She was so angry that she turned to Shen Wenzhuo and said, "The third brother and the fourth sister have only met each other a few times? Why are they so close? Nowadays, it is only the matchmaker who makes the introduction, why do you Do it without shame?"
As Shen Nanyi spoke, she held up her fan to cover her lips, but she couldn't cover up her drawn-out tone.
"Oh, I understand. The third brother's move is due to Pili Yangqiu and has a profound purpose."
Even Shen Wenzhuo lost his good temper after hearing the words. He frowned and asked: "Sister, what do you mean by this? I'm just leading the way for the founding countess. Why did it come to your mouth?" Do you have any ulterior motives?"
Shen Nanwan also felt very sorry for his younger brother, who had a smile on his face and had a smile on his face.
"Sister, even if you have hatred in your heart and are angry that your grandmother doesn't want to take you, the things that happened before are still fresh in your mind. If you don't reflect on yourself, there is no need to vent your anger on Yuan Ting. Besides, today is my father's birthday. , Big sister, are you going to stir up trouble like last time?"
It was Shen Nanyina's turn to live.
I thought that when Uncle Xie talked so loudly about marrying Shen Nanbao that day, Shen Nanbao would be impatient to go outside and wish that the whole city would know about it.
Now it seems that no one else knows.
Is that because I'm being 'self-motivated'?
Isn't that what the founding countess came here for?
In fact, if you think about it carefully, it's right. A person like Mr. Xie is as comfortable as a fish in water among the noble ladies in the Beijing circle. How can he be different from Shen Nanbao?
I think the 'proposal' and 'marrying her' that day were just a whim.
The two people involved didn't take it to heart, they just kept thinking about it, which was so boring.
However, after thinking about it like this, Shen Nanyi's anger disappeared, and she arched her eyebrows and faced Shen Nanwan with a sarcastic expression.
"Second sister is really a good example. It's been so long, but I still remember it in my heart. But after you've done it, what's the use of crying afterward and trying every means to make up for it?"
The previous hatred of failure was brought out again by these words.
The smile spread on his face also turned into a decayed piece of paper at this moment, shattered and peeled off piece by piece by the wind.
After all, Shen Nanwan had been patient and patient for many years, and had a deep understanding of what Shen Nanbao meant that day, so she would naturally not cause trouble in such an occasion again.
Shen Nanwan took a deep breath and turned to look at Shen Wenzhuo, "Yuan Ting, this is for receiving female guests after all. It's not appropriate for you to stay here. Besides, it's my father's birthday today and many officials are scheduled to come there. I must be waiting for your help."
Shen Wenzhuo could see the hidden meaning in her words in his mind, and he made a sound, and when he heard her say "I'll send you off" again, he squirmed, and finally said comfortingly when he came to the east hall, "Second sister, just now eldest sister If so, don’t take it personally..."
So people are just weird.
Facing the sword and the iron wall, the man's expression did not change at all.
But at the slightest touch of soft words and warm wind, those eyes that were not even blinking were as if they were sinking into the sand, and couldn't stop the tears.
"I know, eldest sister, this isn't the first time. I won't take it personally."
But Shen Wenzhuo looked at her choking expression and felt even more anxious.
In fact, knowing about the dressing change, it was impossible to say that I had never criticized him as my sister in my heart, but after questioning her, I felt more frustrated and thumping my chest.
If he had a bright future and was as successful in the manufacturing industry as Shu Zhi, perhaps his grandmother and father would be concerned.
Or maybe he had inherited his father's business early and was able to attract the attention of officials in his career, so his father would not have been forced into such a dilemma by Commander Xiao.
He was so confused that he didn't want to say anything, he just bowed and walked away.
The side hall is located in the ear room of the west hall, with a curtain hanging down. Outside there are noisy and intricate figures, and inside the room there is a calm and deep flow of people looking at each other.
The first person to speak was Mrs. Yin, "The Countess is here, but she's not far enough to greet you. I specifically asked my servants to brew the Qingfengshi. Madam, please have a good taste."
The founding countess of the Republic of China, Madam Kong, was in her prime years. She had shallow wrinkles at the corners of her eyes when she smiled, but it did not affect her graceful charm at all.
"Excuse me, old lady, I came here today because of my cousin."
Old Mrs. Yin was stunned for a moment, "I remember that your cousin asked a capital water supervisor to do it years ago?"
Mrs. Kong nodded lonely, "The old lady still remembers him. I guess it's because he has a naughty temperament. But even so, my cousin is also very capable of handling things. He doesn't dare to slack off when it comes to big things. What's more, this position is only available through yinbu, so since he took office, he has always abided by his duties and worked conscientiously. It was considered calm. Unexpectedly, a batch of goods came during the Spring Festival. He felt something strange. He wanted to check it in person, but was met with trouble. We were stopped by the superiors, but somehow it was later discovered that the goods contained unregistered armor and weapons."
Old Mrs. Yin took a breath of air when she heard this, "Does... the officials know about this?"
Kong's icy face was full of gloom, "Not yet. We are still going to the memorial hall to draw up the documents, but it will only last for two or three days."
Isn't Shen Shi the same?
Previously, the Kunwu clan was suspected of raising troops to rebel. When Shen Shi conducted a thorough investigation, he found that the Kunwu clan had met Fu Jie before raising troops. Because he could not distinguish the authenticity, he mobilized his troops to the mouth of the river.
Because Shen Shi recommended the Kunwu family, he was framed as a corrupt man and an accomplice. Only then...
Mrs. Yin frowned and sighed as if she was suffering from the same problem.
With a deep voice, he plucked Kong's tight string, and couldn't help but hold up the handkerchief and wipe it at the corner of his eyes, "I'm so sorry. Lord Shen is having a happy day, but I'm here with a sad face. .”
Old Mrs. Yin couldn't help but comfort her, "You are just worried."
At this moment, the servant came in with a Qingfengshi.
Shen Nanbao, who was silent at the side, leaned over to take it, poured two cups into the white mist, and handed it to the two of them, his lips curled up but he didn't say anything.
If she remembers it correctly, this incident should be the widely recited saying, "The sound of thunder is loud and the rain is small."
The smuggling of weapons is a top priority, and even the recommendation must be reviewed by the Bank, the Public Security Bureau and other levels before it can be handed over to the prime minister, and only after approval by the two prime ministers can it be presented.
Therefore, at the last moment, Governor Pingzhang refuted it as "nonsense".
At that time, Shen Nanbao also heard Chen Fangyan's ridicule, saying that the government set up a general administration department and went to the drum courtyard to open up channels for speech. In fact, wherever the channels were opened, it was not as closed as before.
As he was thinking about this, he suddenly felt a line of sight with a sharp edge. Shen Nanbao raised his head and saw Mrs. Kong leisurely holding tea and smiling at her through the water, "Is this the fourth girl?"
Shen Nanbao knelt down and said yes without saying much, waiting for Old Mrs. Yin to continue: "I just came back. There are no rules, so I asked her to stay with me and learn etiquette."
Mrs. Kong smiled and said, "The old lady has always been strict in teaching people, unlike the sisters under my knees, who lacked the temptation, so that I was benevolent but not powerful in front of them. Now I plan to come." Any attempt to trim things up for them would be just too whimsical."
If this had been said in the past, Mrs. Yin would have found it useful.
Now after listening to it, Old Mrs. Yin felt that it was ironic. She said casually, "I am also crossing the river blind, just feeling my way."
As she said that, Mrs. Yin held up a cup and stared at the glimmer in the old eyes on the tea soup. Her heart sank, "I am also helpless about your nephew's matter. To be honest, madam, my husband is now because of the previous I'm currently investigating the matter of corruption, so I can't get involved at all, so I'm really sorry."
Although it is said that asking for help from others, helping others is a matter of affection and not helping others is a duty.
But you have to show your attitude to make it easier to get along with them in the future.
Mr. Kong was not an unreasonable person. After hearing this, he smiled lightly and said, "Old lady, don't take it to heart. My cousin was also unlucky, and he encountered such bad luck just after he took office."
After these words and some polite greetings, Mrs. Kong left the side hall and swarmed into the other female guests, chatting with each other.
Under the scorching sun, a ray of straight light shines through the hollow support window, slanting on Old Mrs. Yin's shoulders, making her face look gloomy and her voice faint.
"When Mrs. Kong was talking just now, I saw that you had something to say. What did you want to say?"
Shen Nanbao remembered the frown on Kong's eyebrows just now and shook his head, "I want to say that the tea is a bit hot. Let it sit for a while before drinking."
But Mrs. Yin laughed, somewhat trying to tease her, "Mrs. Kong is very sociable. Even if she doesn't have those people to report back to the gods, she should know our current situation."
Asking questions like this knowingly can only mean that the drunkard is not interested in drinking.
As for where it is, my grandmother can't guess, so that's why she said it now.
After all, Kong didn't ask her to avoid what he said just now, and even looked at her several times, making it clear that he meant it to her.
The purpose was to tell her in a roundabout way that there were too many dirty things happening in the Earl's Mansion nowadays, and the sisters were all messing around, so that she could give up the idea of climbing high, otherwise she would inevitably have to go to the house and lift the tiles.
Shen Nanbao sighed, and suddenly remembered what Xie Yuanchang said to her while standing in the corridor that day, and he felt more resentment in his heart. Why couldn't that person understand what he said?
Complaints are complaints, and what should be answered must be answered.
If you leave it on for a long time, it will burn through the paper.
Shen Nanbao said slowly: "When my second sister got pregnant, my eldest sister and I were changing clothes and we met Uncle Xie. He...said he would come to me to propose marriage when I got pregnant."
Now it was Mrs. Yin's turn to be relieved. Although she had guessed that it might be such a reason, who was Xie Yuanchang? Looking for Shen Nanbao, Mrs. Yin didn't realize that he really had the idea of marrying Shen Nanbao.
What's more, the years are still here.
Old Mrs. Yin pondered and adjusted her gaze to look at her.
Thick black hair and a rose-colored collar intertwined with her slender, white neck. As she lowered her head, she had a soft and pitiful beauty.
It's so beautiful.
Even though Sister Bao has been back for so long and she has seen it so many times, she can still be amazed by Sister Bao's beauty from different angles.
After being distracted for a while, Mrs. Yin looked at her intently and asked, "What do you think?"
