The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs
Chapter 21 I am afraid that my elder sister is not only powerless but also unloved
After hearing what Shen Qingli said, Shen Qinglan played with the peony fan in her hand with her slender fingers. She raised her phoenix eyes slightly and looked at Shen Qingli, not missing the malice in Shen Qingli's eyes.
Immediately, Shen Qinglan chuckled, did not answer, but asked in a gentle voice:
"From what Second Sister said, I guess the Li family trusts you very much and has already handed over the management of the Li family to you?"
Shen Qingli's face suddenly looked a little ugly.
Everyone knows that Li Youyun is only the eldest son of the second branch of the Li family. Even if the second master of the Li family favors his concubine and kills his wife, he can only show off his power behind closed doors in the second branch.
But the Li family is now ruled by the eldest branch of the Li family, and the power of the family is in the hands of the eldest branch's aunt. There is no way that it will fall into the hands of her, a newly married bride, and the wife of a concubine...
Shen Qingli's face turned green, and she sneered:
"Our husband is very capable. He will surely pass the imperial examination and become a first-class tutor in the future. Even if I want to be the head of the family, I will be the head of the future tutor's family!"
Shen Qingli was filled with resentment whenever she thought of how majestic Shen Qinglan was in her previous life when she became the wife of a first-rank tutor, and how miserable she was like a drowned dog at that time.
But it doesn’t matter. In this life, since she has married Li Youyun, she will be the only one who will enjoy the glory in this life!
Shen Qinglan knew Shen Qingli too well. This second sister of hers...
Even if I live my life again, my mind is still so easy to guess.
"Second sister is good at being lenient to herself and strict with others." Shen Qinglan looked at Shen Qingli teasingly.
Shen Qingli, who was ridiculed by Shen Qinglan, wanted to go up and tear Shen Qinglan's mouth, but when she thought of the lesson she had just received from Shen Qinglan at the door, she did not dare to do so.
However, Shen Qingqian, the fourth daughter of the third house who had always been on good terms with Shen Qingli, spoke up for Shen Qingli:
"The Li family is a century-old family with many branches and leaves. To be the head of a family, one needs to have a lot of experience, but you are different, big sister..."
"The Zhan Palace is sparsely populated. If you are favored by the old Princess Zhan, how could she not give you the power to run the household?"
"But, I heard that the War King has a childhood sweetheart who he grew up with, and they are very close..."
At this point, Shen Qingqian's eyes flickered, and she sighed, as if she was thinking about Shen Qinglan.
"If the War King comes back by then, I'm afraid that my eldest sister will not only have no power but also no favor. Tsk, how can I endure these long days and stay alone in my empty room for the rest of my life?"
When Shen Qingli heard Shen Qingqian speaking for her, her mood immediately improved a lot and she looked at Shen Qingqian with gratitude.
When the others heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other and then at Shen Qinglan, with some showing gloating and some showing sympathy.
Shen Qinglan, however, seemed to be oblivious to the looks from everyone. He just glanced at Shen Qingli and Shen Qingqian calmly, his eyes slightly curved, and said in a gentle voice:
"Fourth sister is still unmarried, and she keeps talking about love and staying alone in her empty room. This is really inappropriate. Third uncle has always been upright. If he knew what sister Qingqian said, I'm afraid he would..."
When Shen Qinglan said this, he couldn't help but sigh and shook his head, with a look of sympathy on his face.
When Shen Qingqian heard this, his expression changed slightly. He was only thinking about satisfying himself for a moment and almost forgot about his father's temper.
If her father knew about this, he would not let her off just because she is a girl. He would probably skin her alive!
Perhaps because the atmosphere was awkward, Shen Qingyao, the third daughter of the second house, could not help but open her mouth to smooth things over for everyone:
"Today is the day when the eldest sister and the second sister return home. The second sister and the fourth sister are probably just worried about the eldest sister, so they said something wrong. Don't blame me, eldest sister."
Upon hearing this, Shen Qingqian glared at Shen Qingyao, and said in a low voice with some disdain: "You, a bastard's daughter, are expected to be a good person?"
Shen Qingyao's face was embarrassed for a moment, but she could only bite her lip, lowered her eyes and said nothing, but her hands hanging at both sides were slightly clenched, and her fingers turned white.
Shen Qingli calmed down a bit at this time. Seeing that Shen Qingqian was at a disadvantage, he took a sip of tea and said slowly:
"Isn't what you said too serious? It's just a private conversation between sisters. Besides, my fourth sister cares about me. If I take it so seriously, it will only make people feel sad and wronged."
Shen Qinglan leaned against the back of the chair, his eyes moving, looking at Shen Qingli meaningfully, and said with a smile:
"Second sister and fourth sister are doing this for my own good, so am I not doing this for their own good? If this hurts them, I'm afraid they will become estranged from me, right?"
Shen Qingli and Shen Qingqian were speechless and their faces looked very interesting.
However, Shen Qinglan turned the handle of his fan calmly and said in a different tone:
"But you two sisters really don't have to worry. My mother-in-law is a kind person. She handed over the power of the household to me on the second day of my wedding."
As soon as Shen Qinglan said this, everyone couldn't help but exclaim.
After all, no one would think that the new bride would be able to take charge of the family as soon as she entered the house, especially in a family like Prince Zhan's Mansion.
But now Shen Qinglan actually said that the old Princess Zhan handed over the power of the household to her on the second day of her wedding?
Especially Shen Qingli, who stared at Shen Qinglan in disbelief, her hands tightly clenched on the chair, and almost stood up.
"Eldest sister, please don't talk nonsense. How can the power to be the head of the family be obtained so easily?"
When Shen Qingli said this, her face was a little distorted.
In her previous life, if she had been given the power to manage the household from the beginning, how could she have been teased by those three brats in the mansion?
How could he allow himself to be bullied by the sister-in-law of the Huo family?
Finally, I will not be tricked by that bitch Xie Wanying because of this!
The old Princess Zhan is simply an old immortal, how could she possibly give up the power to be the head of the family?
Thinking of this, Shen Qingli felt that Shen Qinglan was just talking nonsense!
"That's right. I heard that the old Princess Zhan is in good health. Why would she give the power to be the head of the family to you?" Shen Qingqian agreed with a frown.
Shen Qinglan really enjoyed seeing Shen Qingli's defense break down, but before she could open her mouth, she heard Huo Junyu slamming the table and standing up.
"Bang" sound!
This immediately frightened all the young ladies of the Shen family.
"My mother was married into the palace through formal marriage, so she is the mistress of the palace. My grandmother is old and wants to spend her later years in peace. Isn't it normal for her to give the power of the family to my mother?"
Although Huo Junyu is small in stature, he has a very imposing aura. When he said these words, his aura was fully on display.
He glanced at everyone, and finally set his eyes on Shen Qingli, sneering:
"You are incompetent, so do you think that everyone in the world is as incompetent as you? I just let it go for my mother's sake, but you keep causing trouble again and again. Do you really think I am a vegetarian?"
Shen Qingli was frightened by Huo Junyu's words and immediately fell silent, not daring to say anything more.
In her previous life, Shen Qingli was bullied a lot by Huo Junyu. Although he never hit her, he did tease her.
But in her previous life, she at least had the status of a legitimate mother. Now, who knows if this little bully will really hit someone?
There are so many people around. If she gets beaten, will she still save her face?
only……
Shen Qingli glanced at Shen Qinglan stealthily again, still not believing that the old Princess Zhan had really given her the power to manage the family?
