Chapter 770 Underestimating Her Strength
Shen Jingchuan didn't intend to explain to her, but just said: "Think about it yourself. An Ge'er's marriage will cost a lot of money no matter who he marries."
"Besides, An Ge'er did snatch Han Ge'er's marriage, so it is reasonable to give him some compensation."
Seeing Shen Jingchuan's firm attitude, Qin Xuerong couldn't say the words that were on the tip of her tongue for several times.
In the future, if An Ge'er passed the high school entrance examination, he could marry any woman he wanted. Why did he have to marry that Liang Wanjun?
Although she was put in solitary confinement, she knew what happened that year. Otherwise, how could she have designed a plan to lure Shen Shuhan into witnessing the scene and then come to rescue him.
But she never expected that in the end, she would end up shooting herself in the foot and had to pay money to Shen Shuhan as compensation.
Seeing that she remained silent, Shen Jingchuan said again: "You can discuss it with Brother Han. If he is not in a hurry to get married, you can wait a little longer."
None of the children in the mansion have a smooth marriage.
As a father, Shen Jingchuan doesn't have to think so much now. He just hopes to feel happier and avoid being criticized everywhere.

After Shen Jingchuan left, Qin Xuerong immediately sent someone to call Shen Jingan.
"Mom, I want to marry Liang Wanjun! Shen Shuhan clearly wants me to back off, but I don't want to."
Shen Jingan spoke in a deep tone, his eyes full of determination.
Not to mention that Liang Wanjun is indeed beautiful and was favored by the Third Prince. Just think about it, after Liang Wanjun married into the Shen family, he would take her with him every day and would definitely meet Shen Shuhan often.
Thinking about his former fiancée who has now become his wife, Shen Jingan couldn't wait to see Shen Shuhan's reaction.
Are you sad? Are you unwilling?
He just wanted to see him looking unwilling but helpless!
He wanted Shen Shuhan to watch him enjoy everything he once had!
"Ang'er, I know what you're thinking, but I don't have much money..."
Qin Xuerong's life is really difficult. With several children, each expense is huge.
But now she has no money to make. Apart from the few farms and shops that she had previously owned, she has no other income.
Shen Jing'an supported Qin Xuerong's shoulders and asked her to sit down: "Mom, don't be reluctant to spend this little money. When your son becomes successful in the future, I will never treat you unfairly."
"Besides, you see, my son has only taken one exam, and I have already lifted your house arrest. If he becomes successful in the future, you will have a good life."
"No matter how powerful Shen Shuyi is, she is just a woman. Besides, she will get married eventually, so she has no right to control you."
Qin Xuerong was touched. Indeed, now he only had this son to rely on.
Originally, she was counting on Shen Jingzhen, but that heartless woman had never even looked at her since she got married.
She also heard from people in the mansion that even after giving birth to a child, her life in the Feng family was not easy.
Therefore, the person we can rely on the most now is Ang Ge'er.
Shen Jingan continued, "Mother, my son married Liang Wanjun not only to provoke Shen Shuhan, but also because the Liang family will be helpful to my son in his future career. You should know that Liang Yuan is my father's confidant..."
"Think about it, if he says something to me in the future, will my father not listen to it?"
Qin Xuerong was indeed persuaded by Shen Jingan. She swallowed her breath and said, "It's not that mother doesn't want to help you, but you also know that Jinglou needs another 200,000 silver coins."
"If you get married again, how can I afford it..."
Shen Jingan said immediately: "Mom, haven't you been lending money privately? Can't you just take back some of it?"
Qin Xuerong frowned tightly: "This is against the contract, and I have to pay compensation."
"Don't you have any loan that's about to expire? Or maybe you can borrow some from somewhere else, and when your son is in high school, you won't have to worry about not being able to pay it back."
I have to say that Shen Jingan did a good job of painting a rosy picture for Qin Xuerong, and he managed to convince her.
Half a month later, Shen Shuyi's marriage was being arranged in full swing, and Shen Jingan and Liang Wanjun's marriage was also settled before the second round of preliminary exams.
As for the silver, the Liang family's 100,000 taels and Shen Jing'an's 50,000 taels were all delivered to Shen Shuhan as promised.
Shen Shuhan didn't make things difficult for them and directly returned the token of engagement. Only then did everyone feel relieved.

The candidates in Beijing entered the examination hall one after another. Shen Shuyi, Xie Jingchi, Shen Shuhan, Zhao Baokun and Zhao Xueqing met at a nearby teahouse to have tea.
"I really underestimated Qin Xuerong's strength. This money is like flowing water. To her, it seems to be inexhaustible." Shen Shuyi looked at Shen Jingan who was being examined and spoke lightly.
That's right, Qin Xuerong sent a lot of "tribute" to Jinglou again, and Shen Jingan got two test questions again.
"Cousin, can you write the answer to the test question to Master Wang?" Zhao Baokun couldn't help but speak in a low voice.
He knew that every time his cousin used the word "Mingde" in his answer, Taifu Wang would not be able to help but present it to His Majesty.
Shen Shuhan smiled: "Of course."
Zhao Baokun couldn't help but slap his thigh: "This is wonderful! I can't wait to see him cry!"
Xie Jingchi did not continue the topic. After all, in his opinion, a character like Shen Jingan could not escape her control.
His eyes fell on Shen Shuyi. She was wearing a sky blue dress and looked cool and noble.
But compared to usual, she now looked relaxed and at ease. It was obvious that the people around her were people she could trust.
"Recently, there have been frequent wars in Yuanxia. In order to prevent Yuanxia from attacking Liangzhou while Luoguo is attacking Yancheng, His Majesty has dispatched several generals to Liangzhou."
Hearing what he said, Shen Shuyi raised his eyes and looked at him: "Isn't there a Canglang King guarding Liangzhou City? Why do you still need to send troops there?"
Xie Jingchi said: "This time Yuanxia has dispatched 150,000 troops. Your Majesty is afraid that there will be a bloody battle, so you must prepare early."
Shen Shuyi didn't say anything, but he thought, if this happened, wouldn't the military strength in the capital be short?
If someone wanted to rebel at this time, it can be said that Emperor Qianwu's throne would be in jeopardy.
At this moment, Xiao Tingshan appeared in front of them with Lou Yulan, who was about to give birth.
"I didn't expect to meet you all here. It is really a fate." Xiao Tingshan spoke weakly with a pale face.
Recently, he has taken the pills given to him by Shen Jingyu too many times and has gradually realized his dependence on the pills.
He tried to control it, but the results were not satisfactory to him.
Xiao Tingshan was caught in a dilemma. If he didn't continue taking the pill, he would be unable to make any plans. But if he continued taking it, he would be trapped in it and become more and more dependent.
