Shen Xin and wife returned to the capital with such great fanfare and Shen Miao was in the limelight in front of all the civil and military officials in Ming Qi's tribute banquet. At the same time everyone was talking about it, they also turned their eyes towards the original Formidable General residence.
The Formidable Great General was no longer there and the signboard of the General residence had long been removed and replaced with the Shen residence. At the beginning when Shen Xin was demoted and left the capital, the Shen family not only did not send charcoal in the snowy weather, but also proposed to separate at the crucial moment, to draw a clear relationship with Shen Xin. Now that Shen Xin was once again highly regarded by Emperor Wen Hui, no matter what Emperor Wen Hui's intention was, outsiders would see the Shen family as gloating and as for the Shen family themselves, naturally they had to swallow the bitter fruit.
In Rong Jing Tang, Old Shen Furen was sitting on the couch and the fur on the couch was the wolf skin that was hunted in the Northwest region when Shen Xin was still alive. Because it had been a long time, the edges were somewhat flat. In the past, every year when Shen Xin returned to the capital, he would bring some animal skins that were hunted in the Northwest region for Old Shen Furen, and that was something that could not be bought in the capital. Now that Shen Xin no longer sent animal skins, Old Shen Furen could only use the old goods.
And Rong Jing Tang was no longer as exquisite and luxurious as it was in the past, and even the decorations on the partitions were much lesser. In the beginning, Shen Xin was endlessly rewarded by the Emperor, and even the entire Shen residence lived comfortably, but now without Shen Xin's help, Chen Rou Qiu was in charge of the housekeeping, and the days were somewhat stretched.
"Number Three's family is getting more and more excessive." Old Shen Furen drank a mouthful of ginseng tea and her face almost wrinkled together. She said, "Seeing that winter is coming, yesterday she went to find a tailor to make a fur cloak for me, but it was also pushing and pulling. This family's money is all in her own pocket. "
The maid behind carefully massaged Old Shen Furen's shoulders and lowered her head without speaking. Now Old Shen Furen's temper was becoming more and more temperamental. Ever since Shen Yuan Bo died of smallpox a year ago, Old Shen Furen would often lose her temper.
Shen Yuan Bo's premature death was an unspeakable pain for the Shen family. A year ago, there were a number of people who were infected with smallpox in the Ding capital, and even though it was finally controlled, the spread of the epidemic was stopped and it did not cause a greater impact. But in the end there were still some who died and unfortunately, Shen Yuan Bo was one of them.
In the Second household of the Shen family, Shen Gui originally had two sons and Shen Yuan had already died under the executioner's knife. Originally there was still Shen Yuan Bo to rely on but once Shen Yuan Bo died, Shen Gui went crazy and Ren Wan Yun hung herself in the courtyard after Shen Yuan Bo died. After Ren Wan Yun's death, Shen Yuan Bo started to crazily take in concubines and bring women into the room, but there was no movement for a year and a half. Afterwards Old Shen Furen finally felt that something was not right and found a physician to take a look at Shen Gui. The physician said that Shen Gui had taken an infertility medicine and injured the roots of his offspring, so it was impossible for him to have any offspring in this lifetime.
Old Shen Furen fainted after hearing it and Shen Gui was also silly. After Shen Gui investigated, he ended up finding the dead Ren Wan Yun. Ren Wan Yun had once drugged Shen Gui with the intention to protect Shen Yuan Bo's Di son position, but who knew that Shen Yuan Bo's life was destined to have such a calamity. With Ren Wan Yun's death, naturally Shen Gui could not do anything to her. In the original Second household, Shen Gui only had Shen Dong Ling left. Shen Dong Ling's status rose because of this and Wan YiNiang changed and became the only person who gave birth to a child for Shen Gui.
Ever since Shen Gui knew that he would not have any descendants in this lifetime, he no longer had the heart to advance in his career. There was not even a person to carry on the family line, so what was the point of earning a mountain of gold and silver? Spending the entire day in debauchery, it was very lively.
It was impossible for the Second household to give birth to any offspring, thus Old Shen Furen could only turn her gaze towards the Third household's Shen Wan. Shen Wan was not forced to take the infertility medicine, but Chen Rou Qiu had trapped Shen Wan's heart to death. Even the two TongFang that Old Shen Furen stuffed into Shen Wan in the early years, were only decorations in the Third household.
