My old husband who can read minds

As soon as the New Year's Eve on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month has passed, all the noise has calmed down again.

Qin He also resumed his "six in the morning and three in the afternoon" life in court. Unless there are special circumstances, this relaxed working time is simply the envy of the "996" people in modern society.

Shen Yuan had been severely envious and jealous at the beginning.

As Qin Bili returned to Lushan Academy to continue his studies, Qin Yian was sent to the Deng family from time to time to learn martial arts from his uncle. The most leisurely person in the family of four was the mistress Shen Yuan.

The days of winning and losing are simply not pleasant. Shen Yuan flies happily every day.

If you have nothing to do, take the maids out of the house to go shopping, or make an appointment with Cui Jianjia, a good sister, to have afternoon tea together. Or, if not better, play leaf cards with the aunts and sisters-in-law in the house, listen to the opera, and live a small life. That's called nourishment.

At the end of the month, the old lady accidentally contracted the cold and stayed in bed for more than half a month before she finally recovered.But since then, the old lady has become more and more afraid of the cold, and her health has been deteriorating.

During this period, Deng Yunheng's mother, Mrs. Deng San, came to visit the old lady with gifts. Shen Yuan was "lucky" to hear the follow-up to the previous gossip of the Zhou family's eldest family.

It turns out that on that day, Chen, Zhou Dong, mother and son came to Zhou Ying out of bad intentions.

Chen's lion opened his mouth and hoped that Deng Yunheng, the newly appointed commander of the Eastern Suburbs Camp Cavalry, would arrange a good place for his brother-in-law in the military camp. He also pointed out that the work should be light, the salary should be high, and he could show his official prestige. .

Not to mention that Deng Yunheng had just returned to Beijing, and he had not even officially established his feet in the court. Even though he had already held great power, he did not have the right to make arrangements for Zhou Dong, an unlearned and unskilled person who was incapable of writing or martial arts. Official position.

The imperial court clearly stipulated that even the master next to the Qipin County Magistrate must be a scholar at the end to be qualified to eat the bowl of official rice.Zhou Dong, on the other hand, does not know many Chinese characters and is not even a child. Even if he spends money to buy an official position, he will not be able to get it.

Chen's request is not only outrageous, but also so ignorant and stupid that it leaves one speechless.

Zhou Ying was immediately furious. Not only did she sternly reject her mother's unreasonable request, but she also threatened that if her parents and brothers dared to use Deng Yunheng's name to cause trouble outside, she would completely disown her mother's family.

Mr. Zhou was really angry when he saw his daughter. He was originally feeling guilty and ashamed, so he hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over. He thought that if his daughter didn't want to, then forget it. There was no need for the whole family to turn against each other.

Unexpectedly, Chen made a move that surprised everyone. She knelt down to Zhou Ying.As a biological mother, she actually knelt down to her daughter. This was simply going to kill Zhou Ying.

If word spreads about the matter, and a charge of "great unfilial piety" is laid down, Zhou Ying can't be cleared even if he jumps into the Yellow River. This is Chen's murderous act.

That day, Shen Yuan and others saw Zhou Ying's red eyes because they were angry at Chen's move.

Not only was he angry, he was probably also seriously injured.

If the place changes, the Wang family comes to kneel down and beg her daughter to "raise her noble hand" for the sake of Shen Ting's glory and wealth. Shen Yuan feels suffocated just thinking about that scene.

One can imagine how deeply hurt Zhou Ying was when she faced Mrs. Chen who was kneeling to her.

It was difficult for her to come out to entertain the guests later as if nothing had happened. She was really tough and strong inside.

Chen's kneeling and begging left Zhou Ying with no way out. There were so many distinguished guests from the Deng family present, and she was even more afraid that if she didn't follow her mother's wishes, Chen would cause trouble in front of the guests and embarrass her husband's family.

So Zhou Ying could only reluctantly agree and temporarily dismissed her mother's family.

Afterwards, Zhou Ying almost cried and told her husband about her grievances.

She was sensible and calculating. She did not ask her husband to agree to the unreasonable request of her mother's family. Instead, she asked her husband to find a solution once and for all, so that Mrs. Chen would not pester the couple endlessly for Zhou Dong, an incompetent brother.

Hearing that his wife had been greatly wronged, Deng Yunheng was furious.

What's more, he had long been resentful towards Chen and Zhou Dong's mother and son, so he took this opportunity to vent his anger on his wife, and gave the Zhou family an unforgettable "lesson". (End of chapter)
