In order to convince Wei Shu, Wei Chen didn't hide anything from her: "Now the most important thing about our Wei family is money. In a few years, even the second wife of the entire Sheng family may not be able to match us in terms of financial resources."

"call……"

The information in Wei Chen's words was so shocking that Wei Shuyi took a long time to digest it before finally coming back to his senses, heaving a sigh of relief and sitting on the bed with a wry smile.

"Ruyi wrote that the winery was making a fortune every day. I thought she was exaggerating at the time, but now it seems that I am just looking at the sky."

Chapter 78 Cousin

Wei Chen waited for Wei Shu to calm down, then picked up the stack of people's deeds on the table, selected a few and introduced them to her.

Bai Zhi, a first-class female envoy, is good at writing, calculating, courageous, and decisive. She is mainly responsible for assisting Wei Shuyi in handling affairs in the courtyard and managing the servants.

Banxia, ​​a first-class female envoy, has a docile temperament and is careful and considerate in her work. She is responsible for taking care of Wei Shuyi's daily life and serving closely at Wei Shuyi's side.

Below them are three second-class female envoys, Chuntao, Xia Zhu, and Qiuju, and four third-class female envoys, Donghua, Dongxue, Dongyue, and Dongye.

The second-class female envoys are responsible for daily shopping, serving tea and water, while the third-class female envoys are responsible for washing, sweeping, and cooking.

Although these seven people are not as clever as Bai Zhi and Ban Xia, they are better because they are diligent, quick in their hands and feet, loyal and willing to work.

Among the four rough envoys, Mrs. Zhang is good at cooking and is responsible for the kitchen. Mrs. Li and Mrs. Liu are loyal, courageous and straightforward. They are alert and strong, so they are perfect for guarding the gates and guarding the courtyard.

There is also Mrs. Zhao, who can neither cook nor look after the house, but she is one of the most famous stable ladies in Youyang.

Mrs. Zhao has rich experience in delivering babies and is very familiar with various precautions for women during pregnancy. She has given birth to hundreds of babies.

The most admirable thing is that Mrs. Zhao has rescued pregnant women with dystocia from the edge of life and death time and time again, and extracted teeth from the jaws of the King of Hell.

The people of Youyang all call her a living Bodhisattva who can provide birth control, save lives, and deliver babies to children.

Mrs. Zhao is old and prefers silence to movement. She has always only delivered babies in Youyang City and is not very willing to travel far away. Wei Chen has invited her several times but has not been invited.

Fortunately, Mrs. Zhao had a son who worked as a manager in Shengjia Trading Company. Relying on this relationship, Wei Chen invited this living Bodhisattva to Yangzhou.

She was served delicious food and drinks in Qinyun Yuan until Wei Shuyi gave birth safely, and then she was sent back to Youyang as a gift.

In addition to these thirteen female servants, there are also two clever young men who run errands. Together, there are fifteen servants in total.

Wei Shuyi sat on the bed and listened quietly to Wei Chen's introduction to these people. After Wei Chen finished speaking, she looked at a stack of deeds and a stack of banknotes on the table, and couldn't help but sigh, feeling filled with emotion.

From manpower allocation to money expenditure, Wei Chen has arranged everything in Qinyun Court for her. It can be said that he has good intentions. What reason does she have to refuse?

Worried about standing out and causing trouble?

In fact, without Wei Chen's persuasion, Wei Shuyi understood that she was simply lying to herself.

In the Sheng family, she did not fight or grab, she was cautious and walked on thin ice. Even if she suffered all kinds of grievances, she just swallowed them silently and never said a word.

Sheng Hong rarely visited Qinyun Courtyard, and Wei Shuyi had no intention of staying. Instead, he wished Sheng Hong would leave as soon as possible, so as not to arouse secret jealousy.

Isn't this forbearance enough?

What can be exchanged?

After all, Wei Shuyi was also the daughter of the Sheng family, and she was still pregnant with Sheng Hong's child, but she couldn't even provide basic charcoal-fired food, and she was left in the embarrassing situation of relying on pawnshops and selling jewelry to make ends meet.

If you just swallow your anger, you will only get more oppression.

Why doesn't Wei Shuyi understand this?

But so what?

Wang Ruofu is the eldest lady that the matchmaker is marrying. She is noble and decent.

, the son strives for success, and has the support of his mother's family.

Although Lin Sushuang was a concubine, she also had a son and a daughter. She was doted on by Sheng Hong, and her appearance was not much worse than that of Wang Ruofu, a serious lady.

Facing these two people, Wei Shuyi was unable to fight, and he didn't dare to fight. He could only adopt a "no fight" posture, trying to downplay his sense of existence, and only asked for a small shelter.

But fate is not as good as fate. Sheng Hong's sudden interest inadvertently brought a little life into Wei Shuyi's belly, but also pushed Wei Shuyi to the forefront of the limelight.

Wang Ruofu didn't want to see Wei Shuyi, and Lin Sushuang was even worried that Wei Shuyi's birth of a boy would threaten her status, so she targeted her everywhere.

Wei Shuyi was overwhelmed and exhausted physically and mentally. If it weren't for the child in her belly, she might not be able to hold on anymore.

However, just when Wei Shuyi was about to despair about the future, Wei Chen fell from the sky, rekindling hope in Wei Shuyi's heart.

The manpower and money Wei Chen brought were indeed urgently needed by Wei Shuyi, but they were secondary.

The most important thing is that Wei Chen's appearance told everyone in the Sheng family that Wei Shuyi's mother's family had someone, and they were no longer rootless duckweeds.

Wei Shuyi suddenly realized that when Wei Chen arrived, he had everything.

Wei Shuyi looked at the handsome and elegant young man in front of him, and asked cautiously: "Brother Chen, today is the first time we meet, why do you bother to help me so much?"

"Because you are my aunt!" Wei Chen said matter-of-factly without any hesitation.

Because you are my aunt!

The moment he heard these words, Wei Shuyi felt that the softest place in his heart had been touched, his nose felt sore, and tears welled up in his eyes.

"Oh, aunt, what are you..."

When Wei Chen saw Wei Shuyi crying so hard, he was panicked for a moment. No matter in his previous life or in this life, Wei Chen was most afraid of women crying. As soon as he saw a woman crying, he didn't know what to do.

Whoa!

The thick curtain that separated the inner and outer rooms was suddenly lifted, and Xiao Minglan, who heard the noise, got in in a panic.

Seeing her mother wash her face with tears, Minglan was heartbroken. She quickly asked Xiaotao to bring a handkerchief and climbed onto the bed to wipe away Wei Shuyi's tears.

While gently patting Wei Shuyi's back, she glared at Wei Chen: "You big bad guy, you must have made my mother cry!"

Wei Chen was speechless and could only smile bitterly.

"Minglan, don't be rude to your cousin!"

Wei Shuyi cried for a while and had almost vented his emotions. When he saw Minglan speaking rudely to Wei Chen, he quickly stopped him.Then he waved his hand and told Minglan: "Minglan, this is your cousin Chen. Go and salute your cousin."

"mother--"

Minglan drawled, with a look of grievance and reluctance. But seeing the anger in Wei Shuyi's eyes, Minglan gave in and moved out of bed.

Under Wei Shuyi's gaze, Minglan walked up to Wei Chen with small steps and reluctantly leaned down: "Cousin."

"good."

Wei Chen responded, his face full of joy, and he leaned over to touch Minglan's head.

"If you touch your head, you won't grow taller!"

Minglan didn't dare to hide, so she could only stare at Wei Chen, gritting her teeth and threatening in an angry voice.

Wei Chen just pretended not to notice and continued to rub the dog's head wantonly.

Well, it feels really good.

Wei Chen nodded with satisfaction, then retracted his hand, took out a gold lock pendant and a mutton-fat white jade pendant from his arms, and placed them in Minglan's palm.

"Here, this is a meeting gift from your cousin, take it and play with it!"

Who wants your stuff?

Minglan was very unhappy when her head was pinched. She was about to yell at Wei Chen when she heard Wei Shuyi say in a deep voice: "Minglan, why don't you thank your cousin properly?"

"Oh--"

Minglan had no choice but to accept her fate after her mother's orders. She obediently took the golden lock and jade pendant and bowed: "Thank you cousin for the gift."

Wei Shu said apologetically: "Brother Chen, Ming'er is young and ignorant, don't take offense to me."

"Auntie, you are worrying too much. We are all a family, what's there to be weird about?" Wei Chen waved his hand indifferently, and when he looked at Minglan, his smile was warm and bright, just like the warm sun rising in winter.

Chapter 79

Forest Pavilion.

In the main room, Sheng Hong sat with his head high, and beside him, a woman lowered her head and concentrated on making tea for him.

This woman has a delicate face and a figure like a weak willow Fufeng. Her every frown and smile are full of charm. She is Sheng Hong's favorite concubine, Lin Sushuang.

Lin Sushuang was gentle and served the brewed tea. Sheng Hong picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. It was his favorite heat. He closed his eyes comfortably and savored the aroma of the tea.

Lin Sushuanglian walked slowly and sat next to Sheng Hong, her head slowly resting on his shoulder.

"Honglang~~~"

Her voice was gentle and charming, enough to make a man lose most of his bones.

Sheng Hong couldn't help but loosen his eyebrows, and was about to reach out to wrap his arms around Lin Sushuang to give her some tenderness, when he suddenly saw tears glistening in Lin Sushuang's eyes, and couldn't help but be shocked.

Lin Sushuang blinked and looked at Sheng Hong with tears in her eyes: "Master, what did Shuang'er do wrong to make you angry?"

Sheng Hong was confused and asked quickly: "Where do you start talking about this?"

"Then why did the Lord send so many more people to Qinyun Court, but didn't discuss it with me, the housekeeper, in advance?"

That's what happened!

Sheng Hong suddenly realized.

Pretending to beep is fun, but the mess it leaves behind is troublesome.

In fact, Sheng Hong had already been mentally prepared for this, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came out of Qinyun Courtyard, he went straight to Lin Qige. In less than a quarter of an hour, Lin Sushuang had already heard the news.

Sheng Hong naively thought that it was the dozen or so servants who made too much noise when they went to Qinyun Court, which attracted the attention of the government and everyone knew about it.

But he didn't know that the boy beside him had long been bribed by Lin Sushuang with a lot of money, and his every move was under Lin Sushuang's control.

Sheng Hong was still thinking about how to explain to Lin Sushuang, but Lin Sushuang had put the house keys on the table, knelt down on the ground, wiped her tears and cried to Sheng Hong.

"Shuang'er was originally a helpless person, and it was all thanks to the Lord's mercy that I am what I am today. Since the Lord feels that Shuang'er is not managing the housekeeping well, please ask the Lord to take back the power of the housekeeper, so that I can relax. "

"Shuang'er, why are you doing this?"

Sheng Hong was horrified and quickly leaned over to help Lin Sushuang: "The old lady has always ignored things. The eldest lady has been busy arranging Hualan's wedding these days and has no time to spare. There are many trivial matters at home. Only you, Shuang'er, can take care of me. You How can you bear to abandon me and ignore me!"

Lin Sushuang leaned on Sheng Hong's shoulder and sobbed: "I am just a concubine. The power of the housekeeper is to serve the public. This time, the Lord sent so many servants to Sister Forgiveness's courtyard. I didn't know it at all beforehand. If the people below see this, how can they obey me in the future?"

"This……"

Sheng Hong couldn't help but look embarrassed. He had indeed done something wrong in this matter. At that time, he was praised so highly by Wei Chen that he made the decision immediately. Looking back at it now, he felt regretful in his heart.
