Daughter Shenghua

Chapter 9 Changes
"Master, it's bad!" Yingyue ran in with a panicked expression.

"What's wrong, you're so anxious, are you always so edgy?" Li's mother said angrily.

Yingyue said anxiously: "There was something going on in the shop today. As soon as the servants left the mansion, they heard people spreading bad things about the master. They said that the master was in the Chen family, and he was not allowed to take concubines if he had no children. It is said that the master often bullies the cousin girl because of the name of Marquis of Jingbian. It has completely ruined the reputation of the lady. It is said that the cousin girl is like a fairy. The slaves are anxious when they hear it."

Bizhi and Chunxiao scolded the Chen family as white-eyed wolves, and Li's mother was so angry that she wiped her tears.

Yunxi just smiled, childless?They haven't been in the original owner's house for a year, how can they be happy.Treat everyone harshly?In the eyes of the Chen family, Yun Xi is a transparent person who let her live alone in a remote yard and let her fend for herself.

To put it nicely, the right to be in charge of the family is not because of seeing her red makeup and jealousy.Yun Xi sneered for a while, she didn't want to argue with them, it seemed that she was too kind!
Yun Xi looked at the angry maids and said, "Could it be that if you were bitten by a dog, you still have to bite the dog back!"

Mother Li looked at Yun Xi worriedly, not knowing what to do.

"Yingyue, if you continue to explain, we will no longer give any preferential treatment to the Chen family in all our properties, and all privileges will be taken back. I want him to know that my advantages are not so easy to take advantage of!" Yun Xi said coldly.

As Yunxi's financial steward, Yingyue understood immediately, and said: "Master, you should have done this long ago, the servant will go right away!" After speaking, she happily ran out.

The Chen family heard the news from the outside, but they didn't explain it out. They let the rumors get worse and watched coldly.

Shen Yuqin secretly rejoiced, this was the day when she saw Chen Siyuan staring at Mingyue Pavilion in a daze, and she secretly let people spread the word after seeing Chen Siyuan staring at Mingyue Pavilion in a daze, in order to let Chen Siyuan see the true face of that woman and completely cut off their contact.

Just three days later, the Chen Mansion was filled with joy and sorrow.

In the Songhe Courtyard, the old lady got up early and saw the pastries brought by the kitchen. There were no exquisite snacks on weekdays, and there were no fresh melons and fruits. She became angry immediately.

"Call the kitchen steward!"

After a while, Mrs. Zhang, who was in charge, came in, sweating profusely. When she saw the old lady, she knelt down.

"Old madam, this servant has been wronged!"

With a "snap", all the food on the table was smashed to Mama Zhang's feet.

"You still dare to call injustice, now you are the old lady's housekeeper, how dare you treat the old lady like this? What do you usually eat, what did you cook for the old lady today!" Du Juan scolded beside her.

Mother Zhang cried: "It's not that the servants are not dedicated. In the past, the old lady ate the freshest and most exquisite. It was delivered early in the morning by Shixian Pavilion, and the general ingredients were delivered every three days. Today The servant asked three times in the morning, but they never delivered it. I asked Butler Zhang, and he said that he had gone to urge it, but said that it hadn’t been delivered yet. The servant was afraid of delaying the old lady’s meal, so he could only make some. The old lady is very careful!"

The old lady said with a livid face, "Go and call me Steward Zhang!"

After a quarter of an hour, Butler Zhang came running profusely, "Old lady, calm down, I sent someone to ask in the morning, and the people in Shixian Pavilion said that the ordering privilege of our house has expired. No one went to renew, so They just canceled it directly. And Yipin Pavilion also sent people to ask, our privilege is about to expire, asking if we can continue."

"What privilege, why haven't I heard of it?" The old lady frowned and said.

"This is all Da Madam, no, it was ordered when Yuan Shi was here. Only with special privileges can we buy those rare and scarce goods in Beijing at the first time."

As soon as the old lady heard the word Yuan, her heart sank.

At this time, Shen Yuqin also came, and seeing this, she said, "Why don't we go and get a privilege ourselves? As for letting the old lady eat it, wouldn't it be okay?"

In fact, she came here for selfish reasons. She originally complained to the old lady, but when she walked to the door, she found out that the old lady's place was the same, and she felt at ease.

Steward Zhang blushed when he heard this, and said awkwardly: "There are two conditions for applying for the privilege, one is a second-rank official or above; the other is 1 taels of silver as collateral."

To put it bluntly, it is necessary to have power and money, and the Chen family is afraid that it is not qualified.

After listening, everyone's faces were a little ugly, and Shen Yuqin also knew that she had said something wrong, so she bowed her head and remained silent.

At this time, Chen Siyuan rushed over when he heard the news, just in time to hear what Butler Zhang said.

He froze for a moment before saying: "Forget it, we don't have to live so luxuriously, I'm just a fourth-rank official after all."

It can only be like this, everyone thinks so.But how can a person who is used to a life of rich clothes and fine food get used to it all at once?The Chen family lost the fine clothes and food they used to have, and the money is also tight.

Yunxi used to take care of the property that was shared with the long house when the family was divided, and the income was quite good.Now that they have fallen out, the old lady can only take care of herself.

At first, there was the third wife to help, and then there was Yuan Yunxi. The old lady only spent money, and she had long since lost the vigor to earn money in the past.Coupled with Yingyue's efforts to suppress the Chen family's business, the business in those shops has dropped a lot, and the income has also shrunk greatly.

Mrs. Chen added a lot of gray hairs because of this, fell ill in a panic, and gave the third lady the power of the house.

The third lady over there gritted her teeth angrily, saying that it was the power of the family, not because of the wealth of the third room. I didn't know how much money they had paid in the subsidy before. Finally, Yuan Yunxi came to take the hot potato and was caught by those idiots again. Chased away.The old lady pretended to be sick and pushed this mess on her head again!The second room is quiet now, afraid of getting stuck.

In private, the third wife complained countless times that she wanted to move out early. It's not that they couldn't afford a big house, they bought the house early in the morning, and they just waited for the old lady to die before moving out.After the old lady heard these words, she really became ill with anger.

……

This day, Shen Yuqin went shopping with a few friends.After choosing the jewelry in Mingzhulou, they were asked to send it directly to Chen's house. In the past, they would send it without saying a word, but now they are stopped to pay first before delivery, and they are laughed at because they can't afford it.

Shen Yuqin's face was flushed with anger, and the jewelry she chose was not too expensive, so she could afford it naturally, but in the past, she would send it directly to her home and pay for it, so she didn't bring too much money out, who knows that she lost such a big person .

A few little sisters also covered their mouths and laughed, who made her show off a lot on weekdays, so arrogant.In the end, Shen Yuqin was so angry that she walked away.

Besides, Chen Siyuan, one day after the imperial court, a group of colleagues dragged him to Shunfeng Tower to eat roast chicken. The food there was good, but the business was so good that on weekdays he had to make an appointment one day in advance, and sometimes he couldn't make an appointment.

But Chen Siyuan didn't need to make an appointment, he could go directly to the special private room every time he went, he didn't know why, he just thought it was the boss giving his father-in-law Jing Bianhou's face, after a long time, he didn't want to ask again.

Of course, this was arranged by Yunxi, in order to save him more face.No one knows that Shunfeng Building is the property of Marquis Jingbian. They only know that it has a strong background. There was once a second-rank official relying on his status to forcibly occupy a private room.

At that time, he was directly thrown out, and within three days he was impeached and dismissed from office.

Since then, no one dared to make trouble here, and even Chen Siyuan was looked at highly.

Chen Siyuan led a group of people into the Shunfeng Building, and was about to go upstairs when he was stopped by someone and asked to show the appointment slip.

Mr. Liu next to him smiled and said, "Didn't you see Mr. Chen is here? Does he still need an appointment slip?"

Several people laughed together, and the waiter politely waited for the few people to finish laughing, and asked them again for an appointment slip. At this time, everyone felt that something was wrong.

The shop waiter said again: "Our master said that we made a mistake before, so we won't pursue it anymore. But in the future, Mr. Chen will also have to show the appointment slip when he comes, and the villain will also follow the orders. Please don't embarrass the villain. "

Seeing this situation, several clever people left quietly. Chen Siyuan blushed, said goodbye and left.
