After waiting for a long time, I waited for these words.
Fengyue gasped in embarrassment, "Sister, I'm joking again! You...you don't have to worry about telling these jokes."
Worry, of course, is worry.
But what's the use of worrying?
Now, because of myself, the progress of everything is skewed from that of the previous life, and the advance prediction after rebirth has no much effect.
We can only proceed with caution in the future.
After thinking about it, Shen Nanbao asked Fengyue to get up and ordered: "The hair oil is gone. Go to the management office and ask for some money. Tell him about this incident and wake him up. After all, this is the huge Shen Mansion." , stealing under the nose of the master, there are really no rules."
That Zhang Shilian was used to seeing what was served. If it were someone from the other side, Weiwei would definitely agree and find out the culprit, but if it was Rong Yuexuan, he would just ignore it.
However, I can use this to ask for a few extra dollars of hair oil. I heard that recently my family has purchased some steamed osmanthus oil, which can be applied to my hair until it becomes glossy and stays there for a long time.
Fengyue thought leisurely, and after receiving the order, she went to the management office with great interest.
Shen Nanbao was the only one left in the room. The afternoon sunlight was filtered in edge by edge by the hanging bamboo strips. Occasionally, a figure passed by, and there were different rules.
Shen Nanbao watched quietly, then suddenly walked out of the door and came to the ear room.
Those servants were still making paper kites. Because Shen Nanbao didn't know how many they wanted, they didn't dare to slack off, so they finished one after another. Until now, there was a big pile of paper kites on the table.
Shen Nanbao looked at the few bamboo branches and plain paper, and seeing their exhausted states again, he said, "There is no need to do so much. I just wanted to send the eldest sister and the second sister to each other during the season."
Ignoring the distressed looks they cast, he continued to give instructions: "Now that the courtyard is almost ready, I want to put up a swing on the southwest side. You guys can work on it together. It will probably be finished by sunset today." .”
These words were like a blow to the head, causing everyone to curl up their hands in extreme pain.
"Sister, to give the kids some breathing space, they have been making this paper kite day and night since they came to Chenxiangxuan. Now that Fang Fang has given up this job, I want the kids to make swings again... …”
The speaker was a servant wearing a red dress and a plain bun. He was about thirteen or fourteen years old. His facial features had not yet grown, so he looked immature, and his expression was not disguised.
Shen Nanbao looked at her and suddenly asked: "What's your name?"
The servant was stunned for a moment, and thought rather unexpectedly: "The younger one's name is Xiaohong."
He added an additional explanation, "The little one has only been in the house for a month and has been working in the back room. He hasn't been named by Mother Chen yet."
Sure enough, only a newborn who is not afraid of calves can say such energetic words.
Shen Nanbao nodded thoughtfully, "Since you have been assigned to my yard, I will give you a name... just call it Lu Kui."
Lu Kui quickly bowed her head and thanked her.
Shen Nanbao took over what he just said and said: "What you just said is reasonable. I was too worried about my own heart and didn't consider your difficulties. That's it. You go to Yinglou Pavilion for me. You As long as they come back, they can continue the work at hand."
There was something wrong with this. Although Lu Kui felt it vaguely, she couldn't help but be the first person just now. Now she had to take on this huge responsibility even if she didn't have the responsibility, so she reluctantly accepted the order and worriedly Went to Yinglou Pavilion.
Mrs. Peng was still packing boxes and cages in the yard, and the sun was beating down on the endless stream of servants, falling on the green bricks and crisscrossing the shadows of the trees, floating and swaying so leisurely that it made people dizzy.
Shen Nanyi came over with a lot of resentment, looked at Peng's hard work, and curled her lips, "Mom, you'd better take a rest. It's not good for you to be tired and sick because of a second girl."
After saying this, he angrily sat down on the stone bench, picked up the pot, poured himself a cup, raised his head and drank it all.
Peng's brows furrowed behind the fan, "I haven't looked after you for a few days, and you can't behave yourself when drinking tea. Who told you to learn the habits of those scoundrels who slap their spines?"
Shen Nanyi curled her lips uncomfortably, "My mother still knows how to take care of me. I thought my mother only cares about my second sister who is close by."
Since ancient times, women have been jealous mostly because their husbands have concubines and are affectionate with others, but there are also cases where they are favored by their parents.
Therefore, although Shen Nanyi's words sounded a bit too small, Mrs. Peng was extremely impressed. She sneered, "Do you think your mother is blind, and you don't know who is close and who is distant? I am not treating the hairpin properly in promoting the second girl." Is it for your future success?"
Shen Nanyi didn't quite understand, but muttered along with the words, "What's so scary about the second sister? She's just a clay figurine! Instead of dealing with her, it's better to think more about how to blast Shen Nanbao's nanny out of sight. Don't worry, don't ask her to use Shen's family status to hook up with the uncle, marquis, and lord."
Mrs. Peng knew that she had a grudge against Xie Yuanchang, so she slowly shook her fan and said, "Fourth girl is the daughter of a sinful woman. What are you worried about? What kind of trouble can you afford..."
Before he finished speaking, a servant bowed his head and came over, "Madam, the fourth girl sent someone to bring a message to Madam."
One sentence?
Mrs. Peng was stunned, "What are you talking about?"
The servant shook his head, "The man didn't say anything, he just said he wanted to see Madam."
Shen Nanyi sneered coldly, "Fourth sister is getting more and more arrogant, and the people she leads are not polite. Where is the Ying Pavilion she is supposed to be? How about the Jingshui Pavilion outside? Can even cats and dogs enter?"
But Mrs. Peng looked really calm, fanned herself, glanced slightly and asked, "Is this Fengyue coming?"
"No, I haven't seen it before."
The servant frowned as if thinking about it, "It seems...what is it called...Lv Kui."
Peng's expression suddenly changed, "Who? Lu Kui?"
Seeing Mrs. Peng like this, the servants were a little worried, "Yes, her name is Lu Kui. Do you want me to drive her away?"
"No!"
Ms. Peng stood up and slammed the fan in her hand, "You ask her to come in, and I want to hear what the fourth girl has to say in person!"
The servants were ordered to retreat.
Suddenly a breeze came, making the trees rustle.
It was obviously very cool, but Peng, who had a straight face, felt very hot, so he held up his fan and started to flap it up and down.
The white jade fan pendant dangled in Shen Nanyi's eyes, resembling Peng's bared teeth.
In Shen Nanyi's impression, her mother was always steady. She had never seen her mother like this before. She couldn't help but feel anxious, "Mom, what is the background of Lu Kui?"
Mrs. Peng didn't respond to her words, but looked over deeply, "Sister Yi, didn't you just say that you wanted to send Shen Nanbao out of the house for peace of mind? But I have to tell you, those who are too evil-minded should Keep it in mind for now, otherwise you won’t know when she will kill you when she hides in the dark."
Shen Nanyi's words were confused and confused. At this moment, the servant from before came in with a girl in red.
Before entering the house, one had to walk along a corridor that was more than two feet long. Because there were tall green plants on both sides, the sun set, and the shadows drifted over the two of them, making Mrs. Peng look at them from a distance. Really, but you can hear your own heart, jumping, jumping, beating more and more violently, as if it is about to break out of your throat.
"Madam Ann."
Everyone in the Shen family used to have hairpins and food, although they are now lonely, the old culture and customs have been passed down day by day. For example, when these people see their master, they are not allowed to look up, otherwise they will be disrespectful and disrespectful. crime.
Mrs. Peng could only look at the dark head and couldn't make out the appearance clearly. She frowned and her throat became a little tight. "Lift your head and let me take a good look at you."
Lu Kui didn't know why, but she still raised her face as ordered.
A beautiful face appeared in front of Peng's eyes, but her regular facial features were completely different from what she remembered.
Realizing this, Peng breathed a sigh of relief, and the fan that could not help but shake violently slowed down, "Lu Kui?"
Lu Kui said yes.
Mrs. Peng sneered, "I think you're very smart. I didn't get it from Mrs. Ya the day before yesterday. Did you get brought in by the fourth girl?"
When Shen Nanbao entered the house, Guangzhizhi brought Feng Yue with him, and Feng Yue held Xinrou in his hand.
Peng's question made it clear that any unsophisticated person who came here would probably be tricked into it, and Shen Nanbao should be accused of "bringing outsiders into the house privately".
But Lu Kui had a good background and did not accept Peng's tricks. She bowed her knees and responded obediently: "The younger one just entered the house a while ago and hasn't been here for long, so it's normal for Madam not to remember, but Mrs. Wang I know Xiaohong, Xiaohong’s former name was Xiaohong.”
Mrs. Peng narrowed her eyes, "In the past? Did the fourth girl give you your name?"
Lu Kui nodded and replied matter-of-factly: "The little one just came in. Mother Wang gave it to the fourth girl before she even gave her a name. The fourth girl gave the name to the little one."
These words caused Peng to remain silent.
Lu Kui was at a loss as to what she had said wrongly. She was worried for a while when she heard a cold scoff, and Peng's voice was full of wind and thunder.
"I'm not used to giving names!"
Mrs. Peng sat down and poured herself a cup of tea. "Speaking of which, what message did your sister ask you to bring?"
Lu Kui knelt down again, "My sister said, Madam is very busy all day long. I didn't want to disturb you with this little thing, but just after Madam resumed sex, someone in the house was stolen, and it was the time when new talents came into the house. , I’m afraid that it won’t be well received by the old lady, so I asked the young lady to tell her that someone in Rong Yuexuan had dirty hands and stole my sister’s hairpin.”
No matter how stupid Shen Nanyi was, she knew that the name "Lukui" had an origin. She was afraid that she came specifically to find trouble in the attic, so she immediately laughed out loud.
"It's just a hairpin, but he actually came to Ying Pavilion to say something like this. You really have the knowledge of a small family."
Shen Nanyi said, turning her head, "Mother, if you want me to say, grab this girl, put her on the torture bench, slap a few boards and then put her back, let Shen Nanbao see the bloody appearance of her men, and he will be frightened." I don’t dare bother you like this.”
Hearing this, Lu Kui's legs softened and she knelt down, "Young man, I'm just sending you a message. I don't dare to overstep my bounds. I hope you, madam, will spare my life!"
The sounds of begging for mercy and kowtows were right next to my ears, buzzing like flies, but Peng slapped her more slowly, "I just told you, I scared you like this, what kind of master do you have?" If there is any kind of servant, please step aside and tell your sister, I understand."
