Seeing that she was bound to make enough detours, Mrs. Shen said straight to the point: "What kind of child is not a child? It's half a year old. It would make people panic if I tell you!"
"grandmother!"
The woman sitting next to Shen Nanwan snorted.
Shen Nanbao followed the sound and looked over. In the fading sky, Rong Qiyi wore a honey-yellow moiré blouse. She didn't have the inverse appearance of Rong Hua as rumored, but her skin was very white. She sat on the deep sandalwood. In the colorful hat chair, the agility and beauty that only young people possess become more and more sudden.
It's just that this painting-like scenery was scratched by Rong Qiyi's own sharp voice.
"You said you were so embarrassed that you did nothing to make people listen to you, just to make people laugh."
The last sentence was said with Shen Nanyi focused on it.
Seeing such a gaze, Shen Nanyi slightly raised the corners of her lips, "Jokes or not, they are all set in the family tree anyway, so what's the use of being secretive? Yue Xing'er brings them out to chat, but it's Give it a magnanimous name."
Mrs. Peng became more and more embarrassed as she listened, and secretly retorted that she had asked herself why she had used those tricks on Brother Zhuo earlier, why didn't she ask herself why?
He has a pig's brain, and his mouth looks like swill. He is disgusting when he opens or closes his mouth. If he doesn't seek advice for himself, he will take care of Brother Zhuo and wait for Xiaoniang Rong to give birth to a boy. Where is this house? And a place for her to talk!
Thinking so, Mrs. Peng's expression was still so warm. She scolded Shen Nanyi with "no sense of propriety", then turned her head and smiled apologetically to Mrs. Shen, "It's my fault in giving instructions. Please forgive me, my daughter's family." After all, I am thin-skinned and afraid of being laughed at by outsiders, so since Sister Yi doesn’t want to mention it, just don’t mention it.”
Old Mrs. Shen smiled and narrowed her eyes, "To put it bluntly, we are all a family. If we close the door and whisper, what kind of joke can we make? Besides, what Sister Yi said just now is right, age is a given. If you keep it secretive and can't tell us to go out for a kiss, is it still unresolved with the guillotine on your head?"
These words hit Shen Nanyi's pain. Her face lost color and she just huddled in her seat, hoping that no one would see her kindness.
Unexpectedly, Old Mrs. Yin insisted on dragging her out, "Old sister, what are you so anxious about? Look at me, Sister Yi. I've been in Jiji for about a year, and I haven't told her yet? Look at me. Look, we are not as stable as Mount Tai, so we have to keep calm, maybe the marriage will come that day, right?"
This was said smoothly and without any choice. Old Mrs. Shen didn't say anything while listening. She just coughed in her throat and turned to hold the tea to drink. Her face with crisscrossed grooves suddenly drooped under the lid of the tea.
Speak nicely and keep your mind calm.
Secretly I don't know how anxious I am.
However, if you think about it, you don't have to be angry. Anyway, Shen Nanyi hasn't said anything about getting married now. As long as she stays here, she will have many opportunities to meet the matchmaker's wife in the future. Are you afraid that she won't be able to propose marriage to Sister Yi?
Thinking like this, Mrs. Shen sipped her tea and smiled leisurely, "Sister, you are absolutely right. This marriage is destined by God and cannot be forced. I am getting older now, so how can I take care of this?" , I just want to see them healthy, safe and peaceful."
As he said this, he raised his sleeves and wiped his eyes, "But God is unwilling to let me go. My brother Zhuo got sick, which made me toss and turn in the past few days. No, he came here early in the morning. I want to take a look at my poor grandson, the pregnant and lonely concubine."
She cried sadly, but she didn't howl, which was very emotional.
Shen Nanwan couldn't help but her eyes turned red, "Grandma, please stop talking. If my little girl hears this, she will feel very uncomfortable in her heart."
That's all, she cried harder than Mrs. Shen.
Naturally, Shen Nanbao did not miss Peng's stiff smile and the colorful look on Shen Nanyi's face.
As for Old Mrs. Yin, she has been in business for decades and knows how to reconcile. She weighed the brocade handkerchief to her eyes and just tried to comfort her: "Old sister, listen to what Sister Wan said. Don't cry anymore. It’s not good for Miss Rong to hear this.”
Old Mrs. Shen blew her nose and said, "Sister, you are right, but I can't bear the sleepy yawns and typhoid coughs, let alone this sad thing? Fortunately, Brother Zhuo and the others are not here, otherwise I would have asked them to watch. It really hurts him and makes him sad! "
Shen Nanbao heard Shen Nanyi's sneer from between his teeth and coughed as if to avoid suspicion.
Rong Qiyi, who was sitting in the whirling light and shadow, looked at Shen Nanyi with wide eyes, "Miss, what do you look like? That is your third brother. He suffered a crime and was poisoned, so you are cold. Are you going to look on with a straight face and say something?"
Shen Nanyi sighed regretfully, "You were so blinded by tears that you saw the wrong thing! When did I choke? You already said that was my third brother. How can I not be hurt?"
As for words, they always become more fluent as they are spoken.
As Shen Nanyi spoke, she gained momentum. She had already forgotten all those instructions and guilt. She smiled angrily and raised the corners of her lips, "But, I want to ask my sister, why are you crying so hard?" , why are your eyes moving around? Are you here to look at me? It shows that this sadness is not very sincere!"
Rong Qiyi is Master Rong's wife. She has been pampered since she was a child, and she has developed a domineering temperament that fears no heaven or earth. She will definitely poke a hole in anyone who gets in her way!
Rong Qiyi sneered immediately, "I wanted to give you face, but I didn't make my words clear, but I didn't expect you to be shameless and come to ask me why my eyes were rolling around, why don't you use your wooden ladle?" My head is spinning so much, why don’t I ask questions? Of course I want to see if you are ashamed of the person who harmed my brother! Now that I have seen it, you are not ashamed. If you think about it carefully, Fang Fang, you are still here I'm posing in front of you, so you must not be ashamed. After all, you are the legitimate daughter of the Gaomen Courtyard. You committed a crime, and someone above you took care of it, and you just covered it up with a few words!"
The words were spoken quickly and hatefully, like a rushing wind, which made Shen Nanyi's face turn blue, and she was trembling all over as she sat in her seat, "Who, who told you to talk like this! Where am I? That means..."
In her early years, Mrs. Shen relied on matchmaking to support her family, so she had a clever tongue.
Rong Qiyi has grown up in front of her since she was a child, so she naturally knows the truth. She can praise people to the sky with a few words, and can also make people plow down in the dirt! Seeing that Shen Nanyi couldn't hold her tongue straight, she interrupted her without hesitation.
"So, eldest lady, when you say this, you just admit the bad things you have done. Now that you have admitted it, behave well. Don't let me think that you are too cruel. I am afraid that you will kill people in the future without blinking an eye. !”
Shen Nanyi had to bear such an insult for nothing, and his face was extremely ugly. However, he could not get rid of his mother to clarify, so he could only break his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
Mrs. Peng was listening. Although she didn't curse her at all, she felt as if she had been scolded like this all the time and felt uncomfortable sitting in her seat.
Seeing that the fire was almost done, Old Mrs. Shen stopped being a spectator. She stretched out her handkerchief and blew her nose. She scolded Rong Qiyi: "Hose! You don't want to be flattered at all by having such a big mouth. You should be the one to say these words." Did you say it with your mouth?"
Rong Qiyi murmured. Seeing the sullen look on Mrs. Shen's face, Sansan took the handkerchief to cover her mouth and stopped talking.
Mrs. Shen then turned her head and looked at Mrs. Yin, "Good sister, you have a big heart, and you can carry it off the boat. You have to believe me. I didn't want to come to your door to ask for help like this." After all, Rong Niang married into the Shen family, and she is a member of the Shen family. Who am I qualified to ask, but after all, it is the meat that fell from my stomach. Brother Zhuo is now ill, and Rong Niang is pregnant again. In my heart Worried, I put on such an old face and begged my sister to let me live here so that I can take care of Rong Niang and visit Brother Zhuo smoothly."
Having said that, if you don't agree to it, you really don't want to love her anymore.
When the time comes, you and I will go back and forth, and it will be of no use to the Shen family to have a fight.
What's more, the master has just been promoted to Kaiguozi, and his reinstatement is just a matter of one sentence. He can't stumble at such a critical moment and can only follow the words of Mr. Shen.
Old Mrs. Yin felt uncomfortable. Thinking of the origin of this incident, she felt more and more that Mr. Peng was poking her eyes, but her face was so sad that she took Old Mrs. Shen's hand and patted her.
"Old sister, Brother Zhuo is also my grandson. I watched him grow from the size of a bean sprout to what he is now. How can I not feel sorry for him when he suffered? How can I not feel sorry for you? clear?"
Then he turned his head and called Mother Hu over, "Sweep out the Shuchi courtyard and allocate a few more capable servants for the use of Mrs. Shen and the others."
After giving the instructions, Old Mrs. Yin patted Old Mrs. Shen again and just smiled, "Shuchi courtyard is very close to Rong Xiaoniang's Chenxiang Pavilion and Zhuo Geer's Yanqing Pavilion. If you want to take a look, how many are there?" The walking skills are here, but are you satisfied?"
It would be satisfying to live in Shen Mansion.
Can Mrs. Shen still say no at all?
Shen Nanbao had seen enough of a good show. When he came out of the side hall, the sun was hanging high on the treetops. The fierce golden light shone brightly all over the world. Moving his eyes inward, it could pierce the eyes everywhere. My eyes hurt.
It's better to be in the house, with the curtains down, it's quiet and cool.
Shen Nanbao thought about it, looking at the bronze ice mirror, his expression softened. He finished the last stitch with the help of the skylight filtering through the bamboo strips, tied the knot and asked Fengyue to put it into a black lacquered mother-of-pearl box.
Fengyue was puzzled, "Sister, won't you send someone to the founding Earl's house after you finish the embroidery?"
Shen Nanbao tilted his head, and his slender wrists exposed by the collar were picking out the samples in the paper stack. Hearing Fengyue's words, he glanced over.
"Although I only agreed to her family, if I sent it alone, wouldn't it be a source of gossip in the future? Maybe it's said that I intend to cling to her family, or that I intend to thank my uncle. It doesn't sound good. In this case, it's better to go to each other. Send it to everyone."
