I don’t know if he knew it or not, but he left with full apologies. When it was dark, he asked Qingzhi to bring him some medicine for sores. He must have known about the old lady’s order not to see the doctor.
Shen Nanbao looked at the criss-crossing lines on the porcelain bottle, and behind him was Feng Yue who was standing uneasy and crying, "Sister, I won't dare to do it next time."
"You don't dare. I think you are very brave. You didn't even listen to my instructions. You are not very brave."
Shen Nanbao's tone was light, which made Feng Yue's heart tremble, and she quickly knelt down, "Sister, I was just too angry for a moment, so I couldn't stop my words. Just punish me. I know I was wrong." Yes, I am willing to be punished."
Shen Nanbao raised the corners of his lips, "You said you knew you were wrong, then tell me where you knew you were wrong?"
Feng Yue stood timidly behind, looking at Shen Nanbao's sinking face, rubbing the corners of his clothes and saying, "You shouldn't just be happy for a moment and speak without restraint."
Shen Nanbao nodded and said that you also know, "I have never said anything to you, firstly because of our friendship since childhood, and secondly because I think you are a measured person, although you are a little confused in small things. , but there is no ambiguity on major matters. Besides, I told you last time that the third brother is the third brother, they are they, and they cannot blame the third brother for their sins. Why can't you listen? Or are you just That bully is ashamed of himself when he sees that Third Brother is a reasonable person, so why is he so unruly in front of him?"
Fengyue's heart tightened after hearing this, and she walked forward on her knees to grab the corner of her robe, "Sister, it's the younger one. Seeing you like this, sister, I feel uncomfortable, so that's why I said this, and there is only the third young master in the house. I can speak for my sister, but I just don’t want her to endure these grievances in vain."
These words were not short. She was crying again, so she spoke intermittently. Shen Nanbao felt uncomfortable in her heart. The small piece of strength on her clothes also became her best help, smoothing the situation. Shen Nanbao was angry.
Turning her head, she saw Feng Yue's trembling shoulders again, and her heart could no longer harden, so she stood up.
Feng Yue refused, covering her eyes, tears and sounds leaked out from her fingers, "Sister, let me punish the younger one, so that the younger one will feel better."
"Are you still stubborn with me and won't listen to me?"
Shen Nanbao raised his eyebrows, half threatening her, "Or do you want me to help you up with such an injured hand?"
After hearing this, Feng Yue no longer had any strong points, sobbed and stood up.
Shen Nanbao then continued what she just said: "I know you feel sorry for me from the bottom of your heart and can't bear it for me, but if you think about how things in this world can be so lighthearted, look at Commander Xiao, isn't he also tolerant?" It has been ten and a half years, and now you are so proud."
I understand the truth, but I can't help it when it falls on me.
She doesn't have the same open mind as her sister, nor the same toughness as Zhu Shi.
Shen Nanbao looked towards the courtyard. There was a thin silver hook on the horizon, bending above it, immersing the corners of the eaves and treetops in the moonlight. Only Jingtao was still gloomy, so gloomy that no light could shine through.
The sound of people walking on the veranda could be heard, and the lanterns with flowers swaying and willows trembling in the wind faintly illuminated the visitor's features, revealing that it was Fang Guan.
Since Shen Nanbao knew that Fang Guan was Xiao Yichen's person, he no longer had any control over her, and he did not force her to do daily service. She seemed to be very at peace with herself, and she had always been like a dragon.
Fengyue is a half-hearted person and she was crying just now. Now when she saw Fang Guan, before she could hold back her tears, she started to change her temper and start talking, "Sister, why don't you pay more attention to this Fang Guan? After all, it's not you." If a person does something bad, the consequence will be that we will be uprooted."
After saying this, Fang Guan had already entered the room and bowed his knees to Shen Nanbao, "Sister."
Then he took out a cloisonné enamel box from his pocket and said, "The master asked me to give this to you."
Shen Nanbao's heart seemed to have been grabbed by someone, and he missed half a beat, "Is the palace commander here?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that he had said the wrong thing. The two people's private messages did not require Xiao Yichen to come to the door. They could communicate through the small hole buried by the walnut.
Shen Nanbao's face felt hot. He coughed and cleared his throat and asked again, "When did you tell him?"
"As soon as the sister comes back, the younger one will tell the master."
Fang Guan lowered his head, unable to see his expression, and his tone was so light and watery that it was hard to hear the taste, "Master also asked me to send a message to my sister to comfort her."
How strange.
Does such a person know how to comfort people?
Shen Nanbao became more interested, "What are you talking about?"
Fang Guan raised his head slightly, his eyebrows lit up, "Heaven is going to entrust this person with a great responsibility, and he must first work hard on his mind and body."
She probably thought this was strange, and rubbed her fingers together in embarrassment.
Shen Nanbao and Feng Yue were stunned there, so stunned that the room fell silent, and they could only hear the sound of the muffled wind coming in and lifting the curtains.
After a while, Shen Nanbao found his voice and nodded, "Excellent."
The words of predecessors are not good.
Shen Nanbao ignored the trace of confusion that crossed his mind and ordered Fang Guan to put the box down.
The box was simple in shape, and its fine lines were distorted under the dancing lights, gradually giving birth to Xiao Yichen's eyebrows and his slightly upward curved mouth, grinning at her.
Shen Nanbao was startled, and an endless chill ran down her spine. She was so frightened that she didn't dare to look at the box anymore, and suddenly told Feng Yue to lock it in the drawer.
He didn't say anything more to Fang Guan. He just said he was sleepy, so he went to bed, wrapped himself in a quilt and fell asleep.
Although I had a thrilling night before falling asleep, I slept very peacefully that night. I got up early the next day, changed into a cool silk chest-length undershirt, and went to give Mrs. Yin a morning sleep in high spirits.
When passing by the corridor, I met Shen Nanyi on the narrow road again.
Perhaps because she had just recovered from a serious illness, Shen Nanyi lost her usual arrogance. She put her hand on Ming Zheng's arm and leaned half of her body against Ming Zheng in a trance, showing an invincible look. The smell of cowardice did not affect her words at all, it could still make a person angry to death.
"I heard yesterday that Mr. Xie came to propose marriage? I told you, fourth sister, earlier that your ulterior motives are as high as the sky. Uncle Xie is not worthy of you. If you refuse to listen, look at the punishment you will receive. Come on, I heard that it took thirty strokes on the hand? I don’t know if the fourth sister will be able to hold the needle in the future."
After saying that, Shen Nanyi held up a round fan with her other hand and pretended to fan the wind, "It doesn't matter if the embroidery is good, it's just a flash in the pan."
Shen Nanbao smiled and said yes, "But at least it was once brilliant. It's better than the green vines between the stones. I have been mediocre all my life and no one cares about it."
The pun provoked Shen Nanyi's extremely difficult talk of marriage.
Shen Nanyi was so angry that she immediately stood up and wanted to slap him, but was stopped by Ming Zheng, "Sister, the old lady is still angry with you. If I get to the room later and the old lady asks, just I’m afraid it’s not good.”
Shen Nanyi curled her lips irritably, squeezed Shen Nanbao away and walked away without any further quarrel.
Fengyue looked at Shen Nanyi's back and couldn't help but curse, "This is called not wanting to see others' kindness. It's really irreconcilable. Sister, you are the one who got hurt, and she will be cured!"
"She hasn't been like this for a day or two. Aren't you used to it? If you're not used to it, you might as well accumulate some resentment and make yourself sick."
Shen Nanbao said lightly, pulled a foot away from Shen Nanyi, then lifted up her skirt and walked to the upper room.
Old Mrs. Yin has great rules. Unless she is too sick to get out of bed, or she has specifically asked her to do so, she must come to Dingsheng.
In the past, they both got up at different times, so it was difficult to meet each other. Now when Shen Nanbao entered the room, he saw that the left and right sides were full of people, even Shen Shi was there. He thought to himself that he must have something to say, so he walked up silently. Made a ceremony.
Old Mrs. Yin seemed to be in a good mood. When Shen Nanbao arrived, she actually asked about her injuries for the first time.
Shen Nanbao was quite flattered and said: "After taking the medicine, it doesn't hurt much anymore. It will take more than half a month, so I think it will be fine."
Old Mrs. Yin nodded and asked her to sit down. Then she saw the descendants gathered together and smiled, "Just now, the founding father-in-law sent someone to bring a message, saying that the Tongpan family in Zhizhou has a brother named Fang Ruoguan. It hasn’t been decided yet, but he intends to marry our family.”
Tongpan, not to mention that it was not a prestigious official title in Jinling, but even in the remote area of Zhizhou, it was not a big deal.
Shen Nanyi shook her fan, and a look of disdain appeared in the swaying shadow.
Old Mrs. Yin naturally saw it, and she never thought about sending Sister Yi away. As for Shen Nanbao, not to mention that she intended to make Shen Nanbao an old girl, even in a place as far away as Zhizhou She also knew about her miserable life experience, so she specifically asked Sister Bao not to...
Old Mrs. Yin looked at Shen Nanwan who was hanging his head, and said casually: "Although it is a general judge, there is an aunt in his family who married the Privy Council earlier, and the two families have a close relationship, although they are not as good as the Haoying family. , but he is also a distinguished family."
The privy councilors all agreed to be in charge of the affairs within the privy council, to investigate the merits and demerits of the officials and to replace them, so Shen Shi's current idle duties fell under their jurisdiction.
It’s just the right medicine for the situation, and it’s a good recipe for the Shen family!
Except for Shen Nanbao and Rong, everyone else looked at Shen Nanwan eagerly.
Being stared at by such eyes, Shen Nanwan raised his head as if on pins and needles, "Granddaughters' marriages are all decided by grandma."
In fact, this ending was the best for her. After all, she didn't have to be a concubine, but she was the wife of a general judge. Before leaving, she was able to show some kindness to her natal family, so that even if there was a quarrel with her husband's family in the future, she wouldn't have to worry about it. As for the end of the road.
After all, it was her daughter's marriage. Mrs. Rong seemed to be very cautious, "Zhizhou is still some distance from Jinling. The wife of the Duke's Mansion didn't mention it when she came yesterday. This morning, I sent someone to tell me that this... time is too late. It’s a bit more compact.”
Old Mrs. Yin nodded with sympathy, "No, but if you think about it carefully, if the front foot leaves my house, the back foot Zhizhou will send a message. Anyway, the two have not met yet, and there is no conclusion yet. You can wait until you see it before you see it, and you can reject it if you think it’s inappropriate.”
