"Okay, okay, auntie promises you."
Wang hugged her and said dotingly.
Even though Mrs. Wang manages the house in an orderly manner and her servants are a little afraid of her, she dotes on her children the most. Fortunately, Yu Zhi grew up with his grandfather and father and did not contract the bad habits of those noble sons.
As for Shen Xiqing, she was a little too lively and willful for her favor.
But the treatment of Luo Ran was different. The little girl looked so delicate and soft. When people saw her, they couldn't help but protect her and pamper her. When she thought about her grandma forcing her to learn the rules in the future, Wang couldn't help but feel heartbroken. .
I originally thought that grandma was pretty good, but now I have changed my mind.
Luo Ran said again: "Auntie, your hard work is really in vain."
Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "What's the point? Our families don't lack enough food to eat. I'll save it for your cousin to get married in the future!"
After saying that, both of them smiled knowingly.
Outside the Meridian Gate of the Imperial City, the ministers who had just left court filed out of the east side gate.
Shen Yuzhi stood not far away, greeting the ministers who passed by gently and politely. But when a pair of soap boots with white soles and red cranes appeared in front of him, he didn't move.
Fu Jinan put his hands behind his back, lowered his eyes to the ground, and said with a smile: "Just now, the emperor was praising Mr. Shen, saying that Mr. Shen's strategies are unique in the world. It seems that I want to congratulate Mr. Shen."
Shen Yuzhi then slowly raised his head. Different from Fu Jinan's sharp red and phoenix eyes, he had a pair of peach blossom eyes and smiled wildly: "It turns out to be Mr. Fu."
Although he was slightly shorter than the person in front of him, the scholar was not as strong as the martial arts practitioner, and his temperament was as gentle as jade, but when he stood in front of the commander of the Jin Yiwei, who was feared by all the civil and military officials in the dynasty, he did not have any aura at all. Lose one point: "I have been really close to Master Fu recently."
Fu Jinan pretended to think for a moment and nodded in agreement: "What Mr. Shen said is true!"
Shen Yuzhi frowned and said with some distress: "But it seems that being destined to Master Fu is not a good thing."
As he spoke, he leaned forward slightly and lowered his voice and said, "Master Fu usually does a lot of evil and kills countless people. I am afraid of ghosts."
Fu Jin'an raised his eyebrows and looked at him sideways: "Master Shen has read a lot of poetry and books. Haven't you heard the saying that if you don't do something wrong, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door?"
Shen Yuzhi shook his head: "That's wrong. Some evil spirits don't distinguish between good and evil, and they only pick on weak people and bully them. What should Master Fu do if he encounters such an evil spirit?"
"hehe."
Fu Jinan chuckled: "Me. I'm quite a weird person. No matter it's a human or a ghost, as long as I'm interested, I won't feel at ease until I eat it."
Shen Yuzhi put away the smile on his face and said, "Okay, then let's see if Mr. Fu has such a good appetite."
"What are you doing?"
"Yu Zhi, why are you here?"
Luo Deyun and Shen Boli came out together and saw two people not far away speaking at the same time.
"Uncle, father."
Shen Yuzhi saluted, and then said: "Yu Zhi has something to do with you. I happened to meet Mr. Fu and had a casual chat."
Fu Jinan also said: "Yes, I just said that Mr. Shen is going to invite you to a wedding banquet."
Shen Boli looked at his son, then at Fu Jin'an, nodded, but said nothing.
"In this case, I won't disturb you any more."
Fu Jinan fisted slightly and turned to leave.
Shen Boli saluted his back, while Luo Deyun looked at Shen Yuzhi suspiciously.
Luo Deyun came to Shen Mansion with the Shen family and his son.
"Why did Yu Zhi call me here?" Luo Deyun asked.
Shen Yuzhi thought for a moment and thought: "Uncle, father, I want to take Ranran to Jiangnan."
"What?"
"What?"
The two said in unison.
Shen Yuzhi smiled: "You don't have to be so surprised. Rather than saying that I take Ranran with me, it is better to say that Ranran accompanies me. As the ancients said, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. This year's spring is a little later than in previous years, but I guess The imperial examination should be almost in April, and the weather will be warm by then. I want to go to Jiangnan. Ranran said that my aunt still has some things that she hasn’t brought back. Since my uncle will not send you out in the past few years, I think it’s better to It’s better to take them all back to the capital. Besides,”
He hesitated and said: "Although Ranran seems to be fine on the surface, I know that this breakup has something to do with the Luo family, and she feels bad. I just took the opportunity to take her to relax. She is still familiar with it, and she is still there. Can you help me show the way?"
If Shen Yu knew the two reasons mentioned above, Luo Deyun would not agree to it at all. But the latter one made him hesitate.
They had only returned to Beijing a few months ago, and their daughter had accidents one after another and suffered so many grievances, all from relatives. A big man like him sometimes gets angry just thinking about it, let alone his delicate and frail daughter.
Shen Boli didn't have any objections. He knew that his son had his own opinions and had never let him worry about it since he was a child. He said, "I think it's good to let Ranran go out for a walk. Anyway, we just broke off the engagement, even if we get engaged again, There is no rush for these two years.”
"Yes, I also want to take the opportunity to keep Ranran for a few more years."
Luo Deyun also sighed and said, "Where is Ranran, is she willing?"
Shen Yuzhi smiled: "If Ranran doesn't agree, how dare Yuzhi come and tell you."
"Okay. Let's settle it like this for the time being. You will leave in May and come back in July and August."
Lord Luck said.
Shen Yuzhi lowered his eyes, counted the days, and said with a smile: "There is no need to commit to death. If the weather gets hot by then, we can just delay it for a few months."
"Haha, are you afraid that after the imperial examination, the emperor will let you enter the court?"
Luo Deyun smiled heartily.
Shen Yuzhi touched his nose, as if his thoughts had been guessed.
Luo Deyun had something else to do, so he greeted Mrs. Shen, said a few words to his daughter, and then left.
Shen Boli glanced at his son and said quietly: "Follow me."
Shen Xiqing leaned over and asked softly: "Brother, have you ever done something wrong?"
The look on her father's face just now was clearly the look on her face when her father wanted to punish her every time she got into trouble.
Luo Ran was puzzled: "Why did my cousin say that? My uncle wasn't angry either."
Shen Xiqing clicked her tongue and shook her head. She put her hand on Luo Ran's shoulder and said, "Then you don't understand your uncle. The calmer his expression is, the bigger the matter is!"
Shen Yuzhi pushed away the hand she placed on Luo Ran's shoulder and said, "You little one, don't crush Ranran. Also, do you think I am you? You get into trouble every day!"
Luo Ran showed an expression that was uglier than crying: She would have to talk to her cousin later. If he continued like this, everyone would find out about her earlier.
Shen Yuzhi turned around and went to his father's study.
"Father, you are looking for me."
After Shen Yuzhi came in, he stood in front of the desk.
Shen Boli wrote a note before speaking: "Tell me why you went to Jiangnan. Don't fool me like you fooled Luo Deyun."
Shen Yuzhi was not afraid, turned around, wetted the handkerchief and handed it over with both hands.
