Chapter 173 Return to Shen Mansion
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but widen their eyes. They had no idea that Jiang Sujin had such great abilities. She was much richer than those powerful ladies in the capital.
When Shen's mother heard her words, her expression became stiff.
She is so rich. When did she manage to acquire so much property?
Wait, she just said that she wanted to take her son with her, who is the son of their Shen family.
"Hanhan will naturally stay in the Shen Mansion in the future and become the mainstay of the Shen Mansion."
Jiang Sujin: "Hanhan was born at the cost of my life, and I raised him by myself. No one can take him away from me."
"If Shen Yanfeng can't cherish the relationship between him and me, I naturally can't give him my son."
"If he dares to snatch it from me, I will report it to the emperor. The emperor respectfully calls me Second Mother, so he will certainly not ignore me."
When Shen's mother heard what she said, she became so angry that her face turned even darker.
In front of so many people, she didn't give the Shen family any face at all, and didn't even take her, the mother-in-law, seriously. It was simply outrageous.
Seeing this, the people around him immediately tried to smooth things over, saying, "Mrs. Shen was just joking. Lord Shen will never change his mind."
Jiang Sujin: "It's not easy for a man to be faithful to one woman. A woman should be confident and have the ability to support herself and her children, and naturally be able to cope with various challenges in life."
"I have to say, Madam Shen is right. As long as a woman has the ability, men can spend money however they want. We don't care!"
"Yep!"
For a moment, everyone was praising Jiang Sujin and no one cared about Mrs. Shen's ugly face.
After all, Madam Shen is a first-rank lady and the emperor's second wife. She has also acquired so many properties in the capital. She is truly a high-ranking official.
These people have always been accustomed to currying favor with the powerful. Now that Madam Shen is in great demand, they naturally rush forward to lick her hands.
Mother Shen looked at these people with a dark face. They were vying to praise Jiang Sujin, which made her face instantly become even uglier.
When her son comes back, she will definitely ask him to ask for a first-rank lady for her.
Shen Yanfeng was fighting fiercely in the southwest, and under his leadership, the soldiers' morale was high.
Southwestern Dazi suffered repeated defeats and was forced to retreat, and had to give up the cities it had previously captured.
When the good news reached the capital, the emperor was very pleased and directly promoted Shen Changfeng two levels. He is now a second-rank cabinet scholar.
The good news from Shen Yanfeng also proved that he would be back soon.
It has been half a year now. If we win, I believe we will be able to come back soon.
Caiyue: "Miss, will Lord Shen and his men be back soon?"
Jiang Sujin: "It's hard to say. If we keep getting good news, I believe we will be back soon."
Caiyue couldn't help laughing when she heard that: "That's really great."
Jiang Sujin looked at her smiling face and couldn't help but jokingly asked, "Are you thinking about Lin Feng?"
Caiyue blushed when she heard that: "Ah, ah, I'm not thinking about him, I'm just happy for the young lady."
Jiang Sujin: "When Lin Feng comes back, I will arrange your wedding. You are not young anymore, it is time for you to get married."
Caiyue was so ashamed when she heard this: "I want to accompany you forever."
Jiang Sujin: "I have a house, not too big nor too small, it's just right for you to use as your wedding house. You will have your own home in the future."
Caiyue: "Miss, you have already given me enough rewards. How can I still ask for your house?"
Jiang Sujin: "I have many houses anyway, and this house is close to my house, so it will be convenient for me to travel in the future."
Caiyue said with a touched look on her face: "Thank you very much, young lady, for your reward."
Jiang Sujin: "You have been with me for so many years, I have already regarded you as a lifelong relative."
Caiyue couldn't help but said with red eyes after hearing this: "I naturally treat you as my closest relative. It is my lifelong blessing to meet a good master like you."
Jiang Sujin: "It is my blessing to have you."
Not long after, Old Madam Shen suddenly came to the Jiang Mansion.
Jiang Sujin: "Grandma, how come you suddenly have time to come here?"
Madam Shen: "Su Jin, Grandmother knows that you don't like your mother-in-law."
"But no matter what, we are a family. Since we are a family, you naturally cannot live in your mother's house anymore. This is not good for your reputation. People who don't know may think that our Shen family is dissatisfied with you, which is always not good."
"And Feng'er should be back soon. If he sees you back at the Shen family, he will naturally be very happy."
Jiang Sujin: "But if I go back to the Shen family, I will naturally meet Mrs. Shen. If I cause any unpleasantness, it will hurt the harmony even more."
Madam Shen: "She is paralyzed now, how powerful can she be? She is just talking nonsense."
"Even so, she is no match for you, right?"
Jiang Sujin was not afraid of Shen's mother, she just didn't want to see someone she didn't like.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Old Madam Shen continued, "There is a large piece of vacant land next to the Shen Mansion, and Grandmother has already ordered people to start laying the foundation."
"By next year at the latest, you will be able to live in your own mansion. You will also have children in the future, and then you can live your own lives behind closed doors."
"You just have to bear with it for now and stay in the Shen Mansion for a while. When the place is built, you can move over there, okay?"
Madam Shen's words gave Jiang Sujin enough face. If Jiang Sujin refused again, it would be a bit ungrateful.
In addition, her older brother is also getting married, so it would not be a big deal for her, as the eldest sister-in-law, to live in her parents' home every day.
She could have lived in her own house, but Yang Xiuyun was always worried. Perhaps she was still concerned about her reputation and was afraid that Shen Yanfeng would think too much, so she refused to let her move out.
"Okay, I'll listen to grandma in everything."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Shen couldn't help but pull her hand and laugh.
"Good boy, only when you go back can our Shen family be reunited."
When Jiang Sujin heard this, her expression suddenly curled up unnaturally. After she returned, the Shen Mansion became much more lively.
Old Madam Shen: "What about the child's household registration?"
Jiang Sujin: "Let's wait until Shen Yanfeng comes back. We've been waiting for so long, so we can wait a little longer."
Upon hearing this, Old Madam Shen could only smile awkwardly and nodded: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."
The next day, the Shen family's carriage stopped at the gate of the Jiang family, and Yang Xiuyun personally escorted Jiang Sujin to the carriage.
Regarding Jiang Sujin's return to the Shen Mansion, she had actually advised her privately many times.
How can a couple live separately? At that time, even if Shen Yanfeng lives in his father-in-law's house, it will not look good!
Anyway, they were just doing it for show to others. After the show was over, the couple could move out.
Jiang Sujin thought about it and it made sense, so when Old Madam Shen came, she gave her face.
When Shen's mother heard that Jiang Sujin had returned to the Shen Mansion, she was so angry that she broke a whole set of tea sets.
In the past, she was looking forward to her going back, but now she hopes that she will not go back to the Shen Mansion. Only in this way can she get close to her son and take the opportunity to give him a concubine. Once her son changes his mind, Jiang Sujin will have no chance at all.
