Xie Yuanchang nodded unconsciously, "Yes, fourth sister."
Xie Yuanchang nudged Shen Wenzhuo with his elbow, scratched his head and smiled, "Not long ago, Yuan Ting took her out to be a comprador, and we met in Jingshui Building."
When he said this, the corners of his mouth were pursed, but the smile in his eyes could not be suppressed. In the smoky gray dome, it was like a thunder that exploded in Shen Nanyi's heart.
So they have known each other for a long time?
Didn't he slap himself in the face for being so steadfast in his vows in front of Shen Nanbao just now?
Now that Uncle Xie is out, Shen Nanbao might be hiding behind the screen to watch her jokes!
Shen Nanyi had a hateful look in her eyes, and her fingertips fell on the chair, almost wanting to dig a hole.
When Shen Nanwan heard this, he stood up slowly and walked in with his forbidden steps. He was filled with joy in Xie Yuanchang's surprised look, "Thank you, uncle, the fourth sister is not here."
Xie Yuanchang obviously didn't believe it. He looked at the swaying curtain and saw that no descendants were following him. His brows that were flying just now drooped, and he returned the greeting to Shen Nanwan alone, "Weren't you here just now? Why? Not here anymore?"
The voice was full of annoyance, so Shen Nanyi couldn't tell that Uncle Xie came here today not because of something to do with Shen Wenzhuo, but because of Shen Nanbao.
Shen Nanyi's heart was burning, so much so that she picked up the tea on the side and drank it.
Shen Nanwan didn't react at all, still smiling, "The fourth sister usually makes medicine with my grandmother. When I heard that my grandmother was going to take the medicine, I followed her."
Xie Yuanchang listened in confusion.
That day he went back to his home and asked about Shen Nanbao, and then he learned about her withering life experience.
After going around in circles for so many years, I just want to beg my own grandmother to love her more.
That's why he didn't hesitate to lower his status and cook the medicine himself.
This was the filial piety of the fourth sister. Xie Yuanchang didn't bother to question her more. He only complained that he should have called her earlier, which was not invisible.
Although he did come to Shen Mansion today to have something to do with Xie Wenzhuo, it was not urgent and he could go to Lushan Academy to discuss and resolve the matter.
Thinking about it carefully, I couldn't wait to come here just to meet my fourth sister.
Xie Yuanchang also didn't understand why he cared about her so much. Maybe it was the indifferent emphasis, the calm demeanor, or the sudden appearance of her face.
Anyway, no matter what, he just wanted to come and see his fourth sister today.
Now that it was all in vain, I couldn't even talk about regret, but I felt a little regretful in my heart, so I replied in a confused manner, "That's how it is..."
Such a lonely look fell in Shen Nanyi's eyes, making her laugh angrily, "It's strange that my third brother and I don't quite understand Uncle Xie's thoughts. It would have been better if I had called Ming Zheng to stop the fourth sister in the ear room just now. Thank you for being so melancholy here, uncle."
Although Shen Nanyi spoke for a while, the tip of his tongue was filled with bitterness. It rolled down his throat and into his heart, brewing and brewing, accumulating pools of sourness, making his eyes sour and astringent.
Shen Nanyi endured it, but did not shed tears after all.
After all, she is the legitimate daughter and has her own pride. Now that she is being teased by everyone, she will get it wrong. If she cries again, then the joke about her accompanying Shen Nanbao will be confirmed. If word spreads, will she still be a human being? .
Shen Nanwan turned his eyes after hearing this, fixed his eyes on Shen Nanyi's reddish eyes, blinked, then pursed his lips, glanced at the drizzle outside the door again, and said with a smile: "The rain outside seems to be getting stronger. If Uncle Xie doesn't dislike the trend, he will just have a casual meal at the Shen Mansion. Anyway, just now my grandmother also said that she wants to have a banquet with Uncle Xie. If the day doesn't hit the sun, why not today? It also saves me from being beaten in the rain. Like going back."
Shen Nanwan looked at Shen Wenzhuo, who was looking calmly and a little stunned, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Yuan Ting, do you think so?"
Shen Wenzhuo was startled for a moment, then he came to his senses and was about to speak, but Shen Nanyi stood up while holding on to the chair, "I remembered that I forgot to tell my grandma something, so I'm going to thank my uncle for the time being."
Xie Yuanchang bowed quickly and said, "You're welcome, young lady. If you have something to do, just do it first."
It's true that he came here because of his fourth sister.
It doesn't make any difference if she, a big girl, is here or not.
Shen Nanyi only blamed herself for being so sentimental just now, but now that she thought about it, even she wanted to laugh, let alone Shen Nanbao.
Shen Nanyi screwed up her teeth and crossed the threshold angrily.
While walking on the verandah, Ming Zheng supported her and fanned the flames, "Sister, we can't let it go like this. The fourth girl might have known that Uncle Xie was here for her, so she just waited to see her. Old lady, your joke!”
Shen Nanyi's face was distorted with anger, "How could I not know! She hasn't settled the debt for teasing me into losing face in front of the Duke's wife earlier. Now she did it again and deliberately walked away. Is that right? Are you afraid that I will teach her a lesson in public?"
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Shen Nanyi looked at the thick clouds in front of her, pursed her lips tightly, and looked extremely disgusted, "It's not even close to haircut yet. Thinking about Fang's seduction of men, it's even close to hairpin, so you can't be coquettish." Go to the boundary of Goulan!"
In the back room, Shen Nanbao, who was fanning himself in the back room, suddenly sneezed. He turned to look at the drizzle outside the window, punched his sleeves and said, "This day has changed so fast."
Feng Yue, who had lamented Luo Yu earlier, no longer lamented anymore. Standing in Shen Nanbao's trembling shadow, her voice was sad, "Sister, why don't you stay longer?"
Shen Nanbao was very calm, "I always make medicine for my grandmother. If she wants to drink the medicine, I have to come to the back room to take care of her."
Feng Yue frowned with a pair of beautiful eyebrows and said sadly: "There are servants taking care of this medicine. I don't need you to watch over me, let alone..."
Shen Nanbao understood what was going to be said next, but he didn't care.
Let's not talk about getting close to Xie Yuanchang by chance. The appearance was too ugly.
Even my grandmother wouldn't let me.
Otherwise, why would the excuse be to take medicine? Overtly or covertly, it was not just to remind her to act as if it was all right, so that she could leave with some sense.
Shen Nanbao's eyes were illuminated by the raging fire, "These are indeed taken care of by servants, but what did Mother Hu say when she came over just now? She said that Shuhua was nowhere to be found and that no one could be found to cook the medicine. , Isn’t it obvious that you want me to help you?”
In the huge Shen Mansion, Shuhua is gone, there are Bihao, Shuangwu... who can pick a fight and take office immediately?
Do you have to have her?
Although Shen Nanbao didn't care who his uncle ended up with or who he was married to, it was really disgusting for his grandmother to do this.
Just like Shen Nanwan said, I haven't even had haircut yet.
Why be so defensive?
Shen Nanbao lamented his own weakness, and the irritability that had been suppressed suddenly rose up, and he started to fan, causing sparks to fly everywhere.
Feng Yue's eyes were filled with panic and horror, and she couldn't even utter a word for a long time.
It wasn't until the boiling water lifted the lid and there was a "knock, knock" sound that Feng Yue recovered from her resentment and walked over to get some medicine.
Sichuan clam, rehmannia glutinosa, golden bell...
The cooling herbs were added one by one by Feng Yue, and the bubbling water was instantly softened and no longer boiling. It was only warm and steaming, expelling the bitterness that filled the lungs.
"Just smelling it makes me feel bitter. I don't know how the old lady drank it."
Feng Yue was stunned, and closed the lid with the cloth, and the crisp sound brought out her tender tone, "That's all, anyway, Sister Lin and her hairpins still have a year and a half, don't be in a hurry, let the eldest daughter go first If you get married, it would be better if there are less people in the house who can complain."
This comfort was enough to remind Shen Nanbao. She was startled for a moment, then slowly waved her cattail leaf fan and said, "Go to the steward's office later and ask for some rice paper from the steward. I don't have enough to copy the Buddhist scriptures." . ”
Speaking of this paper, it is also irritating to favor one thing over another.
But there is a contrast in everything. Once the incident of guarding against thieves against my sister came out, Feng Yue didn't feel so angry about this piece of paper.
I also miss the time when my mistress was in charge of the middle-class feed, and she only dared to be a little harsher, and it was acceptable on her face.
Now that Mrs. Rong has helped her mistress take care of the house, but the old lady has taken over the power behind her back, the situation is completely different now, with a heart-piercing sourness everywhere.
Fengyue couldn't understand how the old lady could treat her sister so cruelly, even if she was her biological child.
And the master, although he is currently in danger, he is not missing like this.
It was clear that she just ignored her and left her sister to fend for herself.
But the master was able to get out of the front office smoothly because my sister risked her own reputation to help him. Even if family ties are not concerned, this point of affection is still important.
If it were not spread, how would others view it? Maybe Du Dao is his biological child!
Just like that, the medicine was boiled out in Fengyue's anger, and Shen Nanbao respectfully carried it into the long room in Bishan.
She thought it was just a routine delivery of medicine. After serving and drinking the medicine, she could return to Rong Yuexuan to continue the unfinished Buddhist scriptures.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped into the threshold, Shen Nanbao looked up and saw Shen Nanyi crying uncontrollably in Peng's arms.
Probably hearing the noise, Shen Nanyi raised his head, his eyes piercing like knives, "Shen Nanbao, you did it on purpose!"
This was the first time Shen Nanbao had been in a fog since her rebirth. She was a little stunned, turned her head, looked at Old Mrs. Yin who was sitting on the high seat, and asked with her tongue tied: "Grandma, what's wrong with eldest sister? "
When she said this, Shen Nanbao opened her eyes as clear as water, which seemed to be filled with water and shone with a delicate light.
Seeing that Shen Nanyi was so angry, she immediately stood up and slapped her, "You are still pretending to be ignorant and pitiful here. This is how you used your appearance to seduce Uncle Xie! I was wondering before, Why do you dare to confront me now, and then you looked at me so obediently without saying a word? It turns out that you have a backer and you are so angry that you are waiting for your successor to come to you and embarrass me. It will ruin the reputation of Shen Mansion, right?"
