The second wife is charming to the bone, and Mr. Shen is very honest

When Shen Yanfeng entered the palace, the assassins had already rushed out.

He didn't care about anything else and took his men to chase the assassins.

Fortunately, the old emperor was safe and the assassins did not get close to him.

The prime minister and others knew that the emperor was frightened, so they naturally joined other ministers to go to the palace to pay their respects to the emperor.

The old emperor has not met anyone and he doesn't trust anyone now. He needs to take this opportunity to observe the situation and see who are the treacherous ones and who are the good ones.

"Send Lord Jiang to see you!"

"It's the Emperor!"

It was a sunny morning and Jiang Sujin got up early to wash and dress herself.

On the second day of the wedding, Jiang Sujin had to serve morning tea to her parents-in-law, so she naturally didn't dare to be late.

It's not that she is flattering, but she has to bow her head under the eaves. It's nothing more than a few smiling faces. In the past, when she talked to customers, she smiled so hard that her face was stiff every day, but she still had to work hard without complaint.

Now her parents-in-law and the old lady are her superiors. As long as she has a good relationship with her superiors, her life in the Shen Mansion will not be too difficult in the future.

It's useless to act noble and arrogant. It will only make you a target and a thorn in their eyes.

Only by getting along well with the elders in the mansion can she live comfortably in this mansion.

When Jiang Sujin arrived at her parents-in-law's yard, they hadn't cleaned up yet and the old lady hadn't come yet either.

In the inner room, Madam Shen was combing her hair slowly and leisurely, letting the maid help her apply indigo.

"Madam, the young mistress has arrived."

"She's sensible."

At this time, Su Jinyue was already in the lady's inner room.

"Aunt, she is so attentive just because she is afraid that you will dislike her."

Mrs. Shen: "I hope she can keep pretending."

Su Jinyue: "How is that possible?"

Mrs. Shen: "There are indeed few people as filial as you."

Su Jinyue: "My cousin is busy with official duties, and Yue'er just wants to fulfill his filial duty on his behalf."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen couldn't help but curl her lips and said, "When Feng'er comes back, I'll talk to him about asking him to take you as his concubine."

Su Jinyue couldn't help but get red in the eyes when she heard this: "Thank you, auntie, Yue'er."

Mrs. Shen: "Silly child, don't cry. Your aunt will feel sorry for you."

Hearing this, Su Jinyue immediately smiled with tears in her eyes: "Don't cry, Yue'er."

Half an hour later, Old Madam Shen, Father Shen, and Madam Shen took their seats one after another.

"Granddaughter-in-law pays respects to grandmother, father and mother!" Jiang Sujin bowed slightly.

Madam Shen glanced at Jiang Sujin, and then couldn't help but snorted coldly: "She is quite pretty."

"Grandma, thank you for the compliment."

Madam Shen: "Sometimes it is not necessarily a good thing for a woman to be too beautiful."

Su Jinyue: "It is because of my cousin's wife's beauty that Master Xiao fell in love with her!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but curse in her heart. This woman would feel uncomfortable if she didn't mention this matter for a day.

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Shen could not help but said angrily: "Now that you have married into the Shen family, you are a member of the Shen family. If you continue to be shameless like before, I will order someone to break your legs."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin immediately knelt on the ground.

"Grandmother, you misunderstood. My granddaughter-in-law never accepted Mr. Xiao's love from the beginning to the end. It was just that Mr. Xiao was the son of the prime minister, and my granddaughter-in-law didn't dare to offend him. Later, my granddaughter-in-law jumped into the river because she couldn't stand the intrusion of rumors."

"Fortunately, my granddaughter-in-law was saved by her husband. This is what I consider to be the most important person in my granddaughter-in-law's life."

"My granddaughter-in-law fell in love with her husband at first sight, so she threatened to die to force my mother to help her seize this marriage."

"I am willing to serve my husband like a slave for the rest of my life to repay him for saving my life. This is also a way to fulfill my deep love for my husband."

When Jiang Sujin said this, her eyes were already tearful and she couldn't stop crying.

Seeing Jiang Sujin crying, Old Madam Shen couldn't help but feel moved.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Shen naturally couldn't scold her any more.

Su Jinyue looked at Jiang Sujin's face with a dark face. She swore that she must be acting, and she must find an opportunity to tear off her mask.

Father Shen suddenly cleared his throat and said, "Okay, that matter has passed, and no one is allowed to mention it again. Since you are already a member of my Shen family, the Shen family will naturally protect you. Of course, when you act outside, you must also pay attention to your words and deeds, and don't lose face for the Shen family."

Jiang Sujin: "I, your daughter-in-law, thank you, father. I will definitely follow your teachings and will never bring shame to the Shen family. I will also create more branches for our Shen family as soon as possible."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen nodded and said, "Well, that's right. Your mission is to expand the Shen family as soon as possible."

Jiang Sujin: "My daughter-in-law didn't see her husband come back all night, and she was really worried, so she came to her father and mother early. I wonder if there is any news about her husband yet?"

Give me a definite answer whether he is dead or not!

Father Shen: "Yanfeng went to chase the assassin. He is a serious person. He will not come back if he cannot catch the assassin."

Hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but wipe her tears with a handkerchief: "I don't know if my husband eats well or has enough clothes to wear?"

Upon hearing this, Old Madam Shen couldn't help but sigh: "You should get up too and show the young lady a seat."

Jiang Sujin was finally able to stand up. When she helped Caiyue stand up, she couldn't help but stagger a little.

After Jiang Sujin sat down to rest for a while, the servants came with morning tea.

Jiang Sujin knelt on the ground again and served them tea in turn.

Su Jinyue looked at Jiang Sujin with jealousy. She had appeased the three people with a self-torture tactic, which was too easy for her.

After finishing her tea, Jiang Sujin took advantage of the presence of Father Shen and hurriedly said, "Father and Mother, it seems that my daughter-in-law's dowry was put away by the housekeeper yesterday. I saw that there is a storehouse in my Wutong Courtyard, so let the housekeeper move all the dowry to Wutong Courtyard!"

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Shen's face instantly darkened: "You've been crying here for a long time, so this is your ultimate goal?"

Jiang Sujin: "Mother, my daughter-in-law belongs to my husband. What belongs to my daughter-in-law belongs to my husband. When my daughter-in-law has a child, these things will belong to the child as well."

"Grandma, do you think my daughter-in-law is right?"

Madam Shen glanced at Madam Shen, and then couldn't help but pursed her lips: "That's the truth."

Madam Shen: "Since it belongs to Yanfeng, it's the same if mother keeps it, isn't it?"

Jiang Sujin: "Mother is right, but my daughter-in-law will have children in the future, and the expenses of these children will increase. My daughter-in-law can't ask the housekeeper for money every time she spends money."

"A daughter-in-law naturally hopes to have both sons and daughters in the future. When the daughters get married, the daughter-in-law, as a mother, will naturally give all her dowry to them."

Mrs. Shen: "When that time comes, it won't be too late for me to give it to you."

Jiang Sujin was not in a hurry after hearing this, but looked at Old Madam Shen: "Grandma, is your dowry also with mother?"

When Madam Shen heard this, her expression instantly became unnatural: "Of course not."

Jiang Sujin: "Dowry is the dowry given to the daughter by her parents. I heard that dowry is a woman's lifetime pocket money." As she said this, she couldn't help but look at Shen's father.

Father Shen immediately looked at Madam Shen with an unnatural expression: "Madam, give her the dowry!"

Madam Shen said with a sullen face, "On the first day after you got married, you came to your mother-in-law to ask for your dowry. Jiang Sujin, you are really something!"

Jiang Sujin said calmly, "Mother, you are worrying too much. I have to respect my parents-in-law and buy new clothes for my children. If I don't want to be bothered, I will ask the housekeeper for money."

"Or I can ask my uncle and aunt to borrow money. Even if I do, sometimes my uncle and aunt are not available. If that doesn't work, I can only look for dignitaries outside the mansion..."

"Okay, I'll give it to you." Mrs. Shen said unhappily.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Sujin couldn't help but said with a bright smile: "Thank you for your consideration, mother. I have the list, so please don't bother counting it. I will take my leave first." After saying that, she turned around and left.

The three of them stared at each other, totally at a loss for words.

You say she is cunning, but she says everything she says makes sense. You say she is honest, but she has not suffered any loss.
