Shen Xin’s family started to pack their luggage that night. The most shocking thing was that before they left, they forced Old Madam Shen to split up the assets in front of the Shen family.
That day, when Shen Xin and his wife were summoned to the palace, Shen Miao’s argument with Old Madam Shen at the entrance of the mansion eventually reached Shen Xin’s ears. Shen Xin was naturally furious that the Shen family couldn’t wait to kick him when he was down. Luo Xueyan was even more angry that she was stupid enough back then to treat this family sincerely.
Trained to be a general since he was young, Shen Xin was quite well-built. Even if all the people of the Shen family joined forces, they were still not his match. Before Old General Shen left, he hoped that this family would be harmonious, but in the end, they still fell apart.
Old Madam Shen kicked up a fuss and snatched away more than half of Old General Shen’s shops and fields. Shen Miao did not mind. All these years, because of poor management, those shops and fields were no longer as profitable as before. Keeping them was a burden. Moreover, they were about to go to Spring City, so these things were useless.
Shen Xin did not lack money. The emperor gave him a lot of money every year. Old Madam Shen originally thought that the money given by Shen Xin had long been cleared out of the account books, but she did not expect Shen Miao to actually find another account book from somewhere. It clearly stated how much money given by Shen Xin was left.
Shen Miao thought that no matter how much she could get back, even if Shen Xin and Luo Xueyan didn’t care about these worldly possessions, it would still be good to disgust Old Madam Shen.
Chen Ruoqiu was also very angry. Now that she was in charge of the expenditure and the money was already very tight, if Shen Xin still took away a portion of it, the Shen family would have to cut down on their expenses. If anything went wrong, Old Madam Shen would definitely take it out on her.
Shen Yue was also angry. Over the past few days, she had been watching Chen Ruoqiu work herself to death over money. Shen Yue, who had been raised to disdain money, had also changed. Initially, she did not care about money, but now, she felt that she had to compete for it. She could not say anything to the seniors, so she looked at Shen Miao and pretended to be worried. “I don’t know when Fifth Sister will be back. I heard that Spring City is short of supplies. It’s better to bring more money.”
She was clearly mocking Shen Miao for going to a remote desert. Luo Xueyan was about to flare up when she saw Shen Miao smile and say, “That’s right, but the price of goods in the capital is very high. Without His Majesty’s reward in the future, Second Sister, you need to learn to be frugal.” Her gaze landed on Shen Yue’s wrist and she said with a smile, “After all, my father will not be able to send you a bracelet in the future.”
Shen Yue was stunned. She looked at the bracelet on her wrist and blushed. That bracelet was one of the rewards Shen Xin received. Every year, when Shen Xin’s reward was handed in to the Shen family, Shen Yue would also choose some beautiful jewelry. She didn’t expect Shen Miao to say it out loud in front of everyone that the bracelet Shen Yue was wearing belonged to Shen Xin. Was Shen Miao asking her to take off the jewelry and return it to its original owner?
However, this bracelet was extremely precious, and Shen Yue was unwilling to take it off and return it to Shen Xin.
Shen Miao seemed to have seen through her mind. She smiled and said, “Sister, you don’t have to return this bracelet. We won’t take back what we gave out. It’s just that… I wonder if you will have such a good bracelet in the future.”
