Although her words were gentle, her eyes were very sharp. The two maids jumped in fright and quickly knelt down, saying, "We don't dare. We only want to serve Madam wholeheartedly. We don't dare to have any other thoughts."
Chen Rou Qiu looked down at them for a while and the two maids were so scared that their legs were trembling. She then lightly said, "Get up. Since you are not willing, I will not force you."
"Many thanks to Furen." The two maids trembled as they stood up and their hearts sighed in relief at the same time. Chen Rou Qiu looked gentle on the outside and treated people kindly, but as Chen Rou Qiu's personal maids, they had seen Chen Rou Qiu's methods. In fact there were a few good looking maids that rushed to stick to Shen Wan. Even though Shen Wan did not show much interest, he did not reject them too much. These few maids were later punished by Chen Rou Qiu with a reason. Not only did they decline, they also implicated the entire family. Shi Qing and Hua Yi were very clear in their hearts that Chen Rou Qiu was an extremely jealous person and her methods were ruthless. If one really had a relationship with Shen Wan, one fear that one would die until not even bones would be left.
Chen Rou Qiu sighed, "One can only blame me for not having the ability to give birth to a son for Master. If I was able to give birth to a son, it would not be such a situation now."
Shi Qing and Hua Yi did not dare to speak casually, after all children were the pain in Chen Rou Qiu's heart. Chen Rou Qiu muttered, "Now that the Shen residence has declined to such a state, there is not even a son among the younger generation. Even if there was one in the Second household, they are all dead now. Now I am envious of Luo Xue Yan. She has children but no parents-in-law. Shen Xin treats her like a jewel and does not even have a Tong Fang. It really makes one jealous. "
Thinking of yesterday at the tribute banquet, Shen Miao was in the limelight. Looking at Shen Yue again, it was obvious that her looks and talents were much higher than Shen Miao, but because of the declining reputation of the Shen family, she could not even find a good husband. Not to mention Shen Yue's yearning for Prince Ding.
There was a trace of unwillingness in Chen Rou Qiu's heart. She had been competitive all her life but now she was trampled by the vulgar daughter of a military general that she looked down upon.
At this moment, an old maid suddenly came in from outside and said, "Madam, someone is looking for Old Madam outside the mansion's entrance, but was stopped by Madam's servant. Madam … He said that he came to seek refuge with the Shen family. "
When Chen Rou Qiu heard it, she frowned and thought that it was Old Shen Furen's relatives who were unrelated to her that came over. The Jing Clan was gone, but there were still these strange people. His expression immediately turned cold and he said, "Since you're here to ask for money, give them two silver ingots and send them away. This mansion can't afford to have idle people, don't let any Tom, Dick, or Harry in. "
"Nope." The manservant scratched his head and said, "Madam, that person doesn't look like she's here to take advantage of us. She said that she's the daughter of an old friend of the General. Something happened to her family and she's desperate to seek help."
Old General Shen?
Chen Rou Qiu thought for a moment before standing up and said, "Bring her to the side room. I will go and meet her."
…
When Shen Miao returned to the residence from Feng Xian Pawnshop, it was still very early. When she entered the room, she locked herself in and one did not know what she was thinking about. When it was close to evening, Luo Tan returned. Luo Tan bought some jewellery and generously gave some to Shen Miao, "Biao Youngest Sister, today we went to the jewellery shops. The jewellery shops in the Ding capital are very big. Young Lady Feng and I also picked some for you. One do not know if you like it. You take it first and later when you want to go out, we can go shopping again. "
She actually had a look of wanting to continue.
Shen Miao turned her head and said yes. After Luo Tan left, she looked at the half box of jewellery and thought about how much money could be pawned.
