Chapter 33 Relatives?enemy!
Mother Shen was surprised again when she heard her daughter's words. What happened today, one after another surprised her.

"My son, where did you get such news, don't make wild guesses and hearsay!"

I know that A Niang has doubts, but she also has an excuse to explain.

"Do you know Xiao Boya?" Shen Qingjun said sorry in his heart and decided to push the matter to Xiao Boya.

"Of course, this is the confirmed heir of the Xiao family." Mother Shen nodded, why mention him?Could it be...

"That's right, A Niang, it was Xiao Boya who told me, that's why I wrote to you, asking you to leave Xiao Han and the Xiao family's affairs alone.

My daughter didn't believe it at first, but after several investigations over the past few months, my daughter has no choice but to believe it. "

Mother Shen has completely calmed down. She has experienced many storms and waves. Today, it is just a small scene.

After believing Xiao Han's identity, she completely understood her daughter's behavior and handled it appropriately. Although she had a bad reputation, it didn't matter.

She only has one son and one daughter. Even if the news about her daughter's inability to manage the house spread, it would not affect Po Jun's ability to marry a wife.

"My son, you did the right thing. If his identity is really like this, it's really better not to get involved in his family's affairs.

For now, stay calm for now, and I'll find a reliable person to send a message to your father, so that he can have an idea. "

"My son has grown up!" Looking at the still immature daughter, she said with emotion.

The atmosphere suddenly became heavy. Shen Qingjun didn't like such a heavy atmosphere and changed the subject:

"Aniang, what happened to Uncle Shen's family mentioned in your letter?"

Of course she knew about Uncle Shen's family, and she still had a deep memory, but she shouldn't have known about it in this world in her previous life, so she asked this question.

Shen's mother felt that her daughter didn't want to worry about her, and she also talked about Shen's father's grievances with other Shen family members.

The situation of the Shen family is not complicated at all. After all, it is a small family, a family in a county, how complicated it can be, but there are some explanations.

The story begins with the old man of the Shen family, Shen Pingnan's grandfather. The head of the Shen family, a wealthy family in Guangping County, the old man of the Shen family married two wives in his life.

Both wives gave birth to a son for him. The eldest son born to his ex-wife was named Shen Bowen, but his first wife died of dystocia after giving birth to Shen Bowen. A year later, he remarried, and his second wife also gave birth to a son named Shen Yaowu.

As the old saying goes, if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather. For the eldest son Shen Bowen, it is true that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather!
Since the younger brother was born, he has not been cared by his own father, but fortunately, his mother has also been left behind. Under their care, he grew up safely until he was 16 years old.

Under the arrangement of the stepmother, I married the daughter of a farmer. Just after I got married, the stepmother had a fit and made a fuss about separating the family!
The main reason was that Shen Bowen would compete for his son's property, because Shen Bowen was the eldest son, the natural first heir of the Shen family, and because old Mrs. Shen had lost his mind a long time ago, he also agreed to split the family.

The final result was that Shen Bowen, the eldest son of his original spouse, had only one manor, and was sent away after five hundred acres of land.

This distribution is not the treatment of the eldest son, but the treatment of a concubine, but this is the distribution of the family that Mr. Shen personally presides over. As a son, Shen Bowen has to accept it no matter how wronged he is, so the grudges are buried.

After Shen Bowen separated, he came to live in a manor and became a small landowner. Soon his wife gave birth to a son, Shen Pingnan.

If the matter ends here, it is just a story about two brothers competing for family property, and the second brother fighting to win, everything stems from the partiality of Mr. Shen, and it is not a big feud!
The turning point occurred when Mrs. Shen passed away and Shen Yaowu became the head of the Shen family.

As soon as Mrs. Shen passed away, Shen Yaowu, the stepmother's son, led people to drive Shen Bowen's family out of Zhuangzi, not only that, but also took back the [-] mu of land allocated to him.

Shen Bowen went to the family elders to comment, but the elders of the clan closed their doors to thank the guests and pretended to be deaf and dumb because of the majesty of the new patriarch.

Shen Bowen, who was kicked out, had nowhere to go, and the Yue family and Wu family took him in.

But the Wu family is not a big family, and it is the best they can do to provide him with a house. Shen Bowen has to go out and find a job if he wants to live.

Originally, he thought that with his ability to read and write, he could be a bookkeeper anywhere, right?
However, relying on the Shen family's prestige, Shen Yaowu has already spoken in Guangping County——

"No one is allowed to do any work for Shen Bowen, otherwise it will offend him and the Shen family!"

Shen Bowen, who failed to find work several times, looked at his son who was waiting to be fed, so he could only go to the wharf to do hard work to support his family. However, the north has been fighting for years, and the wharf is often closed due to natural and man-made disasters. Hard work can't support the family. .

So Shen Bowen's wife, Mrs. Wu, washed clothes for others to supplement the household income. The heavy work caused the two of them to die before they were 35.

Shen Pingnan who lost his parents hated Shen Yaowu and Shen Yaowu's family even more, but he also knew that he couldn't do anything to Shen Yaowu's family!
After his father and mother passed away, he had no source of livelihood and wanted to get rid of the suppression of the Shen family and make a difference, so he ran out of Guangping County to join the army. Fortunately, he was selected as a soldier when he was less than fourteen years old but in good health. Emperor Shao Wu's personal soldiers.

Even after becoming a soldier, he did not slack off, but worked even harder.

These were also seen by the future emperor and empress, who promoted and trusted him even more.

With the continuous improvement of the status of the two, Shen Pingnan's status has also risen, and he was awarded the Duke of Liang last year, the founding Duke of the Great Wei Dynasty.

As expected, the stepmother's son, Shen Yaowu, started a path of prodigality since inheriting the Shen family business. Of course, he also married a wife and had children, and one of his sons, Shen Beiwang, was born.

Different from Shen Pingnan's ups and downs in life, Shen Beiwang stands out as an ordinary and incompetent person!
After Shen Bowen passed away, Shen Bei looked forward to his son to inherit his father's business, and continued to lose his fortune. Since the two father and son took over the Shen family, the Shen family has been declining day by day.
In just over 40 years, the Shen family has been reduced to selling land and houses to make ends meet.

And when there is nothing to sell and you will beg for a living,

Shen Pingnan was granted the title of Duke of the Kingdom, and he returned to his hometown to pay homage to his ancestors!

After learning that he had such a powerful relative, Shen Beiwang, who was delighted, hit it off with the tribesmen who wanted to curry favor with Liang Guogong. With their support,
After traveling thousands of miles, he dragged his family to Yujing City to join Shen Pingnan!
"It's ridiculous, why does he think that Pingnan will recognize his relative?"

Shen's mother had known the inside story for a long time, and her first reaction was to disown this relative.

If it wasn't for the reason, they would all have to be killed.

Therefore, Uncle Shen's family, who came to recognize their relatives with enthusiasm, were kicked out by Shen's mother before the gate of Duke Liang's mansion collapsed.

It's really this kind of relationship, it's so embarrassing!
