Xiao Shen was the younger sister of Shen Congxing and Empress Shen, and was also a person with excellent luck.
Although she lost her parents at a young age, she had the love of her sister and brother, who were reluctant to strictly discipline her and were very conniving with her, so that she developed a wild child who was free and free and ran around and played wildly.
After the brother-in-law ascended the throne, Xiao Shen came to the capital and entered the circle of nobles, although many high-ranking noblewomen and rich daughters-in-law did not look up to Xiao Shen and felt that Xiao Shen was not allowed to go on the table, but looking at the face of Xiao Shen's sister Empress Shen, they had to be polite to him.
In terms of marriage, Xiao Shen was also extremely lucky, cutting off the british only daughter Zhang Guifen was originally going to marry General Xiao Zheng. The Zheng family is loyal and fierce, good conduct, in-laws are amiable, and although the sister-in-law abides by the etiquette, she stands up very upright, will never be embarrassed by her brother and daughter-in-law, and will also protect her sister-in-law in front of outsiders, which is a very good family.
Due to Gu Tingye's good relationship with Shen Congxing and General Xiao Zheng, Sheng Minglan soon became acquainted with Xiao Shen, who also became Sheng Minglan's girlfriend, often running to the Marquis of Ningyuan to find Sheng Minglan.
In terms of heirs, Xiao Shen was far less blessed than Sheng Minglan, and due to Xiao Zou's murder of Zhang Guifen, Xiao Shen was frightened, resulting in difficult childbirth, and tried his best to give birth to a daughter, and could not have children from then on.
Therefore, Xiao Shen regarded his only daughter as a pearl in his hand, loved her very much, and began to worry about her daughter not long after her daughter was born, worried that her daughter without a brother-in-law would be bullied, and planned to find a good in-law for her daughter.
Therefore, she came to Sheng Minglan to make a joke, so that Cui's mother suspected that she wanted to marry her daughter to Sheng Minglan's son.
In this regard, Sheng Minglan's reaction was not good, and she was not in favor of letting her son Tuan Ge'er marry Xiao Shen's daughter as a daughter-in-law.
"Brother Tuan will inherit the title in the future, and his daughter-in-law ... You have to be able to do something. "It's not that she hates Xiao Shen's daughter, but... She also said that it was not good, if it was The daughter of Madame Zheng, then she immediately nodded.
Why did Sheng Minglan not want to let the daughter of her girlfriend Xiao Shen be her daughter-in-law? Only because Sheng Minglan did not think that Xiao Shen was a person who could educate a capable and virtuous daughter.
Marrying a wife and marrying a wife can not only find a good-looking one, but also find a virtuous and capable one. And to judge whether a woman is suitable to be a wife and whether she can fulfill her wife's responsibilities, you can observe from her original family, especially her mother.
As the saying goes, if there is a mother, there must be a daughter, and the influence of a mother on her daughter is far-reaching and indelible.
So, what kind of person is Xiao Shen? In fact, Xiao Shenshi has many shortcomings, indeed can not get on the table, is a refined egoist, doing things only to consider their own interests.
01. In order to make herself more comfortable, she sued her sister-in-law, almost stirring up the restlessness of her husband's family;
Xiao Shen's habit since Xiao Ye, can not stand the restraint, however, after getting married, she must abide by the requirements of the feudal era for women, the door does not go out of the second door, the sister-in-law stopped xiao Shen clan from showing her face, did not ask her to pestering Xiao Zheng general to go outside to play, often mentioned some xiao Shen's social etiquette, did not let it make jokes, in fact, the sister-in-law really did not treat Xiao Shen much, the practice was very in line with the requirements of the time, however, Xiao Shen was spoiled, could not stand it, so, thought of a way to move and rescue soldiers.
Therefore, Xiao Shen ran to his sister Empress Shen to complain, hoping that her sister would come forward and help her shock her sister-in-law and make her feel better.
What can Empress Shen do? Protect your sister, Lady Zheng's requirements are fully in line with the regulations, there is no problem, Empress Shen is not reasonable, do not help her sister, Empress Shen can't do it.
When the news came out, Madame Zheng Da preemptively attacked, she stood up very upright, and would never easily compromise with the magnates.
Unexpectedly, Lady Zheng was fiercer than her, more bare than her, and she was only after crying and complaining at her sister's place, and the empress did not think about how to tell Lady Zheng that the people had knelt down in front of Old Lady Zheng and said, 'Concubines are humble, not enough to be the eldest sister-in-law of the Shen clan', and asked themselves to go back to the church.
Seventy-year-old and eighty-year-old Lady Zheng was frightened to scatter half of her soul, more than ten years of mother-in-law, friendship is extraordinary, she has always been very satisfied with this eldest daughter-in-law, and she also has children, housework, family and beauty, how can she give up. Old Lady Zheng immediately stood up her sick and weak body, put on a full dress, and went to the palace to ask for forgiveness.
Although things soon subsided under the pressure of public opinion, Empress Shen trained her sister and appeased Lady Zheng, but Xiao Shen's approach also offended the in-laws. Lady Zheng was not only the in-laws' favorite daughter-in-law, but also single-handedly pulled General Xiao Zheng, the husband of the Xiao Shen clan, and the eldest sister-in-law was like a mother, which made General Xiao Zheng feel very unhappy.
Xiao Shen is very lucky, there is a powerful mother's family, look at the face of Empress Shen, the Zheng family will not be embarrassed by the Little Shen family, otherwise, such a self-serving daughter-in-law who cannot be on the table, the Zheng family is not rare.
02. The reason why she looks at Zhang Guifen is not pleasing to the eye is only because she robbed Zhang Guifen of her marriage and felt that the diaphragm should be;
Xiao Shen's treatment of Xiao Zou's family was much closer than Zhang Guifen's, and at first, Sheng Minglan also thought that the reason why Xiao Shen's treatment of Xiao Zou was good was because he was grateful for the kindness of his previous sister-in-law, Da Zou.
But in fact, the reason why Xiao Shen did this was only because of his own selfishness.
“... I, I don't hate my sister-in-law now because of my former sister-in-law! I deliberately treat Aunt Zou well because... Before we came to the capital, the Zhang family and the Zheng family were already discussing relatives, but they were delayed because of the death of the former emperor. appearance... Xiang Gong was originally going to marry Zhang Zhang's! ”
Xiao Shen's face turned red from crying, and he seemed to be infinitely ashamed, "... After passing through the door, my in-laws and brothers-in-law and sisters-in-law are all the best people, and I am treated with justice again... Whenever I think of my sister-in-law's bad life, I feel like a thief, and my heart deserves it..."
Originally, she married the person Zhang Guifen should marry, and she couldn't complain about her, their marriage was decided by the elders in the family, and she couldn't help herself, but she bullied Zhang Guifen for this, and didn't respect Zhang Guifen's sister-in-law, just because she was worried in her heart, what is this?
She is not wrong, is it true that Zhang Guifen is wrong? She was given a marriage to Shen Congxing by the emperor's will, the only daughter of the British duke did the filling, and there was an unreliable stepson and noble concubine, who had already suffered all the grievances, why did Xiao Shen treat her like this?
03. Whether it is a man or a woman, before getting married, be sure to look at each other's original family.
In "Knowing or Not", originally Mrs. Sheng and Mrs. He looked at each other and had already moved the idea of marrying Sheng Minglan to He Hongwen.
He Hongwen has good character, outstanding ability, the family population is simple, if Sheng Minglan marries him, his life can be very comfortable, but after Cao Jinxiu appeared, Mrs. Sheng and Sheng Minglan felt that the He family was not a good family.
Cao Jinxiu is not the key, the key is that He Hongwen's mother is an unclear person, she blindly favors her mother's family, for the sake of her own mother's family can disregard the happiness of her own son. With such a mother-in-law on the stall, Sheng Minglan's days can be imagined.
In the book "Why Home Hurts", it is written that when getting married, the criterion for making choices is not passion, let alone love and love, but often a sense of security, not only when elders make choices for their children, but also when young people make their own choices.
Whether it is a man or a woman, before getting married, you must look at each other's original family, especially each other's parents. Children educated by a good family style are often not too bad, if the family style is good, it is more difficult to expect children to come out of the mud and not stain.
