Chapter 239 The Low Emotional Intelligence Prince Consort is Taking Shortcuts Again (23)

The sun was high in the sky at the entrance of the village. The villagers who had finished their busy farming work finally had some free time. The gossip team gathered again under the big willow tree at the entrance of the village.

"Hey, have you heard that the old lady from the Shen family went to Shen Er's house to make trouble again." A woman suddenly said in a low voice.

"Everyone knows about this. Ever since the top scholar in the high school entrance exam from the Shen family married the princess, the two elders of the Shen family have been going to the Shen family to make trouble. Who doesn't know what their intentions are?" The woman next to her nodded.

"Well, you say, it's been so long, why hasn't Mr. Shen come back yet?"

"Who knows? If you ask me, Mr. Shen has always looked down on others. Maybe he dislikes his family?" The woman with a mean face sneered.

The others were silent. Although they thought Shen Zuixue would not do such a thing, the fact was obvious: Shen Zuixue did not come back.

"If you ask me, Shen Er and the others were fools for getting away just for the sake of their two children. Look, now everything is lost, right?"

The mean woman continued to say that she had some relationship with the eldest sister-in-law of the Shen family, and had always been at odds with the second sister-in-law of the Shen family. Wasn't this just an opportunity to squeeze her out?

However, as soon as she finished speaking, everyone else's attention was attracted by the black spot selected at the entrance of the village.

"Hey, look, what is that? It looks like a carriage that only the gentlemen and ladies in town ride in."

"I don't think even the county magistrate's sedan chair is this luxurious, right?"

As everyone was staring at it, the carriage stopped at the entrance of the village.

Su Zai gave everyone a "well-behaved" smile, "Aunts, do you know how to get to the Shen family?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. The Shen family was a big family in their village, but they had never heard of anyone having such a wealthy relative.

"Little brother, which Shen family are you talking about?" The aunt who spoke first had some guesses in her mind. If we were to talk about the Shen family that was most likely to be related to the powerful, it would be the second Shen family.

"It's Mr. Shen's home." Su showed a smile that was similar to Rong Youyan's on his face.

"Our princess is accompanying the top scholar back home to pick up the master and his wife."

Su Zai smiled obediently on his face, but glanced at the woman who had just spoken harshly without making any expression.

How could Shen Zuixue not know where her home was? The reason she spoke up was just to interrupt their gossip and give them a slap in the face.

"Little Shen is back?" The aunt was surprised. She was different from Lin Ruoying just now. She had a good relationship with Shen Zuixue's mother Su Zhi. Seeing that Shen Zuixue was not like the rumors, she was naturally happy for her friend.

"Hey, let me take you there." Chen He immediately took over the task of leading the way, and Su Zai did not refuse. Seeing this, everyone had no intention of continuing to chat, so they followed him to Shen Er's house.

Lin Ruoying rolled her eyes, deliberately took two steps back, and turned to go to Shen Er's hometown.

The carriage had a smooth journey and soon stopped in front of the Shen family's door.

There is a saying that goes, a scholar is poor but a juren is rich. Although Shen Zuixue's imperial examination cost his family a lot of money and they lived a tight life, the family's life soon became prosperous since Shen Zuixue passed the examination.

The Shen family has now built a brick house, which is one of the best in the village.

The carriage stopped at the door, and soon the people in the house heard the noise and came out to check, and saw Shen Zuixue helping a man get off the carriage.

"Hey, Shen Er's family, look who's back!"

A greeting broke the silence in the air and the whole village was in an uproar.
