bei'er, how are you?"
Second Shen got out of the car first, walked up to Madam Shen, and whispered, "Mom, there are a lot of people at the door, please pay attention, the third brother is fine, let him enter the house first."
Mrs. Shen had no choice but to control her emotions, nodded in agreement, and stood aside waiting.
Then, Shen Lao San half covered his mouth with his sleeve, jumped out of the car, and entered the mansion first.
Mrs. Shen was about to follow in immediately, but she happened to see Zhang Xinyue getting off the car. Her outfit naturally attracted her attention.
"Xinyue? What are you doing...?"
Liu Wanyun stepped forward and took her arm, "Aunt, let's go into the mansion first and talk later! Third brother has been so rude today!"
Mrs. Shen looked at her doubtfully. What mess had her son made this time?
After returning home, Shen Laosan and Zhang Xinyue naturally went back to the room to change clothes first. Doctor Xie happened to come and treated Shen Laosan's wound and prescribed a prescription for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.
After a flurry of activity, after Doctor Xie had left and the extra servants had been sent away, Madam Shen finally frowned and asked what had happened.
"Tell me! What's going on?"
Liu Wanyun secretly grabbed Zhang Xinyue's thigh. Seeing her gritting her teeth and her eyes reddening, she began to complain, "Aunt, you have to make the decision for me. If Shen Chaobei doesn't give me an explanation for this matter, I...I will go back to my parents' home..."
Shen Lao San was applying a hard-boiled egg to his cheeks, but when he heard this, he got anxious and stopped applying the egg. He came close to Zhang Xinyue and said, "Hey, my lady, why are you talking about going back to your parents' home again?"
"They're just talking nonsense. There's no such thing at all. If you don't believe me, ask my eldest and second brothers."
He looked at his two brothers eagerly, hoping that they would testify for him!
But both Mr. Shen and Mr. Shen were being stared at closely by their wives. They dared not speak or make any expression, for fear that they would be implicated if they were not careful.
Madam Shen looked at her three sons, who looked so cowardly, and said unhappily, "Xinyue, tell me, what's going on?"
"Chen Chaobei...Chen Chaobei...He went to Wangyue Pavilion to listen to an opera and even asked a young man to accompany him..."
Shen Laosan's eyes widened. How could his wife jump to such a hasty conclusion just based on someone else's joke?
Why are you looking for a young prostitute? Oh my God, he doesn’t like this kind of thing. The young lady smells so good!
Besides, there was no young prostitute here today. Wasn’t she the one who was mistakenly identified as the young prostitute?
When Shen Lao San was talking to his brothers in the car, he didn't mention this.
When Zhang Xinyue said this, not only Mrs. Shen showed a look of surprise, but his two brothers also looked surprised!
No! Brother, you!
Take your wife and go find the young waiter?
Are you tired of living?
Are there people who humiliate others like this?
The two of them looked at Shen Lao San with a look of wishing them well!
Madam Shen spat, "Don't talk nonsense, what a mess, the Moon Viewing Pavilion is a teahouse, there is no such thing as a little, little waiter..."
Liu Wanyun and Guan Xiaoyu couldn't help it and laughed silently with their heads down.
"Anyway, this is what I saw with my own eyes and heard with my own ears! This Shen Chaobei is simply... simply... too unbearable... I can't live a good life like this..."
Zhang Xinyue wiped her eyes, her shoulders twitching, looking like a victim.
After she cried, the focus of the matter shifted. It was all Shen Lao San's fault. No one cared that she had gone along with them. They even thought that she was disguising herself as a man in order to catch Shen Lao San!
Even when Third Shen was injured, Madam Shen felt that his son deserved it! Who told her to make her daughter-in-law angry!
"My dear, that's not the case. You really misunderstood! Those people are all my brothers. There's no such thing as a prostitute! You've wronged me!"
Shen Lao San was so anxious that he almost knelt down!
He looked at his brothers and pleaded, "Big Brother, Second Brother, please speak up! When has Wangyue Pavilion, a place for drinking tea, ever had any young prostitutes? The opera singers there are all serious ones!"
Liu Wanyun put away the smile on her face, raised her head, and asked Boss Shen seriously, "Brother Dong, tell me, is that place legitimate? I believe you, but you have to tell the truth!"
Boss Shen coughed and said solemnly, "Yeah! I've been there a few times, but I've never seen these messy people!"
Guan Xiaoyu also looked at Shen Laoer, "You say!"
After receiving the order, Shen Lao Er dared to speak, "I've been there less often, but I haven't seen any messy people!"
The cautious look on the faces of these two people was inexplicably funny.
It’s as if the Moon-Watching Pavilion has now become a bad name, and people are afraid of being associated with it.
Mrs. Shen breathed a sigh of relief and consoled her, "Xinyue, don't cry. Look, my elder brother and second brother have both said that there is nothing like what you said there. You must have misheard..."
Zhang Xinyue sobbed and slowly stopped crying, but the look in Shen Lao San's eyes was still full of resentment...
"My lady, please believe me..."
Liu Wanyun and Guan Xiaoyu pretended to comfort them again, and then everyone left.
Before leaving, Mrs. Shen remembered to ask, "Bei'er, who did you fight with? What was it about?"
Shen Chaobei didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he just made up an excuse, "Xie Bufan from the Xie Dianshi family, that kid is really mean! We had a disagreement and hit each other a few times, it's no big deal!"
Xie Dianshi? Xie Bufan?
Mrs. Shen remembered this child, who was not much younger than her own son. She didn't know much about his personality. She occasionally heard a few words about him, and most of them were not good things.
This time I also fought with Chaobei...
She still remembered that at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, Madam Xie was quite interested in Zhaodi and seemed to want her to be his wife.
The wife of the son of the regent is a good destination.
If Zhaodi really got married, the relationship between the Shen family and the important officials of the county government would be even closer.
There is no better marriage than for a concubine's daughter to become the legal wife of a historian...
However, if Mr. Xie is too unreliable, then if Zhaodi marries him, her life will probably be...
Mrs. Shen thought that she should ask Aunt Sun and Zhaodi what they thought!
After leaving Beiyuan, Madam Shen went to the small courtyard where Aunt Sun lived.
Liu Wanyun and Guan Xiaoyu also returned to their own courtyards with their respective men.
After everyone left, only Shen Laosan and Zhang Xinyue were left in the room. Shen Laosan stared at his wife for a long time and said quietly, "Wife, the way you pretended to cry just now was so fake!"
Seeing that she had been exposed, Zhang Xinyue became a little annoyed. "Let me ask you, besides Wangyue Pavilion, where else do you and your friends go? Have you ever found any bad company?"
