The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Shen Xianli reached out and rubbed his forehead.

Song Shengfu's hand that was pounding her legs slowed down. "If you don't want to, I'll just go back to them. Others will just say that your Yue family doesn't agree."

This way, there will be fewer difficulties in official work.

Shen Xianli sat up straight in panic, "How can this be? How can I let my mother bear such a bad reputation for me?"

The man will name the person he remarries, and finally the original wife's family will examine the woman's character to see if she is suitable for being a successor.

If the original wife's family does not agree, then the new wife will have to be selected again.

There are also cases where the original wife's family deliberately prevents the man from remarrying in order to prevent their grandchildren from being bullied. Such relationships usually become very strained, and the reputation of the original wife's family is completely lost.

"I once promised Jingwen that I would find a woman who could take care of Wei Jie'er and Xuan Ge'er and bring her back home. Since I promised her, I will not break my promise."

After all these years, when Shen Xianli mentioned this matter again, his expression was calm, without the big emotional fluctuations he had before.

The more you experience, the more open-minded you become.

"But as for the choice of stepmother, please help the two children keep an eye out. As a husband, I can only give my second wife the respect she deserves. She will be able to manage the household affairs as soon as she enters the house. As for the rest..."

"I can't give it to you."

The conditions were too harsh, and no good girl from any family was willing to marry him.

He remembered that he had a child in his previous life, "What if she wants another child?"

Shen Xianli smiled calmly, "Shi Yu only has two children in this life, I'm afraid he is not destined to have children."

Song Shengfu understood.

This is not easy to find. There is no chance of finding a girl like that, and you can't bring harm to her.

"If you regret it, tell me earlier."

Shen Xianli shook his head. He had no regrets.

"Mother, please help Shi Yu take care of the two children."

Song Shengfu couldn't help but almost rolled her eyes.

If she didn't like the two children, how could she be such a sucker.

So just catch her and grab her.

In the previous life, I was a Bodhisattva, and in this life, I help my cheap son-in-law take care of the children.

"When I'm old and can't walk anymore, who are you going to turn to?"

Shen Xianli gently took the meridian hammer from his mother-in-law's hand and personally massaged his mother's calves.

"Shi Yu was born with few parents, both of whom passed away early. Fortunately, my mother has always been there for me. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't be where I am today. When you're old, if you don't mind, I'll take you in. Wouldn't it be okay for you to stay in the Shen Mansion and spend your retirement there?"

Duan Jingzong and Duan Jing'an in the capital couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over their bodies, as if someone was staring at them.

They didn't know that someone was trying to snatch their old mother away from them.

Song Shengfu was amused and laughed, "Forget it, since you call me mother, you are my son. Sister Wei and Brother Xuan are both my grandchildren. We are all family. It is my duty to help you."

"I've made up my mind. Sister Wei will find her someone with a compatible personality, preferably one with a similar family background. She was raised in the uncle's house, and because of that, others will look up to her. It doesn't matter whether she has a stepmother or not."

Shen Xianli listened silently and nodded in agreement.

His idea was simple, which was to find a second wife to take care of the family business. After Xuan'er grew up and got married, he could hand over the family business to his daughter-in-law.

Song Shengfu could see it, so after a moment's thought, she continued, "It's not easy for women in this world, especially when getting married, which is like being reborn a second time. When you marry again, I hope you won't be planning for two children, but for a good match with her."

"Jingwen is my daughter. I know you have a very good relationship with her, and I'm afraid no one else can interfere. As a mother, I naturally hope that you will always be loyal to her until death. But as a woman, I hope that the future mistress of the Shen Mansion can receive enough care and love from her husband."

If not, then just pretend she never said this today.

If there was, she would tell that person clearly. For a woman, the Shen Mansion was not a home, but more like a hell.

Those who are willing to join the game will not be persuaded by kind words.

But she will definitely give more consideration to Wei Jie'er and Xuan Ge'er, so it is very difficult to find a suitable candidate.

Then Shen Xianli should just live alone for the rest of his life.

Shen Xianli thought the same thing. He put forward such harsh conditions because he was truly thinking about his two children.

With a mistress in the family, there is someone to take care of the farm and shop, and the family business will not be abandoned.

From now on, the two children will have support behind them, and at least they will not be short of money.

And there is Sister Wei. If she gets married in the future, even if she encounters any problems, it will be good for her to have someone to support her.

After losing my mother, many things are hard to say and I have to keep them to myself.

It's okay now that my mother-in-law is here, but if...

He was always afraid that Sister Wei would not live a happy life.

He also thought that even if he had a stepmother, if Sister Wei was not close to him, he would probably have nothing to say, because after all, she was not his biological daughter.

There is no such thing as having the best of both worlds.

"Shi Yu understands everything mother said."

Shen Xianli kept his mother-in-law's words in mind, and at the same time felt that his mother-in-law was the number one woman in the world.

How could a mother from an ordinary family consider a second wife? She just wanted to find a weak and easy-to-control person to take good care of her two children.

Song Shengfu is not the real mother of Song, so of course she looks at things more objectively.

Next, when she faced the ladies who came, she had something to say.

"Of course I have to look for it, but I have to ask for it..."

"Of course there are some requirements. Just tell me directly."

"Look, my son-in-law is good-looking, so my future wife must be good-looking too."

Everyone agreed, nodding in agreement. "That's for sure."

"Also, given his current official position, he doesn't have high requirements for his future wife's family background, but it would be best if he finds someone of equal status."

If the families are of equal status, that's not a problem.

"My son-in-law said that once she comes in, she will be the head of the family and will be in charge of the family business."

When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed.

Both of Shen Juncheng's parents were gone, and he had no elders above him, so he had no one to pressure him when he entered. Although he had two children, the elder one got married when she grew up, and the younger one was raised by her maternal grandparents, so there was no problem.

Moreover, Lord Shen has said that he will be able to take over the stewardship as soon as he enters the house.

This is a good match, a great match.

You can't find it even with a lantern.

Many people were tempted.

Song Shengfu saw it and continued blowing.

"My son-in-law doesn't have anyone to serve him in his room, so it's a bit lonely after marrying in."

They knew that he had no concubines, but they didn't know that he didn't even have a servant. After all, this was a private matter.

I've heard before that Lord Shen and his deceased first wife had a very deep relationship, but I didn't expect their love to be so deep that they don't even have anyone to serve them now.

After hearing these words, the ladies' eyes lit up again and again.

However, the next sentence made them freeze in their tracks, and they almost thought they had misheard.
