After living in the countryside, Mr. Shen's temper is not as hot as before.
He looked at Shen Yingyue and said gently, "Yingyue, is it because you were too rude to Zhou Yubai? You didn't even tell him who you were when you first met him, but started to criticize him directly. He is not someone who is easy to bully, so he was naturally rude to you."
"Why should he be rude to me? He is just a peasant who was lucky enough to join the army and made some achievements, but they are just small. I have ten thousand ways to make him retire." Shen Yingyue said angrily.
"Dad, what's wrong with you now? You don't pamper me like before, and you're even speaking for outsiders."
"I am just mad at Zhou Yubai now, and I want to punish him."
Old Lady Shen immediately agreed, "But what use can a rural son-in-law be to our family? He is not Gu Qichuan. Even if he is married to A Li now, what does it matter?"
"Everyone knows that Ah-Li's favorite person is Qi Chuan. Their marriage may not last long, but it's hard to divorce now that they have a child. When Ah-Li gets settled in Beijing and meets Qi Chuan more often, we never know what will happen in the future."
Mr. Shen has different ideas from them.
"Zhou Yubai is now the deputy commander. He was once a top soldier and is very capable now. Who knows where he will rise in the future? You should take a long-term view. You should not mess with people like him."
"Why shouldn't I provoke him? Our Shen family is now in its heyday, and my brother is a famous scientist. Who wouldn't bow down to a member of our Shen family? Why should I be bullied by a country son-in-law?"
"I don't care. Mom and Dad, you have to help me vent my anger. If you don't, I will go home to find Xinmin."
"It's just a small matter. Don't cause trouble for Xinmin. He is now at a critical stage for promotion." Mr. Shen said. He still has a strong political sensitivity.
"Then I don't care. I am the daughter-in-law of the Zhuang family. If anyone makes me angry, my in-laws will definitely not ignore it."
"Mom and Dad, even if you don't help me, you can't prevent me from finding a backer." Shen Yingyue raised her chin slightly, extremely proud.
She thinks she should be pampered by everyone and everyone should give in to her.
She has never experienced the hardships of life. She has been spoiled by her brothers and parents since she was a child, so that everything she considers is only from her perspective.
Old Mrs. Shen and Old Mr. Shen exchanged glances. They certainly would not let Shen Yingyue go to Zhuang Xinmin for such a small matter.
Although Shen Muchen's current position is very stable, the Shen family has left the capital for a long time after all. The relationships in the capital are now complicated and they are not sure how many of them their family can use.
The banker is the one they have the most control over, so they naturally have to maintain a good relationship with him.
"Okay, I'll vent your anger for you." Old Mrs. Shen said gently.
"Mom still loves me." Shen Yingyue hugged Old Lady Shen and said coquettishly.
Old Madam Shen patted Shen Yingyue on the back and said, "Since you can't get in, I'll go. I don't believe they dare to stop me outside."
"Ali knows both of us. As long as we enter the yard and meet Ali, they can no longer be rude to us, and we can also ask for an explanation." said Mrs. Shen.
Shen Yingyue nodded immediately, "Yes, Qi'an said before that big brother said that unless he personally brings the person to him, anyone else who comes to him is a liar."
"I don't know what big brother was thinking. He didn't bring Qi'an back to meet us the first time he came back. Instead, he sent him to someone else's house."
Shen Yingyue was full of resentment towards Shen Muchen. This third brother used to dote on her the most, so she could lose her temper whenever she wanted and never had to restrain herself.
Old Mrs. Shen sighed. She couldn't understand why Shen Muchen didn't bring Qi'an home to live. Was he still wary of them? They were Qi'an's grandparents, so what could they do to him?
"Mom and Dad, you said that my third brother sent my sister-in-law to prison personally. Does he have someone else?" Shen Yingyue suddenly changed the subject.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Don't you know what kind of person your third brother is? How could he have someone else? It was Li Xue who was wrong in the first place. He deceived your third brother."
"She was not good for Ah Li and Qi'an, otherwise why would they not recognize her? She also pushed Ah Li onto the road, causing her serious injuries and nearly killing her."
"Why keep a woman like this if she's not sent to prison?"
Old Mrs. Shen said that she was not satisfied with Li Xue in the first place.
A girl from the countryside, relying on her pretty face, seduced her son. If it weren't for Shen Muchen's insistence, Old Lady Shen would not have let Li Xue in.
Mr. Shen was more open-minded about this matter. "Li Xue and Muchen are already divorced. After the divorce, Muchen can find another one."
"Then we will pick a wife for him who is of equal status, and maybe we can have two more children. Our Shen family is destined to be prosperous."
Mrs. Shen nodded, "Yes, you are right."
"Mom and Dad, please stop talking. Every time you mention Third Brother, you can talk for a long time. I know you love him the most." Shen Yingyue pouted.
"You, don't we love you enough?"
Shen Yingyue hugged Old Lady Shen's arm and acted coquettishly, "Then when will you let me vent my anger?"
"I'll go with you tomorrow morning." Old Mrs. Shen said resignedly.
Shen Yingyue's expression was relieved. "I'm going home first. My driver and I will come to pick you up tomorrow morning."
"Okay." Old Mrs. Shen responded and watched Shen Yingyue leave.
Only Mrs. Shen and Mr. Shen were left in the room.
"You'd better be polite when you go there tomorrow. In Muchen's heart, the person he feels most sorry for is A Li." said Mr. Shen.
Old Lady Shen nodded. "If it weren't for Li Xue, Ah Li wouldn't have been thrown into Kaoshantun for so long. It's all that woman's fault."
Mr. Shen said nothing more, got up and walked towards his bedroom.
Old Mrs. Shen's eyes became increasingly colder. Every time she mentioned Shen Muchen, the old man had this dead expression on his face.
The next morning, just after breakfast, Shen Yingyue arrived and took Old Madam Shen straight to Shen Qingli's house.
Soon, they arrived at the gate of Shen Qingli's house. Looking at the tall gatehouse and the solid courtyard wall, Mrs. Shen's brows relaxed.
"It seems that Zhou Yubai is still rich, otherwise he wouldn't be able to afford such a big yard."
"How do you know it's Zhou Yubai's money? It can't be given by my third brother. The owner of this yard might be surnamed Shen." Shen Yingyue said loudly.
Old Madam Shen patted Shen Yingyue's hand gently.
"Speak softly, it would be embarrassing if someone heard you." Old Madam Shen said gently.
Shen Yingyue didn't care.
As soon as she walked to the door, she thought of the humiliation she suffered yesterday and could not suppress her anger.
Mrs. Shen whispered a few more words of comfort and signaled the driver to knock on the door.
The driver knocked on the door, and soon there was a sound...
