"What nonsense are you talking about?" Old Shen Furen's brows wrinkled and subconsciously refuted Shen Yuan's words, "What kind of identity does she have, how would Eldest Shen take a fancy to her?"
"I am just speaking casually. Grandmother need not take it to heart." Shen Yuan smiled and changed the topic. After saying a few more words, he then took his leave. Before leaving, he looked at Zhang Mama without batting an eyelid.
After Shen Yuan left, Old Shen Furen kept thinking about what Shen Yuan said. On one hand, she knew that Shen Yuan's words were outrageous. No matter how open-minded Shen Xin and wife were, they would not take a fancy to that family's lowly status. Moreover Shen Qiu was not a lecherous person, so this matter was as difficult as ascending to Heaven. But on the other hand, Old Shen Furen was moved by Shen Yuan's words. If Shen Qiu found a noble family's Young Lady, would not his power go up a level? Old Shen Furen could not see Shen Qiu doing well, so how could she watch him grow more powerful? If he married her own grandniece, not only would it not be better, it would drag the First household of the Shen family down and drag Shen Qiu down. That was called good.
Zhang Mama was massaging Old Shen Furen's shoulders as she softly said, "Old Furen, actually this old servant also feel that Second Young Master's words are somewhat reasonable." After a pause, she then said, "Think about it, if Eldest Young Master and Biao Young Lady were married, they would be even closer. Biao Young Lady would be on Old Furen's side, so it would be much easier to do anything." She said softly, "If the marriage is successful, in the future money matters would be easy. Biao Young Lady's money would not be your money?"
When the words were said, Old Shen Furen's eyes lit up. Correct, if Shen Qiu and the family's grandniece were married, then the grandniece would naturally be on her side. By controlling Shen Qiu, it was the same as controlling the First household.
Zhang Mama continued, "If Biao Young Master and Fifth Young Lady were married, it would be even better. In the future the entire First household's money and property would all belong to Old Furen."
Old Shen Furen's heart moved. Zhang Mama's words were all aimed at her, making her heart burst with joy. Thinking of being able to seize the First household's assets and secretly use all kinds of methods to make the First household in chaos, Old Shen Furen was extremely happy. But in the blink of an eye, he became worried and said, "It's easy to say, but my grandnieces and nephews all came from small families. It's not like Old Master hasn't seen the world. How could you take a fancy to them?"
"My Old Madam." Mother Zhang smiled. "You've forgotten about the methods you used in the past. It's just a small matter between a man and a woman. How can it be so complicated? Nothing is impossible if you use your brain a little. "
Her words caused Old Shen Furen to have a little reverie and after a moment, Old Shen Furen also laughed. Most likely she wanted to laugh in a charming manner but because of her old age, it was somewhat strange. That kind of old amorous expression made her look exceptionally ugly. She said, "That is also true. A man and a woman's love is just a small matter." After saying those words, she and Zhang Mama looked at each other and saw the deep meaning in each other's eyes. Old Shen Furen said, "Someone come and find the box in my room. My pair of grandnieces have not seen for a long time so it is time to give them some greeting gifts."
Outside the room, Shen Yuan looked at Rong Jing Tang's low laughter and a trace of sneer flashed in his eyes before he slowly walked out of the courtyard.
…
In the Western courtyard, Shen Miao handed ten banknotes to Mo Qing.
"Go to Bao Xiang Lou and look for a Young Lady called Liu Ying. I have already inquired about it. One hundred taels of silver can buy her for a night. Take the money and sit with her for a night. Do not do anything and go every three days." Shen Miao said.
When Mo Qing heard the three words' Bao Xiang Lou ', his face turned green and when he heard that Shen Miao wanted him to look for Young Lady Liu Ying, his face turned from green to red. He delayed taking the banknotes and looked at Shen Miao, "Young, Young Lady, you are joking with this subordinate."
