Old Mrs. Yin was reading a book by the window against the sunlight. As people get older, their eyes become less bright. It takes ten times more effort to read a line of words clearly. If it were any other old lady, she would have been playing tricks on birds a long time ago. Feed the flowers.
But Mrs. Yin didn't do it. She was a stubborn person, and she had the spirit of refusing to admit defeat. Whatever she made up her mind, she would finish it no matter what.
I saw that these houses had disappeared in recent days, and now I could finish reading this book. Who would have expected that just as I felt relieved, Rong came over happily wiping tears.
Old Mrs. Yin slowly closed the book in the radiance and looked at her with a long face, "What's wrong with you? Why are you crying all of a sudden? Ask yourself how old you are. You are still healthy now, how can you be like this? Seriously hurt? You are not afraid of hurting yourself, but you must also think about it so as not to hurt my little grandson!"
A round of questioning came from behind, causing Mr. Rong to fall into the brine vat. His heart felt sour and astringent, and he burst into tears. "I don't want to either. Old lady, please go and see Brother Zhuo." He was going to Uncle Xie's place as usual, but for some unknown reason, he fainted after walking a few steps outside, and he's still asleep now!"
"What did you say? What happened to Brother Zhuo?"
Old Mrs. Yin stood up solemnly, and the book she placed on her lap fell down, causing the bricks to ring softly and throwing out a piece of fine dust.
Rong buried her head deeply in the brilliant waterfall of light swimming with thousands of particles, "Old lady, Brother Zhuo..."
It was as if she was crying so hard that she sucked in the dust and choked her throat violently, even her voice was out of tune, "I fainted."
"Why did you faint? Qian'er looks fine, doesn't he?"
As Mrs. Yin talked, she asked Mother Hu to help Rong family up, and then hurried to Chenxiangxuan.
Doctor Wan had already been waiting there as Rong had requested. When Mrs. Yin asked, he said the illness was extremely serious.
After all, she is the only Miaomiao and the only grandchild in the family. After hearing this, Mrs. Yin felt like thunder was hitting her head, and she was about to lose her balance while holding her forehead.
It was Mother Hu who had quick eyesight and quick hands to help Old Mrs. Yin to the official hat chair, fanned her and comforted her: "Old lady, don't worry, the doctor just said it, just take good care of her."
Take good care of yourself.
To put it lightly, it takes more than half a year to recover?
It’s not a minor injury or pain, it’s Hanshi Powder.
What's more, it's almost autumn. Brother Zhuo has been studying hard for many years. Isn't it equivalent to wasting time?
Then it will be another three years.
Old Mrs. Yin's face was congested, her eyes were as sharp as the tip of a knife, and there were holes wherever she poked. Finally, she looked at Qingzhi, pointed with her fingers and trembled for a long time, then hummed, "Why are you looking after you?" My brother's? You can't stop your brother from eating this, so why don't you come and sue me?"
Mrs. Rong was still wiping her eyes and wiping away tears, as if she wanted to use these tears to drain away all the pain she had endured.
Qingzhi had dealt with Rong family earlier, and when he saw the situation, he immediately knelt down and cried bitterly, "Old lady, I am wronged, and I am even more wronged! Old lady, you have watched your brother grow up. , What kind of temperament do you have, old lady, you know very well in your heart, how could you have such an idea of following the crowd, and you are absolutely determined not to touch the cold food powder!"
Old Mrs. Yin spoke more calmly this time, stroking her knees and patting her knees, "Then tell me, how did I eat such vile things?"
Qingzhi directed his words to the two maids with tears and runny noses.
Mrs. Rong came to echo with tears in her eyes, "Madam's maid?"
She screamed in surprise, as if she had just heard such shocking news, the color of her face changed completely, and the next moment she burst into tears again. She cried and regretted towards Old Mrs. Yin, "It's my fault, it's me! Mother Feng said it earlier He told me that these two people are usually lazy, but I saw that it was sent by the eldest lady, so I treated them leniently, without thinking..."
Mrs. Rong pretended to be choked, stopped talking, and kept beating her chest and sobbing.
Old Mrs. Yin, sitting on the official hat chair, tapped her fingers on the crisp and cold paint surface of the armrest. The knocking sound made people panic, and she felt that the dead silence was unbearable.
Mrs. Rong almost felt that the old lady had noticed something wrong. She didn't think about it for a moment. Old lady Yin shouted loudly: "Tie those two bitches and take them to my room! And the eldest lady, tell her to come to my room." Here, I would like to personally ask her how she teaches these scoundrels!"
"Sister, there is such a big battle in Fang Fang Bishan's long room, but you didn't see the aunt, she is crying!"
Fengyue, who had just returned from the back room, walked in and reported the warm letter with a smile.
Shen Nanbao was sitting in front of the embroidery frame. The afterglow of the setting sun and the lights on the corridor reflected the shaky shadows. The embroidery threads on the silk were all red. Staring at them for a long time made his eyes hurt.
Shen Nanbao couldn't help but raise his jaw, and the sore and numb feeling spread from his neck to his whole body, making him dizzy for a moment. After a while, he came back to his senses and said, "How did grandma deal with the lady? "
When asked about this, Feng Yue's happy face suddenly turned pale, "As I thought, the old lady and the master were furious, but they only temporarily stopped the eldest lady's reward and fined her a few months' worth of silver." , and said that the eldest lady had bad moral character and could not teach the second girl, so she let the second girl go back to Chenxiangxuan, and let the eldest lady think about her mistakes by herself."
"The lady earns about twenty taels in a month, and almost a hundred taels in a few months."
Shen Nanbao clicked the needle and raised his long eyebrows in the dim light, "Madam, my heart aches now."
The transition between day and night almost happened in the blink of an eye, and by mistake, the last ray of light sank from the continuous courtyard wall. Shen Nanbao stopped stitching, walked to the couch and closed the door to rest, "Grandma didn't tell Zhizhou Tong." The judge’s betrothal gift should be given to Rong Xiaoniang?”
Speaking of this, Feng Yue became more and more frustrated and said: "No. It seems that the eldest lady said that the second girl's hair gift and the master's birthday party cost a lot of money last time, and the public account has been in short supply, and it is difficult to make up for it. After being able to breathe a sigh of relief, she told her in a roundabout way that Rong Xiaoniang is a person who works on the dry shore, and there is no such thing as two families in a whole family, so the old lady stopped worrying about it. "
After hearing this, Shen Nanbao sneered, "The eldest lady is still powerful. The knife that Rong Xiaoniang has been sharpening for so long is pointed at her, and she can bite her back so that Rong Xiaoniang swallows the broken teeth. Rong Xiaoniang is so angry now Grinding my teeth all night long.”
These words are really like those onlookers in the teahouse, both of them want to taste it.
But yes, the water has not reached the roof of your house. No matter how rough it is, you can just hold an umbrella and look at it. Why bring it in and cause so much trouble for yourself!
When Fengyue thought about it, all her worries just disappeared with the wind, and she continued to serve Shen Nanbao diligently as usual.
The next day, when Shen Nanbaofang got up, there were birds chirping outside. Palm-sized birds stepped on the branches, jumping around, fluttering and rustling the branches and leaves.
It was in this whirlwind that Shen Nanbao heard the words sent by Fang Guan, "The master has properly arranged the Zhao family's old couple, sister, you can rest assured in the future."
Hearing this, Shen Nanbao was so excited that he even forgot about the action of tying his waistband. It took him a while to come back to his senses and listen to the buzzing sound in his head. , said: "Thank you very much."
Fang Guan raised his head to straighten her round collar with tangled branches and lotus flowers, and just missed the strange look on her face just now, "The master guessed that I would be grateful, so I asked the younger one to tell me that if I want to thank you, I will work diligently and wholeheartedly." After all, Xiu Huizhai is the sister he recommended to Prajna Zhaoyi. If she is looked down upon, he will be affected as well."
Shen Nanbao felt that these words were strange, and his beautiful eyebrows tightened warmly under the morning light, "I have been embroidering diligently and concentrating all the time. What does he mean by this?"
Fang Guan responded and glanced at Shen Nanbao inadvertently. Zhou Zheng's eyes were covered with a strange light, and he suddenly smiled, "Perhaps there have been too many twists and turns in the house recently, or my sister asked the master to ask about Chen Xiaohou before. What’s the matter with me? So the master is afraid that my sister will only think about romance and forget about serious things?”
It was as if the utensils on the table were swept down with a flick of the sleeve, and the jingling bell hit Shen Nanbao's heart, making her unable to understand what the sudden thumping in her heart was. She only felt sour, and... It was swollen, and the tips of the ears became disobediently hot.
"I, I didn't think too much about it... Just tell the palace commander to rest assured."
After saying these words, someone's figure leaked in from the window lattice, blended into the shadows on the ground, and jumped up to Shen Nanbao's eyes, "Sister."
Shen Nanbao looked at the swaying floral ears and nodded, "I asked you to fetch water earlier but you couldn't find anyone. Where have you been?"
Yourou squatted down and said, "I went to the old lady's place. The old lady was concerned about my sister Huizhai's progress, so she asked the younger one to go over and ask."
Ever since that time, Yourou has never concealed that she is an old lady. Although she has lived an honest life, she can no longer hide it like before when she goes in and looks through the plain paper on the desk, looking for the envelope in the cracks. .
However, I guess she didn't want to come in again.
After all, the God of Ears has done it so many times, and every time the old lady and the others stumbled, they must have suffered a lot.
Shen Nanbao was not worried about this for her, he was only worried about whether she heard him when he spoke to Fang Guan just now.
At first, she intended to let Fang Guan be a living target, but now that Xiao Yichen is taking care of her adoptive grandmother and adoptive grandfather for her, she can no longer continue with her previous thoughts, especially with such a 'master' and a handsome man. 'Call in a dignified manner.
"What do you think about calling him 'Black Hearted'? Or 'Jade Beast'?"
She was walking in the corridor to the long house in Bishan and suddenly said this. Fengyue was caught off guard and looked at her nervously, "Sister, sister, what did you say?"
"I……"
"Fourth sister!"
Just as Shen Nanbao was about to speak, a person jumped out of the corridor. He was still the same as when he first met her. The dragon-like and phoenix-like face shone like white jade under the wash of the sky, but those beautiful eyebrows, the moment he saw her, Tightened up.
Xie Yuanchang walked up angrily and asked, "Fourth sister, why didn't you come to Jinshan Temple?"
