Chapter 1617
Shi Anxia winked at Bei Hui while speaking. Bei Hui understood and asked someone to bring a box, which was opened and full of account books.
Shi Chengyi flipped through a few books, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "Xia'er, your uncle is grateful to you."
He was devastated because of Nanny Huang, and he never recovered. He thought he was ruined, but unexpectedly, there was light at the end of the tunnel, and he could show his talents again. How could he not be happy?
He stood up and bowed deeply to his niece, "I swear to you here that I will do my best to do everything well."
Shi Anxia returned the greeting, and the two sat down again to discuss.
Of course, she would not really allow Shi Chengyi to dominate the Shi family alone. "My sister-in-law Wei is the eldest daughter of the Wei family and controls the economic lifeline of both the Shi and Wei families. She is young and cannot think things through as well as my uncle. I hope my uncle will bear with her."
This means that if the two of them have a conflict, Wei's opinion will prevail. They need the great uncle's understanding and tolerance, but also the great uncle's advice, so as not to go astray.
Shi Chengyi actually discovered from the scope of responsibilities in the booklet that although he seemed to be at the helm, in fact, the eldest daughter of the Wei family was the one who really held power.
Especially since the national porcelain originally belonged to her Wei family, and the Shi family just benefited from it.
Despite this, Shi Chengyi was still grateful and was not unhappy because someone was holding him back.
Even in the court, there needs to be balance and mutual suppression. He has been in the court for many years and can understand this principle.
In fact, Wei was holding him back, and vice versa, he was also holding Wei back. It was not a one-man show.
Shi Anxia was distracted, thinking about how he over-reliant on and trusted his uncle in his previous life. He was like that at that time, too, and entrusted him with important tasks.
Even her uncle Tang Chuyu was ranked behind.
She had never thought of asking someone to check the power in her hands. The good thing was that Shi Chengyi was indeed capable, and he had accomplished many great things while traveling outside, so he was capable of great responsibilities.
The downside is that it fostered Shi Chengyi's self-righteous desire for control. His excessive power gave rise to arrogance, and he even repeatedly exceeded his authority.
Shi Anxia will never make such a mistake again in her life. Not only will she push her sister-in-law out, she will also set up various perfect rules in the Shi family to prevent future troubles.
After Shi Chengyi left, Shi Anxia ordered Bei Hui to deliver a roll of newly drafted family rules to the patriarch.
After reading it, the clan leader sighed and said, "With this girl, there is no need to worry about the prosperity of our family! Pass the order down, from today on, everyone in the Shi family must act according to this, and those who violate it will be severely punished."
In any case, Shi Chengyi came back to life, and when he returned home he started talking more to his wife and children.
During dinner, he said one thing, "I'm happy to get married."
Yu Sujun's eyebrows twitched slightly, but she didn't respond and continued to eat with her head down.
Shi Anxue was quick to ask, "Father, who did Sister Anxin marry?"
Shi Chengyi was just trying to show his goodwill to Yu Sujun by talking to his daughter, so he answered patiently, "It's Lu Yonghua. It's..."
Shi Anxue suddenly understood, "Oh, I know! It's the one that Madam Huang wanted to marry Sister Anxin to."
Shi Chengyi: “…”
Can we not mention Nanny Huang?
Shi Anxueren was a smart kid, she had heard a lot of things here. She was still young before, and adults didn't talk behind her back.
Now she knew the stakes involved. "Sister Anxin is really disobedient! Mother tried every means to prevent her from discussing marriage with that man, but she didn't understand her mother's painstaking efforts and even thought that her mother was harming her. In my opinion..."
Yu Sujun frowned and interrupted her daughter, "Eat your meal! Why are you talking so much!"
Shi Anxue pouted, "That's right! Mother treats Sister Anxin better than me, but she doesn't appreciate it!"
Shi Yunzhou, who was not talkative, rarely responded, "She will have her time to suffer."
