After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Shen Jinyao promised to sell potatoes only to the Shen family and the military camp, and not to anyone else, only seeds.

After Shen Jinyao's explanation, even the eldest lady understood what Shen Jinyao meant.

The eldest lady smiled and said, "Jin Yao is still sensible."

Everyone laughed, as if they had forgotten the last time the eldest lady forced Shen Jinyao to pay for the land occupied by potatoes.

After Shen Jinyao finished speaking, everyone understood what was going on, and one by one they pulled their sons and daughters to their side.

For a moment, the whole house was filled with laughter.

Shen Tingyao secretly pulled Aunt Yun aside and put a handkerchief in Aunt Yun's hand.

Aunt Yun touched the things in her handkerchief and looked at Shen Tingyao in surprise.

Aunt Yun: "Ting'er, what is this?"

Shen Tingyao whispered, "Auntie, this is the bracelet I bought for you."

Compared to hair accessories like hairpins, Shen Tingyao felt that buying jewelry would be more suitable for Aunt Yun now.

After Shen Tingyao got the deposit, she took Zhixue to buy the bracelet.

Aunt Yun's eyes were red with emotion.

She didn't dare cry, after all, that would attract everyone's attention.

Aunt Yun held back her tears and her lips trembled slightly.

She asked in a low voice: "Auntie doesn't need these things anymore. When you have money, buy what you like."

At this time, Shen Zhixue also came over. He smiled and said, "Auntie, you don't know. Sister didn't buy anything for herself this time."

Aunt Yun's face was filled with shock.

"Tingyao..."

Shen Tingyao turned thirteen after the Chinese New Year. Her favorite things since she was a child were gold and silver jewelry, as well as rouge and powder.

Those beautiful clothes and pretty jewelry even filled Shen Tingyao's boudoir.

Most of the money to buy these things came from Aunt Yun.

The other part is the share distributed by the public to the young men and women of each family.

Shen Tingyao had never had any money in her hands, and she didn't know what it felt like to be without money.

Shen Tingyao: "It's nothing, Auntie. I just like something I like more."

Aunt Yun: "What do you like more?"

If you come across something you like more, shouldn’t you buy it?

Aunt Yun just heard from Jin Yao that Ting Yao and Zhi Xue had made a lot of money.

Shen Tingyao nodded and said, "That's silver. Auntie, I think silver is really good now. Why didn't I like silver then?"

After hearing this, Aunt Yun felt her eyes go dark and she almost fainted.

How could her daughter, who was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting and was both talented and beautiful, fall in love with silver?

Shen Tingyao became more and more excited as she spoke, "Auntie, making money feels so good. Saving money feels even better. When I save more, what can I not buy?"

Aunt Yun opened her mouth and finally said, "Okay, as long as you are happy."

Shen Zhixue smiled and lowered his head, then patted his aunt's arm, signaling her not to worry too much.

In a corner of the room, Shen Jinyao watched the entire conversation between Shen Tingyao and Aunt Yun.

She thought about it and walked to the middle again.

The Second Madam saw Shen Jinyao and asked, "What's wrong, Jin'er?"

Everyone stopped when they heard the second lady's question.

The eldest master: "What's wrong, Jin'er?"

The Third Master was also a little curious, "Jin'er probably has something else to say, right?"

Shen Jinyao smiled and said, "Third Uncle is right. I remembered something very important."

The Second Master also became curious, "Jin'er, tell me about it."

Everyone looked at Shen Jinyao, and they were all wondering what the important thing Shen Jinyao was talking about was.

Shen Jinyao: "I see everyone is very happy today, and this is also the happiest day for everyone since our family was raided."

Everyone nodded, and then there was silence.

They all thought of the old lady at the same time.

It would be great if the old lady were still alive.

Shen Jinyao naturally thought of this, but she didn't want to stir up everyone's sadness.

So she quickly continued, "What I want to talk about today is another happy event."

"what?"

"happy event?"

"What happy event?"

"What other happy events are there? There's nothing big happening in our family."

Apart from a few kids going out and earning money with their own abilities, nothing seemed to matter.

The eldest lady said: "Jin Yao, please tell me what's going on. If you don't tell me now, my aunt will start to think too much."

After the eldest lady finished speaking, everyone started laughing.

The Third Lady: "That's right, Jin'er, tell me what the good news is."

Shen Jinyao stopped keeping the secret and said, "Of course it's our Aunt Yun's wedding. Mother has wanted to mention it for a long time."

After Shen Jinyao's reminder, everyone finally reacted.

What Shen Jinyao wanted to say was that she wanted to mention Aunt Yun as a co-wife.

Aunt Yun was stunned after hearing this. She could never imagine that someone would bring up this matter again.

What I didn't expect was that the person who brought up this matter was Shen Jinyao.

After listening to Shen Jinyao, the second master first looked at his wife.

He has not forgotten this incident.

The old lady had mentioned it to him before she died.

But the house was being built at the time and the old lady was always in poor health, so he didn't mention it again.

After the old lady passed away, the family has indeed been busy, and his wife has also contributed a lot to the family.

He didn't know how to bring it up.

He was worried that his wife and Jin'er would be unhappy.

The others also looked at the Second Madam, but she stood up.

She walked towards Aunt Yun, took Aunt Yun's hand, and said, "Yun'er, you won't blame me for telling you this now, right?"

"Today is a happy day, and it's indeed time to talk about it today."

"Master, let's find a date to do it for Yun'er, right?"

Shen Jinyao looked at the second wife and remembered that she had asked her mother before she left home.

"Mother, do you have any plans regarding raising Concubine Yun to a co-wife?"

The Second Lady: "I've been thinking about this too, and I plan to discuss it with you after the New Year."

"Mother, I support your idea. If you agree, I agree."

The Second Madam smiled with relief, "This is the old lady's last wish. Besides, Aunt Yun is not a bad person. We are old, so let it be."

Shen Jinyao could clearly see that there was a lot of pain in the Second Madam's smile.

The Second Madam sighed, "Alas, we've come this far over the years. Even if I have any complaints, I can only blame your father."

"Mother, if you can't open your mouth, I will help you speak."

The second wife nodded with tears in her eyes.

Several of them lived in the second house and met each other every day. This matter had always been a thorn in the second wife's heart.

Once this matter was resolved, she felt relieved.

Shen Jinyao understood who would be willing to share her husband.

But this is a feudal society, and there is also the mother-in-law's last wish.

So many people heard and saw it. Even if the mother didn't say anything or mention it, there would be many people talking behind her back.

The elder master stood up and said with a smile, "Haha, if that's the case, then let's do it on the 16th day of the first lunar month."

"Okay."

Just then, there was a noise outside.

"Master and Madam, look who's here."
