Chapter 31 Between the Sisters
"I still have to go to the main courtyard to pay my respects to my mother. Since Aunt Le is the steward of Changxin Garden, I don't need to teach you how to do it?"

Looking at Aunt Le, Shen Yunlan stood up. Ziping and Ziyuan were kneeling on the ground. Seeing her get up, they quickly followed her and came forward to help her wash and change clothes.

"Today, Cang Zhu followed me to the main courtyard. I hope there will be no more noise about this morning's noise when I come back." After finishing packing, she ordered her to walk out.

Cang Zhu followed, and Aunt Le had already stood up, secretly thankful in her heart, and quickly responded.

Taking Cang Zhu to the main courtyard, Shen Yunlan asked about Sanfang's affairs. Cang Zhu was born in the family and was very popular, but she could answer almost everything Shen Yunlan asked.

This made Shen Yunlan very satisfied. It will be a while before she returns home, and she needs more eyes and ears, so it will be more convenient to do things like this.

All the way to the main courtyard, I greeted Mrs. Cui as usual, had dinner with Mrs. Cui, and then talked about going to the Mrs. Cui's family to study.

The matter was settled two days ago, the reason why I haven't gone yet is that I have to get the ethnology to prepare, and Shen Yunjie and Shen Yunming also have to prepare.

Shen Yunming had a teacher before, but now he is going to the Cui family's ethnology, the original teacher must be properly arranged.

All the preparations are ready now, starting tomorrow, the sisters Shen Yunlan and Shen Yunjin will go to the Cui family's family study together with Shen Yunjie and Shen Yunming.

"Sister, I have copied all the copybooks you prepared for me before." Shen Yunjin would test her every day, and she would naturally know how it was going.

"I have prepared a new one for you. Even if you go to ethnology to study, you can't be left behind. I will help you make up arithmetic and so on later."

"Then I'll go with you to Jinhua Garden to get it later." The copybook prepared by Shen Yunjin was of great help to Shen Yunlan. Through the previous copybook, she learned a lot, but it was still insufficient.

She was about to go to the Cui family to learn to read, and she felt somewhat apprehensive, fearing that she would not be able to keep up, but at the same time she was very excited, after all, after living two lifetimes, it was the first time she had to study seriously.

After breakfast, Cui didn't keep them anymore, Shen Yunlan followed Shen Yunjin to Jinhua Garden, Shen Yunjie had to check what she had prepared, so she left with Aunt Qin.

After Xiao Zheng left the main courtyard, she didn't go back to her own courtyard. She went to Qingfengyuan and met her sister Zheng.

"It's a good thing that Yunming went to the Cui family to learn to study. Are you ready for everything?"

The two sisters were sitting on the soft couch, Mrs. Zheng asked with concern, Mrs. Zheng nodded, her expression was not very good.

Although she is Shen Yunming's biological mother, she is just a concubine, so she doesn't have to worry about what needs to be prepared, so Cui ordered everyone to prepare it.

In fact, Mrs. Zheng knew about this, but she still asked Mrs. Zheng specifically. Seeing that her sister had a bad face, she smiled and explained to her, "At first, I thought that Mrs. Cui might not live for a few years because of her crooked illness. , and now the body is getting better."

Her words made Xiao Zheng's complexion even worse.

"I heard that the second uncle has been staying in the main courtyard since he came back? Haven't you visited your mother?"

The second bedroom and the third bedroom are in the same mansion, although it is the second bedroom's business, but Mrs. Zheng is in charge of Zhongfu, she may not be able to do much, but it is still very easy to inquire about news.

Xiao Zheng replied, she didn't need to fight in the past, Shen Xu would come to her yard, but since he came back, he almost never saw him face to face.

"Yunming was born by you after all, you have to think of a way. You can't see the second uncle, but Yunming can." The implication of Zheng's words is very simple, it is to let Xiao Zheng use Shen Yunming to win favor .

There is only such a son in Erfang, and Shen Xu has always valued it very much.

"How can I think about it? Right now, he looks like Cui's sweet honey. He won't even say a few words for Yun Ming if I want him to!" When mentioning this, Xiao Zheng was full of resentment.

"You can't be like this. The second uncle valued you the most before was your gentleness, how can you still look gentle now?" Mrs. Zheng leaned back on the cushion, looking at Mrs. Zheng.

"Ms. Cui is the main wife, and it is only natural for the second uncle to go to the main courtyard." Looking at Mrs. Zheng, Mrs. Zheng thought of the concubines in her yard, "Even if they are a good couple right now, you have a chance, Mrs. Cui There are always times when it’s inconvenient.”

"I have a prescription here, you can take it back and eat it." Taking out a prescription from the drawer next to the small table, Mrs. Zheng handed it to Mrs. Zheng.

"What is this?" Xiao Zheng took it over and looked at it carefully, "A prescription for assisted pregnancy?"

"Erfang hasn't had any good news for a long time, if you can add one, are you afraid that Ershu won't turn to you?"

"Elder Sister's words are interesting. If this prescription is useful, why is there still no movement in the third room?" Having said that, Xiao Zheng still put away the prescription. She stood up and wanted to go outside.

"Wait a minute." Xiao Zheng's words made Zheng a little ashamed and annoyed, but let her come here because she has something to say.

"Next year, Bao'er will be an examiner. I have squeezed out 200 taels of silver. As a sister-in-law, shouldn't you also take some of it?"

Mrs. Zheng turned her head to look at her, "Elder Sister is really generous, and the price is 200 taels of silver. I am a concubine, and the monthly bill is only two taels of silver, and my brother's is less than ten taels of silver. Are you still thinking about it?" Search me?"

"How can it be called a search? Bao'er is our son-in-law. If he is successful, will it be of any benefit to you?"

"Benefits?" Xiao Zheng snorted coldly, "Who is it good for me to marry into the Shen family? You know very well that they men are human beings, but we women are not human beings?"

"Let me tell you, don't talk about taking silver, you don't even want to get out of me for a single copper!"

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Zheng raised her feet and left. Mrs. Zheng sat up straight suddenly, her face pale with anger. Mother Kang came in from outside the house, and seeing that she was very angry, she hurried forward to comfort her.

It took a while for Zheng to calm down and lean back on the mat again.

"Mom, did she know about what you said?" After a while, Mrs. Zheng spoke quietly, and Nanny Kang was stunned for a moment, then her expression changed.

"Girl, don't think about it. It's been so many years. If she really knows, how can she stop so much?"

"But in the past..." Mrs. Zheng opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but finally swallowed it back.

"Forget it, if she doesn't take it, don't take it. You can ask someone to send the silver back home."

Only after the monthly bill was settled, before the things were redeemed, she thought about sending money home again. Mother Kang wanted to persuade her, but she knew she couldn't persuade her at all. Otherwise, she wouldn't have had to steal the big house before. Things, take them out and pawn them.

Xiao Zheng left Qingfengyuan and went to her own yard. She knew in her heart that even if she and Zheng were sisters, she was unreliable and had to rely on herself!
 At the end of the month, the new year is about to begin. Although it is the Gregorian calendar year, I still wish da'jia
