Rather than being ruthless now, it was better to let them live with hope. Shen Gui thought that he still had a son and Ren Wan Yun also thought that Shen Yuan Bo would replace Shen Yuan, but there would be a day when Shen Yuan Bo was unable to escape the Heavenly Dao's misfortune. At that time, the seeds of despair hidden in the Second household would break through the soil and drown the entire Second household.
The Second household was destined to have no descendants, but now they were filled with hope, not knowing that the footsteps of misfortune were slowly approaching them, waiting for the scythe to fall and completely reap the lives of the entire household.
The chess path was already prepared and the chess pieces were moving forward step by step. Was this not good?
"Young Lady, Mo Qing came over previously." Bai Lu walked in and said with some difficulty, "He said that the banknotes that were previously given were all spent. Still need to go to Bao Xiang Lou?"
Bai Lu was somewhat embarrassed and also somewhat did not understand. How would there be a master who would give money to the subordinate to find a Young Lady? Moreover it was not an ordinary squandering. How was this letting the subordinate do the work? It was clearly giving money for the subordinate to enjoy. What was even more hateful was that Mo Qing got such a good job and every time he would put on a look of pain that made one's teeth hurt.
"Go and take another five hundred taels of silver for him." Shen Miao said.
Bai Lu revealed a pained expression and heard Shen Miao instructing, "Also let Mo Qing say that sentence to Liu Ying."
The few maids in the room were surprised for a moment and looked curiously at Shen Miao. After all, none of them knew what 'that sentence' that Shen Miao said was.
Just as Bai Lu was about to go out, she suddenly remembered something, "Young Lady, previously Rong Jing Tang's Zhang Mama came over and seemed to want to inquire about the matter of Master and Furen separating from the family."
Ever since that day when she heard the truth from Jing Guan Sheng's mouth, Luo Xue Yan and Old Shen Furen had a big fight and she told the matter to Shen Xin. Naturally Shen Xin was unable to restrain his anger and immediately went to Rong Jing Tang to reason with Old Furen. Luo Xue Yan wholeheartedly wanted to separate from the family and after the matter, Shen Xin was disheartened with the Shen family and naturally agreed. Even if they did not want the assets that Old General Shen had left behind, they still wanted to firmly separate from the family. Old Shen Furen knew that she still needed to borrow Shen Xin's money and prestige, so in a moment of desperation, she pretended to faint from a stroke, which made one feel angry and funny at the same time.
Now that Zhang Mama came to inquire about the news, naturally she wanted to probe the First household's intentions and thought that Shen Xin and Luo Xue Yan only said so in a moment of anger.
"If she comes to ask again, tell her that we have made up our mind to separate from the family, and ask her to take good care of Old Madame. If Old Madame does not recover after a long time, it would be good to ask the elders of the family to come."
The elders in the tribe had always looked down on Old Shen Furen's background and when Old General Shen was alive, he favoured Shen Xin so naturally the elders would be biased towards Shen Xin. When the people from the clan came to separate from the family, they would definitely not let Old Shen Furen get any benefits.
"This servant understands." Bai Lu smiled as she left the room.
Shen Miao sat down in front of the table. This lifetime's journey had just begun and one had to plan so much. However it was not an easy matter to protect the Shen family at the same time as taking revenge.
It had to be done step by step.
…
These disturbances in the Ding capital were just a joke after one's meal. After talking about it, one would laugh it off and no one would remember it. Even if it was a topic of conversation, after a few days, it would be covered by fresh matters.
When people die, the lights go out. The world was just that cold.
Bao Xiang Lou was still as lively as usual. Recently there was a new batch of Persian dancers who were beautiful and bold. All the aristocratic young masters in the capital flocked to them like ducks. Bao Xiang Lou's business was flourishing but now it was almost overcrowded.
Men were greedy for novelty and liked the new and hated the old. The new dancers were very popular for a while, while the former top courtesans seemed to be deserted and depressed. However among these greedy men, there was one who was different. When he walked to the door, the young lady at the door waved her handkerchief and giggled, "Master Mo, today there is no need to order Young Lady Liu Ying, right?"
